BORGWARNER INC. AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

(1)      Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of BorgWarner Inc. and Consolidated Subsidiaries (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flow activity required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of results have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2014 was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date. For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and Footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and accompanying notes, as well as, the amounts of revenues and expenses reported during the periods covered by those financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

(2) Research and Development Expenditures

The Company's net Research & Development ("R&D") expenditures are included in selling, general and administrative expenses of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Customer reimbursements are netted against gross R&D expenditures as they are considered a recovery of cost. Customer reimbursements for prototypes are recorded net of prototype costs based on customer contracts, typically either when the prototype is shipped or when it is accepted by the customer. Customer reimbursements for engineering services are recorded when performance obligations are satisfied in accordance with the contract and accepted by the customer. Financial risks and rewards transfer upon shipment, acceptance of a prototype component by the customer or upon completion of the performance obligation as stated in the respective customer agreement.

The following table presents the Company’s gross and net expenditures on R&D activities:

During the first quarters of 2015 and 2014, the Company recorded restructuring expense of $12.1 million and $39.5 million, respectively, primarily related to Drivetrain segment actions designed to improve future profitability and competitiveness. See the Restructuring footnote to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of these expenses.

During the first quarter of 2015, the Company completed the purchase of the remaining 51% of BERU Diesel Start Systems Pvt. Ltd. ("BERU Diesel") by acquiring the shares of its former joint venture partner. As a result of this transaction, the Company recorded a $10.8 million gain on the previously held equity interest in this joint venture. See the Recent Transactions footnote to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of this acquisition.

(4) Income Taxes

The Company's provision for income taxes is based upon an estimated annual tax rate for the year applied to federal, state and foreign income. On a quarterly basis, the annual effective tax rate is adjusted, as appropriate, based upon changed facts and circumstances, if any, as compared to those forecasted at the beginning of the fiscal year and each interim period thereafter.

At March 31, 2015, the Company's effective tax rate for the first quarter was 27.8%. This rate includes tax benefits of $2.4 million primarily related to foreign tax incentives and $1.2 million related to restructuring expense as discussed in the Other Expense, net footnote to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

At March 31, 2014, the Company's effective tax rate for the first quarter was 28.9%, which included tax benefits of $8.8 million related to restructuring expense discussed in the Other Expense, net footnote to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

The annual effective tax rates differ from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to foreign rates which differ from those in the U.S., the realization of certain business tax credits, including foreign tax credits, and favorable permanent differences between book and tax treatment for certain items, including equity in affiliates' earnings.

(5) Inventories, net

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. The cost of U.S. inventories is determined by the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method, while the operations outside the U.S. use the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) or average-cost methods. Inventories consisted of the following:

Interest costs capitalized for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 were $3.8 million and $3.5 million, respectively.

(7) Product Warranty

The Company provides warranties on some, but not all, of its products. The warranty terms are typically from one to three years. Provisions for estimated expenses related to product warranty are made at the time products are sold. These estimates are established using historical information about the nature, frequency and average cost of warranty claim settlements as well as product manufacturing and industry developments and recoveries from third parties. Management actively studies trends of warranty claims and takes action to improve product quality and minimize warranty claims. Management believes that the warranty accrual is appropriate; however, actual claims incurred could differ from the original estimates, requiring adjustments to the accrual.

On March 16, 2015, BorgWarner Inc. issued $500 million in 3.375% senior notes due March 2025 and $500 million in 4.375% senior notes due March 2045. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning on September 15, 2015.

The Company has a $1 billion multi-currency revolving credit facility which includes a feature that allows the Company's borrowings to be increased to $1.25 billion. The facility provides for borrowings through June 30, 2019. The Company has one key financial covenant as part of the credit agreement which is a debt to EBITDA ("Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization") ratio. The Company was in compliance with the financial covenant at March 31, 2015 and expects to remain compliant in future periods. At March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under this facility.

The Company's commercial paper program allows the Company to issue short-term, unsecured commercial paper notes up to a maximum aggregate principal amount outstanding of $1 billion. Under this program, the Company may issue notes from time to time and will use the proceeds for general corporate purposes. The Company had no borrowings outstanding under this program at March 31, 2015. At December 31, 2014, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $460.9 million under this program, which is classified in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in Notes payable and other short-term debt.

The total current combined borrowing capacity under the multi-currency revolving credit facility and commercial paper program cannot exceed $1 billion.

As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the estimated fair values of the Company’s senior unsecured notes totaled $1,796.6 million and $750.3 million, respectively. The estimated fair values were $147.5 million and $98.7 million higher than their carrying value at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Fair market values of the senior unsecured notes are developed using either observable inputs for identical debt instruments in active markets or observable values for similar debt instruments, which are considered Level 1 and Level 2 inputs, respectively, as defined by ASC Topic 820. The carrying values of the Company's multi-currency revolving credit facility and commercial paper program approximates fair value. The fair value estimates do not necessarily reflect the values the Company could realize in the current markets.

The Company had outstanding letters of credit of $27.1 million and $28.3 million at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The letters of credit typically act as guarantees of payment to certain third parties in accordance with specified terms and conditions.

(9) Fair Value Measurements

ASC Topic 820 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity specific measurement. Therefore, a fair value measurement should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair values as follows:

Level 1:
Observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are based on one or more of the following three valuation techniques noted in ASC Topic 820:

A.
Market approach: Prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets, liabilities or a group of assets or liabilities, such as a business.
B.
Cost approach: Amount that would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost).
C.
Income approach: Techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount based upon market expectations (including present value techniques, option-pricing and excess earnings models).

The following tables classify assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014:

(10) Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments include cash and marketable securities. Due to the short-term nature of these instruments, their book value approximates their fair value. The Company’s financial instruments may include long-term debt, interest rate and cross-currency swaps, commodity derivative contracts and foreign currency derivatives. All derivative contracts are placed with counterparties that have an S&P, or equivalent, investment grade credit rating at the time of the contracts’ placement. At March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had no derivative contracts that contained credit risk related contingent features.

The Company uses certain commodity derivative contracts to protect against commodity price changes related to forecasted raw material and supplies purchases. The Company primarily utilizes forward and option contracts, which are designated as cash flow hedges. The Company did not have any commodity derivative contracts outstanding at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

The Company uses foreign currency forward and option contracts to protect against exchange rate movements for forecasted cash flows, including capital expenditures, purchases, operating expenses or sales transactions designated in currencies other than the functional currency of the operating unit. Foreign currency derivative contracts require the Company, at a future date, to either buy or sell foreign currency in exchange for the operating units’ local currency.

At March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the following foreign currency derivative contracts were outstanding:

Effectiveness for cash flow and net investment hedges is assessed at the inception of the hedging relationship and quarterly, thereafter. To the extent that derivative instruments are deemed to be effective, gains and losses arising from these contracts are deferred into accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) ("AOCI") and reclassified into income as the underlying operating transactions are recognized. These realized gains or losses offset the hedged transaction and are recorded on the same line in the statement of operations. To the extent that derivative instruments are deemed to be ineffective, gains or losses are recognized into income.

(12) Stock-Based Compensation

Under the Company's 2004 Stock Incentive Plan ("2004 Plan"), the Company granted options to purchase shares of the Company's common stock at the fair market value on the date of grant. The options vested over periods of up to three years and have a term of 10 years from date of grant. At its November 2007 meeting, the Company's Compensation Committee decided that restricted common stock awards and stock units ("restricted stock") would be awarded in place of stock options for long-term incentive award grants to employees. Restricted stock granted to employees primarily vests 50% after two years and the remainder after three years from the date of grant. Restricted stock granted to non-employee directors generally vests on the first anniversary date of the grant. In February 2014, the Company's Board of Directors replaced the expired 2004 Plan by adopting the BorgWarner Inc. 2014 Stock Incentive Plan ("2014 Plan"). On April 30, 2014, the Company's stockholders approved the 2014 Plan. Under the 2014 Plan, 8 million shares are authorized for grant, of which approximately 7.2 million shares are available for future issuance as of March 31, 2015.

Restricted stock The value of restricted stock is determined by the market value of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant. In 2015, restricted stock in the amount of 563,074 shares was granted to employees. The value of the awards is recorded as unearned compensation within capital in excess of par value in equity and is amortized as compensation expense over the restriction periods.

The Company recorded restricted stock compensation expense of $7.3 million and $4.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

(14)  Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company is party to various commercial and legal claims, actions and complaints, including matters involving warranty claims, intellectual property claims, general liability and various other risks. It is not possible to predict with certainty whether or not the Company will ultimately be successful in any of these commercial and legal matters or, if not, what the impact might be. The Company's environmental and product liability contingencies are discussed separately below. The Company's management does not expect that an adverse outcome in any of these commercial and legal claims, actions and complaints will have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flows, although it could be material to the results of operations in a particular quarter.

