Business Description of Business Part I Visteon Corporation (the "Company" or "Visteon") a global automotive technology company serving the mobility industry, dedicated to creating more enjoyable, connected, and safe driving experiences. Our platforms leverage proven, scalable hardware and software solutions that enable the digital, electric, and autonomous evolution of our global automotive customers, including Ford, BMW, Mazda, Volkswagen, Renault, Nissan, Daimler, General Motors, Stellantis, and Jaguar/Land Rover. Visteon products align with key industry trends and include digital instrument clusters, displays, Android-based infotainment systems, domain controllers, advanced driver assistance systems ("ADAS"), and battery management systems. Visteon is headquartered in Van Buren Township, Michigan, and has an international network of manufacturing operations, technical centers, and joint venture operations dedicated to the design, development, manufacture, and support of its product offerings and its global customers. The Company's manufacturing and engineering footprint is principally located in China, India, Japan, Portugal, Slovakia, and Mexico. The Company’s Industry The Company operates in the automotive industry, which is cyclical and highly sensitive to general economic conditions. The Company believes that future success in the automotive industry is, in part, dependent on alignment with customers to support their efforts to effectively meet the challenges associated with the following significant trends and developments in the global automotive industry: • • • • • Electronic content and connectivity - The electronic content of vehicles continues to increase due to various regulatory requirements and consumer demand for increased vehicle performance and functionality. The use of electronic components can reduce weight, expedite assembly, enhance fuel economy, improve emissions, increase safety, and enhance vehicle performance. These benefits coincide with vehicles becoming more electric, connected, and automated. Additionally, digital and portable technologies have dramatically influenced the lifestyle of today’s consumers, who expect products that enable such a lifestyle. Consequently, the vehicle cockpit is transforming into a fully digital environment with multi-display systems incorporating larger, curved, and complex displays and the consolidation of discrete electronic control units into a multi-core domain controller. Electric vehicles – The trend towards electrification continues to accelerate, driven by government incentives and standards, announced restrictions of internal combustion engine vehicles in multiple cities and countries, and the significant increase of investment in electrification by Original Equipment Manufacturers ("OEMs"). The shift to electric vehicles increases the digital content of a vehicle as the majority of cockpit electronics will be all-digital to support the new electrical architecture. In addition, all battery electric vehicles will require a battery management system to manage the rechargeable battery pack. Advanced driver assistance systems and autonomous driving - The industry continues to advance toward semi-autonomous and autonomous vehicles. The Society of Automotive Engineers has defined five levels of autonomy ranging from levels one and two with driver-assist functions whereby the driver is responsible for monitoring the environment, to level five with full autonomy under all conditions. Levels one and two are already popular in the market while levels three and above utilize a combination of sensors, radars, cameras and LiDARs, requiring sensor fusion and machine learning technologies, as the system assumes the role of monitoring the environment. Level three includes features such as highway pilot and parking assist technology, for which an increased market penetration rate is expected over the next several years. Safety and security - Governments continue to focus regulatory efforts on safer transportation. Accordingly, OEMs are working to improve occupant and pedestrian safety by incorporating more safety-oriented technology in their vehicles. Additionally, in-vehicle connectivity has increased the need for robust cybersecurity systems to protect data, applications, and associated infrastructure. Security features are evolving with advances in sensors and suppliers must enable the security/safety initiatives of their customers including the development of such new advances. Vehicle standardization - OEMs continue to standardize vehicle platforms on a global basis, resulting in a lower number of individual vehicle platforms, design cost savings, and further scale of economies through the production of a greater number of models from each platform. Having operations in the geographic markets in which OEMs produce global platforms enables suppliers to meet OEMs’ needs more economically and efficiently, thus making global coverage a source of significant competitive advantage for suppliers with a diversified global footprint. Additionally, OEMs are looking to 3 suppliers for increased collaboration to lower costs, reduce risks, and decrease overall time to market. Suppliers that can provide fully engineered systems and pre-assembled combinations of component parts are positioned to leverage the trend toward system sourcing. As vehicles become more connected and cockpits more digitized, suppliers that can deliver modular hardware architectures, “open” software architectures, and a software platform approach will be poised to help OEMs achieve greater reuse of validated hardware circuitry, design scalability, and faster development cycles.

The Company’s Customers The Company's ultimate customers are global vehicle manufacturers including BMW, Daimler, Ford, General Motors, Jaguar/Land Rover, Mazda, Nissan, Renault, Stellantis, and Volkswagen. The following is a summary of customers with a percentage of net sales greater than 10 percent: Ford BMW Percentage of Total Net Sales December 31, 2020 2021 22 % 11 % 22 % 11 % 2019 22 % 8 % The Company typically supplies products to OEM customers through purchase orders, which are generally governed by general terms and conditions established by each OEM. Although the terms and conditions vary from customer to customer, they typically contemplate a relationship under which customers place orders for their requirements of specific components supplied for particular vehicles but are not required to purchase any minimum quantities. Individual purchase orders can be cancelled for cause, non-performance, and, in most cases, insolvency or certain change in control events. Additionally, many of our OEM customers have the option to terminate contracts for convenience; this option permits the OEM customers to impose pressure on pricing during the life of the vehicle program or issue purchase orders for less than the duration of the vehicle program. This has the potential to reduce the Company’s profit margin and increases the risk of loss of future sales under those purchase contracts. 5 The Company manufactures and ships based on customer release schedules, normally provided on a weekly basis, which can vary based on OEM automotive production or dealer inventory levels. Although customer programs typically extend to future periods, and although there is an expectation that the Company will supply certain levels of OEM production in those future periods, customer agreements (including the applicable terms and conditions) do not necessarily constitute firm orders. The price related to these products are typically negotiated on an annual basis. Any subsequent price reductions are intended to take into account expected annual cost reductions to the Company of providing products and services to the customer, through such factors as manufacturing productivity enhancements, material cost reductions and design-related cost improvements. Certain products may be excluded from such reductions or experience price increases due to shortages of material or other increases in supply chain or other related costs. The Company has an aggressive cost control program that focuses on reducing its total costs intended to offset customer price reductions or negotiating recoveries for increases. However, there can be no assurance that the Company’s cost reduction or recovery efforts will be sufficient to fully offset such price changes. These relationships may extend over the life of the related vehicle. The terms and conditions generally require a warranty on products sold; in most cases, the warranty period is the same as the warranty offered by the OEM to the ultimate customer. The Company may also be required to share in all or part of recall costs if the OEM recalls vehicles for defects attributable to Visteon products. The Company’s Competition The automotive sector continues to remain highly competitive resulting from the ongoing industry consolidation. OEMs rigorously evaluate suppliers on the basis of financial viability, product quality, price competitiveness, technical expertise, development capability, new product innovation, reliability and timeliness of delivery, product design, manufacturing capability, flexibility, customer service, and overall management. The Company's primary independent competitors include, but are not limited to, Alpine Electronics, Aptiv PLC, Continental AG, Denso Corporation, Faurecia, Harman International Industries, Incorporated (a subsidiary of Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd.), Hitachi Ltd., Hyundai Mobis, Innolux Corporation, Marelli Holdings Co., Ltd., Nippon Seiki, Panasonic Corporation, Preh GmbH, Robert Bosch GmbH, and Vitesco Technologies. The Company’s Business Seasonality and Cyclicality Historically, the Company’s business has been moderately seasonal because its largest North American customers typically cease production for approximately two weeks in July for model year changeovers and approximately one week in December during the winter holidays. Customers in Europe historically shut down vehicle production during a portion of August and one week in December. In China, customers typically shut down approximately one week in early October and one week in January or February. Additionally, third-quarter automotive production is traditionally lower as new vehicle models enter production. However, in 2021 the standard cyclicality of the business was altered due to supply chain challenges creating roll shutdowns amongst multiple customer production facilities throughout the year. Environmental, Social, and Governance Attract and Retain The Company’s ability to sustain and grow its business requires the recruitment, retention and development of a highly skilled and diverse workforce. The Company’s Chief Human Resources Officer ("CHRO"), reporting directly to Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), oversees its global talent processes to attract, develop and retain its employees. To attract the best talent, the Company offers market competitive compensation and benefits around the globe, annual and long-term incentive programs, as well as health and wellness benefits. The Company also provides a variety of resources to help its employees grow in their current roles and build new skills. Hundreds of online courses are available in the Company’s learning management system where individual development is emphasized as part of the annual goal setting process. The Company continues to build tools to be used leaders to develop employees in their current role and create new opportunities within the organization to learn and grow. Because retention of the employee base is significant to its business strategy, executive management discusses it with the Board of Directors on a regular basis. Workforce Visteon’s strength comes from a workforce of approximately 10,000 employees operating in approximately 18 countries globally. Our workforce is globally distributed with 26% of employees located in the Americas, 32% in Europe, 19% in China, 6 and 23% in the Asia Pacific region. Visteon believes that all employees are leaders and expects leaders to drive operational and financial results and build strong teams. Many of the Company’s employees are members of industrial trade unions and confederations within their respective countries. Often these organizations operate under collectively bargained contracts that are not specific to any one employer. The Company constantly works to establish and maintain positive, cooperative relations with its unions and work representatives around the world. Diversity and Inclusion Diversity represents an environment where the contributions of all employees are encouraged and valued. As a global organization, the Company embraces human differences and harnesses the power of its employees’ varied backgrounds, cultures and experiences because it is the right thing to do for our people and it creates a competitive business advantage. As of December 31, 2021, the percentage of our global workforce represented by females was approximately 40%. The Company encourages many forms of communication such as global town hall employee meetings, informal small-group employee discussions, and an open-door policy so all employees have direct access to senior leadership and have the opportunity to ask questions, make suggestions, and provide input. As stated in one of our four core beliefs and values, “We treat each other with respect and embrace our differences.” Workplace Safety The Company requires protective equipment, enforces comprehensive safety policies and procedures, and encourages its employees and leaders to continually look for ways to improve workplace safety. It has implemented and maintains a health and safety management system that is certified to the OHSAS 18001 or ISO 45001 standard. The Company provides regular health and safety reports to the Board of Directors including updates on the return to work health and safety protocols globally as a result of COVID-19. To protect its employees and maintain operations during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company implemented a number of new health-related measures including a requirement to wear face-masks at all times while on its property, increased hygiene, cleaning and sanitizing procedures, social-distancing, restrictions on visitors to its facilities, and limiting in-person meetings. Regulation Visteon operates in a constantly evolving global regulatory environment and is subject to numerous and varying regulatory requirements for its product performance and material content. Visteon’s strives to identify potential regulatory and quality risks early in the design and development process and proactively manage them throughout the product lifecycle through the use of routine assessments, protocols, standards, performance measures, and audits. New regulations and changes to existing regulations are managed in collaboration with the OEM customers and implemented through Visteon’s global systems and procedures designed to ensure compliance with existing laws and regulations. Visteon works collaboratively with a number of stakeholder groups including government agencies, customers, and suppliers to proactively engage in federal, state, and international public policy processes. Environmental, Health, Safety, and Legal Matters Visteon is involved in various lawsuits, claims and proceedings related to the operation of its businesses, including those pertaining to product liability, environmental, safety and health, intellectual property, employment, commercial and contractual matters, tax, and various other matters. Although the outcome of such lawsuits, claims and proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty and some may be disposed of unfavorably to Visteon, it is management's opinion that none of these will have a material adverse effect on Visteon's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. Costs related to such matters were not material to the periods presented. Further details are provided in Part II, Item 8 of this Form 10-K in Note 19, "Commitments and Contingencies," of the notes to consolidated financial statements. Board Oversight of Environmental, Social, and Governance Practices The Company and its Board of Directors believe positive environmental, social and governance-related business practices strengthens the Company, increases its connection with the stockholders and helps it to better serve its customers and the communities in which it operates. The Company’s commitment to social responsibility extends to the environment, anti-corruption and trade compliance, responsible sourcing, human rights, labor practices, and worker health and safety. In light of the continued importance of these matters, the Board of Directors and Management have developed a multi-year road map to 7 enhance the Company’s environmental, social and governance-related programs and disclosures, including assessment of the potential risks associated with climate change. This road map includes environmental targets for 2025 aimed at reducing energy consumption, solid waste, water and the reduction of scope 1 and scope 2 CO2 emissions through the use of renewable energy. Management provides regular reports and presentations to the Corporate Sustainability and Governance Committee and the full Board of Directors has oversight of the Company’s environmental and social initiatives. The Company’s Product Research and Development The Company’s research and development efforts are intended to maintain leadership positions in core products and provide the Company with a competitive edge as it seeks additional business with new and existing customers. The Company also works with technology development partners, including customers, to develop technological capabilities and new products and applications. The Company’s Intellectual Property The Company owns significant intellectual property, including a number of patents, copyrights, proprietary tools and technologies, trade secrets, and numerous licensing arrangements. Although the Company’s intellectual property plays an important role in maintaining its competitive position, no single patent, copyright, proprietary tool or technology, trade secret or license, or group of related patents, copyrights, proprietary tools or technologies, trade secrets or licenses is, in the opinion of management, of such value to the Company that its business would be materially affected by the expiration or termination thereof. The Company’s general policy is to apply for patents on an ongoing basis, in appropriate countries, on its patentable developments that are considered to have commercial significance. The Company also views its name and mark as significant to its business as a whole. In addition, the Company holds rights in a number of other trade names and marks applicable to certain of its businesses and products that it views as important to such businesses and products. The Company’s International Operations Financial information about sales and net property by major geographic region can be found in Note 20, "Segment Information and Revenue Recognition," to the Company's consolidated financial statements included in Part II, Item 8 of this Form 10-K. The Company’s Raw Materials and Suppliers Raw materials used by the Company in the manufacture of its products include electronics components, resins, and precious metals. While generally the supply of the materials used are available from numerous sources, semiconductor suppliers and silicon wafer production is concentrated. In general, the Company does not carry inventories of raw materials in excess of those reasonably required to meet production and shipping schedules. The Company monitors its supply base and endeavors to work with suppliers and customers to mitigate the impact of potential material shortages and supply disruptions. The Company, along with automotive companies around the world, has experienced a shortage in semiconductors as a result of suppliers inability to rapidly reallocate production to serve the automotive industry during a time of increased demand. The Company's semiconductor suppliers, along with most automotive component supply companies that use semiconductors, have been unable to fully meet the vehicle production demands of our customers due to events which are outside the Company's control, including but not limited to, the COVID-19 pandemic, the global semiconductor shortage, and other extraordinary events. The Company is working closely with suppliers and customers to attempt to minimize potential adverse impacts of these events. The automotive supply industry is subject to inflationary pressures with respect to raw materials, labor and associated freight costs, which can place operational and financial burdens on the entire supply chain. Accordingly, the Company continues to take actions with its customers and suppliers to mitigate the impact of these inflationary pressures in the future. Actions to mitigate inflationary pressures with customers include collaboration on alternative product designs and material specifications, contractual price escalation clauses, and negotiated customer recoveries. Actions to mitigate inflationary pressures with suppliers include aggregation of purchase requirements to achieve optimal volume benefits, negotiation of cost-reductions, and identification of more cost competitive suppliers. While these actions are designed to offset the impact of inflationary pressures, the Company cannot provide assurance that it will be successful in fully offsetting increased costs resulting from inflationary pressures. 8 The Company’s Website and Access to Available Information The Company’s current and periodic reports filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including amendments to those reports, may be obtained through its internet website at www.visteon.com free of charge as soon as reasonably practicable after the Company files these reports with the SEC.

