AMENDMENT NO. 1 AND CONSENT AGREEMENT
EXHIBIT 10.2
This Amendment No. 1 and Consent Agreement (this “Agreement”) dated as of April 30,
2009 is entered into by and among BORGWARNER INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”),
the Guarantors (as defined in the Credit Agreement (defined below)), the Lenders (as defined in the
Credit Agreement (defined below)) identified on the signature pages hereto, JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, as
the administrative agent under the Credit Agreement prior to giving effect to this Agreement (in
such capacity, the “Existing Administrative Agent”), and BANK OF AMERICA, N.A. (“Bank
of America”), as the administrative agent under the Credit Agreement after giving effect to
this Agreement (in such capacity, the “Replacement Administrative Agent”). Capitalized
terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Credit
Agreement.
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
WHEREAS, the Borrower, the Lenders (including Bank of America), and the Existing
Administrative Agent are all parties to that certain Credit Agreement dated as of July 22, 2004 (as
amended hereby and as further amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to
time, the “Credit Agreement”).
WHEREAS, the Existing Administrative Agent has provided, or pursuant hereto is providing,
notice to the Borrower that it is resigning as the Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank and Swingline
Lender pursuant to Section 2.6(i) and Article VIII of the Credit Agreement (prior
to giving effect to this Agreement), and the Borrower has requested that Bank of America become the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender under the Credit Agreement, and
Bank of America has agreed to do so subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.
WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested, or pursuant hereto is requesting, pursuant to Section
2.7 of the Credit Agreement (prior to giving effect to this Agreement), that the Lenders agree
to extend their Commitments to an extended Maturity Date of January 22, 2011, and certain of the
Lenders are willing so to extend all or a portion of their respective Commitments subject to the
terms and conditions set forth herein, and subject to reversion to the existing Maturity Date of
July 22, 2009 under certain circumstances as more fully set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement
(defined below).
WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested that the Replacement Administrative Agent and the Lenders
agree to amend the Credit Agreement as more specifically set forth herein (with the substitution of
the Replacement Administrative Agent for the Existing Administrative Agent being deemed to have
occurred prior to such amendments, as further provided below), and such Administrative Agent and
Lenders party hereto have agreed to such amendments subject to the terms and conditions set forth
herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date pursuant to Section 4 hereof
and in consideration of these premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
1. Replacement of Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender. Pursuant
to its notice to the Borrower, delivered either prior to the date of this Agreement or pursuant to
its signature to this Agreement, and notwithstanding any contrary provisions relating to notice or
process in the Credit Agreement, effective upon the Effective Date (defined below) the Existing
Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have resigned as the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank
and the Swingline Lender, and Bank of America shall at such time become the Administrative Agent,
the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender, all pursuant to an Agency Resignation, Assignment and
Assumption Agreement dated as of the date hereof between the Existing Administrative Agent and the
Replacement Administrative Agent (the “Agent Replacement Agreement”). The parties hereto, by their
execution of this Agreement, agree to such resignation and replacement of the Administrative Agent,
the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender, and that such resignation and replacement, and the Agent
Replacement Agreement, shall be deemed to have occurred and be effective upon the occurrence of the
Effective Date immediately prior to the effectiveness of the extension (and related assignments, if
any) and amendments set forth in paragraphs 2 and 3 below.
2. Extension of Maturity Date and Related Assignments.
(a) Pursuant to its notice to the Lenders, delivered either prior to the date of this
Agreement or by this Agreement, the Borrower has requested that the Lenders agree to extend
the Maturity Date of their Commitments under the Credit Agreement pursuant to Section 2.7
thereof (with such adjustments thereto as are provided herein) to an extended Maturity Date
of January 22, 2011 (the “Extended Maturity Date”).
(b) Each Lender that is willing to extend all or a portion of its Commitment, or an
amount in excess of its Commitment in effect prior to the Effective Date, under the Credit
Agreement to the proposed Extended Maturity Date as a Continuing Lender (such amount with
respect to any Lender, its “Extended Commitment Amount”) has executed this Agreement
and has indicated to the Borrower and the Replacement Administrative Agent the amount of its
Commitment it is agreeing to extend to the Extended Maturity Date. All such extensions
shall be pro rata among the Facilities of the Continuing Lenders.
(c) The Commitments of Non-Extending Lenders and the portion of the Commitments of
Continuing Lenders that are not extended in accordance with this Agreement (such amount with
respect to any Lender, its “Non-Extended Commitment Amount”) shall continue to have
the Maturity Date in effect prior to giving effect to this Agreement, July 22, 2009 (the
“Existing Maturity Date”).
(d) The Commitments of all Lenders in effect as of the Effective Date shall continue
unchanged to the close of business on the Existing Maturity Date. Upon the close of
business on the Existing Maturity Date, the Extended Commitment Amounts
2
shall immediately take effect, and at such time the Extended Commitment Amounts of the
Continuing Lenders shall be as set forth on Schedule A hereto (after giving effect
to any assignments deemed to have occurred on the Existing Maturity Date pursuant to
paragraph 2(e) below).
(e) In the event that the Extended Commitment Amount upon the occurrence of the
Existing Maturity Date with respect to any Continuing Lender exceeds such Lender’s
Commitment prior to the Existing Maturity Date (with respect to any Continuing Lender, its
“Excess Extended Commitment”), then each Lender with a Commitment expiring on the
Existing Maturity Date shall be deemed to have made an assignment, pro rata among them in
accordance with their Non-Extended Commitment Amounts, to each Lender holding an Excess
Extended Commitment. Such assignments shall be deemed to have occurred immediately at the
close of business on the Existing Maturity Date, pursuant to the Borrower’s rights under
Section 2.7(d) of the Credit Agreement, but without any further action (and without the need
for any Assignment and Acceptance or other documentation) hereunder or under the Credit
Agreement, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Credit Agreement;
provided that in the event that any Loans are outstanding pursuant to any reduced
Non-Extended Commitment Amounts, applicable payments of principal, interest and fees shall
be made by the Borrower and/or the Lenders with Excess Extended Commitments, as the
Replacement Administrative Agent may direct, in order to effectuate such deemed assignments.
(f) After the Effective Date, the Borrower may exercise its rights to have Lenders
holding Non-Extended Commitment Amounts assign such amounts to Lenders or prospective
Lenders willing to agree to the Extended Maturity Date with respect to such Commitments, in
each case in compliance with the requirements of Section 2.7(d) of the Credit Agreement,
except that (i) such assignment may be required with respect to any Non-Extended
Commitment Amount even if the applicable Lender is a Continuing Lender because it has agreed
to the Extended Maturity Date hereunder with respect to a portion of its Commitment, and
(ii) any such assignment shall only be effective upon the occurrence of the Existing
Maturity Date. In the event any such assignment occurs, the Borrower and the proposed
assignee shall inform the Replacement Administrative Agent, and Schedule A hereto
shall be revised to show such assignment, so that Schedule A shows all Extended
Commitment Amounts as of the close of business on the Existing Maturity Date.
(g) The Extended Commitment Amounts set forth on Schedule A as of the Existing
Maturity Date shall be effective pursuant to this paragraph 2 as of such date, without
regard to any assignments by any Continuing Lenders after the Effective Date but prior to
the Existing Maturity Date. The Schedule A prepared and provided by the Replacement
Administrative Agent shall be conclusive as of the Existing Maturity Date absent manifest
error.
(h) The parties hereto hereby acknowledge that the extension of the Maturity Date to
the Extended Maturity Date is subject to the provisions of the Amended Credit
3
Agreement, and such Maturity Date may revert to July 22, 2009 under certain
circumstances as more fully set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement.
(i) The parties hereto hereby waive (i) any inconsistency between the timing of the
proposed extension as set forth in this paragraph 2 of this Agreement and the timing of
extensions generally required by Section 2.7 of the Credit Agreement, including
periods of notice, response and effectiveness, (ii) any inconsistency between this Agreement
and Section 2.7 of the Credit Agreement to the extent that any Lender is agreeing to
extend some, but not all, of its Commitments pursuant to this Agreement, and (iii) any
requirement in Section 2.7(a) of the Credit Agreement that at least the Required
Lenders consent to extend the Maturity Date with respect to their Commitments.
(j) The extension of the Maturity Date with respect to the Extended Commitment Amounts
pursuant to this paragraph 2 shall be deemed to have occurred on the Effective Date
immediately after the replacement of the Administrative Agent set forth in paragraph 1 above
and immediately prior to the amendments set forth in paragraph 3 below, despite the
effectiveness of the Extended Commitment Amounts and Schedule A not taking effect until the
Existing Maturity Date.
(k) In the event that pursuant to the Amended Credit Agreement the Maturity Date with
respect to the Extended Commitment Amounts reverts to the Existing Maturity Date, as
provided therein, Schedule A shall not be effective, and all Commitments shall
mature as of the Existing Maturity Date.
3. Amendments.
(a) Amendment to the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement is hereby amended
in its entirety so that, after giving effect to such amendment, it reads in the form set

