(the “Company”) and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Debtors”) each filed a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The Debtors’ chapter 11 cases (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) are being jointly administered under the caption “In re: Garrett Motion Inc., 20-12212.” On the Petition Date, the Debtors entered into a Restructuring Support Agreement (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “RSA”) with consenting lenders (the “Consenting Lenders”) holding, in the aggregate, approximately 61% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of loans under that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of September 27, 2018, (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Prepetition Credit Agreement”) by and among the Company, as Holdings, Garrett LX III S.à r.l., as Lux Borrower, Garrett Borrowing LLC, as U.S. Co-Borrower, Garrett Motion S.à r.l., as Swiss Borrower, the Lenders and Issuing Banks party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent. Pursuant to the RSA, the Consenting Lenders and the Debtors agreed to the principal terms of a financial restructuring, to be implemented through a plan of reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code, and which could include the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of certain Debtors and of the stock of certain Debtors and other subsidiaries, as further described below. On January 6, 2021, the Debtors and Consenting Lenders holding no less than a majority of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of loans under the Prepetition Credit Agreement then held by all Consenting Lenders entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Restructuring Support Agreement (the “Amendment”), which, among other things, extended certain milestones contained in the RSA. On the Petition Date, certain of the Debtors also entered into a share and asset purchase agreement (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Stalking Horse Purchase Agreement”) with AMP Intermediate B.V. (the “Stalking Horse Bidder”) and AMP U.S. Holdings, LLC, each affiliates of KPS Capital Partners, LP (“KPS”), pursuant to which the Stalking Horse Bidder agreed to purchase, subject to the terms and conditions contained therein, substantially all of the assets of the Debtors. The Stalking Horse Purchase Agreement constituted a “stalking horse” bid that was subject to higher and better offers by third parties in accordance with the bidding procedures approved by the Bankruptcy Court in an order entered by the Bankruptcy Court after hearings on October 21, 2020 and October 23, 2020 (the “Bidding Procedures Order”). The Bidding Procedures Order permitted third parties to submit competing proposals for the purchase and/or reorganization of the Debtors and approved stalking horse protections for the Stalking Horse Bidder. On October 6, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order granting interim approval of the Debtors’ entry into a Senior Secured Super-Priority Debtor-in-Possession Credit Agreement (the “DIP Credit Agreement”), with the lenders party thereto (the “DIP Lenders”) and Citibank N.A. as administrative agent (the “DIP Agent”). On October 9, 2020 (the “Closing Date”), the Company, the DIP Agent and the DIP Lenders entered into the DIP Credit Agreement. The DIP Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured, super-priority term loan (the “DIP Term Loan Facility”) in the principal amount of $200 million, $100 million of which was funded on the Closing Date and $100 million of which was subsequently funded on October 26, 2020, following entry of the Bankruptcy Court’s final order approving the DIP Term Loan Facility on October 23, 2020. The proceeds of the DIP Term Loan Facility are to be used by the Debtors to (a) pay certain costs, premiums, fees and expenses related to the Chapter 11 Cases, (b) make payments pursuant to any interim or final order entered by the Bankruptcy Court pursuant to any “first day” motions permitting the payment by the Debtors of any prepetition amounts then due and owing, (c) make certain adequate protection payments in accordance with the DIP Credit Agreement and (d) fund working capital needs of the Debtors and their subsidiaries to the extent permitted by the DIP Credit Agreement. On October 12, 2020, the Company, the DIP Agent and the DIP Lenders entered into the First Amendment to the DIP Credit Agreement (the “First DIP Amendment”). The First DIP Amendment eliminates the obligation for the Company to pay certain fees to the DIP Lenders in connection with certain prepayment events under the DIP Credit Agreement. In accordance with the Bidding Procedures Order, the Debtors held an auction (the “Auction”) at which they solicited and received higher and better offers from KPS and from a consortium made up of Owl Creek Asset Management, L.P., Warlander Asset Management, L.P., Jefferies LLC, Bardin Hill Opportunistic Credit Master Fund LP, Marathon Asset Management L.P., and Cetus Capital VI, L.P., or affiliates thereof (collectively, the “OWJ Group”). In addition to the bids received at the Auction from KPS and the OWJ Group, the Debtors also received a transaction proposal in parallel from Centerbridge Partners, L.P., Oaktree Capital Management, L.P., Honeywell International Inc. and certain other investors and parties (collectively, the “CO Group”). The Auction was completed on January 8, 2021, at which point the Debtors filed with the Bankruptcy Court (i) an auction notice noting that a bid received from KPS was the successful bid at the Auction but that the Debtors were still considering the proposal from the CO Group, (ii) a plan of reorganization (as may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Plan”) and (iii) a related disclosure statement (as may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, (the “Disclosure Statement”). 3 On January 11, 2021, the Debtors, having determined that the proposal from the CO Group was a higher and better proposal than the successful bid of KPS at the Auction, entered into a Plan Support Agreement with the CO Group (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “PSA”) and announced their intention to pursue a restructuring transaction with the CO Group (the “Transaction”). As a result of the entry into the PSA, (i) the Debtors filed a supplemental auction notice with the Bankruptcy Court on January 11, 2021 describing the Debtors’ determination to proceed with the Transaction, (ii) the Debtors filed a revised Plan to implement the Transaction and a related revised Disclosure Statement with the Bankruptcy Court on January 22, 2021 and (iii) the Stalking Horse Purchase Agreement became terminable, following which, on January 15, 2021, the Stalking Horse Bidder terminated the Stalking Horse Purchase Agreement and the Debtors subsequently paid a termination payment of $63 million and an expense reimbursement payment of $15.7 million to the Stalking Horse Bidder pursuant to the terms of the Stalking Horse Purchase Agreement and the Bidding Procedures Order. In accordance with the terms of the PSA, on January 22, 2021, the Debtors’ entered into an Equity Backstop Commitment Agreement (the “EBCA”) with certain members of the CO Group (the “Equity Backstop Parties”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Company will conduct the rights offering contemplated by the PSA (the “Rights Offering”) and each Equity Backstop Party committed to (i) exercise its rights, as a stockholder of the Company, to purchase in the Rights Offering shares of the convertible Series A preferred stock of the Company to be offered in the Rights Offering (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) and (ii) purchase, on a pro rata basis (in accordance with percentages set forth in the EBCA), shares of Series A Preferred Stock which were offered but not subscribed for in the Rights Offering. On February 15, 2021, the Debtors and the CO Group agreed with certain of the Consenting Lenders to amend and restate the PSA so as to, among other things, add certain of the Consenting Lenders as parties thereto supporting the Plan. The Debtors’ entry into and performance and obligations under the PSA and the EBCA are subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court and other customary closing conditions. On February 9, 2021, the official committee of equity securities holders (the “Equity Committee”) filed an objection to the Debtors’ motion seeking authority to enter into and perform under the PSA and the ECBA. A hearing on the matter is scheduled to take place in the Bankruptcy Court on February 16, 2021. There can be no assurances that the Debtors will obtain the approval of the Bankruptcy Court and complete the Transaction. On January 24, 2021, representatives of the Equity Committee submitted a restructuring term sheet for a proposed plan of reorganization sponsored by Atlantic Park. The Equity Committee subsequently filed with the Bankruptcy Court on February 5, 2021, a proposed plan of reorganization and related disclosure statement with respect to such transaction (as reflected in the proposed plan of reorganization filed with the Bankruptcy Court, the “Atlantic Park Proposal”). The transactions contemplated under the Atlantic Park Proposal have been proposed as an alternative to the transactions contemplated under the Plan. In connection with the Atlantic Park Proposal, the Equity Committee filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court seeking to modify the Debtors’ exclusive periods to file and solicit votes on a Chapter 11 plan. The Equity Committee’s motion is scheduled to be heard by the Bankruptcy Court on February 16, 2021. The Company has significant concerns with the feasibility of the Atlantic Park Proposal and has concluded that at this time the transactions contemplated under the Atlantic Park Proposal are not reasonably likely to lead to a higher and better alternative plan of reorganization as compared to the Plan. The Equity Committee has also filed a revised proposed plan of reorganization and disclosure statement in connection with the Atlantic Park Proposal with the Bankruptcy Court on February 15, 2021. The disclosures in this Annual Report on Form 10-K should be read in the context of the Chapter 11 Cases. All documents filed with the Bankruptcy Court are available for inspection at the Office of the Clerk of the Bankruptcy Court or online (a) for a fee on the Bankruptcy Court’s website at www.ecf.uscourts.gov and (b) free of charge on the website of the Debtors’ claims and noticing agent, Kurtzman Carson Consultants LLC at http://www.kccllc.net/garrettmotion. See Note 2 Reorganization and Chapter 11 Proceedings of the Notes to the Company’s Condensed Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements for additional information regarding the Chapter 11 Cases, the RSA, the Stalking Horse Purchase Agreement, the PSA, the ECBA, the Transaction and the DIP Credit Agreement. 4 BASIS OF PRESENTATION On October 1, 2018, Garrett Motion Inc. became an independent publicly-traded company through a pro rata distribution (the “Distribution”) by Honeywell International Inc. (“Former Parent” or “Honeywell”) of 100% of the then-outstanding shares of Garrett to Honeywell’s stockholders (the “Spin- Off”). Each Honeywell stockholder of record received one share of Garrett common stock for every 10 shares of Honeywell common stock held on the record date. Unless the context otherwise requires, references to “Garrett,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and “the Company” in this Annual Report on Form 10-K refer to Garrett Motion Inc. and its subsidiaries following the Spin-Off. This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains financial information that was derived partially from the consolidated financial statements and accounting records of Honeywell. The accompanying consolidated and combined financial statements of Garrett (“Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements”) reflect the consolidated and combined historical results of operations, financial position and cash flows of Garrett, for periods following the Spin-Off, and the Transportation Systems Business, for all periods prior to the Spin-Off, as it was historically managed in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Therefore, the historical consolidated and combined financial information may not be indicative of our future performance and does not necessarily reflect what our consolidated and combined results of operations, financial condition and cash flows would have been had the Business operated as a separate, publicly traded company during the entirety of the periods presented, particularly because of changes that we have experienced, and expect to continue to experience in the future, as a result of our separation from Honeywell, including changes in the financing, cash management, operations, cost structure and personnel needs of our business. Throughout this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we reference certain industry sources. While we believe the compound annual growth rate (“CAGR”) and other projections of the industry sources referenced in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are reasonable, forecasts based upon such data involve inherent uncertainties, and actual outcomes are subject to change based upon various factors beyond our control. All data from industry sources is provided as of the latest practicable date prior to the filing of this Annual Report on Form 10-K and may be subject to change. 5 CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements.