Litigation

In January 2006, BorgWarner Diversified Transmission Products Inc. ("DTP"), a subsidiary of the Company, filed a declaratory judgment action in United States District Court, Southern District of Indiana (Indianapolis Division) against the United Automobile, Aerospace, and Agricultural Implements Workers of America (“UAW”) Local No. 287 and Gerald Poor, individually and as the representative of a defendant class. DTP sought the Court's affirmation that DTP did not violate the Labor-Management Relations Act or the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) by unilaterally amending certain medical plans effective April 1, 2006 and October 1, 2006, prior to the expiration of the then-current collective bargaining agreements. On September 10, 2008, the Court found that DTP's reservation of the right to make such amendments reducing the level of benefits provided to retirees was limited by its collectively bargained

16

Table of Contents                                


health insurance agreement with the UAW, which did not expire until April 24, 2009. Thus, the amendments were untimely. In 2008, the Company recorded a charge of $4.0 million as a result of the Court's decision.

DTP filed a declaratory judgment action in the United States District Court, Southern District of Indiana (Indianapolis Division) against the UAW Local No. 287 and Jim Barrett and others, individually and as representatives of a defendant class, on February 26, 2009 again seeking the Court's affirmation that DTP did not violate the Labor - Management Relations Act or ERISA by modifying the level of benefits provided retirees to make them comparable to other Company retiree benefit plans after April 24, 2009. Certain retirees, on behalf of themselves and others, filed a mirror-image action in the United States District Court, Eastern District of Michigan (Southern Division) on March 11, 2009, for which a class has been certified. During the last quarter of 2009, the action pending in Indiana was dismissed, while the action in Michigan is continuing. The Company is vigorously defending against the suit.  This contingency is subject to many uncertainties, therefore based on the information available to date, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the amount or the range of potential loss, if any.

Environmental

The Company and certain of its current and former direct and indirect corporate predecessors, subsidiaries and divisions have been identified by the United States Environmental Protection Agency and certain state environmental agencies and private parties as potentially responsible parties (“PRPs”) at various hazardous waste disposal sites under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“Superfund”) and equivalent state laws and, as such, may presently be liable for the cost of clean-up and other remedial activities at 27 such sites. Responsibility for clean-up and other remedial activities at a Superfund site is typically shared among PRPs based on an allocation formula.

The Company believes that none of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Generally, this is because either the estimates of the maximum potential liability at a site are not material or the liability will be shared with other PRPs, although no assurance can be given with respect to the ultimate outcome of any such matter.

Based on information available to the Company (which in most cases includes: an estimate of allocation of liability among PRPs; the probability that other PRPs, many of whom are large, solvent public companies, will fully pay the cost apportioned to them; currently available information from PRPs and/or federal or state environmental agencies concerning the scope of contamination and estimated remediation and consulting costs; and remediation alternatives), the Company has an accrual for indicated environmental liabilities of $5.6 million and $6.2 million at March 31, 2015 and at December 31, 2014, respectively. The Company expects to pay out substantially all of the amounts accrued for environmental liability over the next five years.

In connection with the sale of Kuhlman Electric Corporation (“Kuhlman Electric”), the Company agreed to indemnify the buyer and Kuhlman Electric for certain environmental liabilities, then unknown to the Company, relating to certain operations of Kuhlman Electric that pre-date the Company's 1999 acquisition of Kuhlman Electric. The Company previously settled or obtained dismissals of various lawsuits that were filed against Kuhlman Electric and others, including the Company, on behalf of plaintiffs alleging personal injury relating to alleged environmental contamination at its Crystal Springs, Mississippi plant. The Company filed a lawsuit against Kuhlman Electric and a related entity challenging the validity of the indemnity and the defendants filed counterclaims and a related lawsuit. In addition, two lawsuits by plaintiffs alleging environmental contamination relating to Kuhlman Electric's Crystal Springs plant are still pending and the Company may in the future become subject to further legal proceedings.

Product Liability

Like many other industrial companies who have historically operated in the U.S., the Company (or parties the Company is obligated to indemnify) continues to be named as one of many defendants in asbestos-

17

Table of Contents                                


related personal injury actions. We believe that the Company's involvement is limited because, in general, these claims relate to a few types of automotive products that were manufactured many years ago and contained encapsulated asbestos. The nature of the fibers, the encapsulation and the manner of use lead the Company to believe that these products are highly unlikely to cause harm. As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had approximately 12,500 and 13,300 pending asbestos-related product liability claims, respectively. The decrease in the pending claims is a result of the Company's continued efforts to obtain dismissal of dormant claims.

The Company's policy is to vigorously defend against these lawsuits and the Company has been successful in obtaining dismissal of many claims without any payment. The Company expects that the vast majority of the pending asbestos-related product liability claims where it is a defendant (or has an obligation to indemnify a defendant) will result in no payment being made by the Company or its insurers. In 2015, of the approximately 1,300 claims resolved, 111 (9%) resulted in payment being made to a claimant by or on behalf of the Company. In the full year of 2014, of the approximately 6,500 claims resolved, 397 (6%) resulted in payment being made to a claimant by or on behalf of the Company.

Prior to June 2004, the settlement and defense costs associated with all claims were paid by the Company's primary layer insurance carriers under a series of funding arrangements. In addition to the primary insurance available for asbestos-related claims, the Company has excess insurance coverage available for potential future asbestos-related product claims. In June 2004, primary layer insurance carriers notified the Company of the alleged exhaustion of their policy limits.

A declaratory judgment action was filed in January 2004 in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois by Continental Casualty Company and related companies against the Company and certain of its historical general liability insurers. The court has issued a number of interim rulings and discovery is continuing. The Company has entered into settlement agreements with some of its insurance carriers, resolving their coverage disputes by agreeing to pay specified amounts to the Company. The Company is vigorously pursuing the litigation against the remaining insurers.

In August 2013, the Los Angeles Superior Court entered a jury verdict against the Company in an asbestos-related personal injury action with damages of $35.0 million, $32.5 million of which was non-compensatory and will not be recoverable through insurance if the verdict is upheld. The Company has appealed this verdict. The Company posted a surety bond of $55.0 million related to the appeal. The Company cannot predict the outcome of this pending litigation and therefore cannot reasonably estimate the amount of possible loss, if any, that could result from this action.
The Company's estimate of asbestos-related liabilities is subject to uncertainty because liabilities are influenced by numerous variables that are inherently difficult to predict. Key variables include the number and type of new claims, the litigation process from jurisdiction to jurisdiction and from case to case, reforms that may be made by state and federal courts and the passage of state or federal tort reform legislation. The nature of the historical product being encapsulated and the lifecycle of the product allow the Company to aggressively defend against these lawsuits and, at present, management does not believe that asbestos-related product liability claims are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

To date, the Company has paid and accrued $353.1 million in defense and indemnity in advance of insurers' reimbursement and has received $195.9 million in cash and notes from insurers. The net balance of $157.2 million, is expected to be fully recovered. Timing of recovery is dependent on final resolution of the declaratory judgment action referred to above or additional negotiated settlements. At December 31, 2014, insurers owed $141.9 million in association with these claims.

In addition to the $157.2 million net balance relating to past settlements and defense costs, the Company has estimated a liability of $113.2 million for claims asserted, but not yet resolved and their related defense

18

Table of Contents                                


costs at March 31, 2015. The Company also has a related asset of $113.2 million to recognize proceeds from the insurance carriers, which is expected to be fully recovered. Receipt of these proceeds is not expected prior to the resolution of the declaratory judgment action referred to above, which is expected to occur subsequent to March 31, 2016. At December 31, 2014, the comparable value of the accrued liability and associated insurance asset was $111.8 million.

The Company does not believe that it can, at present, reasonably estimate possible losses in excess of those for which it has accrued. The Company's belief is based on a number of factors, including without limitation, because the Company cannot reasonably predict how many additional claims may be brought against the Company (or parties the Company has an obligation to indemnify) in the future, the particular illnesses or medical conditions that may be alleged in such claims, the allegations in such claims and the evidence submitted by claimants in support thereof, the possible outcomes in settling or litigating such claims, the time in which claims will proceed through courts in which they are asserted, or the impact of tort reform legislation that may be enacted at the state or federal levels. The Company reviews factors relevant to the asbestos claims that have been or may in the future be asserted against it on an ongoing basis.

