In addition to the items above, the 4.0% Series A Preferred Convertible Holders (Series A Preferred Holders) will vote separately as a class to elect three Directors for a one-year term expiring in 2012 or upon the election and qualification of their successors.

The record date for the Annual Meeting is March 7, 2011 (the Record Date). Only shareholders of record at the close of business on the Record Date can vote at the Annual Meeting. Dana mailed this Notice of Annual Meeting to those shareholders. Action may be taken at the Annual Meeting on any of the foregoing proposals on the date specified above or any date or dates to which the Annual Meeting may be adjourned or postponed.

Dana will have a list of shareholders who can vote at the Annual Meeting available for inspection by shareholders at the Annual Meeting and, for 10 days prior to the Annual Meeting, during regular business hours at Dana’s Law Department, 3939 Technology Drive, Maumee, Ohio 43537.

If you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, but are not a shareholder of record because you hold your shares in street name, please bring evidence of your beneficial ownership of your shares ( e.g., a copy of a recent brokerage statement showing the shares) with you to the Annual Meeting. You also must bring the proxy card your broker provided to you if you intend to vote at the meeting.

2011 PROXY STATEMENT

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

The Board of Directors is soliciting proxies to be used at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held on Wednesday, May 4, 2011, beginning at 8:30 a.m., Eastern Time, at The Westin Detroit Metropolitan Airport, 2501 Worldgateway Place, Romulus, Michigan 48242. This proxy statement and the enclosed form of proxy are being made available to shareholders beginning April 4, 2011.

What is a proxy?

A proxy is your authorization for someone else to vote for you in the way that you want to vote. When you complete and submit a proxy card or use the automated telephone voting system or the Internet voting system, you are submitting a proxy. Dana’s Board of Directors is soliciting this proxy. All references in this proxy statement to “you” will mean you, the shareholder, and to “yours” will mean the shareholder’s or shareholders’, as appropriate.

What is a proxy statement?

A proxy statement is a document the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) requires to explain the matters on which you are asked to vote on by proxy and to disclose certain related information. This proxy statement and the accompanying proxy card were first mailed to the shareholders on or about April 4, 2011.

What is the purpose of the Annual Meeting?

At our Annual Meeting, shareholders will act upon the matters outlined in the notice of meeting, including i) the election of directors; ii) an advisory vote on executive compensation; iii) an advisory vote on the frequency of the advisory vote on executive compensation; and iv) ratification of the selection of Dana’s independent registered public accounting firm. Also, management will report on the state of Dana and respond to questions from shareholders.

What is the record date and what does it mean?

The record date for the Annual Meeting is March 7, 2011 (the Record Date). The Record Date was established by the Board of Directors as required by Delaware law. Holders of common stock and holders of 4.0% Series A Preferred Convertible Stock (Series A Preferred) and 4.0% Series B Preferred Convertible Stock (Series B Preferred, and together with Series A Preferred, Preferred Stock) at the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to receive notice of the meeting and to vote at the meeting and any adjournments or postponements of the meeting.

Who is entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting?

Holders of our common stock and holders of our Preferred Stock at the close of business on the Record Date may vote at the meeting.

On March 7, 2011, 146,263,284 shares of our common stock, 2,500,000 shares of Series A Preferred and 5,221,199 shares of Series B Preferred were outstanding, and accordingly, are eligible to be voted. Pursuant to our Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the holders of our Preferred Stock vote their Preferred Stock on an as-if-converted basis based on a conversion price of $11.93. As of March 7, 2011, the outstanding Series A Preferred was convertible into approximately 20,955,574 shares of common stock, and the outstanding Series B Preferred was convertible into approximately 43,765,288 shares of common stock.

What are the voting rights of the holders of common stock and Preferred Stock?

Each outstanding share of common stock will be entitled to one vote on each matter to be voted upon.

The number of votes for each share of Preferred Stock is calculated in accordance with Dana’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation. At this year’s meeting, each outstanding share of Preferred Stock will be entitled to approximately 8.382 votes on each matter to be voted upon. As a result, the holders of our Series A Preferred will have approximately 20,955,574 shares of common stock on an as-if-converted basis to vote and the holders of our Series B Preferred will have approximately 43,765,288 shares of common stock on an as-if-converted basis to vote. The holders of Preferred Stock are permitted to vote on this as-if-converted basis along with the holders of common stock on (i) the election of directors, (ii) an advisory vote on executive compensation, (iii) an advisory vote on the frequency of the advisory vote on executive compensation and (iv) the ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the independent registered accounting firm and for all other matters that properly come before the meeting.

Who elects the Series A Preferred Directors?

Our Restated Certificate of Incorporation and the Shareholders Agreement dated January 31, 2008 give the holders of our Series A Preferred the right to elect three directors at our Annual Meeting. Only the holders of our Series A Preferred will be entitled to vote to elect these three directors to our Board. Currently, Centerbridge Capital Partners, L.P. and certain of its affiliates (collectively, Centerbridge) are the only holders of our Series A Preferred.

What is the difference between a shareholder of record and a “street name” holder?

If your shares are registered directly in your name, you are considered the shareholder of record with respect to those shares.

If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, then the brokerage firm, bank or other nominee is considered to be the shareholder of record with respect to those shares. However, you still are considered the beneficial owner of those shares, and your shares are said to be held in “street name.” Street name holders generally cannot vote their shares directly and must instead instruct the brokerage firm, bank or other nominee how to vote their shares. See “How do I vote my shares?” below.

How do I vote my shares?

If you are a shareholder of record as of March 7, 2011, as opposed to a street name holder, you will be able to vote in four ways: In person, by telephone, by the Internet, or by proxy card.

To vote by proxy card, sign, date and return the enclosed proxy card. To vote by using the automated telephone voting system or the Internet voting system, the instructions for shareholders of record are as follows:

TO VOTE BY TELEPHONE: 800-560-1965

• Use any touch-tone telephone to vote your proxy.
• Have your proxy card and the last four digits of your Social
Security Number or Tax Identification Number available when you
call.
• Follow the simple instructions the system provides you.
• You may dial this toll free number at your convenience,
24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The deadline for
telephone voting is 1 PM (ET), May 3, 2011.

(OR)

TO VOTE BY THE INTERNET: www.ematerials.com/dan

• Use the Internet to vote your proxy.
• Have your proxy card and the last four digits of your Social
Security Number or Tax Identification Number available when you
access the website.
• Follow the simple instructions to obtain your records and create
an electronic ballot.
• You may log on to this Internet site at your convenience,
24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The deadline for
Internet voting is 1 PM (ET), May 3, 2011.

If you submit a proxy to Dana before the Annual Meeting, the persons named as proxies will vote your shares as you directed. If no instructions are specified, the proxy will be voted: i) “ FOR ” all of the listed director nominees; ii) “ FOR ” approval of the advisory vote on executive compensation; iii) “ FOR ” approval of an annual advisory vote on executive compensation; and iv) “ FOR ” ratification of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm.

You may revoke a proxy at any time before the proxy is exercised by:

(1) delivering written notice of revocation to the Corporate Secretary of Dana at the Dana Law Department, 3939 Technology Drive, Maumee, Ohio 43537;

(2) submitting another properly completed proxy card that is later dated;

(3) voting by telephone at a subsequent time;

(4) voting by Internet at a subsequent time; or

(5) voting in person at the Annual Meeting.

If you hold your shares in “street name,” you must provide voting instructions for your shares in the manner prescribed by your brokerage firm, bank or other nominee. Your brokerage firm, bank or other nominee has enclosed or otherwise provided a voting instruction card for you to use in directing the brokerage firm, bank or other nominee how to vote your shares. If you hold your shares in street name and you want to vote in person at the Annual Meeting, you must obtain a legal proxy from your broker and present it at the Annual Meeting. You will also need to provide to us a brokerage statement if you intend to attend the Annual Meeting.

What is a quorum?

There were 210,984,146 shares of Dana’s common stock, including Preferred Stock on an as-if-converted basis for voting purposes, issued and outstanding on the Record Date. A majority of the issued and outstanding

XBRL Paragraph Pagebreak XBRL Pagebreak Begin

3

END PAGE WIDTH PAGEBREAK

Table of Contents

BEGIN PAGE WIDTH XBRL Pagebreak End

shares, on an as-if-converted basis, or 105,492,073 shares, present or represented by proxy, constitutes a quorum. A quorum must exist to conduct business at the Annual Meeting.

Will my shares be voted if I do not provide my proxy?

For shareholders of record: If you are the shareholders of record and you do not vote by proxy card, by telephone or via the Internet or in person at the Annual Meeting, your shares will not be voted at the Annual Meeting.

For holders in street name: If your shares are held in street name, your shares may be voted even if you do not provide the brokerage firm with voting instructions. Under New York Stock Exchange (the NYSE) rules, your broker may vote shares held in street name on certain “routine” matters. The NYSE rules consider the ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm to be a routine matter. As a result, your broker is permitted to vote your shares on this matter at its discretion without instruction from you.

When a proposal is not a routine matter, such as the election of directors, the advisory vote on executive compensation and the advisory vote on the frequency of the advisory vote on executive compensation, and you have not provided voting instructions to the brokerage firm with respect to that proposal, the brokerage firm cannot vote the shares on that proposal. The missing votes for these non-routine matters are called “broker non-votes.” Broker non-votes will be treated as shares that are present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining the presence of quorum, but not as shares present and voting on a specific proposal.

What vote is required?

Proposal I — Election of Directors: If a quorum exists, the election requires a plurality vote of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote, meaning that the director nominees with the most affirmative votes are elected to fill the available seats. As outlined in our Bylaws, any director who receives more “withheld” votes than “for” votes in an uncontested election is required to tender his or her resignation to the Board for consideration in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Bylaws. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will then evaluate the best interests of Dana and its shareholders and will recommend to the Board the action to be taken with respect to the tendered resignation. Following the Board’s determination, Dana will promptly publicly disclose the Board’s decision of whether or not to accept the resignation and an explanation of how the decision was reached, including, if applicable, the reasons for rejecting the resignation.