Business Our Company PART I Our Company designs, manufactures and sells highly engineered turbocharger and electric-boosting technologies for light and commercial vehicle original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and the global vehicle independent aftermarket as well as automotive software solutions. These OEMs in turn ship to consumers globally. We are a global technology leader with significant expertise in delivering products across gasoline, diesel, natural gas and electric (hybrid and fuel cell) powertrains. These products are key enablers for fuel economy and emission standards compliance. Our products are highly engineered for each individual powertrain platform, requiring close collaboration with our customers in the earliest years of powertrain and new vehicle design. Our turbocharging and electric-boosting products enable our customers to improve vehicle performance while addressing continually evolving and converging regulations that mandate significant increases in fuel efficiency and reductions in exhaust emissions worldwide. We offer light vehicle gasoline, light vehicle diesel and commercial vehicle turbochargers that enhance vehicle performance, fuel economy and drivability. A turbocharger provides an engine with a controlled and pressurized air intake, which intensifies and improves the combustion of fuel to increase the amount of power sent through the transmission and to improve the efficiency and exhaust emissions of the engine. Market penetration of light vehicles with a turbocharger is expected to increase from approximately 51% in 2020 to approximately 55% by 2025, according to IHS Markit (“IHS”), which we believe will allow the turbocharger market to grow at a faster rate than overall automobile production. Building on our expertise in turbocharger technology, we have also developed electric-boosting technologies targeted for use in electrified powertrains, primarily hybrid and fuel cell vehicles. Our products include electric turbochargers and electric compressors that provide more responsive driving and optimized fuel economy in electrified vehicles. Our early-stage and collaborative relationships with our global OEM customer base have enabled us to increase our knowledge of customer needs for vehicle safety, predictive maintenance, and advanced controllers to develop new connected and software-enabled products. In addition, we have emerging opportunities in technologies, products and services that support the growing connected vehicle market, which include software focused on automotive cybersecurity and integrated vehicle health management (“IVHM”). Our focus is developing solutions for enhancing cybersecurity of connected vehicles, as well as in-vehicle monitoring to provide maintenance diagnostics, which reduce vehicle downtime and repair costs. For example, our Intrusion Detection and Prevention System uses anomaly detection technology that functions like virus detection software to perform real-time data analysis to ensure every message received by a car’s computer is valid. Our IVHM tools detect intermittent faults and anomalies within complex vehicle systems to provide a more thorough understanding of the real-time health of a vehicle system and enable customers to fix faults before they actually occur. We are collaborating with tier-one suppliers on automotive cybersecurity software solutions and with several major OEMs on IVHM technologies. Our comprehensive portfolio of turbocharger, electric-boosting and connected vehicle technologies is supported by our five research and development (“R&D”) centers, 11 close-to-customer engineering facilities and 13 factories, which are strategically located around the world. Our operations in each region have self-sufficient sales, engineering and production capabilities, making us a nimble local competitor, while our standardized manufacturing processes, global supply chain, worldwide technology R&D and size enable us to deliver the scale benefits, technology leadership, cross- regional support and extensive resources of a global enterprise. In high-growth regions, including China and India, we have established a local footprint, which has helped us secure strong positions with in-region OEM customers who demand localized engineering and manufacturing content but also require the capabilities and track record of a global leader. We also sell our technologies in the global aftermarket through our distribution network of more than 200 distributors covering 160 countries. Through this network, we provide approximately 5,300 part-numbers and products to service garages across the globe. Garrett is a leading brand in the independent aftermarket for both service replacement turbochargers as well as high-end performance and racing turbochargers. We estimate that over 110 million vehicles on the road today utilize our products, further supporting our global aftermarket business. 9 Leading technology, continuous innovation, product performance and OEM engineering collaboration are central to our customer value proposition and a core part of our culture and heritage. In 1962, we introduced a turbocharger for a mass-produced passenger vehicle. Since then, we have introduced many other notable technologies in mass-production vehicles, such as turbochargers with variable geometry turbines, dual-boost compressors, ball-bearing rotors and electronically actuated controls, all of which vastly improve engine response when accelerating at low speeds and increase power at higher speeds and enable significant improvements in overall engine fuel economy and exhaust emissions for both gasoline and diesel engines. Our portfolio today includes approximately 1,600 patents and patents pending. Reorganization and Chapter 11 Proceedings On the Petition Date, the Debtors each entered into the RSA and filed a voluntary petition for relief under the Bankruptcy Code in the Bankruptcy Court. The Chapter 11 Cases are being jointly administered under the caption “In re: Garrett Motion Inc., 20-12212.” On the Petition Date, certain of the Debtors also entered into the Stalking Horse Purchase Agreement with the Stalking Horse Bidder and AMP U.S. Holdings, LLC, each affiliates of KPS, pursuant to which the Stalking Horse Bidder agreed to purchase, subject to the terms and conditions contained therein, substantially all of the assets of the Debtors. The Stalking Horse Purchase Agreement constituted a “stalking horse” bid that was subject to higher and better offers by third parties in accordance with the bidding procedures approved by the Bankruptcy Court in the Bidding Procedures Order. The Bidding Procedures Order permitted third parties to submit competing proposals for the purchase and/or reorganization of the Debtors and approved stalking horse protections for the Stalking Horse Bidder. On the Petition Date, we were notified by the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) that, as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases, and in accordance with Section 802.01D of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, that NYSE had commenced proceedings to delist our common stock from the NYSE. The NYSE indefinitely suspended trading of our common stock on September 21, 2020. We determined not to appeal the NYSE’s determination. On October 8, 2020, the NYSE filed a Form 25-NSE with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which removed our common stock from listing and registration on the NYSE effective as of the opening of business on October 19, 2020. The delisting of our common stock from NYSE has and could continue to limit the liquidity of our common stock, increase the volatility in the price of our common stock, and hinder our ability to raise capital. In accordance with the Bidding Procedures Order, the Debtors held the Auction at which they solicited and received higher and better offers from KPS and the OWJ Group. In addition to the bids received at the Auction from KPS and the OWJ Group, the Debtors also received a transaction proposal in parallel from the CO Group. The Auction was completed on January 8, 2021, at which point the Debtors filed with the Bankruptcy Court (i) an auction notice noting that a bid received from KPS was the successful bid at the Auction but that the Debtors were still considering the proposal from the CO Group, (ii) the Plan and Disclosure Statement. On January 11, 2021, the Debtors, having determined that the proposal from the CO Group was a higher and better proposal than the successful bid of KPS at the Auction, entered into the PSA and announced their intention to pursue a restructuring transaction with the CO Group. As a result of the entry into the PSA, (i) the Debtors filed a supplemental auction notice with the Bankruptcy Court on January 11, 2021 describing the Debtors’ determination to proceed with the Transaction, (ii) the Debtors filed a revised Plan and related revised Disclosure Statement with the Bankruptcy Court on January 22, 2021 to implement the Transaction and (iii) the Stalking Horse Purchase Agreement became terminable, following which, on January 15, 2021, the Stalking Horse Bidder terminated the Stalking Horse Purchase Agreement and the Debtors subsequently paid a termination payment of $63 million and an expense reimbursement payment of $15.7 million to the Stalking Horse Bidder pursuant to the terms of the Stalking Horse Purchase Agreement and the Bidding Procedures Order. Under the terms of the PSA and the Transaction, the Plan, if confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, will include a global settlement with Honeywell providing for (a) the full and final satisfaction, settlement, release, and discharge of all liabilities under or related to the indemnification and reimbursement agreement with Honeywell entered into on September 12, 2018 (the “Honeywell Indemnity Agreement”), that certain Indemnification Guarantee Agreement, dated as of September 27, 2018 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time), by and among Honeywell ASASCO 2 Inc. as payee, Garrett ASASCO as payor, and certain subsidiary guarantors as defined therein (the “Guarantee Agreement,” and together with the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement, the “Indemnity Agreements”) and the tax matters agreement with Honeywell, dated September 12, 2018 (the “Tax Matters Agreement”) and (b) the dismissal with prejudice of the lawsuits against Honeywell relating to the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement and the Tax Matters Agreement (the “Honeywell Litigation”) in exchange for (x) a $375 million cash payment by the company at emergence from chapter 11 (“Emergence”) and (y) new Series B Preferred Stock issued by the Company payable in installments of $35 million in 2022, and $100 million annually 2023-2030 (the “Series B Preferred Stock”). 10 In accordance with the terms of the PSA, on January 22, 2021, the Debtors’ entered into the EBCA with the Equity Backstop Parties, pursuant to which, among other things, the Company will conduct the Rights Offering and each Equity Backstop Party committed to (i) exercise its rights, as a stockholder of the Company, to purchase in the Rights Offering shares of the Series A Preferred Stock and (ii) purchase, on a pro rata basis (in accordance with percentages set forth in the EBCA), shares of Series A Preferred Stock which were offered but not subscribed for in the Rights Offering. On February 15, 2021, the Debtors and the CO Group agreed with certain of the Consenting Lenders to amend and restate the PSA so as to, among other things, add certain of the Consenting Lenders as parties thereto supporting the Plan. The Debtors’ entry into and performance and obligations under the PSA and the EBCA are subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court and other customary closing conditions. On February 9, 2021, the Equity Committee filed an objection to the Debtors’ motion seeking authority to enter into and perform under the PSA and the ECBA. A hearing on the matter is scheduled to take place in the Bankruptcy Court on February 16, 2021. There can be no assurances that the Debtors will obtain the approval of the Bankruptcy Court and complete the Transaction. On January 24, 2021, representatives of the Equity Committee submitted a restructuring term sheet for the Atlantic Park Proposal. The Equity Committee subsequently filed with the Bankruptcy Court on February 5, 2021, a proposed plan of reorganization and related disclosure statement with respect to the Atlantic Park Proposal. The transactions contemplated under the Atlantic Park Proposal have been proposed as an alternative to the transactions contemplated under the Plan. In connection with the Atlantic Park Proposal, the Equity Committee filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court seeking to modify the Debtors’ exclusive periods to file and solicit votes on a Chapter 11 plan. The Equity Committee’s motion is scheduled to be heard by the Bankruptcy Court on February 16, 2021. The Company has significant concerns with the feasibility of the Atlantic Park Proposal and has concluded that at this time the transactions contemplated under the Atlantic Park Proposal are not reasonably likely to lead to a higher and better alternative plan of reorganization as compared to the Plan. For additional information regarding the Chapter 11 Cases, reorganization, the PSA, the ECBA and the Transaction, see “Explanatory Note” and Note 2, Reorganization and Chapter 11 Proceedings of the Notes to the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic The ongoing global COVID-19 pandemic has created unparalleled challenges for the auto industry in the short-term. In the three months ended March 31, 2020, our manufacturing facility in Wuhan, China was shut down for six weeks in February and March and we saw diminished production in our Shanghai, China facility for that same time period, which adversely impacted our net sales for the period. During the second quarter, our facilities in China re-opened, however our manufacturing facilities in Mexicali, Mexico and Pune, India were shut down for five weeks and our manufacturing facilities in Europe operated at reduced capacity. During this time, we implemented a set of hygiene and safety measures that complied with, and in many places exceeded local regulations in order to protect our employees while maintaining commitments vis-a-vis our customers. This combined with the fast recovery observed in all geographies has enabled us to ramp up production in most of our production sites to normal levels in the third quarter of 2020. This trend has been confirmed in the fourth quarter, despite the resurgence of infection rates in U.S. and European Union. If the COVID-19 pandemic drives new lockdown measures impacting our manufacturing facilities, our facilities may be forced to shut down or operate at reduced capacity again. Additional or continued facilities closures or reductions in operation could significantly reduce our production volumes and have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Analyst consensus for the full year 2020 anticipates a 17% decrease in global light vehicle production, and for a 10% decline in commercial vehicle production, a larger drop than during the financial crisis in 2008 and 2009. In 2021, a partial recovery is expected with a rebound of light vehicle production of 14% and commercial vehicles of 6%. As a result, we estimate that a contraction of approximately 13% for the combined light and commercial vehicle turbocharger industry volume occurred in 2020 and we expect a rebound of 13% in 2021. We have prepared contingency plans for multiple scenarios that we believe will allow us to react swiftly to changes in customer demand while protecting Garrett’s long-term growth potential. The supplies needed for our operations were generally available throughout 2020. In limited circumstances, certain suppliers experienced financial distress during 2020, resulting in supply disruptions. However, during 2020, we implemented new procedures for monitoring of supplier risks associated with COVID-19 and the Chapter 11 Cases and believe we have substantially addressed such risks with manageable economic impacts 11 including use of Premium Freight or adjusted payment terms that are limited in time. In addition, we have implemented cost control measures and cash management actions, including: • • • • • • Postponing capital expenditures; Optimizing working capital requirements; Lowering discretionary spending; Flexing organizational costs by implementing short-term working schemes; Reducing temporary workforce and contract service workers; and Restricting external hiring. The following charts show our percentage of revenues by geographic region and product line for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 and the percentage change from the prior year comparable period. Revenue Summary By Geography By Product-line • • We are a global business that generated revenues of approximately $3 billion in 2020. In 2020, light vehicle products (products for passenger cars, SUVs, light trucks, and other products) accounted for approximately 69% of our revenues. Commercial vehicle products (products for on-highway trucks and off-highway trucks, construction, agriculture and power- generation machines) accounted for 18%. 12 In 2020, our OEM sales contributed approximately 87% of our revenues while our aftermarket and other products contributed 13%. Approximately 51% of our 2020 revenues came from sales shipped from Europe, 33% from sales shipped from Asia and 15% from sales shipped from North America. For more information, see Note 26 Concentrations of the Notes to our Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. • • Our Industry We compete in the global turbocharger market for gasoline, diesel and natural gas engines; in the electric- boosting market for electrified (hybrid and fuel cell) vehicle powertrains; and in the emerging connected vehicle software market. As vehicles become more electrified, our electric-boosting products use principles similar to our turbochargers to further optimize air intake and thus further enhance performance, fuel economy and exhaust emissions with the help of an integrated high-speed electric motor. By using a turbocharger or electric-boosting technology, an OEM can deploy smaller, lighter powertrains with better fuel economy and exhaust emissions while delivering the same power and acceleration as larger, heavier powertrains. As such, turbochargers have become one of the most highly effective technologies for helping global OEMs meet increasingly stricter emission standards. Global Turbocharger market The global turbocharger market includes turbochargers for new light and commercial vehicles as well as turbochargers for replacement use in the global aftermarket. According to IHS and other experts, the global turbocharger market consisted of approximately 44 million unit sales with an estimated total value of approximately $10 billion in 2020. Within the global turbocharger market, light vehicles accounted for approximately 90% of total unit volume and commercial vehicles accounted for the remaining 10%. Consultants project that the turbocharger production volume will grow at a CAGR of approximately 3% from 2019 through 2025, driven mainly by turbochargers for light vehicle gasoline engines and continued slow growth for commercial vehicles, offset by a decline in diesel turbochargers given a decline in diesel powertrains, particularly for light vehicles. This annual sales estimate would add approximately 372 million new turbocharged vehicles on the road globally between 2019 and 2025. Key trends affecting our industry Current global economic conditions due to COVID-19 have adversely affected and may continue to adversely affect many industries including the Automotive sector. Analysts estimate that automotive industry revenue dropped 11% in 2020, compared to 2019, according to Standard & Poor’s Capital IQ. According to the same dataset, other industries that drive, in particular, Off-Highway commercial vehicle turbo demand, such as Oil and Gas (24%), Railroads (16%) or Marine (2%) recorded drops in industry revenue over the same period. Global GDP growth, while restarting in second half of 2020 on the back of global government stimulus programs, will remain 5 percentage points below pre-crisis forecasts at least until 2023, according to the OECD. Consequently, IHS reduced its light vehicle production volume forecast for 2025 from 102 million units that they forecasted in 2019 to 95 million units in their January 2021 light vehicle industry production volume forecast. While this resets the volume outlook for the automotive industry, the underlying growth drivers for the turbo industry remain unchanged: Growth in the overall vehicle industry (albeit from a lower base), increasingly tight fuel efficiency and emission standards, and growing turbocharger penetration. Growth in overall vehicle production. After a decrease of 17% in Light Vehicle production and 10% in Commercial Vehicle production in 2020, consultants expect a stabilization in 2021. The global automotive industry is expected to reach pre-crisis volumes in 2022-2023. The shift from pure gasoline and diesel internal combustion engines to hybridized powertrains is expected to continue in response to increasingly strict fuel efficiency and regulatory standards. In parallel, the share of pure electric vehicles is expected to continue to increase from a low base as technology and supporting infrastructure continue to improve. Global vehicle fuel efficiency and emissions standards. OEMs are facing increasingly strict constraints for vehicle fuel efficiency and emissions standards globally. Regulatory authorities in key vehicle markets such as the United States, the European Union, China, Japan, and Korea have instituted regulations that require sustained and significant improvements in CO2, NOx and particulate matter vehicle emissions. OEMs are required to evaluate and adopt various 13 solutions to address these stricter standards. Turbochargers allow OEMs to reduce engine size without sacrificing vehicle performance, thereby increasing fuel efficiency and decreasing harmful emissions. Furthermore, turbochargers allow more precise “air control” over both engine intake and exhaust conditions such as gas pressures, flows and temperatures, enabling optimization of the combustion process. This combustion optimization is critical to engine efficiency, exhaust emissions, power and transient response and enables such concepts as exhaust gas recirculation for diesel engines and Miller- cycle operation for gasoline engines. Consequently, we believe turbocharging will continue to be a key technology for automakers to meet future tough fuel economy and emissions standards without sacrificing performance. Turbocharger penetration. The utilization of turbochargers and electric-boosting technologies on vehicle powertrain systems is one of the most cost-effective solutions to address stricter standards, and OEMs are increasing their adoption of these technologies. IHS and other industry sources expect total turbocharger penetration to increase globally from approximately 53% in 2020 to approximately 56% by 2025. IHS forecasts particularly strong turbocharger penetration growth for gasoline turbochargers, expecting an increase from approximately 44% in 2020 to 56% in 2025. Medium-Term Powertrain Trends Source: IHS Engine size and complexity. In order to address stricter fuel economy standards, OEMs have used turbochargers to reduce the average engine size on their vehicles over time without compromising performance. Stricter pollutants emissions standards (primarily for NOx and particulates) have driven higher turbocharger adoption as well, which we believe will continue in the future, with a predicted total automotive turbocharger sales volume CAGR of 3% between 2019 and 2025, in an industry with a predicted total automobile sales volume CAGR of approximately 1% over the same period, in each case according to IHS and other industry sources. In addition, increasingly demanding fuel economy standards require continuous increases in turbocharger technology content (e.g., variable geometry, electronic actuation, multiple stages, ball bearings, electrical control, etc.) which results in steady increases in average turbocharger content per vehicle. Powertrain electrification. To address stricter fuel economy standards, OEMs also have been increasing the electrification of their vehicle offerings, primarily with the addition of hybrid vehicles, which have powertrains equipped with a gasoline or diesel internal combustion engine in combination with an electric motor. IHS estimates that hybrid vehicles globally will grow from a total of approximately 5.3 million vehicles in 2019 to 29.5 million vehicles by 2025, representing a CAGR of 33%. The electrified powertrain of hybrid vehicles enables the usage of highly synergistic electric- boosting technologies which augment standard turbochargers with electrically assisted boosting and electrical-generation capability. Furthermore, the application of electric boosting extends the requirement for engineering collaboration with OEMs to include electrical integration, software controls, and advanced sensing. Overall, this move to electric boosting further increases the role and value of turbocharging in improving vehicle fuel economy and exhaust emissions. OEMs are also investing in full battery-electric vehicles to comply with increasingly tight regulatory targets across regions. IHS and other industry sources expect that they will compose 10% of total light and commercial vehicle production globally by 2025. Consumer adoption hinges on future battery cost – hence vehicle price - reductions, 14 increases in power density – hence driving range, and shorter recharging times. As OEMs strive to solve these issues, they are increasing investment in hydrogen fuel cell powered electric vehicles for demanding applications requiring long range, especially in the commercial vehicle space. These vehicles, like battery electric vehicles, have fully electric motor powertrains, but they rely on the hydrogen fuel cell to generate the required electricity. The hydrogen fuel cell also requires advanced electric-boosting technology for optimization of size and efficiency. Connected vehicles, autonomous vehicles, and shared vehicles. In addition to powertrain evolution, the market for connected vehicle services is growing rapidly. According to Strategy&, a consulting firm, this market is expected to grow 34% per annum from approximately $8 billion in 2020 to approximately $35 billion in 2025. Our IVHM, predictive maintenance, diagnostics and cybersecurity tools address this market. Their adoption should increase as advanced driver assistance features and ultimately autonomous driving increase requirements for vehicle functional safety. Simultaneously, our cybersecurity solutions protect those vehicles against outside interference to ensure correct functionality. Vehicle ownership in China and other high-growth markets. Vehicle ownership in China and other emerging markets remains well below ownership levels in developed markets and will be a key driver of future vehicle production. At the same time, these markets are following the lead of developed countries by instituting stricter emission standards. Growth in production volume and greater penetration by large global OEMs in these markets, along with evolving emission standards and increasing fuel economy and vehicle performance demands, is driving increasing turbocharger penetration in high- growth regions. Our Competitive Strengths We believe that we differentiate ourselves through the following competitive strengths: Global and broad market leadership We are a global leader in the $10 billion turbocharger industry. We believe we will continue to benefit from the increased adoption of turbochargers, as well as our global technology leadership, comprehensive portfolio, continuous product innovation and our deep-seated relationships with all global OEMs. We maintain a leadership position across all vehicle types, engine types and regions, including: Light Vehicles. • • • Gasoline: The global adoption of turbochargers by OEMs on gasoline engines has increased rapidly from approximately 14% in 2013 to approximately 40% in 2019 and is forecasted by IHS to increase to 56% by 2025. We have launched a leading modern 1.5L variable geometry turbo (“VNT”) gasoline application, which we believe to be among the first with a major OEM, and we expect to see increasing adoption of this technology in years to come. Key to our strategy for gasoline growth is to leverage our technology strengths in high- temperature materials and variable geometry as well as our scale, global footprint and in-market capabilities to meet the volume demands of global OEMs. Diesel: We have a long history of technology leadership in diesel engine turbochargers. Despite diesel market weakness for some vehicle segments, the majority of our diesel turbochargers revenue comes from heavier and bigger vehicles like SUVs, pickup trucks and light commercial vehicles (such as delivery vans), which remain a stable part of the diesel market. Diesel maintains a unique advantage in terms of fuel consumption, hence cost of ownership, and towing capacity makes it still the powertrain of choice for heavier vehicle applications. Diesel also remains essential for OEMs to meet their CO2 fleet average regulatory target going forward, as diesel vehicles produce approximately 10-15% less CO2, on average, than gasoline vehicles. Electrified vehicles. We provide a comprehensive portfolio of turbocharger and electric-boosting technologies to manufacturers of hybrid- electric and fuel cell vehicles. OEMs have increased their adoption of these electrified technologies given regulatory standards and consumer demands driving an expected CAGR globally of approximately 33% from 2019 to 2025, according to IHS. Similar to turbochargers for gasoline and diesel engines, turbochargers for hybrid vehicles are an essential component of maximizing fuel efficiency and overall engine performance. Our products provide OEMs with solutions that further optimize engine performance and position us well to serve OEMs as they add more electrified vehicles into their fleets. 15 Commercial vehicles. Our Company traces its roots to the 1950s when we helped develop a turbocharged commercial vehicle for Caterpillar. We have maintained our strategic relationship with key commercial vehicle OEMs for over 60 years as well as market-leading positions across the commercial vehicle markets for both on- and off-highway use. Our products improve engine performance and lower emissions on trucks, buses, agriculture equipment, construction equipment and mining equipment with engine sizes ranging 1.8L to 105L. High-growth regions. We have a strong track record serving global and emerging OEMs, including customers in China and India, with an in- market, for-market strategy and operate full R&D and three manufacturing facilities in the high-growth regions that serve light and commercial vehicle OEMs. Our local presence in high-growth regions has helped us win business with key international and domestic Chinese OEMs, and we grew significantly faster than the vehicle production in these regions between 2013 and 2019. Strong and collaborative relationships with leading OEMs globally We supply our products to more than 60 OEMs globally. Our top ten customers accounted for approximately 56% of net sales and our largest customer represented approximately 10% of our net sales in 2020. With over 60 years in the turbocharger industry, we have developed strong capabilities working with all major OEMs. We consistently meet their stringent design, performance and quality standards while achieving capacity and delivery timelines that are critical for customer success. Our track record of successful collaborations, as demonstrated by our strong client base and our ability to successfully launch approximately 100 product applications annually, is well recognized. For example, we received a 2017 Automotive News PACE™ Innovation Partnership Award in supporting Volkswagen’s first launch of an industry-leading VNT turbocharged gasoline engine, which is just one example of our strong collaborative relationships with OEMs. Our regional research, development and manufacturing capabilities are a key advantage in helping us to supply OEMs as they expand geographically and shift towards standardized engines and vehicle platforms globally. Global aftermarket platform We have an estimated installed base of over 110 million vehicles that utilize our products through our global network of more than 200 distributors covering 160 countries. Our Garrett aftermarket brand has strong recognition across distributors and garages globally, and is known for boosting performance, quality and reliability. Our aftermarket business has historically provided a stable stream of revenue supported by our large installed base. As turbo penetration rates continue to increase, we expect that our installed base and aftermarket opportunity will grow. Highly-engineered portfolio with continuous product innovation We have led the revolution in turbocharging technology over the last 60 years and maintain a leading technology portfolio of approximately 1,600 patents and patents pending. We have a globally deployed team of more than 1,250 engineers across five R&D centers and 11 close-to-customer engineering centers. Our engineers have led the mainstream commercialization of several leading turbocharger innovations, including variable geometry turbines, dual-boost compressors, ball-bearing rotors, electrically actuated controls and air-bearing electric compressors for hydrogen fuel cells. We maintain a culture of continuous product innovation, introducing about ten new technologies per year and upgrading our existing key product lines approximately every 3 years. Outside of our turbocharger product lines, we apply this culture of continuous innovation to meet the needs of our customers in new areas, particularly in connected automotive technologies. We are developing solutions, including IVHM and cybersecurity software solutions, that leverage our knowledge of vehicle powertrains and experience working closely with OEM manufacturers. Global and low cost manufacturing footprint with operational excellence Our geographic footprint locates R&D, engineering and manufacturing capabilities close to our customers, enabling us to tailor technologies and products for the specific vehicle types sold in each geographic market. In all regions where we operate, we leverage low-cost sourcing through our robust supplier development program, which continually works to develop new suppliers that are able to meet our specific quality, productivity and cost requirements. We now source more than two-thirds of our materials from low-cost countries and believe our high-quality, low-cost supplier network to be a significant competitive advantage. We have invested heavily to bring differentiated local capabilities to our customers in high-growth regions, including China and India. 16 In 2020 we manufactured more than 87% of our products in low-cost countries, including seven manufacturing facilities in China, India, Mexico, Romania and Slovakia. We have a long-standing culture of lean manufacturing excellence and continuous productivity improvement. We believe global uniformity and operational excellence across facilities is a key competitive advantage in our industry given that OEM engine platforms are often designed centrally but manufactured locally, requiring suppliers to meet the exact same specifications across all locations. Our Growth Strategies The Debtors, including Garrett, filed for relief under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in September 2020, primarily with the intent to restructure our balance sheet. Given the Company’s operational performance prior to the Petition Date, our day-to-day operations have been largely unaffected. If we are able to timely restructure our balance sheet, and accordingly emerge from the Chapter 11 Cases, Garrett expects to continue to invest in innovative technologies that address the needs of our customers in the ongoing auto industry transformation. This continued investment into differentiated technology, coupled with our relentless focus on deep customer relations and our global capabilities, will allow us to drive the following business strategies: Strengthen market leadership across core powertrain technologies We are focused on strengthening our market position in light vehicles: • • Gasoline turbochargers, which historically lagged adoption of diesel turbochargers, are expected to grow at an 6% annual CAGR from 2019 to 2025, according to IHS, exceeding the growth of diesel turbochargers. We expect to benefit from this higher growth given the gasoline platforms we have been awarded over the past several years. We have launched the first modern 1.5L VNT gasoline application with a major OEM and we expect to see increasing adoption of this technology in years to come. Key to our strategy for gasoline growth is our plan to leverage our technology strengths in high temperature materials and variable geometry technologies as well as our scale, global footprint and in-region capabilities to meet the volume demands of global OEMs. We believe growth in our share of the diesel turbochargers market will be driven by new product introductions focused on emissions- enforcement technologies and supported by our favorable positioning with large vehicles and high-growth regions within this market. The more stringent emissions standards require higher turbocharger technology content such as variable geometry, 2-stage systems, advanced bearings and materials which increase our content per vehicle. We expect to grow our commercial vehicle business through new product introductions and targeted platform wins with key on-highway customers and underserved OEMs. Strengthen our penetration of electrified vehicle boosting technologies We stand to benefit from the increased adoption of hybrid-electric and fuel cell vehicles and the increased need for turbochargers associated with increased sales volumes for these engine types. IHS estimates that the global production of electrified vehicles will increase from approximately 7 million vehicles in 2019 to approximately 42 million vehicles by 2025, representing an annualized growth rate of approximately 34%. OEMs will need to further improve engine performance for their increasingly electrified offerings, and our comprehensive portfolio of turbocharger and electric-boosting technologies are designed to help OEMs do so. We expect to continue to invest in product innovations and new technologies and believe that we are well positioned to continue to be a technology-leader in the propulsion of electrified vehicles. Increase market position in high-growth regions In 2020, after a steep drop in the first quarter due to strict lockdowns, vehicle production in China has experienced a very strong rebound which has partly compensated for the decline in the first quarter, with a full year drop of 5%, compared to 20%+ in other regions. IHS expects vehicle production in China to be stable next year. We plan to continue to strengthen our relationships with OEMs in high-growth, emerging regions by demonstrating our technology leadership through our local research, development and manufacturing capabilities. Our local footprint is expected to continue to provide a strong competitive edge in high-growth regions due to our ability to work closely with OEMs throughout all stages of the product lifecycle including aftermarket support. For example, in China, our research 17 center in Shanghai, our manufacturing facilities in Wuhan and Shanghai and our more than 984 employees support our differentiated end-to-end capabilities and we believe will continue to support key platform wins in the Chinese market. Our operations in China are expected to continue to benefit us as OEMs build global platforms in low cost regions. Our commitment to providing high-touch technology support to OEMs has allowed us to be recognized as a local player in other key high-growth regions, such as India. Grow our aftermarket business We have an opportunity to strengthen our global network of more than 200 distributors in 160 countries by deepening our channel penetration, leveraging our well-recognized Garrett brand, utilizing new online technologies for customer engagement and sales, and widening the product portfolio. For example, in 2019 we launched a global web-based platform providing self-service tools aimed at connecting garage technicians. In 2020 the platform attracted 170 thousand visitors and 22,000 registered garage technicians who used the platform to complete Garrett self-learning and certification steps. Drive continuous product innovation across connected vehicles We are actively investing in software and services that leverage our capabilities in powertrains, vehicle performance management, and electrical/mechanical design to capitalize on the growth relating to connected vehicles. More than 85% of passenger vehicles sold in Europe and the United States and almost 50% of vehicles sold in China in 2020 were estimated to be connected in some way to the Internet according to Strategy&, a consultancy firm. According to the same report, that number is expected to reach 100% in Europe and the United States and >90% in China by 2025. Building on the software and connected vehicle capabilities of our Former Parent, we have assembled a team of engineers, software and technical experts and have opened new design centers in North America, India and Czech Republic. We continue to conduct research to determine key areas of the market where we are best positioned to leverage our existing technology platforms and capabilities to serve our customers. We execute a portion of our connectivity investment in collaboration with OEMs and other Tier 1 suppliers and have multiple early-stage trials with customers underway. Research, Development and Intellectual Property We maintain technical engineering centers in major automotive production regions of the world to develop and provide advanced products, process and manufacturing support to all of our manufacturing sites, and to provide our customers with local engineering capabilities and design developments on a global basis. As of December 31, 2020, we employed approximately 1,250 engineers. Our total R&D expenses were $111 million, $129 million and $128 million for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Additionally, the Company incurs engineering-related expenses which are also included in Cost of goods sold of $13 million, $5 million and $10 million for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018. We currently hold approximately 1,600 patents and patents pending. Our current patents are expected to expire between 2021 and 2040. While no individual patent or group of patents, taken alone, is considered material to our business, taken in the aggregate, these patents provide meaningful protection for our intellectual property. Materials The most significant raw materials we use to manufacture our products are grey iron, aluminum, stainless steel and a nickel-, iron- and chromium- based alloy. As of December 31, 2020, we have not experienced any significant shortage of raw materials and normally do not carry inventories of such raw materials in excess of those reasonably required to meet our production and shipping schedules. Customers Our global customer base includes nine of the ten largest light vehicle OEMs and nine of the ten largest commercial vehicle engine makers. 18 Our ten largest applications in 2020 were with seven different OEMs. OEM sales were approximately 87% of our 2020 revenues while our aftermarket and other products contributed 13%. Our largest customer is Ford Motor Company (“Ford”). In 2020, 2019 and 2018, Ford accounted for 10%, 12%, and 13%, respectively, of our total sales. Supply Relationships with Our Customers We typically supply products to our OEM customers through “open” purchase orders, which are generally governed by terms and conditions negotiated with each OEM. Although the terms and conditions vary from customer to customer, they typically contemplate a relationship under which our customers are not required to purchase a minimum amount of product from us. These relationships typically extend over the life of the related engine platform. Prices are negotiated with respect to each business award, which may be subject to adjustments under certain circumstances, such as commodity or foreign exchange escalation/de-escalation clauses or for cost reductions achieved by us. The terms and conditions typically provide that we are subject to a warranty on the products supplied. We may also be obligated to share in all or a part of recall costs if the OEM recalls its vehicles for defects attributable to our products. Individual purchase orders are terminable for cause or non-performance and, in most cases, upon our insolvency and certain change of control events. In addition, many of our OEM customers have the option to terminate for convenience on certain programs, which permits our customers to impose pressure on pricing during the life of the vehicle program, and issue purchase contracts for less than the duration of the vehicle program, which potentially reduces our profit margins and increases the risk of our losing future sales under those purchase contracts. We manufacture, and ship based on customer release schedules, normally provided on a weekly basis, which can vary due to cyclical automobile production or inventory levels throughout the supply chain. Although customer programs typically extend to future periods, and although there is an expectation that we will supply certain levels of OEM production during such future periods, customer agreements including applicable terms and conditions do not necessarily constitute firm orders. Firm orders are generally limited to specific and authorized customer purchase order releases placed with our manufacturing and distribution centers for actual production and order fulfillment. Firm orders are typically fulfilled as promptly as possible from the conversion of available raw materials, sub- components and work-in-process inventory for OEM orders and from current on-hand finished goods inventory for aftermarket orders. The dollar amount of such purchase order releases on hand and not processed at any point in time is not believed to be significant based upon the time frame involved. Regulatory and Environmental Compliance We are subject to the requirements of environmental and health and safety laws and regulations in each country in which we operate. These include, among other things, laws regulating air emissions, water discharge, hazardous materials and waste management. We have an environmental management structure designed to facilitate and support our compliance with these requirements globally. Although it is our intent to comply with all such requirements and regulations, we cannot provide assurance that we are at all times in compliance. Environmental requirements are complex, change frequently and have tended to become more stringent over time. Accordingly, we cannot assure that environmental requirements will not change or become more stringent over time or that our eventual environmental costs and liabilities will not be material. Certain environmental laws assess liability on current or previous owners or operators of real property for the cost of removal or remediation of hazardous substances. At this time, we are involved in various stages of investigation and cleanup related to environmental remediation matters at certain of our present and former facilities. In addition, there may be soil or groundwater contamination at several of our properties resulting from historical, ongoing or nearby activities. As of December 31, 2020, the undiscounted reserve for environmental investigation and remediation was approximately $15.6 million. We do not currently possess sufficient information to reasonably estimate the amounts of environmental liabilities to be recorded upon future completion of studies, litigation or settlements, and we cannot determine either the timing or the amount of the ultimate costs associated with environmental matters, which could be material to our consolidated and combined results of operations and operating cash flows in the periods recognized or 19 paid. However, considering our past experience and existing reserves, we do not expect that environmental matters will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated and combined financial position. Additionally, pursuant to the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement, Garrett ASASCO is obligated to make payments to Honeywell in amounts equal to 90% of Honeywell’s asbestos-related liability payments and accounts payable, primarily related to the Bendix business in the United States, as well as certain environmental-related liability payments and accounts payable and non-United States asbestos-related liability payments and accounts payable, in each case related to legacy elements of the Business, including the legal costs of defending and resolving such liabilities, less 90% of Honeywell’s net insurance receipts and, as may be applicable, certain other recoveries associated with such liabilities. Pursuant to the terms of this Honeywell Indemnity Agreement, Garrett ASASCO is responsible for paying to Honeywell such amounts, up to a cap of an amount equal to the Euro-to-U.S. dollar exchange rate determined by Honeywell as of a date within two business days prior to the date of the Distribution (1.16977 USD = 1 EUR) equivalent of $175 million in respect of such liabilities arising in any given calendar year. The payments that Garrett ASASCO is required to make to Honeywell pursuant to the terms of the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement will not be deductible for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Honeywell Indemnity Agreement provides that the agreement will terminate upon the earlier of (x) December 31, 2048 or (y) December 31st of the third consecutive year during which certain amounts owed to Honeywell during each such year were less than $25 million as converted into Euros in accordance with the terms of the agreement. During the first quarter of 2020, Garrett ASASCO paid Honeywell the Euro-equivalent of $35 million in connection with the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement. Honeywell and Garrett agreed to defer the payment under the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement due May 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020 (the “Q2 Payment”), however we do not expect Garrett ASASCO to make payments to Honeywell under the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases. Under the terms of the PSA and the Transaction, the Plan, if confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, will include a global settlement with Honeywell providing for, among other things, (a) the full and final satisfaction, settlement, release, and discharge of all liabilities under or related to the Indemnity Agreements and the Tax Matters Agreement and (b) the dismissal with prejudice of the Honeywell Litigation in exchange for (x) a $375 million cash payment at Emergence and (y) new Series B Preferred Stock. Human Capital Corporate Responsibility WeCare4 Sustainability Approach Garrett’s mission to enable cleaner, safer vehicles is at the heart of its contribution to society. We develop solutions for the auto industry's most pressing sustainability issues, from emissions reduction to vehicle cybersecurity. Corporate responsibility is therefore a priority for the Company and its Board of Directors (the “Board”). The Board is responsible for promoting corporate responsibility and sustainability as well as monitoring adherence to Company standards. The Board manages oversight of sustainability through a Sustainability Committee, which is comprised of senior leaders in the business who assess and prioritize topics that are material for the business. Garrett articulates its commitments to social and environmental considerations in the communities in which it operates in the Company’s Code of Business Conduct, which can be found on our website at www.garrettmotion.com under “Investors – Leadership & Governance.” The Company intends to publish its first sustainability report in 2021 and to annually report progress on its sustainability commitments. 20 Human Capital Disclosure At Garrett, we place a high value on developing the right working environment and the right skillsets to advance our performance culture, support our growth strategy and ensure that the world at large can continue to benefit from breakthroughs in sustainable mobility. We invest in creating an inclusive, stimulating, and safe work environment where our employees can deliver their workplace best every day. As of December 31, 2020, we employed approximately 6,300 permanent employees and 2,300 temporary and contract workers globally. Diversity, equity and inclusion Diversity and Inclusion is one of Garrett’s four fundamentals. As such, we strive to ensure that our employees are each involved, supported, respected and connected. Embracing diverse thoughts and ideas through inclusion leads to a competitive advantage in the market, increased innovation as we generate new and better ideas, and customer-centric decision making. For several years, the Company has supported awareness activities such as unconscious bias training and cultural adaptation assessments to foster an inclusive culture. In 2020, the Company took several steps to strengthen its approach to diversity, equity and inclusion. These include: • • • • Review of existing diversity and inclusion initiatives; Publication of Garrett’s Diversity and Inclusion Policy; Re-definition of Garrett’s diversity and inclusion strategy and the global focus areas that are relevant for the Company; Setting the Company’s gender diversity ambition for 2025; 21 • • Nomination of 14 Diversity and Inclusion Champions in key countries and appointing Diversity and Inclusion Champions onto Garrett’s Global Diversity and Inclusion Council to ensure continuous alignment between local contexts and global strategy. Performance of a quantitative analysis of organizational compensation practices % of Female Representation in Garrett Workforce and Garrett 2025 Gender Diversity Ambition: % in total workforce % in Director and higher-level roles 18.9% 17.0% 19.7% 16.7% 20.4% 19.5% 25.0% 25.0% 2018 2019 2020 2025 Ambition Garrett’s Board of Directors had 38% female representation in 2020. Talent Management At Garrett, we encourage our employees to develop their skills and capabilities through a comprehensive Performance and Talent Management system. From annual goal-setting and performance reviews to learning opportunities for employees and leaders, Garrett helps its people align their professional experience with the Company’s business objectives and encourages them to take ownership of their development and career paths. Our learning environment offers employees access to more than 1,000 online trainings that address a wide range of functional competencies, technical skills, and human skills. Learning can be self-paced, while Garrett’s growing online peer-to-peer learning communities also allow employees to easily access courses specific to their function and to share materials and ideas on the topics of interest. Dedicated programs support Garrett’s emerging leaders, and these were successfully transformed into virtual learning academies in 2020. Approximately 25,000 hours of training was delivered in 2020. Garrett uses regular talent reviews to strengthen the Company’s internal development processes and to calibrate assessment of individual performance. Twice per year we hold succession planning meetings up to and including the Executive Level during which the bench-strength of teams are scrutinized and development plans for their talent are reviewed. Ahead of both annual and mid-year performance reviews, leaders hold calibration meetings to ensure that assessment ratings are consistent and fair amongst peer groups. Be well, work well Health and Safety World-class health and safety considerations are integrated into Garrett’s procedures and processes. Our management systems apply global standards that are currently transitioning from OHSAS 18001 to ISO 45001 and that provide protection of human health during normal and emergency situations. Compliance with our standards and local regulatory requirements is monitored through a company-wide audit process. The timely development and implementation of process improvement and corrective action plans are closely monitored. From early 2020, Garrett’s global Health and Safety team worked tirelessly to deliver and implement best practice safety guidelines relating to COVID-19. A global safety campaign was rolled out alongside dedicated employee newsletters to support the entire workforce with rules on staying safe and healthy. An ergonomics survey for employees working from home was also deployed to evaluate and drive any corrective measures required. The particular focus on the health of our employees to address the challenges posed by COVID-19 also provided a benefit in the focus on their safety with a further reduction in our Total Case Incident Rate (“TCIR”). TCIR is measured as the number of recordable injuries and illnesses multiplied by 200,000 and then that number is divided by the total number of hours worked by employees. TCIR decreased from 0.23 in 2018 to 0.11 in 2019 and then to 0.09 in 2020. 22 Compensation and benefits Garrett’s Rewards programs are rooted in our “Be well, work well” principle, and aim to support employees in achieving the right work-life balance. We invest significant time and resources in establishing compensation programs that are both competitive and equitable. We constantly evaluate our positions for market competitiveness and adjust when necessary with the goal of ensuring the retention of top talent and continuation of equitable pay practices. As part of our commitment to the well-being of our employees, Garrett offers an Employee Assistance Program (EAP). It is an external counseling service designed to assist employees with personal, family, or workplace matters. This service is confidential and is also available to each employee’s dependents. In late 2020, Garrett made a number of well-being resources available to all its connected employees, including useful links and techniques for managing mental and physical health, in addition to dedicated online events. Employee feedback, representation, and retention Garrett’s Performance Management system aims to ensure that two-way dialogue is ongoing between employees and managers, punctuated by both an annual and a mid-year review, which provides employees the opportunity to express their opinions and ideas in terms of their development goals and career aspirations. In 2020, Garrett piloted its first Employee Engagement Survey with a pilot program with one third of its workforce across three continents and achieved a very strong aggregated participation rate of 91%. The Company intends to roll out the Engagement Survey globally in 2021 and to set a baseline engagement score which will be monitored bi-annually. Garrett’s strategy is to build positive, direct, business-focused working relationships with all employees in order to drive business results. Garrett respects employees’ rights and their wish to be part of employee representative bodies including unions, work councils and employee forums. The Company understands the value of collective bargaining in its labor and employee relations strategy and the importance of trust in its working relationships. Approximately 40% of the Company’s permanent employees (including both full-time and part-time employees) are represented by unions and works councils under current collective bargaining agreements. Garrett closely monitors employee turnover to measure retention and define improvement actions as and where necessary. As of December 2020, the Company’s annual turnover for 2020 was 9.01%. Educating future innovators Garrett places a high value on Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (“STEM”) research and learning opportunities that provide young people with the skills needed to develop the future of sustainable mobility. The Company sponsors higher education institutes in several countries to further critical research in technical areas and provide students with opportunities to study STEM programs. Garrett’s Internship Programs enable students to connect theoretical knowledge with practical responsibilities in the spirit of ‘living laboratories’ during which they are encouraged to take ownership of business projects and define tactics to meet the project goals. Despite the challenging context of COVID-19, Garrett offered 100 internships in 10 countries in 2020. Garrett also runs a Graduate Program which in 2020 provided 11 graduates in 3 countries with a unique 2-year opportunity to gain experience and exposure to Garrett’s cutting-edge technologies while at the same time building their leadership skills in a fast-paced and professional work environment. The Company sponsors Formula SAE and Formula Student teams in several countries and in 2020 sponsored the European BEST Engineering Competition (EBEC), the biggest international technical competition in Central Europe, where Garrett defined an assignment for 24 students around the concept of sustainable Future Mobility. Prior to COVID-19 Garrett teams regularly held open days for school children in their host communities, with a specific focus on encouraging girls to take an interest in STEM. With many host communities forced into lockdown in 2020 Garrett supported local first responders in several countries with the donation of PPE, and also provided food and sanitation products for 2,000 vulnerable families around Garrett’s Indian sites. Garrett is currently working on several projects to support distance learning in its host communities in 2021. 23 Seasonality Our business is typically moderately seasonal. Our primary North American customers historically reduce production during the month of July and halt operations for approximately one week in December; our European customers generally reduce production during the months of July and August and for one week in December; and our Chinese customers often reduce production during the period surrounding the Chinese New Year. Shut-down periods in the rest of the world generally vary by country. In addition, automotive production is traditionally reduced in the months of July, August and September due to the launch of parts production for new vehicle models. Accordingly, our results reflect this seasonality. Our sales predictability in the short term might also be impacted by sudden changes in customer demand, driven by our OEM customers’ supply chain management. We also typically experience seasonality in cash flow, as a relatively small portion of our full year cash flow is typically generated in the first quarter of the year and a relatively large portion in the last quarter. This seasonality in cash flow is mostly caused by timing of supplier payments for capital expenditures, changes in working capital balances related to the sales seasonality discussed above, and incentive payments. These trends were less significant during 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, but we expect them to continue in the future once the pandemic is resolved. Additional Information Our Company was incorporated on March 14, 2018 as a Delaware corporation in connection with the Spin-Off from Honeywell, and we maintain our headquarters in Rolle, Switzerland. For additional information regarding the Spin-Off, see “Basis of Presentation” at the beginning of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. This Annual Report on Form 10-K, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K, as well as all amendments and other reports filed with or furnished to the SEC, are also available free of charge on our internet site at https://www.garrettmotion.com as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file such material with, or furnish it to, the SEC. 24 Item 1A. Risk Factors You should carefully consider all of the information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and each of the risks described below, which we believe are the principal risks we face. Any of the following risks could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations and the actual outcome of matters as to which forward-looking statements are made in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Other events that we do not currently anticipate or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. Risks Relating to Our Chapter 11 Cases Our ability to successfully operate during and reorganize the Debtors in the Chapter 11 Cases is dependent upon our ability to obtain Bankruptcy Court approval of the Debtors’ motions, the outcome of Bankruptcy Court rulings and the progress of the Chapter 11 Cases in general, including the length of time the Debtors will operate in the Chapter 11 Cases. For the duration of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Debtors are subject to the supervision of the Bankruptcy Court. The Debtors’ ability to continue to operate in the ordinary course, and for our ability to develop and execute our business plan, continue as a going concern and ultimately successfully reorganize the Debtors, are subject to: • • • • • our ability to obtain Bankruptcy Court approval with respect to motions filed in the Chapter 11 Cases from time to time; our ability to develop, confirm and consummate the Plan and the Transaction in the timeframe contemplated by RSA and the PSA or as otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court; the ability of third parties to seek and obtain Bankruptcy Court approval to terminate contracts and other agreements with us; the ability of third parties to appoint a Chapter 11 trustee, or to convert the Chapter 11 Cases to a Chapter 7 proceeding; and the actions and decisions of our creditors and other third parties who have interests in our Chapter 11 Cases that may be inconsistent with our plans, and the Bankruptcy Court’s rulings on such actions and decisions, as applicable. These risks and uncertainties could affect our business, operations, financial condition and our ultimate ability to successfully reorganize the Debtors in various ways. For example, negative events associated with the Chapter 11 Cases could adversely affect the Debtors’ or our non-debtor affiliates’ relationships with suppliers, service providers, customers and other third parties, which in turn could materially adversely affect our operations and financial condition. During the Chapter 11 Cases, the Debtors will need the prior approval of the Bankruptcy Court for transactions outside the ordinary course of business, which may limit the Debtors’ ability to respond timely to certain events or take advantage of opportunities. Additionally, if creditors or other third parties raise significant objections or take other actions against the Debtors before the Bankruptcy Court, this could have the effect of significantly delaying our ability to confirm and consummate the Plan and the Transaction and, to the extent applicable, to meet the milestones set forth in the RSA and the PSA, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operations, financial condition and our ultimate ability to successfully reorganize the Debtors. During the Chapter 11 Cases, we expect our financial results to continue to be volatile as restructuring activities and expenses (including legal and other advisor costs), any contract terminations and rejections, and claims assessments may significantly impact our Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. Because of the risks and uncertainties associated with the Chapter 11 Cases, we cannot accurately predict or quantify the ultimate impact of events that occur during the Chapter 11 Cases that may be inconsistent with our plans, or the ultimate length of time which the Chapter 11 Cases may continue. 25 The Chapter 11 Cases, the DIP Credit Agreement and the PSA limit the flexibility of our management team in running our business. Our Senior Secured Super-Priority Debtor-in-Possession Credit Agreement (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time the “DIP Credit Agreement”) entered into in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases, imposes a number of restrictions on the Debtors. Specifically, the Debtors are subject to certain affirmative covenants, including, without limitation, covenants requiring the Debtors to provide financial information, budgets and other information to the agent and the lenders under the DIP Credit Agreement, as well as negative covenants, including, without limitation, relating to the incurrence of additional debt, liens and the making of investments and restricted payments, in each case as set forth in the DIP Credit Agreement. Restrictions under the DIP Credit Agreement on the ability of our non-Debtor subsidiaries to incur debt, as well as on our ability to invest in our non-Debtor subsidiaries, and repay intercompany loans owing to our non-Debtor subsidiaries, could impact the availability of liquidity to our non- Debtor affiliates. The Debtors’ ability to comply with these provisions may be affected by events beyond our control and our failure to comply or obtain a waiver in the event we cannot comply, with a covenant could result in an event of default under the DIP Credit Agreement, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, continued compliance with or failure to obtain a waiver for covenants restricting the incurrence of debt by non-Debtor subsidiaries or the making of investments in, or the repayment of intercompany loans owing to, non-Debtor subsidiaries could limit the availability of liquidity to our non-Debtor affiliates, which could also adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition to the restrictions applicable to the Debtors’ in the Chapter 11 Cases, we are also subject to operating covenants that apply to the Debtors under PSA. These covenants generally require us to operate in the ordinary course of business, to refrain from taking certain enumerated actions and to affirmatively take other enumerated actions. Such covenants limit the flexibility of our management to respond to various events and circumstances that may arise from time to time, including as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases. There can be no assurances that we will be able to obtain appropriate waivers from such covenants as may be necessary or advisable, which could adversely impact our business and operations. We may not be able to complete any Bankruptcy Court-approved reorganization of our Company or sales of our Company or assets through the chapter 11 process, or we may not be able to realize adequate consideration for such reorganization or sales, which would adversely affect our financial condition. The Debtors’ performance and obligations under the PSA and the ECBA are subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court and the Transaction is subject to other customary closing conditions, including receipt of regulatory approvals or clearances. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain approval and complete the proposed reorganization, or any other significant reorganization transaction, including as a result of objections from our stakeholders. Such objections from stakeholders could result from stakeholders’ preference for an alternative plan of reorganization than that contemplated by the PSA and the ECBA, such as the Atlantic Park Proposal (including with any subsequent modifications). If we are unable to complete a reorganization of the Company in the Chapter 11 Cases, including in accordance with the terms of the PSA and the ECBA, it may be necessary to seek additional funding sources, or convert from the Chapter 11 reorganization process to a Chapter 7 liquidation process. If one or more sales of the Company’s assets are completed, they may not generate the anticipated or desired outcomes (including with respect to consideration received). For more information on the PSA and the ECBA, see Note 2, Reorganization and Chapter 11 Proceedings of the Notes to the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. The resolution pursuant to the PSA of Honeywell’s claims against our bankruptcy estates and our litigation with Honeywell requires approval of the Bankruptcy Court. In connection with the Spin-Off, we entered into certain agreements with Honeywell, including the Indemnity Agreements and the Tax Matters Agreement, which have given rise to significant claims by Honeywell against our bankruptcy estates and have led to litigation between us and Honeywell. Under the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement, we are required to make cash payments to Honeywell in amounts equal to 90% of Honeywell’s asbestos-related liability payments and accounts payable, primarily related to Honeywell’s legacy Bendix friction materials (“Bendix”) business in the United States as well as certain environmental-related liability payments and accounts payable and non-United States asbestos-related liability payments and accounts payable, in each case related to legacy elements of our business, including the legal costs of defending and resolving such liabilities, less 90% of Honeywell’s net insurance receipts and, as may be applicable, certain other recoveries associated with such liabilities. The amount payable by us in respect of such liabilities arising in any given year will be payable in Euros, subject to a cap (denominated in Euros) equal to $175 million, calculated by reference to the Distribution Date Currency Exchange Rate. The cap is exclusive of any late payment fees up to 5% per annum. 26 The Tax Matters Agreement contains covenants and indemnification obligations that address compliance with Section 355 of the Code, are intended to preserve the tax-free nature of the Spin-Off, and outline Honeywell’s and our post-spin rights, responsibilities, and obligations regarding tax- related matters (including tax liabilities, tax attributes, tax returns and tax contests). The Tax Matters Agreement provides, among other things, that, following the Spin-Off date of October 1, 2018, we are responsible and will indemnify Honeywell for all taxes, including income taxes, sales taxes, value- added and payroll taxes, relating to Garrett for all periods, including periods prior to the completion date of the Spin-Off. Additionally, the Tax Matters Agreement provides that Garrett ASASCO is to make payments to a subsidiary of Honeywell for a portion of Honeywell’s net tax liability under Section 965(h)(6)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code for mandatory transition taxes that Honeywell determined is attributable to us (the “MTT Claim”). In December 2019, we commenced a lawsuit against Honeywell in connection with the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement for declaratory judgment, breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duties, aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duties, corporate waste, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and unjust enrichment. Our lawsuit seeks, among other things, to establish that the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement is unenforceable in whole or in part because Honeywell has failed to establish the prerequisites for indemnification under New York law, and improperly seeks indemnification for amounts attributable to punitive damages and intentional misconduct. Following the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Debtors removed the lawsuit against Honeywell to the Bankruptcy Court and also initiated litigation against Honeywell regarding the value and validity of its claims under the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement and the Tax Matters Agreement. Under the terms of the PSA and the Transaction, the Plan, if confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, will include a global settlement with Honeywell providing for (a) the full and final satisfaction, settlement, release, and discharge of all liabilities under or related to the Indemnity Agreements and the Tax Matters Agreement and (b) the dismissal with prejudice of the Honeywell Litigation in exchange for (x) a $375 million cash payment at Emergence and (y) the Series B Preferred Stock. The Company will have the option to prepay the Series B Preferred Stock in full at any time at a call price equivalent to $584 million as of Emergence (representing the present value of the installments at a 7.25% discount rate). The Company will also have the option to make a partial payment of the Series B Preferred Stock, reducing the present value to $400 million, at any time within 18 months of Emergence. In every case the duration of future liabilities to Honeywell will be reduced from 30 years prior to the Chapter 11 filing to a maximum of nine years. Our entry into and performance under the PSA and the terms of the PSA, the Transaction and the Plan remain subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court. There can be no assurances that we will obtain the approval of the Bankruptcy Court and consummate the Transaction. For more information on the risks related to the approval of the Plan, see “We may not be able to complete any Bankruptcy Court-approved reorganization of our Company or sales of our Company or assets through the chapter 11 process, or we may not be able to realize adequate consideration for such reorganization or sales, which would adversely affect our financial condition”. Operating under Bankruptcy Court protection for a long period of time may harm our business. A long period of operations under Bankruptcy Court protection could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity. During the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases, our senior management may be required to spend a significant amount of time and effort dealing with the reorganization instead of focusing exclusively on our business operations. A prolonged period of operating under Bankruptcy Court protection also may make it more difficult to retain management and other key personnel necessary to the success and growth of our business. In addition, as the length of the Chapter 11 Cases increases, the risk that customers and suppliers will lose confidence in our ability to reorganize our business successfully may also increase, and such customers and suppliers may seek to establish alternative commercial relationships. Delay of the Chapter 11 Cases could impact our ability to maintain our operations during the Chapter 11 Cases. If the Chapter 11 Cases take longer than expected to conclude, the Debtors may exhaust or lose access to the DIP Term Loan Facility. Any of these factors could result in the need for substantial additional funding. A number of other factors, including the Chapter 11 Cases, our recent financial results, our substantial indebtedness and the competitive environment we face, may adversely affect the availability and terms of funding that might be available to us during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases. As such, we may not be able to source capital at rates acceptable to us, or at all, to fund our current operations. The inability to obtain necessary additional funding on acceptable terms could have a material adverse impact on us and on our ability to sustain our operations during the Chapter 11 Cases. 27 Our ability to prosecute the Chapter 11 Cases and obtain confirmation of the Plan may be contested by third parties with litigation. Certain of the Debtors’ creditors and other parties-in-interest may object to and commence litigation against the Debtors during the course of the Chapter 11 Cases, the outcome of which is uncertain. Such litigation may prolong the Chapter 11 Cases and may make it difficult for the Debtors to reach the contractual milestones for the case within the timeframes set out in each of the PSA and RSA. In certain instances, a Chapter 11 proceeding may be converted to a proceeding under Chapter 7. There can be no assurance as to whether the Debtors will successfully reorganize under the Chapter 11 Cases. If the Bankruptcy Court finds that it would be in the best interest of creditors and/or the Debtors, the Bankruptcy Court may convert the Chapter 11 Cases to proceedings under Chapter 7. In such event, a Chapter 7 trustee would be appointed or elected to liquidate the Debtors’ assets for distribution in accordance with the priorities established by the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors believe that liquidation under Chapter 7 would result in significantly smaller distributions being made to the Debtors’ creditors than those provided for in a Chapter 11 plan of reorganization because of (i) the likelihood that the assets would have to be sold or otherwise disposed of in a disorderly fashion over a short period of time rather than reorganizing or selling in a controlled manner the Debtors’ businesses as a going concern, (ii) additional administrative expenses involved in the appointment of a Chapter 7 trustee, and (iii) additional expenses and claims, some of which would be entitled to priority, that would be generated during the liquidation and from the rejection of leases and other executory contracts in connection with a cessation of operations. Trading in our securities during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases poses substantial risks. While the proposed terms of the Transaction under the PSA contemplate the reinstatement or cash-out of the Company’s stockholders, such terms remain subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court and the Company’s stockholders are cautioned that it is possible that the Company’s stockholders will receive nothing in exchange for their common stock upon the completion of the Chapter 11 Cases and that the common stock will have no value and that trading in securities of the Company during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases will be highly speculative and will pose substantial risks. The delisting of our common stock from New York Stock Exchange has limited and could continue to limit the liquidity of our common stock, increase the volatility in the price of our common stock, and hinder our ability to raise capital. If the Plan is not confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, it is possible the Company’s outstanding common stock may be cancelled and extinguished upon confirmation of a different plan of reorganization by the Bankruptcy Court. In such an event, the Company’s stockholders may be entitled to receive recovery on account of their equity interests, but the amount of any such recovery is highly uncertain and there may be no such recovery. Trading prices for the Company’s common stock and other securities may bear little or no relation to actual recovery, if any, by holders thereof in the Company’s Chapter 11 Cases. Accordingly, the Company urges extreme caution with respect to existing and future investments in its securities. Our common stock was delisted from NYSE and is currently traded on the OTC Pink Sheets market maintained by the OTC Market Group, Inc., which involves additional risks compared to being listed on a national securities exchange. Trading in our common stock was suspended on September 21, 2020 and removed from listing on NYSE on October 19, 2020. We will not be able to relist our common stock on a national securities exchange during our Chapter 11 process, although our common stock is now quoted on the OTC Pink Sheets market maintained by the OTC Market Group, Inc. under the trading symbol “GTXMQ”. We may be unable to relist our common stock on a national securities exchange after our Emergence. The lack of listing on a national securities exchange may impair the ability of holders of our common stock to sell their shares at the time they wish to sell them or at a price that they consider reasonable. The lack of listing on a national securities exchange may also reduce the fair market value of the shares of our common stock. Furthermore, because of the limited market and generally low volume of trading in our common stock, the price of our common stock could be more likely to be affected by broad market fluctuations, general market conditions, fluctuations in our operating results, changes in the markets’ perception of our business, and announcements made by us, our competitors, parties with whom we have business relationships or third parties with interests in the Chapter 11 Cases. 28 Risks Relating to Our Business Industry and economic conditions may adversely affect the markets and operating conditions of our customers, which in turn can affect demand for our products and services and our results of operations. We are dependent on the continued growth, viability and financial stability of our customers. A substantial portion of our customers are OEMs in the automotive industry. This industry is subject to rapid technological change often driven by regulatory changes, vigorous competition, short product life cycles and cyclical and reduced consumer demand patterns. In addition to general economic conditions, automotive sales and automotive vehicle production also depend on other factors, such as supplier stability, factory transitions, capacity constraints, the costs and availability of consumer credit, consumer confidence and consumer preferences. When our customers are adversely affected by these factors, we may be similarly affected to the extent that our customers reduce the volume of orders for our products. Economic declines and corresponding reductions in automotive sales and production by our customers, particularly with respect to light vehicles, have in the past had, and may in the future have, a significant adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Even if overall automotive sales and production remain stable, changes in regulations and consumer preferences may shift consumer demand away from the types of vehicles we prioritize or towards the types of vehicles where our products generate smaller profit margins. A decrease in consumer demand for the specific types of vehicles that have traditionally included our turbocharger products, such as a decrease in demand for diesel-fueled vehicles in favor of gasoline-fueled vehicles, or lower-than-expected consumer demand for specific types of vehicles where we anticipate providing significant components as part of our strategic growth plan, such as a decrease in demand for vehicles utilizing electric-hybrid and fuel cell powertrains in favor of full battery electric vehicles, could have a significant effect on our business. If we are unable to anticipate significant changes in consumer sentiment, or if consumer demand for certain vehicle types changes more than we expect, our results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected. Sales in our aftermarket operations are also directly related to consumer demand and spending for automotive aftermarket products, which may be affected by additional factors such as the average useful life of OEM parts and components, severity of regional weather conditions, highway and roadway infrastructure deterioration and the average number of miles vehicles are driven by owners. Improvements in technology and product quality are extending the longevity of vehicle component parts, which may result in delayed or reduced aftermarket sales. Our results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected if we fail to respond in a timely and appropriate manner to changes in the demand for our aftermarket products. The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted and is expected to further adversely impact our business and results of operations. During 2020, the novel coronavirus disease, COVID-19, spread across the world, including throughout Asia, the United States and Europe. The outbreak and government measures taken in response had and continue to have a significant adverse impact, both direct and indirect, on our businesses and the economy. Our manufacturing facility in Wuhan, China was shut down for six weeks in February and March 2020 and we saw diminished production in our Shanghai, China facility for that same time period, which were the primary drivers of the decrease in sales in the Asia region during the three months ended March 31, 2020. While our facilities in China re-opened in the second quarter, our manufacturing facilities in Mexicali, Mexico and Pune, India were shut down and our manufacturing facilities in Europe operated at reduced capacity. This significantly reduced our production volumes and had a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition. In the third quarter, the fast recovery observed in all geographies enabled us to ramp up production in most of our production sites to normal levels. This recovery continued in the fourth quarter with a very strong demand especially in China and Europe. However, if the COVID-19 pandemic drives new lockdown measures impacting our manufacturing facilities, our facilities may be forced to shut down or operate at reduced capacity again which will continue to negatively impact our revenues. We have also faced limitations on our employee resources, including because of stay-at-home orders from local governments, new Paid Time Off policies, employee furloughs, state-funded layoffs, sickness of employees or their families or the desire of employees to avoid contact with large groups of people. The pandemic has also diverted management resources and the prolonged work-from-home arrangements have created business continuity and cybersecurity risks. 29 Certain of our customers have been similarly affected and are experiencing closures and labor shortages. As a result of such closures, we have experienced weakened demand from our customers, who have not been able to accept orders or have delayed or canceled orders, which has negatively affected our revenues. If this trend continues, our revenues will continue to be negatively impacted. The COVID-19 pandemic continues to rapidly evolve. The extent to which the outbreak impacts our business, liquidity and financial results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, such as the availability and effectiveness of any vaccines or treatments, the duration of the pandemic, travel restrictions and social distancing in the European Union, China and other countries, the duration and extent of business closures or business disruptions and the effectiveness of actions taken to contain the disease. If we or our customers experience prolonged shutdowns or other business disruptions beyond current expectations, our ability to conduct our business in the manner and within planned timelines could be materially and adversely impacted, and our business and financial results may continue to be adversely affected. Our leveraged capital structure and liabilities to Honeywell may pose significant challenges to our overall strategic and financial flexibility and have a material adverse effect on our business, liquidity position and financial position. Our leverage ratio remains high and, unless addressed in the Chapter 11 Cases, we expect that it will remain so for at least the next several quarters. This high leverage is exacerbated by Garrett ASASCO’s purported significant liabilities and obligations to Honeywell under the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement and the tax matters agreement with Honeywell, dated September 12, 2018 (the “Tax Matters Agreement”). Under the terms of the PSA and the Transaction, the Plan, if confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, will include a global settlement with Honeywell providing for (a) the full and final satisfaction, settlement, release, and discharge of all liabilities under or related to the Indemnity Agreements and the Tax Matters Agreement and (b) the dismissal with prejudice of the Honeywell Litigation in exchange for (x) a $375 million cash payment at Emergence and (y) the Series B Preferred Stock. The terms of the PSA, the Transaction and the Plan remain subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court. There can be no assurances that we will obtain the approval of the Bankruptcy Court and consummate the Transaction. Our current leveraged capital structure poses significant challenges to our overall strategic and financial flexibility and may impair our ability to gain or hold market share in the highly competitive automotive supply market. This leverage may be greater than that of some of our competitors, which may put us at a competitive disadvantage. In addition, our business has been and may continue to be significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and related response measures, which has had adverse consequences for our leverage. See “The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted and is expected to further adversely impact our business and results of operations.” above for more information. The COVID-19 pandemic and related response measures may continue to have an impact, and if we are unable to manage through these challenges, our leverage ratio, capital structure or liquidity may be further adversely effected. On September 20, 2020, the Debtors filed the Chapter 11 Cases in order to address this leveraged capital structure. However, because of the risks and uncertainties associated with the Chapter 11 Cases, we cannot accurately predict or quantify the ultimate impact of events that occur during the Chapter 11 Cases on our leverage, capital structure, liabilities or liquidity position, and we may not be successful in addressing these challenges through or following the Chapter 11 Cases. See risks related to the Chapter 11 Cases above for more information. Changes in legislation or government regulations or policies can have a significant impact on demand for our products and our results of operations. The sales and margins of our business are directly impacted by government regulations, including safety, performance and product certification regulations, particularly with respect to emissions, fuel economy and energy efficiency standards for motor vehicles. Increased public awareness and concern regarding global climate change may result in more regional and/or federal requirements to reduce or mitigate the effects of greenhouse gas emissions. While such requirements can promote increased demand for our turbochargers and other products, several markets in which we operate are undertaking efforts to more strictly regulate or ban vehicles powered by certain older-generation diesel engines. If such efforts are pursued more broadly throughout the market than we have anticipated, such efforts may impact demand for our aftermarket products and consequently affect our results of operations. 30 In the long-term, several of the markets in which we operate are contemplating or undertaking multi-decade efforts to transition away from internal combustion engines in favor of hybrid or full-battery electric vehicles. Although we expect a significant number of hybrids will be turbocharged, if we overestimate the turbo penetration rate in hybrids or if a transition to battery-electric vehicles is pursued more broadly throughout the market, or is implemented more rapidly than we have anticipated, the demand for our products could be impacted and our results of operations consequently could be affected. This is a risk existing in particular in Europe. In the US, with the change in presidential administration, we expect to see a move to adoption of new environmental regulations, which presents similar risks as in Europe in the long-term, depending on how regulatory targets for fuel efficiency and emissions in the 2025-30 timeframe will be set. Our future growth is largely dependent upon our ability to develop new technologies and introduce new products with acceptable margins that achieve market acceptance or correctly anticipate regulatory changes. The global automotive component supply industry is highly competitive. Our future growth rate depends upon a number of factors, including our ability to: (i) identify emerging technological trends in our target end-markets; (ii) develop and maintain competitive products; (iii) enhance our products by adding innovative features that differentiate our products from those of our competitors; (iv) develop, manufacture and bring compelling new products to market quickly and cost effectively; and (v) attract, develop and retain individuals with the requisite technical expertise and understanding of customers’ needs to develop new technologies and introduce new products. We have identified a trend towards increased development and adoption by OEMs of hybrid-electric powertrains, fuel cell powertrains and associated electric boosting technologies, especially on commercial vehicle applications, as pure battery-electric vehicles continue to face range, charging time and sustainability issues on those applications. Our results of operations could be adversely affected if our estimates regarding adoption and penetration rates for hybrid-electric and fuel cell powertrains or for pure battery electric cars are incorrect. Failure to protect our intellectual property or allegations that we have infringed the intellectual property of others could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. We rely on a combination of patents, copyrights, trademarks, tradenames, trade secrets and other proprietary rights, as well as contractual arrangements, including licenses, to establish, maintain and protect our intellectual property rights. Effective intellectual property protection may not be available, or we may not be able to acquire or maintain appropriate registered or unregistered intellectual property, in every country in which we do business. Furthermore, in some areas of our business the established industry maturity of product technology may leave limited opportunity for new intellectual property to differentiate our products. Accordingly, our intellectual property may not be sufficient on its own to provide us a strong product differentiation and competitive advantage, which in turn could weaken our ability to secure business awards from our customers and/or our ability to achieve targeted product profitability. The protection of our intellectual property may require us to spend significant amounts of money. Further, the steps we take to protect our intellectual property may not adequately protect our rights or prevent others from infringing, violating or misappropriating our intellectual proprietary rights. Any impairment of our intellectual property rights, including due to changes in U.S. or foreign intellectual property laws or the absence of effective legal protections or enforcement measures, could adversely impact our businesses, financial condition and results of operations. International technical export control regulations and trade conflicts may limit our ability to use certain intellectual property in our products in some regions of the world or customers may require assured access to intellectual property through open source-code, joint ownership of intellectual property, free license, or other measures. These constraints could cause us difficulty in securing business awards from our customers, protecting our competitive technology differentiation, and/or our ability to achieve targeted product profitability. 31 In addition, as we adopt new technology, we face an inherent risk of exposure to the claims of others that we have allegedly violated their intellectual property rights. Successful claims that we infringe on the intellectual property rights of others could require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements on unfavorable terms or cause us to incur substantial monetary liability. We may also be prohibited preliminarily or permanently from further use of the intellectual property in question or be required to change our business practices to stop the infringing use, which could limit our ability to compete effectively. In addition, our customer agreements may require us to indemnify the customer for infringement. The time and expense of defending against these claims, whether meritorious or not, may have a material and adverse impact on our profitability, can be time-consuming and costly and may divert management’s attention and resources away from our businesses. Furthermore, the publicity we may receive as a result of infringing intellectual property rights may damage our reputation and adversely impact our existing customer relationships and our ability to develop new business. We may incur material losses and costs as a result of warranty claims, including product recalls, and product liability actions that may be brought against us. Depending on the terms under which we supply products to an auto manufacturer, we may be required to guarantee or offer warranties for our products and to bear the costs of recalls, repair or replacement of such products pursuant to new vehicle warranties. There can be no assurance that we will have adequate reserves to cover such recall, repair and replacement costs. In the event that any of our products fails to perform as expected, we may face direct exposure to warranty and product liability claims or may be required to participate in a government or self-imposed recall involving such products. Our customers that are not end users, such as auto manufacturers, may face similar claims or be obliged to conduct recalls of their own, and in such circumstances, they may seek contribution from us. Our agreements with our customers do not always include limitation of liability clauses or, in certain situations or legal jurisdictions, such limitation of liability clauses may not be fully valid. If any such claims or contribution requests exceed our available insurance, or if there is a product recall, there could be a material adverse impact on our results of operations. In addition, a recall claim could require us to review our entire product portfolio to assess whether similar issues are present in other product lines, which could result in significant disruption to our business and could have a further adverse impact on our results of operations. We cannot assure you that we will not experience any material warranty or product liability claim losses in the future or that we will not incur significant costs to defend such claims. The operational constraints and financial distress of third parties could adversely impact our business and results of operations. Our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows could be adversely affected if our third-party suppliers lack sufficient quality control or if there are significant changes in their financial or business condition. If our third-party manufacturers fail to deliver products, parts and components of sufficient quality on time and at reasonable prices, we could have difficulties fulfilling our orders on similar terms or at all, sales and profits could decline, and our commercial reputation could be damaged. See “Raw material price fluctuations, the ability of key suppliers to meet quality and delivery requirements, or catastrophic events can increase the cost of our products and services, impact our ability to meet commitments to customers and cause us to incur significant liabilities.” If we fail to adequately assess the creditworthiness and operational reliability of existing or future suppliers, if there is any unanticipated deterioration in their creditworthiness and operational reliability, or if our suppliers do not perform or adhere to our existing or future contractual arrangements, any resulting increase in nonperformance by them, our inability to otherwise obtain the supplies or our inability to enforce the terms of the contract or seek other remedies could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Work stoppages, other disruptions, or the need to relocate any of our facilities could significantly disrupt our business. Our geographic footprint emphasizes locating, engineering and manufacturing capabilities in close physical proximity to our customers, thereby enabling us to adopt technologies and products for the specific vehicle types sold in each geographic market. Because our facilities offer localized services in this manner, a work stoppage or other disruption at one or more of our R&D, engineering or manufacturing and assembly facilities in a given region could have material adverse effects on our business, especially insofar as it impacts our ability to serve customers in that region. For example, our manufacturing facility in Wuhan, China was shut down in 2020 due to the COVID-19 outbreak, causing us to delay certain shipments to our customers. Moreover, due to unforeseen circumstances or factors beyond our control, we may be forced to relocate our operations from one or more of our existing facilities to new facilities and may incur substantial costs, experience program delays and sacrifice proximity to customers and geographic markets as a result, potentially for an extended period of time. 32 The automotive industry relies heavily on “just-in-time” delivery of components during the assembly and manufacture of vehicles, and when we fail to make timely deliveries in accordance with our contractual obligations, we generally have to absorb our own costs for identifying and solving the “root cause” problem as well as expeditiously producing replacement components or products. We typically must also carry the costs associated with “catching up,” such as overtime and premium freight. Additionally, if we are the cause for a customer being forced to halt production, the customer may seek to recoup all of its losses and expenses from us. These losses and expenses could be significant, and may include consequential losses such as lost profits. In addition, a significant disruption in the supply of a key component due to a work stoppage or other disruption at one of our suppliers or any other supplier could impact our ability to make timely deliveries to our customers and, accordingly, have a material adverse effect on our financial results. Where a customer halts production because of another supplier failing to deliver on time, or as a result of a work stoppage or other disruption, it is unlikely we will be fully compensated, if at all. We may not realize sales represented by awarded business or effectively utilize our manufacturing capacity. When we win a bid to offer products and services to an OEM customer, the customer typically does not commit to award us its business until a separate contract has been negotiated, generally with a term ranging from one year to the life of the model (usually three to seven years). Once business has been awarded, the OEM customer typically retains the ability to terminate the arrangement without penalty and does not commit to purchase a minimum volume of products while the contract is in effect. In light of the foregoing, while we estimate awarded business using certain assumptions, including projected future sales volumes, the volume and timing of sales to our customers may vary due to: variation in demand for our customers’ products; our customers’ attempts to manage their inventory; design changes; changes in our customers’ manufacturing strategy; the success of customers’ goods and models; and acquisitions of or consolidations among customers. A significant decrease in demand for certain key models or a group of related models sold by any of our major customers, or the ability of a manufacturer to re-source and discontinue purchasing from us its requirements for a particular model or group of models, could have a material adverse effect on us. In particular, we may be unable to forecast the level of customer orders with sufficient certainty to allow us to optimize production schedules and maximize utilization of manufacturing capacity. Any excess capacity would cause us to incur increased fixed costs in our products relative to the net revenue we generate, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations, particularly during economic downturns. Similarly, a significant failure or inability to adapt to increased production or desired inventory levels (including as a result of accelerated launch schedules for new automobile and truck platforms), comply with customer specifications and manufacturing requirements more generally or respond to other unexpected fluctuations, as well as any delays or other problems with existing or new products (including program launch difficulties) could result in financial penalties, increased costs, loss of sales, loss of customers or potential breaches of customer contracts, which could have an adverse effect on our profitability and results of operations. If actual production orders from our customers are not consistent with the projections we use in calculating the amount of our awarded business, or if we are unable to improve utilization levels for manufacturing lines that consequently are underutilized and correctly manage capacity, the increased expense levels will have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, and we could realize substantially less revenue over the life of these projects than the currently projected estimate. We may not be able to successfully negotiate pricing terms with our customers, which may adversely affect our results of operations. We negotiate sales prices annually with our automotive customers. Our customer supply agreements generally require step-downs in component pricing over the period of production. In addition, our customers often reserve the right to terminate their supply contracts at any time, which enhances their ability to obtain price reductions. OEMs have also exercised significant influence over their suppliers, including us, because the automotive component supply industry is highly competitive and serves a limited number of customers. Based on these factors, our status as a Tier I supplier (one that supplies vehicle components directly to manufacturers) and the fact that our customers’ product programs typically last a number of years and are anticipated to encompass large volumes, our customers are able to negotiate favorable pricing, and any cost-cutting initiatives that our customers adopt generally will result in increased downward pressure on our pricing. Any resulting impacts to our sales levels and margins, or the failure of our technologies or products to gain market acceptance due to more attractive offerings by our competitors, could over time significantly reduce our revenues and adversely affect our competitive standing and prospects. In particular, large commercial settlements with our customers may adversely affect our results of operations. 33 We are subject to the economic, political, regulatory, foreign exchange and other risks of international operations. We have created a geographic footprint that emphasizes locating R&D, engineering and manufacturing capabilities in close physical proximity to our customers. Our international geographic footprint subjects us to many risks, including: exchange control regulations; wage and price controls; antitrust and environmental regulations; employment regulations; foreign investment laws; monetary and fiscal policies and protectionist measures that may prohibit acquisitions or joint ventures, establish local content requirements, or impact trade volumes; import, export and other trade restrictions (such as embargoes); violations by our employees of anti-corruption laws; changes in regulations regarding transactions with state-owned enterprises; nationalization of private enterprises; natural and man-made disasters, hazards and losses; global health risks and pandemics; backlash from foreign labor organizations related to our restructuring actions; violence, civil and labor unrest; acts of terrorism; and our ability to hire and maintain qualified staff and maintain the safety of our employees in these regions. Additionally, certain of the markets in which we operate have adopted increasingly strict data privacy and data protection requirements or may require local storage and processing of data or similar requirements. The European Commission has approved a data protection regulation, known as the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), that came into force in May 2018. The GDPR includes operational requirements for companies that receive or process personal data of residents of the European Union and includes significant penalties for non- compliance. The GDPR and similar data protection measures may increase the cost and complexity of our ability to deliver our services. Following the U.K.’s withdrawal from the European Union on January 31, 2020, the U.K. entered into a transition period during which it continued its ongoing and complex negotiations with the European Union relating to the future trading relationship between the U.K. and European Union. The transition period ended on December 31, 2020, before which the United Kingdom and the European Commission reached an agreement on the future trading relationship between the parties (the “UK-EU Trade and Cooperation Agreement” OR “TCA”). On December 30, 2020 the U.K. Parliament approved the European (Future Relationship) Bill, thereby ratifying the TCA. The TCA is subject to formal approval by the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union before it comes into effect and has been applied provisionally since January 1, 2021. Significant political and economic uncertainty remains about whether the terms of the relationship will differ materially from the terms before withdrawal. Our manufacturing operations in Cheadle and the businesses of our customers and suppliers could be negatively impacted if tariffs or other restrictions are imposed on the free flow of goods to and from the U.K. Trade tensions between the United States and China, and other countries have escalated in recent years. Any U.S. tariff impositions against Chinese exports have generally been followed by retaliatory Chinese tariffs on U.S. exports to China. We may not be able to mitigate the impacts of any future tariffs, and our business, results of operations and financial position would be materially adversely affected by such tariffs. Further changes in U.S. trade policies, tariffs, taxes, export restrictions or other trade barriers, or restrictions on raw materials or components may limit our ability to produce products, increase our manufacturing costs, decrease our profit margins, reduce the competitiveness of our products, or inhibit our ability to sell products or purchase raw materials or components, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. These and other instabilities and uncertainties arising from the global geopolitical environment, along with the cost of compliance with increasingly complex and often conflicting regulations worldwide, can impair our flexibility in modifying product, marketing, pricing or other strategies for growing our businesses, as well as our ability to improve productivity and maintain acceptable operating margins. As a result of our global presence, a significant portion of our revenues are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar whereas a significant amount of our payment obligations are denominated in U.S. dollars, which exposes us to foreign exchange risk. We monitor and seek to reduce such risk through hedging activities; however, foreign exchange hedging activities bear a financial cost and may not always be available to us or be successful in eliminating such volatility. Finally, we generate significant amounts of cash that is invested with financial and non-financial counterparties. While we employ comprehensive controls regarding global cash management to guard against cash or investment loss and to ensure our ability to fund our operations and commitments, a material disruption to the counterparties with whom we transact business could expose us to financial loss. We have invested substantial resources in specific foreign markets where we expect growth and we may be unable to timely alter our strategies should such expectations not be realized. We have identified certain countries, such as China and India, as key high-growth geographic markets. We believe these markets are likely to experience substantial long-term growth, and accordingly have made and expect to continue to make substantial investments in numerous manufacturing operations, technical centers, R&D activities and other infrastructure to support anticipated growth in these areas. If market demand for evolving vehicle technologies in these regions does not grow as quickly as we anticipate, or if we are unable to deepen existing and develop additional customer relationships in these regions, we may fail to realize expected rates of return, or even incur losses, on our 34 existing investments and may be unable to timely redeploy the invested capital to take advantage of other markets or product categories, potentially resulting in lost market share to our competitors. In particular, our ability to remain competitive and continue to grow in these regions depends in part on the absence of competing state-sponsored domestic businesses. If a state-sponsored operation entered a local market as a competitor, it might have access to significant social and financial capital that would enable it to overcome the ordinary barriers to entry in the turbocharger industry and acquire potentially significant market share at our expense. We could be adversely affected by our leading market position in certain markets. We believe that we are a market leader in the turbocharger industry in many of the markets in which we operate. Although we believe we have acted properly in the markets in which we have significant market share, we could face allegations of abuse of our market position or of collusion with other market participants, which could result in negative publicity and adverse regulatory action by the relevant authorities, including the imposition of monetary fines, all of which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. A deterioration in industry, economic or financial conditions may restrict our ability to access the capital markets on favorable terms. We may require additional capital in the future to finance our growth and development, upgrade and improve our manufacturing capabilities, implement further marketing and sales activities, fund ongoing R&D activities, satisfy regulatory and environmental compliance obligations, satisfy indemnity obligations to Honeywell, and meet general working capital needs. Our capital requirements will depend on many factors, including acceptance of and demand for our products, the extent to which we invest in new technology and R&D projects and the status and timing of these developments. If our access to capital were to become constrained significantly, or if costs of capital increased significantly, due to lowered credit ratings, prevailing industry conditions, the solvency of our customers, a material decline in demand for our products, the volatility of the capital markets or other factors, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected. These conditions may adversely affect our ability to obtain targeted credit ratings. We may need additional capital resources in the future in order to meet our projected operating needs, capital expenditures and other cash requirements, and if we are unable to obtain sufficient resources for our operating needs, capital expenditures and other cash requirements for any reason, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected. Raw material price fluctuations, the ability of key suppliers to meet quality and delivery requirements, or catastrophic events can increase the cost of our products and services, impact our ability to meet commitments to customers and cause us to incur significant liabilities. The cost and availability of raw materials (including, but not limited to, grey iron, aluminum, stainless steel and a nickel, iron and chromium-based alloy) is a key element in the cost of our products. Our inability to offset material price inflation through increased prices to customers, formula or long- term fixed price contracts with suppliers, productivity actions or through commodity hedges could adversely affect our results of operations. We obtain components and other products and services from numerous suppliers and other vendors throughout the world. Many major components and product equipment items are procured or subcontracted on a single- or sole-source basis. Although we believe that sources of supply for raw materials and components are generally adequate, it is difficult to predict what effects shortages or price increases may have in the future. Short- or long-term capacity constraints or financial distress at any point in our supply chain could disrupt our operations and adversely affect our financial performance, particularly when the affected suppliers and vendors are the sole sources of products that we require or that have unique capabilities, or when our customers have directed us to use those specific suppliers and vendors. Our ability to manage inventory and meet delivery requirements may be constrained by our suppliers’ inability to scale production and adjust delivery of long-lead time products during times of volatile demand. Our inability to fill our supply needs would jeopardize our ability to fulfill obligations under commercial contracts, and could result in reduced sales and profits, contract penalties or terminations, and damage to customer relationships. 35 Failure to increase productivity through sustainable operational improvements, as well as an inability to successfully execute repositioning projects or to effectively manage our workforce, may reduce our profitability or adversely impact our business. Our profitability and margin growth are dependent upon our ability to drive sustainable improvements. In addition, we seek productivity and cost savings benefits through repositioning actions and projects, such as consolidation of manufacturing facilities, transitions to cost-competitive regions, workforce reductions, asset impairments, product line rationalizations and other cost-saving initiatives. Risks associated with these actions include delays in execution of the planned initiatives, additional unexpected costs, realization of fewer than estimated productivity improvements and adverse effects on employee morale. We may not realize the full operational or financial benefits we expect, the recognition of these benefits may be delayed and these actions may potentially disrupt our operations. In addition, organizational changes, attrition, labor relations difficulties, or workforce stoppage could have a material adverse effect on our business, reputation, financial position and results of operations. Our operations and the prior operations of predecessor companies expose us to the risk of material environmental liabilities. We are subject to potentially material liabilities related to the investigation and cleanup of environmental hazards and to claims of personal injuries or property damages that may arise from hazardous substance releases and exposures. We are also subject to potentially material liabilities related to the compliance of our operations with the requirements of various federal, state, local and foreign governments that regulate the discharge of materials into the environment and the generation, handling, storage, treatment and disposal of and exposure to hazardous substances. If we are found to be in violation of these laws and regulations, we may be subject to substantial fines and criminal sanctions and be required to install costly equipment or make operational changes to achieve compliance with such laws and regulations. In addition, changes in laws, regulations or government enforcement of policies concerning the environment, the discovery of previously unknown contamination or new information related to individual contaminated sites, the establishment of stricter state or federal toxicity standards with respect to certain contaminants, or the imposition of new clean-up requirements or remedial techniques, could require us to incur additional currently unanticipated costs in the future that would have a negative effect on our financial condition or results of operations. We cannot predict with certainty the outcome of litigation matters, government proceedings and other contingencies and uncertainties. We are or may be party to a number of lawsuits, investigations and disputes (some of which involve substantial amounts claimed) arising out of our current and historical business, including matters relating to our Honeywell Indemnity Agreement, commercial transactions, product liability (including legacy asbestos claims involving the friction materials legacy business), prior acquisitions and divestitures, employment, employee benefits plans, intellectual property, antitrust, import and export, and environmental, health and safety matters, as well as securities litigation, tax proceedings and litigation related to our debt. For additional information regarding our pending legal proceedings, see Part I, Item 3, “Legal Proceedings”. We cannot predict with certainty the outcome of legal proceedings or contingencies. The costs incurred in litigation can be substantial and result in the diversion of management’s attention and resources. We may also make certain commitments, including representations, warranties and indemnities relating to current and past operations, including those related to divested businesses, and issue guarantees of third-party obligations. Our potential liabilities are subject to change over time due to new developments, changes in settlement strategy or the impact of evidentiary requirements, and we may become subject to or be required to pay damage awards or settlements that could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. If we were required to make payments, such payments could be significant and could exceed the amounts we have accrued with respect thereto, adversely affecting our business, financial condition and results of operations. While we maintain insurance for certain risks, the amount of our insurance coverage may not be adequate to cover the total amount of all insured claims and liabilities. The incurrence of significant liabilities for which there is no or insufficient insurance coverage could adversely affect our results of operations, cash flows, liquidity and financial condition. 36 We depend on the recruitment and retention of qualified personnel, and our failure to attract and retain such personnel could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Due to the complex nature of our business, our future performance is highly dependent upon the continued services of our key engineering personnel, scientists and executive officers, the development of additional management personnel and the hiring of new qualified engineering, manufacturing, marketing, sales and management personnel for our operations. Competition for qualified personnel in our industry is intense, and we may not be successful in attracting or retaining qualified personnel. The loss of key employees, our inability to attract new qualified employees or adequately train employees, or the delay in hiring key personnel, could negatively affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our U.S. and non-U.S. tax liabilities are dependent, in part, upon the distribution of income among various jurisdictions in which we operate. Our future results of operations could be adversely affected by changes in the effective tax rate as a result of a change in the mix of earnings in countries with differing statutory tax rates, changes in tax laws, regulations and judicial rulings (or changes in the interpretation thereof), changes in generally accepted accounting principles, changes in the valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities, the results of audits and examinations of previously filed tax returns and continuing assessments of our tax exposures and various other governmental enforcement initiatives. Our tax expense includes estimates of tax reserves and reflects other estimates and assumptions, including assessments of our future earnings which could impact the valuation of our deferred tax assets. Changes in tax laws or regulations, including multi-jurisdictional changes enacted in response to the guidelines provided by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development to address base erosion and profit shifting, will increase tax uncertainty and may adversely impact our provision for income taxes. Because we have officers and directors who live outside of the United States, you may have no effective recourse against them for misconduct and may not be able to receive compensation for damages to the value of your investment caused by wrongful actions by our directors and officers. We have officers and directors who live outside of the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to enforce within the U.S. any judgments obtained against those officers and directors or obtain judgments against them outside of the U.S. that are based on the civil liability provisions of the federal or state securities laws of the U.S. Investors may not be able to receive compensation for damages to the value of their investment caused by wrongful actions by our directors and officers. Our emerging opportunities in technology, products and services depend in part on intellectual property and technology licensed from third parties. A number of our emerging opportunities in technology, products and services rely on key technologies developed or licensed from third parties. While the majority of our current product offerings are not covered by third-party licenses, many of our emerging technology offerings that we are developing use software components or other intellectual property licensed from third parties, including both through proprietary and open source licenses. Should such emerging products become a significant part of our product offerings, our reliance on third-party licenses may present various risks to our business. These third-party software components may become obsolete, defective or incompatible with future versions of our emerging technology offerings, our relationship with these third parties may deteriorate, or our agreements with these third parties may expire or be terminated. We may face legal or business disputes with licensors that may threaten or lead to the disruption of inbound licensing relationships. In order to remain in compliance with the terms of our licenses, we must carefully monitor and manage our use of third-party components, including both proprietary and open source license terms that may require the licensing or public disclosure of our intellectual property without compensation or on undesirable terms. Additionally, some of these licenses may not be available for use in the future on terms that may be acceptable or that allow our emerging product offerings to remain competitive. Our inability to obtain licenses or rights on favorable terms could have a material effect on our emerging technology offerings. Moreover, it is possible that as a consequence of a future merger or acquisition we may be involved in, third parties may obtain licenses to some of our intellectual property rights or our business may be subject to certain restrictions that were not in place prior to such transaction. Because the availability and cost from third parties depends upon the willingness of third parties to deal with us on the terms we request, there is a risk that third parties who license our competitors will either refuse to license us at all, or refuse to license us on terms equally favorable to those granted to our competitors. Consequently, we may lose a competitive advantage with respect to these intellectual property rights or we may be required to enter into costly arrangements in order to obtain these rights. 37 Risks Relating to the Spin-Off and our Separation from Honeywell If the Spin-Off were determined not to qualify as tax-free for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we could have an indemnification obligation to Honeywell, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. If, as a result of any of our representations being untrue or our covenants being breached, the Spin-Off were determined not to qualify for non- recognition of gain or loss under Section 355 and related provisions of the Code, we could be required to indemnify Honeywell for the resulting taxes and related expenses. Further, if any pre-spin restructuring activities that were initiated by Honeywell were determined to be taxable and benefit the Company, we could be required to indemnify Honeywell. Those amounts could be material. Any such indemnification obligation could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, if we or our stockholders were to engage in transactions that resulted in a 50% or greater change by vote or value in the ownership of our stock during the four-year period beginning on the date that begins two years before the date of the Distribution, the Spin-Off would generally be taxable to Honeywell, but not to stockholders, under Section 355(e), unless it were established that such transactions and the Spin-Off were not part of a plan or series of related transactions. If the Spin-Off were taxable to Honeywell due to such a 50% or greater change in ownership of our stock, Honeywell would recognize gain equal to the excess of the fair market value on the Distribution Date of our common stock distributed to Honeywell stockholders over Honeywell’s tax basis in our common stock, and we generally would be required to indemnify Honeywell for the tax on such gain and related expenses. Those amounts would be material. Any such indemnification obligation could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Under the terms of the PSA and the Transaction, the Plan, if confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, will include a global settlement with Honeywell providing for (a) the full and final satisfaction, settlement, release, and discharge of all liabilities under or related to the Indemnity Agreements and the Tax Matters Agreement and (b) the dismissal with prejudice of the Honeywell Litigation in exchange for (x) a $375 million cash payment at Emergence and (y) the Series B Preferred Stock. The terms of the PSA, the Transaction and the Plan remain subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court. There can be no assurances that we will obtain the approval of the Bankruptcy Court and consummate the Transaction. For more information on the risks related to the approval of the Plan, see “We may not be able to complete any Bankruptcy Court-approved reorganization of our Company or sales of our Company or assets through the chapter 11 process, or we may not be able to realize adequate consideration for such reorganization or sales, which would adversely affect our financial condition”. Our indebtedness could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In connection with the Spin-Off, we incurred substantial indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount of approximately $1,660 million, of which $1,628 million of the net proceeds were transferred to Honeywell substantially concurrently with the consummation of the Spin-Off. In connection with the Chapter 11 Cases, we incurred an additional indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount of $200 million. We historically relied upon Honeywell to fund our working capital requirements and other cash requirements. We are now responsible for servicing our own debt and obtaining and maintaining sufficient working capital and other funds to satisfy our cash requirements. Due to our separation from Honeywell and the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases our access to and cost of debt financing will be different from our historical access to and cost of debt financing. Differences in access to and cost of debt financing may result in differences in the interest rate charged to us on financings, as well as the amount of indebtedness, types of financing structures and debt markets that may be available to us. Our ability to make payments on and to refinance our indebtedness, including the debt incurred in connection with the Spin-Off and the Chapter 11 Cases, as well as any future debt that we may incur, will depend on our ability to generate cash in the future from operations, financings or asset sales. Our ability to generate cash is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control. 38 The terms of our indebtedness restrict our current and future operations, particularly our ability to incur debt that we may need to fund initiatives in response to changes in our business, the industries in which we operate, the economy and governmental regulations. The terms of our Prepetition Credit Agreement and DIP Credit Agreement include a number of restrictive covenants that impose significant operating and financial restrictions on us and our subsidiaries and limit our ability to engage in actions that may be in our long-term best interests. These may restrict our and our subsidiaries’ ability to take some or all of the following actions: • • • • • • • • • • • • incur or guarantee additional indebtedness or sell disqualified or preferred stock; pay dividends on, make distributions in respect of, repurchase or redeem capital stock; make investments or acquisitions; sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of certain assets; create liens; enter into sale/leaseback transactions; enter into agreements restricting the ability to pay dividends or make other intercompany transfers; consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our or our subsidiaries’ assets; enter into transactions with affiliates; prepay, repurchase or redeem certain kinds of indebtedness; issue or sell stock of our subsidiaries; and/or significantly change the nature of our business. Moreover, as a result of all of these restrictions, we may be limited in how we conduct our business and pursue our strategy, unable to raise additional debt financing to operate during general economic or business downturns, or unable to compete effectively or to take advantage of new business opportunities. Furthermore, the lenders of this indebtedness have required that we pledge our assets as security for our repayment obligations and that we abide by certain financial or operational covenants. Our ability to comply with such covenants and restrictions has been and may continue to be affected by events beyond our control, including prevailing economic, political, social, financial and industry conditions, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. The commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases constituted an event of default that accelerated our obligations and terminated undrawn commitments, as applicable, under the Prepetition Credit Agreement. The Prepetition Credit Agreement provides that as a result of the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, the principal, interest and all other amounts due thereunder shall be immediately due and payable. Any efforts to enforce the payment obligations under the Prepetition Credit Agreement are automatically stayed as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases, and the creditors’ rights of enforcement in respect of the Prepetition Credit Agreement are subject to the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. Under the DIP Credit Agreement, a breach of any of the covenants listed above, if applicable, could result in an event of default. If an event of default occurred, the lenders under our DIP Credit Agreement would have the right to accelerate the repayment of such debt. We might not have, or be able to obtain, sufficient funds to make these accelerated payments, and lenders could then proceed against any collateral. Any subsequent replacement of the agreements governing such indebtedness, or any new indebtedness could have similar or greater restrictions. The occurrence and ramifications of an event of default could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. 39 We may have potential business conflicts of interest with Honeywell with respect to our past and ongoing relationships. Conflicts of interest may arise between Honeywell and us in a number of areas relating to our past and ongoing relationships, including: • • • • labor, tax, employee benefit, indemnification and other matters arising from our separation from Honeywell; intellectual property matters; employee recruiting and retention; and business combinations involving our company (including, without limitation, the Transaction). The Chapter 11 Cases may exacerbate any potential conflicts and make resolution of any potential conflicts more difficult to achieve outside of the Bankruptcy Court. We may not be able to resolve any potential conflicts, and, even if we do so, the resolution may be less favorable to us than if we were dealing with a party with whom we were not previously affiliated. Certain of our directors and employees may have actual or potential conflicts of interest because of their financial interests in Honeywell. Because of their former positions with Honeywell, certain of our executive officers and directors own equity interests in Honeywell. Continuing ownership of Honeywell shares could create, or appear to create, potential conflicts of interest if we and Honeywell face decisions that could have implications for both us and Honeywell. The allocation of intellectual property rights between Honeywell and us as part of the Spin-Off, and our shared use of certain intellectual property rights, could adversely impact our reputation, our ability to enforce certain intellectual property rights that are important to us and our competitive position. In connection with the Spin-Off, we entered into agreements with Honeywell governing the allocation of intellectual property rights related to our business. These agreements could adversely affect our position and options relating to intellectual property enforcement, licensing negotiations and monetization. We also may not have sufficient rights to grant sublicenses of intellectual property used in our business. These circumstances could adversely affect our ability to protect our competitive position in the industry. Risks Relating to our Common Stock An active trading market for our common stock may not be available, and our stock price may fluctuate significantly. The market price of our common stock may fluctuate widely, depending on many factors, some of which may be beyond our control, including: • • • • • • • • the Chapter 11 Cases, including the approval by the Bankruptcy Court of entry into the PSA and the ECBA, the terms of the Transaction and confirmation of the Plan; actual or anticipated fluctuations in our results of operations due to factors related to our business; success or failure of our business strategies; competition and industry capacity; changes in interest rates and other factors that affect earnings and cash flow; our level of indebtedness, our ability to make payments on or service our indebtedness and our ability to obtain financing as needed; our ability to retain and recruit qualified personnel; our quarterly or annual earnings, or those of other companies in our industry; 40 • • • • • • • • • • • announcements by us or our competitors of significant acquisitions or dispositions; changes in accounting standards, policies, guidance, interpretations or principles; the failure of securities analysts to cover, or positively cover, our common stock after the Spin-Off; changes in earnings estimates by securities analysts or our ability to meet those estimates; the operating and stock price performance of other comparable companies; investor perception of our company and our industry; overall market fluctuations unrelated to our operating performance; results from any material litigation or government investigation; changes in laws and regulations (including tax laws and regulations) affecting our business; changes in capital gains taxes and taxes on dividends affecting stockholders; and general economic conditions and other external factors. Low trading volume for our stock, which may occur if an active trading market is not available, among other reasons, would amplify the effect of the above factors on our stock price volatility. The delisting of our common stock from New York Stock Exchange has limited and could continue to limit the liquidity of our common stock, increase the volatility in the price of our common stock, and hinder our ability to raise capital. Should the market price of our stock drop significantly, stockholders may institute securities class action lawsuits against us. A lawsuit against us could cause us to incur substantial costs and could divert the time and attention of our management and other resources. Certain provisions in our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated By-Laws and Delaware law may discourage takeovers. Several provisions of our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, Amended and Restated By-Laws and Delaware law may discourage, delay or prevent a merger or acquisition. These include, among others, provisions that: • • • • • provide for staggered terms for directors on our Board for a period following the Spin-Off; do not permit our stockholders to act by written consent and require that stockholder action must take place at an annual or special meeting of our stockholders, in each case except as such rights may otherwise be provided to holders of preferred stock; establish advance notice requirements for stockholder nominations and proposals; limit the persons who may call special meetings of stockholders; and limit our ability to enter into business combination transactions. These and other provisions of our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, Amended and Restated By-Laws and Delaware law may discourage, delay or prevent certain types of transactions involving an actual or a threatened acquisition or change in control of Garrett, including unsolicited takeover attempts, even though the transaction may offer our stockholders the opportunity to sell their shares of our common stock at a price above the prevailing market price. Under the terms of the Transaction under the PSA, the Plan, if confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, may result in the removal or alteration of some or all of these provisions, subject to negotiation of definitive corporate governance documentation with the CO Group. There can be no assurances that any definitive corporate governance documentation with the CO Group will not continue to discourage, delay or prevent certain types of transactions involving an actual or a threatened acquisition or change in control of Garrett, including unsolicited takeover attempts, even though the transaction may offer our stockholders the opportunity to sell their shares of our common stock at a price above the prevailing market price. 41 Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation designates the courts of the State of Delaware as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by our stockholders, which could limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or our directors, officers or other employees. Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides, in all cases to the fullest extent permitted by law, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery located within the State of Delaware will be the sole and exclusive forum for any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of Garrett, any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any of our directors, officers or other employees or stockholders to us or our stockholders, any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to the Delaware General Corporate Law (“DGCL”) or as to which the DGCL confers jurisdiction on the Court of Chancery located in the State of Delaware or any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine or any other action asserting an “internal corporate claim” as that term is defined in Section 115 of the DGCL. However, if the Court of Chancery within the State of Delaware does not have jurisdiction, the action may be brought in any other state or federal court located within the State of Delaware. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring or holding any interest in shares of our capital stock will be deemed to have notice of and to have consented to these provisions. This provision may limit a stockholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with us or our directors, officers or other employees, which may discourage such lawsuits. Alternatively, if a court were to find this provision of our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation inapplicable to, or unenforceable in respect of, one or more of the specified types of actions or proceedings, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such matters in other jurisdictions. General Risk Factors System or service failures, including as a result of cyber or other security incidents, could disrupt business operations, result in the loss of critical and confidential information, and adversely impact our reputation and results of operations. We deploy and maintain IT and engineering systems. Our systems involve sensitive information and may be conducted in hazardous environments. As a result, we are subject to systems or service failures, not only resulting from our failures or the failures of third-party service providers, natural disasters, power shortages or terrorist attacks, but also from exposure to cyber or other security threats. Global cybersecurity threats and incidents can range from uncoordinated individual attempts to gain unauthorized access to IT systems to sophisticated and targeted measures known as advanced persistent threats, directed at the Company, our products, our customers and/or our third-party service providers, including cloud providers. There has been an increase in the frequency and sophistication of cyber and other security threats we face, and our customers are increasingly requiring cyber and other security protections and mandating cyber and other security standards in our products. Cyber and other security incidents, depending on their nature and scope, could potentially result in the misappropriation, destruction, corruption or unavailability of critical data and confidential or proprietary information (our own or that of third parties) and the disruption of business operations. Moreover, employee error or malfeasance, faulty password management or other intentional or inadvertent non-compliance with our security protocols may result in a breach of our information systems. Cyber and other security incidents aimed at the software embedded in our products could lead to third- party claims that our product failures have caused a similar range of damages to our customers, and this risk is enhanced by the increasingly connected nature of our products. The potential consequences of a material cyber or other security incident include financial loss, reputational damage, litigation with third parties, theft of intellectual property, fines levied by the United States Federal Trade Commission, diminution in the value of our investment in research, development and engineering, and increased cyber and other security protection and remediation costs due to the increasing sophistication and proliferation of threats, which in turn could adversely affect our competitiveness and results of operations. In addition to any costs resulting from contract performance or required corrective action, these incidents could generate increased costs or loss of revenue if our customers choose to postpone or cancel previously scheduled orders or decide not to renew any of our existing contracts. The costs related to cyber or other security incidents may not be fully insured or indemnified by other means. The successful assertion of a large claim against us with respect to a cyber or other security incident could seriously harm our business. Even if not successful, these claims could result in significant legal and other costs, may be a distraction to our management and harm our customer relationships, as well as our reputation. 42 If we fail to maintain proper and effective internal controls, our ability to produce accurate and timely financial statements could be impaired and investors’ views of us could be harmed. We are required to perform system and process evaluation and testing of our internal control over financial reporting to allow management and our independent registered public accounting firm to report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. If we are not able to comply with the requirements of Section 404, the market price of shares of common stock could decline and we could be subject to sanctions or investigations by the SEC or other regulatory authorities, which would require additional financial and management resources. Our ability to successfully comply with Section 404 requires us to be able to prepare timely and accurate financial statements. Any delay in the implementation of, or disruption in the transition to, new or enhanced systems, procedures or controls, may cause our operations to suffer, and we may be unable to conclude that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, and our independent registered public accounting firm may provide an adverse opinion on our internal control over financial reporting. In the course of preparing our Annual Report on Form 10-K and our Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2018, our management determined that there was a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting relating to the supporting evidence for our liability to Honeywell under the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement that has since been remediated. Even though we have concluded, and our auditors have concurred, that that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2020, we could identify additional material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting in the future, which could cause us to have to restate our Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. In the event of an additional material weakness or restatement, the market price of shares of common stock could decline and we could be subject to sanctions or investigations by the SEC or other regulatory authorities, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. Your percentage ownership in us may be diluted in the future. Your percentage ownership in us may be diluted in the future because of equity issuances pursuant to the Plan, if confirmed, for acquisitions, capital market transactions or otherwise, including equity awards that we may grant to our directors, officers and other employees. Our Board has adopted and Honeywell, as our sole shareholder, approved, the 2018 Stock Incentive Plan of Garrett and its Affiliates (the “Equity Plan”) for the benefit of certain of our current and future employees and other service providers. Our non-employee directors are eligible to participate in the 2018 Stock Incentive Plan for Non-Employee Directors. Awards made under such plans will have a dilutive effect on our earnings per share, which could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Under the terms of the Transaction, if approved by the Bankruptcy Court, the CO Group and certain of our existing stockholders will be issued Series A Preferred Stock which will be convertible in certain circumstances into shares of common stock. Any such conversion may significantly dilute the percentage ownership of our current stockholders. In addition, our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation authorizes us to issue, without the approval of our stockholders, one or more classes or series of preferred stock having such designation, powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other special rights, including preferences over our common stock with respect to dividends and distributions, as our board of directors may generally determine. The terms of one or more classes or series of preferred stock could dilute the voting power or reduce the value of our common stock. For example, we could grant the holders of preferred stock the right to elect some number of the members of our board of directors in all events or upon the happening of specified events, or the right to veto specified transactions. Similarly, the repurchase or redemption rights or liquidation preferences that we could assign to holders of preferred stock could affect the residual value of our common stock. From time-to-time, we may opportunistically evaluate and pursue acquisition opportunities, including acquisitions for which the consideration thereof may consist partially or entirely of newly-issued shares of our common stock and, therefore, such transactions, if consummated, would dilute the voting power and/or reduce the value of our common stock. 43 Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments None. Item 2. Properties We have created a geographic footprint that emphasizes locating R&D, engineering and manufacturing capabilities in close physical proximity to our customers, thereby enabling us to manage our environmental footprint to meet our sustainability targets and to adopt technologies and products for the specific vehicle types sold in each geographic market. Over the past several years, we have invested heavily to be close to our Chinese, Indian and other high-growth region OEM customers to be able to offer world-leading technologies, localized engineering support and unparalleled manufacturing productivity. As of December 31, 2020, we owned or leased 13 manufacturing sites, five R&D centers and 11 close-to- customer engineering sites. We also have many smaller sales offices, warehouses, cybersecurity and IVHM sites and other investments strategically located throughout the world. The following table shows the ownership and regional distribution of our manufacturing sites, R&D centers and customer engineering sites: Manufacturing Sites R&D Centers Close-to-Customer Engineering Sites Ownership Regional distribution Owned 9 1 Leased 4 4 North America 2 1 Europe, Middle East & Africa 5 2 South Asia & Asia Pacific 5 2 South America 1 — — 11 2 5 3 1 Total 13 5 11 We continually and proactively review our real estate portfolio and develop footprint strategies to support our customers’ global plans, while at the same time supporting our technical needs and optimizing operating cost base. We expect our evolving portfolio will meet current and anticipated future needs. Item 3. Legal Proceedings On December 2, 2019, the Company and its subsidiary, Garrett ASASCO Inc., filed a Summons with Notice in the Commercial Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York (the “NY Supreme Court”) commencing an action (the “Action”) against Honeywell, certain of Honeywell’s subsidiaries and certain of Honeywell’s employees for declaratory judgment, breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duties, aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duties, corporate waste, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and unjust enrichment. On January 15, 2020, the Company and Garrett ASASCO Inc. filed a Complaint in the NY Supreme Court in connection with the Action. The lawsuit arises from the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement. The Company is seeking declaratory relief, compensatory damages in an amount to be determined at trial rescission of the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement, attorneys’ fees and costs, and such other and further relief as the Court may deem just and proper. Among other claims, Garrett asserts that Honeywell is not entitled to indemnification because it improperly seeks indemnification for amounts attributable to punitive damages and intentional misconduct, and because it has failed to establish other prerequisites for indemnification under New York law. Specifically, the claim asserts that Honeywell has failed to establish its right to indemnity for each and every asbestos settlement of the thousands for which it seeks indemnification. The Action seeks to establish that the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement is not enforceable, in whole or in part. On March 5, 2020, Honeywell filed a “Notice of Motion to Dismiss Garrett’s Complaint.” On September 20, 2020, Garrett and certain of its subsidiaries each filed a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York. On September 23, 2020, Garrett removed the Action to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and on September 24, 2020, the Action was referred to the Bankruptcy Court, where the case is currently pending. A pre-trial conference took place on October 22, 2020. The Court heard argument on Honeywell’s pending motion to dismiss on November 18, 2020; the Court has not yet issued a decision. On November 2, 2020, the Garrett entities that are Debtors and Debtors in Possession filed a Motion Pursuant to Sections 105(a) and 502(c) To Establish Procedures for Estimating The Maximum Amount Of Honeywell’s Claims And Related Relief (the “Motion”). The Court heard argument on the Motion on November 18. The Court ordered an estimation proceeding to take place to estimate all of Honeywell’s claims against the Garrett entities that are Debtors and Debtors in Possession. On December 18, 2020, Honeywell filed proofs of claim in the Chapter 11 Cases, asserting that the Company owes at least $1.9 billion. The Bankruptcy Court was scheduled to estimate the amount of Honeywell’s claims in an estimation proceeding that was scheduled to commence on February 1, 2021. As noted below, the estimation proceeding has been stayed by order of the Bankruptcy Court. 44 On January 11, 2021, the Company announced that it had agreed to settle Honeywell’s claims as part of the Plan. The Plan is subject to various conditions, including approval by the Bankruptcy Court. Under the Plan settlement, Honeywell would receive a $375 million payment and Series B Preferred Stock payable in installments of $35 million in 2022, and $100 million annually 2023-2030. The Company would have the option to prepay the Series B Preferred Stock in full at any time at a call price equivalent to $584 million as of the Emergence (representing the present value of the installments at a 7.25% discount rate). The Company will also have the option to make a partial payment of the Series B Preferred Stock, reducing the present value to $400 million, at any time within 18 months of Emergence. On January 15, 2021, the Bankruptcy Court ordered that the Action and the estimation proceeding both be stayed pending the Bankruptcy Court’s consideration of Plan. The confirmation hearing for the Plan is currently scheduled to take place in April 2021, however, the hearing may be rescheduled for a later date. The Debtors’ Chapter 11 Cases are being jointly administered under the caption “In re: Garrett Motion Inc., 20-12212.” For additional information regarding the Chapter 11 Cases, see Note 1 Background and Basis of Preparation and Note 2 Reorganization and Chapter 11 Proceedings of the Notes to the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. On September 25, 2020, a putative securities class action complaint was filed against Garrett Motion Inc. and certain current and former Garrett officers and directors, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The case bears the caption: Steven Husson, Individually and On Behalf of All Others Similarly Situated, v. Garrett Motion Inc., Olivier Rabiller, Alessandro Gili, Peter Bracke, Sean Deason, and Su Ping Lu, Case No. 1:20-cv-07992-JPC (SDNY) (the “Husson Action”). The Husson Action asserts claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act, for securities fraud and control person liability. On September 28, 2020, the plaintiff sought to voluntarily dismiss his claim against Garrett Motion Inc. in light of the Company’s bankruptcy, this request was granted. On October 5, 2020, another putative securities class action complaint was filed against certain current and former Garrett officers and directors, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. This case bears the caption: The Gabelli Asset Fund, The Gabelli Dividend & Income Trust, The Gabelli Value 25 Fund Inc., The Gabelli Equity Trust Inc., SM Investors LP and SM Investors II LP, on behalf of themselves and all others similarly situated, v. Su Ping Lu, Olivier Rabiller, Alessandro Gili, Peter Bracke, Sean Deason, Craig Balis, Thierry Mabru, Russell James, Carlos M. Cardoso, Maura J. Clark, Courtney M. Enghauser, Susan L. Main, Carsten Reinhardt, and Scott A. Tozier, Case No. 1:20-cv-08296-JPC (SDNY) (the “Gabelli Action”). The Gabelli Action also asserts claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act. On November 5, 2020, another putative securities class action complaint was filed against certain current and former Garrett officers and directors, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. This case bears the caption: Joseph Froehlich, Individually and On Behalf of All Others Similarly Situated, v. Olivier Rabiller, Allesandro Gili, Peter Bracke, Sean Deason, and Su Ping Lu, Case No. 1:20-cv-09279-JPC (SDNY) (the “Froehlich Action”). The Froehlich Action also asserts claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act. All three cases seek compensatory damages as well as interest, fees and costs. All three actions are currently assigned to Judge John P. Cronan. Su Ping Lu filed a waiver of service in the Gabelli Action on November 10, 2020. On November 24, 2020, competing motions were filed seeking the appointment of lead plaintiff and lead counsel and the consolidation of the Husson, Gabelli, and Froehlich Actions. On December 8, 2020, counsel for the plaintiffs in the Gabelli Action – the Entwistle & Cappucci law firm – filed an unopposed stipulation and proposed order that would (1) appoint the plaintiffs in the Gabelli Action – the “Gabelli Entities” – the lead plaintiffs; (2) would appoint Entwistle & Cappucci as lead counsel for the plaintiff class; (3) consolidate the Gabelli Action, the Husson Action, and the Froehlich Action; (4) set a date by which lead plaintiff would file a consolidated amended complaint by February 25, 2021; and (5) set a date by which defendants shall respond to a consolidated amended complaint of April 26, 2021. On January 21, 2021, the district court issued an order consolidating the three actions as In re Garrett Motion Inc. Securities Litigation, Case Number 20 Civ. 7992 (JPC), and appointing the Gabelli entities as the lead plaintiffs. The Company’s insurer, AIG has accepted the defense, subject the customary reservation of rights. The Bankruptcy Court has set a bar date of March 1, 2021 for, among others, current and former shareholders to file securities-related claims against the Company. We are not yet able to assess the likelihood that any such claims will 45 be allowed. To the extent allowed, each holder of such claims shall be entitled to receive, (x) its pro rata share of the aggregate cash payments received or recoverable from any insurance policies of the Company on account of any such allowed claims and (y) solely to the extent that such payments are less than the amount of its allowed claim, such treatment that is consistent with section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code and otherwise acceptable to the Debtors and the parties to the PSA in accordance with the PSA. In September 2020, the Brazilian tax authorities issued an infraction notice against Garrett Motion Industria Automotiva Brasil Ltda, challenging the use of certain tax credits between January 2017 and February 2020. The infraction notice results in a loss contingency that may or may not ultimately be incurred by the Company. The estimated total amount of the contingency as of December 31, 2020 was $29 million including penalties and interest. The Company appealed the infraction notice on October 23, 2020. The Company believes, based on management’s assessment and the advice of external legal counsel, that it has meritorious arguments in connection with the infraction notice and any liability for the infraction notice is currently not probable. Accordingly, no accrual is required at this time. On November 13, 2020, certain of the Debtors (the “Plaintiffs”) filed a complaint in the Bankruptcy Court against the indenture trustee (the “Indenture Trustee”) of the 5.125% senior notes due 2026 (the “Senior Notes”) seeking declaratory judgment on two claims for relief that the Debtors do not owe, and the holders of the Senior Notes (the “Noteholders”) are not entitled to, any make-whole premium under the Indenture (the “Make-Whole” and such litigation, the “Make-Whole Litigation”). Certain Noteholders have contended in these Chapter 11 Cases that the Noteholders are entitled to payment of the Make-Whole under the terms of the Indenture, which provide for the payment of the Make-Whole if the Debtors exercise their right to redeem the Senior Notes prior to maturity, as a result of the Debtors’ commencement of their Chapter 11 Cases. The Plaintiffs believe that the Noteholders are not entitled to any Make-Whole because the Debtors have not exercised their right of redemption as contemplated by the Indenture and, in the alternative, the Make-Whole should be disallowed as unmatured interest pursuant to Section 502(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code. On January 8, 2021, the Indenture Trustee filed an answer to the Debtors’ complaint. Pursuant to the PSA, the Debtors have agreed to suspend all litigation activities related to and stay the Make- Whole Litigation through Emergence (the “Effective Date”) and to dismiss with prejudice such proceedings upon Emergence. For additional information regarding our legal proceedings, see Note 23, Commitments and Contingencies of the Notes to the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. We are involved in various other lawsuits, claims and proceedings incident to the operation of our businesses, including those pertaining to product liability, product safety, environmental, safety and health, intellectual property, employment, commercial and contractual matters and various other matters. Although the outcome of any such lawsuit, claim or proceeding cannot be predicted with certainty and some may be disposed of unfavorably to us, we do not currently believe that such lawsuits, claims or proceedings will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. We accrue for potential liabilities in a manner consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Accordingly, we accrue for a liability when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability is reasonably estimable. Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures Not Applicable. 46 PART II Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities Market Information On October 1, 2018, we became an independent publicly-traded company through a pro rata distribution by Honeywell of 100% of the outstanding shares of us to Honeywell's stockholders (the “Spin-Off”). Each Honeywell stockholder of record received one share of our common stock for every 10 shares of Honeywell common stock held on the record date. Approximately 74 million shares of our common stock were distributed on October 1, 2018 to Honeywell stockholders. In connection with the separation, our common stock began trading "regular-way" under the ticker symbol "GTX" on the New York Stock Exchange on October 1, 2018. On September 20, 2020, the Company was notified by the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) that, as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases, and in accordance with Section 802.01D of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, the NYSE had commenced proceedings to delist the Company’s common stock from the NYSE. The NYSE indefinitely suspended trading of the Company’s common stock on September 21, 2020. The Company determined not to appeal the NYSE’s determination. On October 8, 2020, the NYSE filed a Form 25 to initiate the delisting of the common stock of the Company, and the delisting became effective at the opening of business on October 19, 2020. Trading of the Company’s common stock now occurs on the OTC Pink Market under the symbol “GTXMQ.” Any over-the-counter market quotations of the Company’s common stock reflect inter- dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission and may not necessarily represent actual transactions. Holders of Record As of February 4, 2021, there were 36,208 stockholders of record of our common stock. Dividend Policy We are unable to pay dividends during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Stock Performance Graph The following graph and table illustrate the total return from October 1, 2018 through December 31, 2020, for (i) our common stock, (ii) the Standard and Poor’s (“S&P”) Small Cap 600 Index, (iii) the average stock performance of a group consisting of the peer companies disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (“2019 Peer Group”), consisting of BorgWarner Inc., Allison Transmission Holdings, Inc., and Delphi Technologies Plc, and (iv) the average stock performance of a group consisting of the Company’s peer companies for the year ended December 31, 2020 (“2020 Peer Group”), consisting of Adient plc, Allison Transmission Holdings, Inc., American Axle & Manufacturing Holdings, Inc., Aptiv PLC, Autoliv Inc., BorgWarner Inc., Dana Incorporated, Gentex Corporation, Lear Corporation, Magna International Inc. Tenneco Inc., Visteon Corporation and Veoneer, Inc. In 2020, the Company expanded its peer group following consolidation among the 2019 Peer Group. Delphi Technologies plc (“Delphi”) was previously included in the Company’s 2019 Peer Group and was acquired by BorgWarner Inc. during the year ended December 31, 2020. Accordingly, Delphi has been included in the 2019 Peer Group only through the date it was acquired. The Company will cease presenting the 2019 Peer Group in future years. The 2020 Peer Group is used routinely by management for benchmarking purposes. The graph and the table assume that $100 was invested on October 1, 2018 in each of our common stock, the S&P Small Cap 600 Index, the common stock of the 2019 Peer Group and the 2020 Peer Group, and that any dividends were reinvested. The comparisons reflected in the graph and table are not intended to forecast the future performance of our common stock and may not be indicative of our future performance.

