(1) These shares, or units representing these shares, were acquired under the Visteon Invesment Plan and reported to me in my most recent plan statement.
(2) Each Restricted Stock Unit will be converted and distributed to me, without payment, in cash upon vesting and based upon the then current market value of a share of Visteon common stock, subject to tax withholding.
(3) The stock appreciation right is exercisable to the extent of 33% of the rights granted after one year from the date of grant, 66% in two years and in full after three years.
(4) These Visteon Stock Fund units were credit to my account under the Company's Deferred Compensation Plan, and were reported to me in my most recent plan statement. In general, these Visteon Stock Fund units will be converted and distributed to me in cash following termination of employment, based on the then current price of a Visteon stock fund unit, and the then current market value of a share of Visteon common stock.
(5) The Company terminated the Visteon Savings Parity Plan; as a result, all Visteon Stock Fund units were converted into and paid to holders in cash.