Proposal II — Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation: If a quorum exists, the proposal represents an advisory vote and the results will not be binding on the Board or Dana. The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the matter will constitute the shareholders’ non-binding approval with respect to our executive compensation programs. The Board will review the voting results and take them into consideration when making future decisions regarding executive compensation.

Proposal III — Advisory Vote on the Frequency of the Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation : If a quorum exists, the proposal represents an advisory vote and the results will not be binding on the Board or Dana. While the proposal requires the affirmative vote of the majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting for approval, the affirmative vote of a plurality of the shares present or represented at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the matter will be considered the shareholders’ non-binding approval as to the frequency of submission to shareholders of executive compensation proposals. Shareholders will be deemed to have approved the alternative (either one, two or three years) that receives the most votes, even if that alternative receives less than a majority of the votes cast. The Board will review the voting results and take them into consideration when making future decisions regarding the frequency of the advisory vote on executive compensation.

Proposal IV — Ratify the Appointment of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm: If a quorum exists, the proposal to ratify the appointment of the independent registered public accounting firm must receive the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the proposal. Therefore, abstentions will have the same effect as voting “Against” the proposal. Brokers will have discretionary voting power to vote this proposal so we do not anticipate any broker non-votes (described above).

Dana will vote properly completed proxies it receives prior to the Annual Meeting in the way you direct. If you do not specify how you want your shares voted, they will be voted in accordance with management’s recommendations. If you hold shares in more than one account, you must vote each proxy and/or voting instruction card you receive to ensure that all shares you own are voted. No other matters are currently scheduled to be presented at the Annual Meeting. An independent third party, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., will act as the inspector of the Annual Meeting and the tabulator of votes.

Who pays for the costs of the Annual Meeting?

Dana pays the cost of preparing and printing the proxy statement and soliciting proxies. Dana will solicit proxies primarily by mail, but may also solicit proxies personally and by telephone, the Internet, facsimile or other means. Dana will use the services of D.F. King & Co., Inc., a proxy solicitation firm, at a cost of $9,500 plus out-of-pocket expenses and fees for any special services. Officers and regular employees of Dana and its subsidiaries may also solicit proxies, but they will not receive additional compensation for soliciting proxies. Dana also will reimburse banks, brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for their out-of-pocket expenses for forwarding solicitation materials to beneficial owners of Dana’s common stock and Preferred Stock.

How can shareholders nominate individuals for election as directors or propose other business to be considered by the shareholders at the 2012 Annual Meeting of Shareholders?

All shareholder nominations of individuals for election as directors or proposals of other items of business to be considered by shareholders at the 2012 Annual Meeting of Shareholders must comply with applicable laws and regulations, including SEC Rule 14a-8, as well as Dana’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws, and Shareholders Agreement, and must be submitted in writing to our Corporate Secretary, Dana Holding Corporation, 3939 Technology Drive, Maumee, Ohio 43537.

Under Dana’s Bylaws, our shareholders must provide advance notice to Dana if they wish to nominate individuals for election as directors or propose an item of business to be considered by shareholders at the 2012 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. For the 2012 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, notice must be received by Dana’s Corporate Secretary no later than the close of business on February 4, 2012 and no earlier than the close of business on January 5, 2012.

If Dana moves the 2012 Annual Meeting of Shareholders to a date that is more than 30 days before or more than 70 days after the date which is the one year anniversary of this year’s Annual Meeting date ( i.e., May 4, 2012), Dana must receive your notice no earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to the meeting date and no later than the close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to the meeting date or the 10th day following the day on which Dana first makes a public announcement of the meeting date. In no event will a public announcement of an adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a shareholder’s notice as described above.

If Dana increases the number of directors to be elected to the Board of Directors at the 2012 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and there is no public announcement naming all of the nominees for director or specifying the size of the increased Board of Directors at least 100 days prior to the one year anniversary of this year’s Annual Meeting date ( i.e., May 4, 2012), then Dana will consider your notice timely (but only with respect to nominees for any new positions created by such increase) if Dana receives your notice no later than the close of business on the 10th day following the day on which Dana first makes the public announcement of the increase in the number of directors.

COMPENSATION OF EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Executive Summary

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis describes the key principles and approaches used to determine the elements of compensation awarded to, earned by and paid to each of our named executive officers. This discussion provides information and context to the compensation disclosures included in accompanying compensation tables and corresponding narrative discussion and footnotes below, and this discussion should be read in conjunction with those disclosures.

We believe that our compensation program objectives outlined below have resulted in decisions on executive compensation that have appropriately encouraged the achievement of financial goals that, despite recent challenging economic conditions, have benefited our shareholders and are expected to drive long term shareholder value. We had an outstanding 2010 fiscal year, meeting or exceeding all of our financial goals. Summarized below are some key highlights of our financial performance for fiscal 2010:

• We achieved positive net income of $10 Million.
• Our Adjusted EBITDA was $553 Million on Revenues of $6.1 Billion.
• Our Adjusted EBITDA was 9% as a percentage of Sales.
• Our Free Cash Flow was $242 Million.
• Our stock performance represented an approximate 58.8% total
cumulative one-year shareholder return — well above
the total cumulative one-year shareholder returns of the
S&P 500.

These achievements represent the continuation of a strong growth trend. We achieved positive net income after several years of losses, increased our revenues and free cash flow, as well as provided strong shareholder returns through an increased market price per share of our common stock.

Objectives and Elements of Our Compensation Program

The overall objectives of our executive compensation program are to attract, motivate, reward and retain talent. We believe that in order to achieve our objectives, our compensation and benefits must be competitive with executive compensation arrangements generally provided to executive officers at similar levels at other companies where we compete for talent. The various components of Dana’s executive compensation program are designed to:

• Align management incentives and shareholder interests;
• Motivate executive management and employees to focus on business
goals over immediate, short term and long term horizons; and
• Attract and retain executive talent.

The principal elements of our executive compensation program are:

• Base salary;
• Annual cash incentives;
• Long term incentives;
• Perquisite allowance; and
• Retirement benefits.

Certain executives, including some of our named executive officers, have executive employment agreements, supplemental executive retirement plans (SERPs), and change in control agreements, as described in the “Executive Agreements” section below.

Administration

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors assists the Board in fulfilling its obligations related to the compensation of Dana’s executive officers, and in general, with respect to compensation and benefits programs relating to all employees. Our current Compensation Committee consists of a chairman and independent directors who are appointed annually by the Board. Under its Charter, the Compensation Committee must have a minimum of three members who must meet the requirements for independence as set forth by the SEC, the New York Stock Exchange and our Standards of Director Independence. Members of the Committee must also qualify as “non-employee directors” within the meaning of Exchange Act Rule 16b-3 and as “outside directors” for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code.

The Compensation Committee members during 2010 were: Keith E. Wandell (Chairman), Mark A. Schulz, David P. Trucano and Joseph C. Muscari (since May 2010). Jerome B. York was a member of this committee until his unexpected death in March 2010.

The Compensation Committee’s responsibilities include, but are not limited to, reviewing our executive compensation philosophy and strategy, participating in the performance evaluation process for our President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO), setting base salary and incentive opportunities for our Executive Chairman, CEO and other senior executives, establishing the overarching pay philosophy for Dana’s management team, establishing incentive compensation and performance goals and objectives for our executive officers and other eligible executives and management, and determining whether performance objectives have been achieved. The Compensation Committee also recommends to the Board, employment, consulting and severance agreements for key senior executives designated by our CEO with the assistance of our Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) and Senior Vice President, Human Resources. These executives are not members of the Compensation Committee, but review and prepare materials for the Committee and attend portions of committee meetings. Executive sessions are held without the participation of any member of executive management, including the named executive officers.

Compensation Consultant

The Compensation Committee retained Mercer for 2010 as an independent advisor to the Compensation Committee. Our management utilized Towers Watson (Towers) and, in later 2010, Pay Governance for compensation and benefits advice. On a limited basis in 2010, our Board consulted with Pay Governance related to CEO pay. In addition to its services for the Compensation Committee, separate and distinct from executive and director compensation consulting services, as described above, Mercer provided select services for Dana in various other capacities in 2010. Those services included international pooling consulting, and other global compensation consulting where Mercer data was most prevalent in a given country, employee benefits reviews and administration.

Our Peer Group and Use of Competitive Market Data

Our executive management as well as the Compensation Committee reviews competitive market data to assist in decision-making regarding Dana’s compensation and benefits programs. Both reviewed market pay data among comparably-sized general industrial companies, as provided by Towers. The market pay data were gathered from Towers’ 2010 U.S. CDB General Industry Executive Database which contains compensation data from over 750 participating companies in the U.S.

Our management and the Compensation Committee review the pay and performance of each named executive officer and, in the process, use survey pay data to establish appropriate compensation levels. In the latter part of 2010, the Compensation Committee engaged Mercer to develop a peer group for use in

XBRL Paragraph Pagebreak XBRL Pagebreak Begin

establishing executive pay levels. The Compensation Committee revised Dana’s peer group based on the following considerations:

| • | Companies should be excluded if they are non-U.S. based companies, companies with expected revenue less than one half
and greater than two times Dana’s annual revenue and
companies recently in bankruptcy. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Ideal target companies for the peer group would have the
following features: |

| • | Similar industry — Auto Parts and Heavy Equipment
Manufacturers; |
| --- | --- |
| • | Similar size range — $2.5 billion to
$12 billion; and |
| • | Industrial Machinery, Construction and Farm Machinery, Heavy
Trucks, and other Durable Goods manufacturers |

Our revised peer group includes the following companies: Eaton Corporation, TRW Automotive Holdings, Navistar International Corp, Cummins Inc., Parker-Hannifin Corp, Lear Corp, Federal-Mogul Corp, Oshkosh Corp, Tenneco Inc, ArvinMeritor Inc, BorgWarner Inc, Manitowoc Co, Joy Global Inc, Exide Technologies and Timken Co.

As part of the normal year-end review process, our management worked with both Pay Governance and Mercer, utilizing survey data and peer group data to perform an annual review of our competitiveness in relation to base pay, annual and long term incentives and retirement benefits. External data is used to develop a competitive range considering market median levels of total compensation and benefits. From time to time, Dana may choose to exceed the market median pay range to attract the right talent or as individual performance dictates, but it is our general policy to target the 50th percentile.