Selected Financial Data Selected Historical Consolidated and Combined Financial Data The following tables present certain selected historical consolidated and combined financial information as of and for each of the years in the five- year period ended December 31, 2020. Prior to the Spin-Off on October 1, 2018, our historical financial statements were prepared on a stand-alone combined basis and were derived from the consolidated financial statements and accounting records of Honeywell. Accordingly, for periods prior to October 1, 2018, our financial statements are presented on a combined basis and for the periods subsequent to October 1, 2018 are presented on a consolidated basis (collectively, the historical financial statements for all periods presented are referred to as “Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements”). The selected historical consolidated and combined financial data as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 and for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018 are derived from the historical audited Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements as included in this Form 10-K. The selected historical combined financial data as of December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016 and for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 are derived from historical audited combined financial statements not included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The selected historical consolidated and combined financial data presented below should be read in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and our historical Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements and the accompanying Notes thereto included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. For each of the periods presented prior to the Spin-Off, our business was wholly owned by Honeywell. The financial information included for these periods may not necessarily reflect our financial position, results of operations and cash flows in the future or what our financial position, results of operations and cash flows would have been had we been an independent, publicly traded company during such periods. In addition, our historical consolidated and combined financial information does not reflect changes that we have experienced or expect to continue to experience in the future as a result of our separation from Honeywell, including changes in the financing, operations, cost structure and personnel needs of our business. Further, the historical consolidated and combined financial information includes allocations of certain Honeywell corporate expenses, as described in Note 27 Related Party Transactions with Honeywell in our Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. We believe the assumptions and methodologies underlying the allocation of these expenses are reasonable. However, such expenses may not be indicative of the actual level of expense that we would have incurred if we had operated as an independent, publicly traded company or of the costs expected to be incurred in the future. 2020 2019 Year Ended December 31, 2018 (Dollars in millions except per share amounts) 2017 2016 Selected Statement of Operations Information: Net sales Net income (loss) Earnings per common share (3) Basic: Diluted: Weighted average common shares (3) Basic: Diluted: Selected Balance Sheet Information: Total assets Long-term debt Total liabilities Total deficit $ $ $ $ 3,034 80 $ $ 3,248 313 $ $ 3,375 $ 1,206 (1) $ 3,096 $ (983) (2) $ 2,997 199 1.06 1.05 $ $ 4.20 4.12 $ $ 16.28 16.21 $ $ (13.27) (13.27) $ $ 2.69 2.69 75,543,461 76,100,509 74,602,868 75,934,373 74,059,240 74,402,148 74,070,852 74,070,852 74,070,852 74,070,852 2020 2019 As of December 31, 2018 (Dollars in millions) 2017 2016 $ $ $ $ 3,017 1,082 5,325 (2,308) $ $ $ $ 2,275 1,409 4,408 (2,133) $ $ $ $ 2,124 1,569 4,641 (2,517) $ $ $ $ 2,997 — 5,192 (2,195) $ $ $ $ 2,661 — 3,882 (1,221) 49 (1) (2) (3) 2018 Net income was impacted by an internal restructuring of Garrett’s business resulting in a tax benefit of $907 million. 2017 Net income was impacted by the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) resulting in a tax expense of $1,335 million. On October 1, 2018, the date of consummation of the Spin-Off, 74,070,852 shares of the Company’s common stock were distributed to Honeywell stockholders of record as of September 18, 2018. Basic and Diluted EPS for all periods prior to the Spin-Off reflect the number of distributed shares, or 74,070,852 shares. These shares were treated as issued and outstanding from January 1, 2016 for purposes of calculating historical earnings per share. Non-GAAP Measures It is management’s intent to provide non-GAAP financial information to supplement the understanding of our business operations and performance, and it should be considered by the reader in addition to, but not instead of, the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Each non-GAAP financial measure is presented along with the most directly comparable GAAP measure so as not to imply that more emphasis should be placed on the non- GAAP measure. The non-GAAP financial information presented may be determined or calculated differently by other companies and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. Additionally, the non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s operating results as reported under GAAP.

