GENERAL MOTORS COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation
General Motors Company (sometimes referred to in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as we, our, us, ourselves, the Company, General Motors or GM) designs, builds and sells cars, trucks, crossovers and automobile parts worldwide. We also provide automotive financing services through General Motors Financial Company, Inc. (GM Financial). We analyze the results of our continuing operations through the following segments: GM North America (GMNA), GM International (GMI), GM Cruise and GM Financial. GM Cruise is our global segment designed to build, grow and invest in our autonomous vehicles business. As a result of the growing importance of our autonomous vehicle operations, we moved these operations from Corporate to GM Cruise and began presenting GM Cruise as a new reportable segment in the three months ended June 30, 2018. All periods presented have been recast to reflect the segment changes. Nonsegment operations and Maven, our ride- and car-sharing business, are classified as Corporate. Corporate includes certain centrally recorded income and costs such as interest, income taxes, corporate expenditures and certain nonsegment specific revenues and expenses.

On July 31, 2017 we closed the sale of the Opel and Vauxhall businesses and certain other assets in Europe (the Opel/Vauxhall Business) to Peugeot, S.A. (PSA Group). On October 31, 2017 we closed the sale of the European financing subsidiaries and branches (the Fincos, and together with the Opel/Vauxhall Business, the European Business) to Banque PSA Finance S.A. and BNP Paribas Personal Finance S.A. The European Business is presented as discontinued operations in our condensed consolidated financial statements for all periods presented. Unless otherwise indicated, information in this report relates to our continuing operations. Refer to Note 19 for additional information on our discontinued operations.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for interim financial information. Accordingly they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, which consist of normal recurring adjustments and transactions or events discretely impacting the interim periods, considered necessary by management to fairly state our results of operations, financial position and cash flows. The operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2017 Form 10-K. Except for per share amounts or as otherwise specified, dollar amounts presented within tables are stated in millions. In the three months ended June 30, 2018 we changed the presentation of our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows to separately classify Depreciation and impairment of Equipment on operating leases, net and Depreciation, amortization and impairment charges on Property, net. We have made corresponding reclassifications to the comparable information for all periods presented.

Principles of Consolidation The Principles of Consolidation supplements information presented in our 2017 Form 10-K for the adoption on January 1, 2018 of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-01, “Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (ASU 2016-01). We consolidate entities that we control due to ownership of a majority voting interest and we consolidate variable interest entities (VIEs) when we have variable interests and are the primary beneficiary. We continually evaluate our involvement with VIEs to determine when these criteria are met. Our share of earnings or losses of nonconsolidated affiliates is included in our consolidated operating results using the equity method of accounting when we are able to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial decisions of the affiliate. Beginning January 1, 2018 we no longer use the cost method of accounting.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

Effective January 1, 2018 we adopted ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" as amended (ASU 2014-09), as incorporated into Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606, on a modified retrospective basis by recognizing a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of Retained earnings. Under ASU 2014-09 sales incentives will now be recorded at the time of sale rather than at the later of sale or announcement, thereby resulting in the shifting of incentive amounts to an earlier quarter and fixed fee license arrangements will now be recognized when access to intellectual property is granted instead of over the contract period. We currently expect the retiming of quarterly incentive amounts to offset for the year ending December 31, 2018. Actual incentive spending is dependent upon future market conditions.

Beginning January 1, 2018 certain transfers to daily rental companies are accounted for as sales when ownership of the vehicle is not expected to transfer back to us. Such transactions were previously accounted for as operating leases. Transfers that occurred prior to January 2018 continue to be accounted for as operating leases because at the original time of transfer an expectation existed that ownership of the vehicle would transfer back to us.

Effective January 1, 2018 we adopted ASU 2016-01, on a modified retrospective basis, with a $182 million cumulative effect adjustment recorded to the opening balance of Retained earnings to adjust an investment previously carried at cost to its fair value. ASU 2016-01 requires equity investments that are not accounted for under the equity method of accounting to be measured at fair value with changes recognized in Net income.

In the three months ended March 31, 2018 we adopted ASU 2017-12, "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities" (ASU 2017-12), on a modified retrospective basis and adopted ASU 2018-02, "Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income” (ASU 2018-02), on a modified retrospective basis. ASU 2018-02 provides the option to reclassify stranded tax effects related to the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the Tax Act) in accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings. The adjustment relates to the change in the U.S. corporate income tax rate. The cumulative effect of the adjustments to the opening balance of Retained earnings for these adopted standards was $108 million.

Effective January 1, 2018 we adopted ASU 2016-15, "Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Payments" (ASU 2016-15), which clarified guidance on the classification of certain cash receipts and payments in the statement of cash flows. The adoption of ASU 2016-15 did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and prior periods were not restated.

Effective January 1, 2018 we adopted ASU 2017-07, "Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715), Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost" (ASU 2017-07) on a retrospective basis, which requires that the service cost component of net periodic pension and other postretirement benefits (OPEB) (income) expense be presented in the same income statement line item as other employee compensation costs. The remaining components of net periodic pension and OPEB (income) expense are now presented outside operating income. Amounts previously reflected in Operating income were reclassified to Interest income and other non-operating income, net in accordance with the provisions of ASU 2017-07. Refer to Note 13 for amounts that were reclassified.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies
The information presented on Revenue Recognition, Equipment on Operating Leases, Marketable Debt Securities, Equity Investments and Derivative Financial Instruments supplements the Significant Accounting Policies information presented in our 2017 Form 10-K for the adoption of our recently adopted accounting standards which became effective January 1, 2018. See our 2017 Form 10-K for a description of our significant accounting policies in effect prior to the adoption of the new accounting standards.

Revenue Recognition We adopted ASU 2014-09, which requires us to recognize revenue when a customer obtains control rather than when we have transferred substantially all risks and rewards of a good or service. We adopted ASU 2014-09 by applying the modified retrospective method to all noncompleted contracts as of the date of adoption. See Note 1 for additional information pertaining to the adoption of ASU 2014-09. The comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. The following accounting policies became effective upon the adoption of ASU 2014-09.

Automotive Automotive net sales and revenue represents the amount of consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for vehicle, parts and accessories and services and other sales. The consideration recognized represents the amount received, typically shortly after the sale to a customer, net of estimated dealer and customer sales incentives we reasonably expect to pay. Significant factors in determining our estimates of incentives include forecasted sales volume, product type, product mix, customer behavior and assumptions concerning market conditions. Historical experience is also considered when establishing our future expectations. Subsequent adjustments to incentive estimates are possible as facts and circumstances change over time. When our customers have a right to return eligible parts and accessories, we consider the returns in our estimation of the transaction price. A portion of the consideration received is deferred for separate performance obligations, such as maintenance and vehicle connectivity, that will be provided to our customers at a future date. Taxes assessed by various government entities, such as sales, use and value-added taxes, collected at the time of the vehicle sale are excluded from Automotive net sales and revenue. Shipping and handling activities that occur after control of the vehicle transfers to the dealer are recognized at the time of sale and presented in Automotive and other cost of sales.

GENERAL MOTORS COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS —— (Continued)

Vehicle, Parts and Accessories For the majority of vehicle and accessories sales our customers obtain control and we recognize revenue when the vehicle transfers to the dealer, which generally occurs when the vehicle is released to the carrier responsible for transporting it to a dealer. Revenue, net of estimated returns, is recognized on the sale of parts upon delivery to the customer.

Certain transfers to daily rental companies are accounted for as sales, with revenue recognized at the time of transfer. Such transactions were previously accounted for as operating leases. At the time of transfer, we defer revenue for remarketing obligations, record a residual value guarantee and reflect a deposit liability for amounts expected to be returned once the remarketing services are complete. Deferred revenue is recognized in earnings upon completion of the remarketing service. Transfers that occurred prior to January 1, 2018 and future transfers containing a substantive purchase obligation continue to be accounted for as operating leases and rental income is recognized over the estimated term of the lease.

Used Vehicles Proceeds from the auction of vehicles returned from daily rental car companies are recognized in Automotive net sales and revenue upon transfer of control of the vehicle to the customer and the related vehicle carrying value is recognized in Automotive and other cost of sales.

Services and Other Services and other revenue primarily consists of revenue from vehicle-related service arrangements and after-sale services such as maintenance, vehicle connectivity and extended service warranties. For those service arrangements that are bundled with a vehicle sale, a portion of the revenue from the sale is allocated to the service component and recognized as deferred revenue within Accrued liabilities or Other liabilities. We recognize revenue for bundled services and services sold separately as services are performed, typically over a period of less than three years.

Automotive Financing - GM Financial Finance charge income earned on receivables is recognized using the effective interest method. Fees and commissions (including incentive payments) received and direct costs of originating loans are deferred and amortized over the term of the related finance receivables using the effective interest method and are removed from the condensed consolidated balance sheets when the related finance receivables are sold, charged off or paid in full. Accrual of finance charge income on retail finance receivables is generally suspended on accounts that are more than 60 days delinquent, accounts in bankruptcy and accounts in repossession. Payments received on nonaccrual loans are first applied to any fees due, then to any interest due and then any remaining amounts are recorded to principal. Interest accrual generally resumes once an account has received payments bringing the delinquency to less than 60 days past due. Accrual of finance charge income on commercial finance receivables is generally suspended on accounts that are more than 90 days delinquent, upon receipt of a bankruptcy notice from a borrower, or where reasonable doubt exists about the full collectability of contractually agreed upon principal and interest. Payments received on nonaccrual loans are first applied to principal. Interest accrual resumes once an account has received payments bringing the account fully current and collection of contractual principal and interest is reasonably assured (including amounts previously charged off).

Income from operating lease assets, which includes lease origination fees, net of lease origination costs and incentives, is recorded as operating lease revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease agreement.

Equipment on Operating Leases Equipment on operating leases, net consists of vehicle leases to retail customers with lease terms of two to five years and vehicle sales to rental car companies that are expected to be repurchased in an average of seven months. We are exposed to changes in the residual values of these assets. The residual values represent estimates of the values of the leased vehicles at the end of the lease contracts and are determined based on forecasted auction proceeds when there is a reliable basis to make such a determination. Realization of the residual values is dependent on the future ability to market the vehicles under prevailing market conditions. The adequacy of the estimate of the residual value is evaluated over the life of the arrangement and adjustments may be made to the extent the expected value of the vehicle changes. Adjustments may be in the form of revisions to the depreciation rate or recognition of an impairment charge. Impairment is determined to exist if an impairment indicator exists and the expected future cash flows, which include estimated residual values, are lower than the carrying amount of the vehicle's asset group. If the carrying amount is considered impaired an impairment charge is recorded for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds fair value of the vehicle's asset group. Fair value is determined primarily using the anticipated cash flows, including estimated residual values. In our automotive finance operations when a leased vehicle is returned or repossessed the asset is recorded in Other assets at the lower of cost or estimated selling price, less costs to sell. Upon disposition a gain or loss is recorded in GM Financial interest, operating and other expenses for any difference between the net book value of the leased asset and the proceeds from the disposition of the asset.

Marketable Debt Securities We classify marketable debt securities as either available-for-sale or trading. Various factors, including turnover of holdings and investment guidelines, are considered in determining the classification of securities. Available-for-sale debt securities are recorded at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recorded net of related income taxes in Accumulated

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS —— (Continued)

other comprehensive loss until realized. Trading debt securities are recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in Interest income and other non-operating income, net. We determine realized gains and losses for all debt securities using the specific identification method.

We measure the fair value of our marketable debt securities using a market approach where identical or comparable prices are available and an income approach in other cases. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values of securities are determined using prices from a pricing service, pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or discounted cash flow models. These prices represent non-binding quotes. Our pricing service utilizes industry-standard pricing models that consider various inputs. We conduct an annual review of our pricing service and believe the prices received from our pricing service are a reliable representation of exit prices.

An evaluation is made quarterly to determine if unrealized losses related to non-trading investments in debt securities are other-than-temporary. Factors considered include the length of time and extent to which the fair value has been below cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer and the intent to sell or likelihood to be forced to sell the debt security before any anticipated recovery.

Equity Investments When events and circumstances warrant, equity investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting are evaluated for impairment. An impairment charge is recorded whenever a decline in value of an equity investment below its carrying amount is determined to be other-than-temporary. Impairment charges related to equity method investments are recorded in Equity income. Equity investments that are not accounted for under the equity method of accounting are measured at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in Interest income and other non-operating income, net.

Derivative Financial Instruments The following changes to our accounting policies became effective upon adoption of ASU 2017-12.

Automotive Certain foreign currency and commodity forward contracts have been designated as cash flow hedges. The risk being hedged is the foreign currency and commodity price risk related to forecasted transactions. If the contract has been designated as a cash flow hedge, the change in the fair value of the cash flow hedge is deferred in Accumulated other comprehensive loss and is recognized in Automotive and other cost of sales along with the earnings effect of the hedged item when the hedged item affects earnings.

Automotive Financing - GM Financial Certain interest rate swap and foreign currency swap agreements have been designated as cash flow hedges. The risk being hedged is the foreign currency and interest rate risk related to forecasted transactions. If the contract has been designated as a cash flow hedge, the change in the fair value of the cash flow hedge is deferred in Accumulated other comprehensive loss and is recognized in GM Financial interest, operating and other expenses along with the earnings effect of the hedged item when the hedged item affects earnings. Changes in the fair value of amounts excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recorded currently in earnings and are presented in the same income statement line as the earnings effect of the hedged item.

Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. Adjustments to sales incentives for previously recognized sales decreased revenue by $482 million and $628 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.

Deferred revenue consists primarily of maintenance, extended warranty and other service contracts. We recognized revenue of $402 million and $785 million related to previously deferred revenue during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. We expect to recognize revenue of $845 million in the six months ending December 31, 2018 and $885 million, $450 million and $569 million in the years ending December 31, 2019, 2020 and thereafter related to deferred revenue as of June 30, 2018.

We estimate the fair value of retail finance receivables using observable and unobservable Level 3 inputs within a cash flow model. The inputs reflect assumptions regarding expected prepayments, deferrals, delinquencies, recoveries and charge-offs of the loans within the portfolio. The cash flow model produces an estimated amortization schedule of the finance receivables. The projected cash flows are then discounted to derive the fair value of the portfolio. Macroeconomic factors could affect the credit performance of the portfolio and therefore could potentially affect the assumptions used in our cash flow model. A substantial majority of our commercial finance receivables have variable interest rates. The carrying amount, a Level 2 input, is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value.

The allowance for loan losses on retail and commercial finance receivables included a collective allowance of $560 million and $611 million and a specific allowance of $313 million and $331 million at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

Retail Finance Receivables We use proprietary scoring systems in the underwriting process that measure the credit quality of retail finance receivables using several factors, such as credit bureau information, consumer credit risk scores (e.g. FICO score or its equivalent) and contract characteristics. We also consider other factors such as employment history, financial stability and capacity to pay. Subsequent to origination we review the credit quality of retail finance receivables based on customer payment activity. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, 29% and 33% of retail finance receivables were from consumers with sub-prime credit scores, which are defined as FICO scores or equivalent scores of less than 620 at the time of loan origination.

An account is considered delinquent if a substantial portion of a scheduled payment has not been received by the date the payment was contractually due. The accrual of finance charge income had been suspended on delinquent retail finance receivables with contractual amounts due of $822 million and $778 million at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. The following table summarizes the contractual amount of delinquent retail finance receivables, which is not significantly different than the recorded investment of the retail finance receivables:

Commercial Finance Receivables Our commercial finance receivables consist of dealer financings, primarily for inventory purchases. A proprietary model is used to assign a risk rating to each dealer. We perform periodic credit reviews of each dealership and adjust the dealership's risk rating, if necessary. Dealers in Group VI are subject to additional restrictions on funding, including suspension of lines of credit and liquidation of assets. The commercial finance receivables on non-accrual status were insignificant at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. The following table summarizes the credit risk profile by dealer risk rating of the commercial finance receivables:

Note 9. Variable Interest Entities
GM Financial uses special purpose entities (SPEs) that are considered VIEs to issue variable funding notes to third party bank-sponsored warehouse facilities or asset-backed securities to investors in securitization transactions. The debt issued by these VIEs is backed by finance receivables and leasing related assets transferred to the VIEs (Securitized Assets). GM Financial determined that it is the primary beneficiary of the SPEs because the servicing responsibilities for the Securitized Assets give GM Financial the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the performance of the VIEs and the variable interests in the VIEs give GM Financial the obligation to absorb losses and the right to receive residual returns that could potentially be significant. The assets serve as the sole source of repayment for the debt issued by these entities. Investors in the notes issued by the VIEs do not have recourse to GM Financial or its other assets, with the exception of customary representation and warranty repurchase provisions and indemnities that GM Financial provides as the servicer. GM Financial is not required and does not currently intend to provide additional financial support to these SPEs. While these subsidiaries are included in GM Financial's condensed consolidated financial statements, they are separate legal entities and their assets are legally owned by them and are not available to GM Financial's creditors. The following table summarizes the assets and liabilities related to GM Financial's consolidated VIEs:

The fair value of automotive debt measured utilizing Level 1 inputs was based on quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments that a market participant can access at the measurement date. The fair value of automotive debt measured utilizing Level 2 inputs was based on a discounted cash flow model using observable inputs. This model utilizes observable inputs such as contractual repayment terms and benchmark yield curves, plus a spread based on our senior unsecured notes that is intended to represent our nonperformance risk. We obtain the benchmark yield curves and yields on unsecured notes from independent sources

that are widely used in the financial industry. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 the fair value of automotive debt exceeded its carrying amount due primarily to a decrease in bond yields compared to yields at the time of issuance.

In the three months ended March 31, 2018 we borrowed $1.3 billion from SAIC General Motors Corp., Ltd. (SGM) pursuant to a short-term unsecured note payable that we repaid in June 2018. In the three months ended June 30, 2018 we received dividends of $2.0 billion from our Automotive China JVs.

In April 2018 we amended and restated our two existing revolving credit facilities and entered into a third facility, increasing our aggregate borrowing capacity from $14.5 billion to $16.5 billion. These facilities consist of a 364-day, $2.0 billion facility, a three-year, $4.0 billion facility and a five-year, $10.5 billion facility. The facilities are available to us as well as certain wholly owned subsidiaries, including GM Financial. The three-year, $4.0 billion facility allows for borrowings in U.S. Dollars and other currencies and includes a letter of credit sub-facility of $1.1 billion. The five-year, $10.5 billion facility allows for borrowings in U.S. Dollars and other currencies. The 364-day, $2.0 billion facility allows for borrowing in U.S. Dollars only. We have allocated the 364-day, $2.0 billion facility for exclusive use by GM Financial.

The fair value of GM Financial debt measured utilizing Level 2 inputs was based on quoted market prices for identical instruments and if unavailable, quoted market prices of similar instruments. For debt with original maturity or revolving period of 18 months or less par value is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value. The fair value of GM Financial debt measured utilizing Level 3 inputs was based on the discounted future net cash flows expected to be settled using current risk-adjusted rates.

Secured debt consists of revolving credit facilities and securitization notes payable. Most of the secured debt was issued by VIEs and is repayable only from proceeds related to the underlying pledged assets. Refer to Note 9 for additional information on GM Financial's involvement with VIEs. In the six months ended June 30, 2018 GM Financial entered into new or renewed credit facilities with a total net additional borrowing capacity of $161 million, which had substantially the same terms as existing debt and GM Financial issued $10.3 billion in aggregate principal amount of securitization notes payable with an initial weighted average interest rate of 2.81% and maturity dates ranging from 2022 to 2025.

Unsecured debt consists of senior notes, credit facilities and other unsecured debt. In the six months ended June 30, 2018 GM Financial issued $7.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of senior notes with an initial weighted average interest rate of 3.12% and maturity dates ranging from 2021 to 2028.

Each of the revolving credit facilities and the indentures governing GM Financial's notes contain terms and covenants including limitations on GM Financial's ability to incur certain liens.

GENERAL MOTORS COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS —— (Continued)

Litigation-Related Liability and Tax Administrative Matters In the normal course of our business, we are named from time to time as a defendant in various legal actions, including arbitrations, class actions and other litigation. We identify below the material individual proceedings and investigations where we believe a material loss is reasonably possible or probable. We accrue for matters when we believe that losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 we had accruals of $932 million and $930 million in Accrued liabilities and Other liabilities. In many matters, it is inherently difficult to determine whether loss is probable or reasonably possible or to estimate the size or range of the possible loss. Accordingly adverse outcomes from such proceedings could exceed the amounts accrued by an amount that could be material to our results of operations or cash flows in any particular reporting period.

Proceedings Related to Ignition Switch Recall and Other Recalls In 2014 we announced various recalls relating to safety and other matters. Those recalls included recalls to repair ignition switches that could under certain circumstances unintentionally move from the “run” position to the “accessory” or “off” position with a corresponding loss of power, which could in turn prevent airbags from deploying in the event of a crash.

Economic-Loss Claims We are aware of over 100 putative class actions pending against GM in U.S. and Canadian courts alleging that consumers who purchased or leased vehicles manufactured by GM or Motors Liquidation Company (formerly known as General Motors Corporation) had been economically harmed by one or more of the 2014 recalls and/or the underlying vehicle conditions associated with those recalls (economic-loss cases). In general, these economic-loss cases seek recovery for purported compensatory damages, such as alleged benefit-of-the-bargain damages or damages related to alleged diminution in value of the vehicles, as well as punitive damages, injunctive relief and other relief.

Many of the pending U.S. economic-loss claims have been transferred to, and consolidated in, a single federal court, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York (Southern District). These plaintiffs have asserted economic-loss claims under federal and state laws, including claims relating to recalled vehicles manufactured by GM and claims asserting successor liability relating to certain recalled vehicles manufactured by Motors Liquidation Company. The Southern District has dismissed various of these claims, including claims under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization Act, claims for recovery for alleged reduction in the value of plaintiffs' vehicles due to damage to GM’s reputation and brand as a result of the ignition switch matter, and claims of certain plaintiffs who purchased a vehicle before GM came into existence in July 2009. The Southern District also dismissed certain state law claims at issue.

In August 2017 the Southern District granted our motion to dismiss the successor liability claims of plaintiffs in seven of the sixteen states at issue on the motion and called for additional briefing to decide whether plaintiffs' claims can proceed in the other nine states. In December 2017 the Southern District granted GM's motion and dismissed successor liability claims of plaintiffs in an additional state, but found that there are genuine issues of material fact that prevent summary judgment for GM in eight other states. In January 2018, GM moved for reconsideration of certain portions of the Southern District's December 2017 summary judgment ruling. That motion was granted in April 2018, dismissing plaintiffs' successor liability claims in any state where New York law applies.

Personal Injury Claims We also are aware of several hundred actions pending in various courts in the U.S. and Canada alleging injury or death as a result of defects that may be the subject of the 2014 recalls (personal injury cases). In general, these cases seek recovery for purported compensatory damages, punitive damages and other relief. Since 2016, several bellwether trials of personal injury cases have taken place in the Southern District and in a Texas state court, which is administering a Texas state multi-district litigation (MDL). None of these trials resulted in a finding of liability against GM. We are currently preparing for two additional bellwether trials in the Southern District MDL.

Appellate Litigation Regarding Successor Liability Ignition Switch In 2016, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit held that the 2009 order of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (Bankruptcy Court) approving the sale of substantially all of the assets of Motors Liquidation Company to GM free and clear of, among other things, claims asserting successor liability for obligations owed by Motors Liquidation Company (successor liability claims) could not be enforced to bar claims against GM asserted by either plaintiffs who purchased used vehicles after the sale or against purchasers who asserted claims relating to the ignition switch defect, including pre-sale personal injury claims and economic-loss claims.

Contingently Issuable Shares  Under the Amended and Restated Master Sale and Purchase Agreement between us and Motors Liquidation Company GM may be obligated to issue additional shares (Adjustment Shares) of our common stock if allowed general unsecured claims against the Motors Liquidation Company GUC Trust (GUC Trust), as estimated by the Bankruptcy Court, exceed $35.0 billion. The maximum number of Adjustment Shares issuable is 30 million shares (subject to adjustment to take into account stock dividends, stock splits and other transactions), which amounts to approximately $1.2 billion based on the GM share price

as of July 13, 2018. The GUC Trust stated in public filings that allowed general unsecured claims were approximately $31.9 billion as of March 31, 2018. In 2016 and 2017 certain personal injury and economic loss plaintiffs filed motions in the Bankruptcy Court seeking authority to file late claims against the GUC Trust. In May 2018, the GUC Trust filed motions seeking the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of a proposed settlement with certain personal injury and economic loss plaintiffs, approval of a notice relating to that proposed settlement and estimation of alleged personal injury and economic loss late claims for the purpose of obtaining an order requiring GM to issue the maximum number of Adjustment Shares. GM is vigorously contesting each of these motions. If the proposed settlement is approved and an estimation order is obtained for the aggregate amounts sought by the GUC Trust and certain plaintiffs, then GM may be required to issue Adjustment Shares to the GUC Trust. We are currently unable to estimate any reasonably possible loss or range of loss that may result from this matter.

Securities and Derivative Matters In a putative shareholder class action filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan (Eastern District) on behalf of purchasers of our common stock from November 17, 2010 to July 24, 2014, the lead plaintiff alleged that GM and several current and former officers and employees made material misstatements and omissions relating to problems with the ignition switch and other matters in SEC filings and other public statements. In 2016 the Eastern District entered a judgment approving a class-wide settlement of the class action for $300 million. One shareholder filed an appeal of the decision approving the settlement. The United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit affirmed the judgment approving the settlement in November 2017. The objector subsequently filed petitions for rehearing and for en banc review before the entire Sixth Circuit. Both of those petitions were denied. The objector has since filed a petition seeking appellate review by the U.S. Supreme Court.

In the three months ended June 30, 2018, four shareholder derivative actions against certain current and former GM directors and officers were dismissed.

Government Matters In connection with the 2014 recalls, we have from time to time received subpoenas and other requests for information related to investigations by agencies or other representatives of U.S. federal, state and the Canadian governments. In March 2018, we conclusively resolved a civil action initiated by the Arizona Attorney General. GM is cooperating with all reasonable pending requests for information. Any existing governmental matters or investigations could in the future result in the imposition of damages, fines, civil consent orders, civil and criminal penalties or other remedies.

Deferred Prosecution Agreement In September 2015, GM entered into the Deferred Prosecution Agreement (DPA) with the U.S. Attorney's Office of the Southern District of New York (U.S. Attorney's Office) regarding its investigation of the events leading up to certain recalls regarding faulty ignition switches.

Pursuant to the DPA we paid the United States $900 million as a financial penalty, and we agreed to retain an independent monitor to review and assess our policies, practices or procedures related to statements about motor vehicle safety, the provision of information to those responsible for recall decisions, recall processes and addressing known defects in certified pre-owned vehicles. In addition, the U.S. Attorney's Office agreed to recommend to the Southern District that prosecution of GM on a two-count information (the Information) filed in the Southern District be deferred for three years. The U.S. Attorney's Office also agreed that if we are in compliance with all of our obligations under the DPA, the U.S. Attorney's Office will, within 30 days after the expiration of the period of deferral (including any extensions thereto), seek dismissal with prejudice of the Information. For a further description of the terms and conditions of the DPA refer to Note 17 of our 2017 Form 10-K.

The total amount accrued for the 2014 recalls at June 30, 2018 reflects amounts for a combination of settled but unpaid matters, and for the remaining unsettled investigations, claims and/or lawsuits relating to the ignition switch recalls and other related recalls to the extent that such matters are probable and can be reasonably estimated. The amounts accrued for those unsettled investigations, claims, and/or lawsuits represent a combination of our best single point estimates where determinable and, where no such single point estimate is determinable, our estimate of the low end of the range of probable loss with regard to such matters, if that is determinable. We believe it is probable that we will incur additional liabilities beyond what has already been accrued for at least a portion of the remaining matters, whether through settlement or judgment; however, we are currently unable to estimate an overall amount or range of loss because these matters involve significant uncertainties, including the legal theory or the nature of the investigations, claims and/or lawsuits, the complexity of the facts, the lack of documentation available to us with respect to particular cases or groups of cases, the results of any investigation or litigation and the timing of resolution of the investigation or litigations, including any appeals. We will continue to consider resolution of pending matters involving ignition switch recalls and other recalls where it makes sense to do so.

GM Korea Wage Litigation GM Korea is party to litigation with current and former hourly employees in the appellate court and Incheon District Court in Incheon, Korea. The group actions, which in the aggregate involve more than 10,000 employees,

19


Table of Contents
GENERAL MOTORS COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS —— (Continued)

allege that GM Korea failed to include bonuses and certain allowances in its calculation of Ordinary Wages due under Korean regulations. In 2012 the Seoul High Court (an intermediate level appellate court) affirmed a decision in one of these group actions involving five GM Korea employees which was contrary to GM Korea's position. GM Korea appealed to the Supreme Court of the Republic of Korea (Supreme Court). In 2014, the Supreme Court largely agreed with GM’s legal arguments and remanded the case to the Seoul High Court for consideration consistent with earlier Supreme Court precedent holding that while fixed bonuses should be included in the calculation of Ordinary Wages, claims for retroactive application of this rule would be barred under certain circumstances. In 2015, on reconsideration, the Seoul High Court held in GM Korea’s favor, after which the plaintiffs appealed to the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court has not yet rendered a decision. We estimate our reasonably possible loss in excess of amounts accrued to be approximately $570 million at June 30, 2018. Both the scope of claims asserted and GM Korea's assessment of any or all of the individual claim elements may change if new information becomes available or the legal or regulatory framework change.
 
GM Korea is also party to litigation with current and former salaried employees over allegations relating to ordinary wages regulation and whether to include fixed bonuses in the calculation of ordinary wages. In 2017, the Seoul High Court held that certain workers are not barred from filing retroactive wage claims. GM Korea appealed this ruling to the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court has not yet rendered a decision. We estimate our reasonably possible loss in excess of amounts accrued to be approximately $160 million at June 30, 2018. Both the scope of claims asserted and GM Korea's assessment of any or all of the individual claim elements may change if new information becomes available or the legal or regulatory framework change.

GM Korea is also party to litigation with current and former subcontract workers over allegations that they are entitled to the same wages and benefits provided to full-time employees, and to be hired as full-time employees. In May 2018 the Korean government issued an adverse ruling finding that GM Korea must hire certain current subcontract workers as full-time employees. GM Korea intends to appeal that decision. At June 30, 2018, we recorded an insignificant accrual covering certain asserted claims and claims that we believe are probable of assertion and for which liability is probable. We estimate that the reasonably possible loss in excess of amounts accrued for other current subcontract workers who may assert similar claims to be approximately $150 million at June 30, 2018. We are currently unable to estimate any possible loss or range of loss that may result from additional claims that may be asserted by former subcontract workers.

GM Brazil Indirect Tax Claim In March 2017 the Supreme Court of Brazil issued a decision concluding that a certain state value added tax should not be included in the calculation of federal gross receipts taxes. The decision reduces GM Brazil’s gross receipts tax prospectively and, potentially, retrospectively. The retrospective right to recover is under judicial review. If the Supreme Court of Brazil grants retrospective recovery, we estimate potential recoveries of up to $1.2 billion. However, given the remaining uncertainty regarding the ultimate judicial resolution of this matter we are unable to assess the likelihood of any favorable outcome at this time. We have not recorded any amounts relating to the retrospective nature of this matter.

Other Litigation-Related Liability and Tax Administrative Matters Various other legal actions, including class actions, governmental investigations, claims and proceedings are pending against us or our related companies or joint ventures, including matters arising out of alleged product defects; employment-related matters; product and workplace safety, vehicle emissions, including CO2 and nitrogen oxide, fuel economy, and related governmental regulations; product warranties; financial services; dealer, supplier and other contractual relationships; government regulations relating to payments to foreign companies; government regulations relating to competition issues; tax-related matters not subject to the provision of ASC 740, Income Taxes (indirect tax-related matters); product design, manufacture and performance; consumer protection laws; and environmental protection laws, including laws regulating air emissions, water discharges, waste management and environmental remediation.

There are several putative class actions pending against GM in federal courts in the U.S. and in the Provincial Courts in Canada alleging that various vehicles sold including model year 2011-2016 Duramax Diesel Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra vehicles, violate federal and state emission standards. GM has also faced a series of additional lawsuits based primarily on allegations in the Duramax suit, including putative shareholder class actions claiming violations of federal securities law and a shareholder demand lawsuit. The securities lawsuits have been voluntarily dismissed. At this stage of these proceedings, we are unable to provide an evaluation of the likelihood that a loss will be incurred or an estimate of the amounts or range of possible loss.

We believe that appropriate accruals have been established for losses that are probable and can be reasonably estimated. It is possible that the resolution of one or more of these matters could exceed the amounts accrued in an amount that could be material to our results of operations. We also from time to time receive subpoenas and other inquiries or requests for information from agencies or other representatives of U.S. federal, state and foreign governments on a variety of issues.

Indirect tax-related matters are being litigated globally pertaining to value added taxes, customs, duties, sales, property taxes and other non-income tax related tax exposures. The various non-U.S. labor-related matters include claims from current and former employees related to alleged unpaid wage, benefit, severance and other compensation matters. Certain administrative proceedings are indirect tax-related and may require that we deposit funds in escrow or provide an alternative form of security which may range from $250 million to $550 million at June 30, 2018. Some of the matters may involve compensatory, punitive or other treble damage claims, environmental remediation programs or sanctions that, if granted, could require us to pay damages or make other expenditures in amounts that could not be reasonably estimated at June 30, 2018. We believe that appropriate accruals have been established for losses that are probable and can be reasonably estimated. For indirect tax-related matters we estimate our reasonably possible loss in excess of amounts accrued to be up to approximately $1.0 billion at June 30, 2018.

Takata Matters In May 2016 the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) issued an amended consent order requiring Takata to file defect information reports (DIRs) for previously unrecalled front airbag inflators that contain phased-stabilized ammonium nitrate-based propellant without a moisture absorbing desiccant on a multi-year, risk-based schedule through 2019 impacting tens of millions of vehicles produced by numerous automotive manufacturers. NHTSA concluded that the likely root cause of the rupturing of the airbag inflators is a function of time, temperature cycling and environmental moisture.

Although we do not believe there is a safety defect at this time in any unrecalled GM vehicles within scope of the Takata DIRs, in cooperation with NHTSA we have filed Preliminary DIRs covering certain of our GMT900 vehicles, which are full-size pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles (SUVs). We have also filed petitions for inconsequentiality with respect to the vehicles subject to those Preliminary DIRs. NHTSA has consolidated our petitions and will rule on them at the same time.

While these petitions have been pending, we have provided NHTSA with the results of our long-term studies and the studies performed by third-party experts, all of which form the basis for our determination that the inflators in these vehicles do not present an unreasonable risk to safety and that no repair should ultimately be required.

We believe these vehicles are currently performing as designed and ongoing testing continues to support the belief that the vehicles' unique design and integration mitigates against inflator propellant degradation and rupture risk. For example, the airbag inflators used in the vehicles are a variant engineered specifically for our vehicles, and include features such as greater venting, unique propellant wafer configurations, and machined steel end caps. The inflators are packaged in the instrument panel in such a way as to minimize exposure to moisture from the climate control system. Also, these vehicles have features that minimize the maximum temperature to which the inflator will be exposed, such as larger interior volumes and standard solar absorbing windshields and side glass.

Accordingly, no warranty provision has been made for any repair associated with our vehicles subject to the Preliminary DIRs and amended consent order. However, in the event we are ultimately obligated to repair the vehicles subject to current or future Takata DIRs under the amended consent order in the U.S., we estimate a reasonably possible impact to GM of approximately $1.0 billion.
GM is engaged in discussions with regulators outside the U.S. with respect to Takata inflators. There are significant differences in vehicle and inflator design between the relevant vehicles sold internationally and those sold in the U.S. We continue to gather and analyze evidence about these inflators and to share our findings with regulators. We were required to recall certain vehicles sold outside of the U.S. in the three months ended March 31, 2018 to replace Takata inflators in these vehicles. Additional recalls, if any, could be material to our results of operations and cash flows. We continue to monitor the international situation.
Through July 19, 2018 we are aware of three putative class actions pending against GM in federal court in the U.S., one putative class action in Mexico and three putative class actions pending in various Provincial Courts in Canada arising out of allegations that airbag inflators manufactured by Takata are defective. At this early stage of these proceedings, we are unable to provide an evaluation of the likelihood that a loss will be incurred or an estimate of the amounts or range of possible loss.