Base Salaries

Base salaries are intended to be market-competitive and to provide a minimum level of guaranteed compensation. The base salaries of the executive officers, including our named executive officers, were determined when they first joined Dana, when they were promoted from within Dana or after other significant changes in an executive’s responsibilities. Dana’s philosophy is to target a range of +/-15% of the 50th percentile for senior executives. From time to time, when recruiting key talent from other companies both within and outside of the automotive industry or promoting from within Dana, base salaries could exceed the range, based on the candidate’s current salary or other factors. Our Executive Chairman, CEO, CAO, and Senior Vice President, Human Resources are responsible for making salary recommendations to the Compensation Committee for executive officers, other than with respect to their own salary. Our named executive officers received an average base salary increase of approximately 3% for 2010. Messrs. Devine and Sweetnam did not receive merit increases.

Mr. Devine’s base salary was increased from $1,000,000 to $1,040,000 as a result of assuming the additional role of Interim CEO in November 2010, when he succeeded Mr. Sweetnam.

Annual Incentive Program

Dana maintains an Annual Incentive Program for approximately 1,000 employees, including our named executive officers, that provides cash incentives driven by Dana’s performance. Each year, the Compensation Committee reviews and approves an annual cash bonus target for the named executive officers, as a percentage of base salary. Effective 2011, the named executive officers may earn from 0% to 200% of their individual target depending on actual corporate financial performance compared to the pre-established goals set by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee also establishes the performance metrics and goals that are used for determining AIP payouts.

The 2010 AIP was designed around achieving certain financial target performance goals, which were Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, less Restructuring and certain other adjustments or “EBIT-R” (60% weighted) of $114 million and Free Cash Flow or “FCF” of $100 million defined as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures and reorganization-related claim payments (40% weighted). We believe utilizing EBIT-R

XBRL Paragraph Pagebreak XBRL Pagebreak Begin

12

END PAGE WIDTH PAGEBREAK

Table of Contents

BEGIN PAGE WIDTH XBRL Pagebreak End

as a component of short-term compensation was important because this metric measures our operational profitability without discouraging the pursuit of restructuring and other actions that are expected to provide long-term value. Additionally, the Compensation Committee believed that FCF was a fundamental metric to use to determine short term incentive because of the significance of maintaining sufficient capital in industries such as ours. The initially established AIP goals for 2010 were subject to certain adjustments as approved by the Compensation Committee relating to higher sales volumes, exchange rate movements and the sale of the Structural Products business. After consideration of these effects, the revised AIP goal was $223 million for EBIT-R and $122 million for FCF. Our 2010 actual results for EBIT-R were $202 million and for FCF were $242 million. This performance by Dana in 2010 resulted in a payout of 147% of the established targets.

The value of annual incentive award payable based on annual base salary for reaching 2010 performance goals under the 2010 AIP at threshold, target and maximum for each of our named executive officers is set forth below in the table titled “Grants of Plan-Based Awards”. The actual award paid is set forth in the Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation column of the “Summary Compensation Table”.

Individual Discretionary Award

Our Compensation Committee determined that the 2010 contribution of certain executive officers should be further recognized and as a result made discretionary awards to these individuals. Messrs. Yost, Wallace and Bryant each received cash awards in recognition of taking on additional responsibilities during 2010. The actual award paid is set forth in the Bonus column of the “Summary Compensation Table”.

Long Term Incentive Awards and 2010 Long Term Incentive Program

We believe that our long term incentive awards serve an important role by balancing short term goals with long term shareholder value creation and minimizing risk taking behaviors that could negatively affect long term results. All long term incentive awards are made pursuant to the 2008 Dana Holding Corporation Omnibus Incentive Plan (the Plan). These awards are provided to achieve the following objectives:

• Align the executives’ interest with those of shareholders;
• Focus executives on longer-term performance and business
objectives, particularly the creation of shareholder
value; and
• Facilitate attraction, motivation and retention of executives.

2010 Long Term Incentive Award (LTIP)

Approximately 140 senior management employees designated by Dana, including our named executive officers, participated in the 2010 LTIP (excluding Mr. Devine). For 2010, Dana utilized market data as described in the annual review mentioned above to create a long term incentive compensation structure for the management team, including our named executive officers. Each of our named executive officers receives an LTIP award based on a target dollar value assigned to his or her position based on our market comparison for similar positions, utilizing both peer and market data. For 2010, our senior executives, including our named executive officers, were eligible for long term incentive awards consisting of 1/3 stock options, 1/3 performance shares and 1/3 performance cash.

BEGIN PAGE WIDTH XBRL Pagebreak End

We believe it is important to provide our senior executives, including the named executive officers, with both stock options and performance-based awards because the awards serve different purposes. Stock options, in particular, encourage executives to achieve long term goals because they only have value to the recipient if there are gains in the stock price that would also create value for our shareholders. Since the executive receives value from the stock option grants only in the event of stock appreciation, stock options are a strong incentive to (i) improve long term financial performance, (ii) focus on longer horizon decisions as well as short term decisions and (iii) to increase shareholder value. Stock option awards under the 2010 LTIP have a contractual term of 10 years and vest ratably over 3 years.

Performance-based awards encourage the executive to achieve Dana’s long-term goals, while being rewarded only if certain financial objectives are achieved. In addition, awards paid over time in our LTIP are intended to have a retentive effect. Performance-based awards under the 2010 LTIP are based on two key metrics; Return On Invested Capital (“ROIC”) (75% weighted) and Net New Business Wins (25% weighted). Our 2010 results for ROIC were 8.3% and $846 million for Net New Business Wins. Dana believes these two metrics are significant in that ROIC ensures management uses the company’s capital in an effective manner which drives shareholder returns and Net New Business Wins which also has a profitability threshold, ensures profitable growth in the future and that we are pursuing the right business. Our performance-based awards also include performance shares and performance cash.

Performance shares granted in 2010 cover three performance cycles (2010, 2011 and 2012). Each cycle is measured independently using metrics that are aligned to each year’s annual operating plan goals. Each year has the potential to be earned at, below, or above target but the award vests at the end of the performance period in early 2013. Each metric has a payout ranging from twenty five percent (25%) to two hundred percent (200%) of target. In the event performance exceeds 100% in total, the Compensation Committee has discretion to pay the portion in excess of 100% in either shares or cash.

Performance cash granted in 2010 covers the same three performance cycles as performance shares (2010, 2011 and 2012). Each year has the potential to be earned at, below, or above target with the award paying out shortly after completion of each annual performance cycle. Performance cash for the 2010 LTIP is paid annually to bridge the gap which existed in the absence of an LTIP prior to 2008. Each metric has a payout ranging from twenty five percent (25%) to two hundred fifty percent (250%) of target.

Based on 2010 company performance, the Compensation Committee certified that we achieved 103% of target for the 2010 cycle. The value of stock option awards and performance shares granted to each of our named executive officers in 2010 is set forth in the “Summary Compensation Table” below.

2008 Performance Share Award

As previously disclosed in the Proxy Statements for 2008 and 2009, Dana granted performance shares in 2008. These grants were scheduled to vest in 25% increments in 2008 and 2009 and the final 50% in 2010 based on meeting or exceeding certain financial performance goals. The 2008 tranche for all awards was forfeited because Dana did not meet the performance goals set by the Compensation Committee. The 2009 tranche for all awards was earned and issued at 100% target-level based on performance. The 2010 tranche will vest at 100% of target based on achieving the same goals established for the 2010 AIP. Messrs. Devine and Sweetnam did not participate in this award. The actual award paid is provided in the “Option Exercises and Stock Vested During 2010 Fiscal Year Table” below.

2010 Award to Mr. Devine

In November 2010, Mr. Devine became Interim CEO in addition to remaining our Executive Chairman as a result of Mr. Sweetnam’s resignation as CEO. As part of Mr. Devine’s compensation package, he received a long term incentive grant consisting of stock options. This award was made as an inducement to Mr. Devine to assume the additional role of Interim CEO.

Equity awards granted for each of our named executive officers are set forth in the “Grants of Plan-Based Awards” table below.

Equity-Based Grant Practices

Under our equity-based granting practices, we make regular equity-based grants to eligible employees, including named executive officers, in the first quarter of the calendar year at a regularly scheduled meeting of the Compensation Committee. Under our current practice, the exercise price, in the case of stock options, is the closing price of our common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the day of the grant. We also may award equity-based grants during the year to newly hired executive officers as part of their compensation package or to executives based on a promotion during the year. In the case of equity-based grants to newly hired employees who may be executive officers within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code (Covered Employees), or officers subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act (Section 16 Officers), including named executive officers, the grants are authorized by the Compensation Committee.

Mitigation of Potential Risk in Pay Programs

The Compensation Committee has reviewed our compensation policies and practices and determined that none are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on Dana. In order to avoid excessive risk taking behaviors, Dana has put into place several mechanisms, including, but not limited to, stock ownership guidelines, caps on annual incentive payouts, financial performance-based annual incentive programs, long term incentive awards (which are delivered primarily in the form of equity), practice of using a mix of multiple types of awards, and a practice of using multiple metrics to determine annual and long term incentive payouts. Stock ownership guidelines, as discussed below, encourage our executives to maintain a certain level of company ownership, thus encouraging them to have an interest in the long term success of the company. Long term incentive awards such as restricted stock units or performance shares or equity acquired externally, count toward our stock ownership guidelines. Annual incentive payouts are capped to avoid decisions that may lead to an exorbitant payout in one year to the detriment of performance in following years. In addition, our 2008 Omnibus Incentive Plan has a “clawback” provision related to incentive payments in the event of financial restatements.

Stock Ownership Guidelines

We believe it is important to align the interests of its senior officers with those of our shareholders through ongoing stock ownership. Our Compensation Committee adopted stock ownership guidelines to encourage senior officers to own a significant number of shares of our common stock. The stock ownership guidelines are calculated based on a multiple of the senior officer’s annual base salary. We encourage our senior officers to achieve the targeted stock ownership levels within 5 years of being promoted or named to the applicable senior officer position.