We define “EBITDA” as our net income (loss) calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, plus the sum of net interest expense (income), tax expense (benefit) and depreciation. We define “Adjusted EBITDA” as EBITDA, plus the sum of non-operating (income) expense, other expenses, net (which consists of indemnification, asbestos and environmental expenses), stock compensation expense, reorganization items, net, repositioning charges, foreign exchange gain (loss) on debt, net of related hedging (gain) loss, Spin-Off costs, professional services costs and Capital Tax expense. We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are important indicators of operating performance and provide useful information for investors because: 50 • • EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA exclude the effects of income taxes, as well as the effects of financing and investing activities by eliminating the effects of interest and depreciation expenses and therefore more closely measure our operational performance; and certain adjustment items, while periodically affecting our results, may vary significantly from period to period and have disproportionate effect in a given period, which affects comparability of our results. In addition, our management may use Adjusted EBITDA in setting performance incentive targets in order to align performance measurement with operational performance. (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) (7) (8) (9) The accounting for the majority of our asbestos-related liability payments and accounts payable reflect the terms of the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement with Honeywell entered into on September 12, 2018, under which Garrett ASASCO is currently required to make payments to Honeywell in amounts equal to 90% of Honeywell’s asbestos-related liability payments and accounts payable, primarily related to the Bendix business in the United States, as well as certain environmental-related liability payments and accounts payable and non-United States asbestos- related liability payments and accounts payable, in each case related to legacy elements of the Business, including the legal costs of defending and resolving such liabilities, less 90% of Honeywell’s net insurance receipts and, as may be applicable, certain other recoveries associated with such liabilities. The Plan (as defined below), if confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, will include a global settlement with Honeywell providing for, among other things, the full and final satisfaction, settlement, release, and discharge of all liabilities under or related to the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement, that certain Indemnification Guarantee Agreement, dated as of September 27, 2018 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time), by and among Honeywell ASASCO 2 Inc. as payee, Garrett ASASCO as payor, and certain subsidiary guarantors as defined therein (the “Guarantee Agreement,” and together with the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement, the “Indemnity Agreements”) and the Tax Matters Agreement. See Note 23, Commitments and Contingencies of Notes to the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. Non-operating (income) expense adjustment includes the non-service component of pension expense and other expense, net and excludes interest income, equity income of affiliates, and the impact of foreign exchange. The Company has applied ASC 852 in preparing its Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. ASC 852 requires the financial statements for periods subsequent to the Petition Date to distinguish transactions and events that are directly associated with the Company's reorganization from the ongoing operations of the business. Accordingly, certain expenses and gains incurred during the Chapter 11 Cases are recorded within Reorganization items, net in the Consolidated and Combined Statements of Operations. See Note 2, Reorganization and Chapter 11 Proceedings of Notes to the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. Stock compensation expense adjustment includes only non-cash expenses. Repositioning charges adjustment primarily includes severance costs related to restructuring projects to improve future productivity. Spin-Off costs primarily include costs incurred for the set-up of the IT, Legal, Finance, Communications and Human Resources functions after the Spin-Off from Honeywell on October 1, 2018. Professional service costs consist of professional service fees related to strategic planning for the Company in the period before the decision to file for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in September 2020. We consider these costs to be unrelated to our ongoing core business operations. The canton of Vaud, Switzerland generally provides for crediting the cantonal corporate income tax against capital tax. There was no income tax payable for the year ended December 31, 2020 and therefore the 2020 capital tax due of $2 million was recorded in Selling, General, and Administrative expenses. Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP) decreased by $143 million in 2020 compared to 2019. The decrease was primarily due to unfavorable impacts of volume ($94 million), selling, general and administrative expenses ($28 million), productivity, net of mix ($26 million), inflation ($13 million) and price ($18 million), partially offset by the favorable impact of lower research and development expenses ($18 million) and foreign exchange rates including the prior year’s hedge losses ($18 million). 51 Cash flow from operations less Expenditures for property, plant and equipment(1) Net cash (used for) provided by operating activities — GAAP Expenditures for property, plant and equipment Cash flow from operations less Expenditures for property, plant and equipment (Non-GAAP) 2020 Year Ended December 31, 2019 (Dollars in millions) 2018 25 (80) 242 (102) $ (55) $ 140 $ 373 (95) 278 (1) Cash flow from operations less Expenditures for property, plant and equipment is a non-GAAP financial measure that reflects an additional way of viewing our liquidity that, when viewed with our GAAP results, provides a supplemental understanding of factors and trends affecting our cash flows. Cash flow from operations less Expenditures for property, plant and equipment is calculated by subtracting Expenditures for property, plant and equipment from Net cash provided by (used for) operating activities. We believe it is a more conservative measure of cash flow, and therefore useful to investors, because purchases of fixed assets are necessary for ongoing operations. We believe it is important to view Cash flow from operations less Expenditures for property, plant and equipment as a supplement to our Consolidated and Combined Statements of Cash Flows. Cash flow from operations less Expenditures for property, plant and equipment (non-GAAP) decreased by $195 million in 2020 versus 2019, primarily due to a decrease in net income, net of deferred taxes of $226 million and unfavorable impact from working capital of $194 million, partially offset by a decrease in Obligations to Honeywell of $149 million and an increase of $54 million in other items (mainly accrued liabilities). Additionally, Expenditures for property, plant and equipment expenses decreased by $22 million. 52 Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations, which we refer to as our “MD&A,” should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements and related notes thereto and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis or set forth elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including information with respect to our plans and strategy for our business, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. As a result of many important factors, including those set forth in the "Risk Factors" section of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, our actual results could differ materially from the results described in, or implied, by these forward-looking statements. The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is intended to help you understand the results of operations and financial condition of Garrett Motion Inc. for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018. Unless the context otherwise requires, references to “Garrett,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and “the Company” refer to (i) Honeywell’s Transportation Systems Business (the “Transportation Systems Business” or the “Business”) prior to our spin-off from Honeywell International Inc. (the “Spin-Off”) and (ii) Garrett Motion Inc. and its subsidiaries following the Spin-Off, as applicable. References to the “Debtors” refer to the Company and certain of its subsidiaries that each filed a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The Debtors’ chapter 11 cases (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) are being jointly administered under the caption “In re: Garrett Motion Inc., 20-12212.” Overview and Business Trends Garrett designs, manufactures and sells highly engineered turbocharger and electric-boosting technologies for light and commercial vehicle original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and the global vehicle independent aftermarket as well as automotive software solutions. These OEMs in turn ship to consumers globally. We are a global technology leader with significant expertise in delivering products across gasoline, diesel, natural gas and electric (hybrid and fuel cell) powertrains. These products are key enablers for fuel economy and emission standards compliance. Market penetration of vehicles with a turbocharger is expected to increase from approximately 53% in 2020 to approximately 56% by 2025, according to IHS Markit (“IHS”), which we believe will allow the turbocharger market to grow at a faster rate than overall automobile production. We expect that the powertrain mix evolution trends will remain mostly unchanged, which should support the turbocharger industry in the short to medium term. In particular, the reduction of battery electric vehicle (“BEV”) incentives in China from June 2019 and the change in new energy vehicles (“NEV”) credit policy in November 2019, led to a drop in BEV penetration in China between July 2019 and June 2020. Renewed sales incentives, especially in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, as well as non-financial incentives such as more generous license-plate quotas for major metropolitan areas, bolstered Chinese BEV penetration in the second half of 2020. In Europe, the COVID-19 stimulus packages are mostly directed to electric vehicles, but we do not expect a material adverse impact on the turbocharger market in the short term, as selling price, charging time, charging infrastructure availability and profitability issues for OEMs remain challenged to adoption. However, in the long term, a revision of CO2 reduction targets by 2030 proposed by the E.U. could drive an increase of BEV penetration in Europe beyond currently forecasted levels. The turbocharger market volume growth is expected to be particularly strong in China and other high-growth regions in the same period. In the short to medium term, we believe that turbo penetration will grow as turbos remain one of the most cost- efficient levers to improve the fuel efficiency of conventional Gasoline and Diesel vehicles as well as hybrid and fuel- cell vehicles. Growth in the turbo market is expected in all regions, with special mention for high-growth regions in Asia where rising income levels continue to drive long-term automotive and vehicle content demand. While these positive factors do not isolate the turbo industry from fluctuations in global vehicle production volumes, such factors may mitigate the negative impact of macroeconomic cycles, or the negative impact of a shift from light vehicle Diesel to light vehicle Gasoline engines. 53 In addition, specific to Garrett’s reorganization and Chapter 11 Cases (as defined below), financial situation and high debt leverage, we have seen an increase in potential risk developing with some OEMs questioning whether to award (or award less) new business to Garrett in the next few years, which has impacted our long term revenue expectations. In the shorter term, financial stability concerns could also drive some OEMs to consider dual sourcing some of the high volume engine platforms, already awarded to Garrett, in order to balance perceived supply risk and possibly shift volumes to the second source supplier. For additional information regarding trends facing our industry, our reorganization and Chapter 11 Cases as well as the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, see Part I, Item 1, “Business” under the headings “Our Industry”, “Reorganization and Chapter 11 Proceedings” and “Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic”, respectively. Basis of Presentation Prior to the Spin-Off on October 1, 2018, our historical financial statements were prepared on a stand–alone basis and derived from the consolidated financial statements and accounting records of Honeywell. Accordingly, for periods prior to October 1, 2018, our financial statements are presented on a combined basis and for the periods subsequent to October 1, 2018 are presented on a consolidated basis (collectively, the historical financial statements for all periods presented are referred to as “Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements”). The Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Liabilities under the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement The accounting for the majority of our asbestos-related liability payments and accounts payable reflect the terms of the indemnification and reimbursement agreement with Honeywell (as amended, the “Honeywell Indemnity Agreement”), under which Garrett ASASCO is required to make payments to Honeywell in amounts equal to 90% of Honeywell’s asbestos-related liability payments and accounts payable, primarily related to the Bendix business in the United States, as well as certain environmental-related liability payments and accounts payable and non-United States asbestos-related liability payments and accounts payable, in each case related to legacy elements of the Business, including the legal costs of defending and resolving such liabilities, less 90% of Honeywell’s net insurance receipts and, as may be applicable, certain other recoveries associated with such liabilities. The Honeywell Indemnity Agreement provides that the agreement will terminate upon the earlier of (x) December 31, 2048 or (y) December 31st of the third consecutive year during which certain amounts owed to Honeywell during each such year were less than $25 million as converted into Euros in accordance with the terms of the agreement. During the first quarter of 2020, Garrett ASASCO paid Honeywell the Euro-equivalent of $35 million in connection with the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement. Honeywell and Garrett agreed to defer the payment from Garrett ASASCO under the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement due May 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020 (the “Q2 Payment”), however we do not expect Garrett ASASCO to make payments to Honeywell under the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases. The Plan (as defined below), if confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, will include a global settlement with Honeywell providing for, among other things, the full and final satisfaction, settlement, release, and discharge of all liabilities under or related to the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement, that certain Indemnification Guarantee Agreement, dated as of September 27, 2018 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time), by and among Honeywell ASASCO 2 Inc. as payee, Garrett ASASCO as payor, and certain subsidiary guarantors as defined therein (the “Guarantee Agreement,” and together with the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement, the “Indemnity Agreements”) and the Tax Matters Agreement. On December 2, 2019, the Company and Garrett ASASCO, filed a Summons with Notice in the Commercial Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York (the “NY Supreme Court”) commencing an action (the “Action”) against Honeywell, certain of Honeywell’s subsidiaries and certain of Honeywell’s employees for declaratory judgment, breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duties, aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duties, corporate waste, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and unjust enrichment. On January 15, 2020, the Company and Garrett ASASCO, filed a Complaint in the NY Supreme Court in connection with the Action. The lawsuit arises from the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement. The Company is seeking declaratory relief; compensatory damages in an amount to be determined at trial; rescission of the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement; attorneys’ fees and costs and such other and further relief as the Court may deem just and proper. There can be no assurance as to the time and resources that will be required to pursue these claims or the ultimate outcome of the lawsuit. Among other claims, Garrett asserts that Honeywell is not entitled to indemnification because it improperly seeks indemnification for amounts attributable to punitive damages and intentional misconduct, and because it has failed to establish other prerequisites for indemnification under New York law. Specifically, the claim asserts that 54 Honeywell has failed to establish its right to indemnity for each and every asbestos settlement of the thousands for which it seeks indemnification. The Action seeks to establish that the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement is not enforceable, in whole or in part. On March 5, 2020, Honeywell filed a “Notice of Motion to Dismiss Garrett’s Complaint”. On September 20, 2020, Garrett and certain of its subsidiaries each filed a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York. On September 23, 2020, Garrett removed the Action to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and on September 24, 2020, the Action was referred to the Bankruptcy Court, where the case is currently pending. The defendants’ motion to dismiss the Action is pending. On December 18, 2020, Honeywell filed proofs of claim in the Chapter 11 Cases, asserting that the Company owes at least $1.9 billion in respect of such claims. The Bankruptcy Court was scheduled to estimate the amount of Honeywell’s claims in a estimation proceeding that was scheduled to commence on February 1, 2021. As noted below, the estimation proceeding has been stayed by order of the Bankruptcy Court. On January 11, 2021, the Company announced that it had agreed to settle Honeywell’s claims as part of the Plan. The Plan is subject to various conditions, including approval by the Bankruptcy Court. Under the settlement embodied in the Plan, Honeywell would receive a $375 million payment and Series B Preferred Stock payable in installments of $35 million in 2022, and $100 million annually 2023-2030. The Company would have the option to prepay the Series B Preferred Stock in full at any time at a call price equivalent to $584 million as of the Emergence (representing the present value of the installments at a 7.25% discount rate). The Company will also have the option to make a partial payment of the Series B Preferred Stock, reducing the present value to $400 million, at any time within 18 months of Emergence. On January 15, 2021, the Bankruptcy Court ordered that the Action and the estimation proceeding both be stayed pending the Bankruptcy Court’s consideration of the Plan. The confirmation hearing for the Plan is currently scheduled to take place in April 2021, however, the hearing may be rescheduled for a later date. Results of Operations for the Years Ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 Net Sales 2020 Net sales % change compared with prior period $ The change in net sales compared to prior year period is attributable to the following: Volume Price Foreign Currency Translation 2020 compared with 2019 2019 (Dollars in millions) $ 3,248 (6.6)% $ (3.8)% 3,034 2018 3,375 9.0% 2020 2019 (7.3)% (0.6)% 1.3% (6.6)% 1.3% (1.1)% (4.0)% (3.8)% Our net sales for 2020 were $3,034 million, a decrease of $214 million or 6.6% (despite a positive impact of 1.3% due to foreign currency translation), from $3,248 million in 2019. The decrease in sales was primarily driven by light vehicles OEM products decline of $78 million, commercial vehicles OEM products decline of $75 million, aftermarket products decline of $47 million and other products decline of $14 million. Our light vehicles OEM product decline was primarily driven by lower diesel volumes in Europe and Asia and lower gasoline volumes in Europe, partially offset by increased gasoline volumes in China as a result of increased turbocharger penetration in gasoline engines and new product launches. The decrease in net sales for commercial vehicles OEM products was mainly driven by lower volumes in Europe and North America. The decrease in 55 aftermarket product sales was primarily driven by volume decreases in Europe and North America. The decrease in other net sales was primarily driven by a decrease in prototype volumes. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, our manufacturing facility in Wuhan, China, was shut down for six weeks in February and March 2020 and we saw diminished production in our Shanghai, China facility for the same time period, which were the primary drivers of the decrease in sales in the Asia region during the three months ended March 31, 2020. Since our facilities in China re-opened in the middle of March, the production of those facilities in China has recovered significantly with an increase in net sales of 32% during the remainder of 2020 compared to the same period in 2019. Our manufacturing facilities in Mexicali, Mexico and Pune, India were shut down for five weeks in April and May 2020 and we saw diminished production in our European manufacturing facilities for that same time period, which were the primary drivers of the decrease in sales in the Europe and North America regions during 2020. 2019 compared with 2018 Our net sales for 2019 were $3,248 million, a decrease of $127 million or 3.8% (including a negative impact of 4.0% due to foreign currency translation), from $3,375 million in 2018. The decrease in sales was primarily driven by light vehicles OEM products decline of $57 million, commercial vehicles OEM products decline of $39 million, aftermarket products decline of $20 million and other products decline of $10 million. Our light vehicles OEM product decline was primarily driven by lower diesel volumes in Europe and Asia, partially offset by higher gasoline volumes as a result of increased turbocharger penetration in gasoline engines and new product launches. The decrease in net sales for commercial vehicles OEM products is mainly driven by lower volumes in Europe and North America. The decrease in aftermarket product sales was primarily driven by a volume decrease in Europe. Cost of Goods Sold 2020 Cost of goods sold % change compared with prior period Gross Profit percentage $ 2020 compared with 2019 2,478 2019 (Dollars in millions) 2,537 $ (2.3)% 18.3% $ (2.4)% 21.9% 2018 2,599 10.1% 23.0% Cost of goods sold for 2020 was $2,478 million, a decrease of $59 million or 2.3% from $2,537 million in 2019. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in direct material costs and labor costs, driven by decreased volumes. Gross profit percentage decreased by 3.6 percentage points primarily due to unfavorable impacts from mix and price (2.4 percentage points), unfavorable impacts from inflation (0.5 percentage points), unfavorable impact from repositioning costs (0.3 percentage points), and other factors (2.2 percentage points), including higher costs from premium freight and higher one time fixed costs, partially offset by favorable impact of productivity including lower volume leverage (1.5 percentage points) and the favorable impacts from foreign and exchange rates (0.3 percentage points). 2019 compared with 2018 Cost of goods sold for 2019 was $2,537 million, a decrease of $62 million or 2.4% from $2,599 million in 2018. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in direct material costs and labor costs of $113 million primarily due to changes in foreign exchange rates and increases in productivity of $98 million, partially offset by unfavorable impacts from volume and mix of $141 million and other impacts of $8 million. 56 Gross profit percentage decreased by 1.1 percentage points primarily due to unfavorable impacts from mix (2.8 percentage points), price (0.9 percentage points) and the unfavorable impacts from inflation (0.7 percentage points), partially offset by the favorable impact of productivity (3.1 percentage points) and the favorable impact of foreign exchange rates (0.2 percentage points). Selling, General and Administrative Expenses Selling, general and administrative expense % of sales 2020 compared with 2019 $ 2020 2019 (Dollars in millions) $ 249 $ 277 7.7% 9.1% 2018 249 7.4% Selling, general and administrative expenses increased in 2020 compared to 2019 by $28 million, mainly due to an increase of $52 million of professional service fees, primarily related to the strategic planning activities before the decision to file for relief under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in September 2020, $4 million of bad debt related to customer bankruptcy and $3 million pension costs increase, partially offset by $31 million of cost saving actions implemented to ease the impact of COVID-19 on our financial performance, including merit freezes, state funded lay-offs, unpaid leaves and reductions in travel expenses and professional services, as well as one-time Spin-off costs incurred in the prior year period. 2019 compared with 2018 Selling, general and administrative expenses were flat for 2019 compared to 2018 leading to an increase in expenses as a percentage of sales. Other Expense, Net Other expense, net % of sales 2020 compared with 2019 $ 2020 2019 (Dollars in millions) $ 40 $ 46 1.2% 1.5% 2018 120 3.6% Other expense, net increased in 2020 compared to 2019 by $6 million. The increase was attributable to a $12 million increase in legal fees incurred in connection with the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement, partially offset by a $8 million decrease in litigation-related expenses in connection with the pending litigation against Honeywell. 2019 compared with 2018 Other expense, net decreased in 2019 by $80 million compared to 2018. For 2019, Other expense, net of $40 million primarily reflects $28 million of legal fees incurred in connection with the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement, $11 million of legal fees in connection with the pending litigation against Honeywell, and $1 million in factoring and notes receivables discount fees. For 2018, Other expense, net of $120 million was primarily driven by asbestos- related charges, net of probable insurance recoveries of $131 million. Interest Expense Interest Expense 2020 2019 (Dollars in millions) 2018 $ 79 $ 68 $ 19 57 2020 compared with 2019 Interest expense increased in 2020 compared to 2019 by $11 million, mainly due to $16 million of higher outstanding Revolving Credit Facility drawings, additional fees associated with the amendment of our Credit Agreement, higher interest margins, post-petition Banks’ cancellations of cross- currency interest rate swaps and supplementary DIP financing, partially offset by $5 million of lower interest expense on our Term Loans due to voluntary prepayments in 2019. 2019 compared with 2018 Interest expense in 2019, was $68 million, an increase of $49 million from $19 million in 2018. The increase was primarily driven by interest expense related to our long-term debt. Prior to the Spin-Off, interest expense was primarily related to related party notes from cash pool arrangements with our Former Parent which were settled in cash prior to the Spin-Off. Non-operating (income) expense Non-operating (income) expense 2020 compared with 2019 2020 2019 (Dollars in millions) 2018 $ (38) $ 8 $ (8) Non-operating (income) expense in 2020 increased to income of $38 million from an expense of $8 million in 2019, primarily due to a significant unhedged exposure driven by the termination of all derivatives and closing of the credit lines, as a consequence of Chapter 11 filing. 2019 compared with 2018 Non-operating expense (income) in 2019 decreased to an expense of $8 million from an income of ($8) million in the prior year period, primarily driven by $6 million of marked to market pension costs and other non-service components of pension costs, $7 million of foreign exchange costs, net of hedging and a $4 million decrease in interest income from bank accounts and marketable securities. Reorganization items, net Reorganization items, net 2020 compared with 2019 2020 2019 (Dollars in millions) 2018 $ 73 $ — $ — Reorganization items, net for 2020 were $73 million, representing professional service fees related to Chapter 11 of $55 million, DIP Credit Agreement financing fees of $13 million and the write-off of the unamortized deferred high yield debt issuance cost of $6 million. There were no Reorganization items, net for the years ended December 31, 2019, and December 31, 2018, since these are new items related to the Chapter 11 Cases. Tax Expense (Benefit) Tax expense (benefit) Effective tax rate $ 2020 2019 (Dollars in millions) 33 39 $ $ 9.5% 32.8% 2018 (810) (204.5)% 58 2020 compared with 2019 The effective tax rate increased by 23.3 percentage points in 2020 compared to 2019. The increase was primarily attributable to the absence of tax benefits related to the remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities for tax law changes enacted during 2019, higher tax expense because of nondeductible costs incurred in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases, the resolution of tax audits and an increase in losses for jurisdictions where we don’t expect to generate future tax benefits from such losses. The increase in the effective tax rate was also impacted by overall lower earnings compared to 2019 because of the adverse impacts of COVID-19, partially offset by tax benefits from lower withholding taxes on non-US earnings. 2019 compared with 2018 The effective tax rate increased by 214.0 percentage points in 2019 compared to 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to the absence of approximately $910 million of non-recurring tax benefits in 2018 because of a reduction in withholding taxes incurred as part of an internal restructuring of Garrett’s business in advance of the Spin-Off. The increase was partially offset by approximately $60 million of tax benefits related to the remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities for tax law changes enacted during 2019, primarily in Switzerland. Net Income (loss) Net Income (loss) 2020 compared with 2019 2020 2019 (Dollars in millions) 2018 $ 80 $ 313 $ 1,206 As a result of the factors described above, net income was $80 million in 2020 as compared to net income of $313 million in 2019. 2019 compared with 2018 As a result of the factors described above, net income was $313 million in 2019 as compared to net income of $1,206 million in 2018. Net income for 2018 includes an $879 million tax benefit from reduced withholding taxes on undistributed earnings and no interest expense related to our long-term debt raised at the time of the Spin-Off. Liquidity and Capital Resources As described above, the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases constituted an event of default that accelerated the Company’s obligations, as applicable, under the Prepetition Credit Agreement (as defined below) and the Company’s 5.125% senior notes due 2026 (the “Senior Notes”). The Prepetition Credit Agreement and Senior Notes provide that as a result of the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, the principal, interest and all other amounts due thereunder shall be immediately due and payable. Any efforts to enforce the payment obligations under the Prepetition Credit Agreement and Senior Notes are automatically stayed as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases, and the creditors’ rights of enforcement in respect of the Prepetition Credit Agreement and Senior Notes are subject to the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. We expect that our cash requirements in 2021 will primarily be to fund operating activities, working capital, Chapter 11 case related costs and capital expenditures. We have historically funded our cash requirements, which included requirements to meet our obligations under our debt instruments and the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement described below, as well as the tax matters agreement with Honeywell (the “Tax Matters Agreement”), through the combination of cash flows from operating activities, available cash balances and available borrowings through our debt agreements. During the Chapter 11 Cases, our principal sources of liquidity are expected to be limited to cash flow from operations, cash on hand and borrowings under the DIP Credit Agreement (as defined below). Based on our current expectations, we believe these principal sources of liquidity during the Chapter 11 Cases will be sufficient to fund our operations during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases. Under the terms of the Transaction contemplated by the PSA and the Plan, the CO Group obtained a commitment from certain financial institutions to provide us with new credit facilities upon Emergence, and, if the Transaction, PSA and Plan are approved by the Bankruptcy Court, we expect to enter into definitive documentation for such credit facilities in connection with Emergence. 59 Going Concern Our ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon the Company’s ability to successfully implement a plan of reorganization in the Chapter 11 Cases, among other factors. As a result of the Chapter 11 Cases, the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities are subject to uncertainty. While operating as debtors-in-possession under the Bankruptcy Code, we may sell or otherwise dispose of or liquidate assets or settle liabilities, subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court or as otherwise permitted in the ordinary course of business, for amounts other than those reflected in our Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. Further, any plan of reorganization in the Chapter 11 Cases could materially change the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities reported in the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. As a result of our financial condition, uncertainty related to the impacts of COVID-19, and the risks and uncertainties surrounding the Chapter 11 Cases, substantial doubt exists that we will be able to continue as a going concern. Senior Credit Facilities On September 27, 2018, we entered into a Credit Agreement by and among us, certain of our subsidiaries, the lenders and issuing banks party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Prepetition Credit Agreement”). The Prepetition Credit Agreement was amended on June 12, 2020 (the “2020 Amendment”). The Prepetition Credit Agreement provides for senior secured financing of approximately the Euro equivalent of $1,254 million, consisting of (i) a seven-year senior secured first-lien term B loan facility, which consists of a tranche denominated in Euro of €375 million and a tranche denominated in U.S. Dollars of $425 million (the “Term B Facility”), (ii) a five-year senior secured first-lien term A loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of €330 million (the “Term A Facility” and, together with the Term B Facility, the “Term Loan Facilities”) and (iii) a five-year senior secured first-lien revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of €430 million with revolving loans to the Swiss Borrower (as defined in the Prepetition Credit Agreement), to be made available in a number of currencies including Australian Dollars, Euros, Pounds Sterling, Swiss Francs, U.S. Dollars and Yen (the “Revolving Facility” and, together with the Term Loan Facilities, the “Senior Secured Credit Facilities”). Following the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, the contractual non-default rate of interest applicable under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities is either (a) in the case of dollar denominated loans, base rate determined by reference to the highest of (1) the rate of interest last quoted by The Wall Street Journal as the “prime rate” in the United States, (2) the greater of the federal funds effective rate and the overnight bank funding rate, plus 0.5% and (3) the one month adjusted LIBOR rate, plus 1% per annum (“ABR”), (b) in the case of loans denominated in certain permitted foreign currencies other than dollars or euros, an adjusted LIBOR rate (“LIBOR”) (which shall not be less than zero), or (c) in the case of loans denominated in euros, an adjusted EURIBOR rate (“EURIBOR”) (which shall not be less than zero), in each case, plus an applicable margin. Pursuant to the 2020 Amendment, (i) the margin applicable to loans under the Term B Facility increased by 75 basis points through the maturity date and (ii) the margin applicable to loans under the Revolving Facility and Term A Facility increased by 25 basis points until the Company delivers consolidated financial statements as of and for its first fiscal quarter ending on or after the last day of the Relief Period (as defined in the 2020 Amendment). Pursuant to the 2020 Amendment, the margin applicable to Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan A Facility increased by a further 25 basis points on September 4, 2020 following a downgrade in our corporate credit rating by S&P Global ratings. 60 The applicable margin for the U.S. Dollar tranche of the Term B Facility is currently 2.50% per annum (for ABR loans) while that for the euro tranche of the Term B Facility is currently 3.75% per annum (for EURIBOR loans). The applicable margin for each of the Term A Facility and the Revolving Facility varies based on our leverage ratio which is increased by 50 basis points (including above mentioned Ratings event step up) until the Company delivers consolidated financial statements as of and for its first fiscal quarter ending on or after the last day of the Relief Period. Accordingly, the interest rates for the Senior Secured Credit Facilities will fluctuate during the term of the Prepetition Credit Agreement based on changes in the ABR, LIBOR, EURIBOR or future changes in our corporate rating or leverage ratio. The applicable margins for credit arrangements are summarized as follows: Credit Arrangements: Revolving Credit Facility LIBOR / EURIBOR Revolving Credit Facility ABR Term Loan A Term Loan B EUR EURIBOR Term Loan B USD LIBOR Term Loan B USD ABR Applicable margin per annum Until end of Relief period Thereafter 3.00% 2.00% 3.00% 3.75% 3.50% 2.50% 2.75% 1.75% 2.75% 3.75% 3.50% 2.50% The commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases described above constituted an event of default that accelerated the Company’s obligations and terminated undrawn commitments, as applicable, under the Prepetition Credit Agreement. The Prepetition Credit Agreement provides that as a result of the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, the principal, interest and all other amounts due thereunder shall be immediately due and payable. Any efforts to enforce the payment obligations under the Prepetition Credit Agreement are automatically stayed as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases, and the creditors’ rights of enforcement in respect of the Prepetition Credit Agreement are subject to the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. During the Chapter 11 Cases and pursuant to an order of the Bankruptcy Court, we make monthly payments of adequate protection at the contractual non-default rate of interest on loans and certain other obligations under our Senior Secured Credit Facilities. Senior Notes On September 27, 2018, we completed the offering of €350 million (approximately $410 million based on exchange rates as of September 27, 2018) in aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes. The Senior Notes bear interest at a fixed annual interest rate of 5.125% and mature on October 15, 2026. The Senior Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated September 27, 2018, which, among other things and subject to certain limitations and exceptions, limits our ability and the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to: (i) incur, assume or guarantee additional indebtedness or issue certain disqualified equity interests and preferred shares, (ii) pay dividends or distributions on, or redeem or repurchase, capital stock and make other restricted payments, (iii) make investments, (iv) consummate certain asset sales or transfers, (v) engage in certain transactions with affiliates, (vi) grant or assume certain liens on assets to secure debt unless the notes are secured equally and ratably (vii) restrict dividends and other payments by certain of their subsidiaries and (vii) consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our or our restricted subsidiaries’ assets. The commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases described above constituted an event of default that accelerated the Company’s obligations, as applicable, under the Senior Notes. The Senior Notes provide that as a result of the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, the principal, interest and all other amounts due thereunder shall be immediately due and payable. Any efforts to enforce the payment obligations under the Senior Notes are automatically stayed as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases, and the creditors’ rights of enforcement in respect of the Senior Notes are subject to the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. For additional information regarding our Prepetition Credit Agreement, see Note 16, Long-term Debt and Credit Agreements of the notes to the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. 61 DIP Credit Agreement On October 6, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order granting interim approval of the Debtors’ entry into a Senior Secured Super-Priority Debtor-in-Possession Credit Agreement (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “DIP Credit Agreement”), with the lenders party thereto (the “DIP Lenders”) and Citibank N.A. as administrative agent (the “DIP Agent”). On October 9, 2020 (the “Closing Date”), the Company, the DIP Agent and the DIP Lenders entered into the DIP Credit Agreement. The DIP Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured, super- priority term loan (the “DIP Term Loan Facility”) with a maximum principal amount of $200 million, $100 million of which was funded on the Closing Date and $100 million of which was subsequently funded on October 26, 2020, following entry of the Bankruptcy Court’s final order approving the DIP Term Loan Facility on October 23, 2020. The proceeds of the DIP Term Loan Facility are to be used by the Debtors to (a) pay certain costs, premiums, fees and expenses related to the Chapter 11 Cases, (b) make payments pursuant to any interim or final order entered by the Bankruptcy Court pursuant to any “first day” motions permitting the payment by the Debtors of any prepetition amounts then due and owing; (c) make certain adequate protection payments in accordance with the DIP Credit Agreement and (d) fund working capital needs of the Debtors and their subsidiaries to the extent permitted by the DIP Credit Agreement. On October 12, 2020, the Company, the DIP Agent and the DIP Lenders entered into the First Amendment to the DIP Credit Agreement (the “First Amendment”). The First Amendment eliminates the obligation for the Company to pay certain fees to the DIP Lenders in connection with certain prepayment events under the DIP Credit Agreement. For additional information regarding the terms of the DIP Credit Agreement, see Note 2, Reorganization and Chapter 11 Proceedings of the Notes to the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements and Note 16, Long-term Debt and Credit Agreements of the notes to the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. Delisting from NYSE On September 20, 2020, we were notified by the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) that, as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases, and in accordance with Section 802.01D of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, that NYSE had commenced proceedings to delist our common stock from the NYSE. The NYSE indefinitely suspended trading of our common stock on September 21, 2020. We determined not to appeal the NYSE’s determination. On October 8, 2020, the NYSE filed a Form 25-NSE with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which removed our common stock from listing and registration on the NYSE effective as of the opening of business on October 19, 2020. The delisting of our common stock from NYSE has and could continue to limit the liquidity of our common stock, increase the volatility in the price of our common stock, and hinder our ability to raise capital. Honeywell Indemnity Agreement On September 12, 2018, Garrett ASASCO entered into the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement, under which Garrett ASASCO is required to make certain payments to Honeywell in amounts equal to 90% of Honeywell’s asbestos-related liability payments and accounts payable, primarily related to the Bendix business in the United States, as well as certain environmental-related liability payments and accounts payable and non-United States asbestos- related liability payments and accounts payable, in each case related to legacy elements of the Business, including the legal costs of defending and resolving such liabilities, less 90% of Honeywell’s net insurance receipts and, as may be applicable, certain other recoveries associated with such liabilities. Pursuant to the terms of the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement, Garrett ASASCO is responsible for paying to Honeywell such amounts, up to a cap equal to the Distribution Date Currency Exchange Rate (1.16977 USD = 1 EUR) equivalent of $175 million (exclusive of any late payment fees) in respect of such liabilities arising in any given calendar year. In addition, the payments that Garrett ASASCO is required to make to Honeywell pursuant to the terms of the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement will not be deductible for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Honeywell Indemnity Agreement provides that the agreement will terminate upon the earlier of (x) December 31, 2048 or (y) December 31st of the third consecutive year during which certain amounts owed to Honeywell during each such year were less than $25 million as converted into Euros in accordance with the terms of the agreement. During the first quarter of 2020, Garrett ASASCO paid Honeywell the Euro-equivalent of $35 million in connection with the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement. In January 2020 we received from Honeywell the 2019 Prior Year Aggregate Loss Statement (as defined in the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement) which confirmed that the payments made to Honeywell as required by the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement in 2019 included an overpayment of $33 million. This payment would have been deducted from the second quarter 2020 payment and would have reduced the cash payments payable to Honeywell in 2020. Honeywell and Garrett agreed to defer the second quarter 2020 payment due May 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020 but the second quarter 2020 payment was not paid on this date as a result of the automatic stay applicable to the Debtors under the Bankruptcy Code as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases. We do not expect Garrett ASASCO to make payments to Honeywell under the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases. 62 Under the terms of the PSA and the Transaction, the Plan, if confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, will include a global settlement with Honeywell providing for (a) the full and final satisfaction, settlement, release, and discharge of all liabilities under or related to the Indemnity Agreements and the Tax Matters Agreement, and (b) the dismissal with prejudice of the Honeywell Litigation in exchange for (x) a $375 million cash payment at Emergence and (y) the new Series B Preferred Stock issued by the Company payable in installments of $35 million in 2022, and $100 million annually 2023-2030 (the “Series B Preferred Stock”). The Company will have the option to prepay the Series B Preferred Stock in full at any time at a call price equivalent to $584 million as of Emergence (representing the present value of the installments at a 7.25% discount rate). The Company will also have the option to make a partial payment of the Series B Preferred Stock, reducing the present value to $400 million, at any time within 18 months of Emergence. In every case, the duration of future liabilities to Honeywell will be reduced from 30 years prior to the Chapter 11 filing to a maximum of nine years. The terms of the PSA, the Transaction and the Plan remain subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court. There can be no assurances that we will obtain the approval of the Bankruptcy Court and complete the Transaction. Tax Matters Agreement On September 12, 2018, we entered into a Tax Matters Agreement which governs the respective rights, responsibilities and obligations of Honeywell and us after the Spin-Off with respect to all tax matters (including tax liabilities, tax attributes, tax returns and tax contests). The Tax Matters Agreement generally provides that we are responsible and will indemnify Honeywell for all taxes, including income taxes, sales taxes, VAT and payroll taxes, relating to Garrett for all periods, including periods prior to the completion date of the Spin-Off. Among other items, as a result of the mandatory transition tax imposed by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, Garrett ASASCO is required to make payments to a subsidiary of Honeywell in the amount representing the net tax liability of Honeywell under the mandatory transition tax attributable to us, as determined by Honeywell. Additionally, the Tax Matters Agreement provides that Garrett ASASCO is to make payments to a subsidiary of Honeywell for a portion of Honeywell’s net tax liability under Section 965(h)(6)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code for mandatory transition taxes that Honeywell determined is attributable to us (the “MTT Claim”). Following the Spin-Off, Honeywell asserted that Garrett ASASCO was obligated to pay $240 million to Honeywell for the MTT Claim under the Tax Matters Agreement. Accordingly, and in connection with the Tax Matters Agreement, we made payments to Honeywell, under protest, for the Euro-equivalent of $18 million and $19 million during 2019 and the fourth quarter of 2018, respectively, for the MTT Claim. On October 30, 2020, however, Honeywell filed an SEC Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2020, reporting that its claim against us under the Tax Matters Agreement, including the MTT Claim, is now $273 million. Under the terms of the Tax Matters Agreement, Garrett ASASCO is required to pay this amount in Euros, without interest, in five annual installments, each equal to 8% of the aggregate amount, followed by three additional annual installments equal to 15%, 20% and 25% of the aggregate amount, respectively. Garrett ASASCO paid the first annual installment in October 2018 and subsequent annual installments are due in April of each year. The annual installment due on April 1, 2020 was deferred to December 31, 2020 in agreement with Honeywell but was not paid on this date as a result of the automatic stay applicable to the Debtors under the Bankruptcy Code as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases. We do not expect Garrett ASASCO to make payments to Honeywell under the Tax Matters Agreement during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases. In addition, the Tax Matters Agreement addresses the allocation of liability for taxes incurred as a result of restructuring activities undertaken to effectuate the Spin-Off. The Tax Matters Agreement also provides that we are required to indemnify Honeywell for certain taxes (and reasonable expenses) resulting from the failure of the Spin-Off and related internal transactions to qualify for their intended tax treatment under U.S. federal, state and local income tax law, as well as foreign tax law. Further, the Tax Matters Agreement also imposes certain restrictions on us and our subsidiaries (including restrictions on share issuances, redemptions or repurchases, business combinations, sales of assets and similar transactions) that are designed to address compliance with Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and are intended to preserve the tax-free nature of the Spin-Off. As described above, under the terms of the PSA and the Transaction, the Plan, if confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, will include a global settlement with Honeywell providing for the full and final satisfaction, settlement, release, and discharge of all liabilities under or related to the Tax Matters Agreement. In every case the duration of future liabilities to Honeywell will be reduced from 30 years prior to the Chapter 11 filing to a maximum of nine years. Our entry into and performance under the PSA and the terms of the PSA, the Transaction and the Plan remain subject to 63 approval by the Bankruptcy Court. There can be no assurances that we will obtain the approval of the Bankruptcy Court and complete the Transaction. Cash Flow Summary for the Years Ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 Our cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, as reflected in the audited Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, are summarized as follows: Cash provided by (used for): Operating activities Investing activities Financing activities Effect of exchange rate changes on cash Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents 2020 compared with 2019 2020 Year Ended December 31, 2019 (Dollars in millions) 2018 $ $ 25 $ (80) 530 31 506 $ 242 $ (86) (163) (2) (9) $ 373 192 (658) (11) (104) Cash provided by operating activities decreased by $217 million for 2020 in comparison to 2019, primarily due to a decrease in net income, net of deferred taxes of $226 million, unfavorable impact from working capital of $194 million, partially offset by a decrease in Obligations to Honeywell of $149 million and an increase of $54 million in other items (mainly accrued liabilities). Cash used for investing activities decreased by $6 million in 2020 compared to 2019, primarily due to a favorable impact from Expenditures for property, plant and equipment of $22 million, due to higher customer contribution and lower spend, partially offset by an unfavorable impact from a prior year settlement received on the re-couponing of our cross currency swap contract of $19 million. Cash provided by financing activities increased by $693 million in 2020, as compared to 2019. The change was driven by a draw down, net of payments, on our Revolving Facility of $349 million, payments of long-term debt during 2020 totaling $2 million, as compared to $163 million of such payments during 2019 and proceeds from debtor-in-possession credit agreement, net of financing fees of $187 million. 2019 compared with 2018 Cash provided by operating activities decreased by $131 million for 2019 in comparison to 2018, primarily due to a decrease in Obligations to Honeywell of $67 million, higher cash interest payments of $46 million, a decrease in net income, net of deferred taxes of $3 million and a decrease of $39 million in other items (accrued liabilities and other assets), partially offset by a favorable impact from working capital of $24 million. Cash provided by investing activities decreased by $278 million in 2019 compared to 2018, primarily due to unfavorable net cash impacts from marketable securities investments activities year over year of $291 million and unfavorable impact from Expenditures for property, plant and equipment of $7 million, partially offset by a favorable impact from the cash settlement received on the re-couponing of our cross currency swap contract of $19 million. Cash used for financing activities decreased by $495 million in 2019, as compared to 2018. The change was driven by payments for related party notes payable of $493 million, net changes to cash pooling and short-term notes of $300 million and the net decrease in invested deficit of $1,493 million during 2018 that did not recur during 2019. This was partially offset by the $1,631 million of proceeds from issuance of long-term debt during 2018 that did not recur during 2019 and payments of long-term debt during 2019 of $163 million, as compared to $6 million during 2018. 64 Contractual Obligations and Probable Liability Payments The summary of our significant contractual obligations and probable liability payments at December 31, 2020 were as set forth in the table below. The table does not reflect any potential changes to our contractual obligations and other commitments that may result from the Chapter 11 cases and activities contemplated by the Transaction and the Plan.

Does not include expected utilization of our Senior Secured Credit Facilities or DIP Term Loan Facility. Interest payments are estimated based on the interest rates applicable as of December 31, 2020. This does not include the expected utilization of our revolving credit facility. (5) Purchase obligations are entered into with various vendors in the normal course of business and are consistent with our expected requirements. Capital Expenditures We believe our capital spending in recent years has been sufficient to maintain efficient production capacity, to implement important product and process redesigns and to expand capacity to meet increased demand. Productivity projects have freed up capacity in our manufacturing facilities and are expected to continue to do so. We expect to continue investing to expand and modernize our existing facilities and invest in our facilities to create capacity for new product development. In light of the near-term impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have reviewed current capital expenditure programs and re-phased some programs related to future capacity expansion and long-term development programs. This has materially reduced new capital expenditures in 2020 without having an adverse effect on our ability to deliver long-term projects on time. In 2021, we expect capital expenditures to materially increase as a result of the re- phasing noted above and the Company’s expected Emergence. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements We do not engage in any off-balance sheet financial arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources. 65 Critical Accounting Policies The preparation of our Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles is based on the selection and application of accounting policies that require us to make significant estimates and assumptions about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. We consider the accounting policies discussed below to be critical to the understanding of our financial statements. Actual results could differ from our estimates and assumptions, and any such differences could be material to our Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. In connection with the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases on the Petition Date, the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic No. 852, Reorganizations. See Note 2, Reorganization and Chapter 11 Proceedings, of the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements for further details. Contingent Liabilities—We are subject to lawsuits, investigations and claims that arise out of the conduct of our global business operations or those of previously owned entities, including matters relating to commercial transactions, government contracts, product liability (including asbestos), prior acquisitions and divestitures, employee benefit plans, intellectual property, legal and environmental, health and safety matters. We continually assess the likelihood of any adverse judgments or outcomes to our contingencies, as well as potential amounts or ranges of probable losses, and recognize a liability, if any, for these contingencies based on a careful analysis of each matter with the assistance of outside legal counsel and, if applicable, other experts. Such analysis includes making judgments concerning matters such as the costs associated with environmental matters, the outcome of negotiations, the number and cost of pending and future asbestos claims, and the impact of evidentiary requirements. Because most contingencies are resolved over long periods of time, liabilities may change in the future due to new developments (including new discovery of facts, changes in legislation and outcomes of similar cases through the judicial system), changes in assumptions or changes in our settlement strategy. See Note 23, Commitments and Contingencies of Notes to Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements for a discussion of management’s judgment applied in the recognition and measurement of our environmental and asbestos liabilities which represent our most significant contingencies. Asbestos-Related Contingencies and Insurance Recoveries—Honeywell is subject to certain asbestos-related and environmental-related liabilities, primarily related to its legacy Bendix business. In conjunction with the Spin-Off, certain operations that were part of the Bendix business, along with the ownership of the Bendix trademark, as well as certain operations that were part of other legacy elements of the Business, were transferred to us. The accounting for the majority of our asbestos-related liability payments and accounts payable reflect the terms of the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement with Honeywell entered into on September 12, 2018, under which Garrett ASASCO is required to make payments to Honeywell in amounts equal to 90% of Honeywell’s asbestos-related liability payments and accounts payable, primarily related to the Bendix business in the United States, as well as certain environmental-related liability payments and accounts payable and non-United States asbestos-related liability payments and accounts payable, in each case related to legacy elements of the Business, including the legal costs of defending and resolving such liabilities, less 90% of Honeywell’s net insurance receipts and, as may be applicable, certain other recoveries associated with such liabilities. The Honeywell Indemnity Agreement provides that the agreement will terminate upon the earlier of (x) December 31, 2048 or (y) December 31st of the third consecutive year during which certain amounts owed to Honeywell during each such year were less than $25 million as converted into Euros in accordance with the terms of the agreement. Under the terms of the PSA and the Transaction, the Plan, if confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, will include a global settlement with Honeywell providing for (a) the full and final satisfaction, settlement, release, and discharge of all liabilities under or related to the Indemnity Agreements and the Tax Matters Agreement and (b) the dismissal with prejudice of the Honeywell Litigation in exchange for (x) a $375 million cash payment at Emergence and (y) the “Series B Preferred Stock. The Company will have the option to prepay the Series B Preferred Stock in full at any time at a call price equivalent to $584 million as of Emergence (representing the present value of the installments at a 7.25% discount rate). The Company will also have the option to make a partial payment of the Series B Preferred Stock, reducing the present value to $400 million, at any time within 18 months of Emergence. In every case the duration of future liabilities to Honeywell will be reduced from 30 years prior to the Chapter 11 filing to a maximum of nine years. Our entry into and performance under the PSA and the terms of the PSA, the Transaction and the Plan remain subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court. There can be no assurances that we will obtain the approval of the Bankruptcy Court and complete the Transaction. 66 Warranties and Guarantees—Expected warranty costs for products sold are recognized based on an estimate of the amount that eventually will be required to settle such obligations. These accruals are based on factors such as past experience, length of the warranty and various other considerations. Costs of product recalls, which may include the cost of the product being replaced as well as the customer’s cost of the recall, including labor to remove and replace the recalled part, are accrued as part of our warranty accrual at the time an obligation becomes probable and can be reasonably estimated. These estimates are adjusted from time to time based on facts and circumstances that impact the status of existing claims. See Note 23, Commitments and Contingencies of Notes to Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements included herein for additional information. Pension Benefits—We sponsor defined benefit pension plans covering certain employees, primarily in Switzerland, the U.S. and Ireland. For such plans, we are required to disaggregate the service cost component of net benefit costs and report those costs in the same line item or items in the Consolidated and Combined Statements of Operations as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The other nonservice components of net benefit costs are required to be presented separately from the service cost component. We record the service cost component of Pension ongoing (income) expense in Cost of goods sold or Selling, general and administrative expenses. The remaining components of net benefit costs within Pension ongoing (income) expense, primarily interest costs and assumed return on plan assets, are recorded in Non- operating expense (income). We recognize net actuarial gains or losses in excess of 10% of the greater of the fair value of plan assets or the plans’ projected benefit obligation (the corridor) annually in the fourth quarter each year (“MTM Adjustment”). The MTM Adjustment is recorded in Non-operating expense (income). The key assumptions used in developing our 2020 net periodic pension (income) expense included the following: Discount Rate: Projected benefit obligation Service Cost Interest cost Assets: Expected rate of return Actual rate of return U.S. Plans Non-U.S. Plans 2020 3.30% 4.47% 4.06% 5.49% 12.49% 0.79% 1.20% 1.74% 3.79% 5.19% The MTM Adjustment represents the recognition of net actuarial gains or losses in excess of 10% of the greater of the fair value of plan assets or the plans’ projected benefit obligation (the corridor). Net actuarial gains and losses occur when the actual experience differs from any of the various assumptions used to value our pension plans or when assumptions change. The primary factors contributing to actuarial gains and losses are changes in the discount rate used to value pension obligations as of the measurement date each year and the difference between expected and actual returns on plan assets. The mark-to-market accounting method results in the potential for volatile and difficult to forecast MTM Adjustments. MTM charges were $0 for our U.S. Plans and $13 million for our non-U.S. Plans for the year ended December 31, 2020. We determine the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets utilizing historical plan asset returns over varying long-term periods combined with our expectations of future market conditions and asset mix considerations (see Note 24, Defined Benefit Pension Plans of Notes to Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements for details on the actual various asset classes and targeted asset allocation percentages for our pension plans). We plan to use an expected rate of return on plan assets of 4.88% for our U.S. Plans and 3.60% for our non-U.S. Plans for 2020 as this is a long-term rate based on historical plan asset returns over varying long-term periods combined with our expectations of future market conditions and the asset mix of the plan’s investments. The discount rate reflects the market rate on December 31 (measurement date) for high-quality fixed-income investments with maturities corresponding to our benefit obligations and is subject to change each year. The discount rate can be volatile from year to year as it is determined based upon prevailing interest rates as of the measurement date. We used a 2.65% discount rate to determine benefit obligations for our U.S. Plans and 0.46% for our non-U.S. Plans as of December 31, 2020. 67 Pension ongoing expense (income) for all of our pension plans is expected to be pension income of $2 million in 2021 compared with pension ongoing expense of $1 million in 2020. Also, if required, an MTM Adjustment will be recorded in the fourth quarter of 2021 in accordance with our pension accounting method as previously described. It is difficult to reliably forecast or predict whether there will be an MTM Adjustment in 2021, and if one is required, what the magnitude of such adjustment will be. MTM Adjustments are primarily driven by events and circumstances beyond the control of the Company such as changes in interest rates and the performance of the financial markets. For periods prior to the Spin-off, certain Garrett employees participated in defined benefit pension plans (the “Shared Plans”) sponsored by Honeywell which includes participants of other Honeywell subsidiaries and operations. We account for our participation in the Shared Plans as a multiemployer benefit plan. Accordingly, we do not record an asset or liability to recognize the funded status of the Shared Plans. The related pension expense is based on annual service cost of active Garrett participants and reported within Cost of goods sold in the Consolidated and Combined Statements of Operations. Income Taxes—We account for income taxes pursuant to the asset and liability method which requires us to recognize current tax liabilities or receivables for the amount of taxes we estimate are payable or refundable for the current year and deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and their respective tax bases of assets and liabilities and the expected benefits of net operating loss and credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period enacted. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that a portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income and the reversal of deferred tax liabilities during the period in which related temporary differences become deductible. Our pre-Spin-Off activity in the U.S. will be reported in Honeywell’s U.S. consolidated income tax return and certain foreign activity will be reported in Honeywell tax paying entities in those jurisdictions. For periods prior to the Spin-Off, the income tax provision included in the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements related to domestic and certain foreign operations was calculated on a separate return basis, as if Garrett was a separate taxpayer and the resulting current tax receivable or liability, including any liabilities related to uncertain tax positions, was settled with Honeywell through equity at the time of the Spin-Off. In other foreign taxing jurisdictions, the operations of Garrett were always conducted through discrete legal entities, each of which filed separate tax returns, and all resulting income tax assets and liabilities, including liabilities related to uncertain tax positions, are reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets of Garrett. Other Matters Litigation and Environmental Matters See Note 23, Commitments and Contingencies of Notes to Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements for a discussion of environmental, asbestos and other litigation matters. Recent Accounting Pronouncements See Note 3, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of Notes to the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements for a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements. 68 Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks Foreign Currency Risk We are exposed to market risks from changes in currency exchange rates. These exposures may impact future earnings and/or operating cash flows. Our exposure to market risk for changes in foreign currency exchange rates arises from international financing activities between subsidiaries, foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities and transactions arising from international trade. We historically have hedged currency exposures with natural offsets to the fullest extent possible and, once these opportunities have been exhausted, through foreign currency exchange forward contracts (Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts). We hedged monetary assets and liabilities denominated in non-functional currencies. Prior to conversion into U.S. dollars, these assets and liabilities are remeasured at spot exchange rates in effect on the balance sheet date. The effects of changes in spot rates are recognized in earnings and included in Non-operating expense (income). As a result of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Company has been limited in its ability to enter into hedging transactions. The Company has obtained Bankruptcy Court authorization for continuing hedging activities in the ordinary course of business, however, counterparties have either been unwilling to enter into hedging transactions with the Company during the Chapter 11 Cases or have required the Company to fully cash collateralize its obligations under the relevant hedging instrument, which has effectively reduced the Company’s ability to hedge foreign currency exposures beyond those relating to trade payables and receivables. As of December 31, 2020, the net fair value of all financial instruments with exposure to currency risk was a $0 million asset. The potential loss or gain in fair value for such financial instruments from a hypothetical 10% adverse or favorable change in quoted currency exchange rates would be $(2) million and $2 million, respectively, at December 31, 2020 exchange rates. The model assumes a parallel shift in currency exchange rates; however, currency exchange rates rarely move in the same direction. The assumption that currency exchange rates change in a parallel fashion may overstate the impact of changing currency exchange rates on assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Interest Rate Risk Our exposure to risk based on changes in interest rates relates primarily to our Prepetition Credit Agreement and DIP Credit Agreement. The Prepetition Credit Agreement and DIP Credit Agreement bear interest at floating rates. For variable rate debt, interest rate changes generally do not affect the fair market value of such debt assuming all other factors remain constant but do impact future earnings and cash flows. Accordingly, we may be exposed to interest rate risk on borrowings under the Credit Agreement and DIP Credit Agreement. For our outstanding borrowings under the Prepetition Credit Agreement and DIP Credit Agreement as of December 31, 2020, a 50 basis point increase (decrease) in interest rates would have increased (decreased) our interest expense by $3 million and $3 million, respectively, compared to the amount of interest that would have been incurred in such period based on the rates of interest in effect at December 31, 2020. For additional information regarding our Prepetition Credit Agreement and DIP Credit Agreement, see Note 16, Long-term Debt and Credit Agreements of the notes to the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. Commodity Price Risk While we are exposed to commodity price risk, we pass through abnormal changes in component and raw material costs to our customers based on the contractual terms of our arrangements. In limited situations, we may not be fully compensated for such changes in costs. 69 Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of Garrett Motion Inc. Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting We have audited the internal control over financial of Garrett Motion Inc. and subsidiaries in reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code since September 20, 2020 — see Note 2 (the "Company") as of December 31, 2020, based on criteria established in Internal Control— Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO. We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated and combined financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020, of the Company and our report dated February 16, 2021, expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated and combined financial statements and included explanatory paragraphs regarding changes in accounting principle and certain conditions that give rise to substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern; and emphasis of matter paragraphs concerning the bankruptcy proceedings and expense allocations. Basis for Opinion The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls 70 may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. /s/ Deloitte SA Geneva, Switzerland February 16, 2021 71 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM Opinion on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Garrett Motion Inc. and subsidiaries in reorganization under chapter 11 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code since September 20, 2020 — see Note 1 (the "Company") as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the related consolidated and combined statement of operations, comprehensive income, equity (deficit), and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2020, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2020, in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 16, 2021 expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Change in Accounting Principle As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted FASB ASC Topic 842, Leases, using the modified retrospective approach. Going Concern The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, as a result of the Company’s financial condition, uncertainty related to the impacts of COVID-19, and the risks and uncertainties surrounding the Chapter 11 Cases filed by the Company, there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s evaluation of the events and conditions and their plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Emphasis of a Matter Bankruptcy Proceedings As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, on September 20, 2020, the Company has voluntarily filed for reorganization under chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The accompanying financial statements do not purport to reflect or provide for the consequences of the bankruptcy proceedings. In particular, such financial statements do not purport to show (1) as to assets, their realizable value on a liquidation basis or their availability to satisfy liabilities; (2) as to pre-petition liabilities, the settlement amounts for allowed claims, or the status and priority thereof; (3) as to stockholder accounts, the effect of any changes that may be made in the capitalization of the Company; or (4) as to operations, the effect of any changes that may be made in its business. Expense allocation As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, on October 1, 2018, the Company became an independent publicly-traded company through a pro rata distribution by Honeywell International Inc. (“Honeywell”) of 100% of the then outstanding shares of the Company to Honeywell’s stockholders. For the period from January 1, 2018 to October 1, 2018, the financial statements include expense allocations for certain corporate functions historically provided by Honeywell. These allocations may not be reflective of the actual expense that would have been incurred had the Company operated as a separate entity apart from Honeywell. A summary of transactions with related parties is included in Note 27 to the financial statements. 72 Basis for Opinion These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures to respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Critical Audit Matter The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates. Obligations Payable to Honeywell– Refer to Note 23 to the financial statements Critical Audit Matter Description As more fully described in Note 23 of the financial statements, the Company recorded a liability for obligations payable to Honeywell as of December 31, 2020, as a result of certain agreements entered into in connection with the spin-off from Honeywell on October 1, 2018. These agreements prescribe payments due to Honeywell for the indemnification of certain asbestos claims and pre-spin-off tax matters. Subsequent to separation from Honeywell, the Company has challenged the enforceability of such agreements and filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court to hear arguments related to these obligations. The Bankruptcy Court was scheduled to hold an estimation proceeding to evaluate all of Honeywell’s claims against the Company. This proceeding has been stayed pending the Bankruptcy Court’s consideration of the plan of reorganization. While under chapter 11 protection, the Company is required to record obligations payable to Honeywell at the Company’s expected amount of the allowed claim as determined by the Bankruptcy Court. The carrying value of the obligations payable to Honeywell as of December 31, 2020 is $1,482 million. The actual amount to be paid is subject to the Bankruptcy Court’s approval. We have identified the Company’s measurement of the obligations payable to Honeywell as a critical audit matter. This required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort when performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of management’s judgments around the expected amount of the allowed claim due to Honeywell. How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included the following: • We tested the effectiveness of certain internal controls over the Company’s litigation assessment process, including internal controls over the assessment of the Company’s proceedings with Honeywell and the impact of chapter 11. 73 • • • • We assessed management’s evaluation of the accounting impact of the proceedings with Honeywell and inspected documentation from internal counsel related to it. We performed a search for new or contrary evidence that would affect the estimate, including through review of minutes of meetings of the board of directors and read the court summaries of the ongoing proceedings with Honeywell. We requested and received internal and external legal counsel confirmation letters and assessed management’s evaluation of the proceedings by meeting with internal and external counsel. We also evaluated the appropriateness of the related disclosures included in Note 23 to the financial statements. /s/ Deloitte SA Geneva, Switzerland February 16, 2021 We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2018. 74 GARRETT MOTION INC.