Product Liability With respect to product liability claims (other than claims relating to the ignition switch recalls discussed above) involving our and General Motors Corporation products, we believe that any judgment against us for actual damages will be adequately covered by our recorded accruals and, where applicable, excess liability insurance coverage. In addition we indemnify dealers for certain product liability related claims including products sold by General Motors Corporation's dealers. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 liabilities of $561 million and $595 million were recorded in Accrued liabilities and Other liabilities for the expected cost of all known product liability claims plus an estimate of the expected cost for product liability claims that have already been incurred and are expected to be filed in the future for which we are self-insured. It is reasonably possible that

21


Table of Contents
GENERAL MOTORS COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS —— (Continued)

our accruals for product liability claims may increase in future periods in material amounts, although we cannot estimate a reasonable range of incremental loss based on currently available information.

Guarantees We enter into indemnification agreements for liability claims involving products manufactured primarily by certain joint ventures. These guarantees terminate in years ranging from 2018 to 2032 or upon the occurrence of specific events or are ongoing. We believe that the related potential costs incurred are adequately covered and our recorded accruals are insignificant. The maximum liability, calculated as future undiscounted payments, was $5.5 billion and $5.1 billion for these guarantees at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the majority of which relate to the indemnification agreements.

We provide vehicle repurchase guarantees and payment guarantees on commercial loans outstanding with third parties such as dealers. In some instances certain assets of the party whose debt or performance we have guaranteed may offset, to some degree, the amount of certain guarantees. Our payables to the party whose debt or performance we have guaranteed may also reduce the amount of certain guarantees. If vehicles are required to be repurchased under vehicle repurchase obligations, the total exposure would be reduced to the extent vehicles are able to be resold to another dealer.

We periodically enter into agreements that incorporate indemnification provisions in the normal course of business. It is not possible to estimate our maximum exposure under these indemnifications or guarantees due to the conditional nature of these obligations. Insignificant amounts have been recorded for such obligations as the majority of them are not probable or estimable at this time and the fair value of the guarantees at issuance was insignificant. Refer to Note 19 for additional information on our indemnification obligations to PSA Group under the Agreement.

Note 15. Income Taxes
For interim income tax reporting we estimate our annual effective tax rate and apply it to our year to date ordinary income (loss). Tax jurisdictions with a projected or year to date loss for which a tax benefit cannot be realized are excluded. The tax effects of unusual or infrequently occurring items, including changes in judgment about valuation allowances and effects of changes in tax laws or rates, are reported in the interim period in which they occur. We have open tax years from 2008 to 2017 with various significant tax jurisdictions.

In the three months ended June 30, 2018 Income tax expense of $519 million primarily resulted from tax expense attributable to entities included in our effective tax rate calculation. We settled a transfer pricing tax matter and reduced our gross uncertain tax positions by $412 million. Adequate reserves had been previously established and as a result, no tax expense or benefit was recognized as a result of this settlement. In the three months ended June 30, 2017 Income tax expense of $534 million primarily resulted from tax expense attributable to entities included in our effective tax rate calculation of $621 million including tax benefits from foreign dividends.

In the six months ended June 30, 2018 Income tax expense of $985 million primarily resulted from tax expense attributable to entities included in our effective tax rate calculation. In the six months ended June 30, 2017 Income tax expense of $1.3 billion primarily resulted from tax expense attributable to entities included in our effective tax rate calculation of $1.5 billion including tax benefits from foreign dividends, partially offset by tax benefits related to tax settlements.

At June 30, 2018 we had $22.5 billion of net deferred tax assets consisting of net operating losses and income tax credits, capitalized research expenditures and other timing differences that are available to offset future income tax liabilities, partially offset by valuation allowances.

We have $3.3 billion of net operating loss carryforwards in Germany that, as a result of reorganizations that took place in 2008 and 2009, are not currently recorded as deferred tax assets. As a result of a final European court decision in June 2018 and subject to final German statutory approval, we anticipate that these loss carryforwards may become available to reduce future taxable income in Germany. If this were to occur, deferred tax assets totaling $1.0 billion would be established for the loss carryforwards, and offsetting valuation allowances would also be established because the deferred tax assets would not meet the more likely than not realizability standard.

The Tax Act was signed into law on December 22, 2017. The Tax Act changed many aspects of U.S. corporate income taxation and included reduction of the corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, implementation of a territorial tax system and imposition of a tax on deemed repatriated earnings of foreign subsidiaries. We recognized the tax effects of the Tax Act in the three months ended December 31, 2017 and recorded $7.3 billion in tax expense. The tax expense relates almost entirely to the remeasurement of deferred tax assets to the 21% tax rate. Upon completion of our 2017 U.S. income tax return later in 2018 we may identify

22

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS —— (Continued)

additional remeasurement adjustments to our recorded deferred tax assets. We will continue to assess our provision for income taxes as future guidance is issued but do not currently anticipate significant revisions will be necessary. Any such revisions will be treated in accordance with the measurement period guidance outlined in Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118.

Note 16. Restructuring and Other Initiatives
We have executed various restructuring and other initiatives and we may execute additional initiatives in the future, if necessary, to streamline manufacturing capacity and other costs to improve the utilization of remaining facilities. To the extent these programs involve voluntary separations, no liabilities are generally recorded until offers to employees are accepted. If employees are involuntarily terminated, a liability is generally recorded at the communication date. Related charges are recorded in Automotive and other cost of sales and Automotive and other selling, general and administrative expense. The following table summarizes the reserves and charges related to restructuring and other initiatives, including postemployment benefit reserves and charges:

In the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 restructuring and other initiatives primarily included the closure of a facility and other restructuring actions in Korea. We recorded charges of $132 million and $1.0 billion in Korea in GMI, net of noncontrolling interests in the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. These charges consisted of $73 million primarily in supplier claims and $537 million in non-cash asset impairments and other charges, not reflected in the table above, and $59 million and $495 million in employee separation charges, which are reflected in the table above, in the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. We incurred $676 million in cash outflows resulting from these Korea restructuring actions for employee separations and statutory pension payments in the six months ended June 30, 2018 and we expect to incur approximately $200 million of additional cash outflows, primarily for supplier claims and statutory pension payments in the six months ending December 31, 2018.

In the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 restructuring and other initiatives primarily included restructuring actions announced in the three months ended June 30, 2017 in GMI. These actions related primarily to the withdrawal of Chevrolet from the Indian and South African markets at the end of 2017 and the transition of our South Africa manufacturing operations to Isuzu Motors. We continue to manufacture vehicles in India for sale to certain export markets. We recorded charges of $460 million in GMI in the three months ended June 30, 2017, primarily consisting of $297 million of asset impairments, sale incentives, inventory provisions and other charges, not reflected in the table above, and $163 million of dealer restructurings, employee separations and other contract cancellation costs, which are reflected in the table above. We completed these programs in GMI in 2017. Other GMI restructuring programs reflected in the table above include separation and other programs in Australia, Korea and India and the withdrawal of the Chevrolet brand from Europe. Collectively, these programs had a total cost since inception in 2013 of $866 million through June 30, 2017 and $892 million through the completion of the programs in the year ended December 31, 2017.

Note 17. Stockholders' Equity and Noncontrolling Interests
We had 2.0 billion shares of preferred stock and 5.0 billion shares of common stock authorized for issuance and 1.4 billion shares of common stock issued and outstanding at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. In the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 we purchased three million and 44 million shares of our outstanding common stock for $100 million and $1.5 billion as part of the common stock repurchase program announced in March 2015, which our Board of Directors increased and extended in January 2016 and January 2017. Our total dividends paid on common stock were $536 million and $564 million in the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 and $1.1 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.

GM Cruise Preferred Shares On May 31, 2018, we entered into a Purchase Agreement with SoftBank Vision Fund (AIV M1), L.P. (The Vision Fund). The Vision Fund subsequently assigned its rights and obligations under the Purchase Agreement to SoftBank Investment Holdings (UK) Limited (SoftBank). In June 2018, at the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, GM Cruise Holdings LLC (GM Cruise Holdings), our subsidiary, issued $900 million of convertible preferred shares (GM Cruise Preferred Shares) to SoftBank, representing 10.9% of GM Cruise Holdings' equity at closing. Immediately prior to the issuance of the GM Cruise Preferred Shares, we invested $1.1 billion in GM Cruise Holdings. When GM Cruise's autonomous vehicles are ready for commercial deployment, SoftBank is obligated to purchase additional GM Cruise Preferred Shares for $1.35 billion, after which the GM Cruise Preferred Shares will represent 19.6% of GM Cruise Holdings’ equity. All proceeds are designated exclusively for working capital and general corporate purposes of GM Cruise. Dividends are cumulative and accrue at an annual rate of 7% and are payable quarterly in cash or in-kind, at GM Cruise's discretion. The GM Cruise Preferred Shares are also entitled to participate in GM Cruise dividends above a defined threshold. Prior to an initial public offering, SoftBank is restricted from transferring the GM Cruise Preferred Shares until June 28, 2025.

The GM Cruise Preferred Shares are convertible into common stock of GM Cruise Holdings, at specified exchange ratios, at the option of SoftBank or upon occurrence of an initial public offering. The GM Cruise Preferred Shares are entitled to receive the greater of their carrying value or a pro-rata share of any proceeds or distributions upon the occurrence of a merger, sale, liquidation, or dissolution of GM Cruise Holdings. Beginning on June 28, 2025, SoftBank has the option to convert all of the GM Cruise Preferred Shares into our common stock at a conversion ratio that is indexed to the fair value of GM Cruise Holdings at the time of conversion. We have the option to settle the conversion feature with our common shares or cash, and in certain situations with nonredeemable, nonconvertible preferred shares. Beginning on June 28, 2025, we can call all, but not less than all of the GM Cruise Preferred Shares held by SoftBank at an amount equal to the greater of the original investment amount plus accrued distributions paid in-kind and the fair value of GM Cruise Holdings at the time of conversion. The GM Cruise Preferred Shares are classified as noncontrolling interests in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

GM Korea Preferred Shares In May 2018 the Korea Development Bank (KDB) agreed to purchase approximately $750 million of GM Korea’s Class B Preferred Shares from GM Korea (GM Korea Preferred Shares), $361 million of which was received in June 2018 with the remainder expected to be received in the three months ending December 31, 2018. Dividends on the GM Korea Preferred Shares are cumulative and accrue at an annual rate of 1%. GM Korea can call the preferred shares at their original issue price six years from the date of issuance and once called, the preferred shares can be converted into common shares of GM Korea at the option of the holder. The GM Korea Preferred Shares are classified as noncontrolling interests in our condensed consolidated financial statements. The KDB investment proceeds of $361 million can only be used for purposes of funding capital expenditures in GM Korea. In conjunction with the GM Korea Preferred Share issuance we agreed to provide GM Korea future funding, if needed, not to exceed $2.8 billion through December 31, 2027, inclusive of $2.0 billion of planned capital expenditures through 2027.

Note 19. Discontinued Operations
On March 5, 2017 we entered into the Agreement to sell our European Business to PSA Group. On July 31, 2017 we closed the sale of our Opel/Vauxhall Business to PSA Group, and on October 31, 2017 we closed the sale of the Fincos to Banque PSA Finance S.A. and BNP Paribas Personal Finance S.A. For a further description of the terms and conditions refer to Note 3 of our 2017 Form 10-K.

Our wholly owned subsidiary (the Seller) has agreed to indemnify PSA Group for certain losses resulting from any inaccuracy of the representations and warranties or breaches of our covenants included in the Agreement and for certain other liabilities including certain emissions and product liabilities. The Company has entered into a guarantee for the benefit of PSA Group and pursuant to which the Company has agreed to guarantee the Seller's obligation to indemnify PSA Group. Certain of these indemnification obligations are subject to time limitations, thresholds and/or caps as to the amount of required payments.

Although the sale reduced our vehicle presence in Europe, we may still be impacted by actions taken by regulators related to vehicles sold before the sale. In Germany, the Kraftfahrt-Bundesamt (KBA) has indicated that it may issue an order converting Opel’s voluntary recall of certain vehicles with emission control systems into a mandatory recall for failure to comply with certain emissions regulations. Discussions and technical reviews remain ongoing among the parties. We believe that the emission control systems complied with the applicable regulations at the time the vehicles were manufactured, tested and sold. The Seller’s obligations to indemnify Opel may be triggered for certain losses and expenses of Opel if a mandatory recall is ordered. We are unable to estimate any reasonably possible loss or range of loss that may result from this matter.

During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we reached final agreement with PSA Group with respect to a number of post-closing working capital and other adjustments, as well as certain other matters related to the European Business. The cost of resolving these matters is classified in discontinued operations and was insignificant.

We will purchase from and supply to PSA Group certain vehicles for a period of time following closing. Total net sales and revenue of $561 million and $1.2 billion and purchases and expenses of $361 million and $837 million related to transactions with the Opel/Vauxhall Business were included in continuing operations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. Cash payments of $994 million and cash receipts of $1.5 billion were recorded in Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities – continuing operations related to transactions with the Opel/Vauxhall Business during the six months ended June 30, 2018.

The following table summarizes the results of the European Business operations:

In the three months ended June 30, 2017 we recognized a disposal loss of $324 million as a result of the Fincos being classified as held for sale, charges of $421 million for the cancellation of product programs resulting from the convergence of vehicle platforms between our European Business and PSA Group and other insignificant charges. These charges were recorded in Loss from discontinued operations, net of tax.

Note 20. Segment Reporting

We report segment information consistent with the way the chief operating decision maker evaluates the operating results and performance of the Company. As a result of the growing importance of our autonomous vehicle operations, we moved these operations from Corporate to GM Cruise and began presenting GM Cruise as a new reportable segment in the three months ended June 30, 2018. Our GMNA, GMI and GM Financial segments were not impacted. All periods presented have been recast to reflect the changes.

We analyze the results of our business through the following segments: GMNA, GMI, GM Cruise and GM Financial. As discussed in Note 1, the European Business is presented as discontinued operations and is excluded from our segment results for all periods presented. The European Business was previously reported as our GM Europe (GME) segment and part of GM Financial. The chief operating decision maker evaluates the operating results and performance of our automotive segments and GM Cruise through earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT)-adjusted, which is presented net of noncontrolling interests. The chief operating decision maker evaluates GM Financial through earnings before income taxes-adjusted because interest income and interest expense are part of operating results when assessing and measuring the operational and financial performance of the segment. Each segment has a manager responsible for executing our strategic initiatives. While not all vehicles within a segment are individually profitable on a fully allocated cost basis, those vehicles attract customers to dealer showrooms and help maintain sales volumes for other,

27

GENERAL MOTORS COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS —— (Continued)

more profitable vehicles and contribute towards meeting required fuel efficiency standards. As a result of these and other factors, we do not manage our business on an individual brand or vehicle basis.

Substantially all of the cars, trucks, crossovers and automobile parts produced are marketed through retail dealers in North America and through distributors and dealers outside of North America, the substantial majority of which are independently owned. In addition to the products sold to dealers for consumer retail sales, cars, trucks and crossovers are also sold to fleet customers, including daily rental car companies, commercial fleet customers, leasing companies and governments. Fleet sales are completed through the dealer network and in some cases directly with fleet customers. Retail and fleet customers can obtain a wide range of after-sale vehicle services and products through the dealer network, such as maintenance, light repairs, collision repairs, vehicle accessories and extended service warranties.

GMNA meets the demands of customers in North America with vehicles developed, manufactured and/or marketed under the Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC brands. GMI primarily meets the demands of customers outside North America with vehicles developed, manufactured and/or marketed under the Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, GMC, and Holden brands. We also have equity ownership stakes in entities that meet the demands of customers in other countries, primarily China, with vehicles developed, manufactured and/or marketed under the Baojun, Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Jiefang and Wuling brands. GM Cruise is our global segment designed to build, grow and invest in our autonomous vehicles business, and includes autonomous vehicle-related engineering and other costs.

Our automotive operations' interest income and interest expense, Maven, legacy costs from the Opel/Vauxhall Business (primarily pension costs), corporate expenditures and certain nonsegment specific revenues and expenses are recorded centrally in Corporate. Corporate assets consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, our investment in Lyft, Inc. (Lyft), PSA warrants, Maven vehicles and intercompany balances. Retained net underfunded pension liabilities related to the European Business are also recorded in Corporate. All intersegment balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Basis of Presentation This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) should be read in conjunction with the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2017 Form 10-K.

The European Business is presented as discontinued operations in our condensed consolidated financial statements for all periods presented. Unless otherwise indicated, information in this report relates to our continuing operations.

Forward-looking statements in this MD&A are not guarantees of future performance and may involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Refer to the "Forward-Looking Statements" section of this MD&A and the "Risk Factors" section of our 2017 Form 10-K for a discussion of these risks and uncertainties. Except for per share amounts or as otherwise specified, dollar amounts presented within tables are stated in millions.

Non-GAAP Measures Unless otherwise indicated, our non-GAAP measures discussed in this MD&A are related to our continuing operations and not our discontinued operations. Our non-GAAP measures include EBIT-adjusted, presented net of noncontrolling interests, Core EBIT-adjusted, EPS-diluted-adjusted, effective tax rate-adjusted (ETR-adjusted), return on invested capital-adjusted (ROIC-adjusted) and adjusted automotive free cash flow. Our calculation of these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies due to potential differences between companies in the method of calculation. As a result, the use of these non-GAAP measures has limitations and should not be considered superior to, in isolation from, or as a substitute for, related U.S. GAAP measures.

These non-GAAP measures allow management and investors to view operating trends, perform analytical comparisons and benchmark performance between periods and among geographic regions to understand operating performance without regard to items we do not consider a component of our core operating performance. Furthermore, these non-GAAP measures allow investors the opportunity to measure and monitor our performance against our externally communicated targets and evaluate the investment decisions being made by management to improve ROIC-adjusted. Management uses these measures in its financial, investment and operational decision-making processes, for internal reporting and as part of its forecasting and budgeting processes. Further, our Board of Directors uses certain of these and other measures as key metrics to determine management performance under our performance-based compensation plans. For these reasons we believe these non-GAAP measures are useful for our investors.

GENERAL MOTORS COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES



EBIT-adjusted EBIT-adjusted is presented net of noncontrolling interests and is used by management and can be used by investors to review our consolidated operating results because it excludes automotive interest income, automotive interest expense and income taxes as well as certain additional adjustments that are not considered part of our core operations. Examples of adjustments to EBIT include but are not limited to impairment charges on long-lived assets and other exit costs resulting from strategic shifts in our operations or discrete market and business conditions and costs arising from the ignition switch recall and related legal matters. For EBIT-adjusted and our other non-GAAP measures, once we have made an adjustment in the current period for an item, we will also adjust the related non-GAAP measure in any future periods in which there is a significant impact from the item.

Core EBIT-adjusted Core EBIT-adjusted is used by management and can be used by investors to review our core consolidated operating results. Core EBIT-adjusted begins with EBIT-adjusted and excludes the EBIT-adjusted results of GM Cruise. Previously Core EBIT-adjusted excluded the EBIT-adjusted results of autonomous vehicle operations, including GM Cruise, Maven and our investment in Lyft. The measure was changed to align with segment reporting. All periods presented have been recast to reflect the changes.

EPS-diluted-adjusted EPS-diluted-adjusted is used by management and can be used by investors to review our consolidated diluted EPS results on a consistent basis. EPS-diluted-adjusted is calculated as net income attributable to common stockholders-diluted less income (loss) from discontinued operations on an after-tax basis, adjustments noted above for EBIT-adjusted and certain income tax adjustments divided by weighted-average common shares outstanding-diluted. Examples of income tax adjustments include the establishment or reversal of significant deferred tax asset valuation allowances.

ETR-adjusted ETR-adjusted is used by management and can be used by investors to review the consolidated effective tax rate for our core operations on a consistent basis. ETR-adjusted is calculated as Income tax expense less the income tax related to the adjustments noted above for EBIT-adjusted and the income tax adjustments noted above for EPS-diluted-adjusted divided by Income before income taxes less adjustments.
 
ROIC-adjusted ROIC-adjusted is used by management and can be used by investors to review our investment and capital allocation decisions. We define ROIC-adjusted as EBIT-adjusted for the trailing four quarters divided by ROIC-adjusted average net assets, which is considered to be the average equity balances adjusted for average automotive debt and interest liabilities, exclusive of capital leases; average net pension and OPEB liabilities; and average automotive and other net income tax assets during the same period. Adjustments to the average equity balances exclude assets and liabilities classified as either assets held for sale or liabilities held for sale.

Adjusted automotive free cash flow Adjusted automotive free cash flow is used by management and can be used by investors to review the liquidity of our automotive operations and to measure and monitor our performance against our capital allocation program and evaluate our automotive liquidity against the substantial cash requirements of our automotive operations. We measure adjusted automotive free cash flow as automotive operating cash flow from continuing operations less capital expenditures adjusted for management actions. Management actions can include voluntary events such as discretionary contributions to employee benefit plans or nonrecurring specific events such as a plant closure that are considered special for EBIT-adjusted purposes. Refer to the "Liquidity and Capital Resources" section of this MD&A for additional information.

The following table reconciles Net income (loss) attributable to stockholders under U.S. GAAP to EBIT-adjusted:

(a)
These adjustments were excluded because of a strategic decision to rationalize our core operations by exiting or significantly reducing our presence in various international markets to focus resources on opportunities expected to deliver higher returns. The adjustments primarily consist of supplier claims and employee separation charges in the three months ended June 30, 2018 and asset impairments and employee separation charges in the three months ended March 31, 2018, all in Korea. The adjustment in the three months ended June 30, 2017 primarily consists of asset impairments and other restructuring actions in India, South Africa and Venezuela.
(b)
These adjustments were excluded because of the unique events associated with the ignition switch recall, which included various investigations, inquiries and complaints from constituents.

Overview Our management team has adopted a strategic plan to transform GM into the world's most valued automotive company. Our plan includes several major initiatives that we anticipate will redefine the future of personal mobility through our zero crashes, zero emissions, zero congestion vision while also strengthening the core of our business: earning customers for life by delivering winning vehicles, leading the industry in quality and safety and improving the customer ownership experience; leading in technology and innovation, including electrification, autonomous, data monetization and connectivity; growing our brands; making tough, strategic decisions about which markets and products in which we will invest and compete; building profitable adjacent businesses and targeting 10% core margins on an EBIT-adjusted basis.

In addition to our EBIT-adjusted margin improvement goal, our overall financial targets include total annual operational and functional cost savings of $6.5 billion through 2018 compared to 2014 costs, of which approximately $6.0 billion has been realized as of June 30, 2018, and which will more than offset our planned incremental investments in brand building, engineering and

technology as we launch new products; and execution of our capital allocation program as described in the "Liquidity and Capital Resources" section of this MD&A.

For the year ending December 31, 2018 we expect EPS-diluted of approximately $5.14 and EPS-diluted-adjusted of approximately $6.00. These do not consider the potential future impact of adjustments on our expected financial results. The following table reconciles expected diluted earnings per common share under U.S. GAAP to expected EPS-diluted-adjusted:

The tax effect of the adjustment is determined based on the tax laws and valuation allowance status of the jurisdiction in which the adjustment relates.

We face continuing challenges from a market, operating and regulatory standpoint in a number of countries across the globe due to, among other factors, weak economic conditions, competitive pressures, our product portfolio offerings, emissions standards, foreign exchange volatility and political uncertainty. As a result of these conditions, we continue to strategically assess our performance and ability to achieve acceptable returns on our invested capital. As we continue to assess our performance, additional restructuring and rationalization actions may be required or a determination may be made that the carrying amount of our long-lived assets may not be recoverable in certain of these countries. Such a determination may give rise to future asset impairments or other charges which may have a material impact on our results of operations.

GMNA Industry sales in North America were 10.7 million units in the six months ended June 30, 2018, representing an increase of 1.2% compared to the corresponding period in 2017. U.S. industry sales were 8.8 million units in the six months ended June 30, 2018 and we expect industry unit sales of approximately 17 million for the full year.

Our vehicle sales in the U.S., our largest market in North America, totaled 1.5 million units for a market share of 16.8% in the six months ended June 30, 2018, representing an increase of 0.3 percentage points compared to the corresponding period in 2017. We continue to lead the U.S. industry in market share.

We are experiencing strong U.S. industry light vehicle sales and are continuing our focus on key product launches, overall cost savings and a greater mix of crossovers relative to passenger cars compared to 2017. However, we expect to continue to experience higher commodity costs and pricing pressures, and anticipate higher costs associated with tariffs. As a result we expect an EBIT-adjusted margin of approximately 9% to 10% in the year ending December 31, 2018. Based on our current cost structure, we continue to estimate GMNA’s breakeven point at the U.S. industry level to be in the range of 10.0 to 11.0 million units.

GMI China industry sales were 13.0 million units in the six months ended June 30, 2018 representing a 4.6% increase compared to the corresponding period in 2017. Our China retail volumes totaled 1.8 million units for market share of 14.2% in the six months ended June 30, 2018, which was flat compared to the corresponding period in 2017. We continue to see strength in sales of our Cadillac and Baojun passenger vehicles and SUVs, as well as positive momentum in Chevrolet sales driven by new product launches. Wuling sales were impacted by the market shift away from mini commercial vehicles. Our Automotive China JVs generated equity income of $1.2 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2018. We expect low industry growth in 2018 and a continuation of pricing pressures, which will continue to pressure margins. We expect a similar level of vehicle sales in 2018 driven by new launches and expect to sustain strong China equity income by focusing on improvements in vehicle mix, cost efficiencies, and downstream performance optimization.

Outside of China, many markets across the segment continue to improve, resulting in industry sales of 13.2 million units, representing an increase of 6.0% in the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to the corresponding period in 2017. This increase was due primarily to increases in India, Brazil and Russia. Our retail vehicle sales totaled 0.6 million units for a market share of 4.3% in the six months ended June 30, 2018, representing a decrease of 0.7 percentage points compared to the corresponding period in 2017.

In February 2018 we announced the closure of a facility and other restructuring actions in Korea. We recorded charges of $1.1 billion consisting of $0.6 billion in non-cash asset impairments and other charges and $0.5 billion in employee separation charges in the six months ended June 30, 2018. We incurred $0.7 billion in cash outflows resulting from these Korea restructuring actions for employee separations and statutory pension payments in the six months ended June 30, 2018 and we expect to incur approximately $0.2 billion of additional cash outflows, primarily for supplier claims and statutory pension payments in the six months ending December 31, 2018. The charges are considered special for EBIT-adjusted, EPS-diluted-adjusted and adjusted automotive free cash flow reporting purposes. Refer to Note 16 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for information related to these restructuring actions.

In May 2018 KDB agreed to purchase approximately $0.75 billion of GM Korea Preferred Shares, $0.4 billion of which was received in June 2018 with the remainder expected to be received in the three months ending December 31, 2018. In conjunction with the GM Korea Preferred Share issuance we agreed to provide GM Korea future funding, if needed, not to exceed $2.8 billion through December 31, 2027, inclusive of $2.0 billion of planned capital expenditures through 2027. Refer to Note 17 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.

GM Cruise In June 2018 GM Cruise Holdings issued $0.9 billion of GM Cruise Preferred Shares to SoftBank, representing 10.9% of GM Cruise Holdings' equity at closing. Immediately prior to the issuance of the GM Cruise Preferred Shares, we invested $1.1 billion in GM Cruise Holdings. When GM Cruise's autonomous vehicles are ready for commercial deployment, SoftBank is obligated to purchase additional GM Cruise Preferred Shares for $1.35 billion, after which the GM Cruise Preferred Shares will represent 19.6% of GM Cruise Holdings' equity. All proceeds are designated exclusively for working capital and general corporate purposes of GM Cruise. Refer to Note 17 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Corporate Beginning in 2012 through July 13, 2018, we purchased an aggregate of 507 million shares of our outstanding common stock under our common stock repurchase programs for $16.3 billion.

The ignition switch recall has led to various inquiries, investigations, subpoenas, requests for information and complaints from agencies or other representatives of U.S. federal, state and Canadian governments. In addition, these and other recalls have resulted in a number of claims and lawsuits. Such lawsuits and investigations could in the future result in the imposition of material damages, fines, civil consent orders, civil and criminal penalties or other remedies. Refer to Note 14 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Takata Matters In May 2016 NHTSA issued an amended consent order requiring Takata to file DIRs for previously unrecalled front airbag inflators that contain phased-stabilized ammonium nitrate-based propellant without a moisture absorbing desiccant on a multi-year, risk-based schedule through 2019 impacting tens of millions of vehicles produced by numerous automotive manufacturers. NHTSA concluded that the likely root cause of the rupturing of the airbag inflators is a function of time, temperature cycling and environmental moisture.

Although we do not believe there is a safety defect at this time in any unrecalled GM vehicles within scope of the Takata DIRs, in cooperation with NHTSA we have filed Preliminary DIRs covering certain of our GMT900 vehicles, which are full-size pickup trucks and SUVs. We have also filed petitions for inconsequentiality with respect to the vehicles subject to those Preliminary DIRs. NHTSA has consolidated our petitions and will rule on them at the same time.

While these petitions have been pending, we have provided NHTSA with the results of our long-term studies and the studies performed by third-party experts, all of which form the basis for our determination that the inflators in these vehicles do not present an unreasonable risk to safety and that no repair should ultimately be required.

We believe these vehicles are currently performing as designed and ongoing testing continues to support the belief that the vehicles' unique design and integration mitigates against inflator propellant degradation and rupture risk. For example, the airbag inflators used in the vehicles are a variant engineered specifically for our vehicles, and include features such as greater venting, unique propellant wafer configurations, and machined steel end caps. The inflators are packaged in the instrument panel in such a way as to minimize exposure to moisture from the climate control system. Also, these vehicles have features that minimize the maximum temperature to which the inflator will be exposed, such as larger interior volumes and standard solar absorbing windshields and side glass.

Accordingly, no warranty provision has been made for any repair associated with our vehicles subject to the Preliminary DIRs and amended consent order. However, in the event we are ultimately obligated to repair the vehicles subject to current or future Takata DIRs under the amended consent order in the U.S., we estimate a reasonably possible impact to GM of approximately $1.0 billion.

GM is engaged in discussions with regulators outside the U.S. with respect to Takata inflators. There are significant differences in vehicle and inflator design between the relevant vehicles sold internationally and those sold in the U.S. We continue to gather and analyze evidence about these inflators and to share our findings with regulators. We were required to recall certain vehicles sold outside of the U.S. in the three months ended March 31, 2018 to replace Takata inflators in these vehicles. Additional recalls, if any, could be material to our results of operations and cash flows. We continue to monitor the international situation.

On June 26, 2017, Takata filed for bankruptcy protection in the United States and Japan. On April 11, 2018 the sale of Takata to Key Safety Systems, Inc. was finalized, and as a result we received a restitution payment.

Contingently Issuable Shares  Under the Amended and Restated Master Sale and Purchase Agreement between us and Motors Liquidation Company, GM may be obligated to issue Adjustment Shares of our common stock if allowed general unsecured claims against the GUC Trust, as estimated by the Bankruptcy Court, exceed $35.0 billion. Refer to Note 14 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for a description of the contingently issuable Adjustment Shares.

Vehicle Sales The principal factors that determine consumer vehicle preferences in the markets in which we operate include overall vehicle design, price, quality, available options, safety, reliability, fuel economy and functionality. Market leadership in individual countries in which we compete varies widely.

We present both wholesale and retail vehicle sales data to assist in the analysis of our revenue and our market share. Wholesale vehicle sales data, which represents sales directly to dealers and others, including sales to fleet customers, is the measure that correlates to our revenue from the sale of vehicles, which is the largest component of Automotive net sales and revenue. Wholesale vehicle sales exclude vehicles sold by joint ventures. In the six months ended June 30, 2018, 34.7% of our wholesale vehicle sales volume was generated outside the U.S. The following table summarizes total wholesale vehicle sales of new vehicles by automotive segment (vehicles in thousands):

Wholesale vehicle sales related to transactions with the European Business were insignificant for all periods presented.
(b)
Wholesale vehicle sales include 46 and 94 vehicles related to transactions with the European Business for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.

Retail vehicle sales data, which represents sales to end customers based upon the good faith estimates of management, including sales to fleet customers, does not correlate directly to the revenue we recognize during the period. However retail vehicle sales data is indicative of the underlying demand for our vehicles. Market share information is based primarily on retail vehicle sales volume. In countries where retail vehicle sales data is not readily available, other data sources such as wholesale or forecast volumes are used to estimate retail vehicle sales to end customers.

Retail vehicle sales data includes all sales by joint ventures on a total vehicle basis, not based on the percentage of ownership in the joint venture. Certain joint venture agreements in China allow for the contractual right to report vehicle sales of non-GM trademarked vehicles by those joint ventures. Retail vehicle sales data includes vehicles used by dealers under courtesy transportation programs. Certain fleet sales that are accounted for as operating leases are included in retail vehicle sales at the time of delivery to daily rental car companies. The following table summarizes total industry retail sales, or estimated sales where retail sales volume is not available, of vehicles and our related competitive position by geographic region (vehicles in thousands):

(a)
Sales of Opel/Vauxhall outside of Europe were insignificant in the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.
(b)
Our China sales include the Automotive China JVs SAIC General Motors Sales Co., Ltd. (SGMS), SAIC GM Wuling Automobile Co., Ltd. (SGMW) and FAW-GM Light Duty Commercial Vehicle Co., Ltd. (FAW-GM). We use estimated vehicle registrations data as the basis for calculating industry volume and market share in China.
(c)
Includes Industry and GM sales in India and South Africa. As of December 31, 2017 we have ceased sales of Chevrolet for the domestic markets in India and South Africa.
(d)
We do not currently export vehicles to Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, or Syria. Accordingly these countries are excluded from industry sales data and corresponding calculation of market share.

In the six months ended June 30, 2018 we estimate we had the largest retail market share in North America and South America, and the number three market share in the Asia/Pacific, Middle East and Africa region, which included the number two market share in China.

The sales and market share data provided in the table above includes both fleet vehicle sales and sales to retail customers. Certain fleet transactions, particularly sales to daily rental car companies, are generally less profitable than sales to retail customers. Prior to January 1, 2018 a significant portion of the sales to daily rental car companies were recorded as operating leases under U.S. GAAP with no recognition of revenue at the date of initial delivery due to guaranteed repurchase obligations. Beginning January 1, 2018, a significant portion of the sales to daily rental car companies are recorded as sales. The following table summarizes estimated fleet sales and those sales as a percentage of total retail vehicle sales (vehicles in thousands):

GM Financial Summary and Outlook GM Financial has expanded its leasing and prime lending programs in North America; therefore, leasing and prime lending have become a larger percentage of the originations and retail portfolio balance. The industry supply of used vehicles resulting from off-lease returns is expected to continue to increase through 2019. Based on recent pricing trends for used vehicles in the secondary market, which have remained more favorable than previously expected, we now expect used vehicle prices in the U.S. to decline between 2% and 4% as compared to 2017. The following table summarizes the estimated residual value as well as the number of units included in GM Financial equipment on operating leases, net by vehicle type (units in thousands):

GM Financial's retail penetration in North America decreased to 43% in the six months ended June 30, 2018 from 44% in the corresponding period in 2017, primarily due to decreased GM lease share. In the six months ended June 30, 2018 GM Financial's revenue consisted of leased vehicle income of 72%, retail finance charge income of 22% and commercial finance charge income of 4%. We believe that offering a comprehensive suite of financing products will generate incremental sales of our vehicles, drive incremental GM Financial earnings and help support our sales throughout various economic cycles.

Consolidated Results We review changes in our results of operations under five categories: volume, mix, price, cost and other. Volume measures the impact of changes in wholesale vehicle volumes driven by industry volume, market share and changes in dealer stock levels. Mix measures the impact of changes to the regional portfolio due to product, model, trim, country and option penetration in current year wholesale vehicle volumes. Price measures the impact of changes related to Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price and various sales allowances. Cost includes primarily: (1) material and freight; (2) manufacturing, engineering, advertising, administrative and selling and warranty expense; and (3) non-vehicle related activity. Other includes primarily foreign exchange and non-vehicle related automotive revenues as well as equity income or loss from our nonconsolidated affiliates. Refer to the regional sections of this MD&A for additional information. We adopted ASU 2014-09 on a modified retrospective basis effective January 1, 2018. The impacts of the new standard are reflected in this MD&A. Refer to Note 1 of our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.