Employment Agreements

Our Compensation Committee determined it was necessary to offer executive employment agreements in certain limited circumstances to attract senior executives or encourage them to remain with us and forego retirement or other opportunities. As a result, we entered into executive employment agreements with Messrs. Sweetnam, Yost and Marcin on the terms discussed under the “Executive Agreements” section below.

Severance Arrangements

Under limited circumstances, we provide severance benefits to senior executives who separate from the Company. These arrangements provide certainty to both Dana and the former executive as to their rights and obligations to each other, including restrictive covenants, non-compete agreements and consulting services.

XBRL Pagebreak Begin

Table of Contents

BEGIN PAGE WIDTH XBRL Pagebreak End

Severance Plan/Change in Control

We adopted an executive severance and change in control plan (the Executive Severance Plan) in 2008. Each of our current named executive officers (except Mr. Devine) participates in the Executive Severance Plan. Mr. Marcin waived change in control severance in his employment agreement.

The Executive Severance Plan was adopted in order to provide severance pay to eligible executives whose employment is terminated (i) prior to or within a specified period of time following a change in control or (ii) for a reason other than cause, death, total disability or voluntary resignation. We believe that such a plan helps to both attract and retain executives by reducing the personal uncertainty that arises from the possibility of a future business combination or restructuring. Moreover, the Executive Severance Plan is designed to offset the uncertainty of executives regarding their own futures if a change in control or termination actually occurs. Dana believes that the Executive Severance Plan helps to increase shareholder value by encouraging the executives to consider change in control transactions that are in the best interest of Dana and its shareholders, even if the transaction may ultimately result in their termination of employment.

As mentioned in our 2010 proxy statement, all of our named executive officers who were eligible for the change in control severance benefit voluntarily waived the excise tax gross up provision of this plan excluding Mr. Yost, whose severance benefit is outlined in his executive employment agreement. As a result, any eligible executive officers would receive the better of the following change in control payments on an after-tax basis: i) change in control payment less excise tax (paid by executive), if the payment is deemed to be an excess parachute payment, and less other applicable income taxes or ii) change in control payment reduced to an amount such that an excise tax payment is not in effect, less other applicable income tax. If the excess parachute amount is not triggered, the change in control payment is not affected by any excise tax.

For more information on the terms and conditions of the change in control payments to certain of our named executive officers under the Executive Severance Plan, see the section entitled “Potential Payments and Benefits upon Termination or Change in Control.”

Perquisites and Other Benefits

Executive Perquisites Plan

We have adopted an Executive Perquisites Plan that provides for an annual cash allowance to eligible employees (including our named executive officers) in lieu of individual executive perquisites. We determined that it was in our best interest to provide a cash allowance, in lieu of an administratively burdensome and costly perquisite program, as part of a competitive pay package, which assists in recruiting and retaining talented executives from other companies that offer similar benefits. A fixed cash allowance also reduces our costs to administer the various components of a perquisites program. A cash-based program is preferred in lieu of programs such as car allowances, club memberships, tax and financial planning, etc. typically provided in a company-managed executive perquisite program. In addition, our cash perquisite program is a taxable benefit, and unlike some managed perquisite programs, we do not provide tax gross-up payments to cover applicable taxes on the allowance. Our Executive Chairman receives $75,000 per year. As part of Mr. Sweetnam’s employment agreement, he received a perquisite allowance of $100,000 annually. The remaining named executive officers are each entitled to $35,000 annually.

Commercial Air Travel

We provide commercial air travel for Mr. Devine to and from his home in California. This arrangement was made to encourage Mr. Devine to continue service with Dana while his residence and family remained in California and in lieu of relocation and home purchase assistance. For 2010, this benefit was treated as taxable compensation for which Dana reimbursed Mr. Devine for the amount of the tax obligation. This arrangement is more economical to Dana compared to using private aircraft. Mr. Devine elected to discontinue this tax reimbursement benefit for 2011.

The aggregate cost to Dana of this benefit for Mr. Devine is described further under the “Summary Compensation Table” and related footnotes below.

Automotive Transportation

We provide our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Yost, with periodic access to automotive transportation service between his home located in the Detroit metropolitan area and our corporate headquarters in Maumee. We provide this benefit to Mr. Yost in lieu of relocation to the Toledo area. This benefit allows Mr. Yost to more efficiently and effectively conduct company business and to do it in a safer manner while commuting approximately three hours a day. Our former CEO, Mr. Sweetnam, also utilized automotive transportation services to and from his home in the Cleveland, Ohio metropolitan area, while he was utilizing temporary living quarters as a part of his relocation efforts.

Relocation Assistance

On a limited basis, we offer relocation benefits to our employees and new hires. The benefits under this program generally include some or all of the following benefits as needed: pre-commitment visits, miscellaneous expense allowances, tax assistance, home sale assistance, home purchase closing costs, household goods shipping, and temporary living expenses. Dana provides relocation benefits to encourage employees to relocate and to sell their homes in order to help ease and accelerate the transition time for the employee and the family and to help employees remain focused on our business rather than on personal relocation issues. Our former CEO and President, Mr. Sweetnam, utilized the relocation program during 2010.

For more information on the benefits provided to our former CEO, Mr. Sweetnam, see the “Summary Compensation Table” and related footnotes below.

Additional Benefits

We maintain a “safe harbor” 401(k) plan for our employees, including the named executive officers. We match 100% of the employee’s contributions up to 3% of compensation and 50% of the employee’s contributions from 3% to 5% of compensation; providing a maximum employer match of 4% of compensation to an employee. Matching contributions are credited to participating employees whose compensation exceeds IRS limits in the 401(k) plan.

We provide Supplemental Executive Retirement Plans (SERPs) to certain executives as part of their initial terms of employment. In most cases, the SERP benefit was offered to replace a retirement benefit that was forfeited when the executive joined Dana. For more information regarding SERPs, see the narrative following the “Nonqualified Deferred Compensation” table below.

Clawback Provisions

In order to mitigate risk to Dana of paying either annual or long term incentives based on faulty financial results, we have a policy (Clawback Policy) regarding adjustment of performance-based compensation in the event of a restatement of our financial results that provides for the Compensation Committee to review all bonuses and other compensation paid or awarded to our executive officers based on the achievement of corporate performance goals during the period covered by a restatement. If the amount of such compensation paid or payable to any executive officer based on the originally reported financial results differs from the amount that would have been paid or payable based on the restated financial results, the Compensation Committee makes a recommendation to the independent members of the Board as to whether to seek recovery from the officer of any compensation exceeding that to which he or she would have been entitled based on the restated results or to pay to the officer additional amounts to which he or she would have been entitled based on the restated results, as the case may be.

Impact of Accounting and Tax Treatments

Deductibility of Executive Compensation

Our objective is to comply with Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code (Code) (which generally disallows deductions for compensation payable to certain named executive officers in excess of $1,000,000 per year per officer, unless the compensation is performance-based), unless the Compensation Committee

XBRL Paragraph Pagebreak XBRL Pagebreak Begin

17

END PAGE WIDTH PAGEBREAK

Table of Contents

BEGIN PAGE WIDTH XBRL Pagebreak End

determines that it is in our best interest in unique circumstances to provide compensation that is not tax-deductible. From time to time, the Compensation Committee approves compensation that does not meet the Section 162(m) requirements in order to ensure competitive levels of compensation for our senior executives or to recognize unique contributions and accomplishments. For 2010, a portion of the compensation shown in the Summary Compensation Table for Messrs. Devine, Sweetnam, Marcin, Wallace and Bryant in excess of $1,000,000 was not deductible for federal income tax purposes.

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

We account for stock-based payments under our equity-based plans in accordance with the requirements of FASB ASC Topic 718 (formerly SFAS No. 123(R)). Further information about this accounting treatment can be found in Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Dana’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT

The Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis (CD&A) with management. Based on this review and discussion, the Compensation Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the CD&A be included in this Proxy Statement and incorporated by reference into our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

performance period, the actual payout was 103% of target based
on 2010 performance against established metrics. Refer to the

three tranches (2010, 2011, and 2012), each calculated
independently and banked until the units cliff vest at the end
of the three-year period. For the 2010 performance period, 103%

2008 Dana Holding Corporation Omnibus Incentive Plan. The 2008 Dana Holding Corporation Omnibus Incentive Plan (the Plan) is administered by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee may grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance awards and other stock-based and non-stock based awards under the Plan.

The maximum number of shares of Dana’s common stock available under the Plan is 16,090,000 shares. Any shares related to awards that terminate or are forfeited are added back to the pool. The aggregate number of shares of common stock actually issued or transferred by Dana upon the exercise of incentive stock options may not exceed 4,000,000 shares. We have not granted any incentive stock options under the Plan. Further, no participant may be granted option rights or appreciation rights for more than 2,000,000 shares of common stock during any calendar year, subject to adjustments as provided in the Plan. In no event may any participant receive restricted shares, restricted stock units or performance shares in the aggregate for more than 1,000,000 shares of common stock during any calendar year, or receive an award of performance units having an aggregate maximum value as of their respective dates of grant in excess of $10,000,000. The maximum number of shares that may be granted under the Plan is subject to adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits, combinations of shares, recapitalizations, mergers, consolidations, spin-offs, reorganizations, liquidations, issuances of rights or warrants, and similar events. No grants may be made under the Plan after December 25, 2017.

Under the Plan, the Board of Directors may also, in its discretion, authorize the granting to non-employee directors of option rights and appreciation rights and may also authorize the grant of other types of awards. Upon a change in control of Dana, except as otherwise provided in the terms of the award or as provided by the Compensation Committee, to the extent outstanding awards are not assumed, converted or replaced by the resulting entity, all outstanding awards that may be exercised will become fully exercisable, all restrictions with respect to outstanding awards will lapse and become fully vested and non-forfeitable, and any specified performance measures with respect to outstanding awards will be deemed to be satisfied at target levels.

