<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10.5pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Dear Stockholders of Cooper Tire&nbsp;&amp; Rubber Company: </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10.5pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On February&nbsp;22, 2021, Cooper Tire&nbsp;&amp; Rubber Company (&#147;Cooper Tire&#148;) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with The Goodyear
Tire&nbsp;&amp; Rubber Company (&#147;Goodyear&#148;), and Vulcan Merger Sub Inc., a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Goodyear (&#147;Merger Sub&#148;), under which, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub will
merge with and into Cooper Tire, with Cooper Tire continuing as the surviving corporation and as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Goodyear (the &#147;merger&#148;). If the merger is completed, each share of Cooper Tire common stock issued and
outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger (other than (i)&nbsp;shares of Cooper Tire common stock owned by Goodyear, Cooper Tire, Merger Sub or any of their respective direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries,
(ii)&nbsp;shares of Cooper Tire common stock held in the treasury of Cooper Tire, (iii)&nbsp;shares of Cooper Tire common stock held by Cooper Tire stockholders that vote against the adoption of the merger agreement and properly exercised their
appraisal rights under Delaware law and (iv)&nbsp;certain shares of Cooper Tire common stock subject to long-term incentive awards) will be converted into the right to receive $41.75 per share in cash and 0.907 of a share of Goodyear common stock
(as such amount may potentially be adjusted), without interest and less any applicable withholding tax. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10.5pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Based on Goodyear&#146;s closing stock price on
February&nbsp;19, 2021, the last trading day before the public announcement of the execution of the merger agreement with Goodyear, the implied cash and stock consideration to be received by Cooper Tire stockholders is $54.36 per share of Cooper
Tire common stock, which represents a premium of approximately 24% over Cooper Tire&#146;s closing stock price on February&nbsp;19, 2021. The value of the merger consideration to be received in exchange for each share of Cooper Tire common stock
will fluctuate with the market value of shares of Goodyear common stock until the transaction is complete. The common stock of Cooper Tire is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol &#147;CTB.&#148; The common stock of Goodyear is
listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol &#147;GT.&#148; Upon the completion of the merger, former Cooper Tire stockholders are expected to own approximately 16% of the then outstanding shares of Goodyear common stock, based on
Goodyear&#146;s outstanding equity as of February&nbsp;19, 2021. </P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10.5pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>The affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of
Cooper Tire common stock entitled to vote thereon is required to approve and adopt the merger agreement.</B> Because of this, Cooper Tire is holding a special meeting of its stockholders on April 30, 2021 to vote on the proposal necessary to
complete the merger. Information about the Cooper Tire special meeting, the merger, the merger agreement and the other business to be considered by Cooper Tire stockholders at the Cooper Tire special meeting is contained in this proxy
statement/prospectus. The board of directors of Cooper Tire (the &#147;Cooper Tire Board&#148;) has fixed the close of business on April 1, 2021 as the record date for the determination of Cooper Tire stockholders entitled to notice of, and to vote
at, the Cooper Tire special meeting. Any stockholder entitled to attend and vote at the Cooper Tire special meeting is entitled to appoint a proxy to attend and vote on such stockholder&#146;s behalf. Such proxy need not be a holder of Cooper Tire
common stock. We urge you to read this proxy statement/prospectus and the annexes and documents incorporated by reference carefully. <B>You should also carefully consider the risks that are described in the &#147;<A HREF="#tx104529_28">Risk

SPECIAL MEETING </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>The following questions and answers briefly address some commonly asked questions about the merger agreement, the merger, other
transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, and the Cooper Tire special meeting. They may not include all of the information that is important to Cooper Tire stockholders. Cooper Tire stockholders should carefully read this entire proxy
statement/prospectus, including the annexes and the other documents referred to or incorporated by reference in this proxy statement/prospectus. See &#147;Where You Can Find More Information&#148; beginning on page 192. </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Q: What is the merger agreement and what is the merger? </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Goodyear, Merger Sub and Cooper Tire have entered into the merger agreement. A copy of the merger agreement is attached as Annex&nbsp;A to this proxy
statement/prospectus. The merger agreement contains the terms and conditions of the proposed acquisition of Cooper Tire by Goodyear. Under the merger agreement, subject to the satisfaction (or, to the extent permitted by applicable law and in
accordance with the merger agreement, waiver) of the conditions to the merger set forth in the merger agreement and described in this proxy statement/prospectus, at the closing of the merger, Merger Sub will merge with and into Cooper Tire, with
Cooper Tire continuing as the &#147;surviving corporation&#148; and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Goodyear. </P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As a result of the merger, Cooper
Tire will become a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Goodyear and will no longer be a publicly held company. Goodyear will issue up to approximately 46.4 million shares of Goodyear common stock to Cooper Tire stockholders in the merger (including
shares of Goodyear common stock to be issued in connection with outstanding Cooper Tire long-term incentive awards). As a result of these issuances, current Goodyear shareholders and Cooper Tire stockholders are expected to hold approximately 84%
and 16%, respectively, of the outstanding shares of Goodyear common stock immediately following completion of the merger. In addition, following the merger, Cooper Tire common stock will be delisted from the NYSE and will be deregistered under the
Exchange Act, after which Cooper Tire will no longer be required under SEC rules and regulations to file periodic reports with the SEC in respect of Cooper Tire common stock. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Q: Why am&nbsp;I receiving these materials? </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Goodyear and
Cooper Tire are sending these materials to Cooper Tire stockholders to help them decide how to vote their shares of Cooper Tire common stock with respect to the merger and other matters to be considered at the Cooper Tire special meeting. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Cooper Tire common stock entitled to vote thereon is required to approve and adopt
the merger agreement. Cooper Tire is holding a special meeting of its stockholders to vote on the proposal to adopt the merger agreement and other related proposals. Information about the Cooper special meeting, the merger and the other business to
be considered by stockholders at the Cooper Tire special meeting is contained in this proxy statement/prospectus. </P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">This proxy statement/prospectus
constitutes both a proxy statement of Cooper Tire and a prospectus of Goodyear. </P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">It is a proxy statement because the Cooper Tire Board is soliciting
proxies from its stockholders to vote in favor of the proposal to adopt the merger agreement at the Cooper Tire special meeting or at any adjournment or postponement of the Cooper Tire special meeting. The Cooper Tire Board has unanimously
recommended that Cooper Tire stockholders vote in favor of the merger proposal. Cooper Tire stockholders are also being asked to vote to approve the merger-related named executive officer compensation proposal on a
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-binding</FONT> advisory basis and, if necessary or appropriate, the adjournment of the Cooper Tire special meeting. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">It is a prospectus because Goodyear will issue shares of Goodyear common stock as the stock consideration
portion of the merger consideration in exchange for outstanding shares of Cooper Tire common stock in the merger. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Q: What will Cooper Tire
stockholders receive in the merger? </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In connection with the merger, Cooper Tire stockholders will receive the merger consideration, which consists of
(i) $41.75 in cash, without interest, per share of Cooper Tire common stock (as such amount of cash may potentially be adjusted as described under the heading &#147;The Merger Agreement&#151;Merger Consideration&#151;Share Cap Adjustment&#148;, the
&#147;per share cash consideration&#148;) and (ii) 0.907 of a validly issued, fully paid and <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-assessable</FONT> share of Goodyear common stock (as such amount may potentially be adjusted as described under the

agreement as described below, the &#147;merger consideration&#148;) for each share of Cooper Tire common stock that they own immediately prior to the closing of the merger (other than (i)&nbsp;shares of Cooper Tire common stock owned by Goodyear,
Cooper Tire, Merger Sub or any of their respective direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, (ii)&nbsp;shares of Cooper Tire common stock held in the treasury of Cooper Tire, (iii)&nbsp;shares of Cooper Tire common stock held by Cooper Tire
stockholders that have not been voted for the adoption of the merger agreement and properly exercised their appraisal rights under Delaware law (&#147;dissenting shares&#148; and, together with (i)&nbsp;and (ii), &#147;cancelled shares&#148;) and
(iv)&nbsp;certain shares of Cooper Tire common stock subject to long-term incentive awards that will be treated in the manner described under the heading &#147;The Merger&#151;Treatment of Cooper Tire Stock Options and Other Long-Term Incentive
Awards&#148;). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If the merger would otherwise result in the issuance of shares of Goodyear common stock (including shares of Goodyear common stock that
would be deliverable pursuant to converted long-term incentive awards pursuant to the merger agreement) in excess of 19.9% of the outstanding shares of Goodyear common stock immediately prior to the closing of the merger (the &#147;share cap&#148;),
(i) the exchange ratio will be reduced by the smallest number (rounded up to the nearest 0.0001) that causes the total number of shares of Goodyear common stock (including shares of Goodyear common stock that would be deliverable pursuant to
converted long-term incentive awards pursuant to the merger agreement) issuable in connection with the merger to not exceed the share cap (the &#147;exchange ratio reduction number&#148;) and (ii)&nbsp;the per share cash consideration will be
increased by an amount in cash equal to (x)&nbsp;the exchange ratio reduction number multiplied by (y)&nbsp;the volume weighted average price per share of Goodyear common stock for the 10 consecutive trading days ending two trading days prior to the
closing date as reported by Bloomberg, L.P. (the &#147;parent closing price&#148;). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The exchange ratio is otherwise fixed and will not be adjusted to
reflect changes in the stock price of either company before the merger is complete. The exchange ratio will, however, be adjusted in accordance with the terms of the merger agreement to fully reflect the effect of any merger, business combination,
reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including a reverse stock split) or subdivision or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, or any stock dividend or stock distribution, with respect to outstanding shares of capital stock of
either Goodyear or Cooper Tire with a record date between the date of the merger agreement and the completion of the merger. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">No fractional shares of
Goodyear common stock will be issued in connection with the merger. Each Cooper Tire stockholder that otherwise would have been entitled to receive a fractional share of Goodyear common stock will have the right to receive an amount in cash, without
interest, rounded to the nearest cent, equal to the product of (i)&nbsp;such fractional part of a share of Goodyear common stock multiplied by (ii)&nbsp;the parent closing price, in lieu of such fractional share. Goodyear shareholders will continue
to own their existing shares of Goodyear common stock, the form of which will not be changed by the transaction. For more details on the merger consideration, see &#147;The Merger Agreement&#151;Merger Consideration&#148; beginning on page 92. </P>