The vehicle sales of our Automotive China JVs are not recorded in Total net sales and revenue. The results of our joint ventures are recorded in Equity income, which is included in EBIT-adjusted above.

GMI Total Net Sales and Revenue In the three months ended June 30, 2018 Total net sales and revenue decreased due primarily to: (1) decreased wholesale volumes in Korea due to the closure of a facility and other restructuring actions and in Asia/Pacific due to the withdrawal from the Indian and South African markets in 2017; and (2) unfavorable Other due primarily to the foreign currency effect resulting from the weakening of the Argentine Peso and Brazilian Real against the U.S. Dollar, partially offset by a retrospective recovery of indirect tax credits resulting from a decision by the Brazilian Superior Court of Justice; partially offset by (3) favorable pricing related to carryover vehicles in Argentina and Brazil.

In the six months ended June 30, 2018 Total net sales and revenue decreased due primarily to: (1) decreased wholesale volumes in Korea due to the closure of a facility and other restructuring actions and in Asia/Pacific due to the withdrawal from the Indian and South African markets in 2017; and (2) unfavorable Other due primarily to the foreign currency effect resulting from the weakening of the Argentine Peso and Brazilian Real against the U.S. Dollar; partially offset by (3) favorable mix driven by increased sales of the Chevrolet Tracker and Equinox in Brazil and SUVs in the Middle East; and (4) favorable pricing related to carryover vehicles in Argentina and Brazil.

GMI EBIT-Adjusted In the three months ended June 30, 2018 EBIT-adjusted decreased due primarily to (1) decreased wholesale volumes; and (2) unfavorable Other due primarily to the foreign currency effect resulting from the weakening of the Argentine Peso and Brazilian Real against the U.S. Dollar; partially offset by (3) favorable pricing.

In the six months ended June 30, 2018 EBIT-adjusted decreased due primarily to: (1) decreased wholesale volumes; and (2) unfavorable Other due primarily to the foreign currency effect resulting from the weakening of the Argentine Peso and Brazilian Real against the U.S. Dollar; partially offset by (3) favorable pricing; and (4) favorable mix driven by decreased low-margin vehicle sales in Korea.

We view the Chinese market as important to our global growth strategy and are employing a multi-brand strategy led by our Buick, Chevrolet and Cadillac brands. In the coming years we plan to leverage our global architectures to increase the number of product offerings under the Buick, Chevrolet and Cadillac brands in China and continue to grow our business under the local Baojun and Wuling brands, with Baojun seizing the growth opportunities in less developed cities and markets. We operate in the Chinese market through a number of joint ventures and maintaining good relations with our joint venture partners, which are affiliated with the Chinese government, is an important part of our China growth strategy.

GM Financial Revenue In the three months ended June 30, 2018 Total revenue increased due primarily to increased leased vehicle income of $0.4 billion due to a larger lease portfolio.

In the six months ended June 30, 2018 Total revenue increased due primarily to increased leased vehicle income of $0.9 billion due to a larger lease portfolio.

GM Financial Earnings Before Income Taxes-Adjusted In the three months ended June 30, 2018 Earnings before income taxes-adjusted increased due primarily to increased net leased vehicle income of $0.3 billion due primarily to a larger lease portfolio, partially offset by an increase in interest expense due primarily to an increase in average debt outstanding resulting from growth in the loan and lease portfolios as well as rising benchmark rates.

In the six months ended June 30, 2018 Earnings before income taxes-adjusted increased due primarily to increased net leased vehicle income of $0.4 billion due primarily to a larger lease portfolio, partially offset by an increase in interest expense due primarily to an increase in average debt outstanding resulting from growth in the loan and lease portfolios as well as rising benchmark rates.

Liquidity and Capital Resources We believe that our current level of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and availability under our revolving credit facilities will be sufficient to meet our liquidity needs. We expect to have substantial cash requirements going forward which we plan to fund through total available liquidity and cash flows generated from operations and future debt issuances. We also maintain access to the capital markets and may issue debt or equity securities from time to time, which may provide an additional source of liquidity. Our future uses of cash, which may vary from time to time based on market conditions and other factors, are focused on three objectives: (1) reinvest in our business; (2) maintain a strong investment-grade balance sheet; and (3) return available cash to shareholders. Our known future material uses of cash include, among other possible demands: (1) capital expenditures of approximately $8.5 billion annually as well as payments for engineering and product development activities; (2) payments associated with previously announced vehicle recalls, the settlements of the multidistrict litigation and any other recall-related contingencies; (3) payments to service debt and other long-term obligations, including discretionary and mandatory contributions to our pension plans; (4) dividend payments on our common stock that are declared by our Board of Directors; and (5) payments to purchase shares of our common stock authorized by our Board of Directors.

Our liquidity plans are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including those described in the "Forward-Looking Statements" section of this MD&A and the “Risk Factors” section of our 2017 Form 10-K, some of which are outside of our control.

We continue to monitor and evaluate opportunities to strengthen our competitive position over the long-term while maintaining a strong investment-grade balance sheet. These actions may include opportunistic payments to reduce our long-term obligations such as our pension plans, as well as the possibility of acquisitions, dispositions, investments with joint venture partners and strategic alliances that we believe would generate significant advantages and substantially strengthen our business.

Our senior management evaluates our capital allocation program on an ongoing basis and recommends any modifications to the program to our Board of Directors, not less than once annually. Management reaffirmed and our Board of Directors approved the capital allocation program, which includes reinvesting in our business at an average target ROIC-adjusted rate of 20% or greater, maintaining a strong investment-grade balance sheet, including a target average Automotive cash balance of $18 billion, and returning available cash to shareholders.

As part of our capital allocation program, our Board of Directors authorized programs to purchase $9 billion in aggregate of our common stock which were completed in the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2017. We announced in January 2017 that our Board of Directors had authorized the purchase of up to an additional $5 billion of our common stock with no expiration date, subsequent to completing the remaining portion of the previously announced programs. We completed $1.6 billion of the $5 billion program through June 30, 2018, which included $0.1 billion purchased in the three months ended March 31, 2018 in conjunction with the sale of GM common stock by the UAW Retiree Medical Benefits Trust. From inception of the program in 2015 through July 13, 2018 we had purchased an aggregate of 302 million shares of our outstanding common stock under our common stock repurchase program for $10.6 billion. We returned total cash to shareholders of $1.2 billion, consisting of dividends paid on our common stock and purchases of our common stock in the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Automotive Liquidity Total available liquidity includes cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and funds available under credit facilities. The amount of available liquidity is subject to intra-month and seasonal fluctuations and includes balances held by various business units and subsidiaries worldwide that are needed to fund their operations. There have been no significant changes in the management of our liquidity, including the allocation of our available liquidity, the composition of our portfolio and our investment guidelines since December 31, 2017. Refer to the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section of MD&A in our 2017 Form 10-K.

We use credit facilities as a mechanism to provide additional flexibility in managing our global liquidity. At December 31, 2017 the total size of our credit facilities was $14.5 billion which consisted principally of our two primary revolving credit facilities. In April 2018 we amended and restated our two existing revolving credit facilities and entered into a third facility, increasing our aggregate borrowing capacity from $14.5 billion to $16.5 billion. These facilities consist of a 364-day, $2.0 billion facility, a three-year, $4.0 billion facility and a five-year, $10.5 billion facility. The facilities are available to us as well as certain wholly owned subsidiaries, including GM Financial. The three-year, $4.0 billion facility allows for borrowings in U.S. Dollars and other currencies and includes a letter of credit sub-facility of $1.1 billion. The five-year, $10.5 billion facility allows for borrowings in U.S. Dollars and other currencies. The 364-day, $2.0 billion facility allows for borrowing in U.S. Dollars only. We have allocated the 364-day, $2.0 billion facility for exclusive use by GM Financial. Total automotive available credit under the facility remains unchanged at $14.5 billion.

We did not have any borrowings against our primary facilities, but had letters of credit outstanding under our sub-facility of $0.4 billion at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. GM Financial did not have any borrowings outstanding against our credit facility designated for their exclusive use at June 30, 2018 or the remainder of our revolving credit facilities at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. We had intercompany loans from GM Financial of $0.5 billion and $0.4 billion at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, which consisted primarily of commercial loans to dealers we consolidate, and we had no intercompany loans to GM Financial. Refer to Note 5 of our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information. Additionally, our 3.5%, $1.5 billion senior unsecured notes will mature in October 2018, which we intend to refinance.

As a means to access the strong liquidity available in our China JVs, from time to time, we may borrow from our joint ventures to provide additional liquidity to support our operations and capital investment. In the three months ended March 31, 2018, we borrowed $1.3 billion from SGM pursuant to a short-term unsecured note payable that we repaid in June 2018. In the three months ended June 30, 2018 we received dividends of $2.0 billion from our Automotive China JVs, which we believe have sufficient cash on hand to fund ongoing operations.

In May 2018 we entered into an agreement with KDB to fund capital expenditure requirements of GM Korea. As part of the agreement KDB agreed to purchase GM Korea Preferred Shares of approximately $0.75 billion, and we agreed to provide future funding to GM Korea if needed, not to exceed $2.8 billion through December 31, 2027, inclusive of $2.0 billion of planned capital expenditures through 2027. Refer to Note 17 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further details.

Adjusted Automotive Free Cash Flow

We measure adjusted automotive free cash flow as automotive operating cash flow from continuing operations less capital expenditures adjusted for management actions. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, net automotive cash provided by operating activities under U.S. GAAP was $2.9 billion, capital expenditures were $4.3 billion, and an add-back adjustment for management actions related to restructuring in Korea was $0.7 billion.

For the six months ended June 30, 2017, net automotive cash provided by operating activities under U.S. GAAP was $6.4 billion, capital expenditures were $4.1 billion, and there were no adjustments for management actions.

Status of Credit Ratings We receive ratings from four independent credit rating agencies: DBRS Limited, Fitch Rating, Moody's Investor Service and Standard & Poor's. In March 2018 DBRS Limited revised their outlook to Positive from Stable. All other credit ratings remained unchanged since December 31, 2017.

Automotive Financing – GM Financial Liquidity GM Financial's primary sources of cash are finance charge income, leasing income and proceeds from the sale of terminated leased vehicles, servicing fees, net distributions from credit facilities, securitizations, secured and unsecured borrowings and collections and recoveries on finance receivables. GM Financial's primary uses of cash are purchases of retail finance receivables and leased vehicles, the funding of commercial finance receivables, repayment of secured and unsecured debt, funding credit enhancement requirements in connection with securitizations and secured debt facilities, operating expenses and interest costs. GM Financial continues to monitor and evaluate opportunities to optimize its liquidity position and the mix of its debt between secured and unsecured debt.

Critical Accounting Estimates The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which requires the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses in the periods presented. We believe the accounting estimates employed are appropriate and the resulting balances are reasonable; however, due to the inherent uncertainties in developing estimates, actual results could differ from the original estimates, requiring adjustments to these balances in future periods. The critical accounting estimates that affect the condensed consolidated

financial statements and the judgments and assumptions used are consistent with those described in the MD&A section in our 2017 Form 10-K, as supplemented by the subsequent discussion of sales incentives for the adoption of ASU 2014-09. Refer to Note 1 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information on the adoption of ASU 2014-09.

Sales Incentives The estimated effect of sales incentives offered to dealers and end customers is recorded as a reduction of Automotive net sales and revenue at the time of sale. There may be numerous types of incentives available at any particular time. Incentive programs are generally brand specific, model specific or sales region specific and are for specified time periods, which may be extended. Significant factors used in estimating the cost of incentives include forecasted sales volume, product type, product mix, customer behavior and assumptions concerning market conditions. Historical experience is also considered when establishing our future expectations. A change in any of these factors affecting the estimate could have a significant effect on recorded sales incentives. Subsequent adjustments to incentive estimates are possible as facts and circumstances change over time, which could affect the revenue previously recognized in Automotive net sales and revenue.

Forward-Looking Statements In this report and in reports we subsequently file and have previously filed with the SEC on Forms 10-K and 10-Q and file or furnish on Form 8-K, and in related comments by our management, we use words like “anticipate,” “appears,” “approximately,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “designed,” “effect,” “estimate,” “evaluate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “goal,” “initiative,” “intend,” “may,” “objective,” “outlook,” “plan,” “potential,” “priorities,” “project,” “pursue,” “seek,” “should,” “target,” “when,” “will,” “would,” or the negative of any of those words or similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements that represent our current judgment about possible future events. In making these statements we rely on assumptions and analysis based on our experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments as well as other factors we consider appropriate under the circumstances. We believe these judgments are reasonable, but these statements are not guarantees of any events or financial results, and our actual results may differ materially due to a variety of important factors, both positive and negative. These factors, which may be revised or supplemented in subsequent reports on SEC Forms 10-Q and 8-K, include among others the following: (1) our ability to deliver new products, services and customer experiences in response to new participants in the automotive industry; (2) our ability to timely fund and introduce new and improved vehicle models that are able to attract a sufficient number of consumers; (3) the success of our crossovers, SUVs and full-size pickup trucks; (4) our ability to reduce the costs associated with the manufacture and sale of electric vehicles; (5) global automobile market sales volume, which can be volatile; (6) our significant business in China which subjects us to unique operational, competitive and regulatory risks; (7) our joint ventures, which we cannot operate solely for our benefit and over which we may have limited control; (8) the international scale and footprint of our operations which exposes us to a variety of political, economic and regulatory risks, including the risk of changes in government leadership and laws (including tax laws), economic tensions between governments and changes in international trade policies, new barriers to entry and changes to or withdrawals from free trade agreements, changes in foreign exchange rates, economic downturns in foreign countries, differing local product preferences and product requirements, compliance with U.S. and foreign countries' export controls and economic sanctions, differing labor regulations and difficulties in obtaining financing in foreign countries; (9) any significant disruption at one of our manufacturing facilities could disrupt our production schedule; (10) the ability of our suppliers to deliver parts, systems and components without disruption and at such times to allow us to meet production schedules; (11) prices of raw materials used by us and our suppliers; (12) our highly competitive industry, which is characterized by excess manufacturing capacity and the use of incentives and the introduction of new and improved vehicle models by our competitors; (13) the possibility that competitors may independently develop products and services similar to ours and there are no guarantees that our intellectual property rights would prevent competitors from independently developing or selling those products or services; (14) our ability to manage risks related to security breaches and other disruptions to our vehicles, information technology networks and systems; (15) our ability to comply with extensive laws and regulations applicable to our industry, including those regarding fuel economy and emissions; (16) costs and risks associated with litigation and government investigations; (17) our ability to comply with the terms of the DPA; (18) the cost and effect on our reputation of product safety recalls and alleged defects in products and services; (19) our ability to successfully and cost-effectively restructure our operations in various countries, including Korea with minimal disruption to our supply chain and operations, globally; (20) our ability to realize production efficiencies and to achieve reductions in costs; (21) our continued ability to develop captive financing capability through GM Financial; and (22) significant increases in our pension expense or projected pension contributions resulting from changes in the value of plan assets or the discount rate applied to value the pension liabilities or mortality or other assumption changes. A further list and description of these risks, uncertainties and other factors can be found in our 2017 Form 10-K and our subsequent filings with the SEC.

We caution readers not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update publicly or otherwise revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or other factors that affect the subject of these statements, except where we are expressly required to do so by law.

consummation of the Transactions have been duly and validly authorized by the Company,
Parent and any such Affiliate, as applicable, and no other action on the part of the Company,
Parent or any such Affiliate, as applicable, is necessary to approve the execution and delivery of

the Company or Parent of this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements to which the
Company, Parent and/or one or more of their designated Affiliates, as applicable, is or will be a
party, nor the consummation of the Transactions, will conflict with, or result in any violation of
or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of
termination, amendment, acceleration of or cancellation under any obligations or loss of a
material benefit under, or result in the creation of any Lien on any of the assets that will be
owned by the Company Group after giving effect to the Restructuring pursuant to, any provision
of (a) the organizational documents of any member of the Company Group or Parent, (b) any
applicable Law or order, judgment or decree (each, an “Order”) of any Governmental Authority,

Order, Permit, registration, declaration, exemption, filing, notification or other order of, or other
action by, any Person is required or necessary for the execution, delivery and performance by the
Company or Parent of this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement to which the
Company, Parent, and/or one or more of their Affiliates, as applicable, is a party or the
consummation by the Company or Parent of the Transactions, other than (a) as may be required
under any applicable state securities or “blue sky” Laws, or (b) as may be required as a result of
facts and circumstances relating solely to Buyer or its Affiliates, except for those consents,
approvals, waivers, authorizations, Orders, Permits, registrations, declarations, exemptions,

aggregate, materially delay or impair the ability of Parent or the Company to consummate the
Transactions.

ARTICLE IV
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF BUYER

Buyer hereby represents and warrants to the Company and Parent, as of the date
of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date, as follows:

Section 4.1     Corporate Organization. Buyer is a limited partnership duly organized,
validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of Delaware. Buyer has the power and
authority to own or lease all of its properties and assets and to carry on its business as it is now
being conducted. Buyer is duly qualified to do business, and is in good standing (if applicable)
in each jurisdiction in which the nature of its business or the ownership of its properties makes
such qualification necessary, except for where such failures to be so qualified and in good
standing do not and would not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, delay
or impair the ability of Buyer to consummate the Transactions pursuant to the Transaction
Agreements to which Buyer is a party.

Section 4.2     Authority and Validity. Buyer has the corporate power and authority to
execute and deliver this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements to which it is a party,
to perform its obligations hereunder and thereunder and to consummate the Transactions. The
execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements to which Buyer
is a party and the consummation of the Transactions pursuant to the Transaction Agreements to
which Buyer is a party, have been duly and validly authorized by Buyer and no other action on
the part of Buyer is necessary to approve the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the
other Transaction Agreements to which Buyer is a party or to consummate the Transactions
pursuant to the Transaction Agreements to which Buyer is a party. This Agreement and the
other Transaction Agreements to which Buyer is a party has been (or will be, as applicable) duly
and validly executed and delivered by Buyer and (assuming due authorization, execution and
delivery by the other parties thereto) constitutes, or will constitute (as applicable), valid and
binding obligations of Buyer, enforceable against Buyer in accordance with their respective
terms, except as may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, fraudulent transfer, insolvency,
moratorium or similar Laws of general application relating to or affecting creditors’ rights
generally and except for the limitations imposed by general principles of equity.

Section 4.3     Non-Contravention. Neither the execution, delivery and performance by
Buyer of this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements to which Buyer is a party, nor
the consummation by Buyer of the Transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements to
which Buyer is a party, will conflict with, or result in any violation of or default (with or without
notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of termination or cancellation under,
any provision of (a) the governing documents of Buyer, or (b) any applicable Law or Order of
any Governmental Authority (except for such conflicts or violations, in the case of this clause
(b), that do not and would not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, delay
or impair the ability of Buyer to consummate the Transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Agreements to which Buyer is a party).

Section 4.4     Consents and Approvals. No material consent, approval, waiver,
authorization, Order, Permit, registration, declaration, exemption, filing, notification or other
order of, or other action by, any Person is required or necessary for the execution, delivery and

17





performance by Buyer of this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement to which Buyer is
a party or the consummation by Buyer of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, other
than (a) any filing required to obtain CFIUS Approval, (b) as may be required under any
applicable state securities or “blue sky” Laws, and (c) as may be required as a result of facts and
circumstances relating solely to the Company Group, Parent or their Affiliates, except for those
consents, approvals, waivers, authorizations, Orders, Permits, registrations, declarations,
exemptions, filings, notifications or other orders of, or other actions by, any Person that do not
and would not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, delay or impair the
ability of Buyer to consummate the Transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements.

Section 4.5     Accredited Investor Status. Buyer is an “accredited investor” within the
meaning of Rule 501 under the Securities Act. Buyer is an informed and sophisticated investor
in securities and has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial and business matters to
evaluate the merits and risks of its investment in the Buyer Shares and to bear the economic risks
of such investment. Buyer has performed its own due diligence and business investigation with
respect to the Company and been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the Company’s
management concerning the Company and the Buyer Shares. Buyer understands that its
investment in the Buyer Shares involves a significant degree of risk.

Section 4.6     Investment Intention; Sale or Transfer. Buyer is acquiring the Buyer
Shares solely for its own account, for investment purposes and not with a view to, or for offer or
sale in connection with, the distribution (as such term is used in Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities
Act) thereof. Buyer acknowledges that (a) the issuance of the Buyer Shares has not been and is
not being registered under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws, and cannot
be sold unless subsequently so registered or an exemption from such registration is available,
(b) the Buyer Shares may not be sold or otherwise transferred except pursuant to an effective
registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from, or a transaction
not subject to, registration under the Securities Act and applicable securities laws, (c) neither the
Company nor any other Person is under any obligation to register the Buyer Shares under the
Securities Act or any state securities laws with respect to any offering thereof by Buyer or to
comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder, except as otherwise provided
in the Transaction Agreements, and (d) any sale or transfer of the Buyer Shares is subject to the
restrictions contained in, and must comply with the terms and conditions of, the LLC Agreement
applicable to such transfer or sale.

Section 4.7     Broker’s Fees. Neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates have employed any
broker, finder or financial advisor or incurred any liability for any broker’s fees, commissions,
finder’s fees or financial advisor’s fees in connection with any of the Transactions.

Section 4.8     Legal Proceedings. As of the date of this Agreement, there are no Legal
Proceedings pending and, to the Knowledge of Buyer, there are no Legal Proceedings threatened
against Buyer or any of its Affiliates or any of their properties or assets, or any of the managers
or officers of the Buyer or its Affiliates with regard to their actions as managers or officers of the
Buyer or its Affiliates, before any Governmental Authority that will or would reasonably be
expected to, individually or in the aggregate, delay or impair the ability of Buyer to consummate
the Transactions pursuant to the Transaction Agreements to which Buyer is a party.


18





Section 4.9     Financial Capability. Buyer has and, at each of the Closing and the date
payment is due and payable pursuant to Section 2.02(b) of the LLC Agreement, will have,
uncalled capital commitments to fully pay and completely perform its payment obligations under
this Agreement and Section 2.02(b) of the LLC Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby and by Section 2.02(b) of the LLC Agreement. Such commitments, if funded, would not
violate any investment limitation pursuant to Buyer’s governing documents, in each case taking
into account all other investments made or to be made by Buyer.

Section 4.10     No Other Representations and Warranties; Non-Reliance on Parent
Estimates.

(a)     Except for the representations and warranties contained in Article III,
Buyer acknowledges that none of Parent, the Company or their respective Affiliates or any
Representatives of the foregoing (i) has made or makes any other express or implied
representation or warranty, either written or oral, including any representation or warranty as to
the accuracy or completeness of any information regarding Parent, the Company or their
respective Affiliates or any Representatives of the foregoing, furnished or made available to
Buyer, its Affiliates or any of their Representatives and (ii) except as expressly otherwise
provided herein or in any other Transaction Agreement, will have or be subject to any liability or
indemnification obligation to Buyer, its Affiliates or any of its or their Representatives resulting
from the delivery, dissemination or any other distribution to Buyer, its Affiliates or any of its or
their Representatives, or the use by Buyer, its Affiliates or any of its or their Representatives, of
any materials, documentation estimates, projections, forecasts, forward-looking information,
business plans or other oral or other information during the course of due diligence or any
negotiation process (including information memoranda, dataroom materials, projections,
estimates, management presentations, budgets and financial data and reports).

(b)     In connection with the due diligence investigation of the Company Group,
and the business thereof, by Buyer, Buyer and/or its Representatives have received and may
continue to receive from Parent, its Affiliates and the Company Group and their respective
Representatives certain estimates, projections, forecasts and other forward-looking information,
as well as certain business plan information, regarding the Company Group and its business and
operations. Buyer hereby acknowledges that there are uncertainties inherent in attempting to
make such estimates, projections, forecasts and other forward-looking statements, as well as in
such business plans, with which Buyer is familiar, that Buyer is taking full responsibility for
making its own evaluation of the adequacy and accuracy of all estimates, projections, forecasts
and other forward-looking information, as well as such business plans, so furnished to Buyer
(including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections,
forecasts, forward-looking information or business plans), and that Buyer has not relied on such
information.

ADDITIONAL COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS

Section 5.1     Further Actions; Regulatory Approvals.

(a)     The Parties agree to (i) make a draft joint voluntary notice to CFIUS as
soon as practicable following the Closing and (ii) promptly after responding to any comments
(either written or oral) from the CFIUS staff on the draft joint voluntary notice (or as soon as
possible after CFIUS staff confirms it has no comments to the draft joint voluntary notice), a
joint voluntary notice pursuant to the Exon-Florio Amendment to the Defense Production Act of
1950, 50 U.S.C. § 4565, as amended. Each Party further agrees to, subject to applicable Law
relating to the sharing of information, (A) provide each other as promptly as practicable with
such assistance as each reasonably requests for the purposes of such filings and (B) supply, as
promptly as practicable and advisable (and in any case in the time periods set forth by CFIUS),
any additional information and documentary material that may be required or requested by the
applicable Governmental Authority.

(b)     The Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to obtain CFIUS
Approval as promptly as practicable following the date of this Agreement; provided that Buyer
shall not be required to propose, agree to, commit to, effect or accept any Burdensome Condition
if such proposal, agreement, commitment, effect or acceptance is required to obtain the CFIUS
Approval.

(c)     Each of the Parties shall (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to) use
its reasonable best efforts to cooperate reasonably with each other in connection with any filing
or submission with a Governmental Authority in connection with the Transactions and in
connection with any investigation or other inquiry by or before a Governmental Authority
relating to the Transactions. The Parties shall jointly develop and agree to a strategy for
obtaining CFIUS Approval and neither Party shall deviate from such mutually agreed approach
without the prior written consent of the other Party. No P arty shall communicate with any
Governmental Authority regarding the CFIUS filing, CFIUS review or investigation, o r other
inquiry without giving the other P arty sufficient prior notice of such communication and the
opportunity to review and comment on any proposed written communication and, with respect to
any oral communication, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Authority, to attend
and/or participate in such conversation or meeting. The Parties shall keep each other timely
apprised of any inquiries or requests for additional information from any Governmental
Authority, and shall comply as promptly as practicable and advisable with any such reasonable
inquiry or request. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, the Buyer, Parent
and the Company shall n o t have any obligations to share with the other any confidential
business information unrelated to the Transactions, including to the extent such information
is requested by CFIUS.

(d)     In connection with, and without limiting or expanding, the obligations set
forth in this Section 5.1, each of the Parties agrees to use, and to cause their Affiliates to use,
reasonable best efforts to consummate the Transactions as expeditiously as possible, including (i)
litigating (or defending) against any administrative or judicial action or proceeding (including
any proceeding seeking a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction) challenging the

20





Transactions as violative of any Law, and (ii) resolving objections by a Governmental Authority
as a condition to permit the Transactions to close without challenge. The Parties shall respond to
and seek to resolve as promptly as reasonably practicable any objections asserted by any
Governmental Authority with respect to the Transactions.

(e)     For the avoidance of doubt (and notwithstanding Section 5.1(b)), neither
CFIUS Approval nor the receipt of any approval, consent, registration, Permit, authorization or
other confirmation from any Governmental Authority (or the expiration of any waiting period
under the antitrust Laws of any jurisdiction) shall be a condition to the Closing, and, without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the failure to obtain CFIUS Approval or any such other
approval, consent, registration, Permit, authorization or other confirmation shall not affect or
limit the obligations of any Party to consummate the Issuance on the terms set forth in this
Agreement or give any rights or remedies to Buyer or its Affiliates with respect to the Issuance.

(f)     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (including the
first sentence of Section 5.1(b)), (i) none of Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries or other Affiliates
shall be required to offer or commit to hold separate, sell, divest or dispose, or suffer any
restriction on the operation, of any assets, properties or businesses of Parent or any of its
Subsidiaries or other Affiliates (including the members of the Company Group), and (ii) none of
Buyer nor any of its Subsidiaries or other Affiliates shall be required to offer or commit to sell,
divest or dispose, or, without prejudice to the remainder of Buyer’s obligations in this Section
5.1 to obtain the CFIUS Approval (including the obligation to accept the measures set forth in
parts (A) through (D), inclusive, in the definition of Burdensome Condition, if required by
CFIUS to obtain CFIUS Approval), suffer any restriction on the operation, management, or
governance of, any assets, properties of Buyer or businesses of any portfolio companies (as such
term is commonly understood in the private equity industry) of Buyer or its Subsidiaries or other
Affiliates or, with the sole exception of the Company, any companies in which Buyer or any of
Buyer’s Subsidiaries or other Affiliates hold a minority equity position.

Section 5.2     Initial Employee Equity Plan. Prior to, or as soon as reasonably
practicable following the Closing, Parent shall establish an equity-based Employee Incentive
Program (the “EIP”) pursuant to which certain employees of the Company Group may be
granted equity-based incentive compensation awards with respect to the equity interests of the
Company following the Closing. The terms and conditions of the EIP shall be consistent with
those set forth on Section 5.2 of the Disclosure Letter.

Section 5.3     Cooperation. Except as otherwise provided herein, in case at any time
after the date of this Agreement any further action is necessary to carry out the purposes of this
Agreement, the Parties agree to use their commercially reasonable efforts to take or cause to be
taken all such reasonably necessary or appropriate action in accordance with and subject to the
terms of this Agreement.

Section 5.4     Publicity. None of the Parties shall issue any press release or public or
other widely disseminated announcement concerning this Agreement or the Transactions, or
make any other public or other widely disseminated disclosure regarding the terms of this
Agreement or the Transactions without obtaining the prior written approval of the other Parties,
which approval in any such case shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided,

21





however, that no Party shall be required to obtain such approval if, in its reasonable judgment,
disclosure is required by applicable Law or by the applicable rules of any stock exchange on
which such Party or its Affiliates lists securities; provided further, that the initial press release
and the other initial public communications following the signing of this Agreement shall be in
such forms as have been previously reviewed by and coordinated among the Parties.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 5.4 shall prohibit (a) Parent or any of its
Affiliates from (i) making internal announcements to, or otherwise communicating with, their
respective employees or (ii) communicating with, and making disclosures to, investors, in each
case so long as such announcements, communications and disclosures are consistent in all
material respects with, and with no more detail than, the Parties’ prior public disclosures
regarding the Transactions or (b) Buyer and its Affiliates from (i) making internal
announcements to, or otherwise communicating with, their respective employees or (ii)
communicating with, and making disclosures to, investors, in each case so long as such
announcements, communications and disclosures are consistent in all material respects with, and
with no more detail than, the Parties’ prior public disclosures regarding the Transactions. At and
after the Closing, the rights and obligations of Buyer and Parent with respect to the disclosure of
information related to the Transactions or the Company Group will be governed exclusively by
the LLC Agreement.

Section 5.5     Transfer Taxes. Any transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration
or other such Taxes, and all conveyance fees, recording charges and other fees and charges
(including any penalties and interest) (“Transfer Taxes”) incurred in connection with the
consummation of the Restructuring shall be paid by Parent when due, and any Transfer Taxes
incurred in connection with the Issuance shall be paid by Buyer when due. The Company shall
file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all Transfer Taxes and, if
required by applicable law, Parent and Buyer will, and will cause their Affiliates, to join in the
execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation.

Section 5.6     Parent Additional Contribution; Definitive Documents.

(a)     At the Closing, Parent shall contribute to the Company an amount equal to
$1,100,000,000 in cash (the “Parent Contribution”), and, in exchange therefor and for the
transfer of the Transferred Entities as part of the Restructuring and the grant of certain rights by
Parent to the Company under the IP Matters Agreement, the Company shall issue, assign, convey
and deliver to Parent, at the Closing, 1,100,000 Class A-2 Preferred Shares and five 5,500,000
Class C Common Shares (the “Parent Shares”), free and clear of all Liens (other than any Liens
under securities Laws or Liens or other transfer restrictions under the LLC Agreement).

(b)     Subject to the last sentence of this Section 5.6(b), between the date of this
Agreement and the Closing Date, Parent will use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare
definitive agreements (each, a “Commercial Agreement”) with respect to the Service Parts
Supply Agreement Term Sheet, the Vehicle Supply Agreement Term Sheet, the Fleet Financing
Agreement Term Sheet and the Connected Services Supply Agreement Term Sheet, which such
term sheets have been agreed to by the Parties on the date of this Agreement (the “Commercial
Agreement Term Sheets”), which Commercial Agreements shall and must be on terms and
conditions consistent in all material respects with the terms and conditions set forth in the
applicable Commercial Agreement Term Sheet. Parent will provide Buyer with a reasonable

22





opportunity to review each such Commercial Agreement prior to the finalization and execution
thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.6(b) or otherwise in this
Agreement, the failure by Parent to prepare or finalize any Commercial Agreement prior to the
Closing Date in and of itself shall not constitute a breach by Parent or the Company of their
respective obligations under this Agreement or otherwise give rise to the failure of any condition
set forth in Article VI.

(c)     Upon finalization of any Commercial Agreement prior to Closing, the
relevant Commercial Agreement Term Sheet relating thereto shall automatically, and without
any further action by any Person, be deemed null and void and removed as an Exhibit hereto and
such Commercial Agreement shall be inserted as the relevant Exhibit and shall be executed and
delivered by the parties thereto at Closing. In the event one or more of the Commercial
Agreements has not been finalized on or prior to Closing, then (i) each Commercial Agreement
Term Sheet related to such Commercial Agreements will be executed and delivered by Parent
and the Company (or one or more of their designated Affiliates, as applicable) at the Closing and
will constitute a valid and binding Contract (and will, prior to the finalization of a definitive
agreement with respect thereto, be deemed a Commercial Agreement) in accordance with the
terms thereof, and (ii) Parent and the Company will continue to use commercially reasonable
efforts to finalize a definitive agreement with respect to such Commercial Agreement as
promptly as practicable in a manner consistent with Section 5.6(b) (and it being understood, for
the avoidance of doubt, that Buyer shall continue to have the rights of review provided to it
under Section 5.6(b) with respect to such agreements) and (iii) upon finalization of each such
Commercial Agreement, such Commercial Agreement will be promptly executed by the parties
thereto and will replace (and render null and void, other than for such matters as may be
identified in the relevant Commercial Agreement) the relevant Commercial Agreement Term
Sheet(s).

Section 5.7     Termination of Intercompany Arrangements; Preservation of Agreements.

(a)     Effective as of not later than immediately prior to the Closing, except as
set forth on Section 5.7(a) of the Disclosure Letter, Parent shall take all necessary action to cause
all Intercompany Accounts in respect of intercompany financing or cash management activities
(and excluding, for clarity, ordinary course trade payables) then existing to be settled by way of
capital contribution (including a contribution in respect of existing shares or in exchange for
newly issued shares), dividend (in cash or in kind) or other repayment. For the avoidance of
doubt, except as expressly contemplated by any of the Commercial Agreements or on Section
5.7(a) of the Disclosure Letter, as of immediately prior to the Closing all Intercompany Accounts
in respect of intercompany financing or cash management activities (and excluding, for clarity,
ordinary course trade payables) will be settled and no member of the Company Group will have
any liabilities with respect thereto.

(b)     Except as provided in Section 5.7(a) or as expressly identified on
Section 5.7(b) of the Disclosure Letter, the Parties each agree that all written agreements,
arrangements, commitments and understandings between any member or members of the
Company Group, on the one hand, and Parents or its Subsidiaries (other than the members of the
Company Group), on the other hand (the “Intercompany Agreements”), shall terminate
immediately prior to the Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, except as provided in Section

23





5.7(a), the Commercial Agreements or as expressly identified on Section 5.7(b) of the Disclosure
Letter, as of immediately prior to the Closing no Intercompany Agreements will remain in effect.

Section 5.8     Pre-Closing Restructuring.

(a)     Prior to the Closing, Parent shall, and shall cause its applicable
Subsidiaries to, perform certain restructuring activities necessary so that the Transferred Entities
will become Subsidiaries of the Company (the “Restructuring”). The Restructuring shall consist
of those steps, actions and matters set forth on Section 5.8 of the Disclosure Letter and in no
event will Parent or its Affiliates allocate or otherwise assign any liabilities to any member of the
Company Group in connection with the Restructuring (provided that, for the avoidance of doubt,
(i) any liability of the Transferred Entities will be retained by the Company Group and (ii) any
liability allocated to the Company Group in any of the Transaction Agreements will remain a
liability of the Company Group in accordance with the terms thereof). Any material changes to
Section 5.8 of the Disclosure Letter proposed by Parent after the date hereof and at any time
prior to the Closing shall be subject to Buyer’s prior written consent, with such changes that are
approved in writing by the Buyer to be incorporated into a revised, amended and restated Section
5.8 of the Disclosure Letter.