(15) Restructuring

In the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company initiated actions primarily in the Drivetrain segment designed to improve future profitability and competitiveness. As a continuation of these actions, in 2014, the Company finalized severance agreements with two labor unions at separate facilities in Western Europe for approximately 350 employees. The Company recorded $7.3 million and $35.4 million of restructuring expense related to these facilities in the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Included in this restructuring expense are employee termination benefits of $6.4 million and $32.1 million, respectively, and other expense of $0.9 million and $3.3 million, respectively.

The Company expects additional restructuring expenses to be incurred over the next year related to the Drivetrain segment, including approximately $6 million of employee termination benefits associated with the severance agreements discussed above as well as other employee related actions. These expenses will be recognized as employees render service in accordance with terms of the agreements. Future cash payments for these restructuring activities are expected to be complete by the end of 2015.

Estimates of restructuring expense are based on information available at the time such charges are recorded. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in estimating restructuring expenses, actual amounts paid for such activities may differ from amounts initially recorded. Accordingly, the Company may record revisions of previous estimates by adjusting previously established accruals.

(16) Earnings Per Share

The Company presents both basic and diluted earnings per share of common stock (“EPS”) amounts. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net earnings attributable to BorgWarner Inc. by the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing net earnings attributable to BorgWarner Inc. by the weighted average shares of common stock and common equivalent stock outstanding during the reporting period.

The dilutive impact of stock-based compensation is calculated using the treasury stock method. The treasury stock method assumes that the Company uses the assumed proceeds from the exercise of awards to repurchase common stock at the average market price during the period. The assumed proceeds under the treasury stock method include the purchase price that the grantee will pay in the future, compensation cost for future service that the Company has not yet recognized and any windfall/(shortfall) tax benefits that would be credited/(debited) to capital in excess of par value when the award generates a tax deduction. Options are only dilutive when the average market price of the underlying common stock exceeds the exercise price of the options.

(17) Reporting Segments

The Company's business is comprised of two reporting segments: Engine and Drivetrain. These segments are strategic business groups, which are managed separately as each represents a specific grouping of related automotive components and systems.

The Company allocates resources to each segment based upon the projected after-tax return on invested capital ("ROIC") of its business initiatives. ROIC is comprised of Adjusted EBIT after deducting notional taxes compared to the projected average capital investment required. Adjusted EBIT is comprised of earnings before interest, income taxes and noncontrolling interest (“EBIT") adjusted for restructuring, goodwill impairment charges, affiliates' earnings and other items not reflective of on-going operating income or loss.

Adjusted EBIT is the measure of segment income or loss used by the Company. The Company believes Adjusted EBIT is most reflective of the operational profitability or loss of our reporting segments. The following tables show segment information and Adjusted EBIT for the Company's reporting segments.

(18) Recent Transactions

BERU Diesel Start Systems Pvt. Ltd.
    
In January 2015, the Company completed the purchase of the remaining 51% of BERU Diesel by acquiring the shares of its former joint venture partner. The former joint venture was formed in 1996 to develop and manufacture glow plugs in India. After this transaction, the Company owns 100% of the entity. The cash paid, net of cash acquired, was $12.6 million (783.1 million Indian rupees).

The operating results are reported within the Company's Engine reporting segment. The Company paid $12.6 million, which is recorded as an investing activity in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. As a result of this transaction, the Company recorded a $10.8 million gain on the previously held equity interest in this joint venture. Additionally, the Company acquired assets of $16.0 million, including $11.2 million in definite-lived intangible assets, and assumed liabilities of $4.6 million. The Company also recorded $13.9 million of goodwill, which is expected to be non-deductible for tax purposes.

The Company is in the process of finalizing purchase accounting adjustments related to the BERU Diesel acquisition. Subsequent fair value adjustments may be necessary based on the finalization of certain estimates.

Gustav Wahler GmbH u. Co KG

On February 28, 2014, the Company acquired 100% of the equity interests in Gustav Wahler GmbH u. Co. KG and its general partner ("Wahler"). Wahler was a producer of exhaust gas recirculation ("EGR") valves, EGR tubes and thermostats, and had operations in Germany, Brazil, the U.S., China and Slovakia. The cash paid, net of cash acquired was $110.5 million (80.1 million Euro).

The operating results and assets are reported within the Company's Engine reporting segment as of the date of the acquisition. The Company paid $110.5 million, which is recorded as an investing activity in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. Additionally, the Company assumed retirement-related liabilities of $3.2 million and assumed debt of $40.3 million, which are reflected in the supplemental cash flow information on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

These intangible assets will be amortized over a period of 5 to 15 years. The income approach was used to determine the fair value of all intangible assets. Additionally, $56.9 million in goodwill is expected to be non-deductible for tax purposes.

(19) New Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-03, "Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs," which changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements. Under this guidance such costs would be presented as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its Consolidated Balance Sheet, but expects that as of March 31, 2015 this guidance would result in the reduction of assets and liabilities by approximately $17 million.

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board amended the Accounting Standards Codification to add Topic 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers," outlining a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and superseding most current revenue recognition guidance. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

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

BorgWarner Inc. and Consolidated Subsidiaries (the “Company”) is a leading global supplier of highly engineered automotive systems and components primarily for powertrain applications. Our products help improve vehicle performance, fuel efficiency, stability and air quality. These products are manufactured and sold worldwide, primarily to original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) of light vehicles (passenger cars, sport-utility vehicles ("SUVs"), vans and light trucks). The Company's products are also sold to other OEMs of commercial vehicles (medium-duty trucks, heavy-duty trucks and buses) and off-highway vehicles (agricultural and construction machinery and marine applications). We also manufacture and sell our products to certain Tier One vehicle systems suppliers and into the aftermarket for light, commercial and off-highway vehicles. The Company operates manufacturing facilities serving customers in the Americas, Europe and Asia and is an original equipment supplier to every major automotive OEM in the world.

The Company's products fall into two reporting segments: Engine and Drivetrain. The Engine segment's products include turbochargers, timing devices and chains, emissions systems and thermal systems. The Drivetrain segment's products include transmission components and systems and all-wheel drive torque management systems.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended March 31, 2015 vs. Three Months Ended March 31, 2014

Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2015 totaled $1,984.2 million, a 4.8% decrease from the three months ended March 31, 2014. Excluding the impact of weakening foreign currencies, primarily the Euro, the 2014 acquisition of Gustav Wahler GmbH u. Co. KG and its general partner ("Wahler") and the 2015 acquisition of BERU Diesel Start Systems Pvt. Ltd. ("BERU Diesel"), net sales increased approximately 3%.

Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales decreased to 78.4% in the three months ended March 31, 2015 from 78.6% in the three months ended March 31, 2014. Gross profit and gross margin were $429.0 million and 21.6% in the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to $445.8 million and 21.4% in the three months ended March 31, 2014. The Company's material cost of sales was 50% to 55% of net sales in both the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014.

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2015 decreased $5.6 million to $168.2 million from $173.8 million. SG&A as a percentage of net sales was 8.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2015, up slightly from 8.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2014. Research and development ("R&D") expenses, which are included in SG&A expenses, decreased $6.6 million to $75.4 million from $82.0 million as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014. As a percentage of net sales, R&D expenses were 3.8% and 3.9% in the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Our continued investment in a number of cross-business R&D programs, as well as other key programs, is necessary for the Company’s short- and long-term growth.

Other expense, net of $1.2 million and $38.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, relates to $12.1 million and $39.5 million of restructuring expense associated with both the Drivetrain and Engine segments. The Drivetrain segment charges mostly represent a continuation of expenses associated with the first quarter 2014 finalization of severance agreements with two labor unions at separate facilities in Western Europe for approximately 350 employees. The Engine segment charges mainly relate to the restructuring of the Wahler acquisition. Both the Drivetrain and Engine restructuring actions are designed to improve the future profitability and competitiveness of each segment. The Company estimates that additional restructuring expense of approximately $21 million will be incurred over the next year related to the Drivetrain segment. Additionally, approximately $16 million will be incurred over the next

two years related to the Engine segment restructuring. Furthermore, the Company recorded $2.7 million and $1.1 million of restructuring expense for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, related to a global realignment plan intended to enhance treasury management flexibility by creating a legal entity structure that better aligns with the Company's business strategy. The Company also recorded a $10.8 million gain on the previously held equity interest in BERU Diesel as a result of the first quarter 2015 acquisition.

Equity in affiliates’ earnings of $8.5 million decreased $0.3 million as compared with the three months ended March 31, 2014 primarily due to lower earnings from the Company's 50% interest in NSK-Warner.