half of 2021. Neither Goodyear nor Cooper Tire can predict, however, the actual date on which the transaction will be completed (or that it will be completed at all) because it is subject to conditions beyond each company&#146;s control, including
receipt of required regulatory approvals and approval of the merger proposal by Cooper Tire stockholders. See &#147;The Merger Agreement&#151;Conditions to Completion of the Merger&#148; beginning on page 120 for more information. </P>

the DGCL, will be entitled to appraisal rights in connection with the merger and, if the merger is completed, subject to the provisions of Section&nbsp;262 of the DGCL, may obtain payment in cash of the &#147;fair value&#148; of their shares of
Cooper Tire common stock as determined by the Delaware Court of Chancery, together with interest (subject to certain exceptions) to be paid on the amount determined to be the fair value, if any, instead of receiving the merger consideration for
their shares of Cooper Tire common stock. Under Section&nbsp;262 of the DGCL, assuming Cooper Tire common stock remains listed on a national securities exchange immediately prior to the effective time of the merger, the Delaware Court of Chancery
will dismiss any appraisal proceedings as to all Cooper Tire stockholders who have perfected their appraisal rights unless (i)&nbsp;the total number of such shares entitled to appraisal exceeds 1% of the outstanding shares of Cooper Tire common
stock or (ii)&nbsp;the value of the merger consideration provided in the merger agreement for such total number of shares of Cooper Tire common stock entitled to appraisal exceeds $1&nbsp;million. To exercise appraisal rights, Cooper Tire
stockholders must comply with the procedures prescribed by Section&nbsp;262 of the DGCL. See &#147;Appraisal Rights&#148; beginning on page&nbsp;154 for additional information. In addition, a copy of the full text of Section&nbsp;262 of the DGCL is

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On March 19, 2021, a purported Cooper Tire stockholder filed an action against Cooper Tire and the members of the Cooper Tire Board, captioned <I>Stein v.
Cooper Tire &amp; Rubber Company, et al.</I>, No. 1:21-cv-00407, in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware (the &#147;Stein action&#148;). On March 25, 2021, a purported Cooper Tire stockholder filed an action against Cooper
Tire and the members of the Cooper Tire Board, captioned <I>Miles v. Cooper Tire &amp; Rubber Company, et al.</I>, No. 2:21-cv-06762, in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey (the &#147;Miles action&#148;). On March 26,
2021, a purported Cooper Tire stockholder filed an action against Cooper Tire, the members of the Cooper Tire Board, Goodyear and Merger Sub, captioned <I>Griffin v. Cooper Tire &amp; Rubber Company, et al.</I>, No. 1:21-cv-00452, in the United
States District Court for the District of Delaware (the &#147;Griffin action,&#148; and together with the Stein action and Miles action, the &#147;Stockholder actions&#148;). The Stockholder actions generally allege that Cooper Tire and its
directors violated the federal securities laws, including Sections 14(a) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 14a-9 promulgated thereunder, by issuing a materially incomplete and misleading registration statement on Form S-4. The Stockholder
actions seek, among other things, to enjoin the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement and award of attorneys&#146; fees and expenses.</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Goodyear

Chancery, together with interest (subject to certain exceptions) on the amount determined to be the fair value, if any, if the merger is completed. The &#147;fair value&#148; of shares of Cooper Tire common stock as determined by the Delaware Court
of Chancery could be greater than, the same as, or less than, the value of the merger consideration that Cooper Tire stockholders would otherwise be entitled to receive under the merger agreement. </P>

Section&nbsp;262 of the DGCL and in a timely manner to perfect appraisal rights. Under Section&nbsp;262 of the DGCL, assuming the shares of Cooper Tire common stock remain listed on a national securities exchange immediately prior to the effective
time of the merger, the Delaware Court of Chancery will dismiss any appraisal proceedings as to all Cooper Tire stockholders who have perfected their appraisal rights unless (i)&nbsp;the total number of such shares entitled to appraisal exceeds 1%
of the outstanding shares of Cooper Tire common stock or (ii)&nbsp;the value of the merger consideration provided in the merger agreement for the total number of shares of Cooper Tire common stock entitled to appraisal exceeds $1&nbsp;million. </P>

the performance by the other party of its respective covenants and agreements contained in the merger agreement in all material respects, the absence of any event or other circumstance occurring between the date of the merger agreement and the
completion of the merger that would reasonably be expected to result in an material adverse effect for either party (other than those previously disclosed in each company&#146;s respective disclosure letters) and the delivery of an officer&#146;s

announcement of the merger agreement and will continue to fluctuate from the date of this proxy statement/prospectus to the date of the Cooper Tire special meeting and the date the merger is completed. No assurance can be given concerning the market
prices of Goodyear common stock or Cooper Tire common stock before completion of the merger or Goodyear common stock after completion of the merger. The exchange ratio is fixed in the merger agreement, but the market price of Goodyear common stock
(and therefore the value of the merger consideration) when received by Cooper Tire stockholders after the merger is completed will depend on the closing price of Goodyear common stock on the day such stockholders receive their shares of Goodyear
common stock pursuant to the merger agreement. Such market price could be greater than, less than or the same as shown in the table above. Accordingly, Cooper Tire stockholders are advised to obtain current market quotations for Goodyear common
stock and Cooper Tire common stock in deciding whether to vote for adoption of the merger agreement. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><A NAME="tx104529_26"></A>Dividends </B></P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Cooper Tire currently pays a quarterly dividend on shares of Cooper Tire common stock and last paid a
dividend on December&nbsp;30, 2020 of $0.105 per share to Cooper Tire stockholders of record at the close of business on December&nbsp;1, 2020. On February&nbsp;18, 2021, Cooper Tire announced that the Cooper Tire Board had declared a quarterly
dividend of $0.105 per share payable on March&nbsp;26, 2021 to the stockholders of record at the close of business on March&nbsp;1, 2021. Under the terms of the merger agreement, during the period before completion of the merger, Cooper Tire is not
permitted to, and must use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause its subsidiaries not to, declare, set aside, make or pay any dividend or other distribution, except for cash dividends paid (i)&nbsp;by any of Cooper Tire&#146;s direct or
indirect wholly owned subsidiaries to Cooper Tire, (ii)&nbsp;by a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-wholly</FONT> owned subsidiary of Cooper Tire to the equity holders thereof in amounts equal in proportion to their respective proportionate
equity holding in such person, (iii)&nbsp;to any other direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Cooper Tire or (iv)&nbsp;the scheduled dividend paid by Cooper Tire to holders of Cooper Tire common stock, not in excess of $0.105 per share of
Cooper Tire common stock per fiscal quarter, in each case, consistent in all material respects with past practice. Under the terms of the merger agreement, during the period before completion of the merger, Cooper Tire will ensure that the date on
which any scheduled quarterly dividend is declared and the record date with respect to any such scheduled quarterly dividend is (x)&nbsp;no later than five business days following and (y)&nbsp;no earlier than two business days preceding, in each
case, the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">one-year</FONT> anniversary of such dates for the corresponding quarter of the preceding year. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Furthermore,
under the merger agreement, if Goodyear has resumed its quarterly dividend (and provided that Goodyear has provided prior written notice to Cooper Tire of its intentions to resume its quarterly dividend), Goodyear and Cooper Tire have agreed to
coordinate their record and payment dates for their regular quarterly dividends so as to ensure that Cooper Tire stockholders do not receive two dividends, or fail to receive one dividend, in any quarter with respect to shares of Cooper Tire common
stock and the shares of Goodyear common stock that such holders receive in exchange therefor in the merger. In addition, if Goodyear has resumed its quarterly dividend in the quarter in which the closing of the merger occurs and if the record date
of Goodyear&#146;s quarterly dividend has been declared and is a date prior to the effective time of the merger, then the quarterly dividend declaration date and record date of Cooper Tire must occur no later than such date as is necessary to ensure
that holders of Cooper Tire common stock receive a quarterly dividend in accordance with the first sentence of this paragraph. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">After completion of the
merger, each former Cooper Tire stockholder who holds shares of Goodyear common stock into which shares of Cooper Tire common stock have been converted in connection with the merger will receive all dividends or other distributions declared and paid
on shares of Goodyear common stock with a record date on or after the completion of the merger. However, no dividend or other distribution having a record date after completion of the merger will actually be paid with respect to any shares of
Goodyear common stock into which shares of Cooper Tire common stock have been converted in connection with the merger until the certificates formerly representing shares of Cooper Tire common stock have been surrendered or the book-entry shares
formerly representing shares of Cooper Tire common stock have been transferred to the exchange agent in accordance with the merger agreement, at which time any such accrued dividends and other distributions on those shares of Goodyear common stock
will be paid without interest. Subject to the limitations set forth in the merger agreement described above, any future dividends by Goodyear will be made at the discretion of the Goodyear Board. Subject to the limitations set forth in the merger
agreement described above, any future dividends by Cooper Tire will be made at the discretion of the Cooper Tire Board. There can be no assurance that any future dividends will be declared or paid by Goodyear or Cooper Tire or as to the amount or
timing of those dividends, if any. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For more details regarding dividends, see &#147;The Merger Agreement&#151;Covenants and Agreements&#151;Coordination