Retirement Plans

Mr. Yost is eligible to receive a non-qualified supplement retirement benefit under his supplemental executive retirement plan that was created when he became our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer in May 2008. Under the terms of Mr. Yost’s supplemental executive retirement plan, Dana created a notional defined contribution account that is unfunded and subject to the claims of Dana’s general creditors. Dana credits Mr. Yost’s account as follows: (a) 20% of Mr. Yost’s annual base pay; and (b) 20% of Mr. Yost’s annual incentive plan award; less (c) the basic credit provided to Mr. Yost under Dana’s Retirement Savings Plan (401(k)) plan (without regard to any matching contributions). Dana credits the accumulated balance in his account with an annualized return of 5% compounded annually. Once Mr. Yost satisfies a three-year vesting requirement, he will be eligible to receive the accumulated balance of his account when his employment with Dana ceases. Additionally, after three years of service with Dana, or when, if earlier, while employed by Dana, Mr. Yost: (a) dies; (b) becomes disabled; (c) is terminated without cause; or (d) resigns for good reason, Mr. Yost’s interest in his account will vest and the accumulated balance will be payable to him (or his beneficiary in the event of death) in a lump sum amount on his termination of employment.

EXECUTIVE AGREEMENTS

We entered into initial executive employment agreements with Messrs. Devine and Marcin in April 2008. As described above in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section, we extended and amended these agreements by executing new executive employment agreements with Messrs. Devine and Marcin effective January 1, 2009. On January 1, 2010, Dana and Mr. Devine extended his executive employment agreement for an additional term. We entered into an executive employment agreement with Mr. Sweetnam in July 2009 and Mr. Yost in May 2008.

John Devine

In connection with Mr. Devine’s service as Executive Chairman, Dana executed an executive employment agreement effective January 1, 2010 which expired on December 31, 2010. Our Board of Directors approved the following compensation arrangement:

• a 2010 annual target bonus of 150% of his annual base salary;
• executive severance including base salary through
December 31, 2010 and eligibility for full-year bonus,
based on actual results and paid when senior executives receive
their bonus; and
• reimbursement for cost of travel from his home residence via
commercial aircraft and corresponding tax gross up.

As described in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section above, our Board of Directors approved the following compensation for Mr. Devine in connection with his appointment as Interim CEO in November 2010:

• participation in Dana’s relocation program;
• for the purpose of compensating Mr. Sweetnam for a lost

POTENTIAL PAYMENTS AND BENEFITS UPON TERMINATION OR CHANGE IN CONTROL

As discussed in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section above, Dana adopted an Executive Severance Plan that applies to certain senior executives, including our named executive officers. During 2008, Messrs. Devine and Marcin waived change in control payments they might be entitled to under the Executive Severance Plan described below. As discussed above under the caption “Executive Agreements”, these two executives were parties to executive employment agreements during 2010 with Dana containing the potential payments and benefits they are eligible for upon termination or change in control which are discussed below.

Set forth below is a description of our Executive Severance Plan (applicable to eligible executive officers, including named executive officers, but excluding Messrs. Devine and Marcin as to “change in control” provisions) as well as a description of the severance agreement with Mr. Sweetnam. This is followed by tables relating to Messrs. Devine, Yost, Marcin, Wallace and Bryant.

Executive Severance

Change in Control. All eligible executive officers, except our CEO, who incur a qualifying termination will be entitled to receive two years of salary and twice his or her target bonus for the year in which termination occurs. Our CEO (excluding Mr. Devine as Interim CEO) is entitled to receive three years of salary and three times his target bonus for the year in which termination occurs. In addition, each named executive officer will be entitled to: (1) the full amount of any earned but unpaid base salary through the date of termination plus a cash payment for all unused vacation time accrued as of the termination date; (2) a pro rata portion of his or her annual bonus for the year in which termination occurs; (3) all equity awards which will vest in full and become fully exercisable as of the termination date; (4) any actual award credited to an eligible employee in connection with Dana’s performance awards all of which vest in full as of date of termination; (5) a lump sum cash amount to allow, but not require, the employee to purchase additional coverage equal to a total of two years (three years for our CEO) of subsidized COBRA; (6) the employee assistance program; (7) reasonable costs of outplacement services not to exceed $25,000 ($50,000 for our CEO).

Our Executive Severance Plan included a conditional excise tax gross-up provision such that if the executive incurred any excise tax by reason of his or her receipt of any payment that constituted an excess parachute payment, as defined in Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code, the executive would be entitled to a gross-up payment only if the aggregate excess parachute payments exceeded 120% of the respective Section 280G limit. The amount of the gross-up payment would place the executive in the same after-tax position he or she would have been in had no excise tax applied. Under the plan, Dana is required to reduce the executive’s change in control benefits by up to 20% of the Section 280G limit if doing so avoids imposition of the Section 280G excise tax for the executive.

In July 2009, executives who were eligible for the change in control benefit voluntarily waived the excise tax gross up provision. All named executive officers who were eligible for the benefit voluntarily waived the gross up provision with the exception of Mr. Yost whose terms of employment include this benefit. As a result, any eligible executive officers (other than Mr. Yost) would receive the better of the following change in control payments on an after-tax basis: i) change in control payment less excise tax (paid by executive), if the

XBRL Paragraph Pagebreak XBRL Pagebreak Begin

Table of Contents

BEGIN PAGE WIDTH XBRL Pagebreak End

payment is deemed to be an excess parachute payment, and less other applicable income taxes or ii) change in control payment reduced to an amount such that an excise tax payment is not in effect, less other applicable income taxes. If the excess parachute amount is not triggered, the change in control payment is not affected by any excise tax.

Regular Severance Pay. In the event any eligible executive officer, except our CEO, is involuntarily terminated by Dana without cause and such termination occurs prior to a change in control date, Dana will pay the executive an amount based on his or her annual base salary in effect on the date of termination for a period of 12 months. Our CEO (excluding Mr. Devine as Interim CEO) is entitled to receive an amount based on his annual base salary in effect on the date of termination for a period of 24 months. The Executive Severance Plan contains an offset provision to prevent executives with severance provisions under an employment agreement from receiving double benefits.

Additionally, the executive, except our CEO, for a period of 12 months beginning on the employment termination date will continue to participate in or receive reimbursement for (i) the employee assistance program; and (ii) reasonable costs of outplacement services, subject to a maximum amount of $25,000. Our CEO (excluding Mr. Devine as Interim CEO) will continue to participate in or receive reimbursement for (i) the employee assistance program; and (ii) reasonable costs of outplacement services, subject to a maximum amount of $50,000 for a period of 24 months beginning on the employment termination date.

In addition to the benefits provided above, the executive will receive a lump sum cash amount to allow, but not require, the employee to purchase additional coverage equal to a total of one year (two years for our CEO (excluding Mr. Devine as Interim CEO)) of subsidized COBRA.

James Sweetnam 2010 Severance

In connection with his departure in November 2010, Mr. Sweetnam was entitled to the following benefits under the term of his executive employment agreement:

| • | a severance payment of $2,000,000 paid in monthly installments
beginning in January 2011 through October 2012; |
| --- | --- |
| • | a prorated 2010 annual bonus; |
| • | a supplemental benefit of $733,333 payable in two equal
installments on July 1, 2011 and July 1, 2012; |
| • | a series of cash installment payments sufficient to pay COBRA
continuation premiums on a monthly basis (less the amount of the
required monthly employee contribution); |
| • | a $50,000 payment in lieu of outplacement benefits; |
| • | a $25,000 payment as reimbursement for relocation costs; and |
| • | accelerated vesting of the stock option award and restricted
stock unit award granted upon Mr. Sweetnam’s
employment with Dana. |

| (3) | Mr. Yost would have been
eligible for a separation payment equal to the sum of his annual
base salary and the target bonus multiplied by 2 (total of
$2,184,000). Since Mr. Yost’s change in control
benefit exceeded the Section 280G excise tax limit, his
severance payment was reduced to $1,454,391 based on best net

coverage provided by Dana. For a Change In Control,
Mr. Yost would receive a lump sum cash payment in the

scenarios, Mr. Yost would receive a lump sum cash payment
in the amount of the difference of his employee premium share

PROPOSAL I SUBMITTED FOR YOUR VOTE

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Under our Bylaws, each director will hold office on the Board until the election and qualification of a successor at an annual meeting of shareholders or until his earlier resignation, disqualification, removal, death or other cause.

Election of Three Board Members by Series A Preferred Holders

Pursuant to our Restated Certificate of Incorporation and the Shareholders Agreement dated January 31, 2008, among Dana and Centerbridge (Shareholders Agreement), as long as shares of Series A Preferred having an aggregate Series A Liquidation Preference (as defined in the Shareholders Agreement) of at least $125 million are owned by Centerbridge, our Board will consist of nine members and Centerbridge will be entitled, voting as a separate class, to elect three directors at each meeting of shareholders held for the purpose of electing directors, at least one of whom must be “independent” of both Dana and Centerbridge, as defined under the rules of the NYSE. In case of any removal, either with or without cause, of a director elected by the holders of the shares of Series A Preferred, the holders of the shares of Series A Preferred will be entitled, voting as a separate class, either by written consent or at a special meeting or next regular meeting, to elect a successor to hold office for the unexpired term of the director who has been removed. Please note that due to the recent resignation of Mr. Sweetnam, the Board currently consists of eight directors. The Board is actively seeking to identify an appropriately qualified individual to fill this open position.

Centerbridge has indicated to Dana that it intends to elect Mark T. Gallogly, David P. Trucano and Mark A. Schulz as members of our Board of Directors at this year’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Each of the nominees has consented to his nomination and has agreed to serve as a director of Dana, if elected.

Election of Directors

Series A Nominee for Election to Board of Directors

In addition, pursuant to the Shareholders Agreement, prior to any shareholder meeting where directors will be elected, Dana must establish a nominating committee (the Series A Nominating Committee) which is separate from the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of our Board. The Series A Nominating Committee consists of three directors, two of whom are Centerbridge designated directors. The Series A Nominating Committee is entitled to nominate one director for election by our shareholders (Series A Nominee); provided, however, that, in order for such nomination to be effective, the nomination by the Series A Nominating Committee must be unanimously approved by members of the Series A Nominating Committee. To the extent the members of the Series A Nominating Committee are unable to unanimously agree on the identity of a Series A Nominee on or before the latest time at which Dana can reasonably meet its obligations with respect to printing and mailing a proxy statement for an annual meeting of our shareholders, the Board will designate a committee of all of the independent directors, which committee will, by a majority vote, select an individual nominee for the Board seat. Each Series A Nominee will, at all times during his or her service on the Board, be qualified to serve as a director of Dana under any applicable law, rule or regulation imposing or creating standards or eligibility criteria for individuals serving as directors of organizations such as Dana and will be an independent director.

