The Tax Matters Agreement also imposes restrictions on the parties with respect to actions that could cause the Separation and the Distribution to fail to qualify for their intended tax treatment and allocates responsibility among the parties for taxes that may arise if the Transactions fail to qualify for their intended tax treatment. Employee Matters Agreement The Company, Gentherm and SpinCo entered into an Employee Matters Agreement (the “Employee Matters Agreement”), with respect to the transfer of the employment of certain employees of the Company and the Performance Technologies Business and other employee-related matters, including allocation among the parties of assets, liabilities and responsibilities related to employee benefit plan and compensation arrangements and with respect to terms of employment, benefit plan transition and coverage and other compensation and labor matters, as well as responsibility for employee and benefit plan liabilities for certain current and former employees of the Company and the Performance Technologies Business.

Modine will provide to SpinCo various services (which may include HR, legal, supply chain, administrative, finance and accounting and IT) for durations anticipated to range from one to three months up to 12 months.

Pursuant to the Intellectual Property Matters Agreement, Modine and SpinCo each granted the other a worldwide, fully paid-up, royalty-free, irrevocable, non-exclusive license under the intellectual property (other than trademarks, Internet domain names and social media accounts) owned by the licensor and used in the operation of the licensee’s business to use, make, have made, sell and otherwise exploit the licensee’s products or services in the licensee’s field of business and the improvements, enhancements and natural evolutions and extensions thereof (but excluding the field of the licensor’s business as of the Separation). The licenses are granted without representations or warranties. The term of the Intellectual Property Matters Agreement continues with respect to each licensed intellectual property right for so long as the intellectual property right remains in force. Trademark Matters Agreement The Company and SpinCo entered into a Trademark Matters Agreement (the “Trademark Matters Agreement”). In the Separation, the “Modine” trademark was transferred to SpinCo as part of the Performance Technologies Business. Under the Trademark Matters Agreement, SpinCo granted the Company a royalty-free license to use the “Modine” trademark to advertise, market, distribute and sell certain products and services for Modine’s commercial, industrial, and building heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration (“HVAC&R”) and heat transfer products businesses. The license is exclusive for the first four years, then becomes non-exclusive, in the field of Modine’s HVAC&R business. The license is non-exclusive with respect to Modine’s heat transfer business. In addition, SpinCo granted Modine a royalty-free, non-exclusive transitional license to use the “Modine” trademark as otherwise used in Modine’s business as of the Separation: (a) for up to two years after the Distribution, with three months thereafter to sell off inventory manufactured or labeled with the trademarks; and (b) for up to two years after the Distribution to exhaust existing stock of signs, advertising, promotional and other materials bearing the “Modine” trademark. The initial term of the license is four years for the HVAC&R business, renewing thereafter for successive two-year periods unless Modine notifies SpinCo of non-renewal, provided that Modine is not in material breach of the agreement. The term of the license is two years for the heat transfer business.