completion of the merger will affect the market value that Cooper Tire stockholders will become entitled to receive on the date of the closing of the merger. Stock price changes may result from a
variety of factors (many of which are beyond Goodyear&#146;s or Cooper Tire&#146;s control), such as changes in Goodyear&#146;s or Cooper Tire&#146;s respective business, operations and prospects; changing raw material prices; the continued effects
of the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">COVID-19</FONT> pandemic and governmental and business responses to the pandemic; and changes in government rules and regulations in the countries in which each of Goodyear and Cooper Tire operates. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The price of Goodyear common stock has fluctuated during the period between the date the merger agreement was executed and the date of this proxy
statement/prospectus, and may continue to change through the date of the Cooper Tire special meeting and the date the merger is completed (which might be a significant period of time after the Cooper Tire special meeting). For example, based on the
range of closing prices of Goodyear common stock during the period from February&nbsp;19, 2021, the last full trading day before the public announcement of the merger, through March 26, 2021, the last practicable trading date before the filing of
this proxy statement/prospectus, the exchange ratio representing the market value of the merger consideration ranged from a high of $58.79 to a low of $54.36 for each share of Cooper Tire common stock. Because the exchange ratio will not be adjusted
to reflect any changes in the market values of Goodyear common stock or Cooper Tire common stock, the actual market value of the Goodyear common stock received by Cooper Tire stockholders upon completion of the merger may be outside this range. </P>
 <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">These variations could result from changes in the business, operations or prospects of Goodyear or Cooper Tire prior to or following the completion of
the merger, regulatory considerations, general market and economic conditions and other factors both within and beyond the control of Goodyear or Cooper Tire. At the time of the Cooper Tire special meeting, Cooper Tire stockholders will not know
with certainty the value of the shares of Goodyear common stock that they will receive upon completion of the merger. Neither Goodyear nor Cooper Tire is permitted to terminate the merger agreement solely because of changes in the market price of
either company&#146;s common stock. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Cooper Tire stockholders are urged to obtain current market quotations for shares of Goodyear common stock and Cooper

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The executive officers of Cooper Tire have arrangements with Cooper Tire that provide for certain severance payments or benefits, accelerated vesting of

signed on February&nbsp;22, 2021 and the completion of the merger or following completion of the merger. In addition, the executive officers and directors of Cooper Tire also have rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and
directors&#146; and officers&#146; liability insurance that will survive the completion of the merger. Following the signing of the merger agreement on February&nbsp;22, 2021, Cooper Tire deposited an additional $58,811,995 in cash to a rabbi trust

must be integrated, including purchasing, accounting and finance, sales, payroll, pricing, revenue management, marketing and benefits. The substantial majority of these costs will be <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-recurring</FONT> expenses
related to the merger (including financing of the merger), facilities and systems consolidation. Goodyear may incur additional costs to maintain employee morale and to attract, motivate or retain management personnel and other key employees.
Goodyear and Cooper Tire will also incur transaction fees and costs related to formulating integration plans for the combined business, and the execution of these plans may lead to additional unanticipated costs. Additionally, as a result of the
merger, rating agencies may take negative actions with regard to Goodyear&#146;s credit ratings, which may increase Goodyear&#146;s financing costs, including in connection with the financing of the merger. These incremental transaction and
merger-related costs may exceed the savings the combined company expects to achieve from the elimination of duplicative costs and the realization of other efficiencies related to the integration of the businesses, particularly in the near term and

and is currently expected to have consolidated indebtedness of approximately $7.6 billion, which is greater than the current indebtedness of Goodyear. The increased indebtedness of the combined company in comparison to that of Goodyear on a

accelerate the maturity of the debt under these agreements and to foreclose upon any collateral securing the debt. Under these circumstances, Goodyear might not have sufficient funds or other resources to satisfy all of its obligations. In addition,
the limitations imposed by financing agreements on Goodyear&#146;s ability to incur additional debt and to take other actions might significantly impair its ability to obtain other financing. </P>

synergies of the transaction as rapidly or to the extent anticipated by financial or industry analysts or if the effect of the merger on Goodyear&#146;s financial position, results of operations or cash flows is not consistent with the expectations
of financial or industry analysts. The issuance of shares of Goodyear common stock in the merger could on its own have the effect of depressing the market price for Goodyear common stock. In addition, many Cooper Tire stockholders may decide not to
hold the shares of Goodyear common stock they receive as a result of the merger. Other Cooper Tire stockholders, such as funds with limitations on their permitted holdings of stock in individual issuers, may be required to sell the shares of
Goodyear common stock they receive as a result of the merger. Any such sales of Goodyear common stock could have the effect of depressing the market price for Goodyear common stock. Moreover, general fluctuations in stock markets could have a
material adverse effect on the market for, or liquidity of, the Goodyear common stock, regardless of the actual operating performance of Goodyear after the completion of the merger. </P>

to obtain consents from these other parties in connection with the merger, which may not be obtained on favorable terms or at all. If relationships with customers, distributors, suppliers, vendors, landlords, joint venture partners and other
business partners are adversely affected by the merger, or if Goodyear, following the merger, loses the benefits of the contracts of Cooper Tire, Goodyear&#146;s business and financial performance could suffer. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Cooper Tire Board regularly evaluates the strategic direction of Cooper Tire, including evaluating strategic growth and other opportunities. This
consideration includes periodic discussions with Cooper Tire&#146;s management with respect to Cooper Tire&#146;s takeover preparedness and long-term prospects and strategies, including strategic opportunities and challenges, all with the goal of
enhancing long-term shareholder value. In connection with these discussions, the Cooper Tire Board and management, from time to time, have enlisted the assistance of financial advisors and outside legal counsel. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On August&nbsp;19, 2020, Bradley Hughes, President and Chief Executive Officer of Cooper Tire, had dinner with Richard Kramer, Chairman, Chief Executive
Officer and President of Goodyear, and Darren Wells, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Goodyear, to discuss general industry conditions and similar issues effecting their respective companies. During the course of this dinner,
Messrs. Kramer and Wells raised to Mr.&nbsp;Hughes the possibility of a business combination of the two companies. No specific proposal or terms of a potential strategic transaction were conveyed, but Mr.&nbsp;Kramer and Mr.&nbsp;Wells indicated
that if Cooper Tire was willing to consider such a transaction, Goodyear would work internally to prepare and submit a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-binding</FONT> proposal. Mr.&nbsp;Hughes informed Messrs. Kramer and Wells that Cooper Tire
was not for sale at that time and that he was optimistic about Cooper Tire&#146;s standalone strategy and its prospects in the near and long-term, but, consistent with Cooper Tire&#146;s practice, if the Cooper Tire Board were presented with an
offer that it believed was in the best interests of Cooper Tire and its stockholders, then the Cooper Tire Board would consider such offer. </P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On
August&nbsp;25, 2020, Mr.&nbsp;Hughes had a conversation with Mr.&nbsp;Kramer and Mr.&nbsp;Wells. Mr.&nbsp;Hughes indicated that, although Cooper Tire had not been considering a sale or merger of the company, Cooper Tire could see the potential
value in a combination of Cooper Tire and Goodyear. Mr.&nbsp;Hughes indicated that Cooper Tire would be open to hearing more about Goodyear&#146;s potential proposal. Mr.&nbsp;Hughes reiterated his optimism about Cooper Tire&#146;s near and
long-term prospects as a standalone enterprise, and indicated that, for any proposal to be seriously considered, it would need to offer a compelling combination of value to Cooper Tire stockholders, coupled with strong assurances regarding closing
certainty. Mr.&nbsp;Wells indicated that Goodyear had been evaluating a potential business combination with Cooper Tire for some time, and that Goodyear would do some more work internally to prepare a potential proposal. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On August&nbsp;26, 2020, Mr.&nbsp;Hughes informed the Cooper Tire Board of his conversations with Messrs. Kramer and Wells, including Goodyear&#146;s interest
in a potential business combination of the two companies. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On September&nbsp;9, 2020, at the request of Mr.&nbsp;Kramer, Mr.&nbsp;Hughes had a phone
conversation with Mr.&nbsp;Kramer and Mr.&nbsp;Wells. During that call, Messrs. Kramer and Wells reaffirmed Goodyear&#146;s interest in a potential transaction, indicating that they would likely make a cash and stock offer in early to <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">mid-fourth</FONT> quarter of calendar year 2020. As part of that discussion, the representatives of Goodyear requested certain information to further evaluate Cooper Tire and assist in the formulation of the terms of a

process to be followed if the parties were to proceed with evaluating a potential transaction. Mr.&nbsp;Phillips and Mr.&nbsp;Zamansky discussed which outside counsel and financial advisors the parties would each respectively intend to use in
connection with evaluating a business combination. Mr.&nbsp;Phillips and Mr.&nbsp;Zamansky also discussed Goodyear&#146;s previous information requests, and, although Mr.&nbsp;Zamansky provided some high-level oral responses to certain of the
requests, he indicated that further responses from Cooper Tire at such time would be premature and could not be provided. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On September&nbsp;21, 2020,