A printed copy of the Company’s Ethics and Integrity Policy may be requested by contacting the Company’s Investor Relations department in writing at One Village Center Drive, Van Buren Township, MI 48111; by phone (734) 710-7893; or via email at investor@visteon.com. Item 1A. Risk Factors The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones facing the Company. Risks attributable to all registrants are not included below. Additional risks and uncertainties, including those not presently known or that the Company believes to be immaterial, also may adversely affect the Company’s results of operations and financial condition. Should any such risks and uncertainties develop into actual events, these developments could have material adverse effects on the Company’s business and financial results. Operations Related Risk Factors The Company could be negatively impacted by the supplier shortages, other supplier distress, or suppliers pricing increases In an effort to manage and reduce the costs of purchased goods and services, the Company, like many suppliers and automakers, has been consolidating its supply base. As a result, the Company is dependent on single or limited sources of supply for certain components used in the manufacture of its products including semiconductor chips which are integral components of new vehicles and are embedded in multiple vehicle systems including automotive and cockpit electronics. In 2021, the Company experienced semiconductor shortages and expects such shortages to continue in 2022. If such shortages of semiconductors or other critical components from other suppliers continue longer than anticipated, or worsen, it will impact the Company's ability to meet its production schedules for some of its key products or to ship such products to its customers in a timely fashion. Furthermore, unfavorable economic or industry conditions could result in financial distress within the Company's supply base, thereby increasing the risk of supply disruption. Such disruptions could be caused by any one of a myriad of potential problems, such as closures of one of the Company’s or its suppliers’ plants or critical manufacturing lines due to strikes, mechanical breakdowns, electrical outages, fires, explosions, or political upheaval, as well as logistical complications due to weather, global climate change, volcanic eruptions, or other natural or nuclear disasters, mechanical failures, delayed customs processing, the spread of an infectious disease, virus or other widespread illness and more. Additionally, as the Company grows in best cost countries, the risk for such disruptions is heightened. The lack of even a single small subcomponent necessary to manufacture one of the Company’s products, for whatever reason, could force the Company to cease production, even for a prolonged period. Similarly, a potential quality issue could force the Company to halt deliveries while it validates the products. Even where products are ready to be shipped, or have been shipped, delays may arise before they reach the customer. The Company’s customers may halt or delay production for the same reason if one of their other suppliers fails to deliver necessary components. This may cause the Company’s customers, in turn to suspend their orders, or instruct us to suspend delivery, of our products, which may adversely affect our financial performance. If the Company were to fail to make timely deliveries in accordance with contractual obligations, the Company generally must absorb its own costs for identifying and solving the “root cause” problem as well as expeditiously producing replacement components or products. Generally, the Company must also carry the costs associated with “catching up,” such as overtime and premium freight. Additionally, if the Company is the cause for a customer being forced to halt production, the customer may seek to recoup all of its losses and expenses from the Company. These losses and expenses could be significant, and may include consequential losses such as lost profits. Any supply-chain disruption, however small, could potentially cause the complete shutdown of an assembly line of one of the Company’s customers, and any such shutdown could lead to material claims of compensation. The Company continues to work closely with suppliers and customers to minimize any potential adverse impacts of the semiconductor supply shortage and monitor the availability of semiconductor microchips and other component parts and raw materials, customer vehicle production schedules and any other supply chain inefficiencies that may arise, due to this or any 9 other issue. However, if the Company is not able to mitigate the semiconductor shortage impact, any direct or indirect supply chain disruptions may have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The Company has experienced and may in the future experience supplier price increases that could negatively affect our operations and profitability. The price increases are often driven by raw material pricing and availability, component or part availability, manufacturing capacity, industry allocations, logistics capacity, natural disasters or pandemics, the effects of climate change, and significant changes in the financial or business condition of our suppliers. The Company’s business, results of operations, and financial condition have been, and may continue to be, adversely affected by the recent COVID-19 pandemic The COVID-19 pandemic poses the risk that the Company or its affiliates and joint ventures, employees, suppliers, customers, and others may be restricted or prevented from conducting business activities for indefinite or intermittent periods of time, including as a result of employee health and safety concerns, shutdowns, shelter in place orders, travel restrictions, and other actions and restrictions that may be requested or mandated by governmental authorities. In addition, the Company has experienced, and may continue to experience, disruptions or delays in our supply chain as a result of such actions, which is likely to result in higher supply chain costs to us in order to maintain the supply of materials and components for our products. While the Company has implemented measures to mitigate the impact on its results of operations, there can be no assurance that these measures will be successful. The Company cannot predict the degree to which, or the period over which, its financials and operations will be affected by this outbreak and preventative measures, and the effects could be material. The Company may also experience impacts from market downturns and changes in consumer behavior related to pandemic fears and impacts on its workforce as a result of COVID-19. The extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak continues to impact the Company’s financial condition will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new government actions or restrictions, new information that may emerge concerning the severity of COVID-19, the longevity of COVID-19, mutation of COVID-19 variants, and the impact of COVID-19 on economic activity. Even after the COVID-19 pandemic subsides, the Company may continue to experience adverse impacts on its business and financial performance as a result of its global economic impact. To the extent the COVID-19 pandemic materially adversely affects the Company’s business and financial results, it may also have the effect of significantly heightening many of the other risks associated with the Company’s business, liquidity, and indebtedness. The Company’s substantial international operations make it vulnerable to risks associated with doing business in foreign countries The Company has manufacturing and distribution facilities in many foreign locations. International operations are subject to certain risks inherent in doing business abroad, including, but not limited to: changes to international trade agreements; local economic conditions, expropriation and nationalization, foreign exchange rate fluctuations, and currency controls; • • • withholding, border, and other taxes on remittances and other payments by subsidiaries; • • • • • investment restrictions or requirements; export and import restrictions, including increases in border tariffs; the ability to effectively enforce intellectual property rights; new or additional governmental sanctions on doing business with or in certain countries or with certain persons; and increases in working capital requirements related to long supply chains. Additionally, the Company’s global operations may also be adversely affected by political events, domestic or international terrorist events, and hostilities or complications due to natural or other disasters. These or any further political or governmental developments or health concerns in Mexico, China, or other countries in which the Company operates or where its suppliers are located could result in social, economic, and labor instability. These uncertainties could have a material adverse effect on the continuity of the Company’s business, results of operations, and financial condition. Despite recent trade negotiations between the U.S. and Chinese governments and between the U.S. and European governments, given the uncertainty regarding the scope and duration of the imposed tariffs, as well as the potential for additional tariffs or 10 trade barriers by the U.S., China or other countries, the Company can provide no assurance that any strategies we implement to mitigate the impact of such tariffs or other trade actions will be successful. The Company has invested significantly and is expected to continue to invest significantly in joint ventures with other parties to conduct business in China and elsewhere in Asia. These investments may include manufacturing operations, and technical centers as well as research and development activities, to support anticipated growth in the region. If the Company is not able to strengthen existing relationships, secure additional customers, and develop market- relevant electrification, advanced driver assistance and autonomous vehicle technologies, it may fail to realize expected rates of return on these investments. The Company’s ability to repatriate funds from these joint ventures depends not only upon their uncertain cash flows and profits but also upon the terms of particular agreements with the Company’s joint venture partners and maintenance of the legal and political status quo. As a result, the Company’s exposure to the risks described above is substantial. The likelihood of such occurrences and its potential effect on the Company vary from country to country and are unpredictable. However, any such occurrences could be harmful to the Company’s business, profitability, and financial condition. The Company’s ability to effectively operate could be hindered if it fails to attract and retain key personnel The Company’s ability to operate its business and implement its strategies effectively depends, in part, on the efforts of its executive officers and other key employees. In addition, the Company’s future success will depend on, among other factors, the ability to attract and retain qualified personnel, particularly engineers and other employees with critical expertise and skills that support key customers and products or in emerging regions. The loss of the services of any key employees or the failure to attract or retain other qualified personnel could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business. The Company may incur significant restructuring charges The Company has taken, and expects to take, restructuring actions to realign its engineering organization and to realign and resize its production capacity and cost structure to meet current and projected operational and market requirements. The extent to which these strategies will achieve the desired efficiencies and goals in 2022 and beyond is uncertain because their success depends on a number of factors, some of which are beyond the Company’s control. Charges related to these actions could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, operating results, and cash flows. Moreover, there can be no assurances that any future restructuring will be completed as planned or achieve the desired results. Work stoppages and similar events could significantly disrupt the Company’s business Because the automotive industry relies heavily on just-in-time delivery of components during the assembly and manufacture of vehicles, a work stoppage at one or more of the Company’s manufacturing and assembly facilities could have material adverse effects on the business. Similarly, if one or more of the Company’s customers were to experience a work stoppage, that customer would likely halt or limit purchases of the Company’s products, which could result in the shutdown of the related manufacturing facilities. A significant disruption in the supply of a key component due to a work stoppage at one of the Company’s suppliers or any other supplier could have the same consequences, and accordingly, have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial results. Industry and Competition Related Risk Factors The Company may not realize sales represented by awarded business The Company estimates awarded business using certain assumptions, including projected future sales volumes. The OEM customers generally do not guarantee production volumes. In addition, awarded business may include business under arrangements that OEM customers have the right to terminate without penalty. Therefore, the Company’s actual sales volumes, and thus the ultimate amount of revenue that it derives from such sales, are not committed. If actual production orders from its customers are not consistent with the projections used by the Company in calculating the amount of its awarded business, the Company could realize substantially less revenue over the life of these projects than the projected estimate. The Company must continue to develop, introduce, and achieve market acceptance of new and enhanced products in order to grow its sales in the future 11 The growth of the Company's business will be dependent on the demand for innovative automotive electronics products, including but not limited to electrification, advanced driver assistance and autonomous vehicle technologies. In order to increase sales in current markets and gain entry into new markets, the Company must innovate to maintain and improve existing products, including software, while successfully developing and introducing distinctive new and enhanced products that anticipate changing customer and consumer preferences and capitalize upon emerging software technologies. However, the Company may experience difficulties that delay or prevent the development, introduction, or market acceptance of its new or enhanced products, or undiscovered software errors, bugs, and defects in its products may injure the Company's reputation. Furthermore, these new technologies have also attracted increased competition from outside the traditional automotive industry, and any of these competitors may develop and introduce technologies that gain greater customer or consumer acceptance, which could adversely affect the future growth of the Company. The automotive industry is cyclical and significant declines in the production levels of the Company’s major customers could reduce the Company’s sales and harm its profitability Demand for the Company’s products is directly related to the automotive vehicle production of the Company’s major customers. Automotive sales and production are cyclical and can be affected by general economic or industry conditions, labor relations issues, fuel prices, regulatory requirements, government initiatives, trade agreements, the cost and availability of credit, and other factors. Due to overall global economic conditions, including semiconductor shortages, in 2021, the automotive industry experienced constrained production schedules. The discontinuation or loss of business, or lack of commercial success, with respect to a particular product for which the Company is a significant supplier could reduce the Company’s sales and harm its profitability Although the Company has purchase orders from many of its customers, these purchase orders generally provide for the supply of a customer’s annual requirements for a particular vehicle model and assembly plant, or in some cases, for the supply of a customer’s requirements for the life of a particular vehicle model, rather than for the purchase of a specific quantity of products. In addition, certain customers have communicated an intent to manufacture components internally that are currently produced by outside suppliers, such as the Company. If the Company's OEM customers successfully insource products currently manufactured by the Company the discontinuation or loss of business for products which the Company is a significant supplier could reduce the Company’s sales and harm the Company’s profitability. Escalating price pressures from customers may adversely affect the Company’s business Downward pricing pressures by automotive manufacturers, while characteristic of the automotive industry, are increasing. Virtually all automakers have implemented aggressive price-reduction initiatives and objectives each year with their suppliers, and such actions are expected to continue in the future. In addition, estimating such amounts is subject to risk and uncertainties because any price reductions are a result of negotiations and other factors. Accordingly, suppliers must be able to reduce their operating costs in order to maintain profitability. The Company has taken steps to reduce its operating costs and other actions to offset customer price reductions; however, price reductions have impacted the Company’s sales and profit margins and are expected to continue to do so in the future. If the Company is unable to offset customer price reductions in the future through improved operating efficiencies, new manufacturing processes, sourcing alternatives, and other cost-reduction initiatives, the Company’s results of operations and financial condition will likely be adversely affected. The Company is highly dependent on Ford Motor Company and decreases in this customer’s vehicle production volumes would adversely affect the Company Ford is one of the Company’s largest ultimate customers and accounted for 22% of sales for each of the years 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Accordingly, any change in Ford's vehicle production volumes may have a significant impact on the Company’s sales volume and profitability. Product Related Risk Factors The Company's inability to effectively manage the timing, quality, and costs of new program launches could adversely affect its financial performance 12 In connection with the award of new business, the Company often obligates itself to deliver new products and services that are subject to its customers’ timing, performance, and quality standards. Additionally, as