At March 31, 2015, the Company's effective tax rate for the first quarter was 27.8%. This rate includes tax benefits of $2.4 million primarily related to foreign tax incentives and $1.2 million related to restructuring expense as discussed in the Other Expense, net footnote to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Excluding the impact of these non-comparable items, the Company has estimated its annual effective tax rate associated with ongoing operations to be approximately 29% for the year ending December 31, 2015.

At March 31, 2014, the Company's effective tax rate for the first quarter was 28.9%, which included tax benefits of $8.8 million related to restructuring expense discussed in the Other Expense, net footnote to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Excluding the impact of this non-comparable item, the Company had estimated its annual effective tax rate associated with ongoing operations to be approximately 28% for the year ending December 31, 2014.

The Company’s earnings per diluted share were $0.79 and $0.69 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The Company believes the following table is useful in highlighting non-comparable items that impacted its earnings per diluted share.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2015 vs. Three Months Ended March 31, 2014

The Engine segment net sales decreased $31.2 million, or 2.2%, from the three months ended March 31, 2014. Excluding the impact of weakening foreign currencies, primarily the Euro, the 2014 Wahler acquisition and the 2015 BERU Diesel acquisition, net sales increased approximately 6% from the three months ended March 31, 2014, primarily due to higher sales of turbochargers. The Engine segment Adjusted EBIT margin was 16.7% in the three months ended March 31, 2015 up from 16.4% in the three months ended March 31, 2014.

The Drivetrain segment net sales decreased $69.5 million, or 10.2%, from the three months ended March 31, 2014. Excluding the impact of weakening foreign currencies, primarily the Euro, net sales decreased approximately 2% from the three months ended March 31, 2014, primarily due to lower sales of all-wheel drive systems. The Drivetrain segment Adjusted EBIT margin was 11.6% in the three months ended March 31, 2015 down from 11.8% in the three months ended March 31, 2014.

Outlook for 2015

Our overall outlook for 2015 is positive. The Company expects strong net new business-related sales growth in 2015 due to rapid adoption of BorgWarner products around the world, partially offset by a stronger U.S. dollar, which would reduce the U.S. dollar value of its foreign currency-denominated sales.

The Company maintains a positive long-term outlook for its global business and is committed to new product development and strategic capital investments to enhance its product leadership strategy. The trends that are driving our long-term growth are expected to continue, including the growth of direct injection

gasoline engines worldwide, the increased adoption of automated transmissions in Europe and Asia-Pacific, and the move to variable cam and chain engine timing systems in Europe and Asia-Pacific.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY

The Company maintains various liquidity sources including cash and cash equivalents and the unused portion of our multi-currency revolving credit agreement. At March 31, 2015, the Company had $1,035.5 million of cash, of which $612.3 million of cash is held by our subsidiaries outside of the United States. Cash held by these subsidiaries is used to fund foreign operational activities and future investments, including acquisitions. The vast majority of cash held outside the United States is available for repatriation, however, doing so could result in increased foreign and U.S. federal, state and local income taxes. A deferred tax liability has been recorded for the portion of these funds anticipated to be repatriated to the United States. The Company uses its U.S. liquidity for various corporate purposes, including but not limited to, debt service, share repurchases, dividend distributions and other corporate expenses.

On March 16, 2015, BorgWarner Inc. issued $500 million in 3.375% senior notes due March 2025 and $500 million in 4.375% senior notes due March 2045. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning on September 15, 2015. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes, including, but not limited to, repurchasing shares of the Company's common stock pursuant to our previously announced $1 billion share repurchase program and repaying U.S. short-term debt. These senior notes are not guaranteed by any of BorgWarner Inc.'s subsidiaries.

The Company has a $1 billion multi-currency revolving credit facility which includes a feature that allows the Company's borrowings to be increased to $1.25 billion. The facility provides for borrowings through June 30, 2019. The Company has one key financial covenant as part of the credit agreement which is a debt to EBITDA ("Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization") ratio. The Company was in compliance with the financial covenant at March 31, 2015 and expects to remain compliant in future periods. At March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under this facility.

The Company's commercial paper program allows the Company to issue short-term, unsecured commercial paper notes up to a maximum aggregate principal amount outstanding of $1 billion. Under this program, the Company may issue notes from time to time and will use the proceeds for general corporate purposes. The Company had no borrowings outstanding under this program at March 31, 2015. At December 31, 2014, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $460.9 million under this program, which is classified in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in Notes payable and other short-term debt.

The total current combined borrowing capacity under the multi-currency revolving credit facility and commercial paper program cannot exceed $1 billion.

In addition to the credit facility, the Company's universal shelf registration has an unlimited amount of various debt and equity instruments that could be issued.

On February 11, 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.13 per share of common stock. This dividend was paid in the three months ended March 31, 2015.

The Company's net debt to net capital ratio was 18.4% at March 31, 2015 versus 12.8% at December 31, 2014.

From a credit quality perspective, the Company has a credit rating of Baa1 from Moody's and BBB+ from both Standard & Poor’s and Fitch Ratings. On March 5, 2015, Moody's upgraded the Company's credit rating from Baa2 to Baa1. The current outlook from Moody's, Standard & Poor’s and Fitch Ratings is stable.

None of the Company’s debt agreements require accelerated repayment in the event of a downgrade in credit ratings.

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $13.7 million to $32.7 million in the first three months of 2015 from $46.4 million in the first three months of 2014. The $13.7 million decrease primarily reflects lower net earnings adjusted for non-cash charges to operations.

Net cash used in investing activities decreased $79.3 million to $151.8 million in the first three months of 2015 from $231.1 million in the first three months of 2014. This decrease is primarily due to the 2014 $106.4 million acquisition of Wahler, partially offset by the 2015 acquisition of BERU Diesel.

Net cash provided by financing activities increased $360.8 million to $416.8 million in the first three months of 2015 from $56.0 million in the first three months of 2014. This increase is primarily driven by the $1 billion issuance of senior notes in March 2015, partially offset by the decrease in notes payable.

We believe that the combination of cash from operations, cash balances, available credit facilities, and the universal shelf registration capacity will be sufficient to satisfy our cash needs for our current level of operations, our planned operations for the foreseeable future and our $1 billion share repurchase program. We will continue to balance our needs for internal growth, external growth, the return of capital to stockholders, debt reduction and cash conservation.

CONTINGENCIES

In the normal course of business, the Company is party to various commercial and legal claims, actions and complaints, including matters involving warranty claims, intellectual property claims, general liability and various other risks. It is not possible to predict with certainty whether or not the Company will ultimately be successful in any of these commercial and legal matters or, if not, what the impact might be. The Company's environmental and product liability contingencies are discussed separately below. The Company's management does not expect that an adverse outcome in any of these commercial and legal claims, actions and complaints will have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flows, although it could be material to the results of operations in a particular quarter.

Litigation

In January 2006, BorgWarner Diversified Transmission Products Inc. ("DTP"), a subsidiary of the Company, filed a declaratory judgment action in United States District Court, Southern District of Indiana (Indianapolis Division) against the United Automobile, Aerospace, and Agricultural Implements Workers of America (“UAW”) Local No. 287 and Gerald Poor, individually and as the representative of a defendant class. DTP sought the Court's affirmation that DTP did not violate the Labor-Management Relations Act or the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) by unilaterally amending certain medical plans effective April 1, 2006 and October 1, 2006, prior to the expiration of the then-current collective bargaining agreements. On September 10, 2008, the Court found that DTP's reservation of the right to make such amendments reducing the level of benefits provided to retirees was limited by its collectively bargained health insurance agreement with the UAW, which did not expire until April 24, 2009. Thus, the amendments were untimely. In 2008, the Company recorded a charge of $4.0 million as a result of the Court's decision.

DTP filed a declaratory judgment action in the United States District Court, Southern District of Indiana (Indianapolis Division) against the UAW Local No. 287 and Jim Barrett and others, individually and as representatives of a defendant class, on February 26, 2009 again seeking the Court's affirmation that DTP did not violate the Labor - Management Relations Act or ERISA by modifying the level of benefits provided retirees to make them comparable to other Company retiree benefit plans after April 24, 2009. Certain retirees, on behalf of themselves and others, filed a mirror-image action in the United States District Court,

Eastern District of Michigan (Southern Division) on March 11, 2009, for which a class has been certified. During the last quarter of 2009, the action pending in Indiana was dismissed, while the action in Michigan is continuing. The Company is vigorously defending against the suit.  This contingency is subject to many uncertainties, therefore based on the information available to date, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the amount or the range of potential loss, if any.