2020, Mr.&nbsp;Kramer and Mr.&nbsp;Hughes had a conversation to discuss a proposal Goodyear intended to make to acquire Cooper Tire. Mr.&nbsp;Kramer informed Mr.&nbsp;Hughes that the Goodyear Board had approved an offer and that Mr.&nbsp;Phillips
would be delivering Goodyear&#146;s written <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-binding</FONT> proposal to Mr.&nbsp;Zamansky the following day. Mr.&nbsp;Kramer indicated that Goodyear&#146;s offer would be a combination of cash and stock
consideration, equating to a value of approximately $44.00 per Cooper Tire share based on Goodyear&#146;s <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">then-current</FONT> share price. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On October&nbsp;14, 2020, Mr.&nbsp;Phillips, on behalf of Goodyear, transmitted to Mr.&nbsp;Zamansky Goodyear&#146;s written

receive $35.21 in cash and 0.914 of a share of Goodyear common stock in exchange for each Cooper Tire share, which equated to a value of a $44.00 per share of Cooper Tire common stock based upon Goodyear&#146;s share price as of the close of
business on October&nbsp;13, 2020. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On October&nbsp;19, 2020, the Cooper Tire Board held a meeting to discuss Goodyear&#146;s proposal. Messrs. Hughes and
Zamansky led a discussion with the Cooper Tire Board regarding the terms of Goodyear&#146;s proposal. The Cooper Tire Board received from Mr.&nbsp;Zamansky instruction regarding its fiduciary duties. The Cooper Tire Board then continued with a
discussion of the proposal from Goodyear, in which the directors discussed their impressions of the proposal, as well as areas where they believed that Cooper Tire needed more information. The Cooper Tire Board also discussed potential other parties
who might be interested in pursuing a potential acquisition or other strategic transaction as an alternative to Goodyear&#146;s proposal. After discussion, the Cooper Tire Board unanimously determined that Cooper Tire should continue to analyze
Goodyear&#146;s proposal and that the Cooper Tire Board would consider it further at its next meeting before month&#146;s end. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Also on October&nbsp;19,

scheduled meeting. Mr.&nbsp;Zamansky and representatives from Goldman Sachs and Jones Day were present at and participated in the meeting. The Cooper Tire Board engaged in a discussion with management and its financial and legal advisors regarding
Goodyear&#146;s proposal and potential responses to such proposal. During that discussion, representatives of Goldman Sachs reviewed Goldman Sachs&#146; preliminary financial analyses of Goodyear&#146;s proposal. The Cooper Tire Board received from
Jones Day instruction regarding its fiduciary duties in connection with the receipt of an unsolicited proposal. After discussion, the Cooper Tire Board unanimously determined that Mr.&nbsp;Hughes would inform Goodyear that their proposal was not
sufficiently compelling to engage in further discussions, but that Cooper Tire would be open to considering a revised proposal. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On October&nbsp;31, 2020,
Mr.&nbsp;Hughes communicated to Mr.&nbsp;Kramer that the Cooper Tire Board had concluded that Goodyear&#146;s proposal was not sufficient, but that Cooper Tire would be open to considering a revised proposal. Mr.&nbsp;Kramer indicated that Goodyear

Mr.&nbsp;Kramer requested certain additional, <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-public</FONT> information regarding Cooper Tire. Mr.&nbsp;Hughes responded that at Goodyear&#146;s current offer, Cooper Tire was not willing to proceed with <FONT

2020, Mr.&nbsp;Kramer and Mr.&nbsp;Hughes had another phone call discussion. On that call, Mr.&nbsp;Kramer indicated that Goodyear would be submitting a revised <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-binding</FONT> proposal, reflecting an increased
offer price which equated to a value of $45.50 per share of Cooper Tire common stock. However, Mr.&nbsp;Kramer noted that this was the best offer that Goodyear could make without being provided access to certain

asked questions of the representatives of Goldman Sachs and management, discussed the proposal and potential transaction further, and discussed potential next steps. A representative of Jones Day then responded to questions from the Cooper Tire
Board regarding legal matters, including the Cooper Tire Board&#146;s fiduciary duties. After discussion, the Cooper Tire Board unanimously determined that, while the revised proposal was not sufficiently compelling to proceed with the proposed
transaction or enter into full due diligence with Goodyear, it did warrant further engagement. The Cooper Tire Board authorized management to communicate this to Goodyear and, subject to entering into a customary confidentiality agreement, to share
limited information and engage in discussions with Goodyear to enable Goodyear to better understand the potential value of Cooper Tire and a transaction, to enable Goodyear and Cooper Tire to better understand potential synergies in connection with
a transaction, and to determine if Goodyear could improve its proposed offer. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On November&nbsp;14, 2020, Mr.&nbsp;Hughes called Mr.&nbsp;Kramer to inform

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">During a phone conversation on January&nbsp;5, 2021, Mr.&nbsp;Kramer and Mr.&nbsp;Hughes discussed the
status of Goodyear&#146;s proposal and interest in moving forward. Mr.&nbsp;Kramer communicated to Mr.&nbsp;Hughes that Goodyear had continued to evaluate its revised proposal over the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">year-end</FONT> holidays.
Mr.&nbsp;Kramer explained that the Goodyear Board had a meeting scheduled for the following week and he expected that he could provide a further update after that meeting. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On January&nbsp;7, 2021, the Cooper Tire Board held a special meeting. Mr.&nbsp;Zamansky was also present at the meeting. Among other matters, Mr.&nbsp;Hughes
and Mr.&nbsp;Zamansky reviewed and led a discussion with the directors regarding developments with respect to Goodyear&#146;s proposal since the last meeting of the directors. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On January&nbsp;12, 2021, Mr.&nbsp;Kramer and Mr.&nbsp;Hughes had a phone conversation, during which Mr.&nbsp;Kramer conveyed Goodyear&#146;s revised <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-binding</FONT> offer which equated to a value of $52.50 per share, consisting of cash and stock consideration. Mr.&nbsp;Kramer indicated to Mr.&nbsp;Hughes that this revised offer was at the upper limit of the price
that Goodyear was willing to pay and that Goodyear desired to move quickly if the parties were to proceed with pursuing a transaction. Following this call, on the same day, Mr.&nbsp;Phillips delivered Goodyear&#146;s revised offer to
Mr.&nbsp;Zamansky in writing, which revised offer reflected the price increase discussed earlier that day between Messrs. Kramer and Hughes. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On
January&nbsp;17, 2021, the Cooper Tire Board held a meeting to discuss Goodyear&#146;s revised proposal. Mr.&nbsp;Zamansky and representatives from Goldman Sachs and Jones Day were present at the meeting. Representatives of Goldman Sachs reviewed
the terms of Goodyear&#146;s revised proposal and Goldman Sachs&#146; preliminary financial analyses of the revised offer. Messrs. Hughes and Zamansky then led a discussion of potential responses to Goodyear and also led a discussion of ways to
identify and potentially engage with other parties who might be interested in presenting a competing proposal. After discussion, the Cooper Tire Board unanimously determined that the revised proposal warranted further engagement with Goodyear, and
instructed management to further explore the potential transaction with Goodyear, including by offering to provide Goodyear with additional information to assist it in potentially increasing its offer price. The Cooper Tire Board also instructed
management to continue with their planning to reach out to other parties who might be interested in presenting a competing proposal. The Cooper Tire Board also unanimously approved the engagement of Goldman Sachs as financial advisor for the
transaction. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Over the course of January&nbsp;18, 2021 and January&nbsp;19, 2021, Mr.&nbsp;Hughes and Mr.&nbsp;Kramer communicated multiple times
regarding various considerations with respect to proceeding further toward a potential transaction, including potential synergies in connection with a transaction, Cooper Tire&#146;s desire for assurances on closing certainty, and Goodyear&#146;s
offer price. Towards the conclusion of these discussions, Mr.&nbsp;Kramer orally communicated to Mr.&nbsp;Hughes an increase in Goodyear&#146;s <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-binding</FONT> offer price which equated to a value of $53.50,
consisting of cash and stock consideration, which Mr.&nbsp;Kramer indicated would be Goodyear&#146;s best and final offer. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On January&nbsp;19, 2021, the
Cooper Tire Board held a meeting to discuss Goodyear&#146;s revised proposal. Mr.&nbsp;Zamansky and representatives from Goldman Sachs and Jones Day were present at the meeting. Mr.&nbsp;Hughes described the revised proposal from Goodyear and
conveyed Goodyear&#146;s assertion that this was its best and final offer. Messrs. Hughes and Zamansky and the representatives of Goldman Sachs and the representatives of Jones Day then reviewed key deal points to consider if the Cooper Tire Board
were to decide to pursue the proposal, including, among other things, deal certainty considerations, potential responses to Goodyear and next steps. Representatives of Goldman Sachs reviewed Goldman Sachs&#146; updated preliminary financial analyses
of Goodyear&#146;s proposal. Messrs. Hughes and Zamansky also led a discussion of how to potentially engage with other parties who management viewed, based on discussions with its advisors, would be the most likely to be able to provide a competing
proposal capable of consummation. After discussion, the Cooper Tire Board unanimously determined that the revised proposal warranted further engagement with Goodyear, and instructed management to engage with Goodyear to pursue the potential
transaction on the terms outlined by management, including by engaging in due diligence and working to negotiate a definitive merger agreement. The Cooper Tire </P>

need for assurances as to closing certainty for Cooper Tire in order for Cooper Tire to proceed. Also on January&nbsp;20, 2021, Messrs. Zamansky and Phillips discussed immediate next steps for the process, including Goodyear&#146;s intent to provide
its revised <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-binding</FONT> proposal in writing and Goodyear&#146;s delivery of a due diligence request list and the parties&#146; intended process for negotiating a definitive merger agreement. </P>