Each elected Series A Nominee will serve until his or her successor is elected and qualified or until his or her earlier resignation, retirement, disqualification, removal from office or death. If any Series A Nominee ceases to be a director of Dana for any reason, Dana will promptly use its best efforts to cause a person designated by the Series A Nominating Committee to replace such director.

The Series A Nominating Committee consisted of Mark T. Gallogly, David P. Trucano and John M. Devine. The Series A Nominating Committee has selected Richard F. Wallman as its nominee to be elected to our Board of Directors. Mr. Wallman has consented to his nomination and has agreed to serve as a director of Dana, if elected.

Election of Majority of Members of Dana’s Board of Directors

The majority of the members of our Board are elected by the holders of shares of common stock and any other class of capital stock entitled to vote in the election of directors (including the Series A Preferred and Series B Preferred), voting together as a single class at each meeting of shareholders held for the purpose of electing directors. Our Board currently consists of eight directors due to of the recent resignation of Mr. Sweetnam from our Board. This year you are voting on five candidates for the Board of Directors. The Board is actively evaluating a director candidate for the vacant position created when Mr. Sweetnam resigned. Once the Board identifies an appropriately qualified individual, it will appoint the new Board member at that time. Based on the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, the Board has nominated the current Directors for election: John M. Devine, Terrence J. Keating, Joseph C. Muscari and Keith E. Wandell as well as Richard F. Wallman who is the Series A Nominee. Each of the nominees has consented to his nomination and has agreed to serve as a director of Dana, if elected.

The Board has adopted Director Selection and Retention Guidelines . Under these Guidelines, the Board identifies individuals qualified to become members of the Board and elects candidates to fill new or vacant positions. Potential candidates for Board positions are identified through a variety of means, including individuals identified by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, the use of search firms, recommendations of Board members, recommendations of executive officers and properly submitted shareholder recommendations. Potential candidates for nomination as director candidates must provide written information about their qualifications and participate in interviews conducted by individual Board members. Candidates are evaluated using the guidelines described below to determine their qualifications based on the information supplied by the candidates and information obtained from other sources.

The Board will consider shareholder recommendations for directors that meet the criteria set forth below. The Board makes no distinctions in evaluating nominees for positions on the Board based on whether or not a nominee is recommended by a shareholder, provided that the procedures with respect to nominations are followed. As stated above, shareholders who wish to have their recommendations for director nominee considered must comply with applicable laws and regulations, as well as Dana’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws and Shareholders Agreement. Shareholders who wish Dana to consider their recommendations for nominees for the position of director should submit their recommendations in writing to Dana Holding Corporation, 3939 Technology Drive, Maumee, Ohio 43537, Attention: Corporate Secretary, by the deadline set forth in the ‘Questions and Answers’ section above.

Neither Dana’s Board nor the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has adopted a specific diversity policy with respect to indentifying nominees for director. However, Dana has established criteria it considers when it is evaluating a potential candidate. Criteria for assessing nominees include a potential nominee’s ability to represent the long term interests of Dana. Minimum qualifications for a director nominee are experience in those areas that the Board determines are necessary and appropriate to meet the needs of Dana, including leadership positions in public companies, large or middle market businesses, or not-for-profit, governmental, professional or educational organizations. For those proposed director nominees who meet the minimum qualifications, the Board assesses the proposed nominee’s specific qualifications, evaluates his or her independence (including, but not limited to, independence related to Dana, other Board members and shareholders), and considers other factors, including skills, business segment representation, geographic location, diversity, standards of integrity, memberships on other boards (with a special focus on director interlocks), and ability and willingness to commit to serving on the Board for an extended period of time and to dedicate adequate time and attention to the affairs of Dana as necessary to properly discharge his or her duties. Additionally, the Board considers whether each nominee would be considered a “financial expert” or “financially literate” as described in applicable listing standards, legislation and our Audit Committee guidelines.

Additionally, our Corporate Governance Guidelines, Standards of Business Conduct for Members of the Board of Directors, Related-Party Transactions Policy and the Director Independence Standards are considered prior to making a recommendation to the Board for approval of a nominee. Each of these documents is available on Dana’s website at www.dana.com.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Our Board of Directors has established guidelines that it follows in matters of corporate governance. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines describe our corporate governance practices and address corporate governance issues such as Board composition and responsibilities, compensation of directors and executive succession planning. The following summary provides highlights of those guidelines. A complete copy of our Corporate Governance Guidelines is available online at http://www.dana.com.

Role of Board

The business of Dana is conducted by its employees, managers and corporate officers led by our CEO, with oversight from the Board. The Board selects the CEO and works with the CEO to elect/appoint other corporate officers who are charged with managing the business of Dana. The Board has the responsibility of overseeing, counseling and directing the corporate officers to ensure that the long term interests of Dana and its shareholders are being served. The Board and the corporate officers recognize that the long term interests of Dana and its shareholders are advanced when they take into account the concerns of employees, customers, suppliers and communities.

Responsibilities of the Board

The basic responsibility of our directors is to exercise their reasonable business judgment on behalf of Dana. In discharging this obligation, directors rely on, among other things, Dana’s corporate officers, outside advisors and auditors.

Pursuant to the Board’s general oversight responsibilities, among other things, the Board:

| • | Evaluates the CEO’s performance and reviews Dana’s
succession plan for the CEO and other officers; |
| --- | --- |
| • | Reviews the long-range business plans of Dana and monitors
performance relative to achievement of those plans; |
| • | Considers long-range strategic issues and risks to Dana; and |
| • | Approves policies of corporate conduct that continue to promote
and maintain the integrity of Dana. |

In addition, the Board evaluates the content and operation of Dana’s ethics and compliance program, and exercises reasonable oversight with respect to its implementation and effectiveness.

Executive Sessions of the Board

Executive sessions of our non-management directors are held, without Dana management, in conjunction with each regularly scheduled Board meeting and between such Board meetings as requested, from time to time, by the Lead Independent Director or other non-management directors. These sessions are chaired by the Lead Independent Director.

Lead Independent Director

Our Board annually appoints a lead director from among the independent directors (currently Mr. Wandell) (the Lead Independent Director). The Lead Independent Director may call meetings of the independent directors from time to time, and has the following duties and responsibilities:

| • | to preside at all meetings of the Board at which the Executive
Chairman is not present, including any executive sessions of the
independent directors; |
| --- | --- |
| • | to serve as the liaison between the Executive Chairman and the
independent directors; |
| • | to coordinate the activities of the independent directors; |
| • | to develop the agenda for the executive sessions and other
meetings of the independent directors; |
| • | to advise the Executive Chairman regarding the timing,
scheduling, structuring, and agenda of Board meetings; |
| • | to consult with and provide feedback to the Executive Chairman
regarding matters discussed in executive sessions and other
Board matters as appropriate; |
| • | to advise the Executive Chairman regarding the flow of
information from management to the Board; and |
| • | to be available to the independent directors for discussion of
Board or other matters. |

Access to Management and the Independent Auditors

Our non-management directors may meet with senior management, other employees and the independent auditors at any time, either separately or jointly, as they deem appropriate. Senior personnel of Dana and of the independent auditors regularly attend portions of our Board and Committee meetings, and other personnel may be invited to attend particular meetings where appropriate.

Board Performance Assessment

The Board conducts an annual self-evaluation to determine whether it and its committees are functioning effectively. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews the self-evaluation process. An annual report is made to the Board on the assessment of the performance of the Board and its committees. The assessment evaluates the contribution of the Board and its committees to Dana and specifically focuses on areas in which the Board or management believes that the Board or its committees could improve.

SELECTION OF CHAIRMAN AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER; SUCCESSION PLANNING

On an interim basis, our Board has combined the role of Chairman of the Board and the role of CEO as the result of the recent resignation of our former CEO Mr. Sweetnam. Mr. Devine, our current Executive Chairman and Interim CEO, has served as our Executive Chairman since Dana exited from bankruptcy in January 2008. In addition, during this period, he has also served as acting CEO on two separate occasions as the Board conducted a search for a permanent CEO. The Board currently believes combining these two positions on an interim basis provides an efficient and effective leadership model for Dana. As the Board conducts its search for a long term CEO, Mr. Devine, a seasoned automotive veteran, is able to provide a wealth of knowledge and experience in addition to the unique ability to assume the role of CEO immediately, allowing the Board to focus on its CEO search. Importantly, Mr. Devine provides stability and continuity at

XBRL Paragraph Pagebreak XBRL Pagebreak Begin

Dana during this transition period. To assure effective independent oversight, as described above, our Board has adopted a number of governance practices, including:

| • | a strong, independent, clearly-defined Lead Independent Director
role; |
| --- | --- |
| • | regular executive sessions of the independent directors without
management; and |
| • | annual performance evaluations of the Executive Chairman and CEO
by the independent directors. |

Our Board recognizes no single leadership model is right for all companies and at all times. Our Board believes that depending on the circumstances, other leadership models might be appropriate. As a result, our Board periodically reviews its leadership structure.

A key responsibility of the CEO and our Board is ensuring that an effective process is in place to provide continuity of leadership over the long term at all levels of Dana. Each year, succession planning reviews are held at every significant organizational level of Dana, culminating in a full review of senior leadership talent. During this review, the CEO and the Board discuss future candidates for senior leadership positions, succession timing for those positions, and development plans for the highest-potential candidates. This process ensures continuity of leadership over the long term, and it forms the basis on which Dana makes ongoing leadership assignments.