(DEBTOR-IN-POSSESSION) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 1. Background and Basis of Presentation Background Garrett Motion Inc. (the “Company” or “Garrett”) designs, manufactures and sells highly engineered turbocharger and electric-boosting technologies for light and commercial vehicle original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and the global vehicle independent aftermarket, as well as automotive software solutions. These OEMs in turn ship to consumers globally. We are a global technology leader with significant expertise in delivering products across gasoline, diesel, natural gas and electric (hybrid and fuel cell) powertrains. These products are key enablers for fuel economy and emission standards compliance. On October 1, 2018, the Company became an independent publicly-traded company through a pro rata distribution by Honeywell International Inc. (“Former Parent” or “Honeywell”) of 100% of the then-outstanding shares of Garrett to Honeywell’s stockholders (the “Spin-Off”). Each Honeywell stockholder of record received one share of Garrett common stock for every 10 shares of Honeywell common stock held on the record date. Approximately 74 million shares of Garrett common stock were distributed on October 1, 2018 to Honeywell stockholders. In connection with the Spin-Off, Garrett´s common stock began trading “regular-way” under the ticker symbol “GTX” on the New York Stock Exchange on October 1, 2018. COVID-19 In 2020, the COVID-19 virus was declared a pandemic and spread across the world, including throughout Asia, the United States and Europe. Our business operations have been materially disrupted and our revenues have decreased significantly as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and related response measures, and we expect our financial performance in future fiscal quarters, to be materially negatively affected by the pandemic and its impact on the global automotive industry. On June 12, 2020, the Company entered into an amendment (the “2020 Amendment”) to its Credit Agreement, dated as of September 27, 2018 (as amended, the “Prepetition Credit Agreement”) by and among the Company, Garrett LX I S.à r.l., Garrett LX II S.à r.l., Garrett LX III S.à r.l., Garrett Borrowing LLC, and Garrett Motion Sàrl (f/k/a Honeywell Technologies Sàrl), the lenders and issuing banks party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, consisting of: • • • a seven-year term B loan facility, consisting of a tranche denominated in Euro of €375 million and a tranche denominated in U.S. Dollars of $425 million (the “Term B Facility”); a five-year term A loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of €330 million (the “Term A Facility” and, together with the Term B Facility, the “Term Loan Facilities”); and a five-year revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of €430 million (the “Revolving Facility” and, together with the Term Loan Facilities, the “Senior Credit Facilities”). The primary purpose for entering into the 2020 Amendment was to obtain covenant relief with respect to the total leverage ratio and interest coverage ratios under the Prepetition Credit Agreement as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Company’s leveraged capital structure. The 2020 Amendment qualified as a debt modification that did not result in an extinguishment or have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements. The commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases (as defined below) constituted an event of default that accelerated the Company’s obligations, as applicable, under the Prepetition Credit Agreement. The Prepetition Credit Agreement provides that as a result of the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, the principal, interest and all other amounts due thereunder shall be immediately due and payable. Any efforts to enforce the payment obligations under the Prepetition Credit Agreement are automatically stayed as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases, and the creditors’ rights of enforcement in respect of the Prepetition Credit Agreement are subject to the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. 80 Voluntary Filing Under Chapter 11 On September 20, 2020 (the “Petition Date”), the Company and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Debtors”) each filed a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The Debtors’ chapter 11 cases (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) are being jointly administered under the caption “In re: Garrett Motion Inc., 20-12212.” On September 22 and 24, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court entered orders granting interim approval of certain forms of relief requested by the Debtors, enabling the Debtors to conduct their business activities in the ordinary course, subject to the terms and conditions of such orders, including authorizing the Debtors to pay employee wages and benefits, to pay certain taxes and certain governmental fees and charges, to continue to operate the Debtors’ cash management system in the ordinary course, to maintain certain customer programs, and to pay the prepetition claims of certain of the Debtors’ vendors. On October 20 and 21, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court entered orders granting such relief on a final basis. For goods and services provided following the Petition Date, the Debtors continue to pay vendors under normal terms. The Consolidated Financial Statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic No. 852, Reorganizations. See Note 2, Reorganization and Chapter 11 Proceedings, for further details. Delisting from NYSE On September 20, 2020, the Company was notified by the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) that, as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases, and in accordance with Section 802.01D of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, that the NYSE had commenced proceedings to delist the Company’s common stock from the NYSE. The NYSE indefinitely suspended trading of the Company’s common stock on September 21, 2020. The Company determined not to appeal the NYSE’s determination. On October 8, 2020, the NYSE filed a Form 25-NSE with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which removed the Company’s common stock from listing and registration on the NYSE effective as of the opening of business on October 19, 2020. Trading of the Company’s common stock now occurs on the OTC Pink Market under the symbol “GTXMQ.” Any over-the-counter market quotations of the Company’s common stock reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission and may not necessarily represent actual transactions. Going Concern The accompanying Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and contemplate the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Liabilities subject to compromise will be resolved in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon the Company’s ability to successfully implement a plan of reorganization in the Chapter 11 Cases, among other factors. As a result of the Chapter 11 Cases, the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities are subject to uncertainty. While operating as debtors-in-possession under the Bankruptcy Code, the Company may sell or otherwise dispose of or liquidate assets or settle liabilities, subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court or as otherwise permitted in the ordinary course of business, for amounts other than those reflected in the accompanying Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. Further, any plan of reorganization in the Chapter 11 Cases could materially change the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities reported in the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. The accompanying Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities or any other adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern or as a consequence of the Chapter 11 Cases. As a result of our financial condition, uncertainty related to the impacts of COVID-19, and the risks and uncertainties surrounding the Chapter 11 Cases, substantial doubt exists that we will be able to continue as a going concern. Basis of Presentation Prior to the Spin-Off on October 1, 2018, our historical financial statements were prepared on a stand-alone combined basis and were derived from the consolidated financial statements and accounting records of Honeywell. Accordingly, for periods prior to October 1, 2018, our financial statements are presented on a combined basis and for the periods subsequent to October 1, 2018 are presented on a consolidated basis (collectively, the historical financial statements for all periods presented are referred to as “Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements”). The Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). All amounts presented are in millions, except per share amounts. 81 Asbestos-related expenses, net of probable insurance recoveries, are presented within Other expense, net in the Consolidated and Combined Statement of Operations. Honeywell is subject to certain asbestos-related and environmental-related liabilities, primarily related to its legacy Bendix business. In conjunction with the Spin-Off, certain operations that were part of the Bendix business, along with the ownership of the Bendix trademark, as well as certain operations that were part of other legacy elements of the Business, were transferred to us. The accounting for the majority of our asbestos- related liability payments and accounts payable reflect the terms of the indemnification and reimbursement agreement with Honeywell entered into on September 12, 2018 (the “Honeywell Indemnity Agreement”), under which Garrett ASASCO is required to make payments to Honeywell in amounts equal to 90% of Honeywell’s asbestos-related liability payments and accounts payable, primarily related to the Bendix business in the United States, as well as certain environmental-related liability payments and accounts payable and non-United States asbestos-related liability payments and accounts payable, in each case related to legacy elements of the Business, including the legal costs of defending and resolving such liabilities, less 90% of Honeywell’s net insurance receipts and, as may be applicable, certain other recoveries associated with such liabilities. The Honeywell Indemnity Agreement provides that the agreement will terminate upon the earlier of (x) December 31, 2048 or (y) December 31st of the third consecutive year during which certain amounts owed to Honeywell during each such year were less than $25 million as converted into Euros in accordance with the terms of the agreement. We have accounted for the Honeywell liability consistent with the agreement up to the Petition Date and classified it as part of Liabilities Subject to Compromise. Under the terms of the PSA and the Transaction, the Plan, if confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, will include a global settlement with Honeywell providing for (a) the full and final satisfaction, settlement, release, and discharge of all liabilities under or related to the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement, that certain Indemnification Guarantee Agreement, dated as of September 27, 2018 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time), by and among Honeywell ASASCO 2 Inc. as payee, Garrett ASASCO as payor, and certain subsidiary guarantors as defined therein (the “Guarantee Agreement,” and together with the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement, the “Indemnity Agreements”) and the Tax Matters Agreement and (b) the dismissal with prejudice of the Honeywell Litigation in exchange for (x) a $375 million cash payment at emergence from the Chapter 11 Cases (“Emergence”) and (y) the new Series B Preferred Stock issued by the Company payable in installments of $35 million in 2022, and $100 million annually 2023-2030 (the “Series B Preferred Stock”). The Company will have the option to prepay the Series B Preferred Stock in full at any time at a call price equivalent to $584 million as of Emergence (representing the present value of the installments at a 7.25% discount rate). The Company will also have the option to make a partial payment of the Series B Preferred Stock, reducing the present value to $400 million, at any time within 18 months of Emergence. In every case the duration of future liabilities to Honeywell will be reduced from 30 years prior to the Chapter 11 filing to a maximum of nine years. The Debtors’ entry into and performance under the PSA and the terms of the PSA, the Transaction and the Plan remain subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court. There can be no assurances that the Debtors will obtain the approval of the Bankruptcy Court and complete the Transaction. For additional information, see Note 23, Commitments and Contingencies, of the Notes to the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. We evaluated segment reporting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 280, Segment Reporting. We concluded that Garrett operates in a single operating segment and a single reportable segment based on the operating results available and evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) to make decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment. The CODM makes operational performance assessments and resource allocation decisions on a consolidated basis, inclusive of all of the Business’s products. The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases these estimates on assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, including considerations for the impact from the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company's business due to various global macroeconomic, operational and supply chain risks as a result of COVID-19. Actual results could differ from the original estimates, requiring adjustments to these balances in future periods. Furthermore, while operating as “debtors-in-possession” under Chapter 11, the Debtors may sell or otherwise dispose of or liquidate assets or settle liabilities, subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court or as otherwise permitted in the ordinary course of business and subject to restrictions of the debtor in possession (“DIP”) financing, for amounts other than those reflected in the accompanying unaudited Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. Any such actions occurring during the Chapter 11 Cases, 82 including through a plan of reorganization confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court could materially impact the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities reported in the unaudited Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. Note 2. Reorganization and Chapter 11 Proceedings Key Events and Voluntary Petition for Reorganization Due to the Company´s highly leveraged capital structure resulting from the Spin-Off, the Company began a strategic review process assisted by external financial advisers before the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic accelerated the review process to include the careful monitoring of liquidity and the consideration of potential court-supervised restructuring processes. The strategic review process lasted months and considered a wide variety of options, including strategic mergers and stand-alone recapitalizations, both out-of-court and with the assistance of Chapter 11. The result of the Company’s strategic review process was the decision to commence a pre-filing marketing process for a cash sale of the business in chapter 11, with the proceeds of the sale and any litigation recoveries related to the spin-off to be distributed to stakeholders. After the bidding process, the Company selected a winning bid of $2.1 billion from AMP Intermediate B.V. (the “Stalking Horse Bidder”) and AMP U.S. Holdings, LLC, each affiliate of KPS Capital Partners, LP, (“KPS”). As described in greater detail below, the Stalking Horse Bidder and certain of the Debtors entered into a share and asset purchase agreement (the “Stalking Horse Purchase Agreement”) on the Petition Date. The Stalking Horse Purchase Agreement constituted a “stalking horse” bid that was subject to higher and better offers by third parties in accordance with the bidding procedures approved by the Bankruptcy Court in an order entered by the Bankruptcy Court after hearings on October 21, 2020 and October 23, 2020 (the “Bidding Procedures Order”). The Bidding Procedures Order permitted third parties to submit competing proposals for the purchase and/or reorganization of the Debtors and approved stalking horse protections for the Stalking Horse Bidder. Following entry into the Stalking Horse Purchase Agreement, the Chapter 11 Cases were commenced on the Petition Date. The Debtors filed certain motions and applications intended to limit the disruption of the Chapter 11 Cases on their operations. Since the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Debtors have continued to operate their businesses as “debtors-in-possession” under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Bankruptcy Court. The Bankruptcy Court granted the first day relief the Debtors requested that was designed primarily to mitigate the impact of Chapter 11 Cases on our operations, customers and employees. As a result, we are able to conduct normal business activities and pay all associated obligations for the period following the Petition Date and we are also authorized to pay prepetition employee wages and benefits and certain vendors and suppliers in the ordinary course for goods and services provided prior to the Petition Date. During the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases, all transactions outside of the ordinary course of business require the prior approval of Bankruptcy Court. In accordance with the Bidding Procedures Order, the Debtors held an auction (the “Auction”) at which they solicited and received higher and better offers from KPS and from a consortium made up of Owl Creek Asset Management, L.P., Warlander Asset Management, L.P., Jefferies LLC, Bardin Hill Opportunistic Credit Master Fund LP, Marathon Asset Management L.P., and Cetus Capital VI, L.P., or affiliates thereof (collectively, the “OWJ Group”). In addition to the bids received at the Auction from KPS and the OWJ Group, the Debtors also received a transaction proposal in parallel to the Auction from Centerbridge Partners, L.P. (“Centerbridge”), Oaktree Capital Management, L.P. (“Oaktree”), Honeywell International Inc. and certain other investors and parties (collectively, the “CO Group”). The Auction was completed on January 8, 2021, at which point the Debtors filed with the Bankruptcy Court (i) an auction notice noting that a bid received from KPS was the successful bid at the Auction but that the Debtors were still considering the proposal from the CO Group, (ii) a Plan to implement the successful bid of KPS at the Auction and (iii) a related disclosure statement. On January 11, 2021, the Debtors, having determined that the proposal from the CO Group was a higher and better proposal than the successful bid of KPS at the Auction, entered into a Plan Support Agreement with the CO Group (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “PSA”) and announced their intention to pursue a restructuring transaction with the CO Group (the “Transaction”). As a result of the entry into the PSA, (i) the Debtors filed a supplemental auction notice with the Bankruptcy Court on January 11, 2021 describing the Debtors’ determination to proceed with the Transaction, (ii) the Debtors filed a revised Plan and related revised disclosure statement with the Bankruptcy Court on January 22, 2021 to implement the Transaction and (iii) the Stalking Horse Purchase Agreement became terminable, following which, on January 15, 2021, the Stalking Horse Bidder terminated the Stalking Horse Purchase Agreement and the Debtors subsequently paid a termination payment of $63 million and an expense reimbursement payment of $ 15.7 million to the Stalking Horse Bidder pursuant to the terms of the Stalking Horse Purchase Agreement and the Bidding Procedures Order. 83 In accordance with the terms of the PSA, on January 22, 2021, the Debtors’ entered into an Equity Backstop Commitment Agreement (the “EBCA”) with certain members of the CO Group (the “Equity Backstop Parties”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Company will conduct the rights offering contemplated by the PSA (the “Rights Offering”) and each Equity Backstop Party committed to (i) exercise its rights, as a stockholder of the Company, to purchase in the Rights Offering shares of the convertible Series A preferred stock of the Company to be offered in the Rights Offering (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) and (ii) purchase, on a pro rata basis (in accordance with percentages set forth in the EBCA), shares of Series A Preferred Stock which were offered but not subscribed for in the Rights Offering. On February 15, 2021, the Debtors and the CO Group agreed with certain of the Consenting Lenders (as defined below) to amend and restate the PSA, among other things, so as to add certain of the Consenting Lenders as parties thereto supporting the Plan. On January 24, 2021, representatives of the Equity Committee submitted a restructuring term sheet for a proposed plan of reorganization sponsored by Atlantic Park. The Equity Committee subsequently filed with the Bankruptcy Court on February 5, 2021, a proposed plan of reorganization and related disclosure statement with respect to such transaction (as reflected in the proposed plan of reorganization filed with the Bankruptcy Court, the “Atlantic Park Proposal”). The transactions contemplated under the Atlantic Park Proposal have been proposed as an alternative to the transactions contemplated under the Plan. In connection with the Atlantic Park Proposal, the Equity Committee filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court seeking to modify the Debtors’ exclusive periods to file and solicit votes on a Chapter 11 plan. The Equity Committee’s motion is scheduled to be heard by the Bankruptcy Court on February 16, 2021. The Company has significant concerns with the feasibility of the Atlantic Park Proposal and has concluded that at this time the transactions contemplated under the Atlantic Park Proposal are not reasonably likely to lead to a higher and better alternative plan of reorganization as compared to the Plan. Plan Support Agreement and Equity Backstop Commitment Agreement On the Petition Date, certain of the Debtors also entered into the Stalking Horse Purchase Agreement with the Stalking Horse Bidder, pursuant to which the Stalking Horse Bidder agreed to purchase, subject to the terms and conditions contained therein, substantially all of the assets of the Debtors. The Stalking Horse Purchase Agreement constituted a “stalking horse” bid that was subject to higher and better offers by third parties in accordance with the bidding procedures approved by the Bidding Procedures Order. The Bidding Procedures Order permitted third parties to submit competing proposals for the purchase and/or reorganization of the Debtors and approved stalking horse protections for the Stalking Horse Bidder.In accordance with the Bidding Procedures Order, the Debtors held an auction (the “Auction”) at which they solicited and received higher and better offers from KPS and from a consortium made up of Owl Creek Asset Management, L.P., Warlander Asset Management, L.P., Jefferies LLC, Bardin Hill Opportunistic Credit Master Fund LP, Marathon Asset Management L.P., and Cetus Capital VI, L.P., or affiliates thereof (collectively, the “OWJ Group”). In addition to the bids received at the Auction from KPS and the OWJ Group, the Debtors also received a transaction proposal in parallel from Centerbridge Partners, L.P., Oaktree Capital Management, L.P., Honeywell International Inc. and certain other investors and parties (collectively, the “CO Group”). The Auction was completed on January 8, 2021, at which point the Debtors filed with the Bankruptcy Court (i) an auction notice noting that a bid received from KPS was the successful bid at the Auction but that the Debtors were still considering the proposal from the CO Group, (ii) a plan of reorganization (as may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Plan”) and (iii) a related disclosure statement (as may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Disclosure Statement”). On January 11, 2021, the Debtors, having determined that the proposal from the CO Group was a higher and better proposal than the successful bid of KPS at the Auction, entered into the PSA and announced their intention to pursue the Transaction. As a result of the entry into the PSA, (i) the Debtors filed a supplemental auction notice with the Bankruptcy Court on January 11, 2021 describing the Debtors’ determination to proceed with the Transaction, (ii) the Debtors filed a revised Plan and a related revised Disclosure Statement with the Bankruptcy Court on January 22, 2021 to implement the Transaction and (iii) the Stalking Horse Purchase Agreement became terminable, following which, on January 15, 2021, the Stalking Horse Bidder terminated the Stalking Horse Purchase Agreement and the Debtors subsequently paid a termination payment of $63 million and an expense reimbursement payment of $15.7 million to the Stalking Horse Bidder pursuant to the terms of the Stalking Horse Purchase Agreement and the Bidding Procedures Order. The subsequent payment was recorded in Reorganization items, net in the first quarter of 2021, due to the termination notice by KPS. 84 Under the PSA, the material terms of the Transaction include: • • • • • • • Committed direct equity investment in the form of Series A Preferred Stock of the reorganized Company by certain members of the CO Group in the amount of $1,050.8 million in the aggregate in cash; A rights offering of the reorganized Company’s Series A Preferred Stock for a maximum aggregate value of $200 million to existing holders of the Company’s common stock, backstopped by certain members of the CO Group on a fully committed basis; Holders of shares of the Company’s existing common stock may retain their shares or, at each stockholder’s election (unless such stockholder is a party to the PSA), receive cash at $6.25 per share in exchange for cancellation of their shares; Re-listing of the reorganized Company’s common stock on a national securities exchange; Payment in full of all customer, supplier, trade, vendor, employee, pension, regulatory, environmental and other liabilities of the Debtors and their worldwide subsidiaries; and A final global settlement for substantially all claims by Honeywell International Inc. and its affiliates (including spin-off-related claims, but excluding claims arising under ordinary course business dealings); Committed debt financing for the reorganized Debtors upon Emergence, estimated to be approximately $1,100 million at Emergence. The PSA contains customary representations, warranties and covenants. The PSA is subject to certain termination events, subject to certain exceptions, including (a) the breach by any party of any of the representations, warranties, covenants, obligations or commitments set forth therein, where such breach would materially and adversely interfere with the Transaction and remains uncured; (b) the issuance by any governmental authority of an order that would have an adverse effect on a material provision of the PSA or a material portion of the Transaction or the Plan or a material adverse effect on the Debtors’ business; (c) an examiner, trustee or receiver is appointed in the Chapter 11 Cases; (d) conversion of one or more of the Chapter 11 Cases to cases under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code or dismissal of any of the Chapter 11 Cases; (e) if any of the restructuring documents after completion (i) contain terms, conditions, representations, warranties or covenants that are materially inconsistent with the terms of the PSA, (ii) are materially and adversely amended or modified with respect to the terminating party or (iii) are withdrawn without the consent of the applicable party; (f) if any party proposes, supports, assists, solicits or files a pleading seeking approval of any alternative transaction without the prior written consent of certain parties; (g) if, on or after April 19, 2021, the Plan is not filed with the Bankruptcy Court, subject to certain extensions; (h) if the effective date of the Plan has not occurred by June 30, 2021, subject to certain extensions; (i) if the Bankruptcy Court grants relief that is inconsistent with the PSA in any material respect or that would materially frustrate the purposes of the PSA; or (j) by the Debtors, if their boards of directors reasonably determine in good faith after receiving the advice of outside counsel that the Debtors’ continued performance under the PSAs would be inconsistent with the exercise of such boards’ fiduciary duties under applicable law. In accordance with the terms of the PSA, on January 22, 2021, the Debtors’ entered into the EBCA with the Equity Backstop Parties, pursuant to which, among other things, the Company will conduct the Rights Offering and each Equity Backstop Party committed to (i) exercise its rights, as a stockholder of the Company, to purchase in the Rights Offering shares of the Series A Preferred Stock and (ii) purchase, on a pro rata basis (in accordance with percentages set forth in the EBCA), shares of Series A Preferred Stock which were offered but not subscribed for in the Rights Offering. The EBCA provides for the reimbursement by the Debtors of professional fees and expenses and filing fees incurred by the Equity Backstop Parties in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases in an aggregate amount that, together with and inclusive of amounts to be reimbursed pursuant to the PSA, do not exceed $25 million prior to Emergence. The EBCA further provides for indemnification by the Debtors of losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses incurred by the Equity Backstop Parties in connection with the Transaction. The EBCA contains customary representations, warranties and covenants. The EBCA is subject to certain termination events, including, without limitation, (a) by mutual agreement of the parties, (b) by the Company following an uncured breach of a representation, warranty or covenant in the EBCA by an Equity Backstop Party, or (c) by the Equity Backstop Parties constituting each of Centerbridge, Oaktree and a number of the other Equity Backstop Parties holding at least a majority of the rights to purchase Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to the PSA (excluding any such rights held by Centerbridge and Oaktree) following an uncured breach by the Debtors of a representation, warranty or covenant in the EBCA. The EBCA will automatically terminate if the Plan Support Agreement terminates with respect to the rights and obligations of the Debtors prior to the occurrence of the effective date of the Plan in accordance with its terms. On February 15, 2021, the Debtors and the CO Group agreed with certain of the Consenting Lenders to amend and restate the PSA so as to, among other things, add certain of the Consenting Lenders as parties thereto supporting the 85 Plan. The PSA provides for the reimbursement by the Debtors of professional fees and expenses of the CO Group and certain of the Consenting Lenders, subject to an interim cap on certain expenses of $25 million prior to Emergence and with the balance to be paid at Emergence. As of February 15, 2021, the CO Group estimated that the aggregate amount of professional fees and expenses expected to be payable by the Debtors under the PSA (inclusive of any amounts payable prior to Emergence) was approximately $82 million. The Debtors’ entry into and performance and obligations under the PSA and the ECBA are subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court and other customary closing conditions. On February 9, 2021, the Equity Committee filed an objection to the Debtors’ motion seeking authority to enter into and perform under the PSA and the ECBA. A hearing on the matter is scheduled to take place in the Bankruptcy Court on February 16, 2021. There can be no assurances that the Debtors will obtain the approval of the Bankruptcy Court and complete the Transaction. Restructuring Support Agreement On the Petition Date, the Debtors entered into a Restructuring Support Agreement (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “RSA”) with consenting lenders (the “Consenting Lenders”) holding, in the aggregate, approximately 61% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of loans under the Prepetition Credit Agreement. Pursuant to the RSA, the Consenting Lenders and the Debtors agreed to the principal terms of a financial restructuring, which will be implemented through a plan of reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code and which could include the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of certain Debtors and of the stock of certain Debtors and other subsidiaries, as further described below. On January 6, 2021, the Debtors and Consenting Lenders holding no less than a majority of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of loans under the Prepetition Credit Agreement then held by all Consenting Lenders entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Restructuring Support Agreement (the “Amendment”), which, among other things, extended certain milestones contained in the RSA. The RSA provides that the Consenting Lenders will support the Debtors’ restructuring efforts, including the approval of the Plan, as set forth in, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the RSA. In addition, the Consenting Lenders agreed to the Debtors’ entry into the DIP Term Loan Facility (as defined below) discussed below. The RSA provides certain milestones for the Chapter 11 Cases. Failure of the Debtors to satisfy these milestones without a waiver or consensual amendment would provide the Requisite Consenting Lenders a termination right under the RSA. These milestones, as modified from time to time, include (a) no later than February 22, 2021, (i) the hearing to approve the Disclosure Statement shall have occurred and (ii) the Bankruptcy Court shall have entered an order approving the Disclosure Statement on a final basis, which shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Requisite Consenting Lenders; (b) no later than April 7, 2021, a hearing shall have occurred for approval of the Plan, and within 2 Business Days thereafter, the Bankruptcy Court shall have entered the Confirmation Order on a final basis, which shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Requisite Consenting Lenders; and (c) no later than April 30, 2021, (i) the Transaction shall have closed and (ii) the Plan Effective Date shall have occurred. Plan of Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors had the exclusive right to file a plan of reorganization under Chapter 11 through and including 120 days after the Petition Date, and the Debtors currently have the exclusive right to solicit acceptances of such plan through and including 180 days after the Petition Date. This deadline may be extended with the approval of the Bankruptcy Court. As described above, in connection with the Atlantic Park Proposal, the Equity Committee filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court seeking to modify the Debtors’ exclusive periods to file and solicit votes on a Chapter 11 plan. The Equity Committee’s motion is scheduled to be heard by the Bankruptcy Court on February 16, 2021. Under the absolute priority scheme established by the Bankruptcy Code, unless our creditors agree otherwise, all of our pre-petition liabilities and post-petition liabilities must be satisfied in full before the holders of our existing common stock can receive any distribution or retain any property under a plan of reorganization. The ultimate recovery to creditors and/or shareholders, if any, will not be determined until confirmation and implementation of a plan or plans of reorganization. We can give no assurance that any recovery or distribution of any amount will be made to any of our creditors or shareholders. A confirmed plan of reorganization could result in any of the holders of our liabilities and/or securities, including our common stock, receiving no distribution on account of their interests and cancellation of their holdings. Moreover, a plan of reorganization can be confirmed, under the Bankruptcy Code, even if the holders of our common stock vote against the plan of reorganization and even if the plan of reorganization provides that the holders of our common stock receive no distribution on account of their equity interests. 86 As described above, the Debtors filed the Plan and Disclosure Statement on January 8, 2021, and filed a revised Plan and revised Disclosure Statement on January 22, 2021 to implement the Transaction. The Plan has not been confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court and may be supplemented or revised by the Debtors prior to the confirmation hearing to be held by the Bankruptcy Court. A hearing before the Bankruptcy Court to consider approval of the Disclosure Statement filed by the Debtors is scheduled for February 16, 2021. On February 9, 2021, the Equity Committee filed an objection to the approval of the Disclosure Statement, which will be considered at the February 16, 2021 hearing. Chapter 11 Accounting The Company has applied ASC 852 in preparing our Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. ASC 852 requires the financial statements for periods subsequent to the Petition Date to distinguish transactions and events that are directly associated with the Company's reorganization from the ongoing operations of the business. Accordingly, revenues, expenses, realized gains and losses, and provisions for losses directly resulting from the reorganization and restructuring shall be reported separately as Reorganization items, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. In addition, the balance sheet distinguishes pre-petition liabilities subject to compromise from those pre-petition liabilities that are not subject to compromise and post- petition liabilities. Pre-petition liabilities that are not fully secured or those that have at least a possibility of not being repaid at the allowed claim amount have been classified as liabilities subject to compromise on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2020. Under the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors may assume and assign or reject executory contracts and unexpired leases subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court and certain other conditions. Generally, the rejection of an executory contract or unexpired lease is treated as a prepetition breach of such executory contract or unexpired lease and, subject to certain exceptions, relieves the Debtors of performing their future obligations under such executory contract or unexpired lease but entitles the contract counterparty or lessor to a pre-petition general unsecured claim for damages caused by such deemed breach subject, in the case of the rejection of unexpired leases of real property, to certain caps on damages. Counterparties to such rejected contracts or leases may assert unsecured claims in the Bankruptcy Court against the applicable Debtor’s estate for such damages. Generally, the assumption or assumption and assignment of an executory contract or unexpired lease requires the Debtors to cure existing monetary defaults under such executory contract or unexpired lease and provide adequate assurance of future performance thereunder. Accordingly, any description of an executory contract or unexpired lease with a Debtor in this annual report, including where applicable a quantification of the Company’s obligations under any such executory contract or unexpired lease with a Debtor is qualified by any overriding rejection rights the Company has under the Bankruptcy Code. Reorganization Items, Net The Debtors have incurred and will continue to incur significant costs associated with the reorganization, including the write-off of original issue discount and deferred long-term debt fees on debt, a component of liabilities subject to compromise, costs of debtor-in-possession financing and legal and professional fees. The amount of these charges, which since the Petition Date are being expensed as incurred, are expected to significantly affect the Company’s results of operations. In accordance with applicable guidance, costs associated with the bankruptcy proceedings have been recorded as Reorganization items, net within the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020. Reorganization items, net are comprised of the following for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020: Advisor fees DIP Financing fees Write-off of pre-petition unamortized debt issuance costs Other Total reorganization items, net Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2020 $ $ 55 13 6 (1) 73 Debt during Chapter 11 Cases See note 16, Long-term Debt and Credit Agreements for further discussion of the DIP facilities and the pre-petition long term debt. 87 Financial Statement Classification of Liabilities Subject to Compromise As a result of the Chapter 11 Cases, the payment of pre-petition liabilities is generally subject to compromise pursuant to a plan of reorganization. Generally, actions to enforce or otherwise effect payment of pre-bankruptcy filing liabilities are stayed. Although payment of pre-petition claims generally is not permitted, the Bankruptcy Court granted the Debtors authority to pay certain pre-petition claims in designated categories and subject to certain terms and conditions. This relief generally was designed to preserve the value of the Debtors’ business and assets. Among other things, the Bankruptcy Court authorized, but did not require, the Debtors to pay certain pre-petition claims relating to employee wages and benefits, taxes, critical vendors and foreign vendors. Pre-petition liabilities that are subject to compromise are required to be reported at the amounts expected to be allowed by the Bankruptcy Court, even if they may be settled for different amounts. The amounts classified as liabilities subject to compromise may be subject to future adjustments depending on Bankruptcy Court actions, further developments with respect to disputed claims, determination of secured status of certain claims, the determination as to the value of any collateral securing claims, proof of claims or other events. The following table presents liabilities subject to compromise as reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2020: Obligations payable to Honeywell (Note 23) Long-term debt (Note 16) Accounts payable Pension, compensation, benefit and other employee related Uncertain tax positions and deferred taxes Advanced discounts from suppliers Lease liability (Note 17) Freight Accrual Product warranties and performance guarantees Other Total liabilities subject to compromise December 31, 2020 1,482 429 82 92 69 33 19 27 16 41 2,290 $ $ Determination of the value at which liabilities will ultimately be settled cannot be made until the Bankruptcy Court approves the plan of reorganization. We will continue to evaluate the amount and classification of our pre-petition liabilities. Any additional liabilities that are subject to compromise will be recognized accordingly, and the aggregate amount of liabilities subject to compromise may change. Potential Claims On November 3, 2020, the Debtors filed with the Bankruptcy Court schedules and statements for Garrett Motion Holdings Inc., Garrett ASASCO Inc. and Garrett Motion Holdings II Inc. (collectively, the “Initial Reporting Debtors”), setting forth, among other things, the assets and liabilities of each of the Initial Reporting Debtors, subject to the assumptions filed in connection therewith. On December 18, 2020, the Debtors filed with the Bankruptcy Court schedules and statements for each of the remaining Debtors, setting forth, among other things, the assets and liabilities of each of the remaining Debtors, subject to the assumptions filed in connection therewith. These schedules and statements are subject to further amendment or modification. As part of the Chapter 11 Cases, parties believing that they have claims or causes of action against the Debtors may file proofs of claim evidencing such claims. On November 4, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order requiring that certain holders of pre-petition claims that are not governmental units file proofs of claim with respect to claims against the Initial Reporting Debtors by the deadline for general claims against the Sellers, which was December 18, 2020 at 4:00pm Eastern Time. On December 15, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order requiring that certain holders of pre-petition claims that are not governmental units file proofs of claim with respect to claims against the remaining Debtors by the deadline for general claims against the remaining Debtors, which is March 1, 2021 at 4:00pm Eastern Time. On December 17, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order requiring that holders of pre- petition claims arising from the purchase or sale of our common stock file proofs of claim with respect to such claims by March 1, 2021 at 4:00pm Eastern Time. 88 The Debtors' have received 1,326 proofs of claim as of February 8, 2021, for an amount of approximately $146 billion. Such amount includes duplicate claims across multiple debtor legal entities. As claims are filed against the Debtors, the claims will be reconciled to amounts recorded in the Company's accounting records. Differences in amounts recorded and claims filed by creditors will be investigated and resolved, including through the filing of objections with the Bankruptcy Court, where appropriate. In addition, the Company may ask the Bankruptcy Court to disallow claims that the Company believes are duplicative, have been later amended or superseded, are without merit, are overstated or should be disallowed for other reasons. In light of the substantial number of claims already filed, and expected to be filed, the claims resolution process may take considerable time to complete and may continue after the Debtors emerge from bankruptcy. As of February 10, 2021 the Company’s assessment of the validity of claims received has not been completed. Automatic Stay Subject to certain specific exceptions under the Bankruptcy Code, the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases automatically stayed most judicial or administrative actions against the Debtors and efforts by creditors to collect on or otherwise exercise rights or remedies with respect to pre-petition claims. Absent an order from the Bankruptcy Court, substantially all of the Debtors’ pre-petition liabilities are subject to settlement in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code. Condensed Combined Debtor Only Financial Information The financial statements below represent the condensed combined financial statements of the Debtors as of and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020. Any entities which are non-debtor entities, are not included in these condensed combined financial statements.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Principles of Consolidation and Combination— For the periods subsequent to the Spin-Off, the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements include the accounts of Garrett Motion Inc. and all of its subsidiaries in which a controlling financial interest is maintained. We consolidate entities that we control due to ownership of a majority voting interest, and we consolidate variable interest entities (“VIEs”) when we have variable interests and are the primary beneficiary. Our consolidation policy requires equity investments that we exercise significant influence over but in which we do not have a controlling financial interest to be accounted for using the equity method. Investments through which we are not able to exercise significant influence over the investee and which we do not have readily determinable fair values are accounted for under the cost method. All intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. For the periods prior to the Spin-Off, the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements were prepared on a stand-alone basis and include our business units and wholly owned direct and indirect subsidiaries and entities in which we had a controlling financial interest. Cash and Cash Equivalents—Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and highly liquid investments having an original maturity of three months or less. Restricted Cash—Restricted cash primarily consists of bank deposits used to pledge as collateral in order to be able to issue bank notes as payment to certain suppliers in the Asia Pacific region (refer to Note 9. Factoring and Notes Receivable) as well as provide access to a traditional supplier payable program involving certain of our suppliers and a third-party financial institution. 91 Trade Receivables and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts—Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount as a result of transactions with customers. Garrett maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses as a result of a customer’s inability to make required payments. As of January 1, 2020, Garrett adopted ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The new guidance requires an entity to recognize as an allowance its estimate of lifetime expected credit losses rather than incurred losses. The guidance is also applicable to contract assets such as unbilled receivables. Consistent with the new guidance, Garrett estimates losses from doubtful accounts expected over the contractual life of the receivables based on days past due as measured from the contractual due date and collection history. Garrett also takes into consideration changes in economic conditions that may not be reflected in historical trends (for example, customers in bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization). Receivables are written-off against the allowance for doubtful accounts when they are determined uncollectible. Such determination includes analysis and consideration of the particular conditions of the account, including time intervals since last collection, customer performance against agreed upon payment plans, solvency of customer and any bankruptcy proceedings. Transfer of Financial Instruments—Sales and transfers of financial instruments are accounted for under ASC 860, Transfers and Servicing (“ASC 860”). The Company may discount and sell accounts receivables during the normal course of business. These receivables which are transferred to a third party without recourse to the Company and that meet the criteria of sales accounting as per ASC 860, are excluded from the amounts reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The cash proceeds received from such sales are included in operating cash flows. The expenses associated with the factoring of receivables are recorded within Other expense, net in the Consolidated and Combined Statements of Operations. The Company may also receive bank notes in settlement of accounts receivables, primarily in the Asia Pacific region. Such bank notes are classified as notes receivables under Accounts, notes and other receivables – net in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The collections of such bank notes are included in operating cash flows and any expenses related to discounting these are included within Other expense, net in the Consolidated and Combined Statements of Operations. The Company can hold the bank notes until maturity, exchange them with suppliers to settle liabilities, or sell them to third party financial institutions in exchange for cash. Inventories—Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on a first-in, first-out basis, including direct material costs and direct and indirect manufacturing costs, or net realizable value. Obsolete inventory is identified based on analysis of inventory for known obsolescence issues. The original equipment inventory on hand in excess of forecasted usage and lack of consumption in the previous 12 months is fully reserved, unless the value of such material is recoverable from either the vendor or the customer. Property, Plant and Equipment—Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. For financial reporting, the straight-line method of depreciation is used over the estimated useful lives of 10 to 50 years for buildings and improvements, 2 to 16 years for machinery and equipment, 3 to 10 years for tooling equipment and 5 to 7 years for software. Leases—For the periods beginning January 1, 2019, right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date of a lease (the “commencement date”) based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in Other assets, Accrued liabilities, and Other liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. No finance leases have been recognized. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. We use the implicit rate when readily determinable. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease where it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease payments are expensed in the period in which they occur. We have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are generally accounted for separately. For machinery and equipment, we account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. We account for short-term leases by recognizing lease payments in net income on a straight-line basis over the lease term and will not recognize any ROU assets and lease liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. For the periods prior to January 1, 2019, we accounted for leases in accordance with ASC 840, Leases (“ASC 840”). Upon commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, certain pre-petition leases have been reclassified into liabilities subject to compromise. 92 Goodwill—Goodwill is subject to impairment testing annually, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be fully recoverable. This testing compares carrying value to fair value of our single reporting unit. The Company recognizes an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds the reporting unit´s fair value. However, any impairment should not exceed the amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. Because we have a single reporting unit with a negative carrying value, no impairment was recognized. Warranties and Guarantees—Expected warranty costs for products sold are recognized based on an estimate of the amount that eventually will be required to settle such obligations. These accruals are based on factors such as past experience, length of the warranty and various other considerations. Costs of product recalls, which may include the cost of the product being replaced as well as the customer’s cost of the recall, including labor to remove and replace the recalled part, are accrued as part of our warranty accrual at the time an obligation becomes probable and can be reasonably estimated. These estimates are adjusted from time to time based on facts and circumstances that impact the status of existing claims. For additional information, see Note 23, Commitments and Contingencies of Notes to Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. Sales Recognition—On January 1, 2018, we adopted the FASB´s updated guidance on revenue from contracts with customers, ASC 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), using the modified retrospective method applied to contracts that were not completed as of January 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under ASC 606, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historic accounting. Product sales are recognized when we transfer control of the promised goods to our customer, which is based on shipping terms. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring the promised goods. In the sale of products in the OEM channel, the transaction price for these goods is equal to the agreed price of each unit and represents the standalone selling price for the unit. In the sale of products in the aftermarket channel, the terms of a contract or the historical business practice can give rise to variable consideration due to, but not limited to, discounts and bonuses. We estimate variable consideration at the most likely amount we will receive from customers and reduce revenues recognized accordingly. We include estimated amounts in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. Our estimates of variable consideration and determination of whether to include estimated amounts in the transaction price are based largely on an assessment of our anticipated performance and all information (historical, current and forecasted) that is reasonably available to us. Prior to January 1, 2018, sales were recognized when there was evidence of a sales agreement, the delivery of goods had occurred, the sales price was fixed or determinable and the collectability of revenue was reasonably assured. Sales were generally recorded upon shipment of product to customers and transfer of title under standard commercial terms. Sales incentives and allowances were recognized as a reduction to revenue at the time of the related sale. In addition, payments made to customers were generally recognized as a reduction to revenue at the time these payments are made or committed to the customers. Research and Development—Garrett conducts research and development (“R&D”) activities, which consist primarily of the development of new products and product applications. R&D costs are charged to expense as incurred. Such costs are included in Cost of goods sold of $111 million, $129 million and $128 million, for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 respectively. Additionally, the Company incurs engineering-related expenses which are also included in Cost of goods sold of $13 million, $5 million and $10 million for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018. Asbestos-Related Contingencies and Insurance Recoveries—Honeywell is subject to certain asbestos-related and environmental-related liabilities, primarily related to its legacy Bendix business. In conjunction with the Spin-Off, certain operations that were part of the Bendix business, along with the ownership of the Bendix trademark, as well as certain operations that were part of other legacy elements of the Business, were transferred to us. The accounting for the majority of our asbestos-related liability payments and accounts payable reflect the terms of the indemnification and reimbursement agreement with Honeywell entered into on September 12, 2018 (the “Honeywell Indemnity Agreement”), under which Garrett ASASCO is required to make payments to Honeywell in amounts equal to 90% of Honeywell’s asbestos-related liability payments and accounts payable, primarily related to the Bendix business in the United States, as well as certain environmental-related liability payments and accounts payable and non-United States 93 asbestos-related liability payments and accounts payable, in each case related to legacy elements of the Business, including the legal costs of defending and resolving such liabilities, less 90% of Honeywell’s net insurance receipts and, as may be applicable, certain other recoveries associated with such liabilities. The Honeywell Indemnity Agreement provides that the agreement will terminate upon the earlier of (x) December 31, 2048 or (y) December 31st of the third consecutive year during which certain amounts owed to Honeywell during each such year were less than $25 million as converted into Euros in accordance with the terms of the agreement. Under the terms of the PSA and the Transaction, the Plan, if confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, will include a global settlement with Honeywell providing for (a) the full and final satisfaction, settlement, release, and discharge of all liabilities under or related to the Indemnity Agreements and the Tax Matters Agreement and (b) the dismissal with prejudice of the Honeywell Litigation in exchange for (x) a $375 million cash payment at Emergence and (y) the Series B Preferred Stock. The Company will have the option to prepay the Series B Preferred Stock in full at any time at a call price equivalent to $584 million as of Emergence (representing the present value of the installments at a 7.25% discount rate). The Company will also have the option to make a partial payment of the Series B Preferred Stock, reducing the present value to $400 million, at any time within 18 months of Emergence. In every case the duration of future liabilities to Honeywell will be reduced from 30 years prior to the Chapter 11 filing to a maximum of nine years. The Debtors’ entry into and performance under the PSA and the terms of the PSA, the Transaction and the Plan remain subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court. On February 9, 2021, the Equity Committee filed an objection to the Debtors’ motion seeking authority to enter into and perform under the PSA and the ECBA. A hearing on the matter is scheduled to take place in the Bankruptcy Court on February 16, 2021. There can be no assurances that the Debtors will obtain the approval of the Bankruptcy Court and complete the Transaction. For additional information, see Note 23, Commitments and Contingencies of Notes to Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. Stock-Based Compensation Plans—The principal awards issued under our stock-based compensation plans, which are described in Note 21, Stock-Based Compensation, are restricted stock units. The cost for such awards is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods (generally the vesting period of the equity award) and is included in Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated and Combined Statements of Operations. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant to recognize expense for those awards that are expected to vest and are based on our historical forfeiture rates under our Former Parent´s plans. For periods prior to the Spin-Off, certain employees within the Business participated in stock-based compensation plans sponsored by the Former Parent. The Former Parent’s stock-based compensation plans primarily include incentive compensation plans. Awards granted under the plans consist of stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance stock units (“PSUs”) and are based on the Former Parent’s common shares and, as such, are reflected in Invested deficit within the Consolidated and Combined Statements of Equity (Deficit). Pension Benefits—Following the Spin-Off, we sponsor defined benefit pension plans covering certain employees, primarily in Switzerland, the U.S. and Ireland. For such plans, we are required to disaggregate the service cost component of net benefit costs and report those costs in the same line item or items in the Consolidated and Combined Statements of Operations as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The other nonservice components of net benefit costs are required to be presented separately from the service cost component. We record the service cost component of Pension ongoing (income) expense in Cost of goods sold or Selling, general and administrative expenses. The remaining components of net benefit costs within Pension ongoing (income) expense, primarily interest costs and assumed return on plan assets, are recorded in Non-operating expense (income). We recognize net actuarial gains or losses in excess of 10% of the greater of the fair value of plan assets or the plans’ projected benefit obligation (the corridor) annually in the fourth quarter each year (“MTM Adjustment”). The MTM Adjustment is recorded in Non-operating expense (income). For periods prior to the Spin-Off, we sponsored a defined benefit pension plan covering certain employees in Ireland. Additionally, certain Garrett employees participated in defined benefit pension plans (the “Shared Plans”) sponsored by Honeywell which includes participants of other Honeywell subsidiaries and operations. We accounted for our participation in the Shared Plans as a multiemployer benefit plan. Accordingly, we did not record an asset or liability to recognize the funded status of the Shared Plans. The related pension expense was based on annual service cost of active Garrett participants and reported within Cost of goods sold in the Consolidated and Combined Statements 94 of Operations. The pension expense specifically identified for the active Garrett participants in the Shared Plans for the year ended December 31, 2018 was $5 million. Foreign Currency Translation—Assets and liabilities of subsidiaries operating outside the United States with a functional currency other than U.S. Dollars are translated into U.S. Dollars using year-end exchange rates. Sales, costs and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates in effect during the year. Foreign currency translation gains and losses are included as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Derivative Financial Instruments—We minimize our risks from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations through our normal operating and financing activities and, when deemed appropriate through the use of derivative financial instruments. Derivative financial instruments are used to manage risk and are not used for trading or other speculative purposes. Derivative financial instruments that qualify for hedge accounting must be designated and effective as a hedge of the identified risk exposure at the inception of the contract. Accordingly, changes in fair value of the derivative contract must be highly correlated with changes in fair value of the underlying hedged item at inception of the hedge and over the life of the hedge contract. All derivatives are recorded on the balance sheet as assets or liabilities and measured at fair value. For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the changes in fair value of the derivatives are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and subsequently recognized in earnings when the hedged items impact earnings. Cash flows of such derivative financial instruments are classified consistent with the underlying hedged item. On September 27, 2018, we early adopted the new accounting guidance contained in ASU 2017-12 on a modified retrospective approach. The new standard is intended to improve and simplify rules relating to hedge accounting, including the elimination of periodic hedge ineffectiveness, recognition of components excluded from hedge effectiveness assessment, the ability to elect to perform subsequent effectiveness assessments qualitatively, and other provisions designed to provide more transparency around the economics of a company’s hedging strategy. Income Taxes—We account for income taxes pursuant to the asset and liability method which requires us to recognize current tax liabilities or receivables for the amount of taxes we estimate are payable or refundable for the current year and deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and their respective tax bases of assets and liabilities and the expected benefits of net operating loss and credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period enacted. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that a portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income and the reversal of deferred tax liabilities during the period in which related temporary differences become deductible. Prior to the Spin-Off, the tax provision was presented on a separate company basis as if we were a separate filer. The effects of tax adjustments and settlements from taxing authorities are presented in our Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements in the period to which they relate as if we were a separate filer. Our current obligations for taxes were settled with our Former Parent on an estimated basis and adjusted in later periods as appropriate. All income taxes due to or due from our Former Parent that have not been settled or recovered by the end of the period are reflected in Invested deficit within the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. We are subject to income tax in the United States (federal, state and local) as well as other jurisdictions in which we operate. The tax provision was calculated as if the Business was operating on a stand-alone basis and filed separate tax returns in the jurisdiction in which it operates. Therefore, cash tax payments and items of current and deferred taxes may not be reflective of the actual tax balances prior to or subsequent to the Spin-Off. Earnings per share—Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and all dilutive potential common shares outstanding. On October 1, 2018, the date of consummation of the Spin-Off, 74,070,852 shares of the Company’s Common Stock were distributed to Honeywell stockholders of record as of September 18, 2018 who held their shares through the Distribution Date. Basic and diluted EPS for all periods prior to the Spin-Off reflect the number of distributed shares, or 74,070,852 shares. For 2018, the distributed shares were treated as issued and outstanding from January 1, 2018 for purposes of calculating historical basic earnings per share. Basic and 95 diluted weighted average of common shares outstanding for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 were 75,543,461, 74,602,868 and 74,059,240 and 76,100,509, 75,934,373 and 74,402,148, respectively. Use of Estimates—The preparation of the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements and related disclosures in the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates and assumptions are periodically reviewed and the effects of changes are reflected in the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements in the period they are determined to be necessary. In connection with the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases on the Petition Date, the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic No. 852, Reorganizations. See Note 2, Reorganization and Chapter 11 Proceedings, of the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements for further details. Liabilities Subject to Compromise—Liabilities subject to compromise include pre-petition liabilities that are unsecured, under-secured or where it cannot be determined that the liabilities are fully secured. Liabilities that may be affected by a plan of reorganization must be reported at the amounts expected to be allowed by the Bankruptcy Court, even if they may be settled for lesser amounts as a result of the plan of reorganization or negotiations with creditors. If there is uncertainty about whether a secured claim is undersecured, or will be impaired under the plan of reorganization, the entire amount of the claim is included with prepetition claims in liabilities subject to compromise. Reorganization Items, Net— Effective on September 20,2020, we began to apply the provisions of accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 852, Reorganizations, which is applicable to companies under bankruptcy protection, and requires amendments to the presentation of key financial statement line items. ASC 852 requires that the financial statements for periods subsequent to the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases distinguish transactions and events that are directly associated with the reorganization from the ongoing operations of the business. Revenues, expenses, realized gains and losses, and provisions for losses that can be directly associated with the reorganization and restructuring of the business must be reported separately as reorganization items, net in the consolidated statements of operations beginning September 20, 2020. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which amends certain disclosure requirements related to fair value measures. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within that fiscal year. Effective January 1, 2020, the Company adopted the new guidance. The adoption did not have an impact on our Consolidated Balance Sheets, Consolidated and Combined Statements of Operations and related Notes to the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within that fiscal year. Early adoption is permitted. Adoption of the new standard resulted in an increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts of $5 million which was recognized as a cumulative-effect adjustment to opening retained earnings as of January 1, 2020. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, Compensation-Retirement Benefits Defined Benefit Plans – General (Subtopic 715-20), which amends certain disclosure requirements related to the defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within that fiscal year. Early adoption is permitted. Adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s disclosures. 96 Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform. The amendments in this Update apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The expedients and exceptions provided by the amendments do not apply to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022, except for hedging relationships existing as of December 31, 2022, that an entity has elected certain optional expedients for and that are retained through the end of the hedging relationship. We are currently evaluating the impact of the guidance related to certain existing debt agreements on our Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements. There are no other recently issued, but not yet adopted, accounting pronouncements which are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements and related disclosures. Note 4. Revenue Recognition and Contracts with Customers The Company generates revenue through the sale of products to customers in the OEM and aftermarket channels. OEM and aftermarket contracts generally include scheduling agreements that stipulate the pricing and delivery terms that identify the quantity and timing of the product to be transferred. Revenue recognition under ASC 606 is generally consistent with the previous standard, with the exception of how we account for payments made to customers in conjunction with future business. Historically these payments were recognized as a reduction of revenue at the time the payments were made. Under ASC 606, these payments result in deferred reductions to revenue that are subsequently recognized when the products are delivered to the customer. The Company evaluates the amounts capitalized each period end for recoverability and expenses any amounts that are no longer expected to be recovered over the term of the business arrangement. These payments are recorded in Other current assets and Other assets in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Disaggregated Revenue For Net sales by region (determined based on country of shipment) and channel, refer to Note 26, Concentrations. We recognize virtually all of our revenues arising from performance obligations at a point in time. Less than 1% of our revenue is satisfied over time. Contract Balances The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in unbilled receivables (contract assets) and billed accounts receivable, reported in Accounts, notes and other receivables – net, and customer advances and deposits (contract liabilities), reported in Accrued Liabilities, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Contract assets arise when the timing of cash collected from customers differs from the timing of revenue recognition. Contract assets are recognized when the revenue associated with the contract is recognized prior to billing and derecognized once invoiced in accordance with the terms of the contract. Contract liabilities are recorded in scenarios where we enter into arrangements where customers are contractually obligated to remit cash payments in advance of us satisfying performance obligations and recognizing revenue. Contract liabilities are generally derecognized when revenue is recognized. These assets and liabilities are reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period. 97 The following table summarizes our contract assets and liabilities balances: Contract assets—January 1 Contract assets—December 31 Change in contract assets—Increase/(Decrease) Contract liabilities—January 1 Contract liabilities—December 31 Change in contract liabilities—(Increase)/Decrease $ $ $ 2020 6 61 55 (3) (2) 1 Performance Obligations A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is defined as the unit of account. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. For product sales, typically each product sold to a customer represents a distinct performance obligation. Virtually all of our performance obligations are satisfied as of a point in time. Performance obligations are supported by contracts with customers, providing a framework for the nature of the distinct goods, services or bundle of goods and services. The timing of satisfying the performance obligation is typically indicated by the terms of the contract. All performance obligations are expected to be satisfied within one year, with substantially all performance obligations being satisfied within a month. The timing of satisfaction of our performance obligations does not significantly vary from the typical timing of payment, with cash advances (contract liabilities) and unbilled receivables (contract assets) being settled within 3 months. For some contracts, we may be entitled to receive an advance payment. We have applied the practical expedient to not disclose the value of remaining performance obligations for contracts with an original expected term of one year or less. Note 5.