January&nbsp;21, 2021, representatives of Jones Day had a conversation with representatives of Paul Weiss regarding the potential transaction. During this conversation, the respective representatives discussed approaches to drafting and negotiating
the merger agreement, with representatives of Jones Day noting Cooper Tire&#146;s particular concerns regarding closing certainty in light of the previous failed merger in 2013 between Cooper Tire and Apollo Tyres Ltd. The representatives also
discussed the approach to due diligence, including Cooper Tire&#146;s reverse due diligence on Goodyear. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Also on January&nbsp;21, 2021, Goldman Sachs

interests of, Cooper Tire and Cooper Tire stockholders, (b)&nbsp;approved and declared advisable execution, delivery and performance of the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby (including the merger), (c)&nbsp;resolved to
recommend the adoption of the merger agreement by Cooper Tire stockholders, and (d)&nbsp;directed that the adoption of the merger agreement be submitted to a vote at a meeting of Cooper Tire stockholders. <B>The Cooper Tire Board unanimously
recommends that Cooper</B> <B>Tire stockholders vote &#147;FOR&#148; the merger proposal, &#147;FOR&#148; the merger-related named executive officer compensation proposal</B> <B>and, if necessary or appropriate, &#147;FOR&#148; the adjournment
proposal.</B> </P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In evaluating the merger, the Cooper Tire Board consulted with Cooper Tire senior management and outside legal and financial advisors
and considered a variety of factors. The discussion in this section is not intended to be an exhaustive list of the information and factors considered by the Cooper Tire Board, but it is intended to address the most material information and factors
considered by the Cooper Tire Board. In view of the wide variety of factors considered in connection with the merger, the Cooper Tire Board did not consider it practicable to, nor did it attempt to, quantify or otherwise assign relative weights to
the specific material factors it considered in reaching its decision. In addition, individual members of the Cooper Tire Board may have given different weight to different factors. The Cooper Tire Board considered this information and these factors

stock at any time prior to the announcement of the merger agreement. The Cooper Tire Board believes that if Cooper Tire were to remain independent, the price per share of its common stock is unlikely to trade at, or above, the implied price of the

illustrative future value per share of Cooper Tire common stock. For this analysis, Goldman Sachs used the internal financial analyses and forecasts for Cooper Tire prepared by Cooper Tire&#146;s senior management for each of the fiscal years 2021
to 2025. Goldman Sachs first calculated the illustrative enterprise values of Cooper Tire for each of the fiscal years 2021 to 2024 by multiplying the respective NTM EBITDA estimates from the internal financial analyses and forecasts for Cooper Tire
prepared by Cooper Tire&#146;s senior management by illustrative NTM enterprise value to EBITDA multiples of 3.50x to 5.00x. The illustrative multiple range was derived by Goldman Sachs utilizing its professional judgment and experience, taking into
account current and historical trading data and the current and historical NTM enterprise value to EBITDA multiples for Cooper Tire and the selected companies. Goldman Sachs then added the assumed amount of net cash and subtracted the assumed
minority interest as of the relevant <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">year-end,</FONT> per the internal financial analyses and forecasts for Cooper Tire prepared by Cooper Tire&#146;s senior management, from such enterprise values in order to
calculate the implied future equity values. The implied future equity values in turn were divided by the projected <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">year-end</FONT> fully diluted shares of Cooper Tire common stock outstanding as provided by Cooper
Tire&#146;s management. Goldman Sachs then calculated the present values of each implied future value per share of Cooper Tire common stock by discounting such implied future value per share of Cooper Tire common stock to December&nbsp;31, 2020.
Goldman Sachs then added to such amounts the cumulative present value of dividends per share expected to be paid over the applicable period, per the internal financial analyses and forecasts for Cooper Tire prepared by Cooper Tire&#146;s senior
management, calculated by discounting the future values of such dividends per share to December&nbsp;31, 2020. For the purpose of discounting, Goldman Sachs used a discount rate of 10.0%, reflecting Goldman Sachs&#146; estimate of Cooper Tire&#146;s
cost of equity. Goldman Sachs derived such discount rate by application of the Capital Asset Pricing Model, which requires certain company-specific inputs, including a beta for Cooper Tire, as well as certain financial metrics for the United States
financial markets generally. This analysis resulted in a range of implied present values per share of Cooper Tire common stock of $41 to $62 per share, rounded to the nearest dollar. </P>

discounted to present value as of December&nbsp;31, 2020 (1) estimates of unlevered free cash flow for Cooper Tire for the years 2021 through 2025 as reflected in the internal financial analyses and forecasts for Cooper Tire prepared by Cooper

estimated net cash of Cooper Tire as of December&nbsp;31, 2020, and subtracted the minority interest as of December&nbsp;31, 2020, in each case, as provided by the management of Cooper Tire to derive a range of illustrative equity values for Cooper
Tire. Goldman Sachs then divided the range of illustrative equity values it derived by the number of fully diluted outstanding shares of Cooper Tire, as provided by the management of Cooper Tire to derive a range of illustrative present values per
share ranging from $48 to $62, rounded to the nearest dollar. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Premia Analysis. </I>Goldman Sachs reviewed and analyzed, using publicly available
information, the acquisition premia for transactions announced during the time period from 2016 through 2020 involving a U.S. public company as the target where the disclosed enterprise values for the transaction were above $1&nbsp;billion, with a
maximum of 50% stock and excluding real estate and financial institutions transactions. For the entire period, using publicly available information, Goldman Sachs calculated the median, 25th percentile and 75th percentile premiums of the price paid
in the transactions relative to the target&#146;s last undisturbed closing stock price prior to announcement of the transaction. This analysis also indicated a 25th percentile premium of 24% and 75th percentile premium of 37% across the period.
Using this analysis, Goldman Sachs applied a reference range of illustrative premiums of 24% to 37% to the undisturbed closing price per share of Cooper Tire common stock of $43.77 as of February&nbsp;19, 2021 and calculated a range of implied
equity values per share of Cooper Tire common stock of $54 to $60, rounded to the nearest dollar. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The preparation of a fairness opinion is a complex
process and is not necessarily susceptible to partial analysis or summary description. Selecting portions of the analyses or of the summary set forth above, without considering the analyses as a whole, could create an incomplete view of the
processes underlying Goldman Sachs&#146; opinion. In arriving at its fairness determination, Goldman Sachs considered the results of all of its analyses and did not attribute any particular weight to any factor or analysis considered by it. Rather,
Goldman Sachs made its determination as to fairness on the basis of its experience and professional judgment after considering the results of all of its analyses. No company or transaction used in the above analyses as a comparison is directly
comparable to Cooper Tire or Goodyear or the merger. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Goldman Sachs prepared these analyses for purposes of Goldman Sachs&#146; providing its opinion to
the Cooper Tire Board as to the fairness from a financial point of view to the holders (other than Goodyear and its affiliates) of Cooper Tire common stock, as of the date of the opinion, of the merger consideration to be paid to such holders. These
analyses do not purport to be appraisals nor do they necessarily reflect the prices at which businesses or securities actually may be sold. Analyses based upon forecasts of future results are not necessarily indicative of actual future results,
which may be significantly more or less favorable than suggested by these analyses. Because these analyses are inherently subject to uncertainty, being based upon numerous factors or events beyond the control of the parties or their respective

fair market value of a share of Cooper Tire common stock at the effective time of the merger is $57.04<B> </B>(which represents the average closing price of a share of Cooper Tire common stock over the first five business days following the first

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In accordance with current accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, Goodyear will account for the merger using the acquisition method of
accounting for business combinations. As a result, the recorded assets and liabilities of Goodyear will be carried forward at their recorded amounts, the historical operating results will be unchanged for the prior periods being reported and the
assets and liabilities of Cooper Tire will be adjusted to their respective estimated fair values at the closing date of the merger. In addition, all identified intangible assets will be recorded at estimated fair value and included as part of the
net assets acquired. Any excess of the purchase price, consisting of the number of shares of Goodyear common stock to be issued to former Cooper Tire stockholders and holders of certain equity-based long-term incentive awards and cash paid to option
holders and holders of long-term performance cash units and deferred stock units, as applicable, at fair value, plus $41.75 per share of Cooper Tire common stock in cash, over the fair value of the net assets acquired, including identified
intangible assets of Cooper Tire, on the closing date of the merger will be accounted for as goodwill. In accordance with current accounting guidance, goodwill and identified indefinite life intangible assets will not be amortized but will be
evaluated for impairment annually. Identified finite life intangible assets will be amortized over their estimated lives. Further, the acquisition method of accounting will result in the operating results of Cooper Tire being included in the
operating results of Goodyear beginning from the closing date of the merger. </P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><A NAME="tx104529_43"></A>Regulatory Approvals Required for the

period after the submission of their respective HSR filings before consummating their transaction, unless the waiting period is earlier terminated. If either agency issues a request for additional information or documentary material (a &#147;second

from that described above if such holder&#146;s percentage interest in Goodyear following the merger does not represent a sufficient reduction (as determined below) relative to such holder&#146;s percentage interest in Cooper Tire before the merger.
Section&nbsp;304 of the Code will apply to the merger if holders of shares of Cooper Tire common stock, taken together, own 50% or more of the Goodyear common stock, by vote or value, following the completion of the merger, taking into account both
shares of Goodyear received in the merger and shares of Goodyear held at the time of the merger. Certain constructive attribution rules apply to determine ownership for purposes of the ownership tests described in this paragraph. If Section&nbsp;304
of the Code applies to the merger, a holder will be treated as receiving the cash consideration from Goodyear in a deemed redemption of shares of Goodyear common stock deemed issued to such holder in the transaction instead of selling shares of
Cooper Tire common stock for cash. Because the application of Section&nbsp;304 of the Code to the merger depends on the ownership of shares of Goodyear common stock following the merger and is determined after the application of various constructive
ownership rules, Cooper Tire and Goodyear are unable to determine, prior to the time of the merger, whether Section&nbsp;304 of the Code applies to the merger. Further, it may not be possible to establish with certainty following the closing of the
merger whether or not Section&nbsp;304 of the Code applied to the merger because the ownership information necessary to make such determination may not be available. However, based on the limited ownership information that is publicly available, it
is possible that Section&nbsp;304 of the Code will apply to the merger. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Holders of shares of Cooper Tire common stock that also own (including by

