GENERAL 1.1 This Appendix 3 stipulates the rules and principles for the Service Charges payable by Purchaser to Service Provider for Services delivered under this Service Agreement. 1.2 The Parties agree that the Service Charges shall be updated for each new calendar year based on changes in required resources, costs and forecasted volumes. 2. DEFINITIONS 2.1 Any capitalised terms used but not specifically defined herein shall have the meanings set out for such terms in the Service Agreement. In addition, the capitalised terms set out below in this Section 2 shall for the purposes of this Service Specification have the meanings described herein. All capitalised terms in singular in the list of definitions shall have the same meaning in plural and vice versa. 2.2 “Common Costs” shall have the meaning as set out in Section 3.3 below. 2.3 “OBL” means Outbound Logistics. 2.4 “WC” means White Collar employee. 2.5 “BC” means Blue Collar employee. 2.6 “OPR” means Outward Processing Relief. 2.7 “Mark-up” means the additional charge added to all Service Provider’s costs in order to fulfil the “Arm’s length” principle as necessary in business relations between related parties. 3. COST SHARING PRINCIPLES 3.1 Purchaser shall, based on “Arm’s Length” principle, fully compensate Service Provider for all costs occurring related to activities under this Service Agreement which are executed on behalf of Purchaser. 3.2 The general principle is that costs that can be identified as directly arising from activities related to one Party’s Vehicles shall also be fully covered by that Party. 3.3 In cases when the distinction described in Section 3.2 above is not possible to make, i.e. when an activity adds value to both Parties’ outbound logistics flow, the costs for such activities (“Common Costs”) will be distributed between the Parties based on forecasted production volume (unless otherwise stated in the following) and, where applicable, its market distribution.


 
PS20-004 (Amended through PS25-026) 2 To establish the costs for a calendar year, the Parties’ combined volume forecast plan made available in November, preceding year, shall be used to determine each Parties’ share of the Common Costs. In the event that Purchaser during a calendar year adds an additional car model, manufacturing plant (pick-up location) and/or new market (destinations) which was not known at the time for the planning described in Section 3.3.1 above, the Common Costs will be adjusted based on a new volume forecast which is determined in good faith between the Parties. The updated Common Costs shall be applied from the first day of the calendar month when the changed condition is effective. SERVICE CHARGES 3.4 Hourly rates, general The hourly rates that are used for charging service costs to Purchaser shall be determined by Service Provider on an, at least, annual basis in compliance with applicable tax legislation, including but not limited to the principle of “Arm’s Length” between the Parties. The hourly rates shall be calculated using the cost plus method, i.e. full cost incurred plus an arm´s length Mark-up. The hourly rates, used at the time of preparation of this Service Agreement, represents the January 2025 level. The Parties agree that the Service Charges related to this Service Agreement will be continuously updated whenever the hourly rates are updated according to Section 3.4.1 above. The Parties agree that one Full Time Employee (“FTE”) represents [***] working hours per year. 3.5 Charges related to OBL Administration & Operation and IDP Purchasing Examples of the activities related to Administration and Operations of the outbound transports and related logistic services are listed in Appendix 1e. The costs for these activities are not directly influenced by the actually shipped volume of Vehicles since Service Provider must uphold a certain capacity on behalf of Purchaser. Therefore, the costs for the related activities shall be calculated for each calendar year and distributed evenly on the invoices for the Services under the Service Agreement, issued by Service Provider to Purchaser during said calendar year.

PS20-004 (Amended through PS25-026) 6 In the event that Service Provider needs to perform any kind of work on behalf of Purchaser, which is not part of the running operation activities, Purchaser shall compensate Service Provider for the time spent based on the hourly rates agreed between the Parties at the time. Before any such work is started, Service Provider shall present to Purchaser an estimation of the required hours, which Purchaser must approve. If the Parties cannot agree, the work shall not be carried out and Purchaser is responsible for any potential consequences. 3.6 Charges related to Damage Claims administration Examples of the activities related to Damage Claims administration services are listed in Appendix 1g. The costs for the services related Damage Claims administration and produced by Service Provider’s staff are not directly influenced by the actually shipped volume of Vehicles since Service Provider must uphold a certain capacity on behalf of Purchaser. Therefore, the costs for the related activities shall be calculated for each calendar year and distributed evenly on the invoices for the Services under the Service Agreement, issued by Service Provider to Purchaser during said calendar year. The costs for the services related to Damage Claims administration and produced by external providers are a mix of fixed costs and variable costs. These fees, as listed in the table in Section 3.6.4 below, are regulated in Service Provider’s contract with a third party provider and will be updated from time to time, normally once per year. The tables below show the cost categories and the estimated costs based on 2025 cost levels. [***] ___________________________________