RISK OVERSIGHT

Dana maintains a risk management program overseen by our executive committee. In particular, our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer; Vice President, Audit; and Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary have responsibility for this area. In addition, our Product Group Presidents and functional leads oversee strategic and operational risks. Risks are identified and prioritized by our management, and each of these risks is reviewed by the Audit Committee or the entire Board. For example, strategic risks are overseen by the entire Board and financial risks are overseen by our Audit Committee. Management regularly reports on each such risk to our entire Board or Audit Committee. Additional review or reporting on risks is conducted as needed or as requested by the Board or any committee. Also, our Compensation Committee periodically reviews the most important risks to ensure that compensation programs do not encourage excessive risk-taking and has implemented several mechanisms to avoid such risk taking behavior, as detailed in the “Mitigation of Potential Risk in Pay Programs” and “Clawback Provisions” sections above.

COMMITTEES AND MEETINGS OF DIRECTORS

The Board has several committees, as set forth in the following chart and described below. The names of the directors serving on the committees and the committee chairs are also set forth in the chart. The current terms of the various committee members expire in April 2011.

public accounting firm’s qualifications and independence; (iv) the performance of Dana’s internal audit function and independent registered public accounting firm; and (v) the preparation of the “Audit Committee Report” found in this proxy statement. None of the members of the Audit Committee serves on the audit committees of more than four public companies. The Board of Directors has determined that all of the members of the Audit Committee are independent within the meaning of those independence requirements established from time to time by the Board and the SEC and the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange (see “Director Independence and Transactions of Directors with Dana” section in this proxy statement). The current members of our Audit Committee are Mr. Wallman (Chairman), Mr. Keating, Mr. Schulz and Mr. Trucano. Our Board has determined that Mr. Wallman is an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act. A current copy of the charter of the Audit Committee is available to security holders on Dana’s website at www.dana.com. The Audit Committee met seven times in 2010.

Compensation Committee. This committee establishes Dana’s executive compensation policies and programs, administers Dana’s 401(k), stock, incentive, and retirement plans and monitors compliance with laws and regulations applicable to the documentation and administration of Dana’s employee benefit plans, among other things. The Board of Directors has determined that all of the members of the Compensation Committee are independent, pursuant to independence requirements established from time to time by the Board and the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange (see the “Director Independence and Transactions of Directors with Dana” section in this proxy statement). A current copy of the charter of the Compensation Committee is available to security holders on Dana’s website at www.dana.com. The Compensation Committee met four times in 2010. See the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section above for more information.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. This committee monitors the effectiveness of the Board and oversees corporate governance issues. Among its various other duties, this committee reviews and recommends to the full Board candidates to become Board members, develops and administers performance criteria for members of the Board, and oversees matters relating to the size of the Board, its committee structure and assignments, and the conduct and frequency of Board meetings. The Board of Directors has determined that all of the members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are independent, pursuant to independence requirements established from time to time by the Board and the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange (see the “Director Independence and Transactions of Directors with Dana” section of this proxy statement). A current copy of the charter of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is available to security holders on Dana’s website at www.dana.com. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee met three times in 2010.

Board and Committee Meetings. There were eight regular meetings of the Board and fourteen meetings of the various committees of the Board, and no unanimous written consents, during 2010. All directors attended at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the aggregate number of meetings held by the Board and all the committees of the Board on which the respective directors served. Dana expects all of its directors to attend the Annual Meeting except in cases of illness, emergency or other reasonable grounds for non-attendance.

NON-MANAGEMENT DIRECTORS AND COMMUNICATION WITH THE BOARD

The non-management directors meet at regularly scheduled executive sessions without management. Keith E. Wandell is the lead director at such sessions. Interested parties may communicate directly with Mr. Wandell or with the non-management directors as a group by sending written correspondence, delivered via United States mail or courier service, to: Secretary of the Board, Dana Holding Corporation, 3939 Technology Drive, Maumee, Ohio, 43537, Attn: Non-Management Directors. Alternatively, shareholders may send communications to the full Board by sending written correspondence, delivered via United States mail or courier service, to: Secretary of the Board, Dana Holding Corporation, 3939 Technology Drive, Maumee, Ohio, 43537, Attn: Full Board of Directors. The Board of Directors’ current practice is that the Secretary may

relay proper communications received to the lead director in the case of communications to non-management directors, and to the Executive Chairman of the Board in the case of communications to the full Board.

DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE AND TRANSACTIONS OF DIRECTORS WITH DANA

Independence and Transactions of Directors

The Board of Directors has determined that all non-management directors, constituting 87.5% of the full Board of Directors of Dana, are independent within the meaning of the listing standards of the NYSE. Our Board determines whether each director qualifies as an “independent director” when first elected to the Board and annually thereafter. To assist in making these determinations of independence, Dana adopted categorical standards set forth in our Director Independence Standards , a current copy of which is available to security holders on Dana’s website at www.dana.com.

Under our Director Independence Standards , if a director has a relationship with Dana (either directly or as a partner, shareholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with Dana), the Board considers all relevant facts and circumstances in determining whether the relationship will interfere with the exercise of the director’s independence from Dana and our management, taking into account, among other things, the significance of the relationship to Dana, to the director, and to the persons or organizations with which the director is affiliated.

In connection with making its director independence determinations, the Board specifically considered the following relationships and transactions:

David P. Trucano is a member of our Board of Directors and also is an employee of Centerbridge. Mark T. Gallogly is also a member of our Board of Directors and is a Managing Principal and owner of an equity interest in Centerbridge. As described above, Centerbridge is a Dana shareholder, is entitled to elect three directors to our Board and has certain approval rights set forth in our Restated Certificate of Incorporation and the Shareholders Agreement.

The Board has affirmatively determined that the following directors, constituting a majority of our Board of Directors, meet the categorical standards for independence and that such directors have no material relationship with Dana (either directly or as a partner, shareholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with Dana) other than as a director: Mark T. Gallogly, Terrence J. Keating, Joseph C. Muscari, Mark A. Schulz, David P. Trucano, Keith E. Wandell and Richard F. Wallman. The Board has further determined that John M. Devine is not independent because he is an employee of Dana.

Review of Transactions With Related Persons

Dana has procedures and policies for reviewing transactions between Dana and its directors and executive officers, their immediate family members and entities with which they have a position or relationship. These procedures are intended to determine whether any such transaction impairs the independence of a director or presents a conflict of interest on the part of a director or executive officer.

Annually, each director and executive officer is required to complete a director, director nominee and executive officer questionnaire, and each non-management director is required to complete an independence certification. Both of these documents elicit information about related person transactions. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board of Directors annually review the transactions and relationships disclosed in the questionnaire and certification, prior to the Board of Directors making a formal determination regarding the directors’ independence. To assist them in their review, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board of Directors use the categorical standards found in Dana’s Director Independence Standards , as discussed above.

In order to monitor transactions that occur between the annual reviews, the independence certification also obligates the directors to immediately notify our General Counsel in writing if they discover that any statement in the certification was untrue or incomplete when made, or if any statement in the certification

XBRL Paragraph Pagebreak XBRL Pagebreak Begin

42

END PAGE WIDTH PAGEBREAK

Table of Contents

BEGIN PAGE WIDTH XBRL Pagebreak End

becomes subsequently untrue or incomplete. Likewise, under our Standards of Business Conduct for the Board of Directors , any situation that involves, or may involve, a conflict of interest with Dana is required to be promptly disclosed to the Executive Chairman of the Board, who will consult with the Chairman of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Executive officers are bound by the Standards of Business Conduct for Employees .

Our Board has adopted a Related-Party Transactions Policy that sets forth standards with respect to related party transactions with Dana or our subsidiaries. A current copy of this policy is available to shareholders on Dana’s website at www.dana.com.

Under the Related-Party Transactions Policy , (i) a director, nominee for director or executive officer of Dana (since the beginning of the last fiscal year), (ii) any beneficial holder of greater than five percent (5%) of Dana’s voting securities or (iii) any immediate family member of any of the foregoing, are required to seek the prior approval of the Audit Committee of any transaction, arrangement or relationship or series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships (including any indebtedness or guarantee of indebtedness) in which (i) the aggregate amount involved will or may reasonably be expected to exceed $120,000 in any calendar year, (ii) Dana, or any of its subsidiaries is a participant, and (iii) any related party has or will have a direct or indirect interest (other than solely as a result of being a director or a less than 10% beneficial owner of another entity).

In making its determination, the Audit Committee considers such factors as (i) the extent of the related party’s interest in the interested transaction, (ii) if applicable, the availability of other sources of comparable products or services, (iii) whether the terms of the interested transaction are fair to Dana and no less favorable than terms generally available in unaffiliated third-party transactions under like circumstances, (iv) whether the interested transaction would impair the independence of an outside director, (v) the benefit to Dana, and (vi) whether the interested transaction is material, taking into account: (a) the importance of the interest to the related party, (b) the relationship of the related party to the interested transaction and of the related parties to each other, (c) the dollar amount involved, and (d) the significance of the transaction to Dana’s investors in light of all the circumstances.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, our Board may determine certain interested transactions deemed to be pre-approved, even if the aggregate amount involved will exceed $120,000. Those pre-approved transactions are described in the Related-Party Transactions Policy .

All interested transactions, except those pre-approved, must be disclosed in Dana’s applicable SEC filings as and to the extent required by applicable SEC rules and regulations.

The questionnaire, certification, Standards of Director Independence , Standards of Business Conduct for the Board of Directors , Standards of Business Conduct for Employees , and Related-Party Transactions Policy are all in writing.

The Board specifically considered the following relationships and transactions in 2010:

David P. Trucano is a member of our Board of Directors and also is an employee of Centerbridge. Mark T. Gallogly is also a member of our Board of Directors and also is a Managing Principal and owner of an equity interest in Centerbridge. As previously disclosed, Centerbridge owns 2.5 million shares of our Series A Preferred.

