POLESTAR COMPENSATION 4.1 Since the Entity´s Credits include Polestar´s contribution, Volvo Cars and Polestar have agreed that Volvo Cars shall pay a compensation to Polestar for its contribution of [***] Emission Credits (the “Polestar Compensation”). 4.2 The Polestar Compensation will be calculated based on the value of the compensation obtained by Volvo Cars when selling [***] Emission Credits to external parties and the Polestar Share (as defined in Section 4.3 below) thereof. 4.3 The calculation of the Polestar Share is based on the proportional contribution of [***] Emission Credits from Polestar branded vehicles to the Party’s total amount of [***] Emission Credits. The calculation below is showing an estimation of the Polestar Share and the Polestar Compensation for MY [***]: 3 (a) Volvo Cars and Polestar generated credits of [***] credits surplus for MY [***]: i. ~[***] generated by Volvo Cars ii. ~[***] generated by Polestar. (b) Calculation: Polestar Share [***]. 4.4 The calculation of the Polestar Share is based on the proportional contribution of [***] Emission Credits from Polestar branded vehicles to the Party´s total amount of [***] Emission Credits. The calculation below is showing an estimation of the Polestar Share and the Polestar Compensation for MY[***]: (a) Volvo Cars and Polestar generated credits of [***] credits surplus for MY [***]: i. ~[***] generated by Volvo Cars ii. ~[***] generated by Polestar (b) Calculation: Polestar Share (27%*1,108,035) * 24.50 USD = 7,329,652.00 USD 4.5 The estimated Polestar Share takes into consideration, inter alia, the number of all MY [***] and MY [***] registered vehicles. 5. PROVISIONAL AND FINAL CALCULATION AND SETTLEMENT 5.1 This section sets out the conditions and process for the preliminary and final calculation of the Volvo Cars Credits and their monetary value as well the calculation and settlement of the provisional and final Polestar Compensation. 5.2 Volvo Cars will inform Polestar about the outcome of the preliminary calculation of the Polestar Compensation and the potential final adjustment without undue delay. Any questions or comments Polestar may have on the information received under this section may be brought forward in accordance with the escalation principles in Section 10.1 below. 5.3 For the sake of clarity the calculation of the Polestar Share according to Section 4.3 will involve that in the event that Lotus Cars should have a deficit in [***] Emission Credits affecting the Entity, Volvo Cars and Polestar will share such deficit according to each Party´s pro rata share of the Parties total calculated contribution of [***] Emission Credits for MY[***] and MY[***]. In the event that Lotus Cars needs to reimburse Volvo Cars and Polestar due to a [***] Emission Credits deficit, such reimbursement will be shared between the Parties according to each Party´s pro rata share of the Party´s final calculated contribution of [***] Emission Credits for MY[***] and MY[***]. As being responsible of [***] Emission Credits reporting, Volvo Cars will pursue both Volvo Cars’ and Polestar´s interest in an eventual reimbursement from Lotus Cars. Volvo Cars will inform Polestar of the status in the ongoing alignment between Volvo Cars and Lotus Cars prior to finalizing the agreement with Lotus Cars. 5.4 Polestar Provisional Compensation 4 The preliminary calculation of the Volvo Cars Credits and their preliminary monetary value is estimated to be finalized in Q1 2023. The outcome of this calculation will be the “Provisional Settlement Amount”. Volvo Cars will calculate the preliminary Polestar Compensation (the “Polestar Provisional Compensation”) based on the preliminary Polestar Share of the Provisional Settlement Amount. Volvo Cars shall inform Polestar about the Provisional Settlement Amount and the Polestar Provisional Compensation within five business days after it has received the Provisional Settlement Amount on its account. Volvo Cars shall then pay to Polestar the Polestar Provisional Compensation in accordance with Section 6.1 below. 5.5 Polestar Final Compensation It is understood between the Parties that the Provisional Settlement Amount is only a preliminary amount that is subject to adjustment (up or down) and such adjustment is estimated to be finalized in Q2 2023. This adjusted Provisional Settlement Amount will be the “Final Settlement Amount”. The adjustment will be based on the final [***] report, reported to EPA. Volvo Cars will calculate the final Polestar Compensation (the “Polestar Final Compensation”) based on the final Polestar Share of the Final Settlement Amount. If the Polestar Final Compensation is more than the Polestar Provisional Compensation, Volvo Cars shall pay to Polestar, in accordance with Section 6.2 below, the difference between the Polestar Provisional Compensation and the Polestar Final Compensation (the “Polestar Surplus Amount”). Volvo Cars shall inform Polestar about the Final Settlement Amount and the Polestar Surplus Amount within five business days after it has received the Final Settlement Amount on its account. If the Polestar Final Compensation is less than the Polestar Provisional Compensation, Polestar shall pay to Volvo Cars in accordance with Section 6.3 below, the difference between the Polestar Provisional Compensation and the Polestar Final Compensation (the “Polestar Shortfall Amount”). Volvo Cars shall inform Polestar about the Final Settlement Amount and the Polestar Shortfall Amount within five business days after it has received notice of the Final Settlement Amount. 5.6 Payments As further specified in this Section 5, the Volvo Cars Credits are subject to potential adjustments and because of that, the Polestar Share might be adjusted as well. Therefore, the payments to be made under this Agreement are divided into a provisional and a final amount. Furthermore, the monetary value of the Volvo Cars Credits is not yet set on the date of this Agreement and therefore it is not possible to state any amounts in this Agreement. 6. PAYMENT TERMS 6.1 Polestar shall invoice the Polestar Provisional Compensation to Volvo Cars within [***] days following the date that Volvo Cars has informed Polestar in accordance with Section 5.3.3 above.