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If Section&nbsp;304 of the Code applies to the merger, a Cooper Tire stockholder may be deemed to have contributed such shares of common stock to Goodyear in
exchange for shares of Goodyear common stock, which is in turn deemed to have been redeemed for the cash consideration received in the merger. Such deemed redemption of Goodyear stock generally would be treated as having the effect of a distribution
of a dividend in the event that the receipt of the cash consideration by a holder is not &#147;substantially disproportionate&#148; with respect to such holder or is &#147;essentially equivalent to a dividend&#148; under the tests set forth in

holder is deemed actually and constructively to have owned immediately before the merger and (y)&nbsp;the percentage of the outstanding Cooper Tire common stock that is actually and
constructively owned by such holder immediately after the merger (including indirectly as a result of owning stock in Goodyear and taking into account any shares of Goodyear common stock actually and constructively owned by such holder prior to the
merger, or otherwise acquired in connection with the transaction). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The deemed redemption will generally result in a &#147;substantially
disproportionate&#148; exchange with respect to a holder if the percentage described in clause (y)&nbsp;above is less than 80% of the percentage described in clause (x)&nbsp;above. Whether the deemed redemption results in an exchange that is
&#147;not essentially equivalent to a dividend&#148; with respect to a holder will depend on such holder&#146;s particular circumstances. Generally, if such deemed redemption results in a &#147;meaningful reduction&#148; in the holder&#146;s
percentage stock ownership of Cooper Tire, as determined by comparing the percentage described in clause (y)&nbsp;above to the percentage described in clause (x)&nbsp;above, such deemed redemption will be considered &#147;not essentially equivalent
to a dividend.&#148; The IRS has indicated in a revenue ruling that a minority shareholder in a publicly traded corporation will experience a &#147;meaningful reduction&#148; if the minority shareholder (i)&nbsp;has a minimal percentage stock
interest, (ii)&nbsp;exercises no control over corporate affairs and (iii)&nbsp;experiences any reduction in its percentage stock interest. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In applying
the above tests, a holder may, under constructive ownership rules, be deemed to own stock that is owned by other persons or stock underlying a holder&#146;s option to purchase stock, in addition to the stock actually owned by the holder. In
addition, as noted above, in applying the &#147;substantially disproportionate&#148; and &#147;not essentially equivalent to a dividend&#148; tests to a holder, sales (or purchases) of shares of Goodyear common stock made by such holder (or by
persons whose shares are attributed to such holder) in connection with the merger will be taken into account. If such deemed redemption is not &#147;substantially disproportionate&#148; with respect to such holder or is &#147;essentially equivalent
to a dividend&#148;, the deemed redemption would be taxable as a dividend (in an amount equal to the cash consideration received) to the extent of the holder&#146;s allocable share of the current and accumulated earnings and profits of Goodyear and
Cooper Tire. To the extent that the amount of cash consideration exceeds Goodyear&#146;s and Cooper Tire&#146;s current and accumulated earnings and profits, the distribution would first be treated as a
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">tax-free</FONT> return of capital, causing a reduction in the holder&#146;s adjusted tax basis in its shares of Cooper Tire common stock, and to the extent the amount of the distribution exceeds such tax basis, the
excess would be taxed as capital gain recognized on a sale or exchange of such holder&#146;s shares of Cooper Tire common stock. The amount of any such gain would be taxed as described above under the headings &#147;&#151;U.S. Holders&#148; and <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">&#147;&#151;Non-U.S.</FONT> Holders&#148;, as applicable. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For U.S. Holders, dividends are generally taxable as ordinary
income. However, <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-corporate</FONT> U.S. Holders may be eligible for a reduced rate of taxation on dividends, including dividends arising by operation of Section&nbsp;304 of the Code. For corporate U.S. Holders,
dividends (a)&nbsp;may be eligible for a dividends-received deduction and (b)&nbsp;may be subject to the &#147;extraordinary dividend&#148; provisions of the Code, subject in each case to certain requirements and limitations. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Subject to the discussion below under the headings &#147;&#151;Information Reporting and Backup Withholding&#148; and &#147;&#151;FATCA Withholding&#148;, for
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Holders, the receipt of any amounts treated as a dividend generally will be subject to U.S. withholding tax at a 30% rate (or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty),
unless such dividend is effectively connected with a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Holder&#146;s conduct of a trade or business within the United States (and, if an applicable income tax treaty so requires, is attributable to a
U.S. permanent establishment or fixed place of business of the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Holder). However, because application of Section&nbsp;304 of the Code to the merger is uncertain and because the application of
Section&nbsp;304 of the Code depends on a holder&#146;s particular circumstances, withholding agents may not be able to determine whether a holder is treated as receiving a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Therefore, withholding agents
may withhold against all <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Holders at a 30% rate (or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on the full amount of the cash consideration received. If a withholding agent
withholds a portion of the cash consideration to be received by a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Holder that is exempt from such withholding, the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Holder may apply for a refund. </P>

</B></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On February&nbsp;22, 2021, Goodyear entered into the merger agreement along with Cooper Tire and Merger Sub, a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of
Goodyear, pursuant to which, subject to the satisfaction or (to the extent permitted by applicable law) waiver of the conditions set forth therein, Goodyear will acquire Cooper Tire by way of the merger of Merger Sub with and into Cooper Tire, with
Cooper Tire surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Goodyear. Under the terms of the merger agreement, at the effective time of the merger, Cooper Tire stockholders will be entitled to receive $41.75 per share in cash and a fixed
exchange ratio of 0.907 shares of Goodyear common stock per share of Cooper Tire common stock (subject to potential adjustment as described in &#147;The Merger Agreement&#151;Merger Consideration&#151;Share Cap Adjustment&#148; beginning on page
93). Goodyear expects to complete the merger in the second half of 2021, subject to the satisfaction or (to the extent permitted by applicable law) waiver of customary closing conditions, including receipt of required regulatory approvals and the
approval of Cooper Tire stockholders. </P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements (&#147;pro forma combined
statements&#148;) give effect to the merger on a combined basis. The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations (&#147;pro forma statement of operations&#148;) gives effect to the merger as if it had occurred on January&nbsp;1, 2020 and
combines the audited consolidated statement of operations of Goodyear and Cooper Tire for the fiscal year ended December&nbsp;31, 2020. The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet (&#147;pro forma balance sheet&#148;) gives effect to the merger
as if it had occurred on December&nbsp;31, 2020 and combines the audited consolidated balance sheet of Goodyear as of December&nbsp;31, 2020 with Cooper Tire&#146;s audited consolidated balance sheet as of December&nbsp;31, 2020. These statements
and related notes, collectively referred to as &#147;pro forma financial information&#148;, have been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">S-X</FONT> and have been derived from, and should be read in
conjunction with, the accompanying notes to the pro forma combined financial statements and the historical consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto on Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">10-K</FONT> for the year ended
December&nbsp;31, 2020 for both Goodyear and Cooper Tire, which are incorporated by reference in this proxy statement/prospectus. </P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The pro forma
financial information has been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, &#147;Business Combinations&#148; which requires, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business
combination be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date with limited exceptions. </P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The historical consolidated financial information
of Goodyear and Cooper Tire has been adjusted in the pro forma combined statements to give effect to pro forma events, including the merger and related financing. The pro forma combined statements should be read in conjunction with the accompanying
notes and do not reflect the costs of any integration activities or benefits that may result from the realization of future cost savings from operating efficiencies or any other synergies that may result from the merger, including income tax
synergies. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The statements and related notes are being provided for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to represent what Goodyear&#146;s actual
results of operations or financial position would have been had the merger been completed on the dates indicated, nor are they necessarily indicative of Goodyear&#146;s future results of operations or financial position for any future period
following the merger. Goodyear has completed a preliminary purchase price allocation to provide an estimate of the fair values associated with certain of Cooper Tire&#146;s assets and liabilities acquired (discussed in the notes below). A final
determination of the fair value of Cooper Tire&#146;s assets and liabilities, including intangible assets with both indefinite or finite lives, will be based on Cooper Tire&#146;s actual assets and liabilities at closing. As the fair value analysis
has not been finalized, any changes in the fair value of the net assets acquired as compared with the information shown in the pro forma combined statements may change the amount of the allocation of the total purchase consideration to goodwill and
other assets and liabilities and may impact Goodyear&#146;s statement of operations. The final purchase consideration allocation may be materially different than the preliminary purchase consideration allocation presented in the pro forma combined
statements. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The accounting adjustments for the acquisition consist of those necessary to account for the acquisition and
are based upon available information and certain assumptions that Goodyear believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The assumptions underlying the adjustments are described in greater detail in the accompanying notes to the pro forma
combined statements. In many cases, the assumptions were based on preliminary information and estimates. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Separately, Goodyear obtained the commitment
letter for a senior unsecured <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">364-day</FONT> bridge term loan facility totaling approximately $2.3&nbsp;billion. For purposes of the pro forma combined statements, Goodyear has assumed that $1,450&nbsp;million will
be drawn on the bridge loan facility to finance the merger at an interest rate of LIBOR plus 3.5%. The commitment letter specifies that the LIBOR rate used to determine the overall interest rate shall not be less than 0.50%. The adjustments related
to the issuance of this debt, the estimated repayment of Cooper Tire debt using existing Cooper Tire cash, as well as the funding of the Cooper Tire rabbi trust are shown in a separate column as Other Adjustments. Although Goodyear intends to
replace the bridge loan facility with other long term financing arrangements, the terms of those arrangements cannot be determined at this time and are thus not referenced in these pro forma combined statements. </P>

