January 15, 2016 Purpose of SAWRP The Supplier Associated Warranty Reduction Program (SAWRP) is not responsibility based, it is based on associated warranty Creates an environment of cooperation between FCA and Suppliers. As partners sharing in the cost of not meeting objectives, we eliminate the non-value added activity of blame assignment Reflects FCA’s Foundational Principles: Transparency through availability and access to FCA US Warranty systems Collaboration between FCA US and Suppliers Shares accountability for warranty improvements Is a tool to compare warranty performance to a target in effort to reduce warranty

Supplier Associated Warranty Reduction Program (SAWRP)
January 15, 2016 Supplier Associated Warranty Reduction Program (SAWRP) The warranty targets remain fixed for all 12 months of reporting The warranty target setting methodology uses claim data regardless of responsibility The actual performance measured to the target is also regardless of responsibility Supplier warranty performance is measured by components that are replaced and identified as the failed component on the claim The warranty measure is based on the “So Equipped” divisor and does not include labor only warranty claims (i.e., where no part is replaced) Performance target is based on prior Supplier Manufacturing Location Code (SMLC)/Local Commodity Code (LCC) C/1000 results Determines Supplier Share Rate (Debit) or Supplier Credit Rate (CCM)

2018MY SAWRP Target-setting Methodology
January 15, 2016 2018MY SAWRP Target-setting Methodology If a Supplier is identified on the Top 300 List Determine the 2016 and 2017 Year End C/1000 for SMLC/LCC at 15MIS Apply the 15% Improvement Factor for both years Warranty Target for 2018MY will be the lesser of the past two model years warranty performance by SMLC/LCC If no data exists then an average for the SMLC or LCC will be used EXAMPLE: If a Supplier is not identified on the Top 300 List Determine the 2017 Year End C/1000 for each SMLC/LCC at 15MIS Apply the 15% Improvement Factor to calculate the 2018MY target for the SMLC/LCC Based on the SMLC/LCC C/1000 performance to the SAWRP Target, determines Supplier Share Rate (Debit) OR Supplier Credit Rate (CCM)

Supplier Performance Beats Target
January 15, 2016 Supplier Performance Beats Target If a SMLC/LCC beats the Warranty Target a one time Commercial Cost Management (CCM) Credit is given. Formula: (Target – Actual) Share value = 50% x Target SAWRP credit is not monetary. CCM Credit is used towards Material Cost Reduction Targets provided by Purchasing.
10
Supplier Performance Misses Target
January 15, 2016 Supplier Performance Misses Target Formula: (Actual – Target) Share value = 50% x Actual Improvement Factor
11

SAWRP Appeals There a 2 types of appeals:
January 15, 2016 SAWRP Appeals There a 2 types of appeals: Spike Appeal – A spike appeal can be submitted when the current C/1000 is 0.5 C/1000 over the warranty target at any month of reporting (3MIS – 15MIS). This removes the SMLC/LCC from the SAWRP automatic billing and the Warranty Recovery Group will initiate a manual warranty recovery case. This would be used to address financial billing only due to a warranty spike. 2. Target Appeal – A target appeal is a last resort option for the current model years warranty issues. These submissions are to address special warranty circumstances, and are submitted to either: Decrease supplier’s C/1000 Increase the warranty target Adjust Share Rate Adjust Global External Balanced Scorecard This would be used to adjust scoring The three types of target appeals are listed on the next slide
15
January 15, 2016 Target Appeals Suppliers may appeal to address special circumstances such as: Warranty Information System constraints (warranty not being assigned correctly) Appeal MUST be submitted prior to October 1st, 2018 2. New technology with no warranty history Appeal MUST be submitted prior to June 1st, 2018. 3. Appeals based on a failure of FCA US to react to a supplier’s recommended corrective action, or where the causal factor is clearly beyond the realm of the supplier’s control, will only be considered after escalation by Supplier Quality to the appropriate level within Engineering and Quality Missing 10 MIS review/appeal cutoff point.

Global External Balanced Scorecard (GEBSC) Target Methodology
January 15, 2016 Global External Balanced Scorecard (GEBSC) Target Methodology GEBSC Warranty Target Target is based on Local Commodity Code C/1000 average Average the Local Commodity Code C/1000 Based on 16MY C/1000 Average compared to 17MY C/1000 Average Target is lower of the C/1000 Average Apply 15% Improvement Factor Performance to the Local Commodity Code based Target will be used on the GEBSC for sourcing decisions FCA reserves the right to adjust as required during the model year More information regarding GEBSC Training is available in Supplier Warranty Management application in e-Supplier Connect.
21
GEBSC Scoring Scoring: Warranty Score is based on Performance to Target (Actual / Target) * 100 Green: Supplier meets or exceeds target (Performance to Target < = 100%) Score =80+ 𝑇𝑎𝑟𝑔𝑒𝑡−𝐴𝑐𝑡𝑢𝑎𝑙 𝑇𝑎𝑟𝑔𝑒𝑡 ∗21 Yellow: Performance to Target > 100% and < = 250% Score = 80− Actual−𝑇𝑎𝑟𝑔𝑒𝑡 Ac𝑡𝑢𝑎𝑙 ∗33 Red: Performance to Target > 250% AND OVER Monthly Claim Threshold in Early Warranty Tracking (EWT) for 2018MY for the SMLC/LCC (Jan 1, 2017 through the end of the reporting month). Exception- If the EWT claim count is below the “Monthly Claim Threshold” then the GEBSC Score defaults to a Yellow score of 60%. Monthly claim threshold is based on an accrued schedule below. If your EWT claim count is greater than or equal to the “Monthly Claim Threshold” then use the “Red Status” chart (on the right) for the score. 21

Warranty is assigned to the sub-tier Supplier (consignor). Module Pay As Built: Warranty FCA US has a purchase order with the sub-tier Supplier, creates “MPAB partners” on the PO with the end item Supplier for manufacturing, releases and payments. The end item Supplier manages scheduling/logistics/inventory of the sub-tier Supplier. Warranty is assigned to the sub-tier Supplier. Other Directed source parts: Warranty is assigned to the end item Supplier. This slide approved by Diana Hirn with regard to wording on directed source parts.