The increase was primarily attributable to the absence of tax benefits related to the remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities for tax law changes enacted during 2019, higher tax expense because of nondeductible costs incurred in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases, the resolution of tax audits and an increase in losses for jurisdictions where we do not expect to generate future tax benefits from such losses. The increase in the effective tax rate was also impacted by overall lower earnings compared to 2019 because of the adverse impacts of COVID-19, partially offset by tax benefits from lower withholding taxes on non-US earnings. The effective tax rate increased by 214.0 percentage points in 2019 compared to 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to the absence of approximately $910 million of non-recurring tax benefits in 2018 because of a reduction in withholding taxes incurred as part of an internal restructuring of Garrett’s business in advance of the Spin-Off. The 99 increase was partially offset by approximately $60 million of tax benefits related to the remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities for tax law changes enacted during the year, primarily in Switzerland. Deferred tax assets (liabilities) The tax effects of temporary differences and tax carryforwards which give rise to future income tax benefits and payables are as follows: Deferred tax assets: Intangibles and fixed assets Pension Accruals and reserves Net operating losses and other tax attribute carryforwards Outside basis differences Other Total Deferred tax assets Valuation allowance Net deferred tax assets Deferred tax liabilities: Outside basis differences Other Total deferred tax liabilities Net deferred tax asset December 31, 2020 2019 $ $ $ $ 202 $ 18 32 35 11 29 327 (34) 293 $ (30) $ (15) (45) 248 $ 205 12 30 27 17 23 314 (27) 287 (49) (21) (70) 217 As of December 31, 2020, the Company had gross net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $132 million with the majority in the below jurisdictions. Brazil Luxembourg Switzerland Expiration Period Jurisdiction Indefinite 2037 2027 Net Operating Loss Carryforwards 53 $ 36 30 119 $ We maintain a valuation allowance of $34 million against a portion of the non-U.S. total deferred tax assets. In the event we determine that we will not be able to realize our net deferred tax assets in the future, we will reduce such amounts through an increase to tax expense in the period such determination is made. Conversely, if we determine that we will be able to realize net deferred tax assets in excess of the carrying amounts, we will decrease the recorded valuation allowance through a reduction to tax expense in the period that such determination is made. Our balance sheets present a deferred tax asset of $275 million and a deferred tax liability of $27 million after taking into account jurisdictional netting. As of December 31, 2020, $25 million of the deferred tax liability balance were reclassified to Liabilities subject to compromise. For more information, refer to Note 2, Reorganization and Chapter 11 Proceedings. The Company does not intend to permanently reinvest the undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries and has recorded a deferred tax liability mainly consisting of withholding taxes of approximately $13 million as of December 31, 2020. 100 The following table summarizes the activity related to the Company’s uncertain tax positions (excluding interest and penalties and related tax attributes): Change in unrecognized tax benefits: Balance at beginning of year Gross increases related to current period tax positions Gross increases related to prior periods tax positions Gross decreases related to prior periods tax positions Decrease related to resolutions of audits with tax authorities Expiration of the statute of limitations for the assessment of taxes Potential Indemnifications to Honeywell for US and foreign taxes as contractually obligated in connection with Tax Matters Agreement Foreign currency translation 2020 2019 2018 $ 54 $ 48 $ 100 8 6 — (7) (2) — 1 60 $ 8 — — — (2) — — 54 $ 19 9 (8) — — (71) (1) 48 Balance at end of year $ As of December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018 there were $60 million, $54 million, and $48 million, respectively, of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would be recorded as a component of Tax expense. Estimated interest and penalties related to uncertain tax benefits are classified as a component of tax expense in the Consolidated and Combined Statements of Operations and totaled $5 million of expense, $3 million of expense and $2 million of income for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, respectively. Accrued interest and penalties were $29 million, $26 million, and $23 million, as of December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, respectively. We are currently under audit in a few jurisdictions for tax years ranging from 2006 through 2017. Based on the outcome of these examinations, or as a result of the expiration of statutes of limitations for specific jurisdictions, it is reasonably possible that certain unrecognized tax benefits for tax positions taken on previously filed tax returns will materially change from those recorded as liabilities in our financial statements.

Factoring and Notes Receivables The Company entered into arrangements with financial institutions to sell eligible trade receivables. For the years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company sold $473 million and $27 million of eligible receivables, respectively, without recourse, and accounted for these arrangements as a true sale. The Company also received guaranteed bank notes without recourse, in settlement of accounts receivables, primarily in the Asia Pacific region. The Company can hold the bank notes until maturity, exchange them with suppliers to settle liabilities, or sell them to third party financial institutions in exchange for cash. For the years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company sold $160 million and $105 million of bank notes, respectively, without recourse, and accounted for these as true sales. As of December 31, 2020, the Company has pledged as collateral $18 million of guaranteed bank notes which have not been sold in order to be able to issue bank notes as payment to certain suppliers. Such pledged amounts are included as Notes receivables in Accounts, notes and other receivables – Net (Note 8). Note 10.

On October 9, 2020 (the “Closing Date”), the Company, the DIP Agent and the DIP Lenders entered into the DIP Credit Agreement. The DIP Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured, super- priority term loan (the “DIP Term Loan Facility”) with a maximum principal amount of $200 million, $100 million of which was funded on the Closing Date and $100 million of which was subsequently funded on October 22, 2020 (the “Delayed Draw Borrowing Date”), following entry of the Bankruptcy Court’s final order approving the DIP Term Loan Facility on October 21, 2020. The proceeds of the DIP Term Loan Facility are to be used by the Debtors to (a) pay certain costs, premiums, fees and expenses related to the Chapter 11 Cases, (b) make payments pursuant to any interim or final order entered by the Bankruptcy Court pursuant to any “first day” motions permitting the payment by the Debtors of any prepetition amounts then due and owing; (c) make certain adequate protection payments in accordance with the DIP Credit Agreement and (d) fund working capital needs of the Debtors and their subsidiaries to the extent permitted by the DIP Credit Agreement. The maturity date of the DIP Term Loan Facility is the earlier to occur of (a) March 31, 2021 (the “Scheduled Maturity Date”); provided, however, that upon the Company’s written request such Scheduled Maturity Date can be extended by three separate one-month extensions subject to (i) the payment of an extension fee to the Lenders equal to 0.50% of the principal amount of the Loans outstanding at the time of such extension, (ii) no default or Event of Default (as defined in the DIP Credit Agreement) existing at the time of such extension and (iii) accuracy of the representations and warranties in all material respects at the time of such extension and after giving effect thereto; and (b) the effective date of a plan of reorganization; and certain other events under the DIP Credit Agreement. The outstanding principal amount under the DIP Term Loan Facility will bear interest at a rate equal to (x) prior to March 31, 2021, LIBOR (subject to a 1.00% LIBOR floor) plus 4.50% per annum and (y) following March 31, 2021, if the Scheduled Maturity Date has been extended at such time, LIBOR (subject to a 1.00% LIBOR floor) plus 5.50% per annum, in each case, payable every 30 days in arrears. On the Closing Date, the Company paid 1.00% in commitment fees on the total commitment plus 2.00% in fees in the form of original issue discount on the initial $100 million borrowing. On the Delayed Draw Borrowing Date, date the Company paid 2.00% in fees in the form of original issue discount on the $100 million delayed draw loan. Upon an event of default, all outstanding amounts under the DIP Credit Agreement will bear interest at a rate equal to the applicable interest rate plus an additional 2.00% per annum and be payable on demand. 104 Pursuant to the terms of the DIP Credit Agreement, certain subsidiaries of the Company that guarantee the obligations arising under the prepetition Credit Agreement and that are Debtors in the Chapter 11 Case have guaranteed the Company’s obligations under the DIP Credit Agreement. Subject to certain exceptions, the DIP Term Loan Facility is secured by a security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company and the guarantors. The DIP Financing is subject to certain covenants, including, without limitation, related to the incurrence of additional debt, liens, the making of restricted payments, and the Company’s failure to comply with certain bankruptcy-related covenants, in each case as set forth in the DIP Credit Agreement. The DIP Credit Agreement contains representations, warranties and events of default that are customary for debtor-in-possession facilities of this type. The DIP Financing is subject to certain prepayment events, including, without limitation, upon the sale of certain assets, in each case as set forth in the DIP Credit Agreement. On October 12, 2020, the Company, the DIP Agent and the DIP Lenders entered into the First Amendment to the DIP Credit Agreement (the “First Amendment”). The First Amendment eliminates the obligation for the Company to pay certain fees to the DIP Lenders in connection with certain prepayment events under the DIP Credit Agreement. The principal amounts outstanding on Debtor-in-possession financing are as follows: Debtor-in-possession financing Pre-petition Long-Term Debt during the Chapter 11 Cases December 31, 2020 $ 200 We are party to the Prepetition Credit Agreement, consisting of: a seven-year term B loan facility, consisting of a tranche denominated in Euro of €375 million and a tranche denominated in U.S. Dollars of $425 million (the “Term B Facility”); a five-year term A loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of €330 million (the “Term A Facility” and, together with the Term B Facility, the “Term Loan Facilities”); and a five-year revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of €430 million (the “Revolving Facility” and, together with the Term Loan Facilities, the “Senior Secured Credit Facilities”). The Prepetition Credit Agreement was amended on June 12, 2020 (the “2020 Amendment”). On September 27, 2018, we completed the offering of €350 million (approximately $410 million based on exchange rates as of September 27, 2018) in aggregate principal amount of 5.125% senior notes due 2026 (the “Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes bear interest at a fixed annual interest rate of 5.125% and mature on October 15, 2026. The Senior Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated September 27, 2018 (the “Indenture”), which, among other things and subject to certain limitations and exceptions, limits our ability and the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to: (i) incur, assume or guarantee additional indebtedness or issue certain disqualified equity interests and preferred shares, (ii) pay dividends or distributions on, or redeem or repurchase, capital stock and make other restricted payments, (iii) make investments, (iv) consummate certain asset sales or transfers, (v) engage in certain transactions with affiliates, (vi) grant or assume certain liens on assets to secure debt unless the Senior Notes are secured equally and ratably (vii) restrict dividends and other payments by certain of their subsidiaries and (vii) consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our or our restricted subsidiaries’ assets. All debt issuance costs, except for those associated to the Revolving Credit Facility, are deferred and recognized as a direct deduction to the related debt liability and are amortized to interest expense over the debt term. The company paid approximately $37 million of debt issuance costs in connection with the Term A Facility, Term B Facility, and Senior Notes. As a result of the Chapter 11 Cases, and in order to adjust the carrying amount of the debt to the expected allowed claim amount in accordance with ASC 852, the Company expensed $6 million of deferred issuance costs related to the pre-petition Senior Notes which are not fully secured. These costs were recorded to Reorganization items, net, in the Consolidated and Combined Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2020. Refer to Note 2, Reorganization and Chapter 11 Proceedings for further discussion. Debt issuance costs associated with the Revolving Credit Facility were capitalized in Other assets and are amortized to interest expense over the debt term. Approximately, $6 million of debt issuance costs were paid in connection with the Revolving Credit Facility. 105 The principal amounts outstanding on our Senior Secured Credit Facilities and the Senior Notes as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 are as follows: Senior Secured Credit Facilities (1): Term Loans Borrowings under revolving credit facility Total consolidated Secured Debt Long-term debt, net subject to compromise (2): Senior Notes Total debt, prior to reclassification to Liabilities subject to compromise Less: current portion Less: Amounts reclassified to Liabilities subject to compromise Total long-term debt December 31, 2020 December 31, 2019 (Dollars in millions) 1,082 370 1,452 $ 429 1,881 $ — (429) 1,452 $ 1,026 — 1,026 387 1,413 (4) — 1,409 $ $ $ (1) The Term A Facility, Term B Facility and Revolving Facility are fully secured. These continue to be accounted for under ASC 470. (2) The Senior Notes are not fully secured and have been reclassified to Liabilities subject to compromise in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2020. As of the Petition Date, the Company ceased accruing related interest expense and amortization of debt issuance costs. The commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases constituted an event of default that accelerated the Company’s obligations and terminated undrawn commitments, as applicable, under the Prepetition Credit Agreement. The Prepetition Credit Agreement provides that as a result of the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, the principal, interest and all other amounts due thereunder shall be immediately due and payable. Any efforts to enforce the payment obligations under the Prepetition Credit Agreement are automatically stayed as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases, and the creditors’ rights of enforcement in respect of the Prepetition Credit Agreement are subject to the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. During the Chapter 11 Cases and pursuant to an order of the Bankruptcy Court, we make monthly payments of adequate protection at the contractual non-default rate of interest on loans and certain other obligations under our Senior Secured Credit Facilities. Following commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, the contractual non-default rate of interest that is applicable under Senior Secured Credit Facilities is either (a) in the case of dollar denominated borrowings, base rate determined by reference to the highest of (1) the rate of interest last quoted by The Wall Street Journal as the “prime rate” in the United States, (2) the greater of the federal funds effective rate and the overnight bank funding rate, plus 0.5% and (3) the one month adjusted LIBOR rate, plus 1% per annum (“ABR”), (b) in the case of borrowings denominated in certain permitted foreign currencies other than dollars or euros, an adjusted LIBOR rate (“LIBOR”) (which shall not be less than zero), or (c) in the case of borrowings denominated in euros, an adjusted EURIBOR rate (“EURIBOR”) (which shall not be less than zero), in each case, plus an applicable margin. Pursuant to the 2020 Amendment, (i) the margin applicable to loans under the Term B Facility increased by 75 basis points through the maturity date and (ii) the margin applicable to loans under the Revolving Facility and Term A Facility increased by 25 basis points until the Company delivers consolidated financial statements as of and for its first fiscal quarter ending on or after the last day of the Relief Period (as defined in the 2020 Amendment). Pursuant to the 2020 Amendment, the margin applicable to loans under our Senior Secured Credit Facilities increased by 25 basis points on September 4, 2020 following a downgrade in our corporate credit rating by S&P Global ratings. The applicable margin for the U.S. Dollar tranche of the Term B Facility is currently 2.50% per annum (for ABR loans) while that for the euro tranche of the Term B Facility is currently 3.75% per annum (for EURIBOR loans). The applicable margin for each of the Term A Facility and the Revolving Facility varies based on our leverage ratio which is increased by 25 basis points until the Company delivers consolidated financial statements as of and for its first fiscal quarter ending on or after the last day of the Relief Period. Accordingly, the interest rates for the Senior Secured Credit Facilities will fluctuate during the term of the Credit Agreement based on changes in the ABR, LIBOR, EURIBOR or future changes in our corporate rating or leverage ratio. 106 Contractual Maturities In connection with our Chapter 11 cases, all pre-petition debt amounts have been stayed and separately stated as part of Liabilities subject to compromise. Their resolution will be based upon the requirements in the Plan of Reorganization. Given the uncertainties related to the resolution of the Chapter 11 cases, all pre-petition debt has been included at their contractual maturities. 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025 Thereafter Less: current portion December 31, 2020 4 70 247 4 777 431 1,533 — 1,533 $ $ $ Note 17. Leases We have operating leases that primarily consist of real estate, machinery and equipment. Our leases have remaining lease terms of up to 10 years, some of which include options to extend the leases for up to two years, and some of which include options to terminate the leases within the year. The components of lease expense are as follows: Operating lease cost Rent expense under ASC 840 was $14 million in 2018. Supplemental cash flow information related to operating leases is as follows: Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities: Operating cash outflows from operating leases Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for lease obligations: Operating leases Supplemental balance sheet information related to operating leases is as follows: Other assets Accrued liabilities Other liabilities Liabilities subject to compromise 107 Years Ended December 31, 2019 2020 $ 15 $ 14 $ $ $ Years Ended December 31, 2019 2020 13 $ 7 $ Years Ended December 31, 2019 2020 36 $ 5 15 19 12 12 35 8 28 — Weighted-average lease term (in years) Weighted-average discount rate Maturities of operating lease liabilities were as follows: Years Ended December 31, 2019 2020 5.14 6.16 6.30 6.36 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025 Thereafter Total lease payments Less imputed interest $ Year Ended December 31, 2020 12 10 7 5 4 8 46 (7) 39 $ Note 18. Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measures Credit and Market Risk—We continually monitor the creditworthiness of our customers to which we grant credit terms in the normal course of business. The terms and conditions of our credit sales are designed to mitigate or eliminate concentrations of credit risk with any single customer. Foreign Currency Risk Management—We are exposed to market risks from changes in currency exchange rates. These exposures may impact future earnings and/or operating cash flows. Our exposure to market risk for changes in foreign currency exchange rates arises from international financing activities between subsidiaries, foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities and transactions arising from international trade. We hedge currency exposures with natural offsets to the fullest extent possible and, once these opportunities have been exhausted, through foreign currency exchange forward contracts (foreign currency exchange contracts). We hedge monetary assets and liabilities denominated in non-functional currencies. Prior to conversion into U.S. dollars, these assets and liabilities are remeasured at spot exchange rates in effect on the balance sheet date. The effects of changes in spot rates are recognized in earnings and included in Non-operating (income) expense. At December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had contracts with aggregate gross notional amounts of $19 million and $1,820 million, respectively, to limit interest rate risk and to exchange foreign currencies, principally the U.S. Dollar, Swiss Franc, British Pound, Euro, Chinese Yuan, Japanese Yen, Mexican Peso, New Romanian Leu, Czech Koruna, Australian Dollar and Korean Won. As a result of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Company has been limited in its ability to enter into hedging transactions. The Company has obtained Bankruptcy Court authorization for continuing hedging activities in the ordinary course of business, however, counterparties have either been unwilling to enter into hedging transactions with the Company during the Chapter 11 Cases or have required the Company to fully cash collateralize its obligations under the relevant hedging instrument, which has effectively reduced the Company’s ability to hedge foreign currency exposures beyond those relating to trade payables and receivables. 108 Fair Value of Financial Instruments—The FASB’s accounting guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price).Financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019: Designated forward currency exchange contracts Undesignated instruments: Undesignated cross-currency swap Undesignated interest rate swap Undesignated forward currency exchange contracts Total undesignated instruments Total designated and undesignated instruments Notional Amounts Assets Liabilities December 31, 2020 December 31, 2019 December 31, 2020 December 31, 2019 December 31, 2020 December 31, 2019 Fair Value — $ 392 — $ — — 19 19 420 561 447 1,428 — — — — (a) 5 — (c) — (a) 2 2 — $ — — — — (b) 1 1 1 (d) (b) 3 5 $ 19 $ 1,820 $ — $ 7 $ — $ 6 (a) (b) (c) (d) Recorded within Other current assets in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets Recorded within Accrued liabilities in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets Recorded within Other assets in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets Recorded within Other liabilities in the Company´s Consolidated Balance Sheets On June 7, 2019, the Company entered into interest rate swap contracts to limit its exposure to interest rate risk by converting the interest payments on variable rate debt to fixed rate payments. These interest rate swaps have not been designated as hedging instruments for accounting purposes. The Company initiated a cash flow hedging program in the first quarter of 2019 and has since then entered into forward currency exchange contracts to mitigate exposure to foreign currency exchange rate volatility and the associated impact on earnings related to forecasted foreign currency commitments. These forward currency exchange contracts are assessed as highly effective and are designated as cash flow hedges. Gains and losses on derivatives qualifying as cash flow hedges are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until the underlying transactions are recognized in earnings. On September 27, 2018, the Company entered into a floating-floating cross-currency swap contract to hedge the foreign currency exposure from foreign currency-denominated debt which will mature on September 27, 2025. The gain or loss on this derivative instrument is recognized in earnings and included in Non-operating (income). For the year ended December 31, 2020, losses recorded in Non-operating expense (income), under the cross-currency swap contract were $20 million. For the year ended December 31, 2019, gains recorded in Non-operating expense (income), under the cross-currency swap contract were $1 million. The foreign currency exchange, interest rate swap and cross-currency swap contracts are valued using market observable inputs. As such, these derivative instruments are classified within Level 2. The assumptions used in measuring fair value of the cross-currency swap are considered Level 2 inputs, which are based upon market observable interest rate curves, cross currency basis curves, credit default swap curves, and foreign exchange rates. Following our voluntary filing for Chapter 11 protection, and as noted in the table above, the majority of our foreign exchange, interest rate swap, and cross-currency swap contracts were terminated at or prior to September 30, 2020. All outstanding amounts as of December 31, 2020 are classified as Other Liabilities and are fully secured and payable upon Emergence. Any valuation difference from our Petition Date to the termination date will be reflected in Reorganization items, net. See Note 2, Reorganization and Chapter 11 Proceedings, for additional information. 109 A number of our forward currency exchange contracts are also designated as accounting hedges. Upon termination, these amounts have been dedesignated. As the Company still anticipates the forecasted transaction to commence, the amounts in accumulated comprehensive incomes will be released based on our original forecast. The carrying value of Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, Account receivables and Notes and Other receivables contained in the Consolidated Balance Sheets approximates fair value. The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that were not carried at fair value: Liabilities not subject to compromise: Terms Loans A and B DIP Financing Liabilities subject to compromise: Senior Notes December 31, 2020 Carrying Value Fair Value $ $ $ 1,082 $ 200 $ 1,083 200 429 $ 429 The Company determined the fair value of certain of its long-term debt and related current maturities utilizing transactions in the listed markets for similar liabilities. As such, the fair value of the long-term debt and related current maturities is considered Level 2. Note 19. Other Liabilities Due to the Chapter 11 filing, Other Liabilities that existed as of December 31, 2020 and were deemed pre-petition, unsecured were reclassified as Liabilities subject to compromise, refer to Note 2, Reorganization and Chapter 11 Proceedings.

The Stock Incentive Plan provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance awards, restricted stock units, restricted stock, other stock-based awards, and cash-based awards to employees of Garrett or its affiliates, and independent contractors or consultants of Garrett. The maximum aggregate number of shares of our common stock that may be issued under the Stock Incentive Plan is 10,000,000 shares and, for the Director Equity Plan, 400,000 shares. Up to 5,000,000 shares may be granted as incentive stock options under the Stock Incentive Plan. As of December 31, 2020, there were 5,641,452 and 344,860 shares of our common stock available for future issuance under the Stock Incentive Plan and Director Equity Plan, respectively. Restricted Stock Units —Restricted stock unit (“RSU”) awards are issued to certain key employees and directors at fair market value at the date of grant. RSUs typically vest over a period of three or four years, and when vested, each unit entitles the holder to one share of our common stock. 112 The following table summarizes information about RSU activity related to our Stock Incentive Plan and Director Equity Plan for each of the periods presented: Non-vested at December 31, 2018 Granted Vested Forfeited Non-vested at December 31, 2019 Granted Vested Forfeited Non-vested at December 31, 2020 Number of Restricted Stock Units Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Per Share 3,369,622 $ 629,037 (967,518) (236,501) 2,794,640 $ 878,904 (1,185,121) (949,454) 1,538,969 10.12 15.36 5.26 14.47 12.62 6.70 7.83 8.11 13.11 As of December 31, 2020, there was approximately $9 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested RSUs granted under our Stock Incentive Plan, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.5 years. The following table summarizes the impact to the Consolidated and Combined Statement of Operations from RSUs: Compensation expense Future income tax benefit recognized Years Ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 $ 9 $ 3 15 $ — 5 1 Stock Options — The exercise price, term and other conditions applicable to each option granted under our stock incentive plans are generally determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board. The exercise price of stock options is set on the grant date and may not be less than the fair market value per share of our stock on that date. The fair value is recognized as an expense over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the award). Options generally vest over a period four years and expire after ten years. The following table summarizes the impact to the Consolidated and Combined Statement of Operations from stock options. There were no stock options granted prior to 2019. Compensation expense Future income tax benefit recognized Years Ended December 31, 2020 2019 $ $ 1 — 1 — The fair value related to stock options granted was determined using Black-Scholes option pricing model and the weighted average assumptions are shown in the table below: Key Black-Scholes Assumptions Risk-free interest rate Expected term (years) Volatility Dividend yield Fair value per stock option 113 Year Ended December 31, 2020 2.6% 6.25 42.08% 0.0% 7.28 The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Volatility is determined based on the historical volatility of peer companies over a period corresponding to the expected term. Expected term is determined using a simplified approach, calculated as the midpoint between the vesting period and the contractual term of the award. The risk-free interest rate is determined based upon the yield of an outstanding U.S. Treasury note with a term equal to the expected term of the option granted. The following table summarizes information about stock option activity related to the Stock Incentive Plan for each of the periods presented: Number of Stock Options Weighted Average Exercise Price (per share) Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (years) Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands) — — Outstanding as of December 31, 2018 Granted Exercised Forfeited Expired Outstanding as of December 31, 2019 Granted Exercised Forfeited Expired Outstanding as of December 31, 2020 Exercisable as of December 31, 2020 $ — 483,408 — (34,375) — 449,033 — — (37,482) (8,034) 403,517 102,420 — 16.17 — 16.17 — 16.17 — — 16.17 16.17 16.17 — 9.26 — 8.26 — — — There were no stock options granted in 2020. No options were exercised during the year ended December 31, 2020. As of December 31, 2020, there was no intrinsic value for the outstanding and exercisable shares under options. As of December 31, 2020, there was $2 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to stock options that is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 2.2 years. Performance Stock Units — The Company has issued PSUs under its 2019 and 2020 long term incentive plans which, upon vesting, entitles the holder to shares of our common stock. The actual number of shares an employee receives for each PSU depends on the Company’s performance against various measures. For the 2019 plan, the performance measures are related to organic revenue growth, adjusted EBITDA and leveraged cash flows, weighted 20%, 40%, and 40%, respectively, over a three-year performance period from January 1, 2019 through December 31, 2021. For the 2020 plan, the performance measures are related to relative organic revenue growth, adjusted free cash flow conversion, and relative total shareholder return (“TSR”), weighted 30%, 30%, and 40%, respectively, over a three-year performance period from January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2022. In addition, for certain key employees, the PSUs granted under the 2020 plan were subject to an absolute TSR modifier. Each grantee is granted a target level of PSUs and may earn between 0% and 200% (250% for employees whose PSUs were subject to an absolute TSR modifier) of the target level depending on the Company’s performance against the financial goals. The PSUs granted under the 2020 plan were forfeited as a condition to the receipt of the continuity awards, as explained below. 114 The following table summarizes information about PSU activity related to the Stock Incentive Plan for each of the periods presented: Non-vested at December 31, 2018 Granted Vested Forfeited Non-vested at December 31, 2019 Granted Vested Forfeited Non-vested at December 31, 2020 Number of Performance Stock Units Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Per Share — $ 379,090 — (47,769) 331,321 $ 1,021,069 — (1,038,279) 314,111 — 16.17 — 16.17 16.17 8.36 — 8.48 16.17 The fair value of the PSUs is based on the fair market value of the Company’s stock at the grant date. The number of underlying shares to be issued will be based on actual performance achievement over the performance period. The per unit weighted average fair value at the date of grant for PSUs granted during the year ended December 31, 2020 was $8.36. The fair value of each PSU grant is amortized monthly into compensation expense on a graded vesting (accelerated) basis over a vesting period of 36 months. The accrual of compensation costs is based on our estimate of the final expected value of the award and is adjusted as required for the performance-based condition. The Company estimates forfeitures at time of issuance, which results in a reduction in compensation expense. As the payout of PSUs includes dividend equivalents, no separate dividend yield assumption is required in calculating the fair value of the PSUs. The Company currently does not pay dividends. As of December 31, 2020, there was approximately $1 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested PSUs granted under the Stock Incentive Plan which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1 year. The following table summarizes the impact to the Consolidated and Combined Statement of Operations from PSUs. There were no PSUs granted prior to 2019. Compensation expense Future income tax benefit recognized Years Ended December 31, 2020 2019 $ $ — — 2 — Continuity Awards— In June 2020, in response to the unprecedented and ongoing market uncertainty resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and in connection with the Board’s evaluation of strategic alternatives for the Company, the Compensation Committee approved one-time cash continuity awards (“Continuity Awards”) to ensure retention of key individuals in exchange for the forfeiture of RSUs and PSUs granted in February 2020. The Continuity Awards total $11 million, with $9 million paid in June 2020 and $2 million expected to be paid in 2021. The Continuity Awards are subject to repayment if prior to June 2021, the recipient has a qualifying termination of employment. Given the Continuity Awards have a 1-year service requirement, the combined transaction is accounted for as a modification to liability-classified awards. The total incremental compensation cost resulting from the modification is $5 million. As of December 31, 2020, there was $5 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to the Continuity Awards that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 0.5 years. 115 The following table summarizes information about Continuity Award activity for the year ended December 31, 2020: Non-vested at December 31, 2019 Granted Vested Forfeited Non-vested at December 31, 2020 Number of Awards Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Per Award — $ 43 — — 43 $ — 257,536 — — 257,536 The following table summarizes the impact to the Consolidated and Combined Statement of Operations from Continuity Awards for the year ended December 31, 2020. Compensation expense Future income tax benefit recognized Year Ended December 31, 2020 $ 7 1 Stock Based Awards Granted by Honeywell—For periods prior to the Spin-Off, Honeywell maintained stock-based compensation plans for the benefit of its officers, directors and employees. Under the Former Parent´s stock-based compensation plans, Honeywell awarded RSUs, stock options and PSUs to certain employees. Stock-based compensation expense related to awards granted by Honeywell recognized in the Consolidated and Combined Statements of Operations amounted to $16 million for the year ended December 31, 2018 of which approximately $10 million are specifically identified for employees within the Business and $6 million is related to shared employees not specifically identifiable to the Business. These amounts represent stock- based compensation expenses attributable to the Business based on the awards and terms previously granted under the incentive compensation plans to employees within the Business and an allocation of Former Parent’s corporate and shared functional employee stock based compensation expenses. Accordingly, the amounts presented are not necessarily indicative of current and future awards and do not necessarily reflect the results that the Business would have experienced as an independent company for the periods presented. Note 22. Earnings Per Share On October 1, 2018, the date of consummation of the Spin-Off, 74,070,852 shares of the Company’s common stock were distributed to Honeywell stockholders of record as of September 18, 2018 who held their shares through the Distribution Date. Basic and Diluted EPS for all historical periods prior to the Spin-Off reflect the number of distributed shares, or 74,070,852 shares. For 2018, these shares are treated as issued and outstanding from January 1, 2018 to the Spin-Off for purposes of calculating basic earnings per share. The details of the earnings per share calculations for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 are as follows: Basic Net Income Weighted average common shares outstanding EPS – Basic 2020 Years Ended December 31, 2019 2018 $ $ 80 $ 75,543,461 1.06 $ 313 $ 74,602,868 4.20 $ 1,206 74,059,240 16.28 116 Diluted Net Income Weighted average common shares outstanding – Basic Dilutive effect of unvested RSUs Weighted average common shares outstanding – Diluted EPS – Diluted 2020 Years Ended December 31, 2019 2018 $ 80 $ 313 $ 1,206 75,543,461 557,048 74,602,868 1,331,505 74,059,240 342,908 76,100,509 75,934,373 74,402,148 $ 1.05 $ 4.12 $ 16.21 Diluted EPS is computed based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the year plus the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents using the treasury stock method and the average market price of our common stock for the year. The diluted earnings per share calculations exclude the effect of stock options when the options’ assumed proceeds exceed the average market price of the common shares during the period. For the years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the weighted number of stock options excluded from the computations was 428,690 and 483,408, respectively. These stock options were outstanding for the years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Note 23. Commitments and Contingencies Chapter 11 Proceedings Commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases automatically stayed the proceedings and actions against us that are described below, in addition to actions seeking to collect pre-petition indebtedness or to exercise control over the property of the Company’s bankruptcy estates. The Plan filed by the Debtors, if confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, will provide for the treatment of claims against the Company’s bankruptcy estates, including pre-petition liabilities that have not been satisfied or addressed during the Chapter 11 Cases. See Note 1, Background and Basis of Presentation and Note 2, Reorganization and Chapter 11 Proceedings for additional information on the Chapter 11 Cases, the RSA, the Stalking Horse Purchase Agreement, the PSA, the ECBA, the Transaction and the DIP Credit Agreement. Obligations payable to Honeywell Honeywell is a defendant in asbestos-related personal injury actions mainly related to its legacy Bendix friction materials (“Bendix”) business. The Bendix business manufactured automotive brake linings that contained chrysotile asbestos in an encapsulated form. Claimants consist largely of individuals who allege exposure to asbestos from brakes from either performing or being in the vicinity of individuals who performed brake replacements. Certain operations that were part of the Bendix business were transferred to Garrett. In connection with the Spin-Off, Garrett ASASCO, a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of the Company, entered into the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement with Honeywell on September 12, 2018. As of the Spin-Off date of October 1, 2018, Garrett ASASCO is obligated to make payments to Honeywell in amounts equal to 90% of Honeywell’s asbestos-related liability payments and accounts payable, primarily related to the Bendix business in the United States, as well as certain environmental-related liability payments and accounts payable and non-United States asbestos-related liability payments and accounts payable, in each case related to legacy elements of the Business, including the legal costs of defending and resolving such liabilities, less 90% of Honeywell’s net insurance receipts and, as may be applicable, certain other recoveries associated with such liabilities. Pursuant to the terms of this Honeywell Indemnity Agreement, Garrett ASASCO is responsible for paying to Honeywell such amounts, up to a cap of an amount equal to the Euro-to-U.S. dollar exchange rate determined by Honeywell as of a date within two business days prior to the date of the Distribution (1.16977 USD = 1 EUR) equivalent of $175 million in respect of such liabilities arising in any given calendar year. The payments that Garrett ASASCO is required to make to Honeywell pursuant to the terms of the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement will not be deductible for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Honeywell Indemnity Agreement provides that the agreement will terminate upon the earlier of (x) December 31, 2048 or (y) December 31st of the third consecutive year during which certain amounts owed to Honeywell during each such year 117 were less than $25 million as converted into Euros in accordance with the terms of the agreement. During the first quarter of 2020, Garrett ASASCO paid Honeywell the Euro-equivalent of $35 million in connection with the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement. Honeywell and Garrett agreed to defer the payment under the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement due May 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020 (the “Q2 Payment”), however we do not expect Garrett ASASCO to make payments to Honeywell under the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases. The Plan, if confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, will include a global settlement with Honeywell providing for, among other things, the full and final satisfaction, settlement, release, and discharge of all liabilities under or related to the Indemnity Agreements. On December 2, 2019, the Company and its subsidiary, Garrett ASASCO, filed a Summons with Notice in the Commercial Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York (the “NY Supreme Court”) commencing an action (the “Action”) against Honeywell, certain of Honeywell’s subsidiaries and certain of Honeywell’s employees for declaratory judgment, breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duties, aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duties, corporate waste, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and unjust enrichment. On January 15, 2020, the Company and Garrett ASASCO, filed a Complaint in the NY Supreme Court in connection with the Action. The lawsuit arises from the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement. The Company is seeking declaratory relief; compensatory damages in an amount to be determined at trial; rescission of the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement; attorneys’ fees and costs and such other and further relief as the Court may deem just and proper. There can be no assurance as to the time and resources that will be required to pursue these claims or the ultimate outcome of the lawsuit. Among other claims, Garrett asserts that Honeywell is not entitled to indemnification because it improperly seeks indemnification for amounts attributable to punitive damages and intentional misconduct, and because it has failed to establish other prerequisites for indemnification under New York law. Specifically, the claim asserts that Honeywell has failed to establish its right to indemnity for each and every asbestos settlement of the thousands for which it seeks indemnification. The Action seeks to establish that the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement is not enforceable, in whole or in part. On March 5, 2020, Honeywell filed a “Notice of Motion to Dismiss Garrett’s Complaint.”. On September 20, 2020, Garrett and certain of its subsidiaries each filed the Chapter 11 Cases. On September 23, 2020, Garrett removed the case to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and on September 24, 2020, the case was referred to the Bankruptcy Court, where the case is currently pending. On October 13, 2020, Honeywell filed a motion to dismiss in the Bankruptcy Court. Garrett does not believe Honeywell’s motion has merit. A pre-trial conference took place on October 22, 2020. The Court heard argument on Honeywell’s pending motion to dismiss on November 18, 2020; the Court has not yet issued a decision. On November 2, 2020, the Garrett entities that are Debtors and Debtors in Possession filed a Motion Pursuant to Sections 105(a) and 502(c) To Establish Procedures For Estimating The Maximum Amount Of Honeywell’s Claims And Related Relief (“Motion”). The Court heard argument on the Motion on November 18. The Court ordered an estimation proceeding to take place to estimate all of Honeywell’s claims against the Garrett entities that are Debtors and Debtors in Possession. On December 18, 2020, Honeywell filed proofs of claim in the Chapter 11 Cases, asserting that the Company owes at least $1.9 billion in respect of such claims. The Bankruptcy Court was scheduled to estimate the amount of Honeywell’s claims in an estimation proceeding that was scheduled to commence on February 1, 2021. As noted below, the estimation proceeding has been stayed by order of the Bankruptcy Court. On January 11, 2021, the Company announced that it had agreed to settle Honeywell’s claims as part of a revised Plan. The Plan is subject to various conditions, including approval by the Bankruptcy Court. Under the Plan, Honeywell would receive a $375 million payment and Series B Preferred Stock payable in installments of $35 million in 2022, and $100 million annually 2023-2030. The Company would have the option to prepay the Series B Preferred Stock in full at any time at a call price equivalent to $584 million as of the Emergence date (representing the present value of the installments at a 7.25% discount rate). The Company will also have the option to make a partial payment of the Series B Preferred Stock, reducing the present value to $400 million, at any time within 18 months of Emergence. On January 15, 2021, the Bankruptcy Court ordered that the Action and the estimation proceeding both be stayed pending the Bankruptcy Court’s consideration of the Plan. The confirmation hearing for the Plan is currently scheduled to take place in April 2021, however the hearing may be rescheduled for a later date. 118 On September 12, 2018, we also entered into a tax matters agreement with Honeywell (the “Tax Matters Agreement”), which governs the respective rights, responsibilities and obligations of Honeywell and us after the Spin-Off with respect to all tax matters (including tax liabilities, tax attributes, tax returns and tax contests). The Tax Matters Agreement generally provides that, following the Spin-Off date of October 1, 2018, we are responsible and will indemnify Honeywell for all taxes, including income taxes, sales taxes, value-added and payroll taxes, relating to Garrett for all periods, including periods prior to the completion date of the Spin-Off. Among other items, as a result of the mandatory transition tax imposed by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, Garrett ASASCO is required to make payments to a subsidiary of Honeywell in the amount representing the net tax liability of Honeywell under the mandatory transition tax attributable to us, as determined by Honeywell. Additionally, the Tax Matters Agreement provides that Garrett ASASCO is to make payments to a subsidiary of Honeywell for a portion of Honeywell’s net tax liability under Section 965(h)(6)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code for mandatory transition taxes that Honeywell determined is attributable to us (the “MTT Claim”). Following the Spin-Off, Honeywell asserted that Garrett ASASCO was obligated to pay $240 million to Honeywell for the MTT Claim under the Tax Matters Agreement. Accordingly, and in connection with the Tax Matters Agreement, we made payments to Honeywell, under protest, for the Euro-equivalent of $18 million and $19 million during 2019 and the fourth quarter of 2018, respectively, for the MTT Claim. On October 30, 2020, however, Honeywell filed an SEC Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2020, reporting that its claim against us under the Tax Matters Agreement, including the MTT Claim, is now $273 million. Under the terms of the Tax Matters Agreement, Garrett ASASCO is required to pay this amount in Euros, without interest, in five annual installments, each equal to 8% of the aggregate amount, followed by three additional annual installments equal to 15%, 20% and 25% of the aggregate amount, respectively. Following the Spin-Off in October 2018, Garrett ASASCO paid the first annual installment in October 2018, with subsequent annual installments to be paid in April of each year. The annual installment due on April 1, 2020 was initially deferred to December 31, 2020 in agreement with Honeywell, and subsequently not paid as a result of the automatic stay applicable to the Debtors under the Bankruptcy Code as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases. We do not expect Garrett ASASCO to make payments to Honeywell under the Tax Matters Agreement during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases. On July 17, 2020, we provided notice to Honeywell asserting that Honeywell has caused material breaches of the Tax Matters Agreement and that the Tax Matters Agreement is unenforceable. The value and validity of Honeywell’s claims under the Tax Matters Agreement, including the MTT Claim, are currently being litigated in the Chapter 11 Cases. As described above, the Plan, if confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, will include a global settlement with Honeywell providing for, among other things, the full and final satisfaction, settlement, release, and discharge of all liabilities under or related to the Tax Matters Agreement. In addition, the Tax Matters Agreement addresses the allocation of liability for taxes incurred as a result of restructuring activities undertaken to effectuate the Spin-Off. The Tax Matters Agreement also provides that we are required to indemnify Honeywell for certain taxes (and reasonable expenses) resulting from the failure of the Spin-Off and related internal transactions to qualify for their intended tax treatment under U.S. federal, state and local income tax law, as well as foreign tax law. Further, the Tax Matters Agreement also imposes certain restrictions on us and our subsidiaries (including restrictions on share issuances, redemptions or repurchases, business combinations, sales of assets and similar transactions) that are designed to address compliance with Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and are intended to preserve the tax-free nature of the Spin-Off. 119 The Obligation payable to Honeywell related to these agreements was deemed a pre-petition, unsecured liability subject to compromise. On the Petition Date, the Obligation was stayed from further payment and, in accordance with ASC 852-10, measured at the expected allowed claim amount. The Company measured the expected allowed claim as of December 31, 2020 utilizing a combination of data points including: (1) the historical actuarial claims data provided by Honeywell up to December 31, 2019 (2) the aforementioned Honeywell claims estimation trial proceedings, (3) Honeywell’s bankruptcy claim filed with the Bankruptcy Court, and (4) the expected settlement of the Honeywell liabilities as per the Plan of Reorganization. The following table summarizes our Obligation payable to Honeywell related to these agreements. As of December 31, 2020, all amounts have been reclassified to Liabilities subject to compromise on the Consolidated Balance Sheets: Beginning of year Accrual for update to estimated liability Legal fees expensed Payments to Honeywell Currency translation adjustment End of year Current Non-current Total Beginning of year Accrual for update to estimated liability Legal fees expensed Payments to Honeywell Currency translation adjustment End of year Current Non-current Total Asbestos Matters Asbestos and environmental Tax Matters Total 2020 $ $ $ $ $ $ 1,090 — 41 (35) 100 1,196 2 1,194 1,196 Asbestos and environmental 1,244 (18) 44 (153) (27) 1,090 51 1,039 1,090 $ $ $ $ $ $ 261 — — — 25 286 40 246 286 282 3 — (18) (6) 261 18 243 261 $ $ $ $ $ $ 1,351 — 41 (35) 125 1,482 42 1,440 1,482 1,526 (15) 44 (171) (33) 1,351 69 1,282 1,351 Total 2019 Tax Matters The accounting for the majority of our asbestos-related liability payments and accounts payable reflect the terms of the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement with Honeywell entered into by Garrett ASASCO on September 12, 2018, under which Garrett ASASCO is required to make payments to Honeywell in amounts equal to 90% of Honeywell’s asbestos-related liability payments and accounts payable, primarily related to the Bendix business in the United States, as well as certain environmental-related liability payments and accounts payable and non-United States asbestos-related liability payments and accounts payable, in each case related to legacy elements of the Business, including the legal costs of defending and resolving such liabilities, less 90% of Honeywell’s net insurance receipts and, as may be applicable, certain other recoveries associated with such liabilities. The Honeywell Indemnity Agreement provides that the agreement will terminate upon the earlier of (x) December 31, 2048 or (y) December 31st of the third consecutive year during which certain amounts owed to Honeywell during each such year were less than $25 million as converted into Euros in accordance with the terms of the agreement. As stated above, on January 11, 2021, the Company announced that it had agreed to settle Honeywell’s claims as part of a revised Plan. This settlement would extinguish our obligations to Honeywell under the Honeywell Indemnity Agreement. The Plan is subject to various conditions, including approval by the Bankruptcy Court. 120 The following table summarizes information concerning both Bendix and other asbestos-related balances.

Securities Litigation On September 25, 2020, a putative securities class action complaint was filed against Garrett Motion Inc. and certain current and former Garrett officers and directors, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The case bears the caption: Steven Husson, Individually and On Behalf of All Others Similarly Situated, v. Garrett Motion Inc., Olivier Rabiller, Alessandro Gili, Peter Bracke, Sean Deason, and Su Ping Lu, Case No. 1:20-cv-07992-JPC (SDNY) (the “Husson Action”). The Husson Action asserts claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act, for securities fraud and control person liability. On September 28, 2020, the plaintiff sought to voluntarily dismiss his claim against Garrett Motion Inc. in light of the Company’s bankruptcy; this request was granted. On October 5, 2020, another putative securities class action complaint was filed against certain current and former Garrett officers and directors, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. This case bears the caption: The Gabelli Asset Fund, The Gabelli Dividend & Income Trust, The Gabelli Value 25 Fund Inc., The Gabelli Equity Trust Inc., SM Investors LP and SM Investors II LP, on behalf of themselves and all others similarly situated, v. Su Ping Lu, Olivier Rabiller, Alessandro Gili, Peter Bracke, Sean Deason, Craig Balis, Thierry Mabru, 121 Russell James, Carlos M. Cardoso, Maura J. Clark, Courtney M. Enghauser, Susan L. Main, Carsten Reinhardt, and Scott A. Tozier, Case No. 1:20-cv- 08296-JPC (SDNY) (the “Gabelli Action”). The Gabelli Action also asserts claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act. On November 5, 2020, another putative securities class action complaint was filed against certain current and former Garrett officers and directors, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. This case bears the caption: Joseph Froehlich, Individually and On Behalf of All Others Similarly Situated, v. Olivier Rabiller, Allesandro Gili, Peter Bracke, Sean Deason, and Su Ping Lu, Case No. 1:20-cv-09279-JPC (SDNY) (the “Froehlich Action”). The Froehlich Action also asserts claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act. All three actions are currently assigned to Judge John P. Cronan. Su Ping Lu filed a waiver of service in the Gabelli Action on November 10, 2020. On November 24, 2020, competing motions were filed seeking the appointment of lead plaintiff and lead counsel and the consolidation of the Husson, Gabelli, and Froehlich Actions. On December 8, 2020, counsel for the plaintiffs in the Gabelli Action – the Entwistle & Cappucci law firm – filed an unopposed stipulation and proposed order that would (1) appoint the plaintiffs in the Gabelli Action – the “Gabelli Entities” – the lead plaintiffs; (2) would appoint Entwistle & Cappucci as lead counsel for the plaintiff class; (3) consolidate the Gabelli Action, the Husson Action, and the Froehlich Action; (4) set a date by which lead plaintiff would file a consolidated amended complaint by February 25, 2021; and (5) set a date by which defendants shall respond to a consolidated amended complaint of April 26, 2021. On January 21, 2021, the district court issued an order consolidating the three actions as In re Garrett Motion Inc. Securities Litigation, Case Number 20 Civ. 7992 (JPC), and appointing the Gabelli entities as the lead plaintiffs. The Company’s insurer, AIG has accepted the defense, subject the customary reservation of rights. The Bankruptcy Court has set a bar date of March 1, 2021 for, among others, current and former shareholders to file securities-related claims against the Company. We are not yet able to assess the likelihood that any such claims will be allowed. To the extent allowed, each holder of such claims shall be entitled to receive, (x) its pro rata share of the aggregate cash payments received or recoverable from any insurance policies of the Company on account of any such allowed claims and (y) solely to the extent that such payments are less than the amount of its allowed claim, such treatment that is consistent with section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code and otherwise acceptable to the Debtors and the parties to the PSA in accordance with the PSA. Make-Whole Litigation On November 13, 2020, certain of the Debtors (the “Plaintiffs”) filed a complaint in the Bankruptcy Court against the indenture trustee (the “Indenture Trustee”) of the 5.125% senior notes due 2026 (the “Senior Notes”) seeking declaratory judgment on two claims for relief that the Debtors do not owe, and the holders of the Senior Notes (the “Noteholders”) are not entitled to, any make-whole premium under the Indenture (the “Make-Whole” and such litigation, the “Make-Whole Litigation”). Certain Noteholders have contended in these Chapter 11 Cases that the Noteholders are entitled to payment of the Make-Whole under the terms of the Indenture, which provide for the payment of the Make-Whole if the Debtors exercise their right to redeem the Senior Notes prior to maturity, as a result of the Debtors’ commencement of their Chapter 11 Cases. The Plaintiffs believe that the Noteholders are not entitled to any Make-Whole because the Debtors have not exercised their right of redemption as contemplated by the Indenture and, in the alternative, the Make-Whole should be disallowed as unmatured interest pursuant to Section 502(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code. On January 8, 2021, the Indenture Trustee filed an answer to the Debtors’ complaint. Pursuant to the Plan, the Make Whole is an allowed claim in the amount of $15 million. As the Plan has not been approved by the Bankruptcy Court, the Make Whole was not recorded as of December 31, 2020. Pursuant to the PSA, the Debtors have agreed to suspend all litigation activities related to and to stay the Make-Whole Litigation through Emergence and to dismiss with prejudice such proceedings upon Emergence. Other Matters We are subject to other lawsuits, investigations and disputes arising out of the conduct of our business, including matters relating to commercial transactions, government contracts, product liability, prior acquisitions and divestitures, employee benefit plans, intellectual property and environmental, health and safety matters. We recognize a liability for 122 any contingency that is probable of occurrence and reasonably estimable. We continually assess the likelihood of adverse judgments of outcomes in these matters, as well as potential ranges of possible losses (taking into consideration any insurance recoveries), based on a careful analysis of each matter with the assistance of outside legal counsel and, if applicable, other experts. In September 2020, the Brazilian tax authorities issued an infraction notice against Garrett Motion Industria Automotiva Brasil Ltda, challenging the use of certain tax credits between January 2017 and February 2020. The infraction notice results in a loss contingency that may or may not ultimately be incurred by the Company. The estimated total amount of the contingency as of December 31, 2020 was $29 million including penalties and interest. The Company appealed the infraction notice on October 23, 2020. The Company believes, based on management’s assessment and the advice of external legal counsel, that it has meritorious arguments in connection with the infraction notice and any liability for the infraction notice is currently not probable. Accordingly, no accrual is required at this time. Warranties and Guarantees In the normal course of business, we issue product warranties and product performance guarantees. We accrue for the estimated cost of product warranties and performance guarantees based on contract terms and historical experience at the time of sale to the customer. Adjustments to initial obligations for warranties and guarantees are made as changes to the obligations become reasonably estimable. Product warranties and product performance guarantees are included in Accrued liabilities. As noted in Note 2, Reorganization, the Debtors have been granted certain First Day Orders that allow the Company to continue to operate as a debtor-in-possession and continue to perform on these warranty and guarantee obligations in the ordinary course of business. The following table summarizes information concerning our recorded obligations for product warranties and product performance guarantees.

Defined Benefit Pension Plans We sponsor several funded U.S. and non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans. Pension benefits for many of our U.S. employees are provided through a non-contributory, qualified defined benefit plan. All non-union hourly and salaried employees that joined the Business or Garrett for the first time after December 31, 2012, are not eligible to participate in our U.S. defined benefit pension plans. We also sponsor defined benefit pension plans which cover non-U.S. employees who are not U.S. citizens, in Switzerland and Ireland. Other pension plans outside of the U.S. are not material to the Company either individually or in the aggregate. For periods prior to the Spin-Off, we only accounted for our pension plan in Ireland as a defined benefit pension plan. Our other pension plans were accounted for as multiemployer plans. On October 1, 2018, in connection with the Spin-Off, we performed an interim remeasurement of our defined benefit pension plan in Ireland to update the discount rate as of the date immediately prior to the Spin-Off. 123 The following tables summarize the balance sheet impact, including the benefit obligations, assets and funded status associated with our significant pension plans. Change in benefit obligation: Benefit obligation at beginning of the year Service cost Interest cost Plan amendments Actuarial (gains) losses(1) Benefits paid Settlements and curtailments(2) Foreign currency translation Transfers Other Benefit obligation at end of the year Change in plan assets: Fair value of plan assets at beginning of the year Actual return on plan assets Employer contributions Benefits paid Settlements and curtailments(2) Foreign currency translation Transfers Other Fair value of plan assets at end of year Funded status of plans Amounts recognized in Consolidated Balance Sheet consist of: Accrued pension liabilities - noncurrent(3) Liabilities subject to compromise(4) Net amount recognized U.S. Plans 2020 $ Pension Benefits U.S. Plans 2019 Non-U.S. Plans 2020 Non-U.S. Plans 2019 206 $ 1 6 — 17 (10) — — — — 220 204 25 — (10) — — — — 219 178 $ 1 7 — 29 (9) — — — — 206 177 36 — (9) — — — — 204 $ (1) $ (2) $ — (1) (1) $ (2) — (2) $ $ 226 $ 9 2 (10) 18 (3) (10) 22 2 3 259 150 8 7 (3) (10) 15 2 3 172 (87) $ — (87) (87) $ 172 6 2 1 37 (6) — — 10 4 226 123 14 6 (6) — — 10 3 150 (76) (76) — (76) (1) (2) (3) (4) The actuarial loss on the U.S. plans during 2020 was $17 million, driven by lower discount rates. For the non-US plans, the 2020 actuarial loss amounted to $18 million. The decrease of discount rates led to an assumption loss of $19 million in Ireland and $4 million in Switzerland. The increased salary assumption in Ireland caused an additional loss of about $1 million. This financial loss was partially offset by the $6 million experience gain on the projected benefit obligation in Switzerland, mainly attributable to the larger than expected asset outflow related to employees leaving Garrett and taking along their pension fund account balances. In Switzerland the total lump sum benefit payments of $10 million were greater than the service cost and interest cost for year ended December 31, 2020, therefore settlement accounting was applied. Following the settlement accounting, part of the previously unrecognized loss, approximately $1 million was recognized as pension settlement expense.