Environmental

The Company and certain of its current and former direct and indirect corporate predecessors, subsidiaries and divisions have been identified by the United States Environmental Protection Agency and certain state environmental agencies and private parties as potentially responsible parties (“PRPs”) at various hazardous waste disposal sites under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“Superfund”) and equivalent state laws and, as such, may presently be liable for the cost of clean-up and other remedial activities at 27 such sites. Responsibility for clean-up and other remedial activities at a Superfund site is typically shared among PRPs based on an allocation formula.

The Company believes that none of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Generally, this is because either the estimates of the maximum potential liability at a site are not material or the liability will be shared with other PRPs, although no assurance can be given with respect to the ultimate outcome of any such matter.

Based on information available to the Company (which in most cases includes: an estimate of allocation of liability among PRPs; the probability that other PRPs, many of whom are large, solvent public companies, will fully pay the cost apportioned to them; currently available information from PRPs and/or federal or state environmental agencies concerning the scope of contamination and estimated remediation and consulting costs; and remediation alternatives), the Company has an accrual for indicated environmental liabilities of $5.6 million and $6.2 million at March 31, 2015 and at December 31, 2014, respectively. The Company expects to pay out substantially all of the amounts accrued for environmental liability over the next five years.

In connection with the sale of Kuhlman Electric Corporation (“Kuhlman Electric”), the Company agreed to indemnify the buyer and Kuhlman Electric for certain environmental liabilities, then unknown to the Company, relating to certain operations of Kuhlman Electric that pre-date the Company's 1999 acquisition of Kuhlman Electric. The Company previously settled or obtained dismissals of various lawsuits that were filed against Kuhlman Electric and others, including the Company, on behalf of plaintiffs alleging personal injury relating to alleged environmental contamination at its Crystal Springs, Mississippi plant. The Company filed a lawsuit against Kuhlman Electric and a related entity challenging the validity of the indemnity and the defendants filed counterclaims and a related lawsuit. In addition, two lawsuits by plaintiffs alleging environmental contamination relating to Kuhlman Electric's Crystal Springs plant are still pending and the Company may in the future become subject to further legal proceedings.

Product Liability

Like many other industrial companies who have historically operated in the U.S., the Company (or parties the Company is obligated to indemnify) continues to be named as one of many defendants in asbestos-related personal injury actions. We believe that the Company's involvement is limited because, in general, these claims relate to a few types of automotive products that were manufactured many years ago and contained encapsulated asbestos. The nature of the fibers, the encapsulation and the manner of use lead the Company to believe that these products are highly unlikely to cause harm. As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had approximately 12,500 and 13,300 pending asbestos-related product liability claims, respectively. The decrease in the pending claims is a result of the Company's continued efforts to obtain dismissal of dormant claims.


29

Table of Contents                                


The Company's policy is to vigorously defend against these lawsuits and the Company has been successful in obtaining dismissal of many claims without any payment. The Company expects that the vast majority of the pending asbestos-related product liability claims where it is a defendant (or has an obligation to indemnify a defendant) will result in no payment being made by the Company or its insurers. In 2015, of the approximately 1,300 claims resolved, 111 (9%) resulted in payment being made to a claimant by or on behalf of the Company. In the full year of 2014, of the approximately 6,500 claims resolved, 397 (6%) resulted in payment being made to a claimant by or on behalf of the Company.

Prior to June 2004, the settlement and defense costs associated with all claims were paid by the Company's primary layer insurance carriers under a series of funding arrangements. In addition to the primary insurance available for asbestos-related claims, the Company has excess insurance coverage available for potential future asbestos-related product claims. In June 2004, primary layer insurance carriers notified the Company of the alleged exhaustion of their policy limits.

A declaratory judgment action was filed in January 2004 in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois by Continental Casualty Company and related companies against the Company and certain of its historical general liability insurers. The court has issued a number of interim rulings and discovery is continuing. The Company has entered into settlement agreements with some of its insurance carriers, resolving their coverage disputes by agreeing to pay specified amounts to the Company. The Company is vigorously pursuing the litigation against the remaining insurers.

In August 2013, the Los Angeles Superior Court entered a jury verdict against the Company in an asbestos-related personal injury action with damages of $35.0 million, $32.5 million of which was non-compensatory and will not be recoverable through insurance if the verdict is upheld. The Company has appealed this verdict. The Company posted a surety bond of $55.0 million related to the appeal. The Company cannot predict the outcome of this pending litigation and therefore cannot reasonably estimate the amount of possible loss, if any, that could result from this action.
The Company's estimate of asbestos-related liabilities is subject to uncertainty because liabilities are influenced by numerous variables that are inherently difficult to predict. Key variables include the number and type of new claims, the litigation process from jurisdiction to jurisdiction and from case to case, reforms that may be made by state and federal courts and the passage of state or federal tort reform legislation. The nature of the historical product being encapsulated and the lifecycle of the product allow the Company to aggressively defend against these lawsuits and, at present, management does not believe that asbestos-related product liability claims are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

To date, the Company has paid and accrued $353.1 million in defense and indemnity in advance of insurers' reimbursement and has received $195.9 million in cash and notes from insurers. The net balance of $157.2 million, is expected to be fully recovered. Timing of recovery is dependent on final resolution of the declaratory judgment action referred to above or additional negotiated settlements. At December 31, 2014, insurers owed $141.9 million in association with these claims.

In addition to the $157.2 million net balance relating to past settlements and defense costs, the Company has estimated a liability of $113.2 million for claims asserted, but not yet resolved and their related defense costs at March 31, 2015. The Company also has a related asset of $113.2 million to recognize proceeds from the insurance carriers, which is expected to be fully recovered. Receipt of these proceeds is not expected prior to the resolution of the declaratory judgment action referred to above, which is expected to occur subsequent to March 31, 2016. At December 31, 2014, the comparable value of the accrued liability and associated insurance asset was $111.8 million.

The Company does not believe that it can, at present, reasonably estimate possible losses in excess of those for which it has accrued. The Company's belief is based on a number of factors, including without limitation, because the Company cannot reasonably predict how many additional claims may be brought against the Company (or parties the Company has an obligation to indemnify) in the future, the particular illnesses or medical conditions that may be alleged in such claims, the allegations in such claims and the evidence submitted by claimants in support thereof, the possible outcomes in settling or litigating such claims, the time in which claims will proceed through courts in which they are asserted, or the impact of tort reform legislation that may be enacted at the state or federal levels. The Company reviews factors relevant to the asbestos claims that have been or may in the future be asserted against it on an ongoing basis.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-03, "Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs," which changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements. Under this guidance such costs would be presented as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its Consolidated Balance Sheet, but expects that as of March 31, 2015 this guidance would result in the reduction of assets and liabilities by approximately $17 million.

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board amended the Accounting Standards Codification to add Topic 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers," outlining a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and superseding most current revenue recognition guidance. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS FOR FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements contained in this Form 10-Q (including Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations) may contain forward-looking statements as contemplated by the 1995 Private Securities Litigation Reform Act (the “Act”) that are based on management's current outlook, expectations, estimates and projections. Words such as "anticipates," "believes," "continues," "could," "designed," "effect," "estimates," "evaluates," "expects," "forecasts," "goal," "initiative," "intends," "outlook," "plans," "potential," "project," "pursue," "seek," "should," "target," "when," "would," variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. All statements, other than statements of historical fact contained or incorporated by reference in this Form 10-Q, that we expect or anticipate will or may occur in the future regarding our financial position, business strategy and measures to implement that strategy, including changes to operations, competitive strengths, goals, expansion and growth of our business and operations, plans, references to future success and other such matters, are forward-looking statements. Accounting estimates, such as those described under the heading "Critical Accounting Policies" in Item 7 of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, are inherently forward-looking. These statements are based on assumptions and analysis made by us in light of our experience and our perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors we believe are appropriate in the circumstances. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance and the Company's actual results may differ materially from those expressed, projected or implied in or by the forward-looking statements.

You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and generally beyond our control. Such risks and uncertainties include: fluctuations in domestic or foreign vehicle production, the continued use by original equipment manufacturers of outside suppliers, fluctuations in demand for vehicles containing our products, changes in general economic conditions, as well as the other risks noted under Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K and in other reports that we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We do not undertake any obligation to update or announce publicly any updates to or revision to any of the forward-looking statements in this Form 10-Q to reflect any change in our expectations or any change in events, conditions, circumstances, or assumptions underlying the statements.