In March 2008, Dana and Centerbridge agreed to jointly employ an individual selected by Centerbridge. This individual worked directly with our senior management and Centerbridge’s team as a leader in implementing our Dana Operating System. During this project, he commuted from his out of state residence to our headquarters, where he spent four days per week less any days spent traveling to other company locations. The salary paid to this individual during 2010 was $117,000 and he received a discretionary bonus of $562,500. Compensation paid and expense reimbursement to this employee was shared by Centerbridge which paid 10% and 90% paid directly by Dana. This relationship terminated during 2010.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

During 2010, Messrs. Wandell, Muscari, Schulz and Trucano served as members of the Compensation Committee. Mr. York served as a member of the Committee until his unexpected death in March 2010. No such member of the Compensation Committee is, or was during 2010, an officer or employee of Dana or any of its subsidiaries, nor was any such member formerly an officer of Dana or any of its subsidiaries.

As stated above, Mr. Trucano is an employee of Centerbridge which owns 2.5 million shares of our Series A Preferred. Additionally, as noted above, Centerbridge and Dana jointly paid an employee selected by Centerbridge who worked directly with our senior management and Centerbridge’s team as a leader in implementing our Dana Operating System.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee makes a recommendation to our Board of Directors regarding the form and amount of non-employee director compensation. In determining the recommendation for director compensation, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers the recommendations of our Executive Chairman, CEO and CAO, as well as information provided by Mercer.

The table below illustrates the compensation structure for non-employee directors in 2010. Employee Directors receive no compensation for their Board service. In addition to the compensation described below, each Director is reimbursed for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred for travel and attendance related to meetings of the Board of Directors or its committees.

Footnote :

(1) Mr. Trucano is an employee of Centerbridge and Mr. Gallogly is a Managing Principal and owner of an equity interest in Centerbridge. Centerbridge owns 100% of our Series A Preferred which is convertible into approximately 20,955,574 shares of our common stock. Messrs. Gallogly and Trucano each disclaim beneficial ownership of all such shares, except to the extent of their respective pecuniary interest therein. No other Director or executive officer of Dana is a beneficial owner of Series A Preferred.

SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires that Dana’s directors, executive officers and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of Dana’s equity securities file reports of stock ownership and any subsequent changes in stock ownership with the SEC and the New York Stock Exchange not later than specified deadlines. Based solely on its review of the copies of such reports received by it, or written representations from certain reporting persons, Dana believes that, during the year ended December 31, 2010, each of its executive officers, directors and greater than ten percent shareholders complied with all such applicable filing requirements.

PROPOSAL II SUBMITTED FOR YOUR VOTE

ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The recently enacted Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, or the Dodd-Frank Act, enables our shareholders to vote on an advisory (non-binding) basis, on our compensation policies and practices and the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement in accordance with the SEC’s rules.

As discussed in our Compensation Discussion and Analysis (CD&A) above, the overall objectives of Dana’s executive compensation program are to attract, motivate, reward and retain talent. We believe that in order to achieve our objectives, our compensation and benefits must be competitive with executive compensation arrangements generally provided to other executive officers at similar levels at other companies where we compete for talent. The various components of Dana’s executive compensation program are designed to:

• Align management incentives and shareholder interests;
• Motivate executive management and employees to focus on business
goals over immediate, short term and long term horizons; and
• Attract and retain executive talent.

We believe that Dana’s executive compensation programs have been effective at incenting the achievement of positive results, appropriately aligning pay and performance and in enabling Dana to attract and retain very talented executives within our industry. We encourage you to read our CD&A contained within this proxy statement for more detailed discussion of our compensation policies and procedures.

We are asking our shareholders to indicate their support for our executive compensation policies and practices as described in this proxy statement. This proposal, commonly known as a “say-on-pay” proposal, gives you as a shareholder the opportunity to express your views on our fiscal year 2010 executive compensation policies and procedures for our named executive officers. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of our named executive officers and the policies and procedures described in this proxy statement. Accordingly, we ask our shareholders to vote “FOR” the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:

RESOLVED, that the shareholders of Dana Holding Corporation (Dana) approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of Dana’s named executive officers, as disclosed in Dana’s Proxy Statement for the 2011 Annual Meeting of Shareholders pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission as set forth in Item 402 of Regulation S-K (including the Compensation Discussion & Analysis, the compensation tables and narrative discussion).

Although this is an advisory vote which will not be binding on the Compensation Committee or the Board, we will carefully review the results of the vote. The Compensation Committee will consider our shareholders’ concerns and take them into account when designing future executive compensation programs.

DANA’S BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “ FOR ” THIS ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION.

PROPOSAL III SUBMITTED FOR YOUR VOTE

ADVISORY VOTE ON THE FREQUENCY OF THE ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

In addition to the non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation, the Dodd-Frank Act also enables our shareholders to express their preference for the frequency of having an executive compensation vote. This non-binding “frequency” vote is required at least once every six years beginning with this Annual Shareholders Meeting.

The decision regarding the frequency of vote should be based on the relative benefits and burdens of each alternative. There are many views and our Board believes there is a reasonable basis for each of these options.

Many believe that an annual vote gives shareholders the opportunity to react promptly to emerging trends in compensation, provide feedback before those trends become pronounced, and give the Board the opportunity to evaluate individual compensation decisions each year in light of the ongoing feedback from shareholders. Others have argued for less frequent votes. They argue that a less frequent vote would allow shareholders to focus on overall compensation design issues rather than details of individual decisions, would align with the goal of compensation programs which are designed to reward performance that promotes long term shareholder value, and would avoid the burden that annual votes would impose on shareholders required to evaluate the compensation programs of numerous companies each year.

Our Board believes a triennial vote would align more closely with the multi-year performance measurement cycle we use to reward long-term performance. Our executive compensation programs are based on our long-term business strategy, which is more appropriately reflected with a three year timeframe. Notwithstanding the foregoing, our Board recognizes that the most strongly held view on this question currently favors an annual advisory vote. For that reason, the Board of Directors recommends a vote for the holding of advisory votes on executive compensation every year. Shareholders, however, are not voting to approve or disapprove the Board’s recommendation of an annual vote.

You may cast your vote on your preferred voting frequency by choosing the option of one year, two years, three years or abstain from voting.

While approval of the foregoing requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present or represented at the Annual Meeting, the option of one year, two years or three years that receives the highest number of votes cast by shareholders will be the frequency for the advisory vote on executive compensation that will be considered selected by shareholders. However, because this vote is advisory and not binding on the Board in any way, the Board may decide that it is in the best interests of our shareholders and Dana to hold an advisory vote on executive compensation more or less frequently than the option approved by our shareholders.

DANA’S BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS AN ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION EVERY YEAR.

PROPOSAL IV SUBMITTED FOR YOUR VOTE

RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF THE INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee of Dana has selected PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC), an independent registered public accounting firm, to audit our financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2011, and recommends that the shareholders vote for ratification of such appointment.

As a matter of good corporate governance, the selection of PwC is being submitted to the shareholders for ratification. In the event of a negative vote on such ratification, the Audit Committee will reconsider its selection. Even if PwC is ratified as the independent registered public accounting firm by the shareholders, the Audit Committee, in its discretion, may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of Dana and its shareholders. Representatives of PwC are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders and will have the opportunity to make a statement if they so desire. The representatives also are expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions from shareholders.

DANA’S BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “ FOR ” THIS PROPOSAL TO RATIFY THE APPOINTMENT OF THE INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policy

Our Audit Committee pre-approves the audit and non-audit services performed by our independent registered public accounting firm, PwC, in order to assure that the provision of such services does not impair PwC’s independence. The Audit Committee annually determines which audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other permissible non-audit services to pre-approve and creates a list of the pre-approved services and pre-approved cost levels. Unless a type of service to be provided by PwC has received general pre-approval, it requires specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee or the Audit Committee Chairman or a member whom he or she has designated. Any services exceeding pre-approved cost levels also require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee. Management monitors the services rendered by PwC and the fees paid for the audit, audit-related, tax and other pre-approved services and reports to the Audit Committee on these matters at least quarterly. We did not approve the incurrence of any fees pursuant to the exceptions to the pre-approval requirements set forth in applicable SEC disclosure rules.

The information contained in the Audit Committee Report is not deemed to be soliciting material or to be filed for purposes of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, will not be deemed incorporated by reference by any general statement incorporating the document by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, except to the extent that Dana specifically incorporates such information by reference, and will not be otherwise deemed filed under such acts.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The Audit Committee oversees Dana’s financial reporting process on behalf of the Board of Directors and is comprised only of outside directors who are independent within the meaning of, and meet the experience requirements of, the applicable rules of the New York Stock Exchange and the SEC. In addition to its duties regarding oversight of Dana’s financial reporting process, including as it relates to the integrity of the financial statements, the independent registered public accounting firm’s qualifications and independence and the performance of the independent registered public accounting firm and Dana’s internal audit function, the Audit Committee also has sole authority to appoint or replace the independent registered public accounting firm and is directly responsible for the compensation and oversight of the work of the independent registered public accounting firm as provided in Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Audit Committee Charter, which was adopted and approved by the Board, specifies the scope of the Audit Committee’s responsibilities and the manner in which it carries out those responsibilities. Management has primary responsibility for the financial statements, reporting processes and system of internal controls. In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, among other things, the Audit Committee reviewed the audited financial statements included in Dana’s Annual Report on Form 10-K with management and the independent registered public accounting firm, including a discussion of the quality, not just the acceptability, of the accounting principles, reasonableness of significant judgments, and clarity of disclosures in the financial statements and a discussion of related controls, procedures, compliance and other matters.

Audit Committee discussions with the independent registered public accounting firm included those required under auditing standards generally accepted in the United States, including Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, Communication With Audit Committees, as amended, as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, and Statement on Auditing Standards No. 90, Audit Committee Communications. Further, the Audit Committee has received and reviewed the written disclosures and the letter from the independent accountants required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB for independent auditor communications with Audit Committees concerning independence. The Audit Committee discussed with the independent auditors their independence from management and Dana, and reviewed and considered whether the provision of non-audit services and receipt of certain compensation by the independent auditors are compatible with maintaining the auditors’ independence. In addition, the Audit Committee reviewed with the independent auditors all critical accounting policies and practices to be used.

In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above and such other considerations as the Audit Committee determined to be appropriate, the Audit Committee has recommended to the Board of Directors, and the Board of Directors has approved, that the audited financial statements be included in Dana’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 for filing with the SEC.