a Tier 1 supplier, the Company must effectively coordinate the activities of numerous suppliers in order to launch programs successfully. Given the complexity of new program launches, especially involving new and innovative technologies, the Company may experience difficulties managing product quality, timeliness, and associated costs. In addition, new program launches require a significant ramp up of costs; however, the sales related to these new programs generally are dependent upon the timing and success of the introduction of new vehicles by the Company's customers. The Company's inability to effectively manage the timing, quality, and costs of these new program launches could adversely affect its results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows from operations. Warranty claims, product liability claims, and product recalls could harm the Company’s business, results of operations, and financial condition The Company faces the inherent business risk of exposure to warranty and product liability claims in the event that its products fail to perform as expected or such failure results, or is alleged to result, in bodily injury or property damage (or both). In addition, if any of the Company’s designed products are defective or are alleged to be defective, the Company may be required to participate in a recall campaign. The Company’s products contain increasingly significant amounts of software and a successful cyberattack on such products could cause materially adverse effects on the Company’s business, results of operations, and reputation. In addition, as the Company expands its electrification product offering such products may present a different risk profile. As suppliers become more integrally involved in the vehicle design process and assume more of the vehicle assembly functions, automakers are increasingly expecting them to warrant their products and are increasingly looking to suppliers for contributions when faced with product liability claims or recalls. A successful warranty or product liability claim against the Company, or a requirement that the Company participate in a product recall campaign, could have materially adverse effects on the Company’s business, results of operations, and financial condition. Developments or assertions by or against the Company relating to intellectual property rights could materially impact its business The Company owns significant intellectual property, including a number of patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets and is involved in numerous licensing arrangements. The Company’s intellectual property plays an important role in maintaining its competitive position in a number of the markets served. The Company may utilize intellectual property in its products that requires a license from a third-party. While the Company believes that such licenses generally can be obtained, there is no assurance that the necessary licenses can be obtained on commercially acceptable terms or at all. Failure to obtain the right to use third-party intellectual property could preclude the Company from selling certain products and have materially adverse effects on the Company’s business, results of operations, and financial condition. Developments or assertions by or against the Company relating to intellectual property rights could materially impact the Company’s business. The Company also derives significant revenue from countries outside the U.S. (including China) and significant intellectual property assets are licensed to joint ventures and customers in foreign jurisdictions. While the Company is not aware of any material intellectual property theft or forced transfer and believes it has appropriate protections in place, if such action were to occur it could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, results of operations, and financial condition. In addition, the Company has continued to see an increase in patent claims related to connectivity-enabled products where other patent-holding companies are seeking royalties and often enter into litigation based on patent infringement allegations. Significant technological developments by others also could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, results of operations, and financial condition. Privacy and security concerns relating to the Company's current or future products and services could damage its reputation and deter current and potential users from using them The Company may gain access to sensitive, confidential, or personal data or information that is subject to privacy and security laws, regulations, and customer-imposed controls. Concerns about the Company's practices with regard to the collection, use, disclosure, or security of personal information or other privacy related matters, even if unfounded, could damage its reputation and adversely affect its operating results. Furthermore, regulatory authorities around the world are considering a number of legislative and regulatory proposals concerning cybersecurity and data protection. In addition, the interpretation and application of consumer and data protection laws in the U.S., Europe, and elsewhere are often uncertain and in flux. Complying with these various laws could cause the Company to incur substantial costs. 13 Tax Related Risk Factors The Company’s expected annual effective tax rate could be volatile and could materially change as a result of changes in mix of earnings and other factors, including changes in tax laws and tax audits. We are subject to income taxes in the U.S. and various international jurisdictions. Changes in tax rates or tax laws by U.S. and international jurisdictions and tax audits could adversely impact Visteon’s financial results. The Company is in a position whereby losses incurred in certain tax jurisdictions generally provide no current financial statement benefit. In addition, certain jurisdictions have statutory rates greater than or less than the United States statutory rate. As such, changes in the mix and source of earnings between jurisdictions, including changes in tax rates in those jurisdictions, could have a significant impact on the Company’s overall effective tax rate in future periods. Additionally, in the ordinary course of business, we are subject to examinations by various tax authorities. Tax authorities in various jurisdictions could also open new examinations and expand existing examinations for which the outcomes cannot be predicted with certainty. Furthermore, changes in U.S. or foreign tax laws and regulations, or their interpretation and application, could also have a significant impact on the Company’s overall effective rate in future periods. The Company may not be able to fully utilize its U.S. net operating losses and other tax attributes The Company has net operating losses ("NOLs") and other tax attributes which could be limited if there is a subsequent change of ownership. If the Company were to have a change of ownership within the meaning of IRC Sections 382 and 383, its NOLs and other tax attributes could be limited to an amount equal to its market capitalization at the time of the ownership change multiplied by the federal long-term tax exempt rate. The Company cannot provide any assurance that such an ownership change will not occur, in which case the availability of the Company's NOLs and other tax attributes could be significantly limited or possibly eliminated. Certain tax benefit preservation provisions of its corporate documents could delay or prevent a change of control, even if that change would be beneficial to stockholders. The Company may not be able to fully utilize its U.S. net operating losses and other tax attributes The Company has net operating losses ("NOLs") and other tax attributes which could be limited if there is a subsequent change of ownership. If the Company were to have a change of ownership within the meaning of IRC Sections 382 and 383, its NOLs and other tax attributes could be limited to an amount equal to its market capitalization at the time of the ownership change multiplied by the federal long-term tax exempt rate. The Company cannot provide any assurance that such an ownership change will not occur, in which case the availability of the Company's NOLs and other tax attributes could be significantly limited or possibly eliminated. Certain tax benefit preservation provisions of its corporate documents could delay or prevent a change of control, even if that change would be beneficial to stockholders. Market Related Risk Factors The Company is subject to significant foreign currency risks and foreign exchange exposure As a result of Visteon's global presence, a significant portion of the Company's revenues and expenses are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. The Company is therefore subject to foreign currency risks and foreign exchange exposure. The Company's primary exposures are to the euro, Chinese renminbi, Brazilian real, Indian rupee, and Bulgarian lev. While the Company employs financial instruments to mitigate transactional foreign exchange exposure, including multi-year contracts, exchange rates are difficult to predict, and such actions may not completely insulate the Company from those exposures. As a result, volatility in certain exchange rates could adversely impact Visteon financial results and comparability of results from period to period. General Risk Factors A disruption in the Company's information technology systems could adversely affect its business and financial performance The Company relies on the accuracy, capacity, and security of its information technology systems as well as those of its customers, suppliers, partners, and service providers to conduct its business. Despite the security and risk-prevention measures the Company has implemented, the Company's systems could be breached, damaged, or otherwise interrupted by a system failure, cyber-attack, malicious computer software (malware), unauthorized physical or electronic access, or other natural or 14 man-made incidents or disasters. The Company is also susceptible to security breaches that may go undetected. Such a breach or interruption could result in business disruption, theft of the Company intellectual property or trade secrets, and unauthorized access to personal information. To the extent that business is interrupted or data is lost, destroyed, or inappropriately used or disclosed, such disruptions could adversely affect the Company’s competitive position, relationships with customers, financial condition, operating results, and cash flows. The Company is involved from time to time in legal proceedings and commercial or contractual disputes, which could have an adverse effect on its business, results of operations, and financial position The Company is involved in legal proceedings and commercial or contractual disputes that, from time to time, are significant. These are typically claims that arise in the normal course of business including, without limitation, commercial or contractual disputes (including disputes with suppliers), intellectual property matters, personal injury claims, and employment matters. No assurances can be given that such proceedings and claims will not have a material adverse impact on the Company’s profitability and financial position. Climate change, climate change regulations and greenhouse effects could adversely impact the Company’s operations and markets Increased attention to climate change and its association with greenhouse gas emissions, expectations for companies to establish short and long-term emissions reduction targets, and changes in consumer preferences may result in increased costs, reduced profits, risks associated with new regulatory requirements and the potential for increased litigation and governmental investigations. The U.S. federal government, certain U.S. states, and certain other countries and regions have adopted or are considering legislation or regulation imposing overall caps or taxes on greenhouse gas emissions from certain sectors including automotive. Failure to comply with any legislation or regulation could potentially result in substantial fines, criminal sanctions, or operational changes. Moreover, even without such legislation or regulation, increased awareness of, or any adverse publicity regarding, the effects of greenhouse gases could harm the Company’s reputation or reduce customer demand for our products and services. Additionally, as severe weather events become increasingly common, operations of the Company, its customers, and/or suppliers may be disrupted, which could result in increased operational costs or reduced demand for products and services. While the Company has invested in administration of programs and physical loss prevention improvements to mitigate the risk of natural disasters causing disruption to its ability to serve its customers and communities in times of need, extended periods of disruptions could have an adverse effect on its results of operations. The Company’s pension expense and funding levels of pension plans could materially deteriorate, or the Company may be unable to generate sufficient excess cash flow to meet increased pension benefit obligations The Company’s assumptions used to calculate pension obligations as of the annual measurement date directly impact the expense to be recognized in future periods. While the Company’s management believes that these assumptions are appropriate, significant differences in actual experience or significant changes in these assumptions may materially affect the Company’s pension obligations and future expense. For more information on sensitivities to changing assumptions, please see “Critical Accounting Estimates” in Item 7 and Note 12, “Employee Benefit Plans” in Part II, Item 8 of this Form 10-K. Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments None Item 2. Properties The Company's principal executive offices are located in Van Buren Township, Michigan.

Executive Summary Strategic Priorities Visteon is a global automotive technology company serving the mobility industry, dedicated to creating more enjoyable, connected, and safe driving experiences. Our platforms leverage proven, scalable hardware and software solutions that enable the digital, electric and autonomous evolution of our global automotive customers. The automotive mobility market is expected to grow faster than underlying vehicle production volumes as the vehicle shifts from analog to digital and towards device and cloud connected, electric vehicles, and vehicles with more advanced safety features. The Company has laid out the following strategic priorities: • • • Technology Innovation - The Company is an established global leader in cockpit electronics and is positioned to provide solutions as the industry transitions to the next generation automotive cockpit experience. The cockpit is becoming fully digital, connected, automated, learning, and voice enabled. Visteon's broad portfolio of cockpit electronics technology, the industry's first wireless battery management system, and the development of the DriveCore™ advanced safety platform positions Visteon to support these macro trends in the automotive industry. Long-Term Growth - The Company has continued to win business at a rate that exceeds current sales levels by demonstrating product quality, technical and development capability, new product innovation, reliability, timeliness, product design, manufacturing capability, and flexibility, as well as overall customer service. Enhance Shareholder Returns While Maintaining a Strong Balance Sheet - The Company has returned approximately $3.3 billion to shareholders since 2015. In addition, the Company has continued to maintain a strong balance sheet to withstand near-term industry volatility while providing a foundation for future growth and shareholder returns. 21 Financial Results The pie charts below highlight the sales breakdown for Visteon for the year ended December 31, 2021. *Regional sales are based on the geographic region where sale originates and not where customer is located (excludes inter-regional eliminations). Global Automotive Market Conditions and Production Levels The automotive industry has been negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and the ongoing semiconductor shortage. Throughout 2020, demand for semiconductors changed significantly as a result of the pandemic. Automotive demand dropped sharply in the first half of 2020 due to COVID-related shutdowns. At the same time, demand for consumer electronics increased due to work from home and the proliferation of connected devices. In the second half of 2020, automotive production recovered faster than expected resulting in demand for 200-millimeter wafers exceeding supply and setting the stage for a tight supply environment in 2021. In the first half of 2021, semiconductor supply was further impacted by a winter storm in Texas and a fire at the facility of a semiconductor supplier in Japan. In addition, COVID outbreaks in the middle of 2021 in Southeast Asia caused several back-end processing facilities that perform assembly and test of semiconductors to be negatively impacted. Industry vehicle volumes are expected to increase in 2022 due to strong consumer demand and historically low inventory levels at auto dealerships. However, vehicle production volumes will continue to be negatively impacted due to on-going shortages of semiconductors. The magnitude of the impact on the financial statements and results of operations and cash flows will depend on the evolution of the semiconductor supply shortage, related plant production schedules, and supply chain impacts. Company Highlights Visteon continued to focus on execution throughout 2021, building a foundation of sustainable growth, margin expansion, and cash flow generation. To address the near-term challenges created from the worldwide semiconductor and supply chain shortages, Visteon implemented a series of proactive initiatives aimed at increasing product availability for our customers while minimizing the impact of incremental costs to the business. Early in 2021, Visteon set up a cross-functional task force which implemented several actions including the purchase of semiconductors through brokers and distributors, expedited logistics, and engineering redesigns while leading calls with customers and suppliers to minimizing manufacturing downtime. In addition, Visteon worked with our customers to pass along the elevated costs caused by semiconductor shortages. As a result of these actions, Visteon reported sales of $2,773 million, a year-over-year increase of 7% when excluding the positive impact from currency. This represents a continued out-performance compared to industry and customer production volumes. Adjusted EBITDA was $228 million, or 8.2% of sales. Visteon continued to build the foundation for sustainable growth launching 43 new products during 2021 including the industry's first wireless battery management system ("BMS").