This section is intended to provide meaningful cautionary statements for purposes of the safe harbor provisions of the Act. This should not be construed as a complete list of all of the economic, competitive, governmental, technological and other factors that could adversely affect our expected consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently believe are immaterial also may impair our business, operations, liquidity, financial condition and prospects.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There have been no material changes to the information concerning our exposures to interest rate risk or commodity price risk as stated in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Foreign currency exchange rate risk is the risk that we will incur economic losses due to adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Currently, our most significant currency exposures relate to the British Pound, the Chinese Yuan, the Euro, the Hungarian Forint, the Japanese Yen, the Mexican Peso, the Swedish Krona and the South Korean Won. We mitigate our foreign currency exchange rate risk by establishing local production facilities and related supply chain participants in the markets we serve, by invoicing customers in the same currency as the source of the products and by funding some of our investments in foreign markets through local currency loans. We also monitor our foreign currency exposure in each country and implement strategies to respond to changing economic and political environments. In addition, the Company periodically enters into forward currency contracts in order to reduce exposure to exchange rate risk related to transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency.

The foreign currency translation adjustment losses of $249.8 million and $2.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, contained within our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income represent the foreign currency translational impacts of converting our non-U.S. dollar subsidiaries financial statements to the Company’s reporting currency (U.S. Dollar). The first quarter 2015 foreign currency translation adjustment loss was primarily due to the impact of a strengthening U.S. dollar, which increased approximately 11% in relation to the Euro between December 31, 2014 and March 31, 2015. This 11% change in the Euro increased other comprehensive loss by approximately $243 million in the first quarter of 2015 and represents approximately 97% of the first quarter 2015 foreign currency translation adjustment loss balance of $249.8 million.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these procedures are effective. There have been no changes in internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.
Legal Proceedings
The Company is subject to a number of claims and judicial and administrative proceedings (some of which involve substantial amounts) arising out of the Company’s business or relating to matters for which the Company may have a contractual indemnity obligation. See Note 14 — Contingencies to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of environmental, product liability and other litigation, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2.
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

In February 2015, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the purchase of up to $1.0 billion of the Company's common stock over three years. The Company's Board of Directors has authorized the purchase of up to 69.6 million shares of the Company's common stock in the aggregate. As of March 31, 2015, the Company had repurchased 51,624,413 shares in the aggregate under the Common Stock Repurchase Program. All shares purchased under this authorization have been and will continue to be repurchased in the open market at prevailing prices and at times and in amounts to be determined by management as market conditions and the Company's capital position warrant. The Company may use Rule 10b5-1 and 10b-18 plans to facilitate share repurchases. Repurchased shares will be deemed common stock held in treasury and may subsequently be reissued for general corporate purposes.

Employee transactions include restricted shares withheld to offset statutory minimum tax withholding that occurs upon vesting of restricted shares. The BorgWarner Inc. Amended and Restated 2004 Stock Incentive Plan and the BorgWarner Inc. 2014 Stock Incentive Plan provide that the withholding obligations be settled by the Company retaining stock that is part of the Award. Withheld shares will be deemed common stock held in treasury and may subsequently be reissued for general corporate purposes.

All capitalized terms shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan, unless specifically set forth otherwise herein. The parties hereto agree as follows:
1.    Performance Period. The Performance Period commences on January 1, 20__, and ends on December 31, 20__.
2.    Value of Performance Shares. Each Performance Share shall represent and have a value equal to one share of common stock, par value $0.01, of the Company, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4(e) of the Plan.
3.    Performance Shares and Achievement of Performance Goal. The number of Performance Shares to be earned under this Agreement shall be based upon the Company’s Total Shareholder Return as compared to the Total Shareholder Return of companies in the DJUSAT index (identified in Exhibit A) for the Performance Period.
For this purpose, “Total Shareholder Return” shall be determined as follows:
Total Shareholder        =    Change in Stock Price + Dividends Paid
        Return (“TSR”)                Beginning Stock Price


Exhibit 10.2

“Beginning Stock Price” shall mean the closing price as reported on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Tape of one (1) share of stock on the last trading day immediately prior to the first day of the Performance Period. “Ending Stock Price” shall mean the closing price as reported on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Tape of one (1) share of stock for the last trading day immediately prior to the end of the Performance Period. “Change in Stock Price” shall mean the difference between the Ending Stock Price and the Beginning Stock Price. Finally, “Dividends Paid” shall mean the total of all dividends paid on one (1) share of stock during the Performance Period, provided that dividends shall be treated as though they are reinvested on their respective ex-dividend dates.
Following the TSR determination, the Company’s Percentile Rank shall be determined as follows:
Percentile Rank
 
Company Rank minus one
=
Total Number of Companies in the DJUSAT Excluding BorgWarner Inc.

Company Rank shall be determined by listing from highest TSR to lowest TSR each company in the DJUSAT (including the Company) and counting up from the company with the lowest TSR.
The percent of Target Number of Performance Shares earned shall then be determined based on the following chart:
Company’s Percentile Rank
Percent of Target Number of Performance Shares Earned
 
 
90th and above
75th
65th
50th
35th
25th
Below 25th

200.000%
140.000%
100.000%
71.875%
43.750%
25.000%
0.000%
Interpolation shall be used to determine the percent of Target Number of Performance Shares earned in the event the Company’s Percentile Rank does not fall directly on one of the ranks listed in the above chart.




Exhibit 10.2

The Committee shall have no discretion to increase the number of Performance Shares earned under this Agreement (or the amount payable with respect thereto) in excess of the number of Performance Shares determined under this Section 3 (taking into consideration any pro rata adjustment in the event the Committee waives the requirement that the Participant be employed by the Company through the end of the Performance Period, as provided in Section 4 hereof).
4.    Termination Provisions. Except as provided in Section 11(a) of this Agreement and in the next paragraph, a Participant shall be eligible for payment of earned Performance Shares, as specified in Section 3, only if the Participant’s employment with the Company continues through the end of the Performance Period and the Participant does not give notice of the Participant’s voluntary Termination of Employment on or before the end of the Performance Period.
If a Participant suffers a Disability, dies, is terminated involuntarily without Cause during the Performance Period, or in the event of the Participant’s Retirement, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may waive the requirement that the Participant be employed by the Company through the end of the Performance Period. In such a case, the Participant (or in the event of the Participant’s death, the Participant’s beneficiary) shall be eligible for all or that proportion of the number of Performance Shares earned under Section 3 (determined at the end of the Performance Period and based on actual results) that his number of full months of participation during the Performance Period bears to the total number of months in the Performance Period.
In the event of the Participant’s Termination of Employment for Cause, the Participant’s giving of notice of voluntary Termination of Employment or the Participant’s actual voluntary Termination of Employment during the Performance Period, or if the Committee does not exercise its discretion to waive the requirement that the Participant be employed by the Company through the end of the Performance Period in the event of the Participant’s Termination of Employment by reason of the Participant’s death, Disability, involuntary termination without Cause, or Retirement prior to the close of the Performance Period, the Participant shall forfeit this entire award, with no payment to the Participant. The Participant’s transfer of employment to the Company or any Subsidiary from another Subsidiary or the Company during the Performance Period shall not constitute a Termination of Employment.
5.    Dividends. The Participant shall have no right to any dividends which may be paid with respect to shares of Stock until any such shares are delivered to the Participant following the completion of the Performance Period.
6.    Form and Timing of Payment of Performance Shares. The earned Performance Shares shall be paid out one hundred percent (100%) in Stock. Payment of earned Performance Shares shall be made as soon as administratively practicable in the year after the year in which the Performance Period ends, but in any event, no later than March 15 of the year following the year in which the Performance Period ends.
7.    Tax Withholding. The Company shall have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require the Participant or beneficiary to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, and local taxes, domestic or foreign, required by law or regulation to be withheld with respect to any taxable event arising as a result of this Agreement. At the request of the Company, the Participant will adopt a written plan that satisfies the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 under which the Participant