(b)     Following the Restructuring, Parent shall retain in perpetuity the sole and
exclusive right to waive the joint-client privilege held by Parent and the Company and/or any of
the Transferred Entities covering legal services rendered at any time, irrespective of what
information or communications the privilege covers, regardless of whether the privileged
material is a communication solely between Parent’s (or its Affiliates’) attorneys and the
Company and/or the Transferred Entities. Parent shall retain this right in all circumstances,
including circumstances in which there is adversity between Parent and the Company and/or any
of the Transferred Entities, and none of the Transactions shall affect this retention.

(c)     For the avoidance of doubt, all steps of the Restructuring shall be
completed by Parent or its applicable Subsidiaries prior to or substantially concurrent with the
Closing.

ARTICLE VI
CONDITIONS TO CLOSING

Section 6.1     Conditions Precedent to Obligations of the Parties. The respective

concurrent with the Closing in accordance with Section 5.8(a);

terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(d). Each Party’s rights of termination under
this Article VII are in addition to any other rights it may have under this Agreement, applicable
Law or otherwise, and the exercise of a right of termination shall not constitute an election of

(a)     The representations and warranties of (i) Parent set forth in Sections 3.1,

warranty, covenant or agreement prior to the expiration of the applicable period during which
such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement survives, in each case as set forth in this
Section 8.1 (such period with respect to such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement,
the “Survival Period”), the claim with respect to such representation, warranty, covenant or
agreement shall continue until such claim is finally resolved. Any claims for indemnification for
which notice under this Article VIII is not timely delivered prior to the end of the Survival
Period shall be expressly barred and are hereby waived.

Section 8.2     Indemnification by Parent.

(a)     Subject to the provisions of this Article VIII, Parent hereby agrees to
defend, indemnify and hold harmless Buyer and its Affiliates, and any Representatives of any of

26





the foregoing, and Buyer’s successors and assigns from and against, and shall compensate and
reimburse them for, any and all Losses (regardless of whether or not such Losses relate to any
Third Party Claim) based upon, arising out of or resulting from:

(i)     any breach of or inaccuracy in any of the representations or
warranties made by Parent in this Agreement; provided, that for purposes of this Section
8.2(a)(i) any limitations or qualifications regarding “materiality” or similar terms or
qualifications limiting the scope of such representations or warranties of Parent shall be
disregarded (other than as set forth in the definitions of Material Contract and Permitted
Liens, and the first sentence of Section 3.8(c), the last instance in Section 3.10, Section
3.11(i), Section 3.15, Section 3.16 and Section 3.18); or

(ii)     any breach of or failure to perform any of Parent’s or the
Company’s covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement.

(b)     Subject to the provisions of this Article VIII, Parent hereby agrees to
defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Company for any and all Taxes (other than Taxes
attributable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) required to be paid by the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries to a taxing authority pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-6
(or any analogous or similar provision of U.S. state or local, or non-U.S. law) as a result of being
a member of the GM Affiliated Group (or any other affiliated, consolidated, combined or unitary
group of which the Parent is or was a member) during a pre-Closing Taxable Period (or portion
thereof).

Section 8.3     Indemnification by Buyer.

Subject to the provisions of this Article VIII, Buyer hereby agrees to defend,
indemnify and hold harmless the Company, Parent and each of their Affiliates, and any
Representatives of any of the foregoing, and each of the successors and assigns of any the
foregoing, from and against, and shall compensate and reimburse them for, any and all Losses
(regardless of whether or not such Losses relate to any Third Party Claim) based upon, arising
out of or resulting from:

(a)     any breach of or inaccuracy in any of the representations or warranties
made by Buyer in this Agreement; provided that, for purposes of this Section 8.3(a), any
limitations or qualifications regarding “materiality” or similar terms or qualifications limiting the
scope of such representations or warranties of Buyer shall be disregarded; or

(b)     any breach of or failure to perform any of Buyer’s covenants or
agreements contained in this Agreement.

Section 8.4     Indemnification Procedures. In the event that indemnification,
compensation or reimbursement may be sought under this Article VIII (an “Indemnification
Claim”) in connection with (a) any action, suit or proceeding that may be instituted or (b) any
claim that may be asserted, in each case by a third party (a “Third Party Claim”), the Party
seeking indemnification, compensation or reimbursement hereunder (the “Indemnified Party”)
shall promptly give written notice of the assertion of such Indemnification Claim (which notice
shall describe in reasonable detail the Indemnification Claim, the amount thereof (if known and
27





quantifiable) and the basis thereof) to the Party from whom indemnification, compensation or
reimbursement hereunder is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) prior to the expiration of the
applicable Survival Period set forth in Section 8.1; provided, however, that no delay on the part
of the Indemnified Party in giving any such notice shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any
indemnification, compensation or reimbursement obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to
the extent that) the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such delay. The Indemnifying
Party shall have the right, at its sole option, to be represented by counsel of its choice (the cost of
which will be borne solely by the Indemnifying Party), which must be reasonably satisfactory to
the Indemnified Party, and to take sole control and defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise
deal with any Indemnification Claim and, if the Indemnifying Party elects to defend against,
negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Indemnification Claim, it shall notify the Indemnified
Party of its intent to do so within thirty (30) days (or sooner if the nature of the Indemnification
Claim so requires) of the receipt by the Indemnifying Party of the notice of the assertion of such
Indemnification Claim (the “Dispute Period”), subject to the limitations set forth in Section 8.5;
provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any
Indemnification Claim if such Indemnification Claim seeks an order, injunction or other
equitable relief or relief for other than monetary damages against the Indemnified Party that the
Indemnified Party reasonably determines, based on the written advice of its outside counsel,
cannot be separated from any related claim for money damages. If such equitable relief or other
relief portion of the Indemnification Claim can be so separated from that for money damages, the
Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume the defense of the portion relating to money
damages. If the Indemnifying Party within the Dispute Period elects not to defend against,
negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Indemnification Claim or fails to promptly notify the
Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, the
Indemnified Party may defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with such
Indemnification Claim, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article VIII. If the
Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Indemnification Claim, the Indemnified Party
may participate, at its own expense, in the defense of such Indemnification Claim; provided,
however, that such Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in any such defense with
separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party if (i) the employment of such counsel
has been authorized in writing by the Indemnifying Party or (ii) outside counsel to the
Indemnified Party advises the Indemnified Party in writing that an actual or potential conflict
exists between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party that would make such separate
representation advisable; provided further, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be required to
pay for more than one (1) such counsel for all Indemnified Parties in connection with any single
Indemnification Claim. The Parties agree to cooperate reasonably with each other in connection
with the defense, negotiation or settlement of any such Indemnification Claim. Notwithstanding
anything in this Section 8.4 to the contrary, (A) the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the
written consent of the Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed), settle or compromise any Indemnification Claim or permit a default or consent to entry
of any judgment (each, a “Settlement”) unless (1) the claimant provides to the Indemnified Party
an unqualified release from all Liability (without any admission of wrongdoing by the
Indemnified Party) in respect of the relevant Third Party Claim and (2) such Settlement does not
impose any liabilities or obligations on the Indemnified Party (other than monetary damages) and
(B) the Indemnified Party, without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which



28





consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, shall not settle any
Indemnification Claims.

Section 8.5     Limitations on Indemnification for Breaches of Representations and
Warranties.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any Transaction Agreement
to the contrary:

(a)     (i) Parent shall not have any indemnification, compensation or
reimbursement obligations for Losses under Section 8.2 arising as a result of (A) a breach of the
representations and warranties of Parent set forth in Article III, excluding the Parent
Fundamental Reps (the “Parent Non-Fundamental Reps”) or (B) a breach of or failure to perform
any of Parent’s or the Company’s covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement (other
than Section 5.7), with respect to any individual claim (or series of related claims) unless such
claim (or series of claims) involves Losses in excess of $250,000 (nor shall such item be applied
to or considered for purposes of calculating the Basket (as defined below)); (ii) Parent shall not
have any indemnification, compensation or reimbursement obligations for Losses under
Section 8.2(a)(i) arising as a result of a breach of the Parent Non-Fundamental Reps unless and
until the aggregate amount of all such Losses for which Parent is finally determined to be liable
exceeds one percent (1%) of the Purchase Price (the “Basket”), and Parent shall only have
indemnification obligations to the extent of the excess of such Losses over the Basket,
(iii) subject to clause (iv), in no event shall the aggregate indemnification, compensation and
reimbursement to be paid by Parent for Losses under Section 8.2(a)(i) arising as a result of a
breach of the Parent Non-Fundamental Reps (including those in Section 3.11) exceed ten percent
(10%) of the Purchase Price (the “Closing Cap”), (iv) in no event shall the aggregate
indemnification, compensation or reimbursement obligations of Parent for Losses under Section
8.2(a)(i) arising as a result of a breach of the representations and warranties of Parent set forth in
Section 3.11, after taking into account the aggregate indemnification, compensation and
reimbursement paid by Parent for Losses under Section 8.2(a)(i) arising as a result of a breach of
any other Parent Non-Fundamental Reps, exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of the Purchase
Price, and (v) in no event shall the aggregate indemnification, compensation and reimbursement
obligations to be paid by Parent for Losses under Section 8.2 exceed the Purchase Price.

(b)     (i) Buyer shall not have any indemnification, compensation or
reimbursement obligations for Losses under Section 8.3 arising as a result of (A) a breach of the
Buyer Non-Fundamental Reps or (B) a breach of or failure to perform any of Buyer’s covenants
or agreements contained in this Agreement, with respect to any individual claim (or series of
related claims) unless such claims (or series of claims) involves Losses in excess of $250,000
(nor shall such item be applied to or considered for purposes of calculating the Basket); (ii)
Buyer shall not have any indemnification, compensation and reimbursement obligations for
Losses under Section 8.3(a) arising as a result of a breach of the Buyer Non-Fundamental Reps
unless and until the aggregate amount of all such Losses, finally determined, exceeds the Basket;
provided, however, that from and after such time as the total amount of such Losses exceeds the
Basket, then Buyer shall be liable only for the portion that exceeds the Basket, (iii) in no event
shall the aggregate indemnification, compensation and reimbursement to be paid by Buyer for all
Losses under Section 8.3(a) arising as a result of a breach of the Buyer Non-Fundamental Reps

29






exceed the Closing Cap, and (iv) in no event shall the aggregate indemnification, compensation
or reimbursement to be paid by Buyer for Losses under Section 8.3 exceed the Purchase Price.

Section 8.6     Adjustments to Losses; Limitations on Remedies; Calculation of Losses.

(a)     If any Indemnifying Party is liable to pay an amount in discharge of any
claim under this Agreement and any Indemnified Party or its Affiliates recovers from a third
party (including any insurer but excluding any “self-insurance” maintained by the Indemnified
Party or its Affiliates) a sum which indemnifies, compensates or reimburses the Indemnified
Party or its Affiliates (in whole or in part) in respect of the Loss which is the subject matter of
the claim, the Indemnified Party shall reduce or satisfy, as the case may be, such claim to the
extent of such recovery less any reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in
connection with receiving such recovery and any related increases in insurance premiums;
provided, however, that in no event shall any Indemnified Party have any obligation to seek or
enforce any recovery from such third party.

(b)     To the extent a Loss for which indemnification is provided results in a
reduction of Taxes payable by, or a Tax refund to, the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates
(determined on a “with and without” basis) in the Taxable Period in which such Loss was
accrued for Tax purposes or the following two (2) Taxable Periods (a “Tax Benefit”), then the
amount of the indemnity payment made pursuant to this Article VIII in respect of such Loss shall
be reduced by the amount of such Tax Benefit. In the event such Tax Benefit is ultimately
disallowed pursuant to a “determination,” as defined in Section 1313 of the Code, the
Indemnifying Party shall pay, no later than fifteen (15) days following the date of such
determination, to the Indemnified Party the amount by which such indemnity payment was
reduced as a result of the Tax Benefit. If any such Tax Benefit is not actually realized prior to
the time the related indemnification payment is made, the Indemnified Party thereafter shall
make payments in accordance with this Article VIII to the Indemnifying Party to reflect such
Tax Benefit.

(c)     No Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover from any Indemnifying
Party (i) under this Article VIII more than once in respect of the same Loss (notwithstanding that
such Loss may result from breaches of multiple provisions of this Agreement), or (ii) to the
extent such Indemnified Party has already recovered for such Loss under any other Transaction
Agreement.

(d)     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in
no event shall an Indemnifying Party have any liability under this Agreement to an Indemnified
Party (i) for any Losses that were not reasonably foreseeable, and (ii) for any punitive or
exemplary damages, unless in each case of (i) and (ii), awarded by an arbitrator or
Governmental Authority to a third party and paid to such third party by an Indemnified Party,
(iii) for lost opportunities and (iv) for diminution or reduction in value premised upon application
of a multiplier of any financial measure or of any similar item (including the application of a
multiplier to loss of revenue, income or profits, loss of business reputation, goodwill or
opportunity).


30





(e)     Any Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification, compensation or
reimbursement under this Article VIII based on any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation
or warranty of an Indemnifying Party under this Agreement or any breach of or failure to
perform any covenant or agreement of an Indemnifying Party under this Agreement shall not be
diminished or otherwise affected in any way as a result of: (i) the existence of such Indemnified
Party’s knowledge of such breach, inaccuracy or nonperformance as of the date of this
Agreement or as of the Closing Date, regardless of whether such knowledge exists as a result of
the Indemnified Party’s investigation or as a result of disclosure by such Indemnifying Party
(other than in the Disclosure Letter or in the GM SEC Filings); or (ii) such Indemnified Party’s
waiver of any condition to Closing set forth in Article VI.

Section 8.7     Payments. The Indemnifying Party shall pay to the Indemnified Party the
amount of any Losses for which the Indemnifying Party is liable hereunder, in immediately
available funds, to an account specified by the Indemnified Party no later than fifteen (15) days
following any Final Determination of such Losses and the Indemnifying Party’s liability
therefor. A “Final Determination” shall exist when (a) the parties to the dispute have reached an
agreement in writing, (b) a court of competent jurisdiction shall have entered a final and non-appealable
Order or judgment with respect to the subject matter of the claim or (c) an arbitration
or like panel shall have rendered a final non-appealable determination with respect to disputes
the Parties have agreed to submit thereto.

Section 8.8    Mitigation. The Parties shall (and shall cause their respective Affiliates
to) cooperate with each other with respect to resolving any claim or liability with respect to
which one party is obligated to indemnify the other party under this Article VIII, including by
making commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate to the extent required by Law after
becoming aware of any such claim.

Section 8.9     Exclusive Remedy. Other than for claims of intentional fraud based on a
false representation in Article III or Article IV, the remedies set forth in this Article VIII shall be
the sole and exclusive remedies of the Parties for any breach or alleged breach of any
representation or warranty or any covenant or agreement in this Agreement. The Parties
acknowledge and agree that, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the
remedies available in this Article VIII supersede any other remedies available at law or in equity
including rights of rescission and claims arising under applicable Law, and each Party hereby
waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any and all other rights,
remedies, claims and causes of action, whether in contract, tort or otherwise, known or unknown,
foreseen or unforeseen, which exist or may arise in the future, arising under or based upon any
federal, state or local Law, that any Party may have against another Party in respect of any
breach of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 8.9 shall not operate to (i)
limit the rights of the Parties with respect to claims of intentional fraud based on a false
representation in Article III or Article IV, (ii) limit the rights of the Parties to seek remedies upon
a termination to the extent otherwise permitted by Section 7.2; (iii) limit the rights of the Parties
to seek equitable remedies (including specific performance or injunctive relief) in accordance
with Section 9.10 to require a Party to perform its obligations under this Agreement, or (iv) limit
any Party’s rights or obligations pursuant to any other Transaction Agreement in accordance
with the terms thereof. No past, present or future Representative of any Party (collectively, the
Non-Party Affiliates”) shall have any liability (whether in Law (including in contract or in tort),

31





in equity or otherwise) related to this Agreement or for any claim or Legal Proceeding based on,
in respect of or by reason of the Transactions except to the extent agreed to in writing by such
Non-Party Affiliate (including pursuant to the terms and conditions of any Transaction
Agreement).

Section 8.10     Treatment of Indemnity Payments. The Parties shall treat each payment
made under this Article VIII as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless
otherwise required by applicable Law.

ARTICLE IX
GENERAL PROVISIONS

Section 9.1     Expenses. Except as expressly provided elsewhere in this Agreement or in
any other Transaction Agreement, each Party shall bear its own Transaction Expenses.

Section 9.3    Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement to “Sections,”
“Exhibits” or “Disclosure Letter” such reference shall be to a section of, an exhibit of, or the
Disclosure Letter to, this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. References to this Agreement
shall include the Disclosure Letter. The table of contents and headings contained in this
Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or
interpretation of this Agreement. The words “hereof”, “herein” and “hereunder” and words of
like import used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any
particular provision of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or
“including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words
“without limitation.” The terms defined in the singular have a comparable meaning when used
in the plural, and vice versa, and references herein to any gender includes each other gender.
The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” means the degree to which a subject or other
thing extends and such phrase shall not mean simply “if”. Any references to dollar amounts
shall not be deemed to be an acknowledgement or representation that such items are material, to
establish any standard of materiality or to define further the meaning of such terms for purposes
of this Agreement. The terms “$” and “dollars” means United States Dollars. All references to
“day” shall be deemed to mean “calendar day”. No rule of construction against the draftspersons
shall be applied in connection with the interpretation or enforcement of this Agreement, as this
Agreement is the product of negotiation between sophisticated parties advised by counsel.

Section 9.4     Entire Agreement; Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement (including
the Exhibits hereto), the Disclosure Letter and the Transaction Agreements represent the entire
understanding and agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and
supersedes all other prior agreements, undertakings, representations and warranties, both written
and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement can be
amended, supplemented or changed, and any provision hereof can be waived, only by written
instrument making specific reference to this Agreement signed by the Party against whom
enforcement of any such amendment, supplement, modification or waiver is sought. The waiver
by any Party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as
a further or continuing waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach.
No failure on the part of any Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or
remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of
such right, power or remedy by such Party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right, power or remedy.

Section 9.5     Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and
enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any
choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the State of Delaware or any
other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the
State of Delaware.


34





Section 9.6     Submission to Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.

(a)     The Parties hereby irrevocably submit to the personal jurisdiction of the
Delaware Court of Chancery, and appellate courts having jurisdiction of appeals from such court,
or, if such court is not available, in any state or federal court located in the State of Delaware.
The Parties hereby consent to and grant any such court exclusive jurisdiction over the person of
such Parties and, to the extent permitted by law, the exclusive jurisdiction over the subject matter
of such dispute and agree that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such
action or proceeding in the manner provided in Section 9.2 or in such other manner as may be
permitted by Law shall be valid and sufficient service thereof.

(b)     EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY
CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO
INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH
PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT
SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION
DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE
TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES
AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (i) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF
ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH
OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE
THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (ii) EACH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS
CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (iii) EACH PARTY MAKES THIS
WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (iv) EACH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER
INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND
CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.6.

Section 9.7     Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable
and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity or
enforceability of the other provisions hereof. If any provision of this Agreement, or the
application of such provision to any Person or any circumstance, is invalid or unenforceable,
(a) a suitable and equitable provision shall be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as
may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid or unenforceable provision
and (b) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or
circumstances shall not be affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, nor shall such
invalidity or unenforceability affect the validity or enforceability of such provision, or the
application of such provision, in any other jurisdiction.

Section 9.8    Assignment. No assignment of this Agreement or of any rights or
obligations hereunder may be made by any Party, directly or indirectly (by operation of Law or
otherwise), without the prior written consent of the other Parties hereto and any attempted
assignment without the required consents shall be null, void and of no effect.

Section 9.9    Binding Effect; No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted
assigns. Nothing in this Agreement shall create or be deemed to create any third party


35





beneficiary rights in any Person not a Party to this Agreement except as contemplated by Section
8.2 or Section 8.3.

Section 9.10     Specific Performance. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that any
breach of this Agreement would give rise to irreparable harm for which monetary damages
would not be an adequate remedy. Each Party accordingly agrees that, in addition to any other
remedies available under applicable Law or this Agreement, each Party shall be entitled to
enforce the terms of this Agreement by decree of specific performance without the necessity of
posting a bond or proving the inadequacy of monetary damages as a remedy and to obtain
injunctive relief against any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement. The Parties agree
not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to law or
inequitable for any reason, nor to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an
adequate remedy.

Section 9.11     Counterparts.     This Agreement may be executed in one or more
counterparts, including facsimile or pdf counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an
original copy of this Agreement and all of which, when taken together, shall be deemed to
constitute one and the same agreement.

Section 9.12     Additional Definitions.

This Agreement hereby supersedes and preempts the Original Agreement in all respects, and the

ARTICLE II
CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS; ISSUANCES OF SHARES

2.01     Shares Generally.

(a)     All interests of the Members in Distributions and other amounts specified
in this Agreement, as well as the rights of the Members to vote on, consent to or approve any
matter for which a vote of Members is required under this Agreement or the Act, shall be
denominated in shares of membership interests in the Company (each a “Share” and
collectively, the “Shares”), and the relative rights, privileges, preferences and obligations of the
Members with respect to Shares shall be determined under this Agreement to the extent provided
herein. As of the date of this Agreement, the classes of Shares that the Company is authorized to
issue are as follows: “Class A-1-A Preferred Shares”, “Class A-1-B Preferred Shares
(collectively with the Class A-1-A Preferred Shares, the “Class A-1 Preferred Shares”),
Class A-2 Preferred Shares”, “Class B Common Shares”, “Class C Common Shares” and
Class D Common Shares”. Subject to the limitations (in each case to the extent applicable) set
forth in Section 2.02, Section 2.06 and Section 6.13, the Company may, from time to time
following the date of this Agreement, create and issue other classes and series of Shares or
Equity Securities. Subject to approval by the Board of Directors, the Company is hereby
authorized to issue an unlimited number of Class A-1-A Preferred Shares, Class A-1-B Preferred
Shares, Class A-2 Preferred Shares, Class B Common Shares, Class C Common Shares, Class D
Common Shares and any new class or series of Shares or Equity Securities in the Company. The
Company may issue fractional Shares, and all Shares shall be rounded to the nearest fourth
decimal place. Ownership of a Share (or a fraction thereof) shall not entitle a Member to call for
a partition or division of any property of the Company or for any accounting.




3




(b)     The Members, their respective Commitments and Capital Contributions
and their respective classes and numbers of Shares issued, sold, granted or Transferred to them
shall be set forth on a ledger maintained by the Company (the “Members Schedule”), as the
same may be amended and restated from time to time in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement. Absent manifest error, the ownership interests recorded on the Members Schedule
shall be a conclusive record of the Shares that are issued and outstanding.

(c)     A partial copy of the Members Schedule as of the date of this Agreement
showing only the aggregate number of each class of Shares held by the Members (but not any
identifying information about the Persons holding any Shares) was provided to SVF prior to the
execution of the Purchase Agreement. Any amendment or revision to the Members Schedule
made to reflect an action taken in accordance with this Agreement shall not be deemed an
amendment to this Agreement. A current copy of the Members Schedule shall be held in
confidence by the Company and maintained in a separate file conspicuously marked as
confidential. A redacted version of the Members Schedule shall be made available to any
Member at the request of such Member, which such redacted version will show only the Shares
held by such Member and the aggregate number of issued and outstanding Shares held by other
Members (and not, for clarity, any other identifying information about any other Person holding
Shares). Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the GM Investor and SoftBank shall be entitled
to request a full and complete unredacted copy of the Members Schedule from time to time.

2.02      Class A Preferred Shares; Class C Common Shares.

(a)     Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, and subject to the terms and
conditions thereof, SoftBank has committed to make, and substantially concurrently with the
execution of this Agreement SoftBank has made, Capital Contributions totaling $900,000,000 in
the aggregate (the “SoftBank Commitment”), pursuant to which the Company has issued to
SoftBank 900,000 Class A-1-A Preferred Shares.

(b)
(i)     At any time that the Company determines, acting in good faith,
that it is reasonably likely to be ready to commercially deploy vehicles in fully driverless
operation (the date of readiness for such initial deployment, the “Commercial Deployment”)
within the following one hundred twenty (120) day period, the Company shall be entitled to
deliver written notice of such determination to SoftBank (it being understood that delivery of
such written notice (or failure to deliver such written notice) shall not be binding in any respect
and the failure of Commercial Deployment to occur on such timetable shall not constitute a
breach of this Agreement by any Member or the Company). Following delivery of any such
written notification, the Company and SoftBank (each acting reasonably and in good faith) will
cooperate to identify and mutually agree upon, as promptly as reasonably practicable, whether
any approvals, consents, registrations, permits or authorizations (or the expiration of any waiting
periods) are required under the HSR Act or any comparable laws in any foreign jurisdiction (the
A-1-B Antitrust Approvals”) in connection with the issuance of Class A-1-B Preferred Shares
pursuant to Section 2.02(c).






4




(ii)     If any A-1-B Antitrust Approvals are identified and agreed
pursuant to Section 2.02(b)(i) then each Class A-1 Preferred Member and each Class A-2
Preferred Member will (and will cause its Affiliates to) (A) make (as promptly as reasonably
practicable) such notifications, registrations and filings necessary or advisable in connection with
obtaining the A-1-B Antitrust Approvals and (B) without limiting the foregoing, use its
reasonable best efforts to obtain (as promptly as reasonably practicable) the A-1-B Antitrust
Approvals. If the A-1-B Antitrust Approvals are not obtained (or, as applicable, any waiting
period has not expired or early termination of any waiting period has not been granted) prior to
end of the Payment Period, then the Payment Period will be extended until such A-1-B Antitrust
Approvals are obtained or until the waiting periods with respect to such A-1-B Antitrust
Approvals have expired or been terminated (as applicable); provided that, in order to obtain such
A-1-B Antitrust Approvals, (1) none of GM nor any of its Subsidiaries or other Affiliates shall
be required to offer or commit to hold separate, sell, divest or dispose, or suffer any restriction on
the operation, of any assets, properties or businesses of GM Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or
other Affiliates (including the Company), and (2) none of SoftBank nor any of its Subsidiaries or
other Affiliates shall be required to offer or commit to hold separate, sell, divest or dispose, or
suffer any restriction on the operation, management, or governance of, any assets, properties or
businesses of SoftBank or any portfolio companies (as such term is commonly understood in the
private equity industry) of SoftBank or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or, with the sole exception of
the Company, any companies in which SoftBank or any of SoftBank’s Subsidiaries or other
Affiliates hold a minority equity position.

(c)
(i)     Within three (3) Business Days of the date on which Commercial
Deployment has occurred, the Company will provide written notice to SoftBank and the GM
Investor of the same (such notice, the “CD Notice”). Subject to the satisfaction of the Second
Tranche Conditions, within fifty (50) days (or such shorter period contemplated by the
immediately following sentence) of the delivery of the CD Notice (such applicable period, the
Payment Period”), SoftBank will purchase and acquire from the Company, and the Company
will issue, sell and deliver to SoftBank, a number of Class A-1-B Preferred Shares equal to
$1,350,000,000 (the “Subsequent SoftBank Commitment”) divided by the Class A-1-B
Preferred Capital Value, in consideration for payment by SoftBank in full of such amount paid
by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the Company and
free and clear of any withholding. If GM, prior to the date that Commercial Deployment occurs,
confirms (by way of a binding and irrevocable written notice to SoftBank (the “Advance
Notice”)) the definitive date on which Commercial Deployment will occur, then the Payment
Period will be reduced by the aggregate number of days between the date the Advance Notice is
delivered to SoftBank in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the date of
Commercial Deployment; provided, that in no event will the Payment Period be reduced to fewer
than twenty five (25) days following the date on which Commercial Deployment occurs.

(ii)     If the Second Tranche Conditions have been satisfied but the
Subsequent SoftBank Commitment is not fully paid by start of the Business Day following the
final day of the Payment Period, then, automatically and without any further action by the
Company or any Member (and without any recourse by any Member): (A) the provisions of
Section 6.13(a) through 6.13(d) will be suspended and cease to apply for such time as any




5




amount of the Subsequent SoftBank Commitment is due and payable but remains unpaid, (B) the
Class A-1 Preferred Return will cease to accrue on each Class A-1 Preferred Share (with, subject
to the immediately following proviso, no catch-up right or right to be made whole if the
Subsequent SoftBank Commitment is later paid in full; provided, that if the Subsequent
SoftBank Commitment is paid in full within fifteen (15) days of the final day of the Payment
Period (such fifteen (15) day period, the “Cure Period”), each Class A-1 Preferred Share will be
entitled to the Class A-1 Preferred Return accrued during the period beginning on the final day of
the Payment Period and ending on the date that the Subsequent SoftBank Commitment is fully
paid), and (C) in the event that the Subsequent SoftBank Commitment is not paid in full by the
end of the Cure Period, the amendments to this Agreement contemplated by Sections 2.02(d)(i)
and Section 2.02(d)(ii) will apply and become effective from and after the final day of the Cure
Period.
(iii)     The remedies provided for in Section 2.02(c)(ii) are in addition to,
and not in limitation of, any other right of the Company or any other Member provided by law,
this Agreement or any other agreement entered into by or among any one or more of the
Members (or their Affiliates) or the Company (including any rights arising as a result of or in
connection with a breach by SVF, SVFA or SoftBank of their obligations under Section 5.1 of
the Purchase Agreement). Each Member further acknowledges that any actions taken or not
taken by the Company pursuant to Section 2.02(c)(ii) shall not constitute a breach of this
Agreement or any other duty stated or implied in law or equity to any Member.

(d)     If the CFIUS Condition has not been satisfied prior to the occurrence of
Commercial Deployment, then (without prejudice to the rights of GM or the Company arising as
a result of or in connection with any breach by SVF, SVFA or SoftBank of their obligations
under Section 5.1 of the Purchase Agreement) upon the occurrence of Commercial Deployment,
automatically and without any further action by the Company or any Member (and without any
recourse by any Member):

(i)     the Class A-1 Preferred Return will (effective on and after the date
of Commercial Deployment) be permanently reduced from a rate of seven percent (7%) per
annum to a rate of three and a half percent (3.5%) per annum;

(ii)     the denominator in the definition of A-1-A Preferred Share
Conversion Ratio will be permanently increased from $1,000 to $1,600;

(iii)     the conversion ratio for the Class A-2 Preferred Shares pursuant to
Section 2.10(a), Section 9.07(a)(i), Section 9.10(a), clause (ii) of the definition of “Control
Period”, the definition of “Floor Amount”, clause (i) of the definition of “Optional SoftBank
Conversion Share Price”, the definition of “Per Class A-1 Preferred Share FMV” and clause (i)
of the definition of “Preemptive Proportion” shall be adjusted from a 1:1 ratio to 0.625 of a Class
C Common Share per one Class A-2 Preferred Share (as adjusted, as necessary, to reflect
appropriate and proportional adjustments to take into account any subdivision, reorganization,
reclassification, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, combination of shares or similar
event); and

(iv)     Section 6.13(c) will be amended to read, in its entirety, as follows:




6




“issue any Equity Securities that have rights, preferences or privileges with
respect to Distributions, senior to the rights of the Class A-1 Preferred Shares in
Sections 3.01(b)(i) or 3.02(a)(i) (“Senior Securities”); provided, that this
Section 6.13(c) will not apply to the first $1,350,000,000 of new Senior Securities
issued after the occurrence of Commercial Deployment (with such amount being
calculated based on the consideration paid by the recipient(s) of such Senior
Securities);”.

(e)     Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and the IPMA, and subject to the
terms and conditions thereof, GM has (i) committed to make, and prior to the execution of this
Agreement has made, (A) a Capital Contribution totaling $1,100,000,000 in the aggregate and
(B) a contribution of the Transferred Entities (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) pursuant to
the Restructuring (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) and (ii) agreed to grant certain rights to
the Company under the IPMA (together with the contributions in clause (i), the “GM
Commitment”), in exchange for which the Company has issued to GM 1,100,000 Class A-2
Preferred Shares and 5,500,000 Class C Common Shares.

2.03 Class B Common Shares.

(a)     Awards of Class B Common Shares (“Share Awards”), options to
purchase Class B Common Shares (“Options”) and rights to receive Class B Common Shares
(“RSUs”, and collectively with Share Awards and Options, “Equity Awards”) may be granted
or issued, as applicable, on or after the date hereof to Employee Members pursuant to the terms
of a Share Grant Agreement and in accordance with the 2018/2019 Incentive Plan or any
successor employee incentive plan.

(b)     With respect to Fiscal Years 2018 and 2019, the Company may grant or
issue to Employee Members (pursuant to Share Grant Agreements) Equity Awards that may be
issued, exercised or settled into, in the aggregate, up to that maximum number of Class B
Common Shares set forth in the 2018/2019 Incentive Plan. From and after Fiscal Year 2020, the
Company (acting upon the approval of the Board of Directors) may issue additional Equity
Awards to Employee Members.

(c)     The Board of Directors shall have the authority to determine the terms and
conditions of the Share Grant Agreement to be executed by any Employee Members in
connection with the grant of Equity Awards to such Employee Members (including terms and
conditions relating to vesting, forfeiture, options to purchase and/or sell Class B Common Shares
upon termination of employment and purchase prices and terms of any purchase and/or sale with
respect thereto).

(d)     Each Share Grant Agreement with respect to Equity Awards is intended to
qualify as a compensatory benefit plan within the meaning of Rule 701 of the Securities Act and
the issuance of Class B Common Shares, from time to time, pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement and the applicable Share Grant Agreement is intended to qualify for the exemption
from registration under the Securities Act provided by Rule 701 thereof; provided, that, subject
to Section 2.03(b), the foregoing shall not restrict or limit the Company’s ability to issue any
Class B Common Shares pursuant to any other exemption from registration under the Securities



7




Act available to the Company and to designate any such issuance as not being subject to
Rule 701.

(e)     Subject, in each case, to the terms and conditions of the applicable Share
Grant Agreement:

(i)     Class B Common Shares that would be issued as a result of the
exercise of a right to purchase pursuant to an issued Option shall be deemed, prior to their actual
issuance, to be issued unvested Class B Common Shares for the purposes of Section 3.01(b)(ii)
(and the holder of the Option shall be deemed a Class B Member solely for such purpose);
provided, that, for clarity, no Distributions will actually be made with respect to such deemed
unvested Class B Common Shares and Section 3.03 will not apply to such deemed unvested
Class B Common Shares; and

(ii)     Class B Common Shares that would be issued as a result of the
right to receive such Shares pursuant to an RSU shall be deemed, prior to their actual issuance,
to be issued unvested Class B Common Shares for the purposes of Sections 3.01(b)(ii) and
3.01(b)(iii) (and the holder of the RSU shall be deemed a Class B Member solely for such
purposes) and Section 3.03.

2.04     Other Contributions. No Member shall be required to make any contributions
to the Company other than the Capital Contributions as provided in this Article II or as otherwise
expressly set forth in this Agreement. Subject to Section 2.06, the Company shall not accept any
Capital Contributions, other than Capital Contributions in respect of the Commitments, from a
Member or any other Person unless the terms and conditions of any such Capital Contribution
and related issuance of Shares have been approved by the Board of Directors.

2.05     Issuances of Shares. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement
(including Section 2.02, Section 2.06 and Section 6.13), the Board of Directors shall have sole
and complete discretion in determining whether to issue any Equity Securities, the number and
type of Equity Securities to be issued (including the creation of new series or classes of Shares)
at any particular time and all other terms and conditions governing any such Equity Securities
(including the issuance thereof); provided, that (a) the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that
the Subsequent SoftBank Commitment shall be on the terms set forth in this Agreement and shall
not require any additional approval of the Board of Directors and (b) the Company shall not issue
any Equity Securities (whether denominated as Shares or otherwise) to any Person unless such
Person shall have agreed to be bound by this Agreement and shall have executed such documents
or instruments as the Board of Directors determines to be necessary or appropriate to effect such
Person’s admission as a Member.