Favorable volumes and net new business increased net sales by $185 million. Customer pricing increased net sales by $8 million, primarily due to customer recoveries. Favorable currency increased net sales by $52 million, primarily attributable to the euro, Brazilian real, and Chinese renminbi. Other cost performance, primarily related to design changes, reduced sales by $20 million. Cost of sales increased $216 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, when compared with 2020. Volume, mix and net new business increased cost of sales by $168 million. Foreign currency increased cost of sales by $41 million, primarily 23 attributable to the euro, Brazilian real, and Chinese renminbi. Net engineering costs, excluding currency, decreased cost of sales by $20 million. Unfavorable cost performance, design changes and other increased cost of sales by $27 million primarily due supply chain and material cost impacts associated with the worldwide semiconductor supply shortage and the non-recurrence of certain 2020 temporary austerity measures. A summary of net engineering costs is shown below: (In millions) Gross engineering costs Engineering recoveries Engineering costs, net Year Ended December 31, 2020 2021 $ $ (325) $ 134 (191) $ (335) 134 (201) Gross engineering costs relate to forward model program development and advanced engineering activities and exclude contractually reimbursable engineering costs. Net engineering costs of $191 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, including the impacts of currency, were $10 million lower than the same period of 2020. This decrease is primarily related to the benefits of previously announced restructuring actions and ongoing cost reduction efforts, partially offset by the reclassification of expenses in 2021 related to program management from selling, general, and administrative to align with the Company's optimized structure. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $175 million, or 6.3% of net sales, and $193 million, or 7.6% of net sales, during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Selling, general, and administrative expenses decreased due to the reclassification of expenses in 2021 related to program management to gross engineering costs to align with the Company's optimized structure and restructuring savings, partially offset by the non- recurrence of 2020 temporary austerity measures. Restructuring and Impairment During 2021, the Company approved various global restructuring actions impacting engineering, administrative, and manufacturing functions primarily in South America and Europe to improve efficiency and rationalize the Company's footprint. The Company recorded $4 million of restructuring expense for cash severance, and termination costs for the year ended December 31, 2021 related to these programs. During 2020, the Company approved various restructuring programs impacting engineering, administrative, and manufacturing functions to improve efficiency and rationalize the Company’s footprint. The Company recorded $1 million and $76 million of restructuring expense for cash severance, retention, and termination costs for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively related to these programs. During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company identified an impairment of certain long-lived assets in Brazil due to rising costs and deteriorating business conditions. As a result, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $9 million to write-down property and equipment to its fair value as of December 31, 2021. Interest Expense, Net Net interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2021, was $8 million, representing a decrease of $3 million as compared to 2020. The decrease is primarily due to 2020 interest expense related to borrowings on the Company's $400 million revolving credit facility. 24 Equity in Net Income of Non-Consolidated Affiliates Equity in net income of non-consolidated affiliates was $6 million for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. Other Income, Net Other income, net consists of the following: (In millions) Pension financing benefits, net Pension settlement charge Year Ended December 31, 2020 2021 $ $ 18 $ — 18 $ 14 (5) 9 During 2020, the Company transferred a portion of the benefit obligation related to its defined benefit U.S. pension plan to a third-party issuer. The transaction met the criteria for settlement accounting, and accordingly the Company recognized a $5 million pension settlement charge in the fourth quarter of 2020. Income Taxes The Company's provision for income taxes was $31 million for year ended December 31, 2021, an increase of $3 million when compared with 2020. The increase in tax expense reflects $7 million attributable to changes in the year-over-year mix of earnings and differing tax rates between jurisdictions which reflects the overall increase in earnings in jurisdictions where the Company is profitable and withholding taxes, as well as $3 million related to the year- over-year impact of various tax law changes primarily in India and uncertain tax positions. The increases described above were partially offset by the non- recurrence of $7 million related to the reassessment of the valuation allowances in connection with the realization of deferred tax assets in Germany and Brazil. Other changes in the Company’s deferred tax asset valuation allowances did not materially impact net tax expense during the years ended December 31, 2021 or 2020. Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Visteon Net income attributable to Visteon was $41 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to net loss of $56 million for 2020. The increase of $97 million is primarily related to an increase in gross margin of $9 million, decrease in selling, general, and administrative expense of $18 million, and a decrease in restructuring expense of $71 million. Other one time changes include a 2021 impairment which reduced net income by $9 million partially offset by the non-recurrence of a 2020 pension settlement charge of $5 million. Adjusted EBITDA Adjusted EBITDA was $228 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, representing an increase of $36 million when compared with Adjusted EBITDA of $192 million for 2020. Favorable volumes and mix increased Adjusted EBITDA by $17 million. Foreign currency increased Adjusted EBITDA by $7 million, primarily attributable to the euro, Brazilian real, and Chinese renminbi. Increased costs, primarily due to supply chain and material cost impacts associated with the worldwide semiconductor supply shortage, partially offset by customer recoveries, decreased Adjusted EBITDA by $13 million. Lower warranty expense and net engineering costs, excluding currency, increased Adjusted EBITDA by $5 million and $20 million, respectively. 25 The reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income attributable to Visteon for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 is as follows: (In millions) Net income (loss) attributable to Visteon Corporation Depreciation and amortization Restructuring and impairment expense Provision for income taxes Non-cash, stock-based compensation expense Interest expense, net Net (income) loss attributable to non-controlling interests Equity in net income of non-consolidated affiliates Other, net Adjusted EBITDA Year Ended December 31, 2020 2021 Change 41 $ 108 14 31 18 8 9 (6) 5 228 $ (56) $ 104 76 28 18 11 8 (6) 9 192 $ 97 4 (62) 3 — (3) 1 — (4) 36 $ $ Year ended December 31, 2020 Compared to Year ended December 31, 2019 The Company's consolidated results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 were as follows: (In millions) Net sales Cost of sales Gross margin Selling, general and administrative expenses Restructuring expense Interest expense, net Equity in net income of non-consolidated affiliates Other income, net Income (loss) before income taxes Provision for income taxes Net income (loss) from continuing operations Net income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax Net income (loss) Net (income) loss attributable to non-controlling interests Net income (loss) attributable to Visteon Corporation Adjusted EBITDA* Year Ended December 31, 2019 2020 Change $ $ $ 2,548 $ (2,303) 245 (193) (76) (11) 6 9 (20) (28) (48) — (48) (8) (56) $ 192 $ 2,945 $ (2,621) 324 (221) (4) (9) 6 10 106 (24) 82 (1) 81 (11) 70 $ 234 $ (397) 318 (79) 28 (72) (2) — (1) (126) (4) (130) 1 (129) 3 (126) (42) * Adjusted EBITDA is a Non-U.S. GAAP financial measure, as defined in Note 20, "Segment Information and Revenue Recognition" to the Company's consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this Form 10-K. 26 Net Sales and Cost of Sales (In millions) December 31, 2019 Volume, mix, and net new business Customer pricing, net Currency Engineering costs, net Cost performance, design changes and other December 31, 2020 Net Sales 2,945 (318) (58) (13) — (8) 2,548 $ $ Cost of Sales Gross Margin 324 $ (190) (58) (8) 93 84 245 (2,621) $ 128 — 5 93 92 (2,303) $ $ Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2020 totaled $2,548 million, which represents a decrease of $397 million compared with 2019. Unfavorable volumes, primarily due to the impacts of COVID-19, and mix, partially offset by net new business, decreased net sales by $318 million. Customer pricing decreased net sales by $58 million. Unfavorable currency decreased net sales by $13 million, primarily attributable to the euro, Chinese renminbi, Brazilian real and Indian rupee. Other cost performance, primarily related to design changes, reduced sales by $8 million. Cost of sales decreased $318 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, when compared with 2019. Lower volumes, primarily due to the impacts of COVID-19, partially offset by unfavorable product mix, decreased cost of sales by $128 million. Engineering costs, excluding currency, decreased cost of sales by $93 million. Foreign currency decreased cost of sales by $5 million primarily attributable to the euro, Chinese renminbi, Indian rupee, Brazilian real, and Bulgarian lev. Favorable cost performance including material design, usage, and economics decreased cost of sales by $92 million. A summary of net engineering costs is shown below: (In millions) Gross engineering costs Engineering recoveries Engineering costs, net Year Ended December 31, 2019 2020 $ $ (335) $ 134 (201) $ (440) 140 (300) Gross engineering includes program development costs and advanced engineering activities, excluding contractually reimbursable engineering costs. Net engineering costs of $201 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, including the impacts of currency, were $99 million lower than 2019, primarily related to short-term and long-term cost reduction initiatives including the benefits of previously announced restructuring actions implemented to optimize the structure while supporting future growth. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $193 million, or 7.6% of net sales, and $221 million, or 7.5% of net sales, during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The decrease of $28 million is primarily related to temporary austerity measures in 2020, other cost reduction initiatives, and the impacts of previously announced restructuring actions. Restructuring Expense Restructuring actions initiated during 2020 include the following: • • In January, the Company approved a plan primarily related to European engineering and administrative functions to improve the Company’s efficiency and rationalize its footprint. The Company incurred $26 million of net restructuring expense for cash severance, retention, and termination costs related to this plan. In March, the Company approved a global restructuring plan impacting engineering, administrative and manufacturing functions to improve the Company’s efficiency and rationalize its footprint. The Company incurred $16 million of net restructuring expense for cash severance, retention, and termination costs related to this plan. 27 • • In September, the Company approved a plan to respond to COVID-19 impacts while at the same time improving efficiency and rationalizing the Company’s footprint. The Company has incurred $32 million of net restructuring expense related to this plan. In December, the Company approved a plan related to engineering, administrative, and manufacturing functions in Asia to improve the Company's efficiency and rationalize its footprints. The Company has incurred $2 million in restructuring costs relation to this plan. During 2019, the Company recorded approximately $4 million of net restructuring expenses related to end of life of certain products and the optimization of certain operations. Interest Expense, Net Net interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2020, was $11 million, representing an increase of $2 million as compared to 2019. The increase is primarily due to the first quarter 2020 borrowing of $400 million under the Company's revolving credit facility. The Company fully repaid the amount borrowed during the third quarter of 2020 following stronger than expected industry recovery and improved Company performance. Equity in Net Income of Non-Consolidated Affiliates Equity in net income of non-consolidated affiliates was $6 million for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019. Other Income, Net Other income, net consists of the following: (In millions) Pension financing benefits, net Pension settlement charge Year Ended December 31, 2019 2020 $ $ 14 $ (5) 9 $ 10 — 10 During 2020, the Company transferred a portion of the benefit obligation related to its defined benefit U.S. pension plan to a third-party issuer. The transaction met the criteria for settlement accounting, and accordingly the Company recognized a $5 million pension settlement charge in the fourth quarter of 2020. Income Taxes The Company's provision for income taxes was $28 million for year ended December 31, 2020, a $4 million increase when compared with 2019. The increase in tax expense reflects the reassessment of the 2020 valuation allowances in connection with the realization of deferred tax assets in Germany and Brazil, as well as the non-recurrence of a 2019 discrete income tax valuation allowance release in Germany, resulting in an increase in income tax expense of $19 million. Other changes in the Company’s deferred tax asset valuation allowances did not materially impact net tax expense during the years ended December 31, 2020 or 2019. The increases described above were partially offset by approximately $15 million decrease in income tax expense primarily due to changes in the mix of earnings and differing tax rates between jurisdictions which reflects the overall decrease in earnings in jurisdictions where the Company is profitable and withholding taxes. Discontinued Operations During 2019, the Company recorded a $1 million charge for legal expenses related to former employees at a closed plant in Brazil. 28 Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Visteon Net loss attributable to Visteon was $56 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, compared to net income of $70 million for 2019. The decrease of $126 million is related to a decrease in gross margin of $79 million, higher restructuring expense of $72 million, and higher provision for income taxes of $4 million. These decreases were partially offset by lower selling, general and administrative expense of $28 million, and lower other income, net of $1 million. Adjusted EBITDA Adjusted EBITDA was $192 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, representing a decrease of $42 million when compared with Adjusted EBITDA of $234 million for 2019. Unfavorable volumes, primarily due to the impacts of COVID-19, and mix reduced Adjusted EBITDA by $190 million. Foreign currency decreased Adjusted EBITDA by $7 million, primarily attributable to the euro, Chinese renminbi, Brazilian real and Japanese yen, partially offset by the Mexican peso and Bulgarian lev. Lower net engineering costs, excluding currency, increased Adjusted EBITDA by $93 million. Favorable cost performance of $128 million, including material, design, and usage economics, lower manufacturing costs, lower selling and general and administrative expenses more than offset annual customer pricing of $58 million. The reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income attributable to Visteon for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 is as follows: Year Ended December 31, 2019 2020 (In millions) Net income (loss) attributable to Visteon Corporation Depreciation and amortization Restructuring expense Provision for income taxes Non-cash, stock-based compensation expense Interest expense, net Net (income) loss attributable to non-controlling interests Net income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax Equity in net income of non-consolidated affiliates Other, net Adjusted EBITDA Liquidity Overview $ $ (56) $ 104 76 28 18 11 8 — (6) 9 192 $ 70 $ 100 4 24 17 9 11 1 (6) 4 234 $ Change (126) 4 72 4 1 2 (3) (1) — 5 (42) The Company's primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations, existing cash balances, and borrowings under available credit facilities. As we continue to evaluate ongoing supply chain impacts associated with the semiconductor supply shortage and other supply chain impacts related to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company believes funds generated from these sources will continue to sufficiently sustain ongoing operations and support investment in differentiating technologies. The Company will continue to closely monitor its available liquidity and maintain access to additional liquidity to weather these challenging conditions. The Company's intra-year needs are normally impacted by seasonal effects in the industry, such as mid-year shutdowns, the ramp-up of new model production, and year-end shutdowns at key customers. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and related semiconductor supply shortage may exacerbate the intra-year requirements. A substantial portion of the Company's cash flows from operations are generated by operations located outside of the United States. Accordingly, the Company utilizes a combination of cash repatriation strategies, including dividends and distributions, royalties, and other intercompany arrangements to provide the funds necessary to meet obligations globally. The Company’s ability to access funds from its subsidiaries is subject to, among other things, customary regulatory and statutory requirements and contractual arrangements including joint venture agreements and local credit facilities. Moreover, repatriation efforts may be modified by the Company according to prevailing circumstances. On March 19, 2020, the Company borrowed the entire $400 million amount available under the revolving credit facility. On September 24, 2020, the Company fully repaid the amount borrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility following stronger than expected industry recovery and improved Company performance in the third quarter of 2020. 29 Access to additional capital through the debt or equity markets is influenced by the Company's credit ratings. As of December 31, 2021, the Company’s corporate credit rating is Ba3 and BB- by Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s, respectively. See Note 11, "Debt" in the Company's consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for a comprehensive discussion of the Company's debt facilities. Incremental funding requirements of the Company's consolidated foreign entities are primarily accommodated by intercompany cash pooling structures. Affiliate working capital lines, which are utilized by the Company's consolidated joint ventures, had availability of $168 million and the Company had $400 million of available credit under the revolving credit facility, as of December 31, 2021. Cash Balances As of December 31, 2021, the Company had total cash and equivalents of $455 million, including $3 million of restricted cash. Cash balances totaling $338 million were located in jurisdictions outside of the United States, of which approximately $135 million is considered permanently reinvested for funding ongoing operations outside of the U.S. If such permanently reinvested funds were repatriated to the U.S., no U.S. federal taxes would be imposed on the distribution of such foreign earnings due to U.S. tax reform enacted in December 2017, but the Company would be required to accrue additional tax expense, primarily related to foreign withholding taxes. Other Items Affecting Liquidity During the year ended December 31, 2021, cash contributions to the Company's U.S. defined benefit pension plans were $12 million and $8 million related to its non-U.S. employee retirement plans. Contributions related to certain non-U.S. plans of approximately $2 million have been deferred until 2024 due to COVID-19 relief measures. Additionally, the Company expects to make contributions to its non-US defined benefit pension plans of $4 million during 2022. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company paid $34 million related to restructuring activities. Additional discussion regarding the Company's restructuring activities is provided in Note 4, "Restructuring Activities" in the Company's consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this Form 10-K. The Company has committed to make investments totaling $15 million in two entities principally focused on the automotive sector pursuant to limited partnership agreements. As of December 31, 2021, the Company has contributed $9 million toward the aggregate investment commitments. As a limited partner in each entity, the Company will periodically make capital contributions toward this total commitment amount. Purchase Obligations As of December 31, 2021, the Company has contractual purchase obligations of approximately $71 million through 2024. Leases The Company has operating leases primarily for corporate offices, technical and engineering centers, customer centers, vehicles, and certain equipment with future lease obligations ranging from 2022 to 2033. Additional discussion regarding the Company's restructuring activities is provided in Note 9, "Leases" in the Company's consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this Form 10-K. Taxes The Company may be required to make significant cash outlays related to its unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties, that would be expected to result in a cash outlay of $8 million. Given the number of years, jurisdictions and positions subject to examination, the Company is unable to estimate the period of cash settlement, if any, with the respective taxing authorities. For further information related to the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits, see Note 14, “Income Taxes,” to the consolidated financial statements included in this Report. 30 Cash Flows Operating Activities The Company generated $58 million of cash from operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2021, as compared to $168 million during 2020 representing a $110 million decrease. Lower cash flow from operating activities is primarily due to lower working capital outflows partially offset by increased net income. Working capital out flows of $178 million are primarily related to higher inventory levels resulting from the worldwide semiconductor supply shortage and increased accounts receivable due to higher volume and higher than anticipated customer receipts during December 2020 of $40 million. These unfavorable impacts were partially offset by higher net income of $98 million and dividends received from non-consolidated affiliates of $18 million. The Company generated $168 million of cash from operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2020, as compared to $183 million during 2019, representing a $15 million decrease in cash provided from operations. Favorable changes in accounts receivable, partially attributable to $40 million of higher than anticipated customer receipts during the final month of 2020, were more than offset by unfavorable changes in inventory and accounts payable balances resulting in lower trade working capital of $17 million in 2020 as compared to 2019. These unfavorable impacts were partially offset by lower cash tax payments, higher net recoveries of reimbursable taxes and higher net proceeds received from customers to fund the Company's pre- production design, engineering and tooling costs necessary to support current and future programs. Investing Activities Net cash used by investing activities during the year ended December 31, 2021 totaled $63 million, as compared to $98 million in 2020, representing a decrease of $35 million. The decrease is primarily due to lower cash paid for capital expenditures of $34 million. Net cash used by investing activities during the year ended December 31, 2020 totaled $98 million, as compared to $128 million in 2019, representing a decrease of $30 million. This decrease is primarily due to lower capital expenditures of $38 million partially offset by lower loan repayments received from a non-consolidated affiliate of $9 million. Financing Activities Net cash used by financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2021 totaled $29 million, as compared to $58 million for 2020, representing a decrease of $29 million. The decrease is primarily due to 2020 share repurchases of $16 million and debt repayments of $37 million partially offset by higher dividends paid to non-controlling interests of $28 million. Net cash used by financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2020 totaled $58 million, as compared to $49 million for 2019, representing an increase of $9 million. Higher net cash used by financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2020 as compared to 2019 is primarily attributable to an increase in short-term debt repayment of $18 million partially offset by lower stock 2020 stock repurchases of $4 million and lower dividends paid to non-controlling interests of $2 million. Debt and Capital Structure See "Liquidity" above and also see Note 11, "Debt" and Note 15, "Stockholders' Equity and Non-controlling Interests" to the Company's consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for further information. Fair Value Measurements See Note 17, "Fair Value Measurements" to the Company's consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for additional information. Critical Accounting Estimates The Company’s significant accounting policies have been disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes under Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the Company's consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for further information. Certain policies relate to estimates that involve matters that are highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimate is made and different estimates or changes to an estimate could have a material impact on the reported financial position, changes in financial condition or results of operations. Such critical estimates are discussed below. For these, materially different amounts could be reported under varied conditions and assumptions. Other 31 items in the Company's consolidated financial statements require estimation, however, in our judgment, they are not as critical as those discussed below. Impairment of Long-lived Assets The Company monitors long-lived assets for impairment indicators on an ongoing basis. If an impairment indicator exists, the Company will test the long- lived asset group for recoverability by comparing the undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated from the long-lived assets compared to the related net book values. If the net book value of the asset group exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, the asset group is written down to its fair value and an impairment loss recognized. Fair value is determined using appraisals, management estimates or discounted cash flow calculations. During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company recorded an impairment of certain long-lived assets in Brazil due to rising costs and deteriorating business conditions. As a result, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $9 million to write-down property and equipment to its fair value as of December 31, 2021. The Company did not record impairment charges for the year ended December 31, 2020. See Note 4, "Restructuring and Impairment” in the Company's consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for additional information. Revenue Recognition Revenue is measured based on the transaction price and the quantity of parts specified in a contract with a customer. Discrete price adjustments may occur during the vehicle production period in order for the Company to remain competitive with market prices or based on changes in product specifications. Some of these price adjustments are non-routine in nature and require estimation. In the event the Company concludes that a portion of the revenue for a given part may vary from the purchase order, the Company records consideration at the most likely amount to which the Company expects to be entitled based on historical experience and input from customer negotiations. See Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Company's consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for additional information. Product Warranty and Recall The Company accrues for warranty obligations for products sold based on management estimates, with support from the Company’s sales, engineering, quality, and legal functions, of the amount that eventually will be required to settle such obligations. This accrual is based on several factors including contractual arrangements, past experience, current claims, production changes, industry developments, and various other considerations. The Company accrues for product recall claims related to potential financial participation in customer actions to provide remedies as a result of actual or threatened regulatory or court actions or the Company’s determination of the potential for such actions. The Company's accrual for recall claims is based on specific facts and circumstances underlying individual claims with support from the Company’s engineering, quality, and legal functions. Amounts accrued are based upon management’s best estimate of the amount that will ultimately be required to settle such claims. See Note 19, "Commitments and Contingencies" in the Company's consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for additional information. Restructuring The Company accrues costs in connection with its restructuring of the engineering, administration, and manufacturing organizations. These accruals include estimates primarily related to employee headcount, local statutory benefits, and other employee termination costs. Actual costs may vary from these estimates. These accruals are reviewed on a quarterly basis and changes to restructuring actions are appropriately recognized when identified. See Note 4, “Restructuring and Impairments” in the Company's consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for additional information. Pension Plans Certain Company employees participate in defined benefit pension plans or retirement/termination indemnity plans. The Company has approximately $177 million in unfunded net pension liabilities as of December 31, 2021, of which approximately $136 million and $41 million are attributable to U.S. and non-U.S. pension plans, respectively. The determination of the Company’s obligations and expense for its pension plans is dependent on assumptions set by the Company used by actuaries in calculating such amounts. Assumptions are described in Note 12, “Employee Benefit Plans” to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this Form 10-K, which are incorporated herein by reference, including the discount rate, expected long-term rate of return on plan assets, and rate of increase in compensation. 32 Actual results that differ from assumptions used are accumulated and amortized over future periods and, accordingly, generally affect recognized expense in future periods. Therefore, assumptions used to calculate benefit obligations as of the annual measurement date directly impact the expense to be recognized in future periods. The primary assumptions affecting the Company’s accounting for employee benefits, as of December 31, 2021, are as follows: Expected long-term rate of return on plan assets The expected long-term rate of return is used to calculate net periodic pension cost. The required use of the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets may result in recognized returns that are greater or less than the actual returns on those plan assets in any given year. Over time the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets is designed to approximate actual returns. The expected long-term rate of return for pension assets has been estimated based on various inputs, including historical returns for the different asset classes held by the Company’s trusts and its asset allocation, as well as inputs from internal and external sources regarding expected capital market returns, inflation, and other variables. Expected Rate of Return Long-Term Rates of Return Weighted Average Discount Rates U.S. Plans Non-U.S. Plans 2021 6.15% 6.23% 2.93% 2020 6.60% 6.15% 2.60% 2021 2.00% to 7.00% 2.00% to 7.00% 2.31% 2020 2.00% to 7.25% 2.00% to 7.0% 1.78% The Company has set the long-term rates of return assumptions for its 2022 pension expense which range from 2.0% to 7.0% outside the U.S. and 6.23% in the U.S. Discount rate The Company uses the spot rate method to estimate the service and interest components of net periodic benefit cost for pension benefits for its U.S. and certain non-U.S. plans. The Company has elected to utilize an approach that discounts individual expected cash flows underlying interest and service costs using the applicable spot rates derived from the yield curve used to determine the benefit obligation to the relevant projected cash flows. The discount rate assumption is based on market rates for a hypothetical portfolio of high-quality corporate bonds rated Aa or better with maturities closely matched to the timing of projected benefit payments for each plan at its annual measurement date. Actual Rates of Return Discount Rates 2021 9.40% 0.8% to 8.75% 2020 15.00% 0.8% to 8.75% 2019 20% 0.8% to 8.75% While the Company believes that these assumptions are appropriate, significant differences in actual experience or significant changes in these assumptions may materially affect the Company’s pension benefit obligations and its future expense. The following table illustrates the sensitivity to a change in certain assumptions for Company sponsored U.S. and non-U.S. pension plans on its 2021 funded status and 2022 pretax pension expense. Impact on U.S. 2022 Pretax Pension Expense Impact on U.S. Plan 2021 Funded Status Impact on Non-U.S. 2022 Pretax Pension Expense Impact on Non-U.S. Plan 2021 Funded Status Less than -$1 million 25 basis point decrease in discount rate (a)(b) 25 basis point increase in discount rate (a)(b) 25 basis point decrease in expected return on assets (a) 25 basis point increase in expected return on assets (a) (a) Assumes all other assumptions are held constant.

Significant judgment is required in determining the Company’s worldwide provision for income taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and valuation allowances recorded against the Company’s net deferred tax assets. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. In the event our operating performance improves or deteriorates in a filing jurisdiction or entity, future assessments could conclude a smaller or larger valuation allowance will be needed. Due to the complexity of some of these uncertainties, the ultimate resolution may be materially different from the current estimate. In the ordinary course of the Company’s business, there are many transactions and calculations where the final tax determination is uncertain. The Company is regularly audited by tax authorities. Where appropriate, the Company accrues for contingencies related to income tax risks and non-income tax risks. See Note 14, "Income Taxes" in the Company's consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for additional information. Fair Value Measurements The Company uses fair value measurements in the preparation of its financial statements, utilizing various inputs including those that can be readily observable, indirectly observable or are unobservable. The Company utilizes market-based data and valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs. Additionally, the Company applies assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability, including assumptions about risk. See Note 17, "Fair Value Measurements" and Note 7, "Property and Equipment" in the Company's consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for additional information. Recent Accounting Pronouncements See Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the Company's consolidated financial statements under Item 8 of this Form 10-K for a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk The primary market risks to which the Company is exposed include changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and certain commodity prices. The Company manages these risks through derivative instruments and various operating actions including fixed price contracts with suppliers and cost sourcing arrangements with customers. The Company's use of derivative instruments is limited to mitigation of market risks, including hedging activities. However, derivative instruments are not used for speculative or trading purposes, as per clearly defined risk management policies. Additionally, the Company's use of derivative instruments creates exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the counter-party to the derivative financial instruments. The Company limits this exposure by entering into agreements directly with a variety of major financial institutions with high credit standards and that are expected to fully satisfy their obligations under the contracts. Additionally, the Company's ability to utilize derivatives to manage market risk is dependent on credit conditions and market conditions given the current economic environment. Foreign Currency Risk The Company’s net cash inflows and outflows exposed to the risk of changes in foreign currency exchange rates arise from the sale of products in countries other than the manufacturing source, foreign currency denominated supplier payments, debt and other payables, subsidiary dividends, investments in subsidiaries, and anticipated foreign currency denominated transaction proceeds. Where possible, the Company utilizes derivative financial instruments to manage foreign currency exchange rate risks. Forward and option contracts may be utilized to reduce the impact to the Company's cash flow from adverse movements in exchange rates. Foreign currency exposures are reviewed periodically and any natural offsets are considered prior to entering into a derivative financial instrument. The Company’s primary hedged foreign currency exposures include the euro and Brazilian real. Where possible, the Company utilizes a strategy of partial coverage for transactions in these currencies. The Company's policy requires that hedge transactions relate to a specific portion of the exposure not to exceed the aggregate amount of the underlying transaction. In addition to the transactional exposure described above, the Company's operating results are impacted by the translation of its foreign operating income into U.S. dollars. The Company does not enter into foreign exchange contracts to mitigate this exposure. The hypothetical pretax gain or loss in fair value from a 10% favorable or adverse change in quoted currency exchange rates would be approximately $29 million and $31 million for foreign currency derivative financial instruments as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. These estimated changes assume a parallel shift in all currency exchange rates and include the gain or loss on financial instruments used to hedge investments in subsidiaries. Because exchange rates typically do not all move in the same direction, the estimate may overstate the impact of changing exchange rates on the net fair value of the Company's financial derivatives. It is also important to note that gains and losses indicated in the sensitivity analysis would generally be offset by gains and losses on the underlying exposures being hedged. 36 Interest Rate Risk See Note 18, "Financial Instruments" to the Company's consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for additional information. Commodity Risk The Company's exposures to market risk from changes in the price of production material are managed primarily through negotiations with suppliers and customers, although there can be no assurance that the Company will recover all such costs. The Company continues to evaluate derivatives available in the marketplace and may decide to utilize derivatives in the future to manage select commodity risks if an acceptable hedging instrument is identified for the Company's exposure level at that time, as well as the effectiveness of the financial hedge among other factors. 37 Item 8.