Exhibit 10.2

directs the sale of Performance Shares sufficient to satisfy federal, state, and local tax withholding requirements, with the sale to occur on the date the Performance Shares are paid under Section 6, provided that at the time of the Company’s request the Participant is not aware of material non-public information about the Company and the Participant is not subject to any blackout period.
8.    Nontransferability. Performance Shares may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.
9.    Administration. This Agreement and the rights of the Participant hereunder are subject to all the terms and conditions of the Plan, as the same may be amended from time to time, as well as to such rules and regulations as the Committee may adopt for administration of the Plan. It is expressly understood that the Committee is authorized to administer, construe, and make all determinations necessary or appropriate to the administration of the Plan and this Agreement, all of which shall be binding upon the Participant. Any inconsistency between the Agreement and the Plan shall be resolved in favor of the Plan.
10.    Specific Restrictions Upon Shares. The Participant hereby agrees with the Company as follows:
(a)
The Participant shall acquire the shares of Stock issuable with respect to the Performance Shares granted hereunder for investment purposes only and not with a view to resale or other distribution thereof to the public in violation of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and shall not dispose of any such Stock in transactions which, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, violate the 1933 Act, or the rules and regulations thereunder, or any applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws.
(b)
If any shares of Stock acquired with respect to the Performance Shares shall be registered under the 1933 Act, no public offering (otherwise than on a national securities exchange, as defined in the Exchange Act) of any such Stock shall be made by the Participant under such circumstances that he or she (or such other person) may be deemed an underwriter, as defined in the 1933 Act; and
(c)
The Company shall have the authority to endorse upon the certificate or certificates representing the Shares acquired hereunder such legends referring to the foregoing restrictions.
11.    Miscellaneous.
(a)
Change in Control. As provided by Section 12 of the Plan, in the event of a Change in Control, the restrictions applicable to the Performance Shares granted under this Agreement that remain outstanding as of the date of the Change of Control shall lapse, the Performance Goal shall be deemed to have achieved at target level, and all other terms and conditions shall be deemed to have been satisfied. In the event that the Performance Period is shortened due to a Change in Control, the amount of the Performance Shares deemed


Exhibit 10.2

earned shall be prorated by multiplying the Target Number of Performance Shares by a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of whole months in the shortened Performance Period and the denominator of which is the number of whole months in the original Performance Period. Subject to Section 11(h) of this Agreement, payment shall be made in Stock or cash, at the discretion of the Committee, within thirty (30) days following the effective date of the Change in Control.
(b)
Adjustments to Shares. Subject to Plan Section 4(e), in the event of any merger, reorganization, recapitalization, stock dividend, stock split, extraordinary distribution with respect to the Stock or other change in corporate structure affecting the Stock, the Committee or Board of Directors of the Company may make such substitution or adjustments in the aggregate number and kind of shares of Stock subject to this Performance Share Award as it may determine, in its sole discretion, to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights.
(c)
Notices. Any written notice required or permitted under this Agreement shall be deemed given when delivered personally, as appropriate, either to the Participant or to the Executive Compensation Department of the Company, or when deposited in a United States Post Office as registered mail, postage prepaid, addressed, as appropriate, either to the Participant at his or her address set forth above or such other address as he or she may designate in writing to the Company, or to the Attention: Executive Compensation, BorgWarner Inc., at its headquarters office or such other address as the Company may designate in writing to the Participant.
(d)
Failure To Enforce Not a Waiver. The failure of the Company to enforce at any time any provision of this Agreement shall in no way be construed to be a waiver of such provision or of any other provision hereof.
(e)
Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed according to the internal law, and not the law of conflicts, of the State of Delaware, except that questions concerning the relative rights of the Company and the Participant with respect to Shares, shall be governed by the corporate law of the State of Delaware.
(f)
Provisions of Plan. The Performance Shares provided for herein are granted pursuant to the Plan, and said Performance Shares and this Agreement are in all respects governed by the Plan and subject to all of the terms and provisions thereof, whether such terms and provisions are incorporated in this Agreement solely by reference or expressly cited herein. If there is any inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Plan, the Plan’s terms shall completely supersede and replace the conflicting terms of this Agreement.
(g)
Code section 162(m). It is intended that payments pursuant to this Agreement to a Participant who is a “covered employee” within the meaning of section


Exhibit 10.2

162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code constitute “qualified performance-based compensation” within the meaning of section 1.162.27(e) of the Income Tax Regulations. To the maximum extent possible, this Agreement and the Plan shall be so interpreted and construed. Except in the case of a Change in Control, no amounts in excess of the number of Performance Shares earned under Section 3 of this Agreement (determined at the end of the Performance Period and based on actual results) shall be paid to the Participant. There shall be no waiver by the Committee of any payment limitations in the event of the Participant’s Retirement pursuant to Section 11(b)(iii) of the Plan.
(h)
Section 16 Compliance. If the Participant is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, except in the case of death or disability, at least six months must elapse from the date of acquisition of the Performance Shares granted hereunder to the date of the Participant’s disposition of such Performance Shares or the underlying shares of Stock.

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, the Company has established the BorgWarner Inc. 2014 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), a copy of which is attached hereto or which has been previously provided to the Employee;

WHEREAS, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) of the Company has determined that the Employee be granted Stock Units pursuant to the terms of the Plan and the terms of this Agreement;
    
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth:

1.
Award of Stock Units. The Company hereby awards to the Employee on this date, _______ Stock Units. Each Stock Unit awarded hereunder represents a contingent right to receive one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $.01 (“Stock”) upon satisfaction of the conditions for vesting as provided in Paragraph 4 of this Agreement and subject further to the terms of the Plan and the additional terms and conditions of this Agreement (the “Award”). For purposes of this Agreement, “Employer” shall mean the subsidiary or Affiliate that employs the Employee.

2.
Stock Units. The Company shall credit the Employee’s Stock Units to a Stock Units account established and maintained for the Employee on the books of the Company payable in shares of Stock or cash. The account shall constitute the record of the Stock Units awarded to the Employee under this Agreement, is solely for accounting purposes, and shall not require a segregation of any Company assets.
3.
Dividend Equivalents. Whenever the Company pays any cash or other dividend or makes any other distribution in respect of the Stock, the Employee’s Stock Units account shall be credited with an additional number of Stock Units (including fractions thereof) determined by multiplying (i) the number of Stock Units credited to the Employee on the dividend record date by (ii) the dividend paid on each share of Stock, and dividing the result of such multiplication by (iii) the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the dividend payment date. Credits shall be made effective as of the date of the dividend or other distribution in respect of the Stock. Dividend equivalents credited to the Employee’s account shall be subject to the same restrictions as the Stock Units in respect of which the dividends or other distribution were credited, including, without limitation, the Award’s vesting conditions and distribution provisions.

c.
In the event of a Change in Control, any remaining restrictions applicable to any then unvested Stock Units shall lapse, and such Stock Units shall become free of all restrictions and become fully vested; and

d.
In the event of the Employee’s death or disability, or in the event of the Employee’s involuntary Termination of Employment without Cause or Retirement prior to the vesting of the Stock Units, the Compensation Committee shall have the discretion to waive, in whole or in part, any or all remaining payment limitations with respect to the Stock Units awarded under this Agreement.

5.

6.
Distribution of Stock. The Company shall deliver Stock to the Employee in settlement of the Stock Units awarded by this Agreement equal to the number of the Employee's vested Stock Units (including any additional Stock Units acquired as a result of dividend equivalents that have vested). Payment shall be made to the Employee as soon as practicable on or after the specified vesting date, but in no event no later than December 31 of the year in which the vesting period ends. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, in its sole discretion, settle the Stock Units in the form of: (i) a cash payment to the extent settlement in shares of Stock (1) is prohibited under local law, (2) would require the Employee or the Company to obtain the approval of any governmental and/or regulatory body in the Employee’s country of residence (and/or country of employment, if different) or (3) is administratively burdensome; or (ii) shares of Stock, but require the Employee to immediately sell such shares (in which case, this Agreement shall give the Company the authority to issues sales instructions on behalf of the Employee).

7.
Repatriation; Compliance with Laws. The Employee agrees, as a condition of the grant of the Stock Units, to repatriate all payments attributable to the Stock Units and/or cash acquired under the Plan (including, but not limited to, dividends, dividend equivalents, and any proceeds derived from the sale of the Stock acquired pursuant to the Stock Units) in accordance with all foreign exchange rules and regulations applicable to the Employee. In addition, the Employee also agrees to take any and all actions, and consents to any and all actions taken by the Company and its subsidiaries and Affiliates, as may be required to allow the Company and its subsidiaries and Affiliates to comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations.

Nontransferability.

9.
No Rights as a Stockholder. Prior to the actual delivery of Stock to the Employee in settlement of the Stock Units awarded and vested hereunder (if any), the Employee shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to the Stock Units or any underlying Stock.

10.
No Right to Continued Employment. Nothing contained in the Plan or this Agreement shall confer upon the Employee any right to continued employment nor shall it interfere in any way with the right of the Employer to terminate the employment of the Employee at any time.

11.
Discretionary Nature of Plan; No Vested Rights. The Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Plan is discretionary in nature and limited in duration, and may be amended, cancelled, or terminated by the Company, in its sole discretion, at any time. The grant of Stock Units under the Plan is a one-time benefit and does not create any contractual or other right to receive an award or benefits in lieu of Stock Units in the future. Future awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company, including, but not limited to, the form and timing of an award, the number of shares of Stock subject to the award, and the vesting provisions.