Actuarial assumptions used to determine benefit obligations as of December 31: Discount rate Expected annual rate of compensation increase Interest credited to accounts (2) Actuarial assumptions used to determine net periodic benefit (income) cost for years ended December 31: Discount rate—benefit obligation Discount rate—service cost Discount rate—interest cost Expected rate of return on plan assets Expected annual rate of compensation increase U.S. Plans Non-U.S. Plans Pension Benefits 2020 2019 2020 2019 2018(1) 2.65% 3.30% 0.46% 0.79% 1.50% 3.57% — 3.74% — 1.82% 1.50% 1.77% 1.50% 1.77% 1.50% 3.30% 4.47% 4.06% 5.49% 4.44% 4.47% 4.06% 5.80% 0.79% 1.20% 1.74% 3.79% 1.65% 1.20% 1.74% 3.34% 1.50% 1.50% 1.50% 3.77% 3.74% 3.74% 1.77% 1.77% 1.77% (1) (2) For the periods prior to the Spin-Off, only the pension plan in Ireland is reflected as a non-U.S. defined benefit pension plan as all other pension plans were accounted for as multiemployer plans. Following the Spin-Off, the defined benefit pension plan in Switzerland is also reflected. Only applicable to the defined benefit pension plan in Switzerland. The discount rate for our significant pension plans reflects the current rate at which the associated liabilities could be settled at the measurement date of December 31. To determine the discount rates, we use a modeling process that involves matching the expected cash outflows of our benefit plans to a yield curve constructed from a portfolio of high quality, fixed-income debt instruments. We use the single weighted-average yield of this hypothetical portfolio as a discount rate benchmark. For both our U.S. and non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans, we estimate the service and interest cost components of net period benefit (income) cost by utilizing a full yield curve approach in the estimation of these cost components by applying the specific spot rates along the yield curve used in the determination of the pension benefit obligation to their underlying projected cash flows. This approach provides a more precise measurement of service and interest costs by improving the correlation between projected cash flows and their corresponding spot rates. For non-U.S. benefit plans, actuarial assumptions reflect economic and market factors relevant to each country. The following amounts relate to our significant pension plans with accumulated benefit obligations exceeding the fair value of plan assets. Projected benefit obligation Accumulated benefit obligation Fair value of plan assets December 31, U.S. Plans Non-U.S. Plans 2020 2019 2020 2019 $ — $ — — — $ — — 259 $ 239 172 226 212 150 Our asset investment strategy for our U.S. pension plan focuses on maintaining a diversified portfolio using various asset classes in order to achieve market exposure and diversification on an interim basis as we develop our long-term investment objectives on a risk adjusted basis. Once finalized, we will implement our long-term strategy. Our interim target allocations are as follows: 35% equity securities, 50% fixed income securities and cash, 10% real estate investments, and 5% high yield bonds. Equity securities include mutual funds that invest in companies located both 126 inside and outside the United States. Fixed income securities include exposure to medium and high quality investment grade corporate bonds, pooled consumer loans and U.S. government bonds with an average maturity of 5 - 25 years. The real estate fund invests in real estate investment trusts – companies that purchase office buildings, hotels and other real estate property. The high yield bond fund invests in a diversified portfolio of intermediate term below investment-grade debt securities. Our assets are reviewed on a daily basis to ensure that we are within the targeted asset allocation ranges and, if necessary, asset balances are adjusted back within target allocations. Our non-U.S. pension assets are typically managed by decentralized fiduciary committees. Our non-U.S. investment policies are different for each country as local regulations, funding requirements, and financial and tax considerations are part of the funding and investment allocation process in each country. The fair values of both our U.S. and non-U.S. pension plans assets by asset category are as follows: Equity funds Short-term investments Corporate bond funds Real estate funds Total assets at fair value Equity funds Short-term investments Corporate bond funds Real estate funds Total assets at fair value Cash and cash equivalents Equity funds Government bond funds Corporate bond funds Real estate funds Other Total assets at fair value Cash and cash equivalents Equity funds Government bond funds Corporate bond funds Real estate funds Other Total assets at fair value U.S. Plans December 31, 2020 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 79 $ 2 117 21 219 $ — $ — — — — $ 79 $ 2 117 21 219 $ U.S. Plans December 31, 2019 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 74 $ 2 106 22 204 $ — $ — — — — $ 74 $ 2 106 22 204 $ Non-U.S. Plans December 31, 2020 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 5 $ 76 35 23 20 13 172 $ 5 $ — — — — — 5 $ — $ 76 35 23 20 13 167 $ Non-U.S. Plans December 31, 2019 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 2 $ 68 30 21 18 11 150 $ 2 $ — — — — — 2 $ — $ 68 30 21 18 11 148 $ — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ Equity funds, corporate bond funds, government bond funds, real estate funds and short-term investments are valued either by bids provided by brokers or dealers or quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics.

Our general funding policy for qualified defined benefit pension plans is to contribute amounts at least sufficient to satisfy regulatory funding standards. We are not required to make any contributions to our U.S. pension plan in 2020. In 2020, contributions of $7 million were made to our non-U.S. pension plans to satisfy regulatory funding requirements. In 2021, we expect to make contributions of cash and/or marketable securities of approximately $7 million to our non-U.S. pension plans to satisfy regulatory funding standards. Contributions for both our U.S. and non-U.S. pension plans do not reflect benefits paid directly from Company assets. Benefit payments, including amounts to be paid from Company assets, and reflecting expected future service, as appropriate, are expected to be paid as follows: 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025 2026-2030 $ U.S. Plans Non-U.S. Plans 10 $ 11 11 11 11 57 3 4 4 4 4 24 Note 25. China Variable Interest Entity On September 20, 2018 in preparation of the Spin-Off, the Company entered into an agreement by and between Honeywell and Garrett (the “China Purchase Agreement”) in which Honeywell agreed to sell to Garrett 100% of the equity interests of Honeywell Transportation Investment (China) Co., Ltd. (“Garrett China”) consisting of our primary operations in China, in exchange for upfront consideration of 8,444,077 shares of our common stock. No further consideration from Garrett was due. The China Purchase Agreement was amended to extend the date of the transfer of the equity interests in Garrett China from September 20, 2019 to June 30, 2020. Prior to the transfer of the equity interests, Garrett China was considered a variable interest entity for which Garrett is the primary beneficiary because the China Purchase Agreement provided Garrett control to direct the management and operation of Garrett China as well as all economic benefits and losses. The intent of the agreement was to place Garrett in the same position as if it already owned 100% of the equity interests of Garrett China. As the agreement was effective prior to the Spin-Off date while the Company and Garrett China were under common control of Honeywell, the assets and liabilities of Garrett China were recognized at their carrying amounts. On June 3, 2020 Honeywell transferred 100% of the equity interests of Garrett China in accordance with the China Purchase Agreement. Following the transfer, Garrett continues to consolidate Garrett China. However, Garrett China is no longer considered to be a variable interest entity as Garrett now owns 100% of the equity interests. There was no change in the basis of the net assets of Garrett China as the transaction did not result in a change of control under U.S. GAAP. Note 26.

Related Party Transactions with Honeywell Subsequent to Spin-Off Following the Spin-Off, Honeywell is no longer considered a related party. We have Obligations payable to Honeywell related to the Indemnification and Reimbursement Agreement and Tax Matters Agreement. See Note 23 Commitments and Contingencies for further details. 129 Prior to Spin-Off The Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements for periods prior to the Spin-Off have been prepared on a stand-alone basis and are derived from the consolidated financial statements and accounting records of Honeywell. Prior to the Spin-Off, Honeywell provided certain services, such as legal, accounting, information technology, human resources and other infrastructure support, on behalf of the Business. The cost of these services has been allocated to the Business on the basis of the proportion of revenues. We consider the allocations to be a reasonable reflection of the benefits received by the Business. During the year ended December 31, 2018, Garrett was allocated $87 million of general corporate expenses incurred by Honeywell, and such amounts are included within Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated and Combined Statements of Operations. As certain expenses reflected in the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements include allocations of corporate expenses from Honeywell, these statements could differ from those that would have been prepared had Garrett operated on a stand-alone basis. The Company received interest income for related party notes receivables of $1 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. Additionally, the Company incurred interest expense for related party notes payable of $1 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. Note 28. Unaudited Quarterly Financial Information The following tables show selected unaudited quarterly results of operations for 2020 and 2019.

Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure None. Item 9A. Controls and Procedures Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs. Based on management's evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of December 31, 2020. Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria set forth in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013)” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2020, our internal control over financial reporting was effective. Deloitte SA, our independent registered public accounting firm, has issued an attestation report on our internal control over financial reporting, which is included in Item 8 “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended December 31, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Executive Compensation EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION Compensation Discussion and Analysis Our Compensation Discussion and Analysis describes the principles underlying the material components of the executive compensation programs for our Named Executive Officers who are named in the “Summary Compensation Table” below and the factors relevant to an analysis of the compensatory policies and decisions. In 2020, our Named Executive Officers were: • • • • • • Olivier Rabiller, President and Chief Executive Officer; Sean Deason, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer; Peter Bracke, Chief Transformation Officer and former Vice President and Interim Chief Financial Officer; Craig Balis, Senior Vice President and Chief Technology Officer; Jérôme Maironi, Senior Vice President, General Counsel, and Corporate Secretary; and Thierry Mabru, Senior Vice President, Integrated Supply Chain. In June 2020, the Company appointed Sean Deason as Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company. In connection with Mr. Deason’s appointment, Mr. Bracke stepped down as our Vice President and Interim Chief Financial Officer and was appointed as our Chief Transformation Officer, effective as of the date of Mr. Deason’s appointment. 137 Executive Summary 2020 Program Changes In considering the design of our 2020 executive compensation program, the Compensation Committee undertook a thorough evaluation of the metrics that align with the Company’s long-term strategy for inclusion in our short-term incentive plan (“ICP”) and Long-Term Incentive Plan. The evaluation included analysis of different performance metrics and their alignment with our value proposition to shareholders, a review of the performance metrics used by our peer group, and an assessment of independent performance metrics versus modifier structures as well as absolute goals versus relative goals. The work also considered the input received during a series of shareholder outreach meetings held in 2019. Effective for fiscal year 2020, we modified our 2020 executive compensation program to include a higher percentage of Performance Stock Units (“PSUs”) granted under our 2020-2022 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“LTI Plan”), as well as included performance goals linked to relative and absolute Total Shareholder Return in our PSU awards granted to our Named Executive Officers pursuant to the LTI Plan, as described further under “Equity Awards – 2020-2022 Long Term Incentive Plan” below, both of which were modifications from our 2019 executive compensation program. However, as discussed further below, the Compensation Committee subsequently determined to modify the fiscal year 2020 compensation program such that our executive officers, including our Named Executive Officers, waived their participation in the 2020 ICP and forfeited their 2020 awards granted under our LTI Plan. In light of the unprecedented and ongoing market uncertainties related to the global COVID-19 pandemic, in April 2020, the Compensation Committee approved temporary reductions in the annual base salaries of all executive officers, including certain of our Named Executive Officers. Effective April 1, 2020, the annual base salaries for Messrs. Rabiller, Bracke, Balis, Maironi and Mabru were reduced by 20%, which reduction remained in effect through the second quarter of 2020. Although annual base salaries were restored after the second quarter reduction, for September 2020, the Compensation Committee approved a 10% reduction (of the original 2020 annual base salaries) for all of our Named Executive Officers. Additionally, for these same reasons, and in connection with the Board’s evaluation of strategic alternatives for the Company, in June 2020, the Compensation Committee determined to conduct a review of the 2020 compensation program to ensure that the program appropriately aligns with the Company’s current goals and supports the stability and motivation of the Company’s workforce in light of the anticipated Restructuring (as defined below). Based on this review, the Compensation Committee decided it was in the Company’s best interests to redesign the Company’s 2020 compensation program to more effectively retain and motivate key employees to successfully navigate through the challenging business environment. Under the redesigned program, the Compensation Committee approved one-time cash continuity awards to the Named Executive Officers (other than Mr. Deason) and other key individuals who participated in the 2020 ICP and LTI Plan. As a condition to the receipt of these awards, the recipients waived their participation in the 2020 ICP and forfeited the equity awards granted in February 2020 under the LTI Plan, effective July 1, 2020 and as further described under “Elements of Executive Compensation”. As described further below, Mr. Deason joined our Company in June 2020 during the Company’s Restructuring and therefore was not eligible to participate in the 2020 ICP. Additionally, Mr. Deason did not receive any grants under the LTI Plan in 2020. Since Mr. Deason was not a participant under our 2020 ICP nor the LTI Plan, he did not receive a continuity award. Compensation Program Highlights Our overall compensation program is structured to attract, motivate and retain highly qualified executive officers by paying them competitively, consistent with our success and their contribution to that success. Our ability to excel depends on the skill, creativity, integrity and teamwork of our employees. We believe compensation should be structured to reward short-term and long-term business results and exceptional performance, and most importantly, maximize stockholder value. 138 The following table highlights key features of our executive compensation program. We believe these practices promote good governance and serve the interests of our stockholders. What We Do ✓ Executive and non-employee director stock ownership requirements What We Don’t Do X No single-trigger cash severance or benefits in connection with a change in control ✓ Compensation programs include an oversight process to identify risk X No guaranteed equity compensation or salary increases for executive ✓ Independent Compensation Committee oversees and evaluates X No excise tax gross-up provisions officers executive compensation programs against competitive practices, regulatory developments and corporate government trends ✓ Independent Compensation Committee advisor ✓ Clawback policy for executive officers X No repricing of stock option awards and our plans expressly forbid exchanging underwater options for cash without stockholder approval X No hedging or pledging of our equity securities X No dividends or dividend equivalents paid on unearned performance stock units 2020 Say-on-Pay Vote At our 2020 annual meeting, approximately 97% of the votes cast by our shareholders approved, on an advisory basis, the compensation of our Named Executive Officers, which we believe affirms our shareholders’ support of our executive compensation program. Determination of Process Our Compensation Committee oversees and administers our executive compensation program, with input from our management team and an independent compensation consultant. Process and Timeline for Designing and Delivering Compensation The Compensation Committee is responsible for establishing and administering programs and procedures for annual and long-term executive compensation and assessing organizational structure and the development of our executives. The Compensation Committee follows a robust process to review and approve all compensation decisions regarding the Named Executive Officers. These decisions are informed by peer group and market data and supported by the review and advice of an independent compensation consultant. Role of Management To aid the Compensation Committee in making its determination, our Chief Executive Officer provides recommendations annually to the Compensation Committee regarding the compensation of all other executive officers (i.e., other than himself) based on the overall corporate achievements during the period being assessed and his knowledge of the individual contributions to our success by each of the other Named Executive Officers. Our Named Executive Officers do not play a role in their own compensation determinations other than discussing their performance with our Chief Executive Officer, or in the case of the Chief Executive Officer, with the Compensation Committee and Chairperson of the Board. Our senior management also supports the Compensation Committee by developing recommendations for specific award designs, including metric assessment, performance goal-setting, and program administration. While members of our senior management may attend the meetings of the Compensation Committee, they do not attend executive sessions and do not attend the portions of meetings during which their own compensation is discussed. 139 Role of Independent Compensation Consultant Our Compensation Committee has retained Semler Brossy as its independent compensation consultant. Semler Brossy assists the Compensation Committee in its evaluation of the compensation provided to our Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers and the design of the compensation programs for Named Executive Officers. Semler Brossy generally attends Compensation Committee meetings and provides information, research and analysis pertaining to executive compensation and governance as requested by the Compensation Committee. Other than advising the Compensation Committee and senior management, as described above, Semler Brossy did not provide any services to the Company in 2020. Additionally, in June 2020, the Compensation Committee retained Willis Towers Watson (WTW), an independent compensation consultant, to advise on common market practices regarding compensation programs during the Company’s financial restructuring to be implemented pursuant to a plan of reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code (the “Restructuring”). In 2020, WTW assisted the Compensation Committee by making recommendations with respect to the continuity awards for key employees, including our Named Executive Officers. Other than advising the Compensation Committee, WTW did not provide any services to the Company in 2020. For additional information on the Restructuring, see Note 2, Restructuring and Chapter 11 Proceedings of the Notes to the Consolidated Interim Financial Statements in our Annual Report. The Compensation Committee has considered the independence of Semler Brossy and WTW, consistent with the requirements of the NYSE, and has determined that both Semler Brossy and WTW are independent. Further, pursuant to SEC rules, the Compensation Committee conducted a conflicts of interest assessment and determined that there is no conflict of interest resulting from retaining Semler Brossy or WTW. The Compensation Committee intends to reassess the independence of its advisors at least annually. Executive Compensation Peer Group Since 2019, Semler Brossy has worked with the Compensation Committee and management to develop a peer group of companies to be used for market comparison purposes in terms of executive pay levels and practices. For 2020, Semler Brossy assessed our peer group against the following characteristics, which are consistent with criteria historically reviewed: • • • • • • • Industry; Competitor for Talent; Global Presence; Headquarter Location; Product Focus and Business Model; Evolving Technology; and Key Size Measures. 140 The Compensation Committee was careful to construct a group based on the considerations above that, on the whole, captures Garrett’s global presence and talent market as well as its unique business dynamics. As a U.S.-listed but European-headquartered company that attracts talent globally, we decided to include both U.S. and European companies. For 2020, our peer group consisted of the following companies: Company US-Listed Allison Transmission Holdings, Inc. American Axle & Manufacturing Holdings, Inc. Autoliv BorgWarner Inc. Cooper-Standard Holdings Inc. Dana Incorporated Delphi Technologies PLC Gentex Meritor, Inc.

Based on Semler Brossy’s assessment, we revised our 2020 peer group to remove three companies (i.e., Tenneco Inc., Tower International, Inc. and WABCO Holdings Inc.) since each was acquired in separate transactions during 2019 and no longer fits the selection criteria. The Compensation Committee intends to continually evaluate the peer group to ensure that it remains an appropriate market reference going forward and continues to suit our business needs. 141 In addition to reviewing information regarding the peer group, our Compensation Committee also leverages broader market survey and data sources to guide the establishment of our executive compensation programs. Elements of Executive Compensation The following is a discussion of the primary elements of 2020 compensation for each of our Named Executive Officers as determined by our Compensation Committee. All amounts are shown in USD. Certain amounts payable to one or more of our Named Executive Officers represent compensation paid in Swiss Francs (including salary and bonuses) and were converted to USD using the average exchange rate for the year-ended December 31, 2020 under GAAP of 1 USD to 0.94023 CHF, unless otherwise noted. Base Salary Base salaries are intended to attract and compensate high-performing and experienced leaders and are determined based on performance, scope of responsibility, and years of experience with reference made to relevant competitive market data (but not targeted to a specific competitive position). In light of the uncertainties related to the global COVID-19 pandemic, in April 2020, the Compensation Committee approved temporary reductions in the annual base salaries of all executive officers, including certain of our Named Executive Officers. Effective April 1, 2020, the annual base salaries for Messrs. Rabiller, Bracke, Balis, Maironi and Mabru were reduced by 20%, which remained in effect through the second quarter of 2020. Effective for the month of September 2020, the Compensation Committee approved another 10% annual base salary reduction for all of our Named Executive Officers. In addition, in June 2020, the Company appointed Mr. Deason as Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company. Pursuant to Mr. Deason’s employment agreement, Mr. Deason’s annual base salary is $606,235. In connection with Mr. Deason’s appointment, Mr. Bracke stepped down as our Vice President and Interim Chief Financial Officer and was appointed as our Chief Transformation Officer, effective as of the date of Mr. Deason’s appointment. In connection with these changes, Mr. Bracke and Garrett Motion Sàrl, one of our subsidiaries, entered into an amendment to Mr. Bracke’s employment agreement, pursuant to which his annual base salary was decreased from $473,919 to $425,428, effective July 1, 2020. The following table sets forth the base salaries for each of our Named Executive Officers for 2020. The amounts in the table show the salaries on a non-reduced basis. As described above, the base salaries were reduced by 20% for the second quarter of 2020 and reduced by 10% for the month of September 2020. The actual base salaries paid to each of our Named Executive Officers for 2020, taking into account reductions, are disclosed in the Summary Compensation Table below. Named Executive Officer Olivier Rabiller Sean Deason Peter Bracke Craig Balis Jérôme Maironi Thierry Mabru 2020 Annual Base Salary ($) 957,213 606,235 (1) 425,428 (2) 425,428 478,606 430,746 (1) (2) Mr. Deason joined our Company in June 2020. Effective July 1, 2020, Mr. Bracke’s annual base salary was decreased from $473,919 to $425,428. 142 Continuity Awards As discussed above in the “Executive Summary—2020 Program Changes,” in June 2020, in response to the unprecedented and ongoing market uncertainty resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and in connection with the Board’s evaluation of strategic alternatives for the Company, the Compensation Committee determined to redesign the Company’s 2020 compensation program to ensure effective retention and motivation of the Company’s key employees. Under the revised program, the Compensation Committee approved one-time cash continuity awards in the following amounts to ensure the retention of the key individuals who participated in the 2020 ICP and LTI Plan, including the Named Executive Officers (other than Mr. Deason): Named Executive Officer Olivier Rabiller Sean Deason Peter Bracke Craig Balis Jérôme Maironi Thierry Mabru Continuity Award Value ($) 1,914,425 — 236,960 553,056 622,188 559,969 As a condition to the receipt of the continuity awards, the key individuals who participated in the 2020 ICP and LTI Plan, including certain of our Named Executive Officers, waived their participation in the 2020 ICP and forfeited the equity awards granted in February 2020 under the LTI Plan, each effective July 1, 2020 and as further described below. The continuity awards are subject to repayment if prior to June 25, 2021, the executive resigns without “good reason”, or the Company terminates the executive’s employment for “cause” (each, as defined in the continuity award agreement). As described further below, Mr. Deason joined our Company in June 2020 during the Company’s Restructuring and therefore was not eligible to participate in the 2020 ICP. Additionally, Mr. Deason did not receive any grants under the LTI Plan. Since Mr. Deason was not a participant under our 2020 ICP or LTI Plan, he did not receive a continuity award. Short-Term Incentive Compensation Plan (“ICP”) Awards ICP awards are intended to motivate and reward executives to achieve annual corporate, strategic business group and functional goals in key areas of financial and operational performance. Each Named Executive Officer’s target ICP opportunity is based upon a percentage of base salary. In February 2020, the Compensation Committee, after taking into consideration industry and market data, mix of target compensation for the Named Executive Officers, and other elements of their compensation, determined to increase the 2020 ICP target annual incentive percentages for Mr. Balis to 60% from 55%, Mr. Maironi to 65% from 60% and Mr. Mabru to 60% from 55%. The ICP target annual incentive percentage for Mr. Rabiller remained unchanged for 2020. Additionally, effective July 1, 2020, Mr. Bracke’s ICP target annual incentive percentage was decreased from 60% to 50% in connection with stepping down as Interim Chief Financial Officer and his appointment as our Chief Transformation Officer. 143 The 2020 target ICP opportunity for each Named Executive Officer, as a percentage of base salary, are set forth below: Named Executive Officer Olivier Rabiller Sean Deason Peter Bracke Craig Balis Jérôme Maironi Thierry Mabru 2020 Target ICP Opportunity (% of Base Salary) 125% ___` (1) 50% (2) 60% 65% 60% (1) (2) Mr. Deason joined our Company in June 2020 during the Company’s Restructuring and therefore was not eligible to participate in the 2020 ICP. Pursuant to Mr. Deason’s employment agreement, Mr. Deason’s ICP target for future ICP’s the Company may implement is 80% of his annual base salary. Effective July 1, 2020, Mr. Bracke’s ICP target annual incentive percentage was decreased from 60% to 50% in connection with stepping down as Interim Chief Financial Officer and his appointment as our Chief Transformation Officer. Corporate Performance For 2020, the ICP was designed so that payout was based in part on the achievement of objective Company performance criteria (the “Company Performance Portion”), which represented 75% of the award opportunity, and in part on the achievement of individual performance objectives (the “Individual Performance Portion”), which represented the remaining 25% of the award opportunity. In addition, the 2020 ICP was designed so that Award opportunities under the Company Performance Portion were based on the achievement of two financial performance criteria: Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Adjusted Free Cash Flow Conversion (each, as defined below), weighted 40% and 60%, respectively. In 2019, we utilized a third performance metric, Organic Revenue Growth, which we removed from our 2020 ICP because our Compensation Committee wanted to incentivize focusing in the near-term on generating higher margins than competitors and maximizing cash flow to deleverage and reinvest back into the Company. 144 Performance goals for each metric were established at threshold, target and maximum levels with intermediate inflections between threshold and target as well as between target and maximum. Payout for achievement at or above maximum for each metric was capped at 200% of target, and achievement below threshold would have resulted in no payout. Straight-line interpolation would have been used to calculate the 2020 ICP payout associated with actual results falling between goals. The goals were set at levels that were expected to be challenging but achievable at the outset of the year. The following table sets forth the applicable goals for each measure: Performance Criteria Weighting Adjusted EBITDA Margin(1) Adjusted Free Cash Flow Conversion(2) 40% 60% Threshold (25%) 15% 85% (50%) 15.4% 90% 75% 15.7% 95% Target (100%) 16.0% 100% 125% 16.4% 105% 150% 16.7% 110% Maximum (200%) 17.5% 120% (1) (2) Adjusted EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA over net sales. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as the earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted for indemnification obligations to Honeywell, stock compensation expense, restructuring costs and foreign exchange (gain) loss on debt, net of related hedging (gain) or loss. Adjusted Free Cash Flow is defined as cash from operations less expenditures for property plant and equipment excluding indemnity and mandatory transition tax related payments to Honeywell and potential M&A related cash outflows. Adjusted Free Cash Flow Conversion is defined as Adjusted Free Cash Flow over Adjusted Net Income. Adjusted Net Income is defined as our net income (loss), as adjusted for special tax matters, indemnification obligations to Honeywell, litigation fees and restructuring costs. Individual Performance For 2020, the ICP was designed so that payouts under the Individual Performance Portion were based on the Compensation Committee’s assessment of each executive’s individual performance against their objectives established at the beginning of the fiscal year specifically related to the categories of differentiated technology, global presence and capabilities (operational excellence), customer experience with each such goal comprising 15% of the Individual Performance Portion, as well as pre-established strategic goals which comprised 10% of the Individual Performance Portion. Individual objectives for the Named Executive Officers are typically developed during the Company’s annual strategic planning to ensure rigor and business alignment, and the year-end performance assessment is performed using a formal process that matches actual performance and behaviors against established expectations. Each of the Named Executive Officers, other than Mr. Deason, had individualized performance goals for 2020 as follows: • • • Mr. Rabiller was responsible for achieving certain corporate, financial, strategic and operational objectives, including enhancing the Company’s technologies and capabilities portfolio; expanding Garrett’s global presence by developing customer experience initiatives; strengthening succession plans and driving additional training and coaching to enhance leadership capabilities and support Garrett’s continued transformation; and was also responsible to establish the strategic alternatives roadmap for the future of Garrett and implement the right approach for the financial long term objectives of the Company. While Mr. Bracke served as our Vice President and Interim Chief Financial Officer through June 2020, he was responsible for achieving certain financial objectives across the organization, including enhancing the Company’s financial performance, financial operations and investor communications; enhancing the balance sheet capability to provide for long-term growth and flexibility; and leading investor communications for enhanced shareholder engagement. In connection with Mr. Deason’s appointment as Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company in June 2020, Mr. Deason assumed Mr. Bracke’s responsibilities. Mr. Balis’ goals included certain strategic and operational objectives, including the successful development of a breakthrough technologies portfolio; launching new technologies successfully with optimal productivity to the market; and rebalancing internal resources to support current and upcoming technologies. 145 • • Mr. Maironi’s goals consisted of continuing to implement integrity and compliance processes for the Company overseeing and advising on the Company’s corporate governance and risk management strategies; reviewing the Honeywell & Garrett Indemnity Agreement to advise and coordinate with the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer on potential actions regarding the ongoing dispute with Honeywell; and enhancing governance processes and organization for a stand-alone public company. Mr. Mabru’s goals included implementing the Company’s operational objectives regarding supply chain productivity and efficiency; reviewing the Company’s suppliers portfolio to ensure functional excellence; enhancing the Company’s strategy with respect to materials and supplies savings; optimizing the Company’s global real estate footprint; and deploying Garrett’s Excellence Model (GEM) to enhance productivity and efficiency at all levels. As described above, as a condition to receipt of the continuity awards, effective July 1, 2020, the Named Executive Officers (other than Mr. Deason who was not a participant in the 2020 ICP) waived their participation in the 2020 ICP, and subsequently our Named Executive Officers did not receive a payout under the Company Performance Portion or the Individual Performance Portion of the 2020 ICP. Retention and Sign on Bonuses In May 2020, in connection with Mr. Bracke stepping down as Interim Chief Financial Officer, the Compensation Committee approved the payment of a one-time retention bonus in the amount of $473,919 to Mr. Bracke. The retention bonus is subject to repayment in the event that Mr. Bracke resigns without “good reason”, or the Company terminates his employment for “cause” (each, as defined in the 2018 Stock Incentive Plan, or the “2018 Plan”), prior to March 31, 2021. In addition, in June 2020, in conjunction with the commencement of his employment, Mr. Deason received a one-time sign-on bonus of $1,063,570 as part of his employment agreement. The sign-on bonus will be repaid by Mr. Deason if prior to the one-year anniversary of his start date, Mr. Deason’s employment is terminated for any reason. Mr. Deason also received a one-time relocation bonus equal to $159,535, which is subject to repayment if Mr. Deason terminates employment for any reason or if Garrett Motion Sàrl terminates Mr. Deason’s employment (other than for reason of redundancy) prior to the second anniversary of his start date. Equity Awards The goal of our long-term, equity-based incentive awards is to align the interests of our Named Executive Officers with the interests of our stockholders. Because vesting is based on continued service, our equity-based incentives also encourage the retention of our Named Executive Officers during the award vesting period. 146 2020-2022 Long Term Incentive Plan (“LTI Plan”) Pursuant to the executives’ offer letters or employment agreements, each of Messrs. Rabiller, Deason, Bracke, Balis, Maironi and Mabru is eligible for an annual grant of equity awards with an initial target opportunity of 350%, 170%, 100%, 200%, 189% and 160%, respectively, of the executive’s annual base salary. Under our LTI Plan, the Compensation Committee granted awards, 60% in the form of PSUs and 40% in the form of Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) to our Named Executive Officers (other than Mr. Deason). For the LTI Plan, we increased the weighting of PSUs to 60% (previously 50% under the 2019-2021 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2019-2021 LTI Plan”)) and incorporated two relative metrics (Relative Organic Revenue Growth and relative TSR), as well as incorporated an Absolute TSR modifier for our PSU awards, in each case, in order to further align our Named Executive Officers’ compensation with shareholder outcomes. As a result of this update, we also eliminated the usage of stock options and increased the weighting of RSUs to 40% (previously 25% under the 2019-2021 LTI Plan). The PSUs were eligible to vest based on the achievement of Relative Organic Revenue Growth, Adjusted Free Cash Flow Conversion, and relative TSR, weighted 30%, 30%, and 40%, respectively, over a three-year performance period from January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2022. Achievement at or above maximum for each metric was capped at 200% of target. Additionally, the PSUs were subject to an Absolute TSR modifier. In establishing the goals for the PSUs under the LTI Plan, Management and the Compensation Committee determined to include two relative measures – Relative Organic Revenue Growth, and relative TSR – to emphasize peer outperformance in a competitive landscape. In addition, the introduction of TSR as 40% of the PSUs signifies our commitment to provide superior returns to our shareholders. Adjusted Free Cash Flow Conversion remains an important part of the PSUs to further emphasize deleveraging the Company over the long term. At the time the program was approved, the Compensation Committee believed these metrics were aligned with feedback received from stockholder outreach discussions and were critical for executing the Company’s near- and long-term strategy. 147 Further, for the PSUs under the LTI Plan, we added an Absolute TSR component that would deliver up to an incremental 50% of the target PSUs depending on the stock price at the end of the performance period such that the maximum number of PSUs that may be earned under the LTI Plan was capped at 250% of target. The Company determined that including an Absolute TSR component will serve as a powerful means to incentivize share price appreciation back to and above the Company’s opening price per share of common stock on the date of the Spin-Off, October 1, 2018 (the “Spin-Off Price”). To that end, threshold performance to start earning a portion of the component was set at a 20% premium over the 30-day stock price average ($8.38) preceding the grant date, and the price to earn maximum for this component was established at $20, approximately 14% higher than the Spin-Off Price and 139% higher than the 30-day average price on the date of grant. Payouts would have been linear between the threshold and maximum depending on the resulting stock price. The RSUs were eligible to vest in full on the third anniversary of the grant date, subject to continued employment. We made the following grants of PSUs and RSUs under the LTI Plan to our Named Executive Officers in 2020, prior to the forfeiture of such awards effective July 1, 2020 in connection with the grant of the continuity awards, as described above: Named Executive Officer Olivier Rabiller Sean Deason (1) Peter Bracke Craig Balis Jérôme Maironi Thierry Mabru Aggregate Dollar- Denominated Value ($) 3,542,195 — 400,860 899,611 956,399 728,682 Target PSUs (#) RSUs (#) 256,549 — 29,033 65,156 69,269 52,776 185,324 — 20,973 47,067 50,038 38,124 (1) Mr. Deason joined our Company in June 2020 and therefore was not eligible to receive any grants under the LTI Plan in 2020. As described above, as a condition to the approval of the continuity awards, effective July 1, 2020, the Named Executive Officers (other than Mr. Deason, who had not yet commenced employment and, accordingly, was not granted LTI Plan awards in February 2020) forfeited the PSUs and RSUs granted in February 2020 pursuant to the LTI Plan and such awards were cancelled. 148 2019-2020 Performance Plan (“Replacement Plan”) Under our 2019-2020 Performance Plan (the “Replacement Plan”), we issued PSUs and performance cash units (“PCUs”) to certain of our Named Executive Officers that will vest in full on March 4, 2021, subject to company performance and continued employment through each vesting date, consistent with the vesting schedule that applied to corresponding Honeywell Performance Plan awards previously granted for the 2018-2020 performance period. PCUs are dollar denominated and pay out in cash rather than equity. The PSUs and PCUs awarded under the Replacement Plan were scheduled to vest based on the achievement of Organic Revenue Growth, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Free Cash Flow Conversion goals, weighted 20%, 40% and 40%, respectively, over a two-year performance period from January 1, 2019 through December 31, 2020. Based on the Company’s actual performance with respect to Organic Revenue Growth, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Free Cash Flow Conversion for the period from January 1, 2019 through December 31, 2020, the threshold targets were not met and PSUs and PCUs granted under the Replacement Plan were not earned. Other Company Compensation and Benefit Programs for Fiscal 2020 In addition to the annual and long-term compensation programs described above, we provided the Named Executive Officers with benefits and limited perquisites consistent with those provided to other Company executives, as described below. Severance Benefits Certain of our Named Executive Officers’ employment agreements and offer letters provide that the executive is eligible to receive severance payments upon a qualifying involuntary termination of employment, including in connection with a change in control of our Company (as opposed to solely upon a “single-trigger” change in control). Additionally, we maintain a severance policy under which our Named Executive Officers are eligible to receive severance payments and benefits upon a qualifying termination, including in connection with a change in control. We believe that these protections serve to encourage continued attention and dedication to duties without distraction arising from the possibility of a change in control and provide the business with a smooth transition in the event of such a termination of employment in connection with a transaction. These severance and change in control arrangements are designed to retain certain of our executives in these key positions as we compete for talented executives in the marketplace where such protections are commonly offered. For a detailed description of the severance provisions contained in our Named Executive Officers’ employment agreements and offer letters and our severance policy, see “Summary of Potential Payments and Benefits—Termination Events” below. Garrett Supplemental Savings Plan We maintain the Garrett Supplemental Savings Plan for our executives in the United States. This plan provides our executives with the opportunity to defer pre-tax compensation and incentive compensation that cannot be contributed to our 401(k) savings plan due to IRS limitations. These amounts may be matched by Garrett, and the amount of such matching contributions are at our discretion. Matching contributions, if any, are immediately vested. Deferred compensation balances earn interest through the Fidelity U.S. Bond Index Fund, which is subject to change on a daily basis. This plan is explained in detail in the section entitled “Nonqualified Deferred Compensation—Fiscal Year 2020.” Mr. Balis does not actively contribute to the plan (and we are not actively making any matching contributions to his account); however, his account continues to earn interest under the plan. Mr. Balis elected to receive benefits under this plan in a lump sum, which amount will be paid on the later of six months or in January of the year following his separation from service. Retirement Plan Our Named Executive Officers are eligible to participate in Garrett’s pension plan sponsored in Switzerland and named “Columna Sammelstiftung Client Invest Winterthur”. For a detailed description of Garrett’s Swiss pension plan, see “Pension-Benefits-Fiscal Year 2020” below. 149 Comprehensive Benefits Package We provide a competitive benefits package to all full-time employees, including the Named Executive Officers, which includes life insurance benefits. Other Benefits and Perquisites In 2020, the Named Executive Officers were eligible for benefits under the Company’s car policy (in the form of a company car or cash allowance) as it generally applies to executives in Switzerland, as well as reimbursements associated with legal representation, family, tax, legal and financial planning expenses. In 2020, we also provided Mr. Deason with relocation assistance in connection with his relocation to Switzerland. Additional Compensation Components In the future, we may provide different and/or additional compensation components, benefits and/or perquisites to our Named Executive Officers to ensure that we provide a balanced and comprehensive compensation structure. We believe that it is important to maintain flexibility to adapt our compensation structure to properly attract, motivate and retain the top executive talent for which we compete. All future practices regarding compensation components, benefits and/or perquisites will be subject to periodic review by the Compensation Committee. Other Matters Tax and Accounting Considerations Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code Section 409A of the Code requires that “nonqualified deferred compensation” be deferred and paid under plans or arrangements that satisfy the requirements of the statute with respect to the timing of deferral elections, timing of payments and certain other matters. Failure to satisfy these requirements can expose employees and other service providers to accelerated income tax liabilities, penalty taxes and interest on their vested compensation under such plans. Accordingly, as a general matter, it is our intention to design and administer our compensation and benefits plans and arrangements for all of our employees and other service providers, including our Named Executive Officers, so that they are either exempt from, or satisfy the requirements of, Section 409A of the Code. Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code Section 280G of the Code disallows a tax deduction with respect to excess parachute payments to certain executives of companies that undergo a change in control. In addition, Section 4999 of the Code imposes a 20% penalty on the individual receiving the excess payment. Parachute payments are compensation that is linked to or triggered by a change in control and may include, but are not limited to, bonus payments, severance payments, certain fringe benefits, and payments and acceleration of vesting from long-term incentive plans including stock options and other equity-based compensation. Excess parachute payments are parachute payments that exceed a threshold determined under Section 280G of the Code based on the executive’s prior compensation. In approving the compensation arrangements for our Named Executive Officers in the future, the Compensation Committee will consider all elements of the cost to the Company of providing such compensation, including the potential impact of Section 280G of the Code. However, the Compensation Committee may, in its judgment, authorize compensation arrangements that could give rise to loss of deductibility under Section 280G of the Code and the imposition of excise taxes under Section 4999 of the Code when it believes that such arrangements are appropriate to attract and retain executive talent. Accounting Standards ASC Topic 718 requires us to calculate the grant date “fair value” of our stock-based awards using a variety of assumptions. ASC Topic 718 also requires us to recognize an expense for the fair value of equity-based compensation awards. Grants of restricted stock, RSUs and performance units under our equity incentive award plans will be accounted for under ASC Topic 718. We have adopted ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based 150 Payment Accounting, and elected to account for forfeitures of awards at the time of grant. The Compensation Committee will regularly consider the accounting implications of significant compensation decisions, especially in connection with decisions that relate to our equity incentive award plans and programs. As accounting standards change, we may revise certain programs to appropriately align the accounting expense of our equity awards with our overall executive compensation philosophy and objectives. Responsible Equity Grant Practices Our equity grant practices ensure all grants are made on fixed grant dates and at exercise prices or grant prices equal to the fair market value of our Common Stock on such dates. Equity grants are awarded under our stockholder-approved plans and we do not backdate, reprice or grant equity awards retroactively. Our stockholder-approved equity plans prohibit repricing of awards or exchanges of underwater options for cash or other securities without stockholder approval. Securities Trading Policy Our policy on securities trading prohibits our directors, officers and employees from trading in our securities during certain designated blackout periods and otherwise while they are aware of material non-public information. Prohibition on Hedging and Pledging Our securities trading policy prohibits directors and executive officers, and their Related Parties (as defined in such policy), from purchasing any financial instruments (including prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars and exchange funds) or otherwise engaging in transactions that are designed to or have the effect of hedging or offsetting any decrease in the market value of the Company’s equity securities whether they are (1) granted by the Company as part of the person’s compensation; or (2) otherwise held, directly or indirectly. See “Additional Prohibited Transactions” above for more information about the securities trading policy. Clawback Policy We maintain a Clawback Policy which requires certain cash and equity incentive compensation to be repaid to the Company by its executive officers in the event of the Company being required to prepare an accounting restatement as a result of intentional or grossly negligent misconduct by such executive officer. The Clawback Policy also authorizes the Board, or a designated committee, to recoup bonus or incentive compensation (whether cash- based or equity-based) such executive officer received during the three fiscal years preceding the year the restatement is determined to be required, to the extent such bonus or incentive compensation exceeds what the executive officer would have received based on an applicable restated performance measure or target. Stock Ownership Guidelines and Broad-Based Stock Ownership In addition to the elements of executive officer compensation described above, we have adopted stock ownership guidelines pursuant to which our Named Executive Officers are required to hold a number of shares of our common stock having a market value equal to or greater than a multiple of each executive’s base salary. Until the applicable ownership guideline is achieved, each Named Executive Officer is required to retain at least 50% of the shares acquired from Company equity awards after payment (or withholding) of the exercise price, if applicable, and taxes. Once the applicable ownership guideline is achieved, the aforementioned retention ratio will no longer apply. If a Named Executive Officer’s share ownership subsequently falls back below the applicable ownership guideline and remains below the ownership guideline on a continuous basis for a period of more than 24 months, the Named Executive Officer will be required to comply again with the retention ratio until such time as the Named Executive Officer again achieves the ownership guidelines. 151 Our ownership guidelines are shown below. We believe the use of a retention ratio appropriately balances the need to work toward achieving these requirements with standard liquidity needs our Named Executive Officers may face. As of December 31, 2020, our Named Executive Officers (other than Mr. Deason), each of whom had previously met their share ownership requirements, each fell below their applicable ownership guidelines due to the cancellation of the LTI Plan. Mr. Deason joined the Company in June 2020 and is continuing to grow his equity position in the Company.

Amounts for Mr. Deason represent a one-time sign on bonus in the amount of $1,063,570 and a one-time relocation bonus in the amount of $159,535. Amount for Mr. Bracke represents a one-time retention bonus. The one-time sign on and relocation bonuses for Mr. Deason and one-time retention bonus for Mr. Bracke are each subject to repayment in connection with certain terminations of employment, as described further under “Elements of Executive Compensation—Retention and Sign on Bonuses”. In accordance with SEC rules, the respective values associated with the one-time continuity awards granted to each Named Executive Officer (other than Mr. Deason) in 2020 are included in the column titled “Stock Awards.” See footnote (3), below, for additional information on the continuity awards. Amounts for 2020 represent the grant date fair value of Company RSU awards and PSU awards granted in 2020 to each of our Named Executive Officers, other than Mr. Deason. The amounts shown for the non-TSR portion of the 2020 Company PSU awards are based on the probable outcome of the performance conditions. The grant date fair value of the TSR portion of the 2020 Company PSU awards is based on a Monte Carlo valuation model, which determines potential award-payout results by simulating future stock prices of the Company and peer companies. Monte Carlo modeling assumptions included (i) stock price volatility (based on 2.84-year historical volatility of daily stock prices) of 53.81% for the Company and an average of 39.20% for the peer companies; (ii) stock price correlation coefficient between the Company and the peer companies (based on 2.84-year historical daily stock price changes) of 0.56; (iii) risk-free interest rate of 0.85%; and (iv) starting TSR (for the 30-day period immediately preceding the beginning of the performance period) of -34.7% for the Company. The fair value of 2020 TSR portion of the Company PSU awards was determined to be $9.64, or 139.0% of the grant-date stock price of $6.94. The value for each Company PSU award, granted under the LTI Plan, as of the grant date, assuming the maximum level of performance, is $5,737,274, $649,275, $1,457,102, $1,549,081 and $1,180,244 for Messrs. Rabiller, Bracke, Balis, Maironi and Mabru, respectively. As described further under “Elements of Executive Compensation— Continuity Awards”, as a condition to the receipt of the continuity awards, effective July 1, 2020, the Named Executive Officers (other than Mr. Deason) forfeited the Company RSU awards and 153 PSU awards granted in 2020 and such awards were cancelled. In accordance with applicable SEC rules, the amounts for 2020 also includes the incremental fair value associated with the modified awards, including the subsequent grant of the continuity awards, calculated in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), in the following amounts: $39,898, $5,895, $14,674, $33,504 and $109,504 for Messrs. Rabiller, Bracke, Balis, Maironi and Mabru, respectively. The change in pension value includes the increase in vested benefits in 2020 under our Swiss pension scheme attributable to employer contributions and allocated interest.

The amounts shown for the non-TSR portion of the 2020 Company PSU awards are based on the probable outcome of the performance conditions. The grant date fair value of the TSR portion of the 2020 Company PSU awards is based on a Monte Carlo valuation model, which determines potential award-payout results by simulating future stock prices of the Company and peer companies. Monte Carlo modeling assumptions included (i) stock price volatility (based on 2.84-year historical volatility of daily stock prices) of 53.81% for the Company and an average of 39.20% for the peer companies; (ii) stock price correlation coefficient between the Company and the peer companies (based on 2.84-year historical daily stock price changes) of 0.56; (iii) risk-free interest rate of 0.85%; and (iv) starting TSR (for the 30-day period immediately preceding the beginning of the performance period) of -34.7% for the Company. The fair value of 2020 TSR portion of the Company PSU awards was determined to be $9.64, or 139.0% of the grant-date stock price of $6.94. As described further under “Elements of Executive Compensation—Continuity Awards”, as a condition to receipt of the continuity awards, effective July 1, 2020, the Named Executive Officers (other than Mr. Deason) forfeited the Company RSU awards and PSU awards granted in 2020 and such awards were cancelled. In accordance with applicable SEC rules, the amounts for 2020 also includes the incremental fair value associated with the modified awards, including the subsequent grant of the continuity awards, calculated in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), in the following amounts: $39,898, $5,895, $14,674, $33,504 and $109,504 for Messrs. Rabiller, Bracke, Balis, Maironi and Mabru, respectively. The amounts shown represent the range of potential payouts under the 2020 ICP based on Company performance. For 2020, the awards under the ICP were prorated based on the Named Executive Officer’s target incentive, and annual base salary, before and after any salary increases, as applicable, and the number of days in the year such target incentive and annual base salary was in effect. As described further under “Elements of Executive Compensation—Continuity Awards”, as a condition to receipt of the continuity awards, effective July 1, 2020, the Named Executive Officers (other than Mr. Deason) waived their participation in the 2020 ICP.

PENSION BENEFITS—FISCAL YEAR 2020 The following table provides summary information about the pension benefits that have been earned by our Named Executive Officers in 2020. For 2020, the Named Executive Officers all participated in a pension plan sponsored in Switzerland and named “Columna Sammelstiftung Client Invest Winterthur” (the “Garrett Swiss Plan”). Garrett Swiss Plan benefits depend on each Named Executive Officer’s annual contribution election and age. The column in the table below entitled “Present Value of Accumulated Benefits” represents the value of the employer contributions in the Garrett Swiss Plan with related interest, converted to U.S. dollars.

Garrett Swiss Plan Information The Garrett Swiss Plan is a broad-based pension plan in which all of Garrett’s Swiss-based employees participate, as well as our Named Executive Officers. The Garrett Swiss Plan complies with Swiss tax requirements applicable to broad-based pension plans. Normal retirement age under the Garrett Swiss Plan is 65, for men, and 64, for women. All benefits are immediately vested. 161 The Named Executive Officers can contribute to the Garrett Swiss Plan based on their age at rates that range from 5%-11% of pensionable salary with additional contributions for death and disability benefits. Employer contributions are also based on the Named Executive Officer’s age at rates that range from 5.5%-11.5% of pensionable salary with additional contributions for death and disability benefits. For 2020, participants received an interest rate of return of 4.5%. The Garrett Swiss Plan defines pensionable salary as the sum of annual base salary, sales incentives/commissions, bonuses, gratuities and gifts for service years, in each case, while taking into account any changes to compensation have been agreed to for the applicable year, minus the annual coordination amount and limited to the Garrett Swiss Plan’s annual pay limit. For 2020, the annual coordination amount was $26,467 and the Garrett Swiss Plan’s annual pay limit was $848,047. Annual benefits under the Garrett Swiss Plan are calculated at a Named Executive Officer’s retirement date and are equal to a percentage of the Named Executive Officer’s account balance specified in the Garrett Swiss Plan based on his age and retirement year. The normal payment form is a joint and 60% survivor annuity with the member’s surviving spouse, with a lump sum option. Swiss pension law requires participants who were covered by the pension plan of another employer to transfer the termination benefit of that pension plan into the Garrett Swiss Plan.

