The Issuer was obligated to make quarterly principal payments throughout the term of the Tranche A Term Loan
according to the amortization schedule in the Credit Agreement. In conjunction with the partial repayment of the Tranche A
Term Loan during the year ended December 31, 2014, all principal payment obligations have been satisfied through March 1,
2018. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are prepayable at the Issuer's option without premium or penalty. The Credit
Agreement also contains certain mandatory prepayment provisions in the event the Company receives net cash proceeds from
certain asset sales or casualty events. No mandatory prepayments under these provisions have been made or are due through
December 31, 2015.
The Credit Agreement contains certain covenants that limit, among other things, the Company’s (and the Company’s
subsidiaries’) ability to incur certain additional indebtedness or liens, to dispose of certain assets, to make certain investments,
to prepay certain indebtedness and to pay dividends, or to make other distributions or redemptions/repurchases, in respect of
the Company’s equity interests. In addition, the Credit Agreement requires that the Company maintain a consolidated leverage
ratio (the ratio of Consolidated Total Indebtedness to Consolidated EBITDA, each as defined in the Credit Agreement) of less
than 2.75 to 1.0. The Credit Agreement also contains events of default customary for financings of this type. The Company was
in compliance with the Credit Agreement covenants as of December 31, 2015. In the first quarter of 2014, the Company
satisfied credit rating-related conditions to the suspension of many of the restrictive covenants and the mandatory prepayment
provisions relating to asset sales and casualty events discussed above. Such covenants and prepayment obligations are required
to be reinstated if the applicable credit rating criteria are no longer satisfied.
As of December 31, 2015, all obligations under the Credit Agreement are borrowed by Delphi Corporation and jointly
and severally guaranteed by its direct and indirect parent companies, subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Credit
Agreement. Refer to Note 22. Supplemental Guarantor and Non-Guarantor Condensed Consolidating Financial Statements for
additional information.
Prior to the first quarter of 2014, certain of Delphi Automotive PLC's direct and indirect subsidiaries, which are directly
or indirectly 100% owned by Delphi Automotive PLC, fully and unconditionally guaranteed all obligations under the Credit
Agreement. In addition, all obligations under the Credit Agreement, including the guarantees of those obligations, were
originally secured by certain assets of Delphi Corporation and the guarantors, including substantially all of the assets of Delphi
Automotive PLC, and its U.S. subsidiaries, and certain assets of Delphi Corporation’s direct and indirect parent companies. All
guarantees of Delphi Corporation's subsidiaries and all then-existing security interests were released during the first quarter of
2014 when the Company satisfied certain credit rating-related and other conditions under the terms of the Credit Agreement.
Such security interests and subsidiary guarantees may be reinstated at the election of the lenders if the applicable credit rating
criteria are no longer satisfied.

proceeds received from the issuance of the 2014 Senior Notes, as defined below. In March 2015, Delphi redeemed for cash the
entire $500 million aggregate principal amount outstanding of the 6.125% Senior Notes, financed by a portion of the proceeds
from the issuance of the 2015 Euro-denominated Senior Notes, as defined below. As a result of the redemptions of the 2011