Exhibit 10.3


12.
Termination Indemnities. The value of the Stock Units is an extraordinary item of compensation outside the scope of the Employee’s employment contract, if any. As such, the Stock Units are not part of normal or expected compensation for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension, or retirement benefits or similar payments.

13.
Private Placement. The grant of the Stock Units is not intended to be a public offering of securities in the Employee’s country of residence (or country of employment, if different) but instead is intended to be a private placement. As a private placement, the Company has not submitted any registration statement, prospectus or other filings with the local securities authorities (unless otherwise required under local law), and the grant of the Stock Units is not subject to the supervision of the local securities authorities.

14.
Consent to Collection, Processing and Transfer of Personal Data. Pursuant to applicable personal data protection laws, the Company and the Employer hereby notify the Employee of the following in relation to the Employee’s personal data and the collection, use, processing and transfer of such data in relation to the Company’s grant of this Award and the Employee’s participation in the Plan. The collection, use, processing and transfer of the Employee’s personal data is necessary for the Company’s administration of the Plan and the Employee’s participation in the Plan. The Employee’s denial and/or objection to the collection, use, processing and transfer of personal data may affect the Employee’s participation in the Plan. As such, the Employee voluntarily acknowledges and consents (where required under applicable law) to the collection, use, processing and transfer of personal data as described herein.


The Company and the Employer hold certain personal information about the Employee, including name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social security number or other employee identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of Stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all Stock Units, or any other entitlement to shares of Stock awarded, canceled, purchased, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Employee’s favor, for the purpose of managing and administering the Plan (“Data”). The Data may
be provided by the Employee or collected, where lawful, from third parties, and the Company and the Employer each will process the Data for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Employee’s participation in the Plan. The Data processing will take place through electronic and non-electronic means according to logics and procedures strictly correlated to the purposes for which the Data is collected and with confidentiality and security provisions as set forth by applicable laws and regulations in the Employee’s country of residence (and country of employment, if different). Data processing operations will be performed minimizing the use of personal and identification data when such operations are unnecessary for the processing purposes sought. Data will be accessible within the Company’s organization only by those persons requiring access for purposes of the implementation, administration and operation of the Plan and for the Employee’s participation in the Plan.


The Company and the Employer each will transfer Data internally as necessary for the purpose of implementation, administration and management of the Employee’s participation


-4-



Exhibit 10.3

in the Plan, and the Company and the Employer each may further transfer Data to any third parties assisting the Company in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. These recipients may be located in the European Economic Area, or elsewhere throughout the world, such as the United States. The Employee hereby authorizes (where required under applicable law) them to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for purposes of implementing, administering and managing the Employee’s participation in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required for the administration of the Plan and/or the subsequent holding of shares of Stock on the Employee’s behalf by a broker or other third party with whom the Employee may elect to deposit any shares of Stock acquired pursuant to the Plan.


The Employee may, at any time, exercise his or her rights provided under applicable personal data protection laws, which may include the right to (a) obtain confirmation as to the existence of the Data, (b) verify the content, origin and accuracy of the Data, (c) request the integration, update, amendment, deletion, or blockage (for breach of applicable laws) of the Data, and (d) to oppose, for legal reasons, the collection, processing or transfer of the Data which is not necessary or required for the implementation, administration and/or operation of the Plan and the Employee’s participation in the Plan. The Employee may seek to exercise these rights by contacting the Employer's local HR manager or the Company’s Human Resources Department.

15.
Terms of the Plan Shall Govern. The Award is made pursuant to, and is subject to the Plan, including, without limitation, its provisions governing a Change in Control and Cancellation and Rescission of Awards. In the case of any conflict between the Plan and this Agreement, the terms of the Plan shall control. Unless otherwise indicated, all capitalized terms contained in this Agreement shall have the meaning assigned to them in the Plan.

16.
Tax and Social Insurance Contributions Withholding. Regardless of any action the Company and/or the Employer take with respect to any or all income tax (including U.S. federal, state and local taxes and/or non-U.S. taxes), social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), the Employee acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by the Employee is and remains the Employee’s responsibility, and the Company and the Employer: (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Stock Units, including the grant of the Stock Units, the vesting of the Stock Units, the subsequent sale of any Stock acquired pursuant to the Stock Units and the receipt of any dividends or dividend equivalents; and (ii) do not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Stock Units to reduce or eliminate the Employee’s liability for Tax-Related Items.


Prior to the delivery of the Stock upon the vesting of the Stock Units, if any taxing jurisdiction requires withholding of Tax-Related Items, the Company may withhold a sufficient number of whole shares of Stock otherwise issuable upon the vesting of the Stock Units that have an aggregate Fair Market Value (as defined under the Plan) sufficient to pay the minimum Tax-Related Items required to be withheld with respect to the shares. The cash equivalent of the shares withheld will be used to settle the obligation to withhold the Tax-Related Items (determined by reference to the closing price of the Stock on the New York Stock Exchange


-5-



Exhibit 10.3

on the applicable vesting date). No fractional shares of Stock will be withheld or issued pursuant to the grant of the Stock Units and the issuance of Stock hereunder. Alternatively, the Company and/or the Employer may, in its discretion, withhold any amount necessary to pay the Tax-Related Items from the Employee’s salary/wages or other amounts payable to the Employee, with no withholding in shares of Stock.

In the event the withholding requirements are not satisfied through the withholding of shares of Stock or through the withholding from the Employee’s salary/wages or other amounts payable to the Employee, no shares of Stock will be issued upon vesting of the Stock Units unless and until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Committee) have been made by the Employee with respect to the payment of any Tax-Related Items which the Company and/or the Employer determine, in its sole discretion, must be withheld or collected with respect to such Stock Units. If the Employee is subject to taxation in more than one jurisdiction, the Employee acknowledges that the Company, the Employer or another subsidiary or Affiliate may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. By accepting this grant of Stock Units, the Employee expressly consents to the withholding of shares of Stock and/or the withholding of amounts from the Employee's salary/wages or other amounts payable to the Employee as provided for hereunder. All other Tax-Related Items related to the Stock Units and any Stock delivered in payment thereof are the Employee’s sole responsibility.

17.
Electronic Delivery. The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to the Stock Units or other awards granted to the Employee under the Plan by electronic means. The Employee hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or a third party designated by the Company.

18.
English Language. The Employee acknowledges and agrees that it is the Employee’s express intent that this Agreement, the Plan and all other documents, notices and legal proceedings entered into, given or instituted pursuant to the Stock Units, be drawn up in English. If the Employee has received this Agreement, the Plan or any other documents related to the Stock Units translated into a language other than English, and if the meaning of the translated version is different than the English version, the English version shall control.

19.
Addendum. Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, the Stock Units shall be subject to any special terms and conditions for the Employee’s country of residence (and country of employment, if different), as may be set forth in an addendum to this Agreement (the “Addendum”). Further, if the Employee transfers the Employee’s residence and/or employment to another country reflected in an Addendum, the special terms and conditions for such country will apply to the Employee to the extent the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable in order to comply with local laws, rules and/or regulations or to facilitate the operation and administration of the Stock Units and the Plan (or the Company may establish alternative terms and conditions as may be necessary or advisable to accommodate the Employee’s transfer). In all circumstances, any applicable Addendum shall constitute part of this Agreement.

Exhibit 10.3

20.
Additional Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on the Stock Units, any shares of Stock acquired pursuant to the Stock Units, and the Employee’s participation in the Plan, to the extent the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that such other requirements are necessary or advisable in order to comply with local laws, rules and/or regulations or to facilitate the operation and administration of the Stock Units and the Plan. Such requirements may include (but are not limited to) requiring the Employee to sign any agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.

21.
Governing Law. The Award made and actions taken under the Plan and this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without taking into account its conflict of laws provisions.

22.
Binding Effect. Subject to the limitations stated above, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties’ respective heirs, legal representatives successors and assigns.

23.
Changes in Capital or Corporate Structure. In the event of any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, stock dividend, stock split, extraordinary distribution with respect to the Stock or other change in corporate structure affecting the Stock, the number of Stock Units awarded under this Agreement shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 12 of the Plan.

24.
Entire Agreement. This Agreement is the entire agreement between the parties hereto, and all prior oral and written representations are merged into this Agreement. The headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience and identification only and are not intended to describe, interpret, define or limit the scope, extent, or intent of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

25.
Notices. Any notice or other communication required or permitted under this Agreement must be in writing and must be delivered personally, sent by certified, registered or express mail, or sent by overnight courier, at the sender's expense.