2.06     Preemptive Rights.

(a)     Except as provided in Section 2.06(e) or Section 2.06(f), if the Company
wishes to issue any Equity Securities to any Person or Persons (all such Equity Securities,
collectively, the “New Securities”), then the Company shall promptly deliver a written notice of
intention to sell (the “Company’s Notice of Intention to Sell”) to each holder of Preemptive
Shares setting forth a description of the New Securities to be sold, the proposed purchase price,



8




the aggregate number of New Securities to be sold and the terms and conditions of sale. Upon
receipt of the Company’s Notice of Intention to Sell, each holder of Preemptive Shares shall
have the right, during the Acceptance Period, to elect to purchase, at the price and on the terms
and conditions stated in the Company’s Notice of Intention to Sell, up to the number of New
Securities equal to the product of (i) such holder’s Preemptive Proportion, multiplied by (ii) the
aggregate number of New Securities to be issued; provided, that if the New Securities consist of
more than one class, series or type of Equity Securities, then any holder of Preemptive Shares
who elects to purchase such New Securities pursuant to this Section 2.06 must purchase the same
proportionate mix of all of such securities; provided, further, that if the New Securities are issued
in connection with any debt financing undertaken by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and
to which preemptive rights otherwise apply pursuant to this Section 2.06, then any Class A-1
Member or Class D Member who elects to purchase such New Securities pursuant to this
Section 2.06 must, to be eligible to receive such New Securities, participate in the underlying
debt instrument for such financing (A) with and on the same terms as the other lenders
thereunder and (B) in the same percentage as their Preemptive Proportion of New Securities that
such Member wishes to purchase pursuant to this Section 2.06. If one or more holders of
Preemptive Shares do not elect to purchase their entire share of the New Securities (such
aggregate portion of New Securities that has not been so elected, the “Excess New Securities”),
then the Company will offer, by written notice (the “Supplemental Notice of Intention to
Sell”), to each holder of Preemptive Shares who has elected to purchase his, her or its entire
proportion of the New Securities pursuant to this Section 2.06 the right to elect to purchase, at
the price and on the terms and conditions stated in the Company’s Notice of Intention to Sell,
their Preemptive Proportion (calculated as if the Total Conversion Shares excludes all Shares of
each holder of Preemptive Shares that did not elect to purchase their entire share of the New
Securities) of the Excess New Securities such that all of the Excess New Securities may be
purchased by such holders, if so elected. All elections under this Section 2.06(a) must be made
by written notice to the Company within fifteen (15) days (or such later date determined by the
Board of Directors) after receipt by such holder of Preemptive Shares of (as applicable) the
Company’s Notice of Intention to Sell or the Supplemental Notice of Intention to Sell (the
Acceptance Period”).

(b)     If the holders of Preemptive Shares have not elected to purchase all of the
New Securities described in a Company’s Notice of Intention to Sell, then the Company may, at
its election, during the period of ninety (90) days immediately following the expiration of the
Acceptance Period therefor (or the expiration of the Acceptance Period relating to the
Supplemental Notice of Intention to Sell, if the same is issued), sell and issue any of the New
Securities not elected for purchase pursuant to Section 2.06(a) to any Person(s) at a price and
upon terms and conditions no more favorable, in the aggregate, to such Person(s) than those
stated in the Company’s Notice of Intention to Sell.

(c)     In the event the Company has not sold the New Securities to be issued
within such ninety (90) day period, the Company shall not thereafter issue or sell any such New
Securities without once again offering such securities to each holder of Preemptive Shares in the
manner provided in Section 2.06(a).

(d)     If a holder of Preemptive Shares elects to purchase any of the New
Securities, payment therefor shall be made by wire transfer against delivery of such New



9




Securities at the principal office of the Company within fifteen (15) days of such election unless
a later date is mutually agreed between the Company and such holder of Preemptive Shares;
provided, that if SoftBank elects to purchase any of the New Securities, to the extent necessary in
order to accommodate the time required to call capital to purchase the Preemptive Shares,
payment therefor shall be made by wire transfer against delivery of such New Securities at the
principal office of the Company within thirty five (35) days of such election by SoftBank.

(e)     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) no holder
of Preemptive Shares shall have a right to purchase New Securities pursuant to this Section 2.06,
if such purchase will, in the good faith determination of the Board of Directors, violate any
applicable laws (whether or not such violation may be cured by a filing of a registration
statement or any other special disclosure) and (ii) in lieu of offering any New Securities to any
holder of Preemptive Shares prior to the time such New Securities are offered or sold to any
other Person or Persons, the Company may comply with the provisions of this Section 2.06 by
first issuing New Securities to such other Person or Persons, and promptly after such issuance (or
acceptance) (and, in any event, within thirty (30) days thereafter) making an offer to sell (or
causing such other Person or Persons to offer to sell), to the holders of Preemptive Shares, New
Securities in such a manner so as to enable such holders of Preemptive Shares to effectively
exercise their respective rights pursuant to Section 2.06(a) with respect to their purchase, for
cash, of such New Securities as they would have been entitled to purchase pursuant to
Section 2.06(a).

(f)     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.06, the
preemptive rights contained in this Section 2.06 shall not apply to:

(i)     any Equity Securities issued pursuant to the funding of the GM
Commitment, the SoftBank Commitment and the Subsequent SoftBank Commitment;

(ii)     any Equity Securities issued pursuant to Sections 2.09 or 2.10;

(iii)     any Class B Common Shares that may be issued to Employee
Members, including upon the exercise or settlement of any Equity Award;

(iv)     any Equity Securities issued in connection with an IPO (including
pursuant to Section 9.10(c)); and

(v)     any Equity Securities issued upon any subdivision, split,
recapitalization, reclassification, combination or similar reorganization.

2.07     Certificates. The Company may, but shall not be required to, issue certificates
representing Shares (“Certificated Shares”).

2.08     Repurchase Rights. If an Employee Member ceases to be employed by or
provide services to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any reason, then the Company
shall have the right (but not the obligation) to repurchase all or any portion of the Class B
Common Shares held by such Employee Member and his or her Permitted Transferees and not
otherwise forfeited (pursuant to this Agreement, the relevant employee incentive plan in place at
the time or the applicable Share Grant Agreement or other agreement (or agreements) with the


10




Company) at a price per Class B Common Share specified by, on the timeline provided by, and
otherwise on the terms and conditions contained within, a Share Grant Agreement or other
agreement (or agreements) between an Employee Member and the Company.

2.09     Optional A-1 Conversion.

(a)     Each Class A-1 Preferred Member shall have the right, at such Member’s
option, at any time and from time to time to convert all or any portion of the Class A-1 Preferred
Shares held by such Member into Class D Common Shares by providing the Company with
written notice of such conversion. A conversion of Class A-1 Preferred Shares pursuant to this
Section 2.09(a) shall be effective as of the close of business on the first (1st) Business Day after
the Company’s receipt of the conversion notice.

(b)     In connection with any conversion pursuant to Section 2.09(a), (i) each
Class A-1-A Preferred Share will be converted into Class D Common Shares at the A-1-A
Preferred Share Conversion Ratio and (ii) each Class A-1-B Preferred Share will be converted
into Class D Common Shares at the A-1-B Preferred Share Conversion Ratio.

(c)     Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each Class A-
1 Preferred Share that has been converted into a Class D Common Share under this Section 2.09
shall cease to have the rights, preferences and privileges provided under this Agreement for the
Class A-1 Preferred Shares and shall thereafter be treated as a Class D Common Share for all
purposes.

2.10     Optional A-2 Conversion.

(a)     Each Class A-2 Preferred Member shall have the right, at such Member’s
option, at any time and from time to time, to convert all or any portion of the Class A-2 Preferred
Shares held by such Member into Class C Common Shares, at a 1:1 ratio (as adjusted to reflect
appropriate and proportional adjustments to take into account any subdivision, reorganization,
reclassification, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, combination of shares or similar
event) by providing the Company with written notice of such conversion. A conversion of
Class A-2 Preferred Shares pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be effective as of the close of
business on the first (1st) Business Day after the Company’s receipt of the conversion notice.

(b)     Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each Class A-
2 Preferred Share that has been converted into a Class C Common Share under this Section 2.10
shall cease to have the rights, preferences and privileges provided under this Agreement for the
Class A-2 Preferred Shares and shall thereafter be treated as a Class C Common Share for all
purposes.

ARTICLE III
DISTRIBUTIONS

3.01     Distributions.

(a)     Except as otherwise expressly contemplated by this Agreement, all
Distributions shall be made to the Persons who are the holders of Shares at the time such
Distributions are made.

(b)     Subject to Section 3.02 and Section 3.03, and in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 3.01, Distributions pursuant to this Article III shall be made Quarterly
in arrears (on the final day of each Quarter) in the following order of priority:

(i)     First, Distributions shall be made to the Class A-1 Preferred
Members in respect of their Class A-1 Preferred Shares (ratably among such Members based
upon, for the relevant Quarter, the aggregate Class A-1 Preferred Return with respect to the
Class A-1 Preferred Shares held by each such Member immediately prior to such Distribution)
until each Class A-1 Preferred Member has received Distributions in respect of such Member’s
Class A-1 Preferred Shares in an amount equal to the aggregate Class A-1 Preferred Return for
such Quarter (and not, for clarity, the full Class A-1 Preferred Unpaid Return) with respect to the
Class A-1 Preferred Shares held by such Class A-1 Preferred Member immediately prior to such
Distribution. The Company may, at its option, with respect to all or any portion of the
Distributions on the Class A-1-A Preferred Shares and Class A-1-B Preferred Shares pursuant to
this Section 3.01(b)(i) for any Quarter, elect to pay such Distribution in (i) cash or (ii) by the
accretion (with respect to such Quarter) of the Class A-1 Preferred Return on such Shares (which
such accretion in the Class A-1 Preferred Return, and resultant increase in the Class A-1
Preferred Unpaid Return for such Shares, shall constitute a Distribution hereunder).

(ii)     Second, Distributions shall be made to the Junior Members until
the cumulative amount received in cash by each of the Members pursuant to this Section
3.01(b)(ii) and Section 3.01(b)(i) with respect to all such Distributions made after the date of this
Agreement to the relevant calculation date (including, for clarity, any Distributions made in such
applicable Quarter pursuant to Section 3.01(b)(i)), equals the amount such Member would have
received if all such Distributions had been distributed ratably on an as-converted basis (for the
purpose of such calculation with the Class A-1 Preferred Shares being deemed converted to
Class D Common Shares pursuant to Section 2.09(b)) among such Members based upon the
number of Junior Interests held by each such Junior Member and the number of Class A-1
Preferred Shares held by each such Class A-1 Preferred Member, in each case, immediately prior
to such Distribution. For the avoidance of doubt, the Class A-1 Preferred Shares shall not be
entitled to any Distributions pursuant to this Section 3.01(b)(ii).

(iii)     Third, all further Distributions shall be made to each Junior
Member and Class A-1 Preferred Member ratably on an as-converted basis among such
Members based upon the number of Junior Interests held by each such Junior Member and the
number of Class A-1 Preferred Shares held by each such Class A-1 Preferred Member, in each
case, immediately prior to such Distribution; provided, that, for the purposes of this Section
3.01(b)(iii), the Class A-1 Preferred Shares shall be deemed converted to Class D Common



12




Shares pursuant to Section 2.09(b) without (for the purposes of calculating such conversion) any
reduction in the Class A-1-A Preferred Unpaid Return or Class A-1-B Preferred Unpaid Return
due to Distributions for such Quarter made pursuant to this Section 3.01(b)(iii).

(c)     No later than five (5) Business Days prior to the end of each Quarter, the
Company will send written notice to each Class A-1 Preferred Member stating whether the
Distribution pursuant to Section 3.01(b)(i) for such Quarter will be paid in cash. If the Company
fails to timely send such written notice then, with respect to such Quarter, the Company will be
deemed to have irrevocably elected to pay the Distribution pursuant to Section 3.01(b)(i) by the
accretion of the Class A-1 Preferred Return. For clarity, (i) the Company may elect,
independently as to each class, to pay cash Distributions with respect to a Quarter on either, or
both, of the Class A-1-A Preferred Shares and Class A-1-B Preferred Shares and (ii) so long as
the full Distribution has been made on each Class A-1 Preferred Share pursuant to Section
3.01(b)(i), the Company may (but shall not be required to) make Distributions pursuant to
Section 3.01(b)(ii) and Section 3.01(b)(iii).

(d)     No distributions shall be made in respect of a Vested Class B Common
Share pursuant to Section 3.01(b)(ii), Section 3.01(b)(iii) or Section 3.02(a)(iii), until such time
that an aggregate amount of Distributions (since the date of grant of such Class B Common
Share) pursuant to Section 3.01(b) or 3.02(a), as applicable, equal to the Class B Floor Amount
shall have been Distributed on each Class C Common Share. For the avoidance of doubt, no
holder of any Class B Common Share will later have the right to receive any amount foregone
pursuant to the preceding sentence of this Section 3.01(d).

(e)     Any reference in this agreement to a Distribution to a Substituted Member
shall include any Distributions previously made to the predecessor Member on account of the
interest of such predecessor Member transferred to such Substituted Member.

(f)     Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this
Agreement the Company shall not make any Distribution to Members if such Distribution would
violate Section 18-607 of the Act or other applicable law.

3.02     Distributions Upon Liquidation or a Deemed Liquidation Event.

(a)     Notwithstanding Section 3.01, upon a liquidation (pursuant to Article X)
or a Deemed Liquidation Event, the Company shall distribute the net proceeds or assets available
for distribution, whether in cash or in other property, to the Members as follows:

(i)     First, Class A-1 Preferred Members shall receive, on a pro rata
basis (proportional to their share of the aggregate Class A-1 Liquidation Preference Amount for
all Class A-1 Preferred Shares) for each Class A-1 Preferred Share, the greater of (A) for each
Class A-1 Preferred Share held by such Class A-1 Preferred Member, the applicable Class A-1
Liquidation Preference Amount, and (B) the amount distributable pursuant to Section 3.02(a)(iii)
with respect to such Class A-1 Preferred Share as if such Share had converted into a Class D
Common Share (pursuant to Section 2.09) immediately prior to the event giving rise to a
Distribution pursuant to this Section 3.02.




13




(ii)     Second, Class A-2 Preferred Members shall receive, for each
Class A-2 Preferred Share, the greater of (A) the Class A-2 Liquidation Preference Amount and
(B) the amount distributable pursuant to Section 3.02(a)(iii) with respect to such Class A-2
Preferred Share as if such Share had converted into a Class C Common Share (pursuant to
Section 2.10) immediately prior to the event giving rise to a Distribution pursuant to this
Section 3.02.

(iii)     Third, to Junior Members (other than the Class A-2 Preferred
Members), ratably among such Members based upon the number of Junior Interests held by each
such Junior Member (other than Class A-2 Preferred Shares).

(b)     A “Deemed Liquidation Event” shall occur upon either of a Sale of the
Company or a Drag-Along Sale Transaction.

3.03     Unvested Class B Common Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary, (a) no Distribution shall be made in respect of any Class B Common
Share that is not a Vested Class B Common Share, (b) any amount that would otherwise be
distributable in cash in respect of a Class B Common Share pursuant to Section 3.01 or
Section 3.02 but for the fact that such Class B Common Share is not a Vested Class B Common
Share shall be withheld by the Company and Distributed with respect to such Class B Common
Share, without interest, at the time of the first cash Distribution to the Junior Members following
the date on which such Class B Common Share becomes a Vested Class B Common Share and
(c) if a Class B Common Share that is not a Vested Class B Common Share is repurchased or
forfeited (or otherwise becomes incapable of vesting), then such Class B Common Share shall
not be entitled to receive or retain any Distributions.

3.04     Distributions In-Kind. Distributions of property other than cash, including
securities (but, for the avoidance of doubt, Distributions in respect of the Class A-1 Preferred
Shares pursuant to Section 3.01(b)(i) shall not include stock or securities issued by the Company
and may only be made in cash or accretion pursuant to Section 3.01(b)(i)), may be made under
this Agreement with the approval of the Board of Directors. Distributions of property other than
cash shall be valued at Fair Market Value. Except as otherwise required by the Act or this
Agreement, and subject in all respects to Section 3.01 and Section 3.02, no Member shall be
entitled to Distributions of property other than cash and the Board of Directors may make a
determination to distribute property to one Member or group of Members and cash to the
remaining Members so long as no Member is adversely affected in a manner which is
disproportionate to the other Members as a result of such determination.

ARTICLE IV
TAX MATTERS

4.01     Corporate Status. The Members intend that the Company be treated as a
corporation for U.S. federal, and, as applicable, state and local, income tax purposes, and neither
the Company nor any of the Members shall take any reporting position inconsistent with such
treatment. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company has elected, pursuant to Treasury
Regulations Section 301.7701-3(c), to be treated as an association taxable as a corporation,
effective as of May 23, 2018. The Company will not make any other entity classification



14





elections with respect to the Company without the prior written consent of all Members;
provided that an entity classification may be made to treat the Entity as an association taxable as
a corporation without any such consent.

4.02     Withholding.     The Company is authorized to withhold from any payment made
to a Member any amounts required to be withheld by the Company under applicable law and, if
so required, remit any such amounts to the applicable governmental authority. Upon request by
the Company in writing, each Member shall provide the Company with a properly completed
and duly executed Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-9 or applicable IRS Form W-8, or
any other information, form or certificate reasonably necessary to determine whether and the
extent to which any such withholding is required. If the Company, or the Board of Directors or
any Affiliate of the Company, becomes liable as a result of a failure to withhold and remit taxes
in respect of any Member and such failure was attributable to such Member’s failure to timely
provide the Company with the appropriate information requested in writing by the Company
regarding such Member’s tax status or tax payment obligations, then such Member shall
indemnify and hold harmless the Company, or the Board of Directors or any Affiliate of the
Company, as the case may be, in respect of any such tax that should have been withheld and
remitted (including any interest or penalties assessed or imposed thereon and any expenses
incurred in any examination, determination, resolution and payment of such tax) but was not so
withheld and remitted as a result of such Member’s failure to timely provide the Company with
such information. The provisions contained in this Section 4.02 shall survive the termination of
the Company and the withdrawal of any Member.

4.03     Tax Sharing.

(a)     GM Consolidated Group.     For the 2018 Tax Period of the GM
Consolidated Group, the Company shall timely deliver to GM Parent a properly completed and
duly executed IRS Form 1122 (Authorization and Consent of Subsidiary Corporation To Be
Included in a Consolidated Income Tax Return) and any similar or corresponding forms required
for state or local income or franchise tax purposes. The Company acknowledges and agrees that
GM Parent shall act as sole agent (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-
77) for the Company with respect to any Tax Period for which the Company joins one or more
members of the GM Consolidated Group in filing a GM Consolidated Return, provided that the
GM Investor shall cause GM Parent to not take any action with respect to any tax matters,
including any action in its role as sole agent (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section
1.1502-77) that has a material and disproportionate adverse impact on (i) the Company (ii) prior
to the one-time Transfer permitted by Section 9.02(c), SoftBank or (iii) after the one-time
Transfer permitted by Section 9.02(c), SVFA, without the Company’s, SoftBank’s or SVFA’s
consent, as applicable, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(b)     Payment from the GM Investor to the Company for Use of Company
NOLs and Tax Credits.

(i)     If upon a Deconsolidation the NOL Deficit Amount exceeds zero,
the GM Investor shall pay to the Company, with respect to each Tax Period of the Company, the
Excess NOL Tax Increase with respect to such Tax Period. The GM Investor shall pay the
Excess NOL Tax Increase with respect to each such Tax Period no later than ten (10) Business


15





Days following delivery of written notice by the Company to the GM Investor of the amount of
Excess NOL Tax Increase for such Tax Period.

(ii)     In addition to the payments described in Section 4.03(b)(i) above
(and without duplication of such payments or any other payments required to be made by the
GM Investor hereunder), the GM Investor shall make payments to the Company with respect to
any R&D Tax Credits or Other Tax Credits generated by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
in the same manner and using the same principles as described in Section 4.03(b)(i) and in the
definitions of NOL Deficit Amount and Hypothetical Deconsolidated Company NOL Amount;
provided, however, that in applying such principles, (A) clause (ii) of the definition of NOL
Deficit Amount shall not apply and (B) in applying the Company standalone concept of the
Hypothetical Deconsolidated Company NOL Amount, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be
assumed to utilize the same tax accounting methods, elections, conventions, practices, policies
and principles regarding the R&D Tax Credits or Other Tax Credits actually utilized by the GM
Consolidated Group and the Company and its Subsidiaries shall otherwise be assumed to take
into account the GM Consolidated Group’s history in its use of R&D Tax Credits or Other Tax
Credits; provided, further, that no such payment with respect to Other Tax Credits will be
required unless and until such Other Tax Credits generated by the Company and its Subsidiaries
exceed, in the aggregate, taking into account any Other Tax Credits referenced in Section
4.03(e), $12,000,000 with respect to any calendar year.

(iii)     The GM Investor and its advisors shall calculate the NOL Deficit
Amount and the deficit amount in respect of R&D Tax Credits and Other Tax Credits upon a
Deconsolidation and shall deliver such calculations, certified by the chief tax officer of GM
Parent, to the Company and, subject to Section 4.03(f), such calculations shall be conclusive,
binding and final for all purposes. The Company shall calculate the Excess NOL Tax Increase
and the tax increase in respect of R&D Tax Credits and Other Tax Credits in each Tax Period
and shall deliver such calculations, certified by the chief tax officer of the Company, along with
reasonably detailed supporting documentation, to the GM Investor and, subject to Section
4.03(f), such calculation shall be conclusive, binding and final for all purposes.

(c)     Payment from the Company to the GM Investor for Inclusion of Company
Income.

(i)     Following the filing of the final GM Consolidated Return for each
Tax Period prior to a Deconsolidation, the Company shall calculate the Aggregate Company
Hypothetical Pre-Deconsolidation Tax Amount with respect to such Tax Period.

(ii)     Following the filing of the final GM Consolidated Return for each
Tax Period ending after the Closing Date, the GM Investor shall calculate the Incremental GM
Tax Amount. The GM Investor shall deliver to the Company a certification by the chief tax
officer of GM Parent with respect to such amount and such calculation shall be conclusive,
binding and final for all purposes. No certification shall be required in any year in which the
GM Investor has determined that the Incremental GM Tax Amount is zero.

(iii)     With respect to each Tax Period of the GM Consolidated Group
ending after the Closing Date, the Company shall make a payment to the GM Investor equal to


16





the excess, if any, of (A) the lesser of (1) the Aggregate Company Hypothetical Pre-
Deconsolidation Tax Amount with respect to such Tax Period and (2) the Incremental GM Tax
Amount with respect to such Tax Period over (B) the aggregate net payment made by the
Company to the GM Investor pursuant to this Section 4.03(c)(iii) and Section 4.03(c)(iv) for
prior Tax Periods.

(iv)     With respect to each Tax Period of the GM Consolidated Group
ending after the Closing Date, the GM Investor shall make a payment to the Company equal to
the excess, if any, of (A) the aggregate net payment made by the Company to the GM Investor
pursuant to Section 4.03(c)(iii) and this Section 4.03(c)(iv) for prior Tax Periods over (B) the
lesser of (1) the Aggregate Company Hypothetical Pre-Deconsolidation Tax Amount with
respect to such Tax Period and (2) the Incremental GM Tax Amount with respect to such Tax
Period;

(d)     Payments between GM Investor and the Company if a Section 59(e)
Election is Made. If prior to a Deconsolidation, GM makes one or more elections under Section
59(e) of the Code (a “Section 59(e) Election”) with respect to the Company and/or its
Subsidiaries, then:

(i)     with respect to each Tax Period for which a Section 59(e) Election
is made, and any subsequent Tax Period, any payment otherwise required to be made by the
Company to the GM Investor pursuant to Section 4.03(c) shall be (A) reduced (but not below
zero) by the Section 59(e) Detriment Amount with respect to such Tax Period and (B) shall be
increased by the Section 59(e) Benefit Amount with respect to such Tax Period; provided, any
adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.03(d)(i)(B) shall be deferred and shall only be made when
and to the extent that, immediately prior to giving effect to such adjustment, the aggregate
adjustments under Section 4.03(d)(i)(A) and Section 4.03(d)(ii)(A) exceed the aggregate
adjustments under this Section 4.03(d)(i)(B) and Section 4.03(d)(ii)(B); and

(ii)     with respect to each Tax Period for which a Section 59(e) Election
is made, and any subsequent Tax Period, any payment otherwise required to be made by the GM
Investor to the Company pursuant to Section 4.03(b) shall be (A) increased by the Section 59(e)
Detriment Amount with respect to such Tax Period and shall be (B) reduced (but not below zero)
by the Section 59(e) Benefit Amount with respect to such Tax Period; provided, any adjustment
pursuant to this Section 4.03(d)(ii)(B) shall be deferred and shall only be made when and to the
extent that, immediately prior to giving effect to such adjustment, the aggregate adjustments
under Section 4.03(d)(i)(A) and Section 4.03(d)(ii)(A) exceed the aggregate adjustments under
Section 4.03(d)(i)(B) and this Section 4.03(d)(ii)(B).

For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of Sections 4.03(d)(i) and (ii) above, a required
payment of $0 under Section 4.03(b) or Section 4.03(c) for any Tax Period constitutes a
“payment otherwise required to be made”.

(e)     State and Local Income and Franchise Taxes. With respect to state and
local income and franchise tax benefits and detriments in any jurisdictions that have
consolidated, combined or unitary tax regimes, the GM Investor and the Company shall have
similar payment obligations to each other, under the same principles, as the payment obligations


17





for U.S. federal income tax benefits and detriments described in paragraphs (b), (c) and (d) of
this Section 4.03; provided, that no such payment with respect to Other Tax Credits will be
required unless and until such Other Tax Credits generated by the Company and its Subsidiaries
exceed, in the aggregate, taking into account any Other Tax Credits referenced in Section
4.03(b)(ii), $12,000,000 with respect to any calendar year.

(f)     Dispute Resolution. In the event of any dispute between the GM Investor
and the Company as to any amount payable under this Section 4.03, the GM Investor and the
Company shall attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute. If the GM Investor and the
Company are unable to resolve such dispute within thirty (30) days, they shall jointly retain a
mutually agreed upon nationally recognized independent accounting firm (the “Accounting
Firm”) to resolve the dispute. The GM Investor and the Company may make written
submissions to the Accounting Firm, and the Accounting Firm’s resolution shall be based solely
upon the actual terms of this Agreement, the written submissions of the GM Investor and the
Company, and the application of federal income tax law (or, in the case of any payment
obligation Section 4.03(e), applicable state or local income tax law). Each of the GM Investor
and the Company shall be bound by the determination of the Accounting Firm and shall bear
one-half of the fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm.

(g)     Indemnification for Taxes.     Other than payments required under this
Agreement, the GM Investor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company and any of its
Subsidiaries from any Taxes (as such term is defined in the Purchase Agreement) imposed on the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-6 (or any
analogous or similar provision of U.S. state or local, or non-U.S. law) as a result of being a
member of (i) the GM Consolidated Group or (ii) any other affiliated, consolidated, combined or
unitary group of which (A) the GM Investor, (B) the GM Parent, (C) any Affiliate or direct or
indirect Subsidiary of the GM Parent (other than the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) or (D)
any member of the GM Consolidated Group (other than the Company or any of its Subsidiaries)
was a member prior to a Deconsolidation.

(h)     Net Payments. Without limiting any other provision in this Section 4.03,
if as of any date each of the GM Investor and the Company is obligated to make a payment to the
other under this Section 4.03, then the amount of such payments shall be netted, the offsetting
amounts shall be treated as having been paid by the applicable payors for all purposes of this
Section 4.03, and the party having the net payment obligation shall make such pay such net
amount to the other party.

(i)     Intended Tax Treatment. Any payments made by the GM Investor to the
Company following a Deconsolidation pursuant to this Section 4.03 shall be treated as a Capital
Contribution for all applicable tax purposes, unless otherwise required by applicable law. Any
payments made by the Company to the GM Investor following a Deconsolidation pursuant to
this Section 4.03 shall be treated as distribution under Section 301 of the Code for all applicable
tax purposes, unless otherwise required by applicable law.

(j)     Examples.     Any ambiguity in the provisions of this Section 4.03 shall
be resolved (where possible) by reference to the examples delivered by the GM Investor and
acknowledged by SVF and the Company pursuant to that certain letter provided to SVF prior to


18




the execution of the Purchase Agreement; provided, however, that in the event of a conflict with
such letter, this Section 4.03 shall control.

(k)     Consistent Reporting Covenant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, the Class A Preferred Shares are intended to be treated as common stock for all
purposes of the Code (and not as preferred stock within the meaning of Treasury Regulations
Section 1.305-5). Absent a relevant change in law or administrative, regulatory or judicial
authority or guidance, unless otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the
meaning of Section 1313 of the Code, neither the Company nor any of the Members shall report
any Distribution with respect to the Class A Preferred Shares that is paid by accretion of the
Class A-1 Preferred Return on such Shares (in accordance with Section 3.01(c) hereof) as a
taxable distribution pursuant to Section 305(b)(2) of the Code or take any position inconsistent
with the intended tax treatment described in this Section 4.03(k).

(l)     Audit Adjustments.     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in
the event there is an adjustment to any GM Consolidated Return or any Company tax return for
any Tax Period as a result of an audit, the computations described in this Section 4.03 will be
adjusted to reflect the results of such audit and any amounts payable hereunder shall be increased
or decreased to reflect the revised computations.

(m)     Tax Materials. For the avoidance of doubt, neither the Company nor any
other Member shall be permitted to review any of the GM Investor’s tax returns, workpapers or
other tax information (“Tax Materials”), or any Tax Materials of or related to the GM
Consolidated Group.

(n)     Definitions. For purposes of this Section 4.03, the following terms shall

(iii)     Deconsolidation” means any event pursuant to which the
Company ceases to be included in the GM Consolidated Group.

(iv)     Excess NOL Tax Increase” means, with respect to each Tax

and its Subsidiaries in respect of such Tax Period if upon a Deconsolidation the Company had an

accounting methods, elections, conventions, practices, policies and principles actually utilized by
the GM Consolidated Group and had closed its Tax Period as of the date of a Deconsolidation),
provided that Hypothetical Deconsolidated Company NOL Amount shall be reduced by the

Period, the excess, if any, of (A) the total U.S. federal income tax actually owed by the GM
Consolidated Group for such Tax Period and all prior Tax Periods ending after the Closing Date,
over (B) the total U.S. federal income tax that would have been owed by the GM Consolidated
Group for such Tax Period and all prior Tax Periods ending after the Closing Date had the
Company and its Subsidiaries never been members of the GM Consolidated Group, determined
on a with and without basis and ignoring any state apportionment differences resulting from the
inclusion of the Company and its Subsidiaries in the GM Consolidated Group; provided, the
amount in clause (A) shall be determined assuming any net operating losses for which the
Company has been compensated for pursuant to Section 4.03(b) were not available to the GM
Consolidated Group (determined by assuming that such net operating losses are the last losses
that would have otherwise been taken into account in clause (A)).

20




for purposes of determining such difference under (A) or (B) with respect to any Section 59(e)
Benefit Amount that corresponds to a prior correlative Section 59(e) Detriment Amount (using
the earliest Section 59(e) Detriment first), such Section 59(e) Benefit Amount shall be
determined assuming that the U.S. federal income tax rates applicable at the time of such Section
59(e) Detriment were still in effect.

(xiii) “Section 59(e) Detriment Amount” with respect to a Tax Period
means the amount by which the payment (A) required by the Company to GM under Section
4.03(c) for such Tax Period would have been less or (B) by GM to the Company under Section
4.03(b) would have been more, in each case, had no Section 59(e) Election been made.

(xiv) Tax Period” means a taxable year as defined in Section 441(b)
of the Code.

4.04    Transfer Taxes. Any Transfer Taxes (as defined in the Purchase Agreement)
incurred in connection with (i) any issuance of any equity interests to SoftBank, SVFA or any of
their Affiliates or Permitted Transferees pursuant to this Agreement or the Purchase Agreement
or (ii) the one-time Transfer permitted by Section 9.02(c) shall, in each case, be paid by
SoftBank or SVFA (as applicable) when due. The Company shall file all necessary tax returns
and other documentation with respect to all Transfer Taxes and, if required by applicable law,
the GM Investor and SoftBank or SVFA (as applicable) will, and will cause their Affiliates, to
join in the execution of any such tax returns and other documentation.

The provisions contained in this Article IV, and any payments required to be made pursuant
hereto, shall survive the termination of the Company and the withdrawal of any Member.

ARTICLE V
MEMBERS

5.01    Voting Rights of Members.    Subject to Section 2.02 and Section 9.10:

(a)    Each Class A-1 Preferred Member shall be entitled to ten (10) votes for
each Class A-1 Preferred Share held by such Member on any matter which is submitted to the
Members for a vote or consent.

(b)    Each Class A-2 Preferred Member shall be entitled to ten (10) votes for
each Class A-2 Preferred Share held by such Member on any matter which is submitted to the
Members for a vote or consent.

(c)    Each Class B Member shall be entitled to one (1) vote for each Class B
Common Share held by such Member on any matter which is submitted to the Members for a
vote or consent.

(d)    Each Class C Member shall be entitled to ten (10) votes for each Class C
Common Share held by such Member on any matter which is submitted to the Members for a
vote or consent.




21




(e)    Each Class D Member shall be entitled to one (1) vote for each Class D
Common Share held by such Member on any matter which is submitted to the Members for a
vote or consent.

(f) Each other class or series of Shares shall be entitled to such votes as the
Board of Directors shall determine with respect to such class or series on any matter which is
submitted to the Members for a vote or consent.

For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions and rights with respect to voting set forth in this
Section 5.01 and Section 6.03 are intended to provide GM with “control” of the Company as
defined in Section 368(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, and shall be
interpreted consistent therewith. Neither the Company nor any of the Members shall take any
reporting position inconsistent with the intended tax treatment described in this Section 5.01.

5.02    Quorum; Voting. A quorum shall be present with respect to a meeting of the
Members if a Majority of the Members are represented in person or by proxy at such meeting.
Once a quorum is present at a meeting of the Members, the subsequent withdrawal from the
meeting of any Member (other than the GM Investor, whose withdrawal from the meeting shall
cause a quorum to no longer be present) prior to the meeting’s adjournment or the refusal of any
Member to vote on any matter that is open to vote by the Members at the meeting shall not affect
the presence of a quorum at the meeting. Each of the Members hereby consents and agrees that
one or more Members may participate in a meeting of the Members by means of conference
telephone or similar communications equipment by which all Persons participating in the
meeting can hear each other at the same time, and such participation shall constitute presence in
person at the meeting. If a quorum is present, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the
affirmative vote of the Members representing a Majority of the Members represented at the
meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the Members.

5.03    Written Consent. Any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of
the Members may be taken without a meeting if the action is evidenced by a written consent
describing the action taken signed by a Majority of the Members. Action taken under this
Section 5.03 is effective when a Majority of the Members have signed the consent, unless the
consent specifies a different effective date. Promptly following the effectiveness of any action
taken by written consent by a Majority of the Members, the Company shall provide written
notice of such action to any Member who was otherwise entitled to vote on such matter or action
and whose consent was not solicited in connection therewith.

5.04    Meetings. Meetings of the Members may be called by (a) the Board of Directors
or (b) a Majority of the Members.

5.05    Place of Meeting. The Board of Directors may designate the place of meeting for
any annual meeting and the Person(s) calling a special meeting pursuant to Section 5.04 may
designate the place for such special meeting. If no designation is made, the place of meeting
shall be the principal office of the Company.

5.06    Notice of Meeting. Written notice stating the place, day and hour of the meeting
and, in case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called, shall



22





be provided to each Member not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the date of the
applicable meeting and otherwise in accordance with Section 12.06. Any Member may waive
notice of any meeting. The attendance of a Member at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of
notice of such meeting except where a Member attends a meeting for the express purpose of
objecting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or
convened. Neither the business to be transacted at nor the purpose of any regular meeting of
Members need be specified in the notice or waiver of notice of such meeting.

5.07    Withdrawal; Partition. No Member shall have the right to resign or withdraw as
a member of the Company. No Member shall have the right to seek or obtain partition by court
decree or operation of law of any Company property, or the right to own or use particular or
individual assets of the Company, except as may be expressly set forth in the Commercial
Agreements or any other written Agreement between such Member and the Company.