Under the supervision and with the participation of the principal executive and financial officers of the Company, an evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting was conducted based on the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (“the COSO 2013 Framework”) of the Treadway Commission. Based on the evaluation performed under the COSO 2013 Framework as of December 31, 2021, management has concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is effective. Additionally, Ernst & Young LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has audited the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, as stated in their report which is included herein. 39 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of Visteon Corporation Opinion on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Visteon Corporation and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), cash flows and changes in equity for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2021, and the related notes and financial statement schedule included in Item 15(a)(2) (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2021, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework), and our report dated February 17, 2022 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon. Basis for Opinion These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Critical Audit Matters The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate. 40 Description of the Matter Revenue Recognition As discussed in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, the Company’s sales contracts with its customers may provide for discrete price adjustments during the vehicle production period in order for the Company to remain competitive with market prices or based on changes in production specifications. Some of these price adjustments are non-routine in nature and require estimation. In the event the Company concludes that a portion of the revenue for a given part may vary from the purchase order, the Company records consideration at the most likely amount to which the Company expects to be entitled based on historical experience and input from customer negotiations. Auditing the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for certain of its products which are subject to non- routine price adjustments is highly judgmental due to changes in production specifications and commercial negotiations with customers throughout the life of the production periods. How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit We identified and tested controls relating to the identification and evaluation of non-routine pricing adjustments including management’s evaluation of the commercial facts and circumstances to support the most likely consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled. Our audit procedures included, among others, inspecting communications between the Company and its customers related to the pricing arrangements, making inquiries of the sales representatives who are responsible for negotiations with customers, testing any subsequent adjustments for appropriate amount and timing, obtaining written representations from management regarding customer agreements, and performing retrospective reviews of management’s estimates to identify any contrary evidence. Description of the Matter Impairment of Long-lived Assets - Property and Equipment As of December 31, 2021, the Company's property and equipment, net balance was $388 million. As discussed in Note 4, Restructuring and Impairments, during the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company recorded an impairment of certain long-lived assets in Brazil due to rising costs and deteriorating business conditions. The Company evaluated its property and equipment in Brazil for recoverability and concluded that certain assets were impaired. The Company recognized a $9 million impairment charge, which is the amount by which the carrying value exceeded the estimated fair value of these assets. Auditing the Company’s impairment measurement involved a high degree of judgment as estimates underlying the determination of fair value of the long-lived assets were based on assumptions affected by current market and economic conditions. To determine the fair value of the long-lived asset group, the Company utlized a cost and market approach, measuring fair value on the standalone basis value premise. We identified and tested controls relating to the determination of the asset group's fair value and measurement of the related impairment. We also tested controls over the Company's review of the significant assumptions and methodologies used in the calculation of fair value of the related assets. How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit Our audit procedures included, among others, evaluating the valuation methodology, significant assumptions and data used in the valuation, and testing the mathematical accuracy of the impairment charge. We also involved our valuation specialists to assist in evaluating the approach and key assumptions used to estimate the fair value. /s/ Ernst & Young LLP We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2012. Detroit, Michigan February 17, 2022 41 To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of Visteon Corporation Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm Opinion on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting We have audited Visteon Corporation and subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) (the COSO criteria). In our opinion, Visteon Corporation and subsidiaries (the Company) maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, based on the COSO criteria. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the 2021 consolidated financial statements of the Company and our report dated February 17, 2022 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon. Basis for Opinion The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. /s/ Ernst & Young LLP Detroit, Michigan February 17, 2022 42 VISTEON CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS (In millions, except per share amounts) Net sales Cost of sales Gross margin Selling, general and administrative expenses Restructuring and impairment expense Interest expense Interest income Equity in net income of non-consolidated affiliates Other income, net Income (loss) before income taxes Provision for income taxes Net income (loss) from continuing operations Net income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax Net income (loss) Net (income) loss attributable to non-controlling interests Net income (loss) attributable to Visteon Corporation Basic earnings (loss) per share: Continuing operations Discontinued operations Basic earnings (loss) per share attributable to Visteon Corporation Diluted earnings (loss) per share: Continuing operations Discontinued operations Diluted earnings (loss) per share attributable to Visteon Corporation 2021 Year Ended December 31, 2020 2019 2,773 (2,519) $ 2,548 (2,303) $ 2,945 (2,621) 254 (175) (14) (10) 2 6 18 81 (31) 50 — 50 (9) 41 1.46 — 1.46 1.44 — 1.44 $ $ $ $ $ 245 (193) (76) (16) 5 6 9 (20) (28) (48) — (48) (8) (56) (2.01) — (2.01) (2.01) — (2.01) $ $ $ $ $ 324 (221) (4) (13) 4 6 10 106 (24) 82 (1) 81 (11) 70 2.53 (0.04) 2.49 2.52 (0.04) 2.48 $ $ $ $ $ $ See accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements. 43 VISTEON CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS) (In millions) Net income (loss) Foreign currency translation adjustments Net investment hedge Benefit plans, net of tax (a) Unrealized hedging gains (losses), net of tax (b) Other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax Comprehensive income (loss) Comprehensive income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests Comprehensive income (loss) attributable to Visteon Corporation $ $ 2021 Year Ended December 31, 2020 50 $ (48) $ 2019 (31) 19 84 6 78 128 12 116 $ 45 (19) (51) (5) (30) (78) 15 (93) $ 81 (13) 9 (43) (6) (53) 28 9 19 (a) Benefit plans, net of tax reflects tax expense of $4 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, tax expense of less than $1 million for the year ended December 31,2020, and tax benefit of $5 million for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation: Visteon Corporation (the "Company" or "Visteon") financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP") on a going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of operations, realization of assets, and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. Investments in affiliates over which the Company does not exercise control, but does have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies, are accounted for using the equity method. All other investments are measured at cost, less impairment, with changes in fair value recognized in net income. The Company determines whether the joint venture in which it has invested is a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) at the start of each new venture and when a reconsideration event has occurred. An enterprise must consolidate a VIE if it is determined to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The primary beneficiary has both the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported herein. Considerable judgment is involved in making these determinations and the use of different estimates or assumptions could result in significantly different results. Management believes its assumptions and estimates are reasonable and appropriate. However, actual results could differ from those reported herein. Events and changes in circumstances arising after December 31, 2021, including those resulting from the impacts of COVID-19 and related subsequent semiconductor supply shortage, as further described in Note 19, "Commitments and Contingencies", will be reflected in management's estimates for future periods. Foreign Currency: Assets and liabilities for most of the Company’s non-U.S. businesses are translated into U.S. dollars at end-of-period exchange rates. Income and expense accounts of the Company’s non-U.S. businesses are translated into U.S. dollars at average-period exchange rates. The related translation adjustments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) ("AOCI") in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The effects of remeasuring monetary assets and liabilities of the Company’s businesses denominated in currencies other than their functional currency are recorded as transaction gains and losses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Additionally, gains and losses resulting from transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are recorded as transaction gains and losses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Net transaction gains and losses increased net income by $2 million and decreased net income by $2 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Net transaction gains and losses, inclusive of amounts associated with discontinued operations, decreased net income by $3 million for the years ended December 31, 2019. Revenue Recognition: The Company generates revenue from the production of automotive vehicle cockpit electronics parts sold to Original Equipment Manufacturers ("OEMs"), or Tier 1 suppliers at the direction of the OEM, under long-term supply agreements supporting new vehicle production. Such agreements may also require related production for service parts subsequent to initial vehicle production periods. 48 The Company’s contracts with customers involve various governing documents (sourcing agreements, master purchase agreements, terms and conditions agreements, etc.) which do not reach the level of a performance obligation of the Company until the Company receives either a purchase order and/or a customer release for a specific number of parts at a specified price, at which point the collective group of documents represent an enforceable contract. While the long-term supply agreements generally range from three to five years, customers make no commitments to volumes, and pricing or specifications can change prior to or during production. The Company recognizes revenue when control of the parts produced are transferred to the customer according to the terms of the contract, which is usually when the parts are shipped or delivered to the customer’s premises. Customers are generally invoiced upon shipment or delivery and payment generally occurs within 45 to 90 days and do not include significant financing components. Customers in China are often invoiced one month after shipment or delivery. Customer returns, when they occur, relate to quality rework issues and are not connected to any repurchase obligation of the Company. As of December 31, 2021, all unfulfilled performance obligations are expected to be fulfilled within the next twelve months. Revenue is measured based on the transaction price and the quantity of parts specified in a contract with a customer. Discrete price adjustments may occur during the vehicle production period in order for the Company to remain competitive with market prices or based on changes in product specifications. Some of these price adjustments are non-routine in nature and require estimation. In the event the Company concludes that a portion of the revenue for a given part may vary from the purchase order, the Company records consideration at the most likely amount to which the Company expects to be entitled based on historical experience and input from customer negotiations. The Company records such estimates within Net sales and Accounts receivable, net, within the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Consolidated Balance Sheets, respectively. The Company adjusts its pricing reserves at the earlier of when the most likely amount of consideration changes or when the consideration becomes fixed. In 2021, revenue recognized related to performance obligations satisfied in previous periods represented less than 1% of consolidated net sales. Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction that are collected by the Company from a customer are excluded from revenue. Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight after control of the parts has transferred to a customer are accounted for as a fulfillment cost and are included in Cost of Sales. Restructuring Expense: Restructuring expense includes costs directly associated with exit or disposal activities. Such costs include employee severance and termination benefits, special termination benefits, contract termination fees and penalties, and other exit or disposal costs. In general, the Company records involuntary employee-related exit and disposal costs when there is a substantive plan for employee severance and related costs are probable and estimable. For one-time termination benefits (i.e., no substantive plan) and employee retention costs, expense is recorded when the employees are entitled to receive such benefits and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Contract termination fees and penalties and other exit and disposal costs are generally recorded when incurred. Debt Issuance Costs: The costs related to issuance or modification of long-term debt are deferred and amortized into interest expense over the life of each respective debt issue. Deferred amounts associated with debt extinguished prior to maturity are expensed upon extinguishment. Other Costs within Cost of Sales: Repair and maintenance costs, pre-production costs, and research and development expenses are expensed as incurred. Pre-production costs expensed represent engineering and development costs that are not contractually guaranteed for reimbursement by the customer. Research and development expenses technology, occupancy, telecommunications, depreciation, forward model program development, and advanced engineering activities. Research and development expenses were $191 million, $201 million, and $300 million in 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively, which includes recoveries from customers of $134 million, $134 million and $140 million. include salary and related employee benefits, contractor fees, information Net Earnings (Loss) Per Share Attributable to Visteon: Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to Visteon by the average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to Visteon by the average number of common and potential dilutive common shares outstanding after deducting undistributed income allocated to participating securities. Performance based share units are considered contingently issuable shares and are included in the computation of diluted earnings per share if their conditions have been satisfied as if the reporting date was the end of the contingency period. 49 Cash and Equivalents: The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less, including short- term time deposits, commercial paper, repurchase agreements, and money market funds to be cash and cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2021 the Company's cash balances are invested in a diversified portfolio of cash and highly liquid cash equivalents including money market funds, commercial paper rated A2/P2 and above with maturity under three months, time deposits and other short-term cash investments, which mature under three months with highly rated banking institutions. The cost of such funds approximates fair value based on the nature of the investment. Restricted Cash: Restricted cash represents amounts designated for uses other than current operations and includes $2 million related to a Letter of Credit Facility, and $1 million related to cash collateral for other corporate purposes as of December 31, 2021. As of December 31, 2020, restricted cash includes $3 million related to a Letter of Credit Facility and $1 million related to cash collateral for other corporate purposes. Accounts Receivable: Accounts receivable are stated at the invoiced amount, less an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated amounts not expected to be collected, and do not bear interest. The Company receives bank notes from certain customers in China to settle trade accounts receivable. The collection on such bank notes are included in operating cash flows based on the substance of the underlying transactions, which are operating in nature. The Company may hold such bank notes until maturity, exchange them with suppliers to settle liabilities, or sell them to third-party financial institutions in exchange for cash. The Company has entered into arrangements with financial institutions to sell certain bank notes, generally maturing within nine months. Bank notes are sold with recourse but qualify as a sale as all rights to the notes have passed to the financial institution. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts: The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts for accounts receivable based on the current expected credit loss impairment model (“CECL”). The Company elected to apply a historical loss rate based on historic write-offs by region to aging categories. The historical loss rate will be adjusted for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future losses, as necessary. The Company may also record a specific reserve for individual accounts when the Company becomes aware of specific customer circumstances, such as in the case of a bankruptcy filing or deterioration in the customer's operating results or financial position. The allowance for doubtful accounts related to accounts receivable and related activity are summarized below: (In millions) Balance at beginning of year Provision Recoveries Write-offs charged against the allowance Balance at end of year 2021 December 31, 2020 2019 $ $ 4 $ — — — 4 $ 10 $ 1 (3) (4) 4 $ 6 6 (1) (1) 10 Provision for estimated uncollectible accounts receivable are included in Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations. Inventories: Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on a first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) basis, or net realizable value. Cost includes the cost of materials, direct labor, in-bound freight and the applicable share of manufacturing overhead. The cost of inventories is reduced for excess and obsolete inventories based on management’s review of on-hand inventories compared to historical and estimated future sales and usage. Product Tooling: Product tooling includes molds, dies, and other tools used in production of a specific part or parts of the same basic design owned either by the Company or its customers. Company owned tooling is capitalized and depreciated over the shorter of the expected useful life of the assets or the term of the supply arrangement, generally not exceeding six years. The Company had receivables of $21 million and $26 million as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, related to product tools, which will not be owned by the Company and for which there is a contractual agreement for reimbursement from the customer. 50 Contractually Reimbursable Engineering Costs: Engineering, testing, and other costs incurred in the design and development of production parts are expensed as incurred, unless the cost reimbursement is contractually guaranteed in a customer contract, in which case costs are capitalized as incurred and subsequently reduced upon lump sum or piece price recoveries. Property and Equipment: Property and equipment is stated at cost or fair value for impaired assets. Property and equipment is depreciated principally using the straight-line method of depreciation over the related asset's estimated useful life. Asset impairment charges are recorded for assets held-in-use when events and circumstances indicate that such assets may not be recoverable and the undiscounted net cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than their carrying amounts. If estimated future undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to recover the carrying value of the assets, an impairment charge is recorded for the amount by which the carrying value of the assets exceeds fair value. Fair value is determined using appraisals, management estimates or discounted cash flow calculations. For further detail on the Company’s impairments see Note 4, "Restructuring and Impairments." Leases: The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at contract inception. Right-of-use ("ROU") assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent its obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company estimates the incremental borrowing rate to discount the lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. The Company's lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise such options. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has lease agreements containing lease and non-lease components which are accounted for as a single lease component. Goodwill: The Company performs either a qualitative or quantitative assessment of goodwill for impairment on an annual basis. Goodwill impairment testing is performed at the reporting unit level. The qualitative assessment considers several factors at the reporting unit level including the excess of fair value over carrying value as of the last quantitative impairment test, the length of time since the last fair value measurement, the current carrying value, market and industry metrics, actual performance compared to forecast performance, and the Company's current outlook on the business. If the qualitative assessment indicates it is more likely than not that goodwill is impaired, the reporting unit is quantitatively tested for impairment. To quantitatively test goodwill for impairment, the fair value of each reporting unit is determined and compared to the carrying value. An impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the reporting unit's carrying value exceeds its fair value. Management has tested for impairment using a quantitative assessment and concluded that no impairment exists as of December 31, 2021. Intangible Assets: Definite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives, and tested for impairment in accordance with the methodology discussed above under "Property and Equipment." Product Warranty and Recall: Amounts accrued for product warranty and recall claims are based on management’s best estimates of the amounts that will ultimately be required to settle such items. The Company’s estimates for product warranty and recall obligations are developed with support from its sales, engineering, quality, and legal functions and include due consideration of contractual arrangements, past experience, current claims and related information, production changes, industry and regulatory developments and various other considerations. For further detail on the Company’s warranty obligations see Note 19, "Commitments and Contingencies." Income Taxes: Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. This assessment requires judgment, and must be done on a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis. In determining the need for a valuation allowance, all available positive and negative evidence, including historical and projected financial performance, is considered along with any other pertinent information. Value Added Taxes: The Company reports value added taxes collected from customers and remitted to government authorities, on a net basis within Cost of sales. Financial Instruments: The Company uses derivative financial instruments, including forward contracts, swaps, and options to manage exposures to changes in currency exchange rates and interest rates. The Company's policy specifically prohibits the use of derivatives for speculative or trading purposes. 51 Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements Reference Rate Reform - In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) - Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting." Subsequently, in 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, "Reference Rate Reform", to further clarify and expand certain aspects of ASC 848. ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01 provide optional expedients and exceptions related to certain contract modifications and hedging relationships that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or another rate that is expected to be discontinued. The guidance was effective upon issuance and is generally applied to applicable contract modifications and hedge relationships prospectively through December 31, 2022. The adoption of the guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Government Assistance - In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-10, "Government Assistance (Topic 832) - Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance." to increase the transparency of government assistance including the disclosure of the types of assistance, an entity’s accounting for the assistance, and the effect of the assistance on an entity’s financial statements. The amendments in this update are effective for all entities within their scope for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021. The Company is current evaluating the impact of the adoption of Topic 848. NOTE 2. Discontinued Operations During 2014 and 2015, the Company completed its divestiture of the majority of its global Interiors business (the "Interiors Divestiture") and completed the sale of its Argentina and Brazil interiors operations on December 1, 2016. Separately, the Company completed the sale of the majority of its global Climate business (the "Climate Transaction") during 2015. These transactions met the conditions required to qualify for discontinued operations reporting and accordingly the results of operations and the settlement of retained contingencies have been classified in income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax, in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. There were no discontinued operations during 2021 or 2020. During 2019 the Company recognized approximately $2 million of cost of sales for corrections of judicial deposits related to former employees at a closed plant in Brazil and recorded a $1 million release of restructuring expense due to a change in estimate. NOTE 3. Non-Consolidated Affiliates Non-Consolidated Affiliate Transactions Visteon and Yangfeng Automotive Trim Systems Co. Ltd. ("YF") each own 50% of a joint venture under the name of Yanfeng Visteon Investment Co., Ltd. ("YFVIC"). In October 2014, YFVIC completed the purchase of YF’s 49% direct ownership in Yanfeng Visteon Automotive Electronics Co., Ltd ("YFVE") a consolidated joint venture of the Company ("The YFVIC Transaction"). The purchase by YFVIC was financed through a shareholder loan from YF and external borrowings, guaranteed by Visteon, which were paid in 2019. The Company has committed to make investments totaling $15 million in two entities principally focused on the automotive sector pursuant to limited partnership agreements. As a limited partner in each entity, the Company will periodically make capital contributions toward this total commitment amount. Through December 31, 2021, the Company had contributed approximately $9 million to these entities. These investments are classified as equity method investments. Investments in Affiliates The Company recorded equity in the net income of non-consolidated affiliates of $6 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The Company monitors its investments in affiliates for indicators of other-than-temporary declines in value on an ongoing basis. If the Company determines that an other-than-temporary decline in value has occurred, an impairment loss will be recorded, which is measured as the difference between the recorded book value and the fair value of the investment. As of December 31, 2021, the Company determined that no such indicators were present. Variable Interest Entities The Company determined that YFVIC is a VIE. The Company holds a variable interest in YFVIC primarily related to its ownership interests and subordinated financial support. The Company and YF each own 50% of YFVIC and neither entity has 52 the power to control the operations of YFVIC; therefore, the Company is not the primary beneficiary of YFVIC and does not consolidate the joint venture. A summary of the Company's investments in non-consolidated equity method affiliates is provided below: (In millions) YFVIC (50%) Limited partnerships Others Total investments in non-consolidated affiliates A summary of transactions with affiliates is shown below: (In millions) Billings to affiliates (a) Purchases from affiliates (b) (a) Primarily relates to parts production and engineering reimbursement (b) Primarily relates to engineering services as well as selling, general and administrative expenses A summary of the Company's investments in YFVIC is provided below: (In millions) Payables due to YFVIC Exposure to loss in YFVIC Investment in YFVIC Receivables due from YFVIC Subordinated loan receivable Maximum exposure to loss in YFVIC NOTE 4. Restructuring and Impairments December 31, 2021 2020 36 $ 10 8 54 $ Year Ended December 31, 2021 2020 76 $ 61 $ December 31, 2021 2020 20 $ 36 $ 48 — 84 $ 50 4 6 60 95 58 9 50 53 6 109 $ $ $ $ $ $ $ Given the economically-sensitive and highly competitive nature of the automotive electronics industry, the Company continues to closely monitor current market factors and industry trends, including potential impacts related to COVID-19, taking action as necessary which may include restructuring actions. However, there can be no assurance that any such actions will be sufficient to fully offset the impact of adverse factors on the Company or its results of operations, financial position and cash flows. Current restructuring actions include the following: • During 2021 the Company approved various restructuring programs, primarily impacting Europe and Brazil in order to improve efficiencies and rationalize the Company's footprint. Accordingly, the Company recorded $4 million of restructuring expense related to these actions. As of December 31, 2021, $3 million remains accrued related to these programs. • During 2020 the Company approved various restructuring programs impacting engineering, administrative and manufacturing functions to improve efficiency and rationalize the Company’s footprint. The Company recorded $1 million and $76 million of net restructuring expenses for cash severance, retention, and termination costs for the years ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively related to these programs. As of December 31, 2021, $12 million remains accrued related to these programs. • During 2019, the Company approved a restructuring program impacting two European manufacturing facilities due to the end of certain product lines. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company recorded net restructuring expense of $2 million related to this program 53 • During 2018, the Company approved a restructuring program impacting legacy employees at a South America facility due to the wind-down of certain products. As of December 31, 2021, $1 million remains accrued related to this program. As of December 31, 2021, the Company retained restructuring reserves as part of the Company's divestiture of the majority of its Interiors Divestiture of $2 million associated with completed programs for the fundamental reorganization of operations at facilities in Brazil and France. Restructuring Reserves Restructuring reserve balances of $16 million and $2 million as of December 31, 2021 are classified as Other Current Liabilities and Other non-current liabilities, respectively. Restructuring reserve balances of $39 million and $10 million as of December 31, 2020 are classified as Other current liabilities and Other non-current liabilities, respectively. The Company anticipates that the activities associated with the current restructuring reserve balance will be substantially complete by end of 2022. The Company’s consolidated restructuring reserves and related activity are summarized below, including amounts associated with discontinued operations.

During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company concluded impairment triggers had occurred for a long-lived asset group in Brazil due to rising costs and deteriorating business conditions. The Company determined the cash flows related to certain long-lived assets were not sufficient to recover the carrying value. As such, the Company estimated the fair values of this asset group at December 31, 2021 and compared the fair value to its net carrying value. As the net carrying value of the long-lived asset group exceeded the fair value, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $9 million to write-down property and equipment to its fair value as of December 31, 2021. 54 NOTE 5.

As of December 31, 2021, the Company has $4 million short-term borrowing and there is $168 million available capacity under affiliate credit facilities. Long-Term Debt As of December 31, 2021, the Company has an amended credit agreement ("Credit Agreement") which includes a $350 million Term Facility maturing March 24, 2024 and a $400 million Revolving Credit Facility which matures the earlier of (i) December 24, 2024, (ii) 90 days prior to the scheduled maturity of the Term Facility, or (iii) the date of the termination of the Company's credit agreement. 58 On March 19, 2020, the Company borrowed the entire amount of revolving loans available under the Revolving Credit Facility to increase its cash position and maximize its flexibility in response to unprecedented uncertainty related to the impact of COVID-19. On September 24, 2020, the Company fully repaid the amount borrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility following stronger than expected industry recovery and improved Company performance in the third quarter of 2020. The Company has no outstanding borrowings on the Revolving Credit Facility as of December 31, 2021 and 2020. Interest on the Term Facility loan accrue at a rate equal to a LIBOR-based rate plus an applicable margin of 1.75% per annum. Loans under the Company's Revolving Credit Facility accrue interest at a rate equal to a LIBOR-based rate plus an applicable margin of between 1.00% - 2.00%, as determined by the Company's total gross leverage ratio. The Credit Agreement requires compliance with customary affirmative and negative covenants and contains customary events of default. The Revolving Credit Facility also requires that the Company maintain a total net leverage ratio no greater than 3.50:1.00. During any period when the Company’s corporate and family ratings meet investment grade ratings, certain of the negative covenants are suspended. As of December 31, 2021, the Company was in compliance with all its debt covenants. The Revolving Credit Facility also provides $75 million availability for the issuance of letters of credit and a maximum of $20 million for swing line borrowings. Any amount of the facility utilized for letters of credit or swing line loans outstanding will reduce the amount available under the existing Revolving Credit Facility. The Company may request increases in the limits under the Credit Agreement and may request the addition of one or more term loan facilities. Outstanding borrowings may be prepaid without penalty (other than borrowings made for the purpose of reducing the effective interest rate margin or weighted average yield of the loans). There are mandatory prepayments of principal in connection with: (i) excess cash flow sweeps above certain leverage thresholds, (ii) certain asset sales or other dispositions, (iii) certain refinancing of indebtedness and (iv) over-advances under the Revolving Credit Facility. There are no excess cash flow sweeps required at the Company’s current leverage level. All obligations under the Credit Agreement and obligations with respect to certain cash management services and swap transaction agreements between the Company and its lenders are unconditionally guaranteed by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, any amounts outstanding are secured by a first-priority perfected lien on substantially all property of the Company and the subsidiaries party to the security agreement, subject to certain limitations. Other The Company has a $5 million letter of credit facility, whereby the Company is required to maintain a cash collateral account equal to 103% (110% for non-U.S. dollar denominated letters) of the aggregate stated amount of issued letters of credit and must reimburse any amounts drawn under issued letters of credit. The Company had $2 million of outstanding letters of credit issued under this facility secured by restricted cash, as of December 31, 2021. Additionally, the Company had $10 million of locally issued letters of credit with less than $1 million of collateral as of December 31, 2021 to support various tax appeals, customs arrangements, and other obligations at its local affiliates. 