Lead time shortage 8 Hyundai Motor Europe Tech. Center § Experience out of 13 years of data collection throughout complex supply chains: – Under normal conditions a reliable investigation via IMDS can be performed within 2 -6 month= up to 180 days! But only if the substance is identified already ONE year before* * Time needed - to adjust existing tools and processes (GADSL is updated max 2/year!) - for suppliers to check and update their material reportings 360 days + 180 days = 540 days => Time needed for newly identified substances! (worste case)

Public Activity Coordination Tool (PACT) 9 Hyundai Motor Europe Tech. Center • As requested

Public Activity Coordination Tool (PACT) 9 Hyundai Motor Europe Tech. Center • As requested by Industry since a long time (also included in the ACEA presentations), and as one major outcome of the SVHC Roadmap projects, many EU member states have now agreed to announce much earlier than it is today (currently earliest announcement to regulate a substance is in the ROI) their intention to conduct a RMOA (Risk Management Option Analysis) on a potential SVHC. • This announcement is done on the ECHA webpage (see: http: //echa. europa. eu/addressing-chemicals-of-concern/substances-ofpotential-concern/svhc-roadmap-implementation-plan/pact) and shall serve as a first indication into future legislative measures.

Public Activity Coordination Tool (PACT) 11 Hyundai Motor Europe Tech. Center • This publication so far is not mentioned in the legal text and thus not mandatory to be done by each Member State. • However some of the most active ones (e. g. Germany, France, Sweden, Denmark and Holland) have already announced to publish each substances they are intending to regulated in the future under REACH. • As a consequence this means that they also commit to always perform an RMOA! • Conclusion for REACH TF: The impact of these substance on our business needs to be evaluated in order to provide valuable input into the RMOA discussions (-> SVHC survey). • In order to guarantee that this new legislative process also is accurately reflected in our commonly agreed processes, the IMDSGADSL-REACH Process charts has been updated and released in the last Global GADSL Meeting.

Purpose and Challenge of the SVHC survey 14 Hyundai Motor Europe Tech. Center This

Purpose and Challenge of the SVHC survey 14 Hyundai Motor Europe Tech. Center This survey serves as basis for many of our future decisions: GENERAL QUESTION: Are we impacted by that substance? • Is there a need for Notification acc. to REACH Art 7. 2? o Basis for the evaluation of the notification factsheets • Is there a need for further actions concerning Authorisation or Restriction, e. g. o Do we have to give input into the stakeholder consultation? o Do we have to start communication with the responsible associations? o Do we need a Substance Pilot? • Which legacy parts have to be communicated acc. to Art. 33? • Is there an impact foreseen for the production sites of OEMs or suppliers? • Does the substance potentially have to be added to GADSL? What are the challenges? • Sometimes we compare with • We are not having data on the impact of substances into the production sites of our suppliers

Conclusion 20 Hyundai Motor Europe Tech. Center • Type approval legal requirements and minimum

Conclusion 20 Hyundai Motor Europe Tech. Center • Type approval legal requirements and minimum 10 year warranty obligation must be fulfilled. • • It is normal for OEMs to offer spare parts for 15 years or longer after End of Production. • Substitutions of substances can cause changes in function, geometry, thermal durability, …. • • Disproportionate efforts to substitute due to low demands for spare parts. Stockpiling not (always) possible: Storage capacity, material degradation e. g. of rubber parts, resource efficiency Repair of durable goods is beneficial for EU society Automotive Industry proposal for spare parts: § Agreement to the EC proposal to extend the LAD / Sunset date for 15 years? ? ? § Alternatively a combination of the extended transitional periods with a simplified authorisation CAN work if: ü It is easily affordable and achievable

Possible Solutions 1. OEMs or large suppliers make sure that relevant uses for spare parts production are included in the Af. A of the chemical industry (e. g. DEHP in rubber) 2. M/I can benefit from a simplified authorisation 3. M/I can benefit from longer sunset dates for the low volume production of spare parts Preferred solution from Automotive Industry 21 Hyundai Motor Europe Tech. Center

Latest Status of Discussions: 22 Hyundai Motor Europe Tech. Center • Public Consultation started

Latest Status of Discussions: 22 Hyundai Motor Europe Tech. Center • Public Consultation started (5 March, 2015) – One Intention: Collect more information on what substances are used in spare parts and, when possible, the volumes used. • Comments can be sent until April 30, 2015 • A working group of TF Reach has finalized the input from the automotive industry into the public consultation. – CLEPA (and others) already asked to support! • Decision expected for second half of 2015 • Current tendency from EC and MS: – “the solution that seems to have the broadest acceptance among all stakeholders is a simplification of the assessment of alternatives (Ao. A) and of the socio-economic analysis (SEA) in the application for authorisation. ” – The sunset date of some substance uses will pass before the planned implementing act has been adopted. For these cases, the Commission intends to extend the sunset dates specifically for legacy spare part uses of the Annex XIV substances concerned, until the implementing act is applied. – Simplified Ao. A and SEA templates will also be developed for substances used in legacy spare parts.

Simplified Authorisation for Spare Parts 23 Hyundai Motor Europe Tech. Center Pre-Requisites: 1. Should be more like Notification 2. 1 st level material / part producer (person who uses substances to manufacture materials / parts) may apply 3. Free of charge 4. Duration – set time frame (e. g. 15 years), can re-apply if still required 5. Automatically accepted by RAC / SEAC 6. No need for a Chemical Safety Report (CSR) 7. No need for Exposure Scenarios (replace with RMM in place) 8. Analysis of alternatives / Substitution plan obsolete – not required because spare parts are automatically phasing out Information to be provided: • • Template provided by association (e. g. ACEA-webpage) with socio-economic justification for spare parts in automotive To be completed by individual applicant only with: 1. Substance name 2. CAS # / EINECS # 3. Authorisation number 4. Use(s) Applied for 5. Usage / Volume information (e. g. 1 – 10 kg/pa; 10 -100 kg/pa) 6. Risk Management Measures in place

Latest developments 28 Hyundai Motor Europe Tech. Center • Member state interpretations of the term “article, ” diverge, in particular on how the threshold should be applied to complex articles, such as cars or spare parts. – The European Commission and most Member State authorities concluded that the threshold applies at the level of the whole article (e. g. car), but seven countries, including France and Germany, decided to apply the threshold at the level of each individual component, in the case of a car, the screen, plastic covers, capacitor, wires, etc. • In April 2014, the Court of Justice of the European Union was asked to rule on whether the 0. 1 percent limit applies to the article as a whole or to each component separately. On February 12, 2015, the Advocate-General, an advisor to the court, issued an opinion on this issue. • This opinion is important, since the Court, more often than not, follows the substance of such opinions. • The Court of Justice of the European Union is expected to release its judgment in the next several months.