5.08    Business Opportunities; Performance of Duties.

(a)    Subject to Article XI and any agreement entered into with any Employee
Member, each Member and its Affiliates and its and their respective officers, directors,
equityholders, partners, members, managers, agents and employees (the “Member Group
Persons”) (i) is permitted to have, and may presently or in the future have, investments or other
business relationships with entities engaged in other, complementary or competing lines of
business other than through the Company and its Subsidiaries (an “Other Business”), (ii) may
have or may develop a strategic relationship with businesses that are and may be competitive or
complementary with the Company and its Subsidiaries, (iii) is not prohibited by virtue of their
investment in the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or, if applicable, their service on the Board
of Directors or the board of directors (or similar governing body) of any of the Company’s
Subsidiaries from pursuing and engaging in any such activities and (iv) is not obligated to inform
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of any such opportunity, relationship or investment.
Subject to Article XI and any agreement entered into with any Employee Member, the
involvement of any Member Group Person in any Other Business will not constitute a conflict of
interest by such Persons with respect to the Company or its Members or any of its Subsidiaries.

(b)    Without prejudice to Section 5.08(a), each Director shall, in his or her
capacity as a Director, and not in any other capacity, have the same fiduciary duties to the
Company and the Members as a director of a Delaware corporation; provided, that,
notwithstanding the foregoing:

(i)    the Directors shall not have, or be deemed to have, any duties or
implied duties (including fiduciary duties) to the Company or its Subsidiaries, any Member or
any other Person (and each Director may act in and consider the best interests of the Member
who designated such Director and shall not be required to act in or consider the best interests of
the Company and its Subsidiaries or the other Members) and any duties or implied duties
(including fiduciary duties) of a Director to any other Member or the Company or its
Subsidiaries that would otherwise apply at law or in equity are hereby disclaimed and eliminated
to the fullest extent permitted under the Act and any other applicable law, and each Member
hereby disclaims and waives all rights to, and releases each other Member and each Director



23




from, any such duties, in each case with respect to or in connection with any of the following
circumstances:

(A)    any transaction or arrangement, or any proposed transaction
or arrangement, between the Company or its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and SoftBank, SVFA
or any SoftBank Party, on the other hand, including the decision to engage, or not to engage in,
such transaction or arrangement; and

(B)    any decision to engage or not to engage in any transaction
or arrangement, or any proposed transaction or arrangement contemplated by the Transaction
Documents or the Commercial Agreements (as the same may be amended from time to time in
accordance with the provisions thereof), or which is otherwise on terms consistent with the
Commercial Agreements; and
    
(C)    the issuance of Equity Securities to the GM Investor or any
of its Affiliates pursuant to Section 2.05; and

(ii)    without limiting the requirements of Section 6.13(b), in connection
with any transaction or arrangement, or any proposed transaction or arrangement, between the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and GM or any of its Affiliates, on the
other hand, (A) there will be no requirement for any non-Independent Director to approve such a
transaction or for any independent or non-Board of Director review process, and (B) such
transaction or arrangement and decision of the Board of Directors in connection therewith shall
not be subject to any heightened standard of review or approval (including any review under an
“entire fairness” standard).

(c)    To the maximum extent permitted by law, no Member Group Person
(other than any Director in their capacity as the same to the extent expressly provided in this
Agreement) shall owe any fiduciary or similar duties or obligations to the Company or its
Subsidiaries, the Members or any Person, and any such duties (fiduciary or otherwise) of such
Member Group Person are intended to be modified and limited to those expressly set forth in this
Agreement, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities
shall be read into this Agreement or exist against any such Member Group Person. For purposes
of clarification and the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained
in this Section 5.08 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall, nor shall it be deemed to, eliminate (i)
the obligation of the Members to act in compliance with the express terms of this Agreement,
any Transaction Document or any Commercial Agreement, or (ii) the implied contractual
covenant of good faith and fair dealing of the Members.

(d)    In performing its, his or her duties, each of the Members, Directors and
Officers shall be entitled to rely in good faith on the provisions of this Agreement and on
information, opinions, reports or statements (including financial statements and information,
opinions, reports or statements as to the value or amount of the assets, liabilities, profits or losses
of the Company and its Subsidiaries), of the following other Persons or groups: (i) (A) in relation
to such Member, one or more officers or employees of such Member or by the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries, or (B) in relation to an Officer or Director, one or more Officers or employees
of the Company or its Subsidiaries, (ii) (A) in relation to such Member, any attorney,



24




independent accountant or other Person employed or engaged by such Member or by the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or (B) in relation to an Officer or Director, any attorney,
independent accountant or other Person employed or engaged by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, or (iii) any other Person who has been selected with reasonable care by or on behalf
of such Member (in relation to a Member only) or by or on behalf of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, in each case, as to matters which such relying Person reasonably believes to be
within such other Person’s professional or expert competence. The preceding sentence shall in
no way limit any Person’s right to rely on information to the extent provided in Section 18-406
of the Act.

5.09    Limitation of Liability. Except as otherwise required by applicable law or as
expressly set forth in this Agreement, no Member shall have any personal liability whatsoever in
such Member’s capacity as a Member, whether to the Company, to any of the other Members, to
the creditors of the Company or to any other Person for the debts, obligations and liabilities of
the Company, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise (including those arising as a Member
or an equityholder, an owner or a shareholder of another Person). Each Member shall be liable
only to make such Member’s Capital Contribution to the Company, if applicable, and the other
payments provided for expressly herein, in each case, in accordance with the applicable terms of
this Agreement and any Transaction Document to which it is a party.

5.10    Authority. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, no
Member, in its capacity as a Member, shall have the power to act for or on behalf of, or to bind
the Company.

5.11    Sale of the Company; IPO. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement, the prior written consent of the GM Investor (acting in its sole discretion and in its
capacity as a Member) will be required prior to entering into or consummating any Sale of the
Company or any IPO.

ARTICLE VI
MANAGEMENT

6.01    Management.

(a)    To the fullest extent permitted by law, the business and affairs of the
Company shall be managed by a board of directors (the “Board of Directors”), which shall
direct, manage and control the business of the Company. Except as otherwise expressly set forth
herein (or if required by a non-waivable provision of the Act), no Member shall have the right to
manage the Company or to reject, override, overturn, veto or otherwise approve or pass
judgement upon any action taken by the Board of Directors or an authorized Officer of the
Company. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, the Board of Directors shall have full
and complete authority, power and discretion to manage and control the business, affairs and
properties of the Company and make any and all decisions and to take any and all actions which
the Board of Directors deems necessary or desirable for that purpose.






25




(b)    Each Director shall constitute a “manager” within the meaning of the Act.
However, no individual Director, in his or her capacity as such, shall have the authority to bind
the Company.

6.02    Number of Directors. At the date of this Agreement, the Board of Directors
shall consist of six (6) Directors. The Board of Directors may, from time to time following the
date of this Agreement, determine the size of the Board of Directors; provided, however, that the
size of the Board of Directors shall not be decreased to less than six (6) Directors.

6.03    Board Designation Rights and Composition; Proxies.

(a)    (i) The Class A-2 Preferred Members shall, by vote of a Majority of the
Class A-2 Preferred, have the exclusive right to designate, appoint, remove and replace all
Directors (including any Director vacancies created by virtue of an increase in the size of the
Board of Directors pursuant to Section 6.02) other than the SoftBank Director (if applicable) and
the Common Director (the “A-2 Preferred Directors”); provided, that if there are no Class A-2
Preferred Shares outstanding, the A-2 Preferred Directors will be appointed by a Majority of the
Class C Common, (ii) the Members holding Common Shares shall, by vote of a Majority of the
Common Shares, have the exclusive right to designate, appoint, remove and replace one (1)
Director (the “Common Director”), and (iii) following the receipt of CFIUS Approval and
subject to Section 6.05, SoftBank shall have the exclusive right (exercisable by written
notification to the Company and the GM Investor), for so long as SoftBank owns the Floor
Amount, to designate, appoint, remove and replace one (1) Director (the “SoftBank Director”).
The initial A-2 Preferred Directors shall be such four (4) natural Persons as are notified in
writing to the Company and SoftBank by GM on or prior to the execution of this Agreement and
the initial Common Director shall be such one (1) natural Person as is notified in writing to the
Company and SoftBank by GM on or prior to the execution of this Agreement. If at any time
any Director ceases to serve on the Board of Directors (whether due to resignation, removal or
otherwise), the Member(s) entitled to designate and appoint such Director pursuant to this
Section 6.03 shall designate and appoint a replacement for such Director by written notice to the
Board of Directors (it being further understood and agreed that the failure by any party to
designate and appoint a representative to fill a vacant Director position pursuant to this
Section 6.03(a) shall not give rights to, or otherwise entitle, the Board of Directors or any other
Member (other than the Member(s) entitled to designate and appoint such Director pursuant to
this Section 6.03(a), including the penultimate sentence hereof) to fill such vacant position
without the prior written consent of the Member(s) originally entitled to designate and appoint
such Director pursuant to this Section 6.03(a)). Except as otherwise expressly stated herein, only
the Member(s) entitled to designate and appoint a specific Director may remove such Director, at
any time and from time to time, with or without cause (subject to applicable law), in such
Member(s) sole discretion, and such Member(s) shall give written notice of such removal to the
Board of Directors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon such time as SoftBank owns less than
the Floor Amount, the SoftBank Director shall be immediately and automatically removed, and
the right of SoftBank to designate, appoint, remove and replace a Director shall be null and void
and, for clarity, Class A-2 Preferred Members shall, by vote of a Majority of the Class A-2
Preferred (or a Majority of the Class C Common, if no Class A-2 Preferred Shares are
outstanding), have the exclusive right to fill such vacant Director position (and, thereafter,




26





designate, appoint, remove and replace such Director). Except as otherwise expressly stated
herein, this Section 6.03 is the exclusive means by which Directors may be removed or replaced.

(b)    The GM Investor may elect any one (1) of the Directors to be the
Chairman of the Board of Directors (the “Chairman”). The Chairman, if any, may be removed
from his or her position as Chairman at any time by the GM Investor. The Chairman, in his or
her capacity as the Chairman, shall not have any of the rights or powers of an Officer. The
Chairman shall preside at all meetings of the Board of Directors and at all meetings of the
Members at which he or she shall be present. The Chairman may be the chief executive officer,
or have another officer position, at GM (or any of its Affiliates) or the Company (or any of its
Subsidiaries).

(c)    To the extent permitted by law, each Member shall vote all voting
securities of the Company over which such Member has voting control, and shall take all other
necessary or desirable actions within such Member’s control (whether in such Member’s
capacity as a Member, Director, member of a board committee or Officer of the Company or
otherwise, and including attendance at meetings in person or by proxy for purposes of obtaining
a quorum and execution of written consents in lieu of meetings), and the Company shall take all
necessary and desirable actions within its control (including calling special Board of Directors or
member meetings), so that the provisions of this Section 6.03 are promptly complied with and
that the composition of the Board of Directors is consistent with the terms and conditions of this
Section 6.03.
    
(d)    Any A-2 Preferred Director or Common Director may authorize any other
Director to act for such Director by proxy on any matter brought before the Board of Directors
for a vote, which proxy may be granted orally or in writing by the applicable Director. Any such
proxy shall be revocable at the pleasure of the Director granting it, provided that such right to
revocation shall not invalidate or otherwise affect actions taken under such proxy prior to such
revocation.

6.04    Board Observer. Following the receipt of CFIUS Approval and subject to
Section 6.05, SoftBank shall have the exclusive right, for so long as SoftBank owns the Floor
Amount, to designate one natural person to attend all meetings of the Board of Directors in a
non-voting observer capacity (the “Board Observer”). The following terms and conditions will
apply to the Board Observer:

(a)    the Company shall deliver to the Board Observer copies of all reports,
notices, minutes, consents, actions taken or proposed to be taken without a meeting and other
materials in each case (and to the extent) that the Company provides the same to the SoftBank
Director, each such delivery to be made concurrently with the delivery of such materials to the
SoftBank Director; provided, that failure to deliver any such notice or materials to any Board
Observer shall not impair the validity of any action taken by the Board of Directors;

(b)    the Board Observer shall be entitled to attend all meetings of the Board of
Directors in person or by telephone, and the Company shall ensure that appropriate arrangements
are made such that the Board Observer will be able to hear everyone during any meeting of the
Board of Directors at which the Board Observer participates by telephone; provided, that a Board


27




Observer may be excluded from access to any portion of any meeting to the same extent as the
SoftBank Director would be so excluded (or recused) pursuant to the terms hereof;

(c)    the Board Observer shall be an observer only, shall not be an actual
member of the Board of Directors and shall not have any of the rights, duties or obligations of a
Director (including that the Board Observer shall not have the right to vote on any matter that
may come before the Board of Directors). The Board Observer shall not count towards any
quorum;

(d)    subject to Section 6.04(e), SoftBank has the right to remove and replace or
substitute the Board Observer from time to time by providing written notice to the Company;

(e)    upon such time as SoftBank owns less than the Floor Amount, the Board
Observer shall be automatically removed and shall cease to have any of the rights contemplated
by this Section 6.04, and the right of SoftBank to designate, appoint, remove and replace the
Board Observer shall be null and void; and

(f)    prior to appointment, the Board Observer will enter into a confidentiality
agreement with the Company, on terms mutually acceptable to the Board of Directors and the
Board Observer.

6.05    Director Appointee Screening. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by SoftBank
and the GM Investor, each Person selected pursuant to Section 6.03(a) from time to time to serve
as the SoftBank Director and the Board Observer (a) must be a U.S. citizen; (b) must not be (i)
an employee, director (or board observer), manager, officer or consultant of any Restricted
Person or (ii) a Person who has direct or indirect control, influence or management oversight of
Persons who are employees, directors (or board observer), managers, officers or consultants of a
Restricted Person; (c) must not be a member of any investment committee (or similar body) of
any Person whose other members include one or more Persons that are described in
subsection (b); (d) must not (i) be a “bad actor” as defined in Rule 506(d)(1) of the Securities Act
or (ii) have been convicted of a felony (excluding driving under the influence) or any crime
involving moral turpitude; and (e) shall be subject to the prior written approval of the Majority of
the Class A-2 Preferred. If any nominee for the position of SoftBank Director or Board Observer
is rejected by the Majority of the Class A-2 Preferred, such Person shall not be nominated or
appointed as a Director or Board Observer, as applicable. If, at any time following the
appointment of any SoftBank Director or Board Observer, the Majority of the Class A-2
Preferred believes that such SoftBank Director or Board Observer no longer satisfies the criteria
described in clauses (a) through (d) above, the Majority of the Class A-2 Preferred may deliver
written notice thereof to the Majority of the Class A-1 Preferred and the Board of Directors. If,
following reasonable consultation with SoftBank, the Board of Directors determines that such
criteria are not met, such SoftBank Director or Board Observer (as applicable) will be deemed
automatically removed, without recourse, as a Director or Board Observer (as applicable) and
SoftBank shall have the right to fill the resulting vacancy as contemplated by Section 6.03 and
Section 6.04 but subject to this Section 6.05. If no Class A-2 Preferred Shares are outstanding,
references in this Section 6.05 to a Majority of the Class A-2 Preferred will be deemed to be to a
Majority of the Class C Common.




28




6.06    Tenure of Directors. Each Director shall hold office until the earliest of such
Person’s death, resignation, removal or replacement (or, in the case of the SoftBank Director,
such time as SoftBank owns less than the Floor Amount).

6.07    Committees. The Board of Directors may establish one or more committees,
each committee to consist of one or more of the Directors. Each Director serving on any such
committee shall have one (1) vote. Any such committee, to the extent provided in the resolution
of the Board of Directors, shall have and may exercise all the power and authority of the Board
of Directors. The vote of a Majority of a Committee is required for any action or decision of a
committee requiring the consent or approval of such committee, unless determined by the Board
of Directors or the applicable committee (by vote of a Majority of a Committee). The
procedures governing the meetings and actions of any committee shall be the same as those
governing the Board of Directors pursuant to this Article VI (including quorum, voting, notice
and other similar requirements), unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors or the
applicable committee (by a vote of a Majority of a Committee).

6.08    Director Compensation. No Director shall be entitled to compensation for
acting as a Director. However, the Company shall reimburse each Director for all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses which such Director shall incur in connection with the performance of
such Person’s duties as a Director. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this
Agreement shall be construed to preclude any Director from serving the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries in any other capacity and receiving compensation for such service.

6.09    Director Resignation. Any Director may resign at any time by giving written
notice to the Board of Directors and the secretary of the Company. The resignation of any
Director shall take effect upon receipt of notice thereof or at such later time as shall be specified
in such notice and, unless otherwise specified therein, the acceptance of such resignation shall
not be necessary to make it effective.

6.10    Vacancies. When any Director shall resign or otherwise cease to serve as
Director, such vacancy shall be filled in accordance with Section 6.03. Unless otherwise
provided by the Member(s) entitled to designate such replacement Director, the replacement
shall take effect when such resignation or cessation shall become effective. No vacancy on the
Board of Directors shall prevent the operation and functioning of the Board of Directors subject
to the terms and conditions hereof.

6.11    Meetings. The Board of Directors shall meet at such times and at such places
(either within or outside of the State of Delaware) as determined in accordance with this
Section 6.11. Minutes of any formal meeting of the Board of Directors shall be kept and placed
in the Company’s records. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any
action which may be taken at a meeting of the Board of Directors may be taken without a
meeting if written consent(s) setting forth the action so taken shall be signed by a Majority of the
Board. Meetings of the Board of Directors shall be held on the call of the Chairman, the Board
of Directors or at the request of either the Majority of the Class A-2 Preferred or a Majority of
the Class C Common upon at least three (3) Business Days written notice to the Directors (or
upon such shorter notice as may be approved by all of the Directors) and such notice shall
include the place, day and hour of such meeting, it being acknowledged and agreed that whether



29




such meeting is to be held by telephone communications or video conference shall be determined
by the Chairman; provided, that the Board of Directors shall meet (whether in person or by any
other means contemplated by Section 6.12) no less frequently than four (4) times per Fiscal Year
(or less frequently as may be approved by all of the Directors). Meetings of the Directors or any
committee designated by the Directors may be held without notice at any time that all Directors
are present in person, and presence of any Director at a meeting constitutes waiver of notice of
such meeting except as otherwise provided by law.

6.12    Meetings by Telephone. Directors may participate in a meeting of the Board of
Directors or a committee thereof by means of conference telephone, videoconference or similar
communications equipment by which all Persons participating in the meeting can hear each other
at the same time. Such participation shall constitute presence in person at the meeting.

6.13    Quorum; Actions of Board of Directors; SoftBank Minority Consent Rights.
A quorum at all meetings of the Directors shall consist of members of the Board of Directors
constituting a Majority of the Board (present in person or by proxy), but a smaller number may
adjourn any such meeting from time to time without further notice until a quorum is secured.
The quorum for the holding of a meeting of a committee of the Board of Directors shall be a
Majority of a Committee of such committee. Each Director shall have one (1) vote on all matters
submitted to the Board of Directors (whether the consideration of such matter is taken at a
meeting, by written consent or otherwise). The vote of (or written consent signed by) a Majority
of the Board shall be required for any action, decision or approval by the Board of Directors;
provided, that for so long as SoftBank owns the Floor Amount, the Company shall not, and shall
not permit any Subsidiary of the Company to, take any of the following actions without the
approval of a Majority of the Board which majority shall include the vote in favor of the
SoftBank Director, or by written consent signed by the Majority of the Board which shall also
include the signature of the SoftBank Director:

(a)    make any alteration or amendment or waiver to this Agreement or the
organizational documents of any Subsidiary of the Company in a manner that is adverse to rights
of the Class A-1 Preferred Shares; provided, that this Section 6.13(a) will not apply to any of the
following: (i) the addition of Members to the Company or the issuance of Shares or other Equity
Securities of the Company (whether of a new or an existing class), in each case, in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement, and any amendment(s) to this Agreement in connection with
implementing such issuance or addition of such Member(s) (including the updating of the
Members Schedule in connection therewith) or the granting of any rights to one or more
Members in connection with such issuance in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (ii)
any amendment(s) to this Agreement in connection with the preparation for or consummation of
an IPO that do not adversely affect the Class A-1 Preferred Shares in a manner which is
disproportionate to the other Shares (except as contemplated by Section 9.10) or (iii) to correct
any typographical or similar ministerial errors. In determining whether an amendment adversely
affects the rights of the Class A-1 Preferred Shares, only the rights related thereto shall be
considered, and any other relationship(s) the Class A-1 Preferred Members may have with the
Company, any of its Subsidiaries or the other Members shall not be considered and no
characteristic of the Class A-1 Preferred Members other than the rights relating to the Class A-1
Preferred Shares shall be considered;




30




(b)    without prejudice to Sections 5.08(b)(i)(B), 5.08(b)(i)(C) and 5.08(b)(ii),
enter into any transaction, arrangement or agreement between the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and GM or any of its Affiliates on the other hand, except in each
case for any such transaction, arrangement or agreement, (i) on terms, as determined by the
Board of Directors acting in good faith, that are no less favorable, in all material respects, than
those the Company would agree to with any Person who is not GM or any of its Affiliates;
provided, that for any such transaction, arrangement or agreement, the Board of Directors may
(but shall not be obligated to) obtain (A) an opinion of an independent auditor or independent
outside counsel that the requirements of subsection (i) have been satisfied or (B) approval of a
majority of the Independent Directors (to the extent any are appointed), and such opinion or
approval shall be conclusive evidence that the requirements of subsection (i) have been satisfied
and shall be binding on the Members (it being understood that failure to obtain such opinion or
approval shall not, in and of itself, be evidence that the requirements of subsection (i) have not
been satisfied); (ii) contemplated by the Transaction Documents or the Commercial Agreements
(as the same may be amended from time to time in accordance with the provisions thereof), or
which is otherwise on terms consistent with the Commercial Agreements; or (iii) providing for
the issuance of Equity Securities pursuant to Section 2.05;

(c)    issue any Equity Securities that have rights, preferences or privileges with
respect to Distributions, (i) senior to the rights of the Class A-1 Preferred Shares in Sections
3.01(b)(i) or 3.02(a)(i) or (ii) at any time prior to the first (1st) anniversary of Commercial
Deployment, pari passu with the rights of the Class A-1 Preferred Shares in Sections 3.01(b)(i)
or 3.02(a)(i) (the “Par Securities”); provided, that this subsection (ii) will not apply to the first
$1,000,000,000 of new Par Securities issued (with such amount being calculated based on the
consideration paid by the recipient(s) of such Par Securities); or

(d)    consummate an IPO, prior to the third (3rd) anniversary of the date of this
Agreement, pursuant to which Class A-1 Preferred Members would receive Low-Vote IPO
Shares that, at the time of the IPO, had (i) with respect to Class A-1-A Preferred Shares a per
share market value less than the Class A-1-A Liquidation Preference Amount or (ii) with respect
to Class A-1-B Preferred Shares a per share market value less than the Class A-1-B Liquidation
Preference Amount (such aggregate shortfall for each Class A-1 Preferred Member, the “IPO
Shortfall”); provided, that this Section 6.13(d) will not apply if:

(i)    the Board of Directors, at or prior to the consummation of such an
IPO (other than an IPO with no primary issuance or that constitutes a spin-off), causes the
Company to make an irrevocable written commitment to each Class A-1 Preferred Member
pursuant to which the Company will provide to such Class A-1 Preferred Member additional
Low-Vote IPO Shares and/or cash equal to the aggregate IPO Shortfall that would be suffered by
such Class A-1 Preferred Member; or

(ii)    in the case of such an IPO with no primary issuance or that
constitutes a spin-off, at or prior to the consummation of such IPO the IPO’d entity enters into a
binding agreement providing that, if based on the thirty (30)-day variable weighted average share
price of the IPO’d entity immediately following such IPO there exists an IPO Shortfall, such
entity will issue to the former Class A-1 Preferred Members additional Low-Vote IPO Shares
and/or cash equal to the aggregate IPO Shortfall.



31




Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if at any time the SoftBank
Director has not been appointed to the Board of Directors or there is otherwise a vacancy with
respect to the SoftBank Director and, in each case, SoftBank continues to own the Floor Amount,
none of the foregoing actions in this Section 6.13 shall be taken without the approval of the
Majority of the Class A-1 Preferred. For clarity, if the rights in this Section 6.13(a) through (d)
are amended or cease to apply pursuant to Sections 2.02(c)(ii) or 2.02(d), such rights will also be
amended or cease to apply (as applicable) with respect to the Majority of the Class A-1 Preferred
(to the extent rights were granted pursuant to the prior sentence).

6.14    Competitively Sensitive Information. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in this Agreement (and subject further, and without prejudice, to Section 8.03), in the event that
any written or oral materials that contain Competitively Sensitive Information will be shared
with or presented to the Board of Directors, the Company shall withhold any such materials such
that the Competitively Sensitive Information is only shared or discussed with, or presented for
review only to, the A-2 Preferred Directors and the Common Director (and decisions relating
thereto), and each other Director (and the Board Observer) shall recuse himself or herself from
the portion(s) of the meeting at which any such matters are shared, presented or discussed;
provided, that the Company will (a) only redact that portion of any written materials which
constitutes Competitively Sensitive Information, provide the redacted document to the recused
Directors and permit the recused Directors to participate in such portion of any meeting or
discussion that relates solely to the unredacted sections of such materials, and (b) inform each
Director that Competitively Sensitive Information will be shared with or presented to the Board
of Directors at least one (1) Business Day in advance of such materials being shared or
presented.

6.15    Officers. The Board of Directors may from time to time appoint individuals as
officers of the Company (“Officers”). The Officers of the Company shall have such titles,
duties, authority and compensation (if any) as shall be fixed by the Board of Directors from time
to time. Any Officer may be removed, with or without cause, at any time by the Board of
Directors.

ARTICLE VII
EXCULPATION AND INDEMNIFICATION

7.01    Exculpation. No Officer shall be liable to any other Officer, the Company or any
Member for any loss suffered by the Company or any Member; provided, that subject to the
other limitations contained in this Agreement, this sentence shall not apply with respect to losses
caused by such Person’s fraud, gross negligence, intentional misconduct or intentional breach of
this Agreement or breach of any duty owed to the Company or to any other Member. Without
limiting the foregoing, the Officers shall not be liable for any acts or omissions that do not
constitute fraud, gross negligence, intentional misconduct or intentional breach of this
Agreement or breach of any duty owed to the Company or to any other Member. No Director
shall be liable to any other Director, the Company or any Member for any loss suffered by the
Company or any Member to the maximum extent permitted pursuant to the DGCL (as the same
exists or may hereafter be amended (but in the case of any amendment, only to the extent such
amendment permits the Company to provide broader exculpation than the Company was
permitted to provide prior to such amendment)) with respect to directors of corporations



32




(assuming such corporation had in its certificate of incorporation a provision eliminating the
liabilities of directors and officers to the maximum extent permitted by Section 102(b)(7) of the
DGCL).

7.02    Indemnification.

(a)    Subject to the limitations and conditions as provided in this Article VII,
each Covered Person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is
involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, claim, dispute,
litigation, complaint, charge, claim, grievance, hearing, audit, arbitration, or mediation, whether
civil, criminal, administrative or arbitrative, at law or at equity, or any appeal therefrom, or any
inquiry, or investigation that could lead to any of the foregoing (each of the foregoing, a
Proceeding”), by reason of the fact that he, she or it, or a Person of whom he or she is the legal
representative, is or was a Member (in the case of a Member for all purposes of this Section 7.02,
solely by reason of such Member’s status as a Member and not with respect to any actions taken,
or the failure to take an action, by such Person as a Member) or other Covered Person, shall be
indemnified by the Company to the fullest extent permitted by the Act or, in the case of
Directors, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL for a director of a Delaware corporation
(assuming such corporation had in its certificate of incorporation a provision eliminating the
liabilities of directors and officers to the maximum extent permitted by Section 102(b)(7) of the
DGCL), as (in the case of each of the DGCL and the Act) the same exists or may hereafter be
amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment
permits the Company to provide broader indemnification rights than said law permitted the
Company to provide prior to such amendment) against judgments, penalties (including excise
and similar taxes and punitive damages), fines, settlements and reasonable expenses (including
attorneys’ fees) or any other amounts incurred by such Person in connection with such
Proceeding, and indemnification under this Article VII shall continue as to a Covered Person
who has ceased to serve in the capacity which initially entitled such Person to indemnity
hereunder; provided, that except to the extent a Person is entitled to or receives exculpation
pursuant to Section 7.01 or as expressly provided for in any Commercial Agreement or
Transaction Document, no Covered Person shall be indemnified for any judgments, penalties
(including excise and similar taxes and punitive damages), fines, settlements or reasonable
expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually incurred by such Covered Person that are
attributable to: (i) Proceedings initiated by such Covered Person or Proceedings by such Covered
Person against the Company, (ii) economic losses or tax obligations incurred by a Covered
Person as a result of owning Shares or (iii) Proceedings initiated by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries against any such Covered Person, including Proceedings to enforce any rights
against such Covered Person under any employment, consulting, services or other agreement
between such Person, on the one hand, under the Transaction Documents or Share Grant
Agreement.

(b)    Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by a Covered Person in
defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding with
respect to a Designated Matter shall be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition
of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Covered
Person to repay such amount to the extent it shall ultimately be determined that such Covered
Person is not entitled to indemnity under this Section 7.02.



33





(c)    Recourse by a Covered Person for indemnity under this Section 7.02 shall
be only against the Company as an entity and no Member shall by reason of being a Member be
liable for the Company’s obligations under this Section 7.02 or otherwise be required to make
additional Capital Contributions to help satisfy such indemnity obligations of the Company.

(d)    The Company may enter into a separate agreement to indemnify any
Covered Person as to any matter (whether or not a Designated Matter) to the extent such
agreement is approved by the Board of Directors. Any such separate agreement shall be in
addition to (and not in limitation of) the rights set forth in this Section 7.02 or elsewhere in this
Agreement and shall not, unless expressly set forth in such separate agreement, be subject to any
limitations or conditions set forth in this Section 7.02 or elsewhere in this Agreement.

(e)    The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted
pursuant to, the other provisions of this Section 7.02 shall not be deemed to be exclusive of any
other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled
under any agreement, both as to action in his, her or its official capacity and as to action in
another capacity while holding such position or related to the Company, and shall continue as to
any Person who has ceased to be a Covered Person (or successor or assignee of a Covered
Person) and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, representatives, successors and assigns of such
Covered Person.

(f)    The Company may purchase and maintain insurance for the benefit of any
Covered Person with respect to any Designated Matter, whether or not the Company must or
could indemnify such Covered Person under this Section 7.02.

(g)    This Article VII shall inure to the benefit of the Covered Persons and their
heirs, representatives, successors and assigns, and it is the express intention of the parties hereto
that the provisions of this Article VII for the indemnification and exculpation of the Covered
Persons may be relied upon by such Covered Persons and may be enforced by such Covered
Person against the Company pursuant to this Agreement or to a separate indemnification
agreement, as if such Covered Persons were parties hereto.

7.03    No Personal Liability. No individual who is a Director or an Officer, or any
combination of the foregoing, shall be personally liable under any judgment of a court, or in any
other manner, for any debt, obligation or liability of the Company, whether that liability or
obligation arises in contract, tort or otherwise solely by reason of being a Director or an Officer
or any combination of the foregoing.

ARTICLE VIII
BOOKS AND RECORDS; INFORMATION; RELATED MATTERS; COMPLIANCE

8.01    Generally. The Company shall (and shall cause it Subsidiaries to) maintain
books and records of account in which full and correct entries shall be made of all of their
business transactions pursuant to a system of accounting established and administered in
accordance with GAAP. The Company shall (and shall cause its Subsidiaries to) implement
financial controls reasonably designed to provide adequate assurance that payments will be made
by or on behalf of the Company and its Subsidiaries only in accordance with the instructions of


34




the Board of Directors or, as applicable, management to whom the Board of Directors has
delegated such authority.

8.02    Delivery of Financial Information.

(a) The Company shall deliver to SoftBank, for so long as SoftBank owns the
Floor Amount and subject to Section 8.03, and the GM Investor:

(i)    as soon as practicable, but in any event within one hundred twenty
(120) days (or, with respect to the Fiscal Year ending December 31, 2018, one hundred fifty
(150) days), following the end of each Fiscal Year beginning with the Fiscal Year ending
December 31, 2018, audited annual financial statements (including balance sheet, income
statement, statement of cash flow and statement of members’ equity) and accompanying notes of
the Company and its Subsidiaries (on a consolidated basis), prepared in accordance with GAAP
(except as may be indicated in the notes thereto);

(ii)    as soon as practicable, but in any event within forty-five (45) days,
following the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of each Fiscal Year of the Company
beginning with the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2018, unaudited financial statements
(including balance sheet, income statement, statement of cash flow and statement of members’
equity) of the Company and its Subsidiaries (on a consolidated basis), prepared in accordance
with GAAP (except as may be indicated in the notes thereto and subject to the absence of
footnote disclosures, normal year-end adjustments and such other departures from GAAP as the
Board of Directors may authorize); provided, that quarterly information provided before delivery
of the first annual audited financial statements is subject to revision as part of the implementation
of standalone financial reporting capabilities;

(iii)    as soon as practicable, but in any event within thirty (30) days after
the end of each month beginning with the month ending July 30, 2018, unaudited trial balances
of the Company and its Subsidiaries (on a consolidated basis); provided, that such management
accounts will only be required to be delivered to the extent they are otherwise prepared by
management of the Company in the ordinary course of business (and in such case shall only be
required to be in such form as so otherwise prepared) and, for the avoidance of doubt, any
monthly financial information may not include all adjustments necessary to reflect the Company
and its Subsidiaries (on a consolidated basis) on a standalone basis in accordance with GAAP
and any monthly information provided before the delivery of the first annual audited financial
statements is subject to revision as part of the implementation of standalone financial reporting
capabilities;

(iv)    as soon as practicable, but in any event within thirty (30) days after
the end of each fiscal quarter of each Fiscal Year of the Company, the Members Schedule; and

(v)    as soon as reasonably practicable following the end of each Fiscal
Year beginning with the Fiscal Year ending December 31, 2018, a budget and business plan for
the Company for the then current Fiscal Year. Such budget and business plan will be the same
as was shared with the Board of Directors and will include a level of detail reasonably customary
for entities of a size and nature similar to the Company.



35





8.03    Technical Information.    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement, the Company will not provide (and nothing in this Article VIII or otherwise in this
Agreement will require the Company or any of its Directors or employees to provide) any
Technical Information to any Class A-1 Preferred Member, Class D Common Member, the
SoftBank Director or the Board Observer.

8.04    Applicable ABAC/AML/Trade Laws.

(a)    The Company covenants and agrees that the Company, any Subsidiaries it
establishes and any Associated Person of either the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall
comply with all Applicable ABAC Laws, Applicable AML Laws and Applicable Trade Laws.

(b)    The Company covenants and agrees that the Company, any Subsidiaries it
establishes and any Associated Person of either the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall not
use any funds received from GM, SVFA or SoftBank in violation of Applicable Trade Laws,
including, directly or indirectly, for the benefit of any Blocked Person.

(c)    If it has not already done so, the Company shall adopt and implement
within forty-five (45) days of executing this Agreement policies and procedures designed to
prevent the Company and its Affiliates as well as any Associated Person of either the Company
or any of its Affiliates from engaging in any activity, practice or conduct that would violate any
of the Applicable ABAC Laws, Applicable AML Laws or Applicable Trade Laws. Such policy
and procedures shall be consistent with the guidance that has been provided by government
authorities in the United Kingdom and United States of America having authority to administer
and prosecute violations of such laws and regulations.

(d)    The Company shall confirm in writing to SoftBank upon written request
(which such request shall be made no more frequently than once each fiscal year) that it and any
Subsidiaries it establishes have complied with the undertakings in this Section 8.04.

(e)    If the Company or any Subsidiaries it establishes has knowledge or
reasonable cause to believe after reasonable investigation that the Company, any of its
Subsidiaries or any Associated Person of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has materially
violated any of the Applicable ABAC Laws, Applicable AML Laws and/or Applicable Trade
Laws, it shall notify SoftBank promptly in writing of its suspicion or belief and keep SoftBank
apprised of material developments concerning such violation; provided further, for the avoidance
of doubt, that neither the Company nor any of the Company’s Subsidiaries shall be obligated to
waive their attorney-client privilege to satisfy the foregoing obligation.