February&nbsp;22, 2021, Goodyear entered into the merger agreement along with Cooper Tire and Merger Sub, a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Goodyear, pursuant to which, subject to the satisfaction or (to the extent permitted by applicable law)
waiver of the conditions set forth therein, Goodyear will acquire Cooper Tire by way of the merger of Merger Sub with and into Cooper Tire, with Cooper Tire surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Goodyear. Under the terms of the merger
agreement, at the effective time of the merger, Cooper Tire stockholders will be entitled to receive $41.75 per share in cash and a fixed exchange ratio of 0.907 shares of Goodyear common stock per share of Cooper Tire common stock (subject to
potential adjustment as described in &#147;The Merger Agreement&#151;Merger Consideration&#151;Share Cap Adjustment&#148; beginning on page 93). Goodyear expects to complete the merger in the second half of 2021, subject to the satisfaction or (to
the extent permitted by applicable law) waiver of customary closing conditions, including receipt of required regulatory approvals and the approval of Cooper Tire stockholders. </P>

accounting principles (&#147;GAAP&#148;) and should be read in conjunction with the Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">10-K</FONT> for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2020 for each of Goodyear and Cooper Tire. This pro forma financial
information is presented for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of what the combined company&#146;s financial position or results of operations actually would have been had the merger been completed as of the dates
indicated. In addition, this pro forma financial information does not purport to project the future financial position or operating results of the combined company. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The pro forma financial information has been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, &#147;Business Combinations&#148;
which requires, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date with limited exceptions. The acquisition method of accounting uses the fair
value concepts defined in ASC 820, &#147;Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures&#148; (&#147;ASC 820&#148;). </P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">ASC 820 defines fair value,
establishes the framework for measuring fair value for any asset acquired or liability assumed under GAAP, and specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on the nature of the inputs used to develop the fair value measurements. Fair value is
defined in ASC 820 as &#147;the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.&#148; Fair value measurements can be highly subjective, and
it is possible the application of reasonable judgement could develop different assumptions resulting in a range of alternative estimates using the same facts and circumstances. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Acquisition accounting is dependent upon certain valuations and other studies that have yet to progress to a stage where there is sufficient information for a
definitive measurement. Accordingly, the pro forma adjustments included herein are preliminary and have been presented solely for the purpose of providing the pro forma financial information and will be revised as additional information becomes
available and as additional analyses are performed. The process for estimating the fair values of identifiable intangible assets and certain tangible assets requires the use of judgment in determining the appropriate assumptions and estimates.
Differences between preliminary estimates and the final acquisition accounting will occur and could have a material impact on the accompanying pro forma financial information and the combined company&#146;s future results of operations and financial
position. Certain amounts from the historical financial statements of Cooper Tire were reclassified to conform the presentation to that of Goodyear (see Note 3). </P>

The tax rates used for this pro forma financial information are an estimate, and therefore, the blended rate will likely vary from the actual effective rate in periods subsequent to the completion of the merger. A pro forma blended statutory tax
rate of 24.0% was used in determining the tax impact of certain pro forma adjustments. This rate was estimated using the statutory income tax rate for Goodyear and Cooper Tire, weighted based on respective income (loss) before income taxes. The
adjusted statutory income tax rate for Goodyear and Cooper Tire is based on the U.S statutory income tax rate of 21%, plus 3% related to the tax rate impact of state and local income taxes and income taxes of
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-U.S.</FONT> operations. Income tax has not been calculated on approximately $34&nbsp;million of transaction costs that are estimated to be capitalizable for income tax purposes. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As part of Cooper Tire&#146;s precautions regarding COVID-19, the Cooper Tire special meeting will be a virtual meeting, as permitted by Delaware law and
Cooper Tire&#146;s bylaws. A virtual special meeting format is expected to facilitate and increase Cooper Tire stockholder attendance and participation by enabling Cooper Tire stockholders of record to participate fully and equally from any location
around the world. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Cooper Tire remains sensitive to concerns regarding virtual meetings generally from investor advisory groups and other stockholder
rights advocates who have voiced concerns that virtual meetings may diminish stockholder voice or reduce accountability. Cooper Tire&#146;s bylaws provide that special meetings of Cooper Tire stockholders may be held by means of remote
communication, subject to such guidelines and procedures as the Cooper Tire Board may adopt from time to time. Accordingly, Cooper Tire has designed the procedures for the virtual Cooper Tire special meeting format to comply with these requirements
and to enhance, rather than constrain, Cooper Tire stockholder access, participation and communication. In preparation for the virtual Cooper Tire special meeting, (i) Cooper Tire will implement reasonable measures to verify that each person deemed
present and permitted to vote at the Cooper Tire special meeting is a Cooper Tire stockholder of record or proxy holder, (ii) Cooper Tire will implement reasonable measures to provide Cooper Tire stockholders of record and proxy holders a reasonable
opportunity to participate in the Cooper Tire special meeting and to vote on matters submitted to Cooper Tire stockholders of record, including an opportunity to read or hear the proceedings of the Cooper Tire special meeting substantially
concurrently with such proceedings, and (iii) Cooper Tire will maintain a record of any votes or other action taken by Cooper Tire stockholders of record or proxy holders at the Cooper Tire special meeting. Additionally, the online format allows
Cooper Tire stockholders to communicate with Cooper Tire during the Cooper Tire special meeting so they can ask appropriate questions of the Cooper Tire Board or Cooper Tire management. Information regarding the ability of Cooper Tire stockholders
to ask questions during the Cooper Tire special meeting and related rules of conduct at the Cooper Tire special meeting will be posted on Cooper Tire&#146;s investor relations page (<I>investors.coopertire.com</I>) in advance of the Cooper Tire
special meeting. Similarly, matters addressing technical and logistical issues, including technical support during the Cooper Tire special meeting and related to accessing the Cooper Tire special meeting&#146;s virtual meeting platform, will be

reference herein. The following discussion does not constitute any legal or other advice, nor does it constitute a recommendation as to whether or not a Cooper Tire stockholder should exercise its right to seek appraisal under Section&nbsp;262 of
the DGCL. All references in Section&nbsp;262 of the DGCL and this summary to a &#147;stockholder&#148; are to the record holder of the shares of Cooper Tire common stock. Only a holder of record of shares of Cooper Tire common stock is entitled to
demand appraisal rights for the shares registered in such holder&#146;s name. A person having a beneficial interest in shares of Cooper Tire common stock held of record in the name of another person, such as a broker, bank, trustee or other nominee,
must act promptly to cause the record holder to follow the steps summarized below properly and in a timely manner to perfect appraisal rights. If you hold your shares of Cooper Tire common stock through a broker, bank, trustee or other nominee and

the &#147;fair value&#148; of such shares (as determined by the Delaware Court of Chancery, exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the merger) as of the completion of the merger, together with interest
(subject to certain exceptions) on the amount determined to be the fair value, if any, instead of receiving the merger consideration pursuant to the merger agreement. Any such Cooper Tire stockholder awarded &#147;fair value&#148; for the
holder&#146;s shares of Cooper Tire common stock by the court would receive payment of that fair value in cash, together with interest (subject to certain exceptions) on the amount determined to be the fair value, if any, in lieu of the right to