Amended Credit Agreement shall be further amended by deleting such section in its
entirety and replacing it with the following:
(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and
available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of

such funds shall be applied:
First, to payment of that portion of the

other amounts (including fees, charges and disbursements of
counsel to the Administrative Agent) payable to the
Administrative Agent in its capacity as such;
Second, to payment of that portion of the
Obligations arising under the Loan Documents constituting
fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal,
interest and Letter of Credit fees under Section 2.13(b))
payable to the Lenders and the Issuing Bank (including fees,
charges and disbursements of counsel to the respective
Lenders and the Issuing Bank arising under the Loan Documents
and amounts payable under Sections 2.16, 2.17 and 2.18),

Borrower or as otherwise required by Law.
Subject to Section 2.6(c), amounts used to Cash Collateralize the
aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to clause
Fifth above shall be applied to satisfy drawings under such Letters
of Credit as they occur. If any amount remains on deposit as Cash

expired, such remaining amount shall be applied to the other Obligations, if
any, in the order set forth above.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Obligations arising under Secured Cash
Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements shall be excluded from
the application described above if either (a) no Default has occurred and is
continuing at such time or (b) the Administrative Agent has not received
written notice thereof, together with such supporting documentation as the
Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank
or Hedge Bank, as the case may be. Each Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank
not a party to the Credit Agreement that has given the notice contemplated