ARTICLE IX
TRANSFERS OF COMPANY INTERESTS;
ADMISSION OF NEW MEMBERS; GM CALL

9.01    Limitations on Transfer.

(a)

(i)    Prior to the Trigger Date, (A) no Class A-1 Preferred Shares,
Class D Common Shares or any other Equity Securities held by SoftBank, SVFA or any of their
Affiliates and (B) no Class B Shares, may be Transferred or offered to be Transferred without
the prior written approval of each of the GM Investor and the Board of Directors and any such
Transfer or offer to Transfer such Shares, other Equity Securities or interests therein or rights
relating thereto shall be null and void ab initio and of no effect whatsoever. This Section 9.01(a)
(1) will not apply to any Transfer pursuant to Sections 2.02(c), 2.09, 9.02, 9.07, 9.08, 9.09, 9.10
or 9.12 (such Transfer, an “Excluded Transfer”) and (2) will cease to apply upon
consummation of an IPO. For clarity, except as set forth in Section 9.01(b), no Class A-2
Preferred Member or Class C Member is subject to any restrictions on Transfer of its Class A-2
Preferred Shares or Class C Common Shares.

(ii)    From and after the Trigger Date, the limitations on Transfer set
forth in the first sentence of Section 9.01(a)(i) will cease to apply; provided, that following the
Trigger Date and prior to the consummation of an IPO no Transfer of Class A-1 Preferred
Shares, Class D Common Shares or any other Equity Securities held by SoftBank, SVFA or any
of their Affiliates will be permitted unless the holder of such Shares shall have first complied
with the provisions of Section 9.01(a)(iii). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement (including the expiration of the limitations on Transfer set forth in Section 9.01(a)(i)
from and after the Trigger Date but prior to the consummation of the IPO), at no time may
Class A-1 Preferred Shares, Class D Common Shares or any other Equity Securities held by
SoftBank or any of its Affiliates, be Transferred to a Restricted Person without the prior written
approval of each of the GM Investor and the Board of Directors.

(iii)    At least fifteen (15) days (or such shorter period as may be
consented to by the Board of Directors) prior to entering into any definitive agreement (a
Binding Transaction Agreement”) providing for, or entered into in connection with, a
proposed Transfer (other than an Excluded Transfer) of Class A-1 Preferred Shares, Class D
Common Shares or any other Equity Securities held by SoftBank, SVFA or any of their
Affiliates, in each case from and after the Trigger Date, such Member proposing to make such a
Transfer (the “Transferor”) shall deliver a written notice (the “ROFR Notice”) to the Board of
Directors and the GM Investor, specifying in reasonable detail the identity of the prospective
transferee(s), the number and class of Shares or other Equity Securities proposed to be
Transferred (the “ROFR Offered Shares”) and the price and other terms and conditions of the
proposed Transfer. No Transferor shall enter into a Binding Transaction Agreement or
consummate such proposed Transfer before the GM ROFR Date (or such shorter period as
consented to by the Board of Directors). Following receipt of the ROFR Notice, the GM
Investor may elect to purchase all (but not less than all) of the ROFR Offered Shares at the price
set forth in the ROFR Notice and otherwise on Equivalent Terms, by delivering (or one of its



37






Affiliates delivering) written notice (a “GM ROFR Notice”) of such election to the relevant
Transferor(s) within ten (10) days after delivery of the ROFR Notice (such 10th day, the “GM
ROFR Date”). If the GM Investor (or one of its Affiliates) does not deliver a GM ROFR Notice
electing to purchase all of the ROFR Offered Shares at the price set forth in the ROFR Notice
and otherwise on Equivalent Terms on or prior to the GM ROFR Date, then the applicable
Transferor(s) may sell all, but not less than all, of the ROFR Offered Shares to the Person
identified in the ROFR Notice for a per Share amount equal to or greater than, and on other
terms no less favorable to Transferor than, the price and other terms set forth in the ROFR
Notice, in each case within one hundred twenty (120) days following the GM ROFR Date. Any
ROFR Offered Shares not Transferred within such one hundred twenty (120)-day period shall
again be subject to the provisions of this Section 9.01(a)(iii) prior to any subsequent Transfer. If
the GM Investor has elected to purchase the ROFR Offered Shares in accordance with this
Section 9.01(a)(iii), then such purchase shall be consummated as soon as practicable after the
delivery of the GM ROFR Notice to the Transferor(s), but in any event within one hundred
twenty (120) days after the delivery of such GM ROFR Notice. If the consideration proposed to
be paid for the ROFR Offered Shares in the ROFR Notice is in property, services or other noncash
consideration, then the fair market value of such non-cash consideration shall be equal to
the Fair Market Value thereof. The GM Investor shall pay the cash equivalent of such Fair
Market Value of any such property, services or other non-cash consideration proposed to be paid
in the ROFR Notice.

(b)    Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, no
Transfer of Shares may be made unless, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, satisfactory
in form and substance to the Board of Directors (which opinion requirement, or one or more
components thereof, may be waived, in whole or in part by the Board of Directors), such
Transfer would not result in (i) a violation of any applicable United States federal or state
securities laws, (ii) unless waived by the Board of Directors, the Company being required to
register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 or any other
federal or state securities laws or (iii) other than pursuant to Section 9.10, the Company being
required to register under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. As a condition
to the Company recognizing the effectiveness of any Transfer of Shares, the Board of Directors
may require the transferor and/or transferee, as the case may be, to execute, acknowledge and
deliver to the Company such instruments of transfer, assignment and assumption and such other
certificates, representations and documents, and to perform all such other acts, which the Board
of Directors may reasonably deem necessary or desirable to (A) verify the Transfer, (B) confirm
that the proposed transferee has accepted, assumed and agreed to be subject and bound by all of
the terms, obligations and conditions of this Agreement (whether or not such Person is to be
admitted as a new Member) and (C) assure compliance with applicable state and federal laws,
including securities laws and regulations. For the purposes of this Article IX, any transfer, sale,
assignment, pledge, encumbrance or other direct or indirect disposition of shares or other
interests of any Person which is an entity and a substantial portion of the assets of which are,
directly or indirectly, Shares or other Equity Securities, or which is intentionally designed to, or
has the effect of, circumventing the intention of the Transfer restrictions in this Agreement, shall
be deemed to be a Transfer of Shares or Equity Securities (as applicable). Each Member as to
which the immediately preceding sentence applies shall cause its direct and indirect interest
holders to comply with the provisions of this Article IX.


38




(c)    No Transfer of Class A-1 Preferred Shares may be consummated (and any
process pursuant to Section 9.01(a)(iii) shall be suspended if a Call Notice is delivered pursuant
to Section 9.12) until such time as the Class A-1/D Purchase pursuant to such Call Notice has
been consummated.

(d)    Without prejudice to SoftBank’s right to consummate the one-time
Transfer as permitted by Section 9.02(c), until such time as SoftBank has paid, in full, the
Subsequent SoftBank Commitment pursuant to Section 2.02(c), SoftBank (i) shall not make any
Transfer if the effect of such Transfer would be that SoftBank ceases to be a Member hereunder
and (ii) shall ensure that it has uncalled capital commitments sufficient to pay the Subsequent
SoftBank Commitment in full.

9.02    Permitted Transfers.

(a)    Notwithstanding Section 9.01(a), Class A-1 Preferred Shares, Class D
Common Shares and Class B Common Shares may be Transferred by the holder thereof without
obtaining the approval of the Board of Directors: (i) in the case of an Employee Member, to a
member of the Family Group of the Person to whom such Shares were originally issued (a
Transfer pursuant to this clause (i), an “Exempt Employee Member Transfer”) or (ii) in the
case of a Class A-1 Preferred Member or Class D Member, to an Affiliate (other than SoftBank
Group Corp. or its Subsidiaries) of such Class A-1 Preferred Member or Class D Member that
(A) is owned and controlled, directly or indirectly, by such Class A-1 Preferred Member or such
Class D Member, and (B) is not a Restricted Person (a Transfer pursuant to this clause (ii), an
Exempt SoftBank Transfer”); provided, that (subject only to Section 9.02(c)) the permitted
exceptions in this Section 9.02(a) will not apply to any Shares held by SoftBank. If a Permitted
Transferee ceases to meet the criteria set forth in (i) or (ii) of the preceding sentence (as
applicable), such Permitted Transferee shall re-transfer (within ten (10) Business Days) the
Shares Transferred to such Permitted Transferee to the original transferor (in the case of an
Exempt SoftBank Transfer) or to another member of the Family Group of such transferring
Person (in the case of an Exempt Employee Member Transfer) and, pending the completion of
such re-transfer, such Permitted Transferee shall not have any rights under this Agreement in
respect of such Shares held by him, her or it.

(b)    As used herein, a “Permitted Transferee” shall constitute any Person,
other than the Company, to whom Shares are Transferred pursuant to this Section 9.02.

(c)    Notwithstanding Section 9.01(a), SoftBank may, on or prior to September
10, 2018, Transfer all, but not less than all, of its Shares as well as its corresponding rights and
obligations under this Agreement (including those set forth in Sections 2.02(c)(i) and 9.01(d)) to
SVF or a Sidecar Fund (the “SVF Transfer”). Any such Transfer consummated pursuant to and
in compliance with this Section 9.02(c) will be deemed to have been approved by the Board of
Directors.

9.03    Assignee’s Rights and Obligations.

(a)    A Transfer of a Share permitted pursuant to this Agreement shall be
effective as of the date of assignment and compliance with the conditions to such Transfer, and



39




such Transfer shall be shown on the books and records of the Company. Prior to the date that the
Transfer is consummated and the transferee becomes a Member hereunder, such proposed
transferee shall be referred to herein as an “Assignee”. Distributions made before the effective
date of such Transfer, shall be paid to the transferor, and Distributions made after such date shall
be paid to the Assignee.

(b)    Unless and until an Assignee becomes a Member pursuant to this Article
IX, the Assignee shall not be entitled to any of the rights granted to a Member hereunder or
under applicable law, other than the rights granted specifically to Assignees pursuant to this
Agreement and rights granted to Assignees pursuant to the Act. Further, such Assignee shall be
bound by any limitations and obligations contained herein with respect to Members.

(c)    Any Member who shall Transfer any Shares or other interest in the
Company shall cease to be a Member with respect to such Shares or other interest and shall no
longer have any rights or privileges of a Member with respect to such Shares or other interest,
except that, unless and until the Assignee is admitted as a Substituted Member in accordance
with the provisions of Section 9.04 (the “Admission Date”), (i) such assigning Member shall
retain all of the duties, liabilities and obligations of a Member with respect to such Shares or
other interest and (ii) the Board of Directors may reinstate all or any portion of the rights and
privileges of such Member with respect to such Shares or other interest for any period of time
prior to the Admission Date. Nothing contained herein shall relieve any Member who Transfers
any Shares or other interest in the Company from any liability of such Member to the Company
or the other Members with respect to such Shares or other interest that may exist on the
Admission Date or that is otherwise specified in the Act and incorporated into this Agreement or
for any liability to the Company or any other Person for any breaches of any representations,
warranties or covenants by such Member (in its capacity as such) contained herein or in the other
agreements with the Company.

(d)    For clarity (and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein), the
rights of SoftBank hereunder are personal to SoftBank (for so long as SoftBank is a Member), do
not attach to the Class A-1 Preferred Shares, or any other class of Shares or Equity Interests, and
cannot be assigned by SoftBank to any other Person, except in connection with an Exempt
SoftBank Transfer or in connection with a Transfer made pursuant to, and in compliance with,
Section 9.02(c).

9.04    Admission of Members.

(a)    In connection with the Transfer of a Share of a Member permitted under
the terms of this Agreement, the transferee shall not become a Member (a “Substituted
Member”) until the later of (i) the effective date of such Transfer and (ii) the date on which the
Board of Directors approves such transferee as a Substituted Member (such approval not to be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), and such admission shall be shown on the books
and records of the Company

(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary that may be expressed or implied
in this Agreement, a Person may be admitted to the Company as a Member by the Board of




40





Directors (an “Additional Member”). Such admission shall become effective on the date on
which such admission is shown on the books and records of the Company.

9.05    Certain Requirements of Prospective Members. As a condition to admission
to the Company as a Member, each Assignee and Additional Member shall execute and deliver a
joinder to this Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I or otherwise acceptable to the
Board of Directors.

9.06    Status of Transferred Shares. Shares that are Transferred shall thereafter
continue to be subject to all restrictions and obligations imposed by this Agreement with respect
to Shares and Transfers thereof.

9.07    Tag-Along Rights.

(a)    If any Class A-2 Member or Class C Member (the “Transferring
Holder”) proposes to Transfer Class A-2 Preferred Shares or Class C Common Shares (or any
other Equity Securities held by such Member) to an Independent Third Party prior to an IPO
(other than any Transfer (i) as provided in Section 9.08, (ii) as provided in Section 9.09, (iii) in
connection with Section 9.10 or (iv) as provided in Section 9.12), then the Transferring Holder(s)
shall deliver a written notice (such notice, the “Tag Notice”) to the Company, each Class D
Member and each Class A-1 Preferred Member (the “Participation Members”) at least thirty
(30) days prior to making such Transfer, specifying in reasonable detail the identity of the
prospective transferee(s), the number of Class A-2 Preferred Shares or Class C Common Shares
(or any other Equity Securities held by such Members) to be Transferred and the price and other
terms and conditions of the Transfer. Each Participation Member may elect to participate in the
contemplated Transfer in the manner set forth in this Section 9.07 by delivering an irrevocable
written notice to the Transferring Holder(s) within fifteen (15) days after delivery of the Tag
Notice, which notice shall specify the number of Class A-1 Preferred Shares and Class D
Common Shares (or any other Equity Securities held by such Members) that such Participation
Member desires to include in such proposed Transfer. If none of the Participation Members
gives such notice prior to the expiration of the fifteen (15) day period for giving such notice, then
the Transferring Holder(s) may Transfer such Class A-2 Preferred Shares or Class C Common
Shares (or any other Equity Securities held by such Members) to any Person at the same price
and on other terms and conditions that are no more favorable, in the aggregate, to the
Transferring Holder(s) than those set forth in the Tag Notice. If any Participation Members have
irrevocably elected to participate in such Transfer prior to the expiration of the fifteen (15) day
period for giving notice, each Participation Member shall be entitled to sell in the contemplated
Transfer a total number of Class A-1 Preferred Shares (the “Tagged Shares”) to be sold in the
Transfer, to be calculated according to the following methodology:

(i)    First, all Junior Interests owned by the Transferring Holder are
deemed converted (on a Fully Diluted Basis) to Class D Common Shares on a 1:1 basis (as
adjusted, as necessary, to reflect appropriate and proportional adjustments to take into account
any subdivision, reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split,
combination of shares or similar event) and all Class A-1 Preferred Shares held by all
Participation Member(s) are deemed converted to Class D Common Shares pursuant to
Section 2.09(b) (collectively the number of Class D Common Shares resulting from the deemed


41






conversion, plus the number of Class D Common Shares held by the Participating Members prior
to such deemed conversion, the “Total Conversion Shares”). For clarity, such “deemed”
conversion pursuant to this Section 9.07(a) shall solely be for the purposes of calculating the
Tagged Shares, and no actual conversion shall occur pursuant to this Section 9.07(a).

(ii)    Second, the total number of Shares that are subject to Transfer is
determined (the “Total Tagged Shares”).

(iii)    Third, the Tagged Shares will be:

(A)    a number of Class A-1-A Preferred Shares equal to: (1)
Total Tagged Shares multiplied by a fraction, (x) the numerator of which is the number of
Class D Common Shares into which the Class A-1-A Preferred Shares of such Participation
Member were deemed converted pursuant to subsection (i) above, and (y) the denominator of
which is the Total Conversion Shares divided by, (2) the A-1-A Preferred Share Conversion
Ratio;

(B)    a number of Class A-1-B Preferred Shares equal to: (1)
Total Tagged Shares multiplied by a fraction, (x) the numerator of which is the number of
Class D Common Shares into which the Class A-1-B Preferred Shares of such Participation
Member were deemed converted pursuant to subsection (i) above, and (y) the denominator of
which is the Total Conversion Shares divided by, (2) A-1-B Preferred Share Conversion Ratio;
and

(C)    a number of Class D Common Shares equal to: Total
Tagged Shares multiplied by a fraction, (1) the numerator of which is the number of Class D
Common Shares held by the Participating Member prior to the deemed conversion pursuant to
subsection (i) above, and (2) the denominator of which is the Total Conversion Shares.

(b) Immediately prior to the consummation of the Transfer to the Independent
Third Party, the Tagged Shares will be automatically, and without any further action, be actually
converted into Class D Common Shares pursuant to Section 2.09(b). The Transferring Holder(s)
and each participating Participation Member shall receive the same form of consideration and the
aggregate net consideration (after such aggregate net consideration is adjusted for Company
expenses, purchase price adjustments, escrow amounts, purchase price holdbacks, indemnity
obligations and other similar items) shall be divided ratably among the Transferring Holder and
each participating Participation Member based upon their respective numbers of Shares included
in the Transfer.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.07, the
Transferring Holder(s) shall not consummate the Transfer contemplated by the Tag Notice at a
higher price or on other terms and conditions more favorable to them, in the aggregate, than the
terms set forth in the Tag Notice (including as to price per Class A-1 Preferred Share or form of
consideration to be received) unless the Transferring Holder(s) shall first have delivered a second
notice setting forth such more favorable terms (the “Amended Tag Notice”) to each
Participation Member who had not elected to participate in the contemplated Transfer. Each
Participation Member receiving an Amended Tag Notice may elect to participate in the

42






contemplated Transfer on such amended terms by delivering written notice to the Transferring
Holder(s) not later than ten (10) Business Days after delivery of the Amended Tag Notice.

(d)    Each Participation Member shall pay his, her or its own costs of any sale
and a pro rata share (based upon the reduction in proceeds that would have been allocated to
such Member if the amount of such expense were not included in the aggregate consideration) of
the expenses incurred by the Members (to the extent such costs are incurred for the benefit of all
of such Members and are not otherwise paid by the Transferee) and the Company in connection
with such Transfer and shall be obligated to provide the same customary representations,
warranties, covenants, agreements, indemnities and other obligations that the Transferring
Holder(s) agrees to provide in connection with such Transfer; provided, that in no event will a
Participation Member be required to enter into a non-competition agreement or be subject to any
similar covenant or provision. Except as contemplated by the preceding sentence, each
Participation Member shall execute and deliver all documents required to be executed in
connection with such tag-along sale transaction.

(e)    Without limiting the generality of the other provisions of this Section 9.07,
the Transferring Holder(s) shall decide whether or not to pursue, consummate, postpone or
abandon any Transfer and, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 9.07, the terms and
conditions thereof. None of the Transferring Holder(s) nor any of their respective Affiliates shall
have any liability to any Member arising from, relating to or in connection with the pursuit,
consummation, postponement, abandonment or terms and conditions of any such Transfer except
to the extent the Transferring Holder(s) shall have failed to comply with any of the other
provisions of this Section 9.07.

9.08    Sale of the Company.

(a)    Provided that a Drag-Along Notice has not been delivered and the
procedures in Section 9.09 are not then currently in effect, notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Agreement, the Board of Directors may (subject to Section 5.11) elect to cause a
Sale of the Company at any time. The Board of Directors shall direct and control all decisions in
connection with a Sale of the Company (including the hiring or termination of any investment
bank or professional adviser and making all decisions regarding valuation and consideration and
the percentage of the Equity Securities in the Company to be sold) and, subject to
Section 9.08(b) and Section 9.08(d), and without prejudice to Section 5.11, each Member shall
vote for, consent to and not object to such Sale of the Company or the sale process associated
therewith. If such Sale of the Company is structured as a sale of assets, merger or consolidation,
then each Member shall, to the extent applicable to such transaction, vote for or consent to, and
waive any dissenter’s rights, appraisal rights or similar rights in connection with, such sale,
merger or consolidation. If such Sale of the Company is structured as a Transfer of Shares, and
the Sale of the Company involves less than all of the Shares in the Company, then each Member
shall Transfer the same percentage of each class or series of Shares (or rights to acquire Shares
of any class or series) that it holds. Each Member and the Company shall take all reasonable and
necessary actions in connection with the consummation of such Sale of the Company as may be
requested by the Board of Directors, including (i) in the case of the Company only, engaging one
or more investment banks and legal counsel selected by the Board of Directors to establish
procedures acceptable to the Board of Directors to effect and to otherwise assist in connection

43





with a Sale of the Company, (ii) taking such commercially reasonable actions and providing such
commercially reasonable cooperation and assistance as may be necessary to consummate the
Sale of the Company in an expeditious and efficient manner and not taking any action or
engaging in any activity designed to hinder, prevent or delay the consummation of the Sale of the
Company, (iii) in the case of the Company only, facilitating the due diligence process in respect
of any such Sale of the Company, including establishing, populating and maintaining an online
“data room”, (iv) in the case of the Company only, providing any financial or other information
or audit required by the proposed buyer’s financing sources and (v) the execution of such
agreements and such instruments and other actions reasonably necessary in connection with the
Sale of the Company, including to provide customary representations, warranties, indemnities
and escrow arrangements relating thereto, in each case in accordance with and subject to the
limitations set forth in Section 9.08(d).

(b)    The obligations of the Members with respect to a Sale of the Company are
subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions: (i) upon the consummation of such Sale of
the Company, each holder of Shares, to the extent such holder is receiving any consideration,
shall receive the same form(s) of consideration as each other holder of Shares receives (or the
option to receive the same form of consideration), and (ii) the Sale of the Company will be a
Deemed Liquidation Event and the aggregate consideration payable upon consummation of such
Sale of the Company to all holders of Shares in respect of their Shares shall be apportioned and
distributed (after such aggregate consideration is adjusted for Company expenses, purchase price
adjustments, escrow amounts, purchase price holdbacks, indemnity obligations and other similar
items) as between the classes of Shares in accordance with the relevant provisions of
Section 3.02 (assuming that, if such Sale of the Company is structured as a Transfer of Shares
and less than all of the Shares are being Transferred, the Shares included in the Transfer are all
of the Shares outstanding). For clarity, the application of Section 3.02 may result in some Shares
included in the Transfer not receiving any consideration with respect to such Sale of the
Company.

(c)    If the Company, or if the holders of any Shares, enter into any negotiation
or transaction for which Rule 506 (or any similar rule then in effect) promulgated by the SEC
may be available with respect to such negotiation or transaction (including a merger,
consolidation, or other reorganization), each holder of Equity Securities will, at the request of the
Company, appoint either a purchaser representative (as such term is defined in Rule 501)
designated by the Company, in which event the Company will pay the fees of such purchaser
representative, or another purchaser representative (reasonably acceptable to the Company), in
which event such holder will be responsible for the fees of the purchaser representative so
appointed. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in connection with any Sale of the
Company where the consideration in such Sale of the Company consists of or includes securities,
if the issuance of such securities to the Member would require either a registration statement
under the Securities Act, or preparation of a disclosure statement pursuant to Regulation D (or
any successor regulation) under the Securities Act, or preparation of a disclosure document under
a similar provision of any state securities law, and such registration statement or disclosure
statement or other disclosure document is not otherwise being prepared in connection with the
Sale of the Company, then, at the option of the Board of Directors, the Member may receive, in
lieu of such securities, the Fair Market Value of such securities in cash.



44





(d)    In connection with any Sale of the Company, each Member shall (i) make
such customary representations and warranties, including, as applicable, as to due organization
and good standing, power and authority, due approval, no conflicts and ownership and title of
Shares (including the absence of liens with respect to such Shares) and no litigation pending or
threatened against or affecting such Member relating to its ownership of Shares, agree to such
covenants and enter into such definitive agreements, in each case as are customary for
transactions of the nature of the Sale of the Company; provided, that no Member shall be
required to make any representation or warranty or agree to any covenant that is more extensive
or burdensome than those made by the other Members (provided, that (A) in no event will the
GM Investor or any of its Affiliates or SoftBank or any of its Affiliates be required to enter into a
non-competition agreement or be subject to any similar covenant or provision and (B) the
Employee Members may be required to enter into certain covenants, including non-compete and
non-solicit obligations) and (ii) be obligated to join on a several, and not joint, basis (determined
in accordance with such Member’s proportionate share of the proceeds from the Sale of the
Company) in any indemnification or other obligations that are part of the terms and conditions of
the Sale of the Company (other than to the extent of any escrows or holdbacks established in
connection with such Sale of the Company); provided, that no Member shall be obligated (A) to
provide indemnification with respect to the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements
of any other Member (other than to the extent of any escrows or holdbacks established in
connection with such Sale of the Company), or (B) to incur liability to any Person in connection
with such Sale of the Company, including under any indemnity, in excess of the consideration
received by such Person in the Sale of the Company (other than for fraud or breach of a
covenant).

(e)    Each Member will bear his, her or its proportionate share of the costs
incurred in connection with a Sale of the Company to the extent such costs are incurred for the
benefit of all such holders of Shares and are not otherwise paid by the Company or the acquiring
party. Costs incurred by the holders of Shares on their own behalf will not be considered costs
of the Sale of the Company.

(f)    Any contingent consideration (whether as a result of a release of an
escrow or the payment of an “earn out” or otherwise) to be paid in connection with a Sale of the
Company shall be allocated among the Members such that each Member receives the amount
which such Member would have received if such consideration had been received by the
Company and distributed as the next incremental dollars following the Distribution of any
amounts previously paid under this Agreement or paid in connection with such Sale of the
Company (assuming for such purposes that the Shares Transferred constitute all of the Shares).
In the event any Member is liable in such Sale of the Company for amounts in excess of any
escrow or holdback (other than any such obligations that relate specifically to a particular
Member, such as indemnification with respect to representations and warranties given by a
Member regarding such Person’s title to and ownership of Shares), such amounts shall be treated
as a deduct to the consideration payable in such Sale of the Company and the aggregate
consideration shall be re-allocated among the Members in accordance with Section 9.08(b). The
Members agree that to the extent, as a result of such re-allocation, a Member has received more
than its share of the consideration pursuant to such re-allocation, such Member shall deliver such
excess to the appropriate Member(s) in order for each Member to receive its appropriate share of
the consideration.


45





(g)    Without limiting the generality of the other provisions of this Section 9.08
but subject to Section 5.11, the Board of Directors shall determine whether or not to pursue,
consummate, postpone or abandon any Sale of the Company and, subject to the limitations
expressly set forth in this Section 9.08, the terms and conditions thereof.

(h)    The provisions of this Section 9.08 shall not apply to any transaction
pursuant to Sections 9.10 or 9.12.

9.09    Drag-Along.

(a)    If the GM Investor proposes to Transfer more than fifty percent (50%) of
the issued and outstanding Equity Securities to an Independent Third Party prior to an IPO (other
than any Transfer (i) as provided in Section 9.08, (ii) in connection with Section 9.10, or (iii)
pursuant to Section 9.12), the GM Investor shall have the right (but not the obligation) to deliver
a written notice (such notice, the “Drag-Along Notice”) of its intention to do so to each other
Member (the “Dragees”). The Drag-Along Notice shall set forth the aggregate consideration to
be paid by the Independent Third Party and the other material terms and conditions of such
transaction (a “Drag-Along Sale Transaction”), which shall be the same (in all but de minimis
and immaterial respects) for the GM Investor and the other Members except as otherwise
contemplated by this Agreement. Upon receipt of the Drag-Along Notice, each Dragee shall be
required to participate in the proposed Transfer in accordance with the terms and conditions of
this Section 9.09; provided, that if such Drag-Along Sale Transaction involves less than one
hundred percent (100%) of the Shares held by the GM Investor, then each Dragee will only be
required to participate in the proposed Transfer to the Independent Third Party with respect to
such percentage of each class of its Shares as equals the percentage of the GM Investor’s total
Shares being sold in such Drag-Along Sale Transaction (the “Drag Percentage”). If the GM
Investor is given an option as to the form and amount of consideration to be received under this
Section 9.09, all Dragees shall be given the same option and, otherwise, the ratio of both (i) any
cash to any non-cash consideration and (ii) among any type of non-cash property or asset
consideration to any other type of non-cash property or asset consideration shall be equal (to the
extent reasonably practicable) for each of the GM Investor and the Dragees. Within ten (10)
Business Days following receipt of the Drag-Along Notice, each Dragee shall deliver to a
representative of the Company or the GM Member designated in the Drag-Along Notice such
certificates (if certificated) representing all Shares (or the Drag Percentage of each class of its
Shares, as applicable) held by such Dragee or in other cases mutually acceptable instruments of
transfer duly endorsed, together with a limited power-of-attorney authorizing the Company and
the GM Investor to sell or otherwise dispose of such Shares pursuant to the proposed Transfer to
the Independent Third Party, as well as any other documents required to be executed in
connection with such transaction. In the event that any Dragee should fail to deliver such
certificates (if certificated) or other documentation to the Company or the GM Investor’s
representative, the Company shall cause the books and records of the Company to show that the
Shares of such Dragee are bound by the provisions of this Section 9.09 and that such Shares may
be Transferred only to the Independent Third Party.

(b)    The Company and the GM Investor shall have ninety (90) days following
delivery of the Drag-Along Notice to complete the Transfer of the Shares in accordance with this
Section 9.09; provided, that if such Transfer would require the GM Investor, any Dragee, the


46





Independent Third Party, the Company or an Affiliate of any of the foregoing to obtain any
regulatory approval prior to consummating such sale, such ninety (90) day period shall be
extended to the date that is five (5) Business Days after such regulatory approval has been
obtained or finally denied. If, within such ninety (90) day period (as it may be extended) after
the Company or the GM Investor has given the Drag-Along Notice, it shall not have completed
the Transfer of all the Shares of the GM Investor and the Dragees in accordance with this
Section 9.09 the Company or the GM Investor shall return to each of the Dragees all certificates
(if certificated) representing Shares, or in other cases, mutually acceptable instruments of
transfer, that the Dragees delivered for Transfer pursuant hereto and that were not purchased in
accordance with this Section 9.09; provided, that (i) if any one or more of the Dragees defaults,
the Company or the GM Investor shall be permitted, but not obligated, to complete the sale by all
non-defaulting Dragees, and (ii) the completion of the sale by the Company or the GM Investor
and such non-defaulting Dragees shall not relieve a defaulting Dragee of liability for its breach.
All reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Company, the GM Investor and
the Dragees in connection with the Transfers set forth in this Section 9.09 shall be paid by the
Company.

(c)    A Drag-Along Sale Transaction will be a Deemed Liquidation Event and
the aggregate consideration payable upon consummation of such Drag-Along Sale Transaction to
all holders of Shares in respect of their Shares included in such Drag-Along Sale Transaction
shall be apportioned and distributed (after such aggregate consideration is adjusted for Company
expenses, purchase price adjustments, escrow amounts, purchase price holdbacks, indemnity
obligations and other similar items) as between the classes of Shares included in such Drag-
Along Sale Transaction in accordance with the relevant provisions of Section 3.02 (it being
understood that, if less than all of the Shares are being Transferred, for purposes of such
calculations, it shall be assumed that the Shares included in such Drag-Along Sale Transaction
constitute all of the Shares outstanding). For clarity, the application of Section 3.02 may result
in some Shares included in the Drag-Along Sale Transaction not receiving any consideration
with respect to such Drag-Along Sale Transaction.

(d)    The provisions of this Section 9.09 shall not apply to any Transfer to a
Permitted Transferee in accordance with Section 9.02.

9.10    Public Offering.

(a)    If the Board of Directors authorizes (subject to Section 5.11 and
Section 6.13(d)) the Company to undertake an IPO (which may be abandoned at any time prior
to its consummation by the Board of Directors), or the GM Investor notifies the Company that it
wishes to consummate an IPO that takes the form of distribution of IPO Shares to the
stockholders of GM Parent pursuant to a Form 10 (or any successor form), then each of the
Company, the Members and any holder of Equity Securities agrees to, and agrees to cause its
Affiliates to, take such commercially reasonable actions and provide such commercially
reasonable cooperation and assistance as may be necessary to consummate the IPO in an
expeditious and efficient manner and not to take any action or engage in any activity designed to
hinder, prevent or delay the consummation of the IPO. Subject to Section 9.10(b), in connection
with the IPO, each Share will be exchanged on an as-converted basis as if all Junior Interests are
converted on a 1:1 basis (as adjusted, as necessary, to reflect appropriate and proportional


47





adjustments to take into account any subdivision, reorganization, reclassification,
recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, combination of shares or similar event) and all
Class A-1 Preferred Shares are converted in accordance with Section 2.09(b), for one share or
unit (as applicable) of the single type of equity security of the Company that is listed and
admitted for trading on the New York Stock Exchange, the NASDAQ Stock Market or other
nationally recognized exchange (the “IPO Shares”). For purposes of this Section 9.10 and
Section 9.11, all references to “Company” shall also refer to (i) any corporate successor to the
Company or (ii) any parent or Subsidiary of the Company, in each case which effects the IPO.

(b)    The IPO Shares issued to (i) each Class A-1 Preferred Member with
respect to each Class A-1 Preferred Share, each Class B Common Member with respect to each
Class B Common Share and each Class D Common Member with respect to each Class D
Common Share and (ii) any other Investor in respect of Equity Securities issued pursuant to
Section 2.05 (if such Equity Securities are designated as low-vote Equity Securities by the Board
of Directors at the time of issuance or at any time thereafter) (collectively, the “Low-Vote IPO
Shares”) will be of a different class to each other IPO Share. The Low-Vote IPO Shares will be
identical to each other IPO Share, except that they will be entitled only to the number of votes
(including a fraction of a vote) per Low-Vote IPO Share on all matters on which stockholders of
the Company may vote (including the election of directors) as will be reasonably determined by
the GM Investor to enable the GM Investor to establish or maintain “control” (within the
meaning of Section 368(c) of the Code) of the Company at the time of the consummation of the
IPO (in the case of an IPO effected by a “spin-off” or “split-off” transaction), or immediately
after the consummation of the IPO (in the case of any other IPO), in each case taking into
account any other planned issuances or transfers of IPO Shares. Each Member, including each
Class A-1 Preferred Member, will take all reasonable action requested by the Company to give
effect to this Section 9.10(b) and to cause GM to have “control” within the meaning of
Section 368(c) of the Code immediately prior to any “spin-off” or “split-off” transaction.

(c)    Without limiting (and without prejudice to) the other subsections of this
Section 9.10, if immediately prior to an IPO the Board of Directors determines that it is in the
best interests of the Company and its Members (taken as a whole) to engage in a reorganization
pursuant to which a new corporation, limited liability company, partnership or other entity (the
Entity”) is formed and the Equity Securities of the company are recapitalized or reorganized
into classes of Equity Securities of the Entity, then each Member will (i) consent (and, to the
extent required, vote in favor of) such recapitalization, reorganization or exchange of the existing
Equity Securities of the Company into the Equity Securities of the Entity, and (ii) take all such
reasonable actions that are necessary in connection with the consummation of the
recapitalization, reorganization or exchange, including entering into a new stockholders’
agreement, members’ agreement, limited liability company agreement, employee equity
arrangements and/or other agreements and arrangements in respect of the Equity Securities of the
Entity, in each case, on terms and conditions substantially similar to such agreements and
arrangements in respect of the Equity Securities of the Company that are in effect immediately
prior to such recapitalization or reorganization; provided, that the Board of Directors shall not be
permitted to approve, the Company shall not be permitted to engage in, and no Member shall be
required to provide any consent to or to take any action in connection with, any such formation,
recapitalization or reorganization, in each case if (A) such formation, recapitalization or
reorganization was undertaken in bad faith, (B) the intent or direct result of such formation,


48





recapitalization or reorganization is or would be to impair, in any material respect, the express
rights of any Member hereunder or (C) such formation, recapitalization or reorganization
adversely affects any Member in a manner which is disproportionate to the other Members
(except as contemplated by this Section 9.10). For the avoidance of doubt, any reorganization or
recapitalization undertaken pursuant to this Section 9.10(c) shall include provision for an Equity
Security analogous to the Low-Vote IPO Shares described in Section 9.10(b) above.