Tire stockholder exercising appraisal rights must hold the shares of record on the date the written demand is made and must continue to hold the shares of record through the effective time of the merger. A demand for appraisal must be executed by or
on behalf of the stockholder of record. The demand should set forth, fully and correctly, the stockholder&#146;s name as it appears on the stock certificates (or in the stock ledger). The demand must reasonably inform Cooper Tire of the identity of
the stockholder and that the stockholder intends to demand appraisal of his, her or its Cooper Tire common stock. Beneficial owners who do not also hold their shares of Cooper Tire common stock of record may not directly make appraisal demands to
Cooper Tire. The beneficial owner must, in such cases, have the holder of record, such as a bank, broker or other nominee, submit the required demand in respect of those shares of Cooper Tire common stock of record. If the shares are owned of record
in a fiduciary capacity, such as by a trustee, guardian or custodian, execution of the demand should be made in that capacity. A holder of record, such as a bank, broker or other nominee, who holds shares of Cooper Tire common stock in &#147;street
name&#148; as a nominee or intermediary for others may exercise his, her or its right of appraisal with respect to the shares of Cooper Tire common stock held for one or more beneficial owners, while not exercising this right for other beneficial
owners. In that case, the written demand should state the number of shares of Cooper Tire common stock as to which appraisal is sought. Where no number of shares of Cooper Tire common stock is expressly mentioned, the demand will be presumed to
cover all shares of Cooper Tire common stock held in the name of the holder of record. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>IF YOU HOLD YOUR SHARES OF COOPER TIRE COMMON STOCK IN BANK OR

for appraisal for a stockholder of record; however, the agent must identify the holder or holders of record and expressly disclose the fact that, in exercising the demand, such person is acting as agent for the holder or holders of record. If you
hold shares of Cooper Tire common stock through a nominee or intermediary who in turn holds the shares through a central securities depository nominee such as Cede&nbsp;&amp; Co., a demand for appraisal of such shares must be made by or on behalf of

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If the merger is consummated, the surviving corporation will give written notice of the effective date of the merger within 10 days after such effective date
to Cooper Tire stockholders who did not vote in favor of the merger agreement and who made a written demand for appraisal in accordance with Section&nbsp;262 of the DGCL. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">At any time within 60 days after the effective date of the merger, any Cooper Tire stockholder that made a demand for appraisal but has not commenced an
appraisal proceeding or joined in such a proceeding as a named party will have the right to withdraw its demand and to accept the merger consideration in accordance with the merger agreement for his, her or its shares of Cooper Tire common stock by
delivering to the surviving corporation a written withdrawal of the demand for appraisal, but after such <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">60-day</FONT> period a demand for appraisal may be withdrawn only with the written approval of the surviving
corporation. </P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Within 120 days after the effective date of the merger, either the record holder or a beneficial owner of Cooper Tire common stock,
provided such person has complied with the requirements of Section&nbsp;262 of the DGCL and is otherwise entitled to appraisal rights, or the surviving corporation may commence an appraisal proceeding by filing a petition in the Delaware Court of
Chancery, with a copy served on the surviving corporation in the case of a petition filed by a stockholder or beneficial owner, demanding an appraisal of the value of the shares of Cooper Tire common stock held by all stockholders who have properly
demanded appraisal. The surviving corporation is under no obligation to file an appraisal petition and has no intention of doing so. If you desire to have your shares of Cooper Tire common stock appraised, you should initiate any petitions necessary
for the perfection of your appraisal rights within the time periods and in the manner prescribed in Section&nbsp;262 of the DGCL. </P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Within 120 days
after the effective date of the merger, any stockholder or beneficial owner who has complied with the provisions of Section&nbsp;262 of the DGCL will be entitled to receive from the surviving corporation, upon written request therefor, a statement
setting forth the aggregate number of shares of Cooper Tire common stock not voted in favor of the adoption of the merger agreement and with respect to which Cooper Tire has received demands for appraisal, and the aggregate number of holders of
those shares. The surviving corporation must mail this statement to you within the later of (i) 10 days after receipt by the surviving corporation of the request therefor and (ii) 10 days after expiration of the period for delivery of demands for
appraisal. If you are the beneficial owner of shares of Cooper Tire common stock held in a voting trust or by a nominee or intermediary on your behalf you may, in your own name, file an appraisal petition or request from the surviving corporation
the statement described in this paragraph. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If a petition for appraisal is duly filed by you or another holder of record or beneficial owner of Cooper
Tire common stock who has properly exercised his, her or its appraisal rights in accordance with the provisions of Section&nbsp;262 of the DGCL, and a copy of the petition is served on the surviving corporation, the surviving corporation will then
be obligated, within 20 days after receiving service of a copy of the petition, to file in the office of the Register in Chancery in which the petition was filed a duly verified list containing the names and addresses of all holders who have
demanded an appraisal of their shares and with whom agreements as to the value of their shares have not been reached by the surviving corporation. The Register in Chancery, if so ordered by the Delaware Court of Chancery, shall give notice of the
time and place fixed for the hearing of such petition by registered or certified mail to the surviving corporation and to the stockholders shown on such verified list at the addresses therein stated. Such notice shall also be given by one or more
publications at least one week before the day of the hearing, in a newspaper of general circulation published in the City of Wilmington, Delaware or such publication as the Delaware Court of Chancery deems advisable. The forms of the notices by mail

Chancery for notation thereon of the pendency of the appraisal proceedings, and the Delaware Court of Chancery may dismiss the proceedings as to any Cooper Tire stockholder who fails to comply
with this direction. Assuming the shares of Cooper Tire common stock remain listed on a national securities exchange immediately before the merger, the Delaware Court of Chancery will also dismiss proceedings as to all holders of such shares if
neither of the ownership thresholds described above is met. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">After the Delaware Court of Chancery determines the stockholders entitled to an appraisal,
the appraisal proceeding will be conducted in accordance with the rules of the Delaware Court of Chancery, including any rules specifically governing appraisal proceedings. The&nbsp;Delaware Court of Chancery will thereafter determine the fair value
of the shares of Cooper Tire common stock, exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the merger, together with interest, if any, on the amount determined to be the fair value. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Unless the Delaware Court of Chancery in its discretion determines otherwise for good cause shown, interest from the effective date of the merger through the
date of payment of the judgment will be compounded quarterly and will accrue at 5% over the Federal Reserve discount rate (including any surcharge) as established from time to time during the period between the effective date of the merger and the
date of payment of the judgment. However, the surviving corporation has the right, at any point prior to the Delaware Court of Chancery&#146;s entry of judgment in the proceedings, to make a voluntary cash payment to each stockholder entitled to
appraisal. If the surviving corporation makes such a voluntary cash payment, interest will accrue thereafter only on the sum of (i)&nbsp;the difference, if any, between the amount paid by the surviving corporation in such voluntary cash payment and
the fair value of the shares as determined by the Delaware Court of Chancery and (ii)&nbsp;interest accrued before such voluntary cash payment, unless paid at the time of such voluntary cash payment. When the value is determined, the Delaware Court
of Chancery will direct the payment of such value, with interest thereon, if any, to Cooper Tire stockholders entitled to receive the same, forthwith in the case of holders of uncertificated stock or, in the case of holders of shares represented by
certificates, upon surrender of their stock certificates. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In determining the fair value, the Delaware Court of Chancery is required to take into account
all relevant factors. In <I>Weinberger v. UOP, Inc</I>., the Delaware Supreme Court discussed the factors that could be considered in determining fair value in an appraisal proceeding, stating that &#147;proof of value by any techniques or methods
which are generally considered acceptable in the financial community and otherwise admissible in court&#148; should be considered and that &#147;[f]air price obviously requires consideration of all relevant factors involving the value of a
company.&#148; The Delaware Supreme Court has stated that, in making this determination of fair value, the court must consider market value, asset value, dividends, earnings prospects, the nature of the enterprise and any other factors which were
known or which could be ascertained as of the date of the merger which throw any light on future prospects of the merged corporation. Section&nbsp;262 of the DGCL provides that fair value is to be &#147;exclusive of any element of value arising from
the accomplishment or expectation of the merger.&#148; In <I>Cede</I><I></I><I>&nbsp;&amp; Co. v. Technicolor, Inc.</I>, the Delaware Supreme Court stated that such exclusion is a &#147;narrow exclusion [that] does not encompass known elements of
value,&#148; but which rather applies only to the speculative elements of value arising from such accomplishment or expectation. In <I>Weinberger</I>, the Delaware Supreme Court construed Section&nbsp;262 of the DGCL to mean that &#147;elements of
future value, including the nature of the enterprise, which are known or susceptible of proof as of the date of the merger and not the product of speculation, may be considered.&#148; </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">An opinion of an investment banking firm as to the fairness from a financial point of view of the consideration payable in a merger is not an opinion as to,
and does not in any manner address, fair value under Section&nbsp;262 of the DGCL. <B>Although Cooper Tire believes that the merger consideration is fair, no</B><B></B><B>&nbsp;representation is made as to the outcome of the appraisal of fair value
as determined by the Delaware Court of Chancery.</B> The fair value of shares of Cooper Tire common stock as determined under Section&nbsp;262 of the DGCL could be greater than, the same as, or less than, the value of the merger consideration.
Neither Goodyear nor Cooper Tire anticipate offering more than the per share merger consideration to any Cooper Tire stockholder exercising appraisal rights and reserves the rights to make a voluntary cash payment pursuant to subsection (h)&nbsp;of
Section&nbsp;262 of the DGCL and to assert, in any appraisal proceeding, that, for purposes of Section&nbsp;262 of the DGCL, the &#147;fair value&#148; of a share of Cooper Tire common stock is less than the per share merger consideration. </P>

expenses, although, upon application of a stockholder, the Delaware Court of Chancery may order all or a portion of the expenses incurred by any stockholder in connection with the appraisal proceeding, including, without limitation, reasonable

the Delaware Court of Chancery. Such approval may be conditioned on the terms the Delaware Court of Chancery deems just; provided, however, that this will not affect the right of any Cooper Tire stockholder that has made an appraisal demand but who
has not commenced an appraisal proceeding or joined such proceeding as a named party to withdraw such stockholder&#146;s demand for appraisal and to accept the terms offered in the merger agreement within 60 days after the effective date of the
