TK Holdings Inc. (“TKH”) in its capacity as foreign representative of the Chapter 11 Debtors (the “U.S. Foreign Representative”), makes this application seeking the following orders: (a) an Initial Recognition Order (Foreign Main Proceeding), among other things: (i) abridging and validating the time for service; (ii) ordering and declaring that the U.S. Foreign Representative is a “foreign representative” as defined in s. 45 of the CCAA in respect of the petitions commenced by the Chapter 11 Debtors in the United States Bankruptcy Court, District of Delaware (the “Chapter 11 Proceedings"); (iii) recognizing the Chapter 11 Proceedings as a "foreign main proceeding" as defined in section 45 of the CCAA; and (iv) ordering the other mandatory relief set out in section 48(1) of the CCAA. (b) a Supplemental Recognition Order (Foreign Main Proceeding), among other things: (i) recognizing and giving full force and effect in all provinces and territories of Canada to certain U.S. First Day Orders (as defined below) made in the Chapter 11 Proceedings; (ii) appointing FTI Consulting Canada Inc. as information officer; and - 4 - 5 (iii) granting additional stays and protections consistent with the Model Supplemental Recognition Order in Ontario. 2. The grounds for the application are: Background and Foreign Proceedings (a) Takata Corporation (“TJKP”), together with its direct and indirect subsidiaries, including TKH (“Takata”), is a global leader in the manufacture of automotive safety components, including seatbelts and airbags. For well over 50 years, Takata has been a pioneer in the development and production of safety systems and its cutting edge and innovative products have saved countless lives; (b) While Takata has no assets (other than retainers with professionals, including counsel) or operations in Canada, its products appear in vehicles in Canada since Takata sells its products to original equipment manufacturer customers (the “OEMs” or the “Customers”), who in turn manufacture and sell automobiles in Canada; (c) Recently, despite its long history of leadership and excellence, Takata has experienced financial distress due to issues relating to certain of its airbag inflators containing phase-stabilized ammonium nitrate (“PSAN Inflators”), which have ruptured during deployment of the airbag. This has led to wide-ranging recalls of vehicles in Canada, the United States and elsewhere; (d) Takata has been named as a defendant in a number of actions in Canada relating to the PSAN Inflators, including fourteen (14) uncertified class actions in Canada (four of which have been dismissed, five of which are currently in abeyance and five of which have been consolidated into national class actions proceeding in Ontario (collectively, the “Canadian - 5 - 6 Class Actions”)) and two personal injury actions (collectively the “Canadian Personal Injury Actions” and collectively with the Canadian Class Actions, the “Canadian Actions”). Although several of the Canadian Actions allege personal injuries, there have been no known instances of inflator rupture in Canada to date; (e) Takata also faces significant liabilities relating to the PSAN Inflators in the United States and elsewhere including: (i) A USD $25 million criminal fine and USD $975 million in restitution payments arising out of a plea agreement with the United States Department of Justice, Criminal Division, Fraud Section, and the United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Michigan, USD $850 million of which remains outstanding and must be satisfied in full be February 27, 2018; (ii) An up to USD $200 million civil penalty owed by TKH to the United States National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (“NHTSA”) in the U.S. in connection with recalls, which consists of USD$70 million in non-contingent penalties (USD $50 million of which is outstanding and due by October 2020) and USD$130 million in penalties that are deferred and held in abeyance pending TKH’s compliance with certain provisions of a consent order with NHTSA; (iii) Recall-related indemnification and warranty liabilities, in the billions of dollars, owed to OEM customers who purchased and installed the affected components into vehicles that were then sold globally, which, based on the results of the marketing and sale process, exceed the enterprise value of the Debtors and their affiliates; and - 6 - 7 (iv) Significant ongoing and potential future litigation claims in the United States and Mexico (in addition to the Canadian Actions) asserting damages claims for personal injury, wrongful death and economic losses, among other things, relating to the affected airbags; (f) Despite the complexities and risks resulting from the unprecedented product recalls and the impending liquidity risks, Takata is close to finalizing the terms of a global transaction with Key Safety Systems, Inc. ("KSS" and, collectively with one or more of its current or newly formed subsidiaries or designated affiliates, the “Plan Sponsor”) for the sale of substantially all of Takata’s global operations (the “Global Transaction”) after an expansive sale and marketing process; (g) The Global Transaction is expected to have the support of a significant majority of Takata’s OEM Customers (the “Consenting OEMs”) and to produce a better result for the Chapter 11 Debtors’ stakeholders than a liquidation (which, among other things, would potentially impact ongoing product recalls by putting the stable and continuous supply of parts to the OEMs, including replacement parts for vehicles subject to recall, at significant risk); (h) While the Chapter 11 Debtors are close to finalizing the Global Transaction, they determined that the Chapter 11 Debtors’ liquidity position was not sustainable without an insolvency filing in light of vendor reaction to news of a pending bankruptcy filing; (i) On June 25, 2017, the Chapter 11 Debtors filed voluntary petitions for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code.

Rapid international expansion was a main driver of the firm’s growth. Takata had to develop adequate strategies to keep up with this development. The result was a broad array of configuration and coordination strategies, which are at the heart of this case study. To get to the bottom of Takata’s internationalization approaches, we begin by examining general characteristics of the automotive safety industry.

For the full text of this licence, please go to: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/2.5/ Systems for the Automotive Industry for Improved Safety of Pregnant Occupants by Alix Mary Weekes (BEng hons) A Doctoral Thesis Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of Doctor of Philosophy of Loughborough University June 2010 © Alix Mary Weekes 2010 Abstract ABSTRACT The thesis presents an investigation of pregnant women’s safety and comfort needs during car travel. A survey is used to investigate all aspects and problems of car travel. This survey is a comprehensive examination of the entire driving activity with much detail of reported difficulties from pregnant women that forms a novel resource for the automotive engineers. The survey results are used to generate guidelines for the automotive industry. A series of sled tests are presented that investigate seat belt use in pregnancy including the use of lap belt positioners. The peak abdominal pressure results clearly agree with current guidelines that the lap belt should be positioned across the hips and not across the abdomen. This research includes a novel anthropometric dataset for 107 pregnant women including measurements especially selected for the field of automotive design and to describe the changes of pregnancy. This includes investigation of pregnant driver’s proximity to the steering wheel. A novel measurement of ‘knee splay’ is used to define the pregnant women’s preference to sit with their knees widely spaced instead of knees together, in both normal sitting and in a car.