NONQUALIFIED DEFERRED COMPENSATION—FISCAL YEAR 2020 The following table provides information on the defined contribution or other plans that during 2020 provided for deferrals of compensation to our Named Executive Officer’s on a basis that is not tax-qualified. Name Plan Craig Balis Garrett Supplemental Savings Plan(1) Executive Contributions in 2020 ($) Registrant Contributions in 2020 ($) Aggregate Earnings in 2020 ($) Aggregate Withdrawals /Distributions ($) Aggregate Balance as of December 31, 2020 ($) — — 27,910 — 385,788 (1) In 2020, Mr. Balis participated in the Garrett Supplemental Savings Plan. Mr. Balis does not contribute to the plan (and Garrett is not actively making any matching contributions to his account); however, his account continues to earn interest under the plan. All deferred compensation amounts are unfunded and unsecured obligations of Garrett and are subject to the same risks as any of Garrett’s general obligations. No amounts reported in the table above for Mr. Balis have been reported in our Summary Compensation Table for 2018, 2019 or 2020. Supplemental Savings Plan (“SSP”) The SSP is a U.S. nonqualified deferred compensation plan that permits executives to defer the portion of their pre-tax compensation and incentive compensation that could not be contributed to Garrett’s tax-qualified 401(k) plan due to the annual deferral and compensation limits imposed by the Internal Revenue Code and/or up to an additional 25% of base annual salary for the plan year. Employer matching contributions are discretionary and immediately vested. Participant deferrals are credited with a rate of interest, compounded daily, based on the Fidelity U.S. Bond Index Fund. The rate is subject to change daily, and for 2020, the average rate was 7.8%. Mr. Balis elected to receive his SSP benefits in a lump sum, which amount will be paid on the later of six months or in January of the year following his separation from service. Amounts deferred cannot be withdrawn before the distribution date for any reason. 162 SUMMARY OF POTENTIAL PAYMENTS AND BENEFITS—TERMINATION EVENTS Overview This section describes the benefits payable to our Named Executive Officers in two circumstances: • • Termination of Employment; and Change in Control Employment Agreements and Offer Letters Olivier Rabiller. Under Mr. Rabiller’s offer letter, upon an involuntary termination of employment, other than for cause, Mr. Rabiller will be entitled to 24 months of base salary continuation and target incentive compensation, which will be extended to 36 months in the case of such termination within two years after a change in control of the Company. Company Severance Plan Our Named Executive Officers are eligible for severance payments and benefits upon a qualifying termination of employment under our Company severance plan. Upon an involuntary termination of employment by the Company, the Named Executive Officers are entitled to 18 months of base salary continuation, target incentive compensation prorated for the severance period and continued health and welfare benefits for the duration of the severance period, in each case, which will be extended to 24 months in the case of such termination following a change in control. We do not provide our Named Executive Officers, all of whom reside in Switzerland, with continued health and welfare benefits upon a qualifying termination of employment as these benefits typically are provided by the government. Garrett 2018 Stock Incentive Plan Under the terms of the 2018 Plan and applicable award agreements, in the event of a change in control, if (i) the successor corporation does not assume or substitute outstanding equity awards or (ii) if outstanding equity awards are assumed or substituted and the executive is terminated without “cause” or for “good reason” (each as defined in the 2018 Plan) within 24 months of the change in control, such equity awards will immediately vest (with PSU awards vesting at target or other substantially achieved performance as determined by the Compensation Committee and PCU awards vesting based on actual performance on a pro-rated basis) and, if applicable, become exercisable immediately prior to the change in control transaction. Upon death or disability, any outstanding equity awards held by the executive will immediately vest and, if applicable, become exercisable (with PSU and PCU awards vesting based on actual performance and on a prorated basis). 163 Summary of Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control The following table summarizes the payments that would be made to our Named Executive Officers upon the occurrence of certain qualifying terminations of employment or a change in control, in any case, occurring on December 31, 2020. Amounts shown do not include (i) accrued but unpaid base salary through the date of termination, or (ii) other benefits earned or accrued by the Named Executive Officer during his employment that are available to all salaried employees, such as accrued vacation, and assume that any successor company in a change in control assumed or substituted awards for any outstanding awards under the 2018 Plan. Pension and nonqualified deferred compensation benefits, which are described elsewhere in this filing, are not included in the table below in accordance with the applicable disclosure requirements, even though they may become payable at the times specified in the table.

The value of the accelerated equity awards was calculated based on the closing price of our common stock on December 31, 2020 ($4.43). Upon the death or disability of the executive, PSUs and PCUs will accelerate and vest based on actual performance through the completion of the performance period and will be prorated for the date of termination. We have estimated for purposes of this disclosure that PSUs and PCUs awarded under the applicable Company Long-Term Incentive Plan are valued based on projecting their performance as of December 31, 2020 through the end of the performance period. Note, however, that the value of these accelerated PSU and PCU awards would ultimately reflect actual performance and, accordingly the amounts payable in respect of such PSU and PCU awards under this scenario could be greater or less than the amounts reported. 164 CEO Pay Ratio Disclosure As required by Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information regarding the relationship of the annual total compensation of our median employee to the annual total compensation of Olivier Rabiller, our CEO. We consider the pay ratio specified below to be a reasonable estimate, calculated in a manner that is intended to be consistent with the requirements of Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K. For 2020, our last completed fiscal year: • • the annual total compensation of the employee who represents our median compensated employee (other than our CEO) was $27,408; and the annual total compensation of our CEO, as reported in the Summary Compensation Table included above, was $4,624,167. Based on this information, for 2020, our CEO’s annual total compensation was 169 times that of the median of the annual total compensation of all of our employees (other than the CEO). Determining the Median Employee Employee Population We used our employee population data as of October 1, 2019 as the determination date for identifying our median employee. As of such date, our employee population consisted of approximately 6,100 individuals. Methodology for Determining Our Median Employee To identify the median employee from our employee population, we selected base salary and target bonus as the most appropriate measure of compensation, which was consistently applied to all of our employees included in the calculation. In identifying the median employee, we annualized the compensation of all permanent employees who were new-hires in 2019 and we converted international currencies to US dollars using the exchange rates on the determination date. This employee is the same employee identified for purposes of our 2020 disclosure. We believe that there have been no changes in our employee population or employee compensation arrangements since that median employee was identified in 2019 that would significantly impact our pay ratio disclosure. Compensation Measure and Annual Total Compensation of Median Employee With respect to the annual total compensation of the employee who represents our median compensated employee, we calculated the elements of such employee’s compensation for 2020 in accordance with the requirements of Item 402(c)(2)(x) of Regulation S-K, resulting in annual total compensation of $27,146. Annual Total Compensation of CEO With respect to the annual total compensation of our CEO, we used the amount reported in the “Total” column of our 2020 Summary Compensation Table, included in this Annual Report. DIRECTOR COMPENSATION Non-Employee Director Compensation Agreements We have entered into letter agreements with each of our non-employee directors that generally provide a total compensation package that includes annual cash fees and annual restricted stock unit grants to compensate our non-employee directors for the time and effort necessary to serve on the Board. 165 Our non-employee directors receive a cash retainer for service on the Board and for service on each committee of which the non-employee director is a member. The Independent Chairperson of the Board and the Chairperson of each committee may receive a higher retainer for such service. Cash retainers are paid quarterly on the first business day of the applicable quarter. The fees paid to our non-employee directors for service on the Board are set forth in the table below. Cash Compensation Annual Cash Retainer Independent Chairperson Annual Cash Retainer Committee Chair Annual Cash Retainer Audit Compensation Nominating and Governance Other Committees Committee Member Annual Cash Retainer Audit Compensation Nominating and Governance and Other Committees $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ 80,000 100,000 20,000 15,000 15,000 10,000 10,000 7,500 5,000 In addition, each of our non-employee directors is eligible to receive an annual restricted stock unit grant with a total target value of $120,000 (the actual number of restricted stock units to be determined by dividing the target value by the fair market value of Company common stock on the date of the annual meeting of stockholders). The restricted stock units will vest on the earlier of the one-year anniversary of the grant date, death, disability or the non- employee director’s removal from the Board in connection with a change in control. In light of the uncertainties related to the global COVID-19 pandemic, in April 2020 our directors have agreed to reduce their annual cash retainers by 20% for the remainder of 2020. Additionally, in June 2020, our Nominating and Governance Committee approved an amendment to our non-employee director compensation program. Under the amended program, all non-employee director compensation will be paid in cash on a quarterly basis (with the annual equity grant for 2020 paid in equal portions cash in each of the third and fourth quarters). We also reimburse our non-employee directors for expenses incurred in connection with attending Board and committee meetings and provide our non-employee directors with business travel accident insurance. In accordance with our 2018 Stock Plan for Non-Employee Directors, the maximum number of shares with respect to which awards may be granted to any non-employee director during any calendar year is 20,000. Stock Ownership Guidelines Under our non-employee director stock ownership guidelines, each non-employee director is required to hold a number of shares of Company common stock having a market value equal to or greater than five times the annual base cash retainer payable to the non-employee director. Until the applicable ownership guideline is achieved, each non-employee director is required to retain at least 50% of the shares acquired from Company restricted stock unit grants, other than any shares required to be sold to pay applicable taxes. Once the applicable ownership guideline is achieved, the aforementioned retention ratio will no longer apply. If a non-employee director’s share ownership subsequently falls back below the applicable ownership guideline and remains below the ownership guideline on a continuous basis for a period of more than 24 months, the non-employee director will be required to comply again with the retention ratio until such time as the non-employee director again achieves the ownership guideline. The following table sets forth information regarding the compensation earned by our non-employee directors for the year ended December 31, 2020. Mr. Rabiller, who served as our President and Chief Executive Officer during the year ended December 31, 2020, and continues to serve in that capacity, does not receive additional compensation for his service as a director, and therefore is not included in the Director Compensation table below. All compensation paid to Mr. Rabiller is reported in the Summary Compensation Table included under “Executive Compensation.” 166 2020 Director Compensation Table Name Carlos M. Cardoso Maura J.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence Policies and Procedures for Approval of Related Party Transactions Our Board has adopted written policies and procedures (the “Policy”) for the review, approval and ratification of any transaction, arrangement or relationship (or any series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships) (“Related Person Transactions”) in which the Company (including any of its subsidiaries) was, is or will be a participant and the amount involved exceeds $120,000, and in which any “Related Person” had, has or will have a direct or indirect material interest. Under the Policy, a “Related Person” includes (i) any person who is, or at any time since the beginning of the Company’s last fiscal year was, a director, executive officer or a nominee to become a director of the Company; (ii) any person (or group) who is the beneficial owner of more than 5% of any class of the Company’s voting securities; (iii) any immediate family member of any of the foregoing persons; and (iv) any firm, corporation or other entity in which any of the foregoing persons is employed or is a general partner or principal or in a similar position or in which such person has a 10% or greater beneficial ownership interest. Prior to entering into any Related Person Transaction, the Related Person must provide notice to our General Counsel of the facts and circumstances of the proposed Related Person Transaction. The Policy calls for the proposed transaction to be assessed by the General Counsel and, if determined to be a Related Person Transaction, submitted to the Nominating and Governance Committee for its consideration at the next Nominating and Governance Committee meeting or, if the General Counsel, in consultation with the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer, determines that it is not practicable or desirable to wait until the next Nominating and Governance Committee meeting, to the Chair of the Nominating and Governance Committee. The Nominating and Governance Committee or Chair of the Nominating and Governance Committee, as applicable, will review and consider all the relevant facts and circumstances available, including but not limited to: • • the benefits to the Company of the proposed transaction; the impact on a director’s independence in the event the Related Person is a director, an immediately family member of a director or an entity in which a director is a partner, stockholder or executive officer; • • the availability of other sources for comparable products or services; and the terms of the transaction and the terms available to unrelated third parties or to employees generally. The Nominating and Governance Committee (or the Chair of the Nominating and Governance Committee) shall approve only those Related Person Transactions that are in, or are not inconsistent with, the best interests of the Company, as the Nominating and Governance Committee (or its Chair) determines in good faith. From time to time, the Nominating and Governance Committee shall review certain previously approved or ratified Related Person Transactions that remain ongoing in nature. Relationships and Transactions with Directors, Executive Officers and Significant Stockholders We have not been a party to any Related Person Transactions since January 1, 2020. Independence of the Board of Directors Although we are no longer listed on the NYSE, our Board continues to apply the NYSE independence criteria in assessing director independence. Our Board has determined that all of our non-employee directors, who are listed below, meet the applicable criteria for independence established by the NYSE. Olivier Rabiller is not an independent director under the NYSE rules due to his employment as our Chief Executive Officer and President. Independent Directors Carlos M. Cardoso Maura J. Clark Courtney M. Enghauser Carsten J. Reinhardt Susan L. Main Jérôme Stoll Scott A. Tozier 173 In addition, each member of the Audit Committee (Mr. Tozier, Mr. Cardoso, Ms. Enghauser and Ms. Main) meets the heightened independence standards required for audit committee members under NYSE rules and SEC standards and each member of the Compensation Committee (Mr. Reinhardt, Mr. Cardoso, Ms. Clark and Mr. Tozier) meets the heightened independence standards required for compensation committee members under the NYSE rules and SEC standards. In arriving at the foregoing independence determinations, the Board reviewed and discussed information provided by the directors with regard to each director’s business and personal activities and any relationships they have with us and our management. The Board considered that Carsten J. Reinhardt is a director and minority shareholder of TMax Holding GmbH (“TMax”), a supplier to Garrett. In 2020, the Company’s payments to TMax did not exceed 2% of TMax’ gross revenues. The Board determined that this relationship does not impair Mr. Reinhardt’s independence. The Board also considered that Jérôme Stoll was an employee of Renault during 2020, a customer of Garrett. In 2020, the Company’s payments from Renault did not exceed 2% of Renault’s revenues. The Board determined that this relationship does not impair Mr. Stoll’s independence. Item 14.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures The Audit Committee has adopted policies and procedures relating to the approval of all audit and non-audit services that are to be performed by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. This policy provides that the Company will not engage its independent registered public accounting firm to render audit or non-audit services unless the Audit Committee specifically approves the service in advance. Between regularly scheduled meetings of the Audit Committee, the chairperson of the Audit Committee may pre-approve the terms and fees of non-audit engagements with the independent auditor. Any such pre-approvals by the chairperson of the Audit Committee will be presented to the full Audit Committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting. 174 Item 15.

(c) During the Effective Period as to the Debtors, if, after complying with their obligations in Section 5.04(b), any of the Debtors or any person acting on the Debtors’ behalf determines to file, support, make a written proposal or counterproposal to any person relating to an Alternative Transaction Proposal or counterproposal to any person relating to an Alternative Transaction Proposal, the Debtors shall notify the Commitment Parties at least two (2) business days in advance of commencing such action, which notice shall specify the identity of the person making such Alternative Transaction Proposal and all of the material terms and conditions of such Alternative Transaction Proposal and attach the most current version of any proposed transaction agreement (and any related agreements) providing for such Alternative Transaction Proposal. Upon receipt of any notice pursuant to this clause, each of Honeywell, the Plan Sponsors, and the Requisite Additional Investors shall have the right to terminate this Agreement with respect to the Debtors pursuant to Section 9.07. (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing Section 5.04(a) and without prejudice to the Debtors’ rights under Section 5.04(b), from the Agreement Effective Date through and including January 25, 2021, the Debtors may provide the Official Committee of Equity Securities Holders (the “Equity Committee”) with access to a virtual data room that the Equity Committee may use to share available diligence information with third parties that execute nondisclosure agreements in forms acceptable to the Debtors to facilitate discussions regarding financing for a stand-alone plan of reorganization. 5.05. Lender RSA. During the Effective Period, each Consenting Lender that is a party to the Lender RSA agrees to act with respect to its rights and obligations under the Lender RSA in a manner consistent with its obligations under this Agreement and to refrain from acting with respect to its rights and obligations under the Lender RSA in any manner that is inconsistent with its obligations under this Agreement, including, without limitation, as necessary to avoid any voluntary termination of the Lender RSA at any time that such Consenting Lender remains bound under the terms of this Agreement. Section 6. Transfer of Claims and Interests. During the Effective Period, no Commitment Party, as applicable, shall sell, use, pledge, assign, transfer, permit the participation in, or otherwise dispose of any ownership (including any beneficial ownership4) in any Debtor Claims/Interests in whole or in part (each, a (a) 4 As used herein, the term “beneficial ownership” means the direct or indirect economic ownership of, and/or the power, whether by contract or otherwise, to direct the exercise of the voting rights and the disposition of, the Debtor Claims/Interests or the right to acquire such claims or interests. 19 “Transfer”) to any party, unless, solely with respect to Debtor Claims, it satisfies all of the following requirements (a transferee that satisfies such requirements, a “Permitted Transferee,” and such Transfer, a “Permitted Transfer”): (i) the intended transferee (x) is another Commitment Party, (y) as of the date of such Transfer, controls, is controlled by or is under common control with a Commitment Party, a Commitment Party’s affiliate, a Commitment Party’s affiliated fund or a Commitment Party’s affiliated entity with a common investment advisor, or (z) executes a transfer agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (a “Transfer Agreement”) prior to or concurrently with the closing of such Transfer; and (ii) notice of any Transfer, including the amount transferred and, in the case of (i)(z) above, the fully executed Transfer Agreement, shall be provided on a confidential and “professional eyes only” basis to K&E, Milbank, Jones Day, S&C, Gibson, and R&G within three (3) business days following the closing of such Transfer. (b) Upon satisfaction of the requirements in Section 6(a), (i) the Permitted Transferee shall be deemed to be a Commitment Party hereunder, and, for the avoidance of doubt, a Permitted Transferee is bound as a Party under this Agreement with respect to any and all claims against, or interests in, any of the Debtors, whether held at the time such Permitted Transferee becomes a Party or later acquired by such Permitted Transferee, and (ii) the transferor shall be deemed to relinquish its rights (and be released from its obligations) under this Agreement to the extent of such transferred rights and obligations. (c) Notwithstanding Section 6(a), a Qualified Marketmaker5 that acquires any Debtor Claims with the purpose and intent of acting as a Qualified Marketmaker for such Debtor Claims, shall not be required to execute and deliver to any of K&E, Milbank, Jones Day, S&C, Gibson, or R&G a Transfer Agreement in respect of such Debtor Claims if (A) such Qualified Marketmaker intends to subsequently transfer such Debtor Claims (by purchase, sale, assignment, participation, or otherwise) within five (5) business days of its acquisition to a transferee that is an entity that is not an affiliate, affiliated fund or affiliated entity with a common investment advisor, (B) the transferee otherwise is a Permitted Transferee and (C) the Transfer otherwise is a Permitted Transfer. To the extent that a Commitment Party is acting in its capacity as a Qualified Marketmaker, it may transfer (by purchase, sale, assignment, participation or otherwise) any right, title or interest in the Debtor Claims that such Commitment Party acquires in its capacity as a Qualified Marketmaker from a holder of the Debtor Claims who is not a Commitment Party without regard to the requirements set forth in Section 6(a) hereof. 5 As used herein, the term “Qualified Marketmaker” means an entity that (a) holds itself out to the public or the applicable private markets as standing ready in the ordinary course of business to purchase from customers and sell to customers claims against or interests in the Debtors (or enter with customers into long and short positions in claims against or interests in the Debtors), in its capacity as a dealer or market maker in claims against or interests in the Debtors and (b) is, in fact, regularly in the business of making a market in claims against or interests in issuers or borrowers (including equity or debt securities or other debt). 20 (d) This Agreement shall in no way be construed to preclude the Commitment Parties from acquiring additional Debtor Claims/Interests; provided, however, that (i) any Commitment Party that acquires additional Debtor Claims, as applicable, after the Agreement Effective Date shall notify K&E, Milbank, Jones Day, S&C, Gibson, and R&G of such acquisition, within five (5) business days following such acquisition, including the amount of such acquisition on a confidential and “professional eyes only” basis, which notice may be deemed to be provided by the filing of a statement with the Bankruptcy Court as required by Rule 2019 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure, including revised holdings information for such Commitment Party and (ii) such additional Debtor Claims/Interests shall automatically and immediately upon acquisition by a Commitment Party, as applicable, be deemed subject to the terms of this Agreement (regardless of when or whether notice of such acquisition is given to the respective counsels to the Commitment Parties). (e) In addition, other than pursuant to a Permitted Transfer, any holder of Debtor Claims/Interests shall become a Party, and become obligated as a Commitment Party, solely to the extent (i) the ascension of such holder to this Agreement is consented to in writing (with email being sufficient) by the Debtors, Honeywell, the Plan Sponsors, the Requisite Additional Investors and the Requisite Consenting Noteholders (which consent of any of the foregoing shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed) and (ii) (x) such holder executes a joinder agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (a “Joinder Agreement”), and shall be deemed a Commitment Party hereunder and (y) such joinder is delivered on a confidential and “professional eyes only” basis to K&E, Milbank, Jones Day, S&C, Gibson, and R&G within three (3) business days following the execution thereof. (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Commitment Party shall sell, assign, transfer, permit the participation in, or otherwise dispose of any ownership (including any Beneficial Ownership) in any Debtor Interests, in whole or in part, until (i) the Effective Period has terminated and (ii) such Commitment Party has filed an amendment to its Schedule 13D with respect to Garrett disclosing such termination. (g) Any Transfer made in violation of this Section 6 shall be void ab initio. Each other Commitment Party shall have the right to enforce the voiding of such Transfer. Any Commitment Party that effectuates a Permitted Transfer to a Permitted Transferee shall have no liability under this Agreement arising from or related to the failure of the Permitted Transferee to comply with the terms of this Agreement. (h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6, the restrictions on Transfer set forth in this Section 6 shall not apply to the grant of any liens or encumbrances on any claims and interests in favor of (x) a collateralized loan obligation or similar structured security in the ordinary course of business, or (y) a bank or broker dealer or prime broker holding such claims and interests in custody or prime brokerage in the ordinary course of business and which lien or encumbrance is released upon the Transfer of such claims and interests in accordance with the terms of the custody or prime brokerage agreement(s), as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, a bank, broker-dealer or prime broker holding custody of the claims and interests shall not be subject to the terms of this Agreement solely when acting in such capacity. 21 Section 7.

Restructuring Document Termination Event. If any Party files a pleading seeking authority to amend, modify, or withdraw any of the Restructuring Documents (the “Filing Party”) without the prior written consent of the Debtors, the Plan Sponsors, and Honeywell, solely to the extent the Additional Investors are adversely affected, the Requisite Additional Investors, solely to the extent the plan treatment of the Secured Credit Facility Claims is adversely affected, 27 the Requisite Consenting Lenders, and solely to the extent the economic treatment of the Senior Notes Claims or the Consenting Equityholders is adversely affected, the Requisite Consenting Noteholders or the Requisite Consenting Equityholders, respectively, such Parties, as applicable, may, upon notice to the Filing Party, terminate the Filing Party’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided, that the Filing Party shall have three (3) business days following such notice to withdraw such pleading; provided, further, that in the event that a Filing Party files an Approved Plan containing a modification or amendment that adversely affects the economic treatment of the Senior Notes Claims or plan treatment of the Secured Credit Facility Claims and if an individual Consenting Noteholder or Consenting Lender, as applicable, does not consent to such modification or amendment, then such individual Consenting Noteholder or Consenting Lender, as applicable, may, by delivering to the Debtors and the other Commitment Parties a written notice (email being sufficient) in accordance with Section 11.12 hereof, terminate this Agreement solely with respect to its obligations hereunder, unless such modification or amendment has been withdrawn, reversed, or annulled within three (3) business days of the Filing Party’s receipt of such notice. 9.05. Mutual Termination. This Agreement, and the obligations of all Parties hereunder, may be terminated by mutual written agreement (email being sufficient) among the Debtors and the Requisite Commitment Parties. 9.06. Automatic Termination. This Agreement shall terminate automatically without any further required action or notice on the Effective Date. 9.07. Termination of Debtors’ Rights and Obligations. Upon the occurrence of any of the following events, Honeywell, the Plan Sponsors, and the Additional Investors holding at least 60% of the commitments to purchase Convertible Series A Preferred Stock held by such Additional Investors together may, by delivering a written notice (email being sufficient) to the Debtors and the other Commitment Parties in accordance with Section 11.12, terminate the Debtors’ rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided that no such notice to terminate shall be effective at any time when any of Honeywell, the Plan Sponsors or any subset of the Additional Investors holding more than 40% of the commitments to purchase Convertible Series A Preferred Stock held by all Additional Investors are in material breach of this Agreement: Commitment Parties within fourteen (14) calendar days of the Agreement Effective Date; (a) all of the Debtors, other than Garrett, fail to deliver signature pages to this Agreement to the any Debtor to use commercially reasonable efforts to reach such Milestone; (b) the Debtors fail to meet any of the Milestones set forth in Section 4 as a result of the failure by (i) any Debtor fails to comply with, or any Debtor causes any person acting on the Debtors’ behalf to fail to comply with, Section 5.04 of this Agreement in any material respect or (ii) the Debtors deliver, or become required to deliver, a notice contemplated by Section 5.04(c); (c) section 1121 of the Bankruptcy Code to file a plan of reorganization and solicit votes thereon; (d) any Debtor consents to or fails to contest a motion to terminate its exclusive right under 28 any Debtor files any motion or application seeking authority to sell all or a material portion of its assets or equity interests, without the prior written consent of Honeywell, the Plan Sponsors, and the Requisite Additional Investors; (e) without the prior written consent of Honeywell, the Plan Sponsors, and the Requisite Additional Investors; or (f) any Debtor files any motion seeking authority to enter into postpetition secured financing, (g) the occurrence of an event of default under any debtor-in-possession financing that leads to an acceleration of such financing. 9.08. Effect of Termination. (a) No Party may terminate this Agreement if such Party failed to perform or comply in all material respects with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, with such failure to perform or comply causing, or resulting in, the occurrence of one or more termination events specified herein. The date on which termination of this Agreement is effective as to a Party shall be referred to as a “Termination Date” for that Party. (b) Upon the occurrence of a Termination Date as to a Party, this Agreement shall be of no further force and effect as to such Party and each Party subject to such termination shall be released from its commitments, undertakings, and agreements under or related to this Agreement and shall have the rights and remedies that it would have had, had it not entered into this Agreement, and shall be entitled to take all actions, whether with respect to the Restructuring Transactions or otherwise, that it would have been entitled to take had it not entered into this Agreement, including with respect to any and all claims or causes of action; provided, that such termination shall not relieve any such Party from any liability arising prior to termination. Upon the occurrence of a Termination Date prior to the Confirmation Order being entered by a Bankruptcy Court, any and all consents or ballots tendered by the Parties subject to such termination before a Termination Date shall be deemed, for all purposes, to be null and void from the first instance and shall not be considered or otherwise used in any manner by the Parties in connection with the Restructuring Transactions and this Agreement or otherwise; provided, however, any Commitment Party withdrawing or changing its vote pursuant to this Section 9.08(b) shall promptly provide written notice of such withdrawal or change to each other Party to this Agreement and file notice of such withdrawal or change with the Bankruptcy Court. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as prohibiting a Debtor or any of the Commitment Parties from contesting whether any such termination is in accordance with its terms or to seek enforcement of any rights under this Agreement that arose or existed before a Termination Date. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, nothing herein is intended to, or does, in any manner waive, limit, impair, or restrict (a) any right of any Debtor or the ability of any Debtor to protect and reserve its rights (including rights under this Agreement), remedies, and interests, including its claims against any Commitment Party and (b) any right of any Commitment Party, or the ability of any Commitment Party, to protect and preserve its rights (including rights under this Agreement), remedies, and interests, including its claims against any Debtor or Commitment Party. No purported termination of this Agreement shall be effective under this Section 9.08(b) or otherwise if the Party seeking to terminate this Agreement is in material breach of this Agreement, except a termination pursuant to Section 9.03(d). 29 (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent that Honeywell, the Plan Sponsors, and the Additional Investors holding at least 60% of the commitments to purchase Convertible Series A Preferred Stock held by such Additional Investors together exercise any termination right with respect to the Debtors pursuant to Section 9.07, such action shall only terminate the Debtors’ rights and obligations under this Agreement, and the Commitment Parties shall not be permitted to terminate this Agreement with respect to any other Party. 9.09. Automatic Stay. The Debtors acknowledge that neither the giving of notice of termination by any Party pursuant to this Agreement nor compliance with any provision hereto shall be a violation of the automatic stay of section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code; provided, that nothing herein shall prejudice any Party’s rights to argue that the giving of notice of termination was not proper under the terms of this Agreement. Section 10. Amendments. This Agreement, including the Term Sheet, may not be modified, amended, or supplemented in any manner except as consented to (in writing, with email from the applicable counsel being sufficient) by (i) the Debtors, the Plan Sponsors, and Honeywell, (ii) solely to the extent such modification, amendment, or supplement adversely affects the Additional Investors, the Requisite Additional Investors, (iii) solely to the extent such modification, amendment, or supplement adversely affects the plan treatment of the Secured Credit Facility Claims specified in the Term Sheet, the Requisite Consenting Lenders (provided that, to the extent any such modification, amendment, or supplement alters Section 9.01(j) or materially adversely affects the rights of the Consenting Lenders under this Agreement and the Requisite Consenting Lenders have not consented to such modification, amendment, or supplement, the Requisite Consenting Lenders may, by delivering to the Debtors and the other Commitment Parties a written notice (email being sufficient) in accordance with Section 11.12 hereof, terminate this Agreement solely with respect to the obligations hereunder of the Consenting Lenders; provided, however, that, in the case of any alteration to Section 9.01(j) to which the Requisite Consenting Lenders have not consented, the Requisite Consenting Lenders must deliver any such notice within five (5) business days of receiving notice of such alteration), and (iv) solely to the extent such modification, amendment, or supplement adversely affects the Consenting Noteholders, the Requisite Consenting Noteholders (provided that, to the extent any such modification, amendment, or supplement adversely affects the economic treatment of the Senior Notes Claims, if an individual Consenting Noteholder does not consent to such modification, amendment, or supplement, such individual Consenting Noteholder may, by delivering to the Debtors and the other Commitment Parties a written notice (email being sufficient) in accordance with Section 11.12 hereof, terminate this Agreement solely with respect to its obligations hereunder).

Restructuring Term Sheet This term sheet (the “Term Sheet”) sets forth all material terms for (a) the legally binding commitments of the Parties to the Amended and Restated Plan Support Agreement, dated as of February 15, 2021 (the “PSA”), to which this Term Sheet is attached as Exhibit A and (b) the Approved Plan (hereinafter, the “Plan”).1 There shall be no consent right nor condition to the obligations of any of the Subscription Parties or Parties to their respective commitments to the Debtors under the PSA other than as expressly set forth in this Term Sheet or the PSA. The applicable parties may supplement or replace this Term Sheet with definitive documentation with respect to all or any part of their obligations hereunder, provided that the failure to agree on such definitive documentation shall not relieve the Parties of their obligations under the PSA subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein. THIS TERM SHEET DOES NOT CONSTITUTE (NOR SHALL IT BE CONSTRUED AS) AN OFFER WITH RESPECT TO ANY SECURITIES OR A SOLICITATION OF ACCEPTANCES OR REJECTIONS AS TO ANY PLAN, IT BEING UNDERSTOOD THAT SUCH A SOLICITATION, IF ANY, ONLY WILL BE MADE IN COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE PROVISIONS OF ALL APPLICABLE LAW. THIS TERM SHEET HAS BEEN PRODUCED FOR DISCUSSION AND SETTLEMENT PURPOSES ONLY AND IS SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF RULE 408 OF THE FEDERAL RULES OF EVIDENCE AND ANY OTHER APPLICABLE STATE OR FEDERAL RULES OR DOCTRINES PROTECTING THE USE OR DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION EXCHANGED IN THE CONTEXT OF SETTLEMENT DISCUSSIONS. THIS TERM SHEET INCORPORATES THE RULES OF CONSTRUCTION SET FORTH IN SECTION 102 OF THE BANKRUPTCY CODE. NOTHING IN THIS TERM SHEET SHALL BE DEEMED AN ADMISSION OF FACT OR LIABILITY BY ANY OF THE PARTIES. 1 Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in Annex 1 attached hereto or the PSA. 33560.00098 GENERAL PROVISIONS REGARDING THE RESTRUCTURING Convertible Series A Preferred Stock On the Effective Date, the Plan Sponsors and the Additional Investors (the “Subscription Parties”) shall purchase (subject to the Rights Offering) for cash, and Reorganized Garrett shall issue, a number of shares of Convertible Series A Preferred Stock at a purchase price of $1,250.8 million, in the aggregate. The Convertible Series A Preferred Stock shall have the following terms and conditions: Dividend. 11% per annum. Payable quarterly in cash or PIK at the option of reorganized Garrett; provided that dividends will automatically PIK during any period in which the Reorganized Debtors’ adjusted EBITDA (to be defined consistent with the definition of adjusted EBITDA included in the Credit Facilities, as they may be amended, modified or replaced from time to time) (“Adjusted EBITDA”) on a consolidated basis for the period of four fiscal quarters ending with the fiscal quarter immediately preceding the declaration of the dividend falls below $425 million. During any period in which dividends are payable in cash or PIK at the option of reorganized Garrett, the cash/PIK election will be determined by a majority of the disinterested members of the New Board (with the benefit of input from reorganized Garrett’s executive management team as such disinterested members deem appropriate). The Convertible Series A Preferred Stock will participate, on an as-converted basis, in any dividends paid to the holders of reorganized Garrett’s common stock. Conversion. Each holder will have the right to convert its shares of Convertible Series A Preferred Stock into common stock of reorganized Garrett, based on a conversion price of $3.50 per common share (the “Conversion Price”) and the initial liquidation preference of the Convertible Series A Preferred Stock, subject to customary conversion procedures and anti-dilution protections (for the avoidance of doubt, not applicable to the Rights Offering or the MIP). All outstanding Convertible Series A Preferred Stock shall convert into common stock of reorganized Garrett (i) with the approval of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Convertible Series A Preferred Stock; or (ii) automatically on the first date on or after the date that is two years from the Effective Date on which (A) $125 million or less of Amortization remains outstanding on the Series B Preferred Stock; (B) the common stock of reorganized Garrett has a 75-day volume-weighted average price per share that is greater than or equal to 150% of the Conversion Price; and (C) the Reorganized Debtors’ Adjusted EBITDA on a consolidated basis equals or exceeds $600 million for two (2) consecutive quarters (on an LTM basis). The common stock issued upon such conversion shall be registered on a resale registration statement. 2 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any accrued and unpaid dividends, whether or not previously declared, and any dividends paid in kind on shares of Convertible Series A Preferred Stock shall, as and when the initial liquidation preference of the Convertible Series A Preferred Stock (as adjusted) converts into common stock of reorganized Garrett, be paid in cash or, at reorganized Garrett’s option, convert at the lesser of: (i) the 30-day volume weighted average price per share of the common stock of reorganized Garrett at the time of such conversion; or (ii) the fair market value of the common stock of reorganized Garrett at the time of such conversion as determined by the New Board. Reorganized Garrett shall at all times reserve from its authorized and unissued shares of common stock not less than the aggregate number of shares of common stock as shall be issuable upon the conversion of all outstanding Convertible Series A Preferred Stock. Ranking. Senior liquidation and distribution rights with respect to all other preferred stock and common stock of reorganized Garrett. For the avoidance of doubt, in a sale, liquidation, or similar event, if not previously converted, the holders of shares of Convertible Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to the greater of (i) the liquidation preference of such stock plus accrued and unpaid dividends thereunder, whether or not previously declared, and (ii) the amount the Convertible Series A Preferred Stock, including accrued and unpaid dividends thereunder, whether or not previously declared, would receive if such shares converted immediately before such event into common stock of reorganized Garrett pursuant to the conversion right specified above (assuming solely for this purpose that any such accrued and unpaid dividends would be satisfied in cash and not in stock). Following the issue date, no preferred shares or equity securities ranking pari passu with or senior to the Convertible Series A Preferred Stock may be issued by the Reorganized Debtors without the consent of (x) holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Convertible Series A Preferred Stock and (y) holders of the Series B Preferred Stock. Voting. The Convertible Series A Preferred Stock will vote on all matters before holders of common stock in reorganized Garrett as a single class with such holders of common stock on an as- converted basis. Maturity. Perpetual. Liquidation Preference. The Convertible Series A Preferred Stock shall have a liquidation preference equal to $1 per share and be issued at $1 per share. 3 Redemption. The Convertible Series A Preferred Stock will not be redeemable by the Reorganized Debtors, except that (i) at any time following the sixth anniversary of the Effective Date or (ii) in connection with a transaction resulting in the transfer to a non-affiliate of (a) 50.01% or more of the total voting power of reorganized Garrett or (b) all or substantially all of the assets of the Reorganized Debtors (a “Change of Control”), reorganized Garrett may redeem any Convertible Series A Preferred Stock not converted into common stock of reorganized Garrett for an amount equal to the liquidation preference plus cash equal to the amount of any dividends that have accrued and not been paid in cash (including PIK dividends). Financial Covenant. Subject to exceptions that would be customary for analogous debt incurrence covenants applicable to senior secured credit agreements (including without limitation refinancing exceptions) and not less favorable than those set out in the Credit Facilities, the Reorganized Debtors will not be able to incur debt for borrowed money after the Effective Date that would result in the ratio of the Reorganized Debtors’ Adjusted EBITDA on an LTM basis as of the most recently ended fiscal quarter to debt for borrowed money outstanding exceeding 3x on a pro forma basis, without the approval of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Convertible Series A Preferred Stock. New Money Investors. The Plan Sponsors and the Additional Investors shall commit, severally and not jointly, to purchase shares of Convertible Series A Preferred Stock at a purchase price of $1,050.8 million in the aggregate in cash in accordance with the allocation annex attached hereto as Annex 2. Rights Offering. Further, Garrett shall conduct a rights offering (the “Rights Offering”) without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in which all holders of common stock of Garrett that do not participate in the Cash-Out Option shall receive subscription rights to purchase (subject to compliance with all applicable securities laws) additional shares of Convertible Series A Preferred Stock at a purchase price of $200 million in the aggregate in cash. The record date for purposes of participation in the Rights Offering by holders of common stock of Garrett shall be set at least one week after the Bankruptcy Court’s entry of the Disclosure Statement Order. 4 Backstop of Rights Offering. The Plan Sponsors and the Additional Investors (severally, but not jointly) commit to exercise the rights allocated to them in the Rights Offering based on their pro rata share of the outstanding common stock of Garrett as of the date of the execution of the PSA to purchase Convertible Series A Preferred Stock in cash at the issuance price. The Plan Sponsors and the Additional Investors (severally, but not jointly) commit to fully backstop the portion of the Rights Offering allocated to other holders of Garrett common stock (the “Remaining Rights Offering Amount”) by committing to purchase for cash at the issuance price all unsubscribed shares on customary terms and conditions to be set forth in a backstop commitment agreement reasonably acceptable to the Debtors, the Plan Sponsors, Honeywell, and the Requisite Additional Investors. The Plan Sponsors’ aggregate backstop commitment shall be 63.6% of the Remaining Rights Offering Amount (allocated equally between the Plan Sponsors). The Additional Investors’ aggregate backstop commitment shall be 36.4% of the Remaining Rights Offering Amount (allocated pro rata based on their holdings common stock of Garrett as of January 1, 2021). There shall be no separate fees or other compensation for the backstop commitments, other than customary expense reimbursement and indemnities. Consent Rights. The Plan Sponsors and the Debtors may not modify any of the foregoing terms or conditions, unless (i) Honeywell and the Requisite Additional Investors consent or (ii) such modification does not adversely affect the economic treatment of Honeywell or adversely affect the Additional Investors as provided herein. Other Provisions. The Convertible Series A Preferred Stock shall not have affirmative, negative or other covenants relating to the Company or any other material rights or privileges other than as set forth herein or as otherwise reasonably agreed among Honeywell, the Debtors, the Plan Sponsors, and the Requisite Additional Investors. Pro Forma Capital Structure The Plan shall provide for the recapitalization of the reorganized Debtors (the “Reorganized Debtors”) on the effective date of the Plan (the “Effective Date”). Cash Out Option 5 The Plan shall provide that Holders of common stock of Garrett may elect to deliver their shares of such common stock to reorganized Garrett for cancellation in exchange for a payment in cash on the Effective Date equal to $6.25 for each share properly delivered (the “Cash-Out Option” and, the cash payment offered through the Cash-Out Option, the “Cash-Out Consideration”). For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the Existing Commitment Parties shall not elect to participate in the Cash-Out Option and (ii) holders of common stock of Garrett that elect to participate in the Cash-Out Option and receive the Cash-Out Consideration shall (x) opt into the releases set forth in the Plan and (y) not be entitled to retain their common stock of reorganized Garrett or participate in the Rights Offering. Exit Credit Facilities 6 Upon the Bankruptcy Court’s entry of the Confirmation Order, Garrett shall have (x) accepted the assignment by FinCo of all of FinCo’s rights and obligations under the Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter and (y) obtained entry of a Bankruptcy Court order approving such assignment, provided that (1) the terms and conditions of the Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter shall be reasonably acceptable to the Debtors, the Plan Sponsors, Honeywell, and the Requisite Additional Investors (it being understood that such documents in the form most recently delivered to the Debtors prior to the date of the PSA are reasonably acceptable to all Parties) and (2) the Debtors shall have no financial obligations thereunder until the entry of the Confirmation Order. The aggregate principal amount of indebtedness outstanding under the Credit Facilities on the Effective Date shall not exceed the Debt Cap. • TREATMENT OF CLAIMS AND INTERESTS OF THE DEBTORS UNDER THE PLAN Class No. Type of Claim Treatment Impairment / Voting Unclassified Non-Voting Claims Except to the extent that a holder of an allowed Administrative Claim agrees to a less favorable treatment, in full and final satisfaction, settlement, release, and discharge of and in exchange for each such Claim, on the Effective Date or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, each holder thereof shall receive payment in full in cash.

For the avoidance of doubt, the issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock does not satisfy the Debtors obligations to pay Honeywell’s fees and expenses as set forth in Section 11.01 of the PSA. Moreover, claims arising under ordinary course business dealings or commercial contracts or related to ongoing services or amounts owed under the Employee Matters Agreement, Intellectual Property Agreement, Trademark License Agreement, Transition Services Agreement, or Cash Repatriation Agreement (each as defined in Honeywell’s proofs of claim) will be addressed by the Debtors and Honeywell in good faith and in the ordinary course of business, in consultation with the Plan Sponsors and subject to the Plan Sponsors’ consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), and are not being satisfied by the issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock, and any claims by Honeywell against the Debtors on account of such matters shall be included in Class 6 General Unsecured Claims.

The Series B Preferred Stock shall be non-participating, non- transferrable, non-voting shares of reorganized Garrett. Following the issue date, no preferred shares or equity securities ranking pari passu with or senior to the Series B Preferred Stock (for the avoidance of doubt, other than shares issued in the Rights Offering or as PIK interest to issued Convertible Series A Preferred Stock) may be issued by the Reorganized Debtors without the consent of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock (the “Series B Majority”). Reorganized Garrett and its subsidiaries shall not be permitted to enter into any consensual restriction on the ability of reorganized Garrett to make required payments on the Series B Preferred Stock without the prior written consent of the Series B Majority (except for customary restrictions in any agreement governing indebtedness).

Except to the extent that a holder of an allowed General Unsecured Claim agrees to less favorable treatment, in full and final satisfaction, compromise, settlement, release, and discharge of and in exchange for each such Claim, each holder thereof shall receive, at the option of the Plan Sponsors: (a) reinstatement of such allowed General Unsecured Claim pursuant to section 1124 of the Bankruptcy Code; (b) payment in full in cash on the later of (i) the Effective Date or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, or (ii) the date such payment is due in the ordinary course of business in accordance with the terms and conditions of the particular transaction giving rise to such allowed General Unsecured Claim; or (c) such other treatment rendering such general unsecured claim unimpaired in accordance with section 1124 of the Bankruptcy Code.10 Unimpaired / Deemed to Accept Class 6 General Unsecured Claims 10 Treatment of any material rejection damages claims to be reasonably acceptable to the Plan Sponsors, Honeywell, and the Requisite Additional Investors. 11 Class 7 Intercompany Claims Class 8 Intercompany Interests Class 9 Section 510(b) Claims Class 10 Equity Interests in Garrett Each allowed Intercompany Claim shall be either reinstated or cancelled, as reasonably agreed between the Debtors, Honeywell, the Plan Sponsors, and the Requisite Additional Investors, and released without any distribution.

Garrett shall take such steps as are reasonably necessary to maintain the listing of its common stock on a national exchange. Garrett will also provide the Subscription Parties with customary registration rights. The plan shall contain customary provisions providing for the funding of a reserve on the Effective Date, sized by the Debtors in their reasonable discretion, providing for the payment of fees and expenses incurred or to be incurred by estate professionals in connection with the Restructuring Transactions. All final requests for payment of professional fees shall be filed and served no later than 30 days after the Effective Date, and the Court shall determine the allowed amounts of such fees. Unless the professional fee claimant agrees to less favorable treatment, such claimant that has been approved by the Bankruptcy Court shall be paid in full in cash. The Plan shall contain release, exculpation, and injunction provisions substantively identical to the provisions set forth in Annex 3 hereto, except as the Debtors, the Plan Sponsors, Honeywell, and the Requisite Additional Investors may otherwise agree. On the Effective Date, the Debtors shall release any and all claims and causes of action against Honeywell and its Related Parties based on or relating to, or in any manner arising from, in whole or in part (i) the spin-off of the Debtors by Honeywell, (ii) the Indemnification Agreements and the Tax Matters Agreement, and (iii) all actions taken in connection with the Debtors’ chapter 11 cases (whether arising pre- or post-petition), provided that such release shall not include any claims arising under ordinary course business dealings or commercial contracts or related to ongoing services or amounts owed under the Employee Matters Agreement, Intellectual Property Agreement, Trademark License Agreement, Transition Services Agreement, or Cash Repatriation Agreement (each as defined in Honeywell’s proof of claim). On the Effective Date, Honeywell shall release any and all claims and causes of action against the Debtors and its Related Parties based on or relating to, or in any manner arising from, in whole or in part (i) the spin-off of the Debtors by Honeywell (and any litigation commenced in connection therewith), (ii) the Indemnification Agreements and the Tax Matters Agreement, and (iii) all actions taken in connection with the Debtors’ chapter 11 cases (whether arising pre- or post-petition), provided that such release shall not include any claims arising under ordinary course business dealings or commercial contracts or related to ongoing services or amounts owed under the Employee Matters Agreement, Intellectual Property Agreement, Trademark License Agreement, Transition Services Agreement, or Cash Repatriation Agreement (each as defined in Honeywell’s proof of claim).

For the avoidance of doubt, this mutual release shall have no carve out for willful misconduct, fraud, or gross negligence. The Plan will provide that the executory contracts and unexpired leases that are not rejected as of the Effective Date (either pursuant to the Plan or a separate motion) will be deemed assumed pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code. No executory contract or unexpired lease shall be rejected without the written consent of the Plan Sponsors, other than contracts related to Honeywell Claims to the extent contemplated herein or in the PSA.

The board of directors (the “New Board”) of reorganized Garrett will be seven (7) members, subject to increase with the consent of Honeywell (solely for so long as the Amortization remaining on the Series B Preferred Stock is greater than $125 million) and a majority of the outstanding shares of Convertible Series A Preferred Stock prior to the conversion thereof. All directors shall be of the same class and have ordinary duties of corporate directors under Delaware law. The composition of the New Board shall be determined as follows, with the New Board determined by the Plan on the Effective Date according to these principles; provided, that such nomination procedures shall not apply with respect to the Honeywell Director (as defined below): The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall have the right to elect one (1) board member (the “Honeywell Director”) to the New Board (which right shall be included in the Certificate of Designation for the Series B Preferred Stock) until the date that the Amortization remaining on the Series B Preferred Stock is $125 million or less (the “Resignation Date”). The Honeywell Director shall resign on the Resignation Date and, thereafter, the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall have no further right to elect any directors to the New Board. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the Honeywell Director shall not have any special governance rights, and (ii) solely in their capacity as such, the Honeywell Director shall have fiduciary duties only to reorganized Garrett. Prior to the conversion of the Convertible Series A Preferred Stock, the Additional Investors shall have the right to nominate one (1) board member (the “Additional Investors Director”) to the New Board, provided that, if the Additional Investors cease to collectively hold a number of shares of Convertible Series A Preferred Stock that is less than 60% of the number of shares of Convertible Series A Preferred Stock held by such investors on the issuance date, the Additional Investors Director shall resign, the Additional Investors shall have no further right to nominate any directors to the New Board, but, so long as 20% of the number of outstanding shares of Convertible Series A Preferred is owned by entities other than Centerbridge or Oaktree, the then-current holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Convertible Series A Preferred Stock, excluding any Convertible Series A Preferred Stock owned by Centerbridge and Oaktree, shall have the right to nominate a board member to the New Board to replace the Additional Investors Director. One (1) board member will be a member of reorganized Garrett’s executive management team. Half of the balance of the New Board nominees shall be selected by Centerbridge, for so long as Centerbridge holds a number of shares of common stock (including Convertible Series A Preferred Stock on an as-converted basis) that is no less than 60% of the number of shares of common stock (including Convertible Series A Preferred Stock on an as-converted basis) held by Centerbridge on the issuance date, with the number of nominees selected by Centerbridge subject to proportionate reduction as its ownership of the common stock (on an as-converted basis) further decreases. For so long as Centerbridge has the right to designate more than one nominee, at least one of those nominees will be an individual who is not an employee of Centerbridge. The other half of the balance of the New Board nominees shall be selected by Oaktree, for so long as Oaktree holds a number of shares of common stock (including Convertible Series A Preferred Stock on an as-converted basis) that is no less than 60% of the number of shares of common stock (including Convertible Series A Preferred Stock on an as-converted basis) held by Oaktree on the issuance date, with the number of nominees selected by Oaktree subject to proportionate reduction as its ownership of common stock (on an as-converted basis) further decreases. For so long as Oaktree has the right to designate more than one nominee, at least one of those nominees will be an individual who is not an employee of Oaktree. Nominees selected pursuant to the foregoing following the Effective Date will be subject to customary nomination procedures for public company directors to be implemented at reorganized Garrett. Reorganized Garrett shall have a post-Effective Date management incentive plan, the terms of which, including with respect to amount, form, structure, and vesting, shall be determined by the New Board taking into consideration then-current market practices for similarly situated companies. The Parties shall negotiate the definitive documents necessary to complete the Restructuring Transactions in good faith. Any and all documentation necessary to effectuate the Restructuring Transactions, including the definitive documents, shall be in form and substance consistent with this Term Sheet and the PSA. All consent rights not otherwise set forth herein shall be as set forth in the PSA.

Reservation of Rights Nothing herein is an admission of any kind. If the Restructuring Transactions are not consummated for any reason, all Parties reserve any and all of their respective rights. Retention of Jurisdiction The Plan will provide that the Bankruptcy Court shall retain jurisdiction for usual and customary matters.