9.11    Registration Rights; “Market Stand-Off” Agreement; Volume Restrictions.

(a)    After the consummation of an IPO pursuant to Section 9.10, the Company
shall grant to (i) the GM Investor an unlimited number of demand registration rights (including
underwritten offerings), (ii) each Class A-1 Preferred Member that, together with its Affiliates,
beneficially owns more than ten percent (10%) of the Equity Securities in the Company, demand
registration rights (including underwritten offerings) and (iii) all Members that, together with its
Affiliates, beneficially own more than five percent (5%) of the Equity Securities in the
Company, piggyback registration rights and shelf registration rights, in each case, subject to
customary terms and conditions as at the time of the IPO; provided, that the Class A-1 Preferred
Members may collectively exercise up to three (3) demands, the Company shall not be required
to consummate more than one (1) demand registration (including underwritten offering) per
ninety (90) day period, the Company shall not be required to consummate any demand
registration (including underwritten offering) expected to realize less than $100,000,000 of gross
proceeds (before deduction of any underwriting discount, fees or expenses) and the Company
may suspend registration rights for up to one hundred twenty (120) days in any calendar year if
the filing or maintenance of a registration statement would, if not so suspended, adversely affect
a proposed corporate transaction or adversely affect the Company by requiring premature
disclosure of confidential information.

(b)    Each Member hereby agrees that (i) during the period of duration (up to,
but not exceeding, one hundred eighty (180) days) specified by the Company and an underwriter
of Equity Securities of the Company or its successor, following the date of the final prospectus
distributed in connection with the IPO, it shall not, to the extent requested by the Company and
such underwriter, directly or indirectly sell, offer to sell, contract to sell (including any short sale
or other hedging transaction), grant any option to purchase or otherwise Transfer or dispose of
(other than to donees who agree to be similarly bound) any Equity Securities held by it at any
time during such period except for such Equity Securities as shall be included in such
registration and (ii) it shall, if requested by the managing underwriter or underwriters in
connection with the IPO, execute a customary “lockup” agreement in the form requested by the
managing underwriter or underwriters with a duration not to exceed one hundred eighty (180)
days.

(c)    Each Member hereby agrees that (i) during the period of duration (up to,
but not exceeding, ninety (90) days) specified by the Company and an underwriter of Equity
Securities of the Company or its successor, following the date of the final prospectus distributed
in connection with an underwritten public follow-on offering, it shall not, to the extent requested
by the Company and such underwriter, directly or indirectly sell, offer to sell, contract to sell
(including any short sale or other hedging transaction), grant any option to purchase or otherwise
Transfer or dispose of (other than to donees who agree to be similarly bound) any Equity


49





Securities held by it at any time during such period except for such Equity Securities as shall be
included in such registration and (ii) it shall, if requested by the managing underwriter or
underwriters in connection with an underwritten public follow-on offering, execute a customary
“lockup” agreement in the form requested by the managing underwriter or underwriters with a
duration not to exceed ninety (90) days.

(d)    All Members shall be treated similarly with respect to any release prior to
the termination of the time periods for the transfer restrictions contemplated by Section 9.11(b)
and Section 9.11(c) (including any extension thereof) such that if any such persons are released,
then all Members shall also be released to the same extent on a pro rata basis. In order to enforce
the foregoing covenant in connection with the IPO or an underwritten public follow-on offering,
the Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Equity Securities of each
Member and its Affiliates (and the Equity Securities of every other Person subject to the
foregoing restriction) until the end of such period, and each Member agrees that, if so requested,
such Member will execute, and will cause its Affiliates to execute, an agreement in the form
provided by the underwriter containing terms which are essentially consistent with the provisions
of Section 9.11(a), Section 9.11(b) and Section 9.11(c). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
obligations described in Section 9.11(a), Section 9.11(b) and Section 9.11(c) shall not apply to a
registration relating solely to employee benefit plans on Form S-1 or Form S-8 or similar forms
which may be promulgated in the future, or a registration relating solely to an SEC Rule 145
transaction on Form S-4 or similar forms which may be promulgated in the future.

9.12    GM Call Right.

(a)    At any time after the Trigger Date, the Company will have the right, by
providing written notice to each Class A-1 Preferred Member, each Class D Member and the
Board of Directors (the “Call Notice”), to purchase from each Class A-1 Preferred Member and
each Class D Member all (but not less than all) of the Class A-1 Preferred Shares and Class D
Common Shares then owned by such Members (and any other Equity Securities held by such
Members) in exchange for a cash purchase price (i) per Class A-1 Preferred Share equal to the
greater of (A) the applicable Class A-1 Liquidation Preference Amount, and (B) the Per Class A-
1 Preferred Share FMV, and (ii) per Class D Common Share (or any other Equity Securities held
by such Members) equal to the Per Class A-1 Preferred Share FMV (collectively, the “Class A-
1/D Purchase”). Delivery of the Call Notice will commence the process set forth on Exhibit II.
If an Optional SoftBank Conversion Notice has been delivered pursuant to Section 9.13 and,
subsequent to the delivery of such Optional SoftBank Conversion Notice, a Call Notice is
delivered, then the process contemplated by Section 9.13 shall be suspended (it being understood
that if the Class A-1/D Purchase is subsequently terminated or otherwise fails to be
consummated, the process contemplated by Section 9.13 shall resume); provided, that if, at the
time the Call Notice is delivered, the calculation of Call Notice/Optional SoftBank Conversion
Notice Fair Market Value is ongoing pursuant to Section 9.13 (but has not yet been finalized),
such calculation shall continue and shall be utilized to calculate the Per Class A-1 Preferred
Share FMV required by this Section 9.12.

(b)    The Company and each Class A-1 Preferred Member and Class D
Member will consummate the Class A-1/D Purchase as soon as reasonably practicable and, in
any event, within thirty (30) days following the date of determination of the Per Class A-1


50






Preferred Share FMV. The Class A-1/D Purchase shall be memorialized in a written agreement
containing customary terms for a transaction of this type; provided, that no Class A-1 Preferred
Member or Class D Member shall be required to make any representations or warranties other
than representations and warranties as to due organization and good standing, power and
authority, due approval, no conflicts and ownership and title of Shares (including the absence of
liens with respect to such Shares), no brokers and no litigation pending or threatened against or
affecting such Member relating to its ownership of Shares.

(c)    Each Class A-1 Preferred Member and Class D Member shall take all
commercially reasonable actions and provide such other commercially reasonable cooperation
and assistance as may be necessary to consummate the Class A-1/D Purchase in an expeditious
and efficient manner and will not take any action or engage in any activity designed to hinder,
prevent or delay the consummation of the Class A-1/D Purchase.

(d)    At any time after the Trigger Date, the GM Investor (or one of its
Affiliates) may issue the Call Notice in lieu of the Company, in which event all references to the
Company in this Section 9.12 (other than this Section 9.12(d)) shall be deemed to be references
to the GM Investor.

9.13    Optional SoftBank Conversion.

(a)    If an IPO, Sale of the Company or dissolution (pursuant to Article X) has
not been consummated prior to the Trigger Date then, at any time after the Trigger Date and
subject to Section 9.12(a), SoftBank or its Permitted Transferee shall be entitled to deliver to the
Board of Directors an irrevocable written notice (the “Optional SoftBank Conversion Notice”)
requiring the Company to, at the election of the GM Investor (i) use its reasonable best efforts to
redeem all, but not less than all, of SoftBank’s Class A-1 Preferred Shares and Class D Shares
for common stock of GM Parent, or (ii) redeem all, but not less than all of SoftBank’s Class A-1
Preferred Shares and Class D Shares for cash, in each case on the terms set forth herein and, in
the case of sub-section (i), on the terms set forth in the Exchange Agreement. Delivery of the
Optional SoftBank Conversion Notice will commence the process set forth on Exhibit II.

(b)    Within ten (10) Business Days of the date of determination of the final
Call Notice/Optional SoftBank Conversion Notice Fair Market Value pursuant to Exhibit II, the
Company will deliver written notice to SoftBank, informing SoftBank of the Call
Notice/Optional SoftBank Conversion Notice Fair Market Value and whether the GM Investor
has elected to have the Company redeem SoftBank’s Class A-1 Preferred Shares and Class D
Shares (i) for cash, at a per Share value equal to the applicable Optional SoftBank Conversion
Share Price (the “Cash Election”), or (ii) in exchange for common stock of GM Parent on the
terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Exchange Agreement in which case GM
Parent and SoftBank or its Permitted Transferee will enter into the Exchange Agreement (the
Stock Election”). If, upon consummation of the Sale of GM Parent, GM Parent (it being
understood that if GM has merged or consolidated into any other Person or sold all or
substantially all of its assets in any one or a series of related to transactions to such other Person,
GM Parent shall include such successor or other Person) is not listed or traded on the New York
Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ Stock Market or any successor exchange or market thereof,
any national securities exchange (registered with the SEC under Section 6 of the Securities

51





Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) or any other established non-U.S. exchange, then the GM
Acquirer shall be required to settle any Stock Election pursuant to this Section 9.13 in cash.

(c)    If the Cash Election is made, the Company and SoftBank or its Permitted
Transferee will consummate the redemption by the Company of the Class A-1 Preferred Shares
and Class D Shares (the “Optional SoftBank Conversion Purchase”) as soon as reasonably
practicable and in any event within thirty (30) days of the Cash Election. The place for closing
shall be the principal office of the Company or at such other place as the Company may
reasonably determine. In the event of a Cash Election, at the closing thereof SoftBank shall
deliver to the Company certificates (if certificated) for its Class A-1 Preferred Shares and
Class D Shares or, in other cases, mutually acceptable instruments of transfer, in exchange for
payment (per Class A-1 Preferred Share and Class D Share held by SoftBank) of the relevant
Optional SoftBank Conversion Share Price. The Optional SoftBank Conversion Purchase shall
be memorialized in a written agreement containing representations and warranties as to due
organization and good standing, power and authority, due approval, no conflicts and ownership
and title of Shares (including the absence of liens with respect to such Shares), no brokers and no
litigation pending or threatened against or affecting SoftBank relating to its ownership of Shares.
Each of the Company and SoftBank or its Permitted Transferee shall bear its own costs and
expense incurred in connection with the Optional SoftBank Conversion Purchase.

(d)    If the Stock Election is made, SoftBank or its Permitted Transferee will
(and the Company and the GM Investor will cause GM Parent to) promptly (and in any event
within five (5) days) enter into the Exchange Agreement.

(e)    If the Company, acting reasonably and in good faith, determines that a
filing, notice, approval, consent, registration, permit, authorization or confirmation from any
Governmental Authority may be required to consummate the transactions set forth in the
Exchange Agreement, then the Company and SoftBank or its Permitted Transferee shall (and
SoftBank shall cause its Affiliates to) reasonably cooperate in good faith during the pendency of
the calculation of the Call Notice/Optional SoftBank Conversion Notice Fair Market Value to
seek to obtain such approvals as promptly as practicable such that in the event a Stock Election is
made the period between signing the Exchange Agreement and closing the transaction
thereunder would be reduced. For clarity, nothing in this Section 9.13(e) will require the
Company to make a Stock Election (as opposed to a Cash Election) and the intention of this
Section 9.13(e) is solely to take such actions as may reduce (in the event a Stock Election is
made) the period between the execution of the Exchange Agreement and the consummation of
the transactions contemplated thereby.

(f)    In lieu of a redemption of the Class A-1 Preferred Shares and Class D
Shares by the Company pursuant to this Section 9.13, the GM Investor will have the right to
have such Class A-1 Preferred Shares and Class D Shares transferred to the GM Investor (or its
Affiliates) and, if a Cash Election has been made, to have the GM Investor (or its Affiliates)
make the applicable cash payments.

(g)    If an Optional SoftBank Conversion Notice has been delivered and an IPO
or a Sale of the Company is pending, but has not yet been consummated, SoftBank will, and will
cause its Affiliates to, reasonably cooperate with the Company and each other Member to ensure


52





that the IPO or Sale of the Company, as applicable, is carried out in an expeditious manner and
minimizing the effect (economically or otherwise) on such IPO or Sale of the Company of this
Section 9.13.

ARTICLE X
DISSOLUTION

10.01    Events of Dissolution. The Company shall be dissolved upon the occurrence of
any of the following events and its business and affairs shall thereafter be liquidated and wound
up pursuant to the Act:

(a)    upon the approval of the Board of Directors or a Majority of the Members;

(b)    upon the issuance of a final and nonappealable judicial decree of
dissolution; or

(c)    as otherwise required by the Act, except that the death, retirement,
resignation, expulsion, bankruptcy or dissolution of a Member shall not result in dissolution of
the Company.

10.02    Liquidation and Termination. On dissolution of the Company, the Board of
Directors shall act as the liquidator or may appoint one or more Members as liquidator. The
liquidator shall proceed diligently to wind up the affairs of the Company and make final
distributions as provided herein and in the Act. The costs of liquidation shall be borne as a
Company expense. Until final distribution, the liquidator shall continue to operate the Company
properties with all of the power and authority of the Board of Directors. The steps to be
accomplished by the liquidator are as follows:

(a)    as promptly as possible after dissolution and again after final liquidation,
the liquidator shall cause a proper accounting to be made by a recognized firm of certified public
accountants of the Company’s assets, liabilities and operations through the last day of the
calendar month in which the dissolution occurs or the final liquidation is completed, as
applicable;

(b)    the liquidator shall cause the notice described in the Act to be mailed to
each known creditor of and claimant against the Company in the manner described thereunder;

(c)    the liquidator shall pay, satisfy or discharge from Company funds all of
the debts, liabilities and obligations of the Company (including all expenses incurred in
liquidation) or otherwise make adequate provision for payment and discharge thereof;


(d)    the liquidator shall make reasonable provision to pay all contingent,
conditional or unmatured contractual claims known to the Company;

(e)    the liquidator shall make such provision as will be reasonably likely to be
sufficient to provide compensation for any claim against the Company which is the subject of a
pending action, suit or proceeding to which the Company is a party;

53






(f)    the liquidator shall make such provision as will be reasonably likely to be
sufficient for claims that have not been made known to the Company or that have not arisen but
that, based on facts known to the Company, are likely to arise or to become known to the
Company after the date of dissolution;

(g)    the liquidator shall distribute all remaining assets of the Company by the
end of the taxable year of the Company during which the liquidation of the Company occurs (or,
if later, 90 days after the date of the liquidation) in accordance with Section 3.02 (but subject to
the other applicable provisions in this Agreement); and

(h)    all distributions in kind to the Members shall be made subject to the
liability of each distributee for costs, expenses and liabilities theretofore incurred or for which
the Company has committed prior to the date of termination, and those costs, expenses and
liabilities shall be allocated to the distributees pursuant to this Section 10.02. The distribution of
cash and/or property to a Member in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.02
constitutes a complete return to the Member of its Capital Contributions and a complete
distribution to the Member of its interest in the Company and all of the Company’s property and
constitutes a compromise to which all Members have consented within the meaning of the Act.
To the extent that a Member returns funds to the Company, it has no claim against any other
Member for those funds.

10.03    Cancellation of Certificate. On completion of the distribution of Company
assets as provided herein, the Company shall be terminated, and the Board of Directors (or such
other Person or Persons as the Act may require or permit) shall file a certificate of cancellation
with the Secretary of State of Delaware, and take such other actions as may be necessary to
terminate the Company.

ARTICLE XI

11.01    Exclusivity. During the Control Period, other than pursuant to the Commercial

the GM Investor or its Subsidiaries from engaging in the GM Business in any manner
whatsoever;

(b)    without the prior written consent of the GM Investor, the Company and its
Subsidiaries shall not, directly or indirectly, engage in the GM Business; provided, that nothing

AVCo Business in any manner whatsoever; and

54





(c)    the Company and its Subsidiaries shall exclusively (i) obtain, purchase,
source, license, lease, or otherwise acquire assets, services or rights that are of the type

equity or debt interest of any Person or as a principal, agent or otherwise (and, in each case,
without the prior written consent of the Other Party), engage in, carry on, participate in or have
any interest in the applicable Restricted Business.

(b)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, during the Non-Compete
Period, nothing in Section 11.02(a) shall restrict:

(i)    the GM Investor’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ ability to engage in,
carry on or participate in the GM Business;

(ii)    the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ ability to engage in,
carry on or participate in the AVCo Business;

(iii)    the GM Investor and its Subsidiaries or the Company and its
Subsidiaries from operating its business as conducted at any time prior to the end of the Control
Period (to the extent that such prior operation or conduct did not violate Section 11.01);

(iv)    the GM Investor or any of its Subsidiaries from consummating an
OEM Acquisition;

(v)    the GM Investor or any of its Subsidiaries (collectively), or the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries (collectively), from consummating a Change of Control

Acquired Person either (each tested at the time of consummation of the Change of Control) (A)
derived more than twenty percent (20%) of its consolidated net revenue (calculated on a trailing

(collectively), as applicable, on or prior to the twelve (12) month anniversary of the date of
consummation of such Change of Control transaction, shall either (1) dispose of the Restricted

Business (or the assets used in connection therewith) of such Acquired Person or (2) cause such
Acquired Person to cease to engaging in the Restricted Business;

(vi)    the GM Investor or any of its Subsidiaries (collectively), or the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries (collectively) from acquiring, owning or holding ten percent
(10%) or less of the outstanding shares of capital stock, which capital stock is regularly traded on
a recognized domestic or foreign securities exchange, of any Person engaged in the Restricted
Business, so long as the GM Investor and its Subsidiaries (collectively) or the Company and its
Subsidiaries (collectively), as applicable, is a passive investor and does not exercise any
influence over or participate in the management or operation of such Person (and, for clarity,
exercising rights as a stockholder or member will not constitute influence or participation);

(vii)    the GM Investor or any of its Subsidiaries from engaging in or
consummating any transaction that would constitute a Change of Control;

(viii)    General Motors Ventures LLC (and not the GM Investor or any of
its Subsidiaries) from acquiring capital stock or other ownership interests, or owning or holding

Compete Period).

(c)    Immediately prior to the end of the Control Period, GM and the Company
will enter into and deliver a standalone agreement memorializing (and containing terms
consistent with) this Section 11.02, the intention being to enable the terms and conditions of this
Section 11.02 to survive if this Agreement is terminated or materially amended at such time or
any time thereafter.

(d)    For the purposes of this Article XI, the Company and its Subsidiaries are
not Subsidiaries of the GM Investor.

ARTICLE XII
GENERAL PROVISIONS

12.01    Expenses.    Each Member and its Affiliates will be responsible for its own
expenses in connection with the preparation and negotiation of this Agreement.

12.02    No Third-Party Rights. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein
(including Sections 4.03 and 7.02), nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to grant rights
to any Person who is not a party to this Agreement.

56





12.03    Legend on Certificates for Certificated Shares. If Certificated Shares are
issued, such Certificated Shares will bear the following legend:

“THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE WERE
ORIGINALLY ISSUED ON _______________, _____, HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED
(THE “ACT”), OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS (“STATE
ACTS”) AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED,
TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF AN
EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT OR STATE
ACTS OR AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION THEREUNDER.

THE TRANSFER OF THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS
CERTIFICATE IS SUBJECT TO THE CONDITIONS SPECIFIED IN AN
AMENDED AND RESTATED LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY
AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF JUNE 28, 2018, AS AMENDED AND
MODIFIED FROM TIME TO TIME, GOVERNING THE ISSUER (THE
COMPANY”), AND BY AND AMONG ITS MEMBERS (THE “LLC
AGREEMENT”). THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE
MAY ALSO BE SUBJECT TO ADDITIONAL TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS,

AGREEMENT AND/OR A SHARE GRANT AGREEMENT WITH THE
INITIAL HOLDER. A COPY OF SUCH CONDITIONS, REPURCHASE
OPTIONS AND FORFEITURE PROVISIONS SHALL BE FURNISHED BY
THE COMPANY TO THE HOLDER HEREOF UPON WRITTEN REQUEST
AND WITHOUT CHARGE.”

If a Member holding Certificated Shares delivers to the Company an opinion of counsel,
satisfactory in form and substance to the Board of Directors (which opinion may be waived by
the Board of Directors), that no subsequent Transfer of such Shares will require registration
under the Securities Act, the Company will promptly upon such contemplated Transfer deliver
new Certificated Shares which do not bear the portion of the restrictive legend relating to the
Securities Act set forth in this Section 12.03.

12.04    Confidentiality.

(a)    Each Member expressly agrees to maintain, and to cause its Director and
Board Observer nominees (as applicable) to maintain, the confidentiality of, and not to disclose

acquiring all or a material portion of the assets or Equity Securities of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries), (ii) another Member, (iii) such Member’s or, in the case of SoftBank any of its or
its Affiliate’s, financial planners, accountants, attorneys or other advisors or employees or
representatives that need to know such information in connection with the monitoring of the
Company, the Member or his, her or its Affiliates or in the normal course of operations of such
Member or (iv) in the case of, following the Transfer made pursuant to, and in compliance with,
Section 9.02(c), SVFA or any of its Affiliates, disclosure of information (or any information


57





derived from or based upon such information) of the type specified to SVF prior to the execution
of the Purchase Agreement to its current or prospective investors in the ordinary course of
business (provided that, in the case of clauses (iii) and (iv), the Member advises any such Person
of the confidential nature of such information and such Person is directed to keep such
information confidential, it being understood and agreed that such Member shall be responsible
for any breach by any such Person of this Section 12.04), any information relating to the
business, financial structure, intellectual property, assets, liabilities, data, financial position or
financial results, borrowers, contract counterparties, clients or affairs of the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries that shall not be generally known to the public, except as otherwise required by
applicable law, stock exchange requirements or required or requested by any Governmental
Authority having jurisdiction, in which case (except with respect to disclosure that is required in
connection with the filing of federal, state and local tax returns or to the extent that the receiving
party agrees to keep any such information confidential) prior to making such disclosure such
Member shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law or by such Governmental Authority,
give written notice to the Company, permit the Company to review and comment upon the form
and substance of such disclosure and allow the Company to seek confidential treatment therefor,
and in the case of any Member who is employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in
the ordinary course of his or her duties to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. This Section
12.04 will not apply to the GM Investor, any A-2 Preferred Director or the Common Director.

(b)    The terms of this Section 12.04 shall apply to a Member during the time
that such Person is a Member and for a period of two (2) years after such Person ceases to be a
Member.

12.05    Power of Attorney. Each of the Members does hereby constitute and appoint the
Board of Directors and the liquidator with full power to act without the others, as such Member’s
true and lawful representative and attorney in-fact, in such Member’s name, place and stead,
solely for the purpose of making, executing, signing, acknowledging and delivering or filing in
such form and substance as is approved by the Board of Directors or the liquidator (as the case
may be): (a) all instruments, documents and certificates which may from time to time be required
by any law to effectuate, implement and continue the valid and subsisting existence of the
Company, or to qualify or continue the qualification of the Company in the State of Delaware
and in all jurisdictions in which the Company may conduct business or own property, and any
amendment to, modification to, restatement of or cancellation of any such instrument, document
or certificate, and (b) all conveyances and other instruments, documents and certificates which
may be required to effectuate the dissolution and termination of the Company approved in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The powers of attorney granted herein shall be
deemed to be coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable, and shall survive the death,
disability, incompetency, bankruptcy, insolvency or termination of any Member and the Transfer
of all or any portion of such Member’s Shares, and shall extend to such Member’s heirs,

(b)    Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall
be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law and references to
any law shall include all statutory and regulatory provisions consolidating, amending, replacing,
supplementing or interpreting such law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be
unenforceable or invalid under applicable law in any jurisdiction or with respect to any Member,
such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such unenforceability or invalidity and
shall not affect the enforceability of any other provision in such jurisdiction or the enforcement
of the entirety of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction or with respect to any other Member,

permitted under applicable law to be reasonable and enforceable.

performance by another Person of any obligation, condition or other term of this Agreement in

decision, determination or consent shall be made by such Person(s) in their sole discretion.

exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court within Delaware, with respect to any claim or
cause of action arising under or relating to this Agreement (provided that any order from any
such court may be enforced in any other jurisdiction), and waives personal service of any and all
process upon it, and consents that all services of process be made by registered mail, directed to

THE PARTIES HERETO (INCLUDING EACH MEMBER) IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL
RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING
INSTITUTED BY OR AGAINST SUCH PARTY IN RESPECT OF ITS, HIS OR HER
OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER.

(i)    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts,
each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one
instrument.

(j)    Third Parties. The agreements, covenants and representations contained
herein are for the benefit of the Company and the Members and are not for the benefit of any


62





third parties, including any creditors of the Company, except to the extent that any other Person
is expressly granted any rights under this Agreement.

12.12    Title to Company Assets. Company assets shall be deemed to be owned by the
Company as an entity, and no Member, individually or collectively, shall have any ownership
interest in such Company assets or any portion thereof. Legal title to any or all Company assets
may be held in the name of the Company or one or more nominees, as the Board of Directors
may determine. The Board of Directors hereby declares and warrants that any Company assets
for which legal title is held in the name of any nominee shall be held in trust by such nominee for
the use and benefit of the Company in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. All
Company assets shall be recorded as the property of the Company on its books and records,
irrespective of the name in which legal title to such Company assets is held.

12.13    Creditors. None of the provisions of this Agreement shall be for the benefit of or
enforceable by any non-Member creditors of the Company or any of its Affiliates, and no non-
Member creditor who makes a loan to the Company or any of its Affiliates may have or acquire
(except pursuant to the terms of a separate agreement executed by the Company in favor of such
creditor) at any time as a result of making the loan any direct or indirect interest in Distributions,
capital or property or the rights of the Board of Directors to require Capital Contributions other
than as a secured creditor. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any
Member who is, or whose Affiliates are, a creditor or lender of the Company or its Subsidiaries
(including a trade creditor pursuant to any Commercial Agreement) shall be entitled to exercise
all of its rights as a creditor of lender of the Company or its Subsidiaries, as set forth in the
applicable credit document or other agreement between such Member (or its Affiliates) and the
Company or its Subsidiaries, or otherwise available to such Member (or its Affiliates) in such
capacity. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any such Member (or its Affiliates),
in exercising its rights as a creditor or lender, will have no duty to consider (i) its or its Affiliates’
status as a direct or indirect equity owner of the Company or its Subsidiaries, (ii) the interests of
the Company or its Subsidiaries, or (iii) any duty it or any of its Affiliates may have hereunder or
otherwise to any other Member, except as may be required under the applicable credit or other
documents or by commercial law applicable to creditors generally.

12.14    Remedies. The Company and the Members shall be entitled to enforce their
respective rights under this Agreement specifically, to recover damages by reason of any breach
of any provision of this Agreement (including costs of enforcement) and to exercise any and all
other rights at law or at equity existing in their respective favor. The Company and each
Assignee and Member further agrees and acknowledges that money damages shall not be an
adequate remedy for any breach of the provisions of this Agreement (and thus waive as defense
that there is an adequate remedy at law), and that, accordingly, the Company or any Member
shall, in the event of any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, be entitled (without
posting a bond or other security) to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent or restrain
threatened breaches of, and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to
prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and
obligations under this Agreement. The Company and each Member and Assignee hereby waives
any right to claim that specific performance should not be ordered to prevent or remedy a breach
or threatened breach of this Agreement, and agrees not to raise any objections on the basis that a
remedy at laws would be adequate or on any other basis, (a) to the availability or appropriateness


63





of the equitable remedy of specific performance, or (b) to the rights of the Company and the
Members to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches
or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of this
Agreement. The remedies in this Agreement shall be cumulative and are not exclusive of any
other remedies provided by law.

12.15    Time is of the Essence; Computation of Time. Time is of the essence for each
and every provision of this Agreement. Whenever the last day for the exercise of any privilege
or the discharge or any duty hereunder shall fall upon a day other than a Business Day, the party
having such privilege or duty may exercise such privilege or discharge such duty on the next
succeeding day which is a Business Day.

12.16    Notice to Members of Provisions. By executing this Agreement, each Member
acknowledges that it has actual notice of (i) all of the provisions hereof (including the restrictions
on transfer set forth in Article IX) and (ii) all of the provisions of the Certificate of Formation.

12.17    Further Assurances. In connection with this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby, each Member shall execute and deliver any additional documents and
instruments and perform any additional acts that may be necessary to effectuate and perform the
provisions of this Agreement and those transactions.

12.18    Termination. Upon consummation of an IPO or a Sale of the Company, this
Agreement will be terminated (and replaced, in the case of an IPO, by a suitable replacement
stockholders’ agreement as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors immediately prior
to the IPO) and each of the Members will be fully, finally and forever discharged and released
from any and all agreements, terms, covenants, conditions, representations, warranties and other
obligations arising under this Agreement and all rights and benefits of the Members arising under
this Agreement shall be fully, finally and forever terminated and extinguished; provided, that
Article VII, Article XI and this Article XII (and, solely in the case of a Sale of the Company,
Section 9.08 to the extent any obligations thereunder have not been fully performed) shall
survive and continue to apply in accordance with the their terms.

EXHIBIT II

Call Notice/Optional SoftBank Conversion Notice Fair Market Value of the Company

The Call Notice/Optional SoftBank Conversion Notice Fair Market Value of the Company will
be the total value, in dollars, of the consideration that would be received by the Members in a
sale of one hundred percent (100%) of the Shares (on a Fully Diluted Basis), calculated in
accordance with the process, and consistent with the methodologies, set forth below. The
calculation of Call Notice/Optional SoftBank Conversion Notice Fair Market Value will consist
of two independent valuations, the Standardized FMV and the IP Upsized FMV each calculated,
contemporaneously (using the same Qualified Appraisers), in accordance with the process
below.

Process

(a)    One Qualified Appraiser shall be selected by the GM Investor and the
other Qualified Appraiser shall be selected by the Majority of the Class A-1 Preferred (such
Members, the “Applicable FMV Parties”).

(b)    Each of the Qualified Appraisers so selected by the Applicable FMV
Parties must be engaged by the Applicable FMV Parties within fifteen (15) days of the delivery
of the Call Notice or Optional SoftBank Conversion Notice (as applicable) and the Board of
Directors shall, within one (1) Business Day of delivery of the Call Notice or Optional SoftBank
Conversion Notice (as applicable), notify each of the Applicable FMV Parties of such event.

(c)    Each Qualified Appraiser shall be (i) required to determine the Call
Notice/Optional SoftBank Conversion Notice Fair Market Value within forty-five (45) days after
being notified of its selection, (ii) provided with the same access to the management of the
Company and its Subsidiaries and the same source documents, books and records (including
financial and operating data) and information regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries and
(iii) required to determine a single point estimate of Call Notice/Optional SoftBank Conversion
Notice Fair Market Value and not a range of values.

(d)    Following each Qualified Appraiser’s determination of Call
Notice/Optional SoftBank Conversion Notice Fair Market Value (which determination shall be
provided to each Applicable FMV Party together with a customary valuation report setting forth
in reasonable detail such Qualified Appraiser’s calculation of Call Notice/Optional SoftBank
Conversion Notice Fair Market Value prepared consistently with the methodologies set forth
below), (i) if the lower of the two determinations by the two Qualified Appraisers is within ten
percent (10%) of the higher of the determinations, then the Call Notice/Optional SoftBank
Conversion Notice Fair Market Value shall be the average of the two determinations, and will be
final and binding on the relevant parties or (ii) if the lower of the two determinations is not
within ten percent (10%) of the higher of the determinations, then (A) the Applicable FMV
Parties shall negotiate in good faith for a period of thirty (30) days (or such longer period as to
which the Applicable FMV Parties may mutually agree) to agree upon the Call Notice/Optional
SoftBank Conversion Notice Fair Market Value, any such agreement to be made by each
Applicable FMV Party and to be set forth in writing signed by each of the Applicable FMV



87




Parties (and any such agreement will be final and binding on the relevant parties), and (B) if no
such agreement is reached by the Applicable FMV Parties within such thirty (30)-day time
period, then a third Qualified Appraiser (acting as expert and not arbitrator) that is selected
(within fifteen (15) days following the expiration of the thirty (30)-day time period for good faith
negotiations) by mutual agreement of the original two Qualified Appraisers will determine its
own valuation of the Call Notice/Optional SoftBank Conversion Notice Fair Market Value in
accordance with the methodologies set forth below within forty-five (45) days following its
appointment and the Call Notice/Optional SoftBank Conversion Notice Fair Market Value will
be the average of (1) such third Qualified Appraiser’s determination of the Call Notice/Optional
SoftBank Conversion Notice Fair Market Value and (2) the valuation of the original Qualified
Appraiser that is numerically closest to the third Qualified Appraiser’s valuation.

(e)    The third Qualified Appraiser shall have the same access to the Company,
its Subsidiaries, their employees and officers and the source documents, books and records
(including financial and operating data) and information as the original Qualified Appraisers.

(f)    Each Applicable FMV Party will bear the cost of the Qualified Appraiser
selected by it and one-half of the cost of any third Qualified Appraiser that may be required in
accordance with the preceding sentence (and, if an Applicable FMV Party consists of more than
one Member, then such costs will be shared equally by such Members).

Methodologies

In calculating Call Notice/Optional SoftBank Conversion Notice Fair Market Value, each
Qualified Appraiser will utilize customary valuation methodologies in their respective
professional judgments, subject to such instructions mutually agreed by the Applicable FMV
Parties within ten (10) days following the selection of the initial Qualified Appraisers, which
shall include at a minimum the following:

(a)    The Qualified Appraisers shall take into consideration the Company’s and
its Subsidiaries’ historic financial and operating results, current balance sheet, future business
prospects and projected financial and operating results, public market and industry conditions,
prior financing transactions and the valuation of the Company as of such transaction (if the same
is considered relevant, and requested, by the Qualified Appraisers), the valuation and
performance of comparable companies and such other factors as they may determine relevant to
such determination, in each case as existing as of the date the appraisal process was initiated;

(b)    The future business prospects and projected financial and operating results
of the Company and its Subsidiaries provided to the Qualified Appraisers shall (i) be prepared by
the Company’s management in good faith based on assumptions consistent with those used in the
Company’s ordinary course forecasting, (ii) if the projected financial and operating results of the
Company and its Subsidiaries provided to the Qualified Appraisers cover a period of ten (10)
years or less, and the Qualified Appraisers so request, be extended (in the case of the projected
financial and operating results) for reasonable period exceeding ten (10) years, and (iii) take into
account, consistent with the Company’s ordinary course forecasting and subject to the
restrictions in Article XI (except as otherwise expressly stated in this Exhibit II in connection
with the IP Upsizing), the scope of the intellectual property portfolio of the Company and its


Subsidiaries. SoftBank will have opportunity to review the future business prospects and
projected financial and operating results for a reasonable period of time (not to exceed ten (10)
days) before such projections are submitted to the Qualified Appraisers and to discuss such
projections with the Company.

(c)    The Qualified Appraisers shall value the Company as a going concern,
including taking into consideration the remainder of the term, if any, of the Commercial
Agreements and any agreements that the Commercial Agreements require to be put into place
upon termination or amendment of the Commercial Agreements;

(d)    The Qualified Appraisers shall assume an arms-length sale between a
willing buyer and a willing seller;

(e)    Except as otherwise contemplated by section (a) under “Methodologies,”
the Qualified Appraisers shall disregard any prior appraisals or valuations of the Company or its
Subsidiaries, including any such appraisals or valuations conducted for the purpose of valuing
any rights associated with or tied or indexed to the value of the Shares of the Company or its
Subsidiaries;

(f)    The Qualified Appraisers shall value the Company as at the date of
delivery of the Call Notice or Optional SoftBank Conversion Notice (as applicable); and

(g)    The Qualified Appraisers shall take into account only such tax
depreciation and amortization as would be allowable to the Company in respect of the
Company’s assets immediately prior to such deemed sale.

The Qualified Appraisers shall contemporaneously calculate two valuations: (A) a valuation
based on the Commercial Agreements as in force at the time (the “Standardized FMV”), and
(B) a valuation (the “IP Upsized FMV”) as if the Transferred Assets (as defined in the IPMA)
had been assigned, transferred, conveyed, and delivered to the Company (pursuant to Section 2.2
of the IPMA) immediately prior to the calculation of Call Notice/Optional SoftBank Conversion
Notice Fair Market Value and Section 11.01 does not apply (the “IP Upsizing”). The
Standardized FMV and the IP Upsized FMV shall be identical other than the value attributable to
the IP Upsizing.

For purposes of the definition of Optional SoftBank Conversion Share Price, if the Standardized
FMV is less than the Class A-1 Liquidation Preference Amount, then the Call Notice/Optional
SoftBank Conversion Notice Fair Market Value will equal the IP Upsized FMV; provided, that,
following the application of the IP Upsized FMV, in no event will, with respect to each Class A-
1-A Preferred Share and Class A-1-B Preferred Share, the Optional SoftBank Conversion Share
Price be greater than the applicable Class A-1 Liquidation Preference Amount.