59 NOTE 12. Employee Benefit Plans Defined Benefit Plans The Company sponsors pay related benefit plans for employees in the U.S., UK, Germany, Brazil, France, Mexico, Japan, and Canada. Employees in the U.S. and UK are no longer accruing benefits under the Company's defined benefit plans as these plans were frozen. The Company’s defined benefit plans are partially funded with the exception of certain supplemental benefit plans for executives and certain non-U.S. plans, primarily in Germany, which are unfunded. The Company's expense for all defined benefit pension plans, is as follows: (In millions, except percentages) Costs Recognized in Income: Pension service cost: Service cost Pension financing benefit (cost): Interest cost Expected return on plan assets Amortization of losses and other Settlements and curtailments Restructuring related pension cost: Special termination benefits (a) Net pension income (expense) Weighted Average Assumptions: Discount rate Compensation increase Long-term return on assets (a) Primarily related to restructuring actions U.S. Plans Year Ended December 31, 2020 2021 2019 2021 Non-U.S. Plans Year Ended December 31, 2020 2019 $ — $ — $ — $ (1) $ (2) $ (17) 37 (3) — — 17 2.60 % N/A 6.15 % $ (24) 40 (1) (5) (3) 7 3.34 % N/A 6.60 % $ (30) 40 — — — 10 4.33 % N/A 6.78 % $ (5) 8 (2) — (1) (1) 1.78 % 2.14 % 3.30 % $ (7) 8 (2) — (4) (7) 2.39 % 3.16 % 3.98 % $ $ (2) (8) 10 (1) — (1) (2) 3.34 % 3.51 % 4.73 % The Company's total accumulated benefit obligations for all defined benefit plans was $1,121 million and $1,199 million as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The benefit plan obligations for employee retirement plans with accumulated benefit obligations in excess of plan assets were as follows: (In millions) Accumulated benefit obligation Projected benefit obligation Fair value of plan assets Year Ended December 31, 2021 2020 $ $ $ 892 895 711 $ $ $ 1,177 1,190 886 Assumptions used by the Company in determining its defined benefit pension obligations as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 are summarized in the following table: Weighted Average Assumptions Discount rate Rate of increase in compensation U.S. Plans Year Ended December 31, 2020 2021 Non-U.S. Plans Year Ended December 31, 2021 2020 2.93 % N/A 60 2.60 % N/A 2.31 % 2.30 % 1.78 % 2.14 % The Company’s obligation for all defined benefit pension plans, is as follows: (In millions) Change in Benefit Obligation: Benefit obligation — beginning Service cost Interest cost Actuarial loss (gain) Settlements Special termination benefits Foreign exchange translation Benefits paid and other Benefit obligation — ending Change in Plan Assets: Plan assets — beginning Actual return on plan assets Sponsor contributions Settlements Foreign exchange translation Benefits paid and other Plan assets — ending Total funded status at end of period Balance Sheet Classification: Other non-current assets Accrued employee liabilities Employee benefits Accumulated other comprehensive loss: Actuarial loss Tax effects/other U.S. Plans Year Ended December 31, 2020 2021 Non-U.S. Plans Year Ended December 31, 2020 2021 $ $ $ $ $ $ $ 891 — 17 (40) — — — (39) 829 659 61 12 — — (39) 693 (136) — — (136) 59 — 59 $ $ $ $ $ $ $ 838 — 24 97 (37) 3 — (34) 891 630 82 18 (37) — (34) 659 (232) — — (232) 127 — 127 $ $ $ $ $ $ $ 322 1 5 (10) (4) 1 (9) (7) 299 250 16 8 (4) (5) (7) 258 (41) 7 (1) (47) 32 (10) 22 $ $ $ $ $ $ $ 300 2 7 15 (4) 4 8 (10) 322 232 21 6 (2) 3 (10) 250 (72) 2 (1) (73) 52 (14) 38 Components of the net change in AOCI related to all defined benefit pension plans, exclusive of amounts attributable to non-controlling interests on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Changes in Equity for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, are as follows: (In millions) Actuarial (gain) loss Deferred taxes Currency/other Reclassification to net income Settlements U.S. Plans Year Ended December 31, 2020 2021 Non-U.S. Plans Year Ended December 31, 2020 2021 $ $ (65) $ — — (3) — (68) $ 55 $ — — (1) (5) 49 $ (18) $ 4 — (2) — (16) $ 1 — 3 (2) — 2 Actuarial loss for the year ended December 31, 2021 is primarily related to a decrease in discount rates partially offset by an increase in return on assets. Actuarial gains and losses are amortized using the 10% corridor approach representing 10% times the greater of plan assets and the projected benefit obligation. Generally, the expected return is determined using a market-related value of assets where gains (losses) are recognized in a systematic manner over five years. For less significant plans, fair value is used. 61 During 2020 the Company transferred a portion of the benefit obligation related to its defined benefit U.S. pension plan to a third-party issuer. The transaction met the criteria for settlement accounting, and accordingly, the Company recognized a $5 million pension settlement charge. Benefit payments, which reflect expected future service, are expected to be paid by the Company plans as follows: (In millions) 2022 2023 2024 2025 2026 Years 2027 - 2031 U.S. Plans Non-U.S. Plans $ 38 $ 38 39 40 40 217 7 8 9 8 9 53 During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company contributed $12 million to its U.S. employee retirement pension plans and $8 million to its non- U.S. employee retirement pension plans. Contributions related to certain non-U.S. plans of approximately $2 million have been deferred until 2024 due to COVID-19 relief measures. Additionally, the Company expects to make contributions to its non-US defined benefit pension plans of $4 million during 2022. Substantially all of the Company’s defined benefit pension plan assets are managed by external investment managers and held in trust by third-party custodians. The selection and oversight of these external service providers is the responsibility of the investment committees of the Company and their advisers. The selection of specific securities is at the discretion of the investment manager and is subject to the provisions set forth by written investment management agreements and related policy guidelines regarding permissible investments, risk management practices, and the use of derivative securities. Derivative securities may be used by investment managers as efficient substitutes for traditional securities, to reduce portfolio risks, or to hedge identifiable economic exposures. The use of derivative securities to engage in unrelated speculation is expressly prohibited. The primary objective of the pension funds is to pay the plans’ benefit and expense obligations when due. Given the long-term nature of these plan obligations and their sensitivity to interest rates, the investment strategy is intended to improve the funded status of its U.S. and non-U.S. plans over time while maintaining a prudent level of risk. Risk is managed primarily by diversifying each plan’s target asset allocation across equity, fixed income securities, and alternative investment strategies, and then maintaining the allocation within a specified range of its target. In addition, diversification across various investment subcategories within each plan is also maintained within specified ranges. The Company’s retirement plan asset allocation as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 and target allocation for 2022 are as follows: Equity securities Fixed income Alternative strategies Cash Other Target Allocation U.S. 2022 Non-U.S. 2022 Percentage of Plan Assets U.S. Non-U.S. 2021 2020 2021 2020 38 % 15 % 46 % 1 % — % 100 % 34 % 43 % 14 % 3 % 6 % 100 % 38 % 14 % 47 % 1 % — % 100 % 41 % 15 % 39 % 5 % — % 100 % 15 % 63 % 11 % 4 % 7 % 100 % 29 % 51 % 12 % 2 % 6 % 100 % The expected long-term rate of return for defined benefit pension plan assets was selected based on various inputs, including returns projected by various external sources for the different asset classes held by and to be held by the Company’s trusts and its targeted asset allocation. These projections incorporate both historical returns and forward-looking views regarding capital market returns, inflation, and other variables. Pension plan assets are valued at fair value using various inputs and valuation techniques. A description of the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure the fair value for each class of plan assets is included in Note 17, "Fair Value Measurements." 62 Discount Rate for Estimated Service and Interest Cost The Company uses the spot rate method to estimate the service and interest components of net periodic benefit cost for pension benefits for its U.S. and certain non-U.S. plans. The Company has elected to utilize an approach that discounts individual expected cash flows underlying interest and service costs using the applicable spot rates derived from the yield curve used to determine the benefit obligation to the relevant projected cash flows. The discount rate assumption is based on market rates for a hypothetical portfolio of high-quality corporate bonds rated Aa or better with maturities closely matched to the timing of projected benefit payments for each plan at its annual measurement date. The Company used discount rates ranging from 0.8% to 8.75% to determine its pension and other benefit obligations as of December 31, 2021. Defined Contribution Plans Most U.S. salaried employees and certain non-U.S. employees are eligible to participate in defined contribution plans by contributing a portion of their compensation which is partially matched by the Company. Matching contributions for the U.S. defined contribution plan are 100% on the first 6% of pay contributed. Matching contributions were suspended from May 1, 2020 to September 30, 2020 as a part of the cost saving actions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The expense related to all matching contributions was approximately $6 million in 2021, $5 million in 2020, and $8 million in 2019. Other Postretirement Employee Benefit Plans In Canada, the Company has a financial obligation for the cost of providing other postretirement health care and life insurance benefits to certain of its employees under Company-sponsored plans. These plans generally pay for the cost of health care and life insurance for retirees and dependents, less retiree contributions and co-pays. Other postretirement benefit obligations were $1 million and $1 million at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. NOTE 13. Stock-Based Compensation The Visteon Corporation 2010 Incentive Plan (the “2010 Incentive Plan”) provided for the grant of up to 4.75 million shares of common stock for restricted stock awards (“RSAs”), restricted stock units (“RSUs”), non-qualified stock options ("Stock Options"), stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), performance based share units ("PSUs"), and other stock based awards. At the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders in June 2020, the shareholders approved the Visteon Corporation 2020 Incentive Plan (the “2020 Incentive Plan”), replacing the 2010 Incentive Plan. Pursuant to the 2020 Incentive Plan, the Company may grant up to 1.5 million shares of common stock for RSA, RSUs, Stock Options, SARs, PSUs, and other stock based awards. The Company's stock- based compensation instruments are accounted for as equity awards or liability awards based on settlement intention as follows: • • For equity settled stock-based compensation instruments, compensation cost is measured based on grant date fair value of the award and is recognized over the applicable service period. For equity settled stock-based compensation instruments, the delivery of Company shares may be on a gross settlement basis or a net settlement basis. The Company's policy is to deliver such shares using treasury shares or issuing new shares. Cash settled stock-based compensation instruments are subject to liability accounting. At the end of each reporting period, the vested portion of the obligation for cash settled stock-based compensation instruments is adjusted to fair value based on the period-ending market prices of the Company's common stock. Related compensation expense is recognized based on changes to the fair value over the applicable service period. Generally, the Company's stock-based compensation instruments are subject to graded vesting and recognized on an accelerated basis. The settlement intention of the awards is at the discretion of the Organization and Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors. These stock-based compensation awards generally provide for accelerated vesting upon a change-in-control, which is defined in the 2020 Incentive Plan, which requires a double-trigger. Accordingly, the Company may be required to accelerate recognition of related expenses in future periods in connection with the change-in- control events and subsequent changes in employee responsibilities, if any. 63 The total recognized and unrecognized stock-based compensation expense is as follows: (In millions) Performance based share units Restricted stock units Stock options Total stock-based compensation expense Performance Based Share Units 2021 Year Ended December 31, 2020 2019 $ $ 5 $ 12 1 18 $ 6 $ 10 2 18 $ 6 $ 9 2 17 $ Unrecognized Stock-Based Compensation Expense December 31, 2021 8 11 — 19 The number of PSUs that will vest is based on the Company's achievement of a pre-established relative total shareholder return goal compared to its peer group of companies over a period of three years which may range from 0% to 200% of the target award. A summary of PSU activity is provided below: Non-vested as of December 31, 2018 Granted Vested Forfeited Non-vested as of December 31, 2019 Granted Vested Forfeited Non-vested as of December 31, 2020 Granted Vested Forfeited Non-vested as of December 31, 2021 PSUs (In thousands) Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value 195 $ 71 (73) (23) 170 94 (66) (18) 180 55 (52) (15) 168 $ 110.42 111.98 89.74 118.87 118.77 84.20 116.35 100.51 106.48 148.71 131.48 112.01 112.24 The grant date fair value for PSUs was determined using the Monte Carlo valuation model. Unrecognized compensation expense as of December 31, 2021 for PSUs to be settled in shares of the Company's common stock was $8 million for the non-vested portion and will be recognized over the remaining vesting period of approximately 1.8 years. The Company made cash settlement payments of less than $1 million for PSUs expected to be settled in cash during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. Unrecognized compensation expense as of December 31, 2021 was less than $1 million for the non- vested portion of these awards and will be recognized over the remaining vesting period of approximately 1.6 years. The Monte Carlo valuation model requires management to make various assumptions including the expected volatility, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. Volatility is based on the Company’s stock history using daily stock prices over a period commensurate with the expected life of the award. The risk- free rate was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in relation to the contractual life of the stock-based compensation instrument. The dividend yield was based on historical patterns and future expectations for Company dividends. 64 Weighted average assumptions used to estimate the fair value of PSUs granted during the years ended as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 are as follows: Expected volatility Risk-free rate Expected dividend yield Restricted Stock Units Year Ended December 31, 2021 2020 54.17 % 0.31 % — % 41.88 % 0.67 % — % The grant date fair value of RSUs is measured as the market closing price of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. These awards generally vest in one-third increments on the grant date anniversary over a three year vesting period. The Company granted 110,000, 223,000 and 133,000 RSUs, expected to be settled in shares, during the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively, at a weighted average grant date fair value of $116.71, $75.52 and $79.88 per share, respectively. Unrecognized compensation expense as of December 31, 2021 was $11 million for non-vested RSUs and will be recognized over the remaining vesting period of approximately 1.5 years. The Company granted 6,000, 8,000 and 8,000 RSUs, expected to be settled in cash, during each of the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively, at a weighted average grant date fair value of $112.52, $76.27 and $75.02 per share, respectively. The Company made cash settlement payments of less than $1 million during the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019. Unrecognized compensation expense as of December 31, 2021 was $1 million for non-vested RSUs and will be recognized on a weighted average basis over the remaining vesting period of approximately 1.6 years. A summary of RSU activity is provided below: RSUs (In thousands) Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Non-vested as of December 31, 2018 Granted Vested Forfeited Non-vested as of December 31, 2019 Granted Vested Forfeited Non-vested as of December 31, 2020 Granted Vested Forfeited Non-vested as of December 31, 2021 164 $ 141 (71) (18) 216 231 (84) (46) 317 117 (106) (43) 285 $ 105.24 79.61 93.60 92.18 90.98 77.57 95.70 77.47 82.31 124.34 84.80 88.64 97.68 Additionally, as of December 31, 2021, the Company has approximately 64,000 outstanding RSU's awarded at a weighted average grant date fair value of $103.02 under the Non-Employee Director Stock Unit Plan which vested immediately but are not settled until the participant terminates board service. Beginning in the third quarter 2020, non-employee director RSU awards were granted under the terms and conditions of the 2020 Incentive Plan, and these awards vest approximately one year from the date of grant. Activity related to non-employee director grants under the 2020 Incentive Plan is included in RSU table above. 65 Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights Stock Options and SARs are recorded with an exercise price equal to the average of the high and low market price of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. The grant date fair value of these awards is measured using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Stock Options and SARs generally vest in one-third increments on the grant date anniversary over a three-year vesting period and have an expiration date 7 or 10 years from the date of grant. The Company received payments of $2 million, $2 million and less than $1 million related to the exercise of Stock Options with total intrinsic value of options exercised of $1 million, less than $1 million, and less than $1 million during the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively. Unrecognized compensation expense for non-vested Stock Options as of December 31, 2021 was less than $1 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 0.9 years. The Black-Scholes option pricing model requires management to make various assumptions including the expected term, risk-free interest rate, dividend yield, and expected volatility. The expected term represents the period of time that granted awards are expected to be outstanding and is estimated based on considerations including the vesting period, contractual term, and anticipated employee exercise patterns. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in relation to the contractual life of the stock-based compensation instrument. The dividend yield is based on historical patterns and future expectations for Company dividends. Volatility is based on the Company’s stock history using daily stock prices over a period commensurate with the expected life of the award. Weighted average assumptions used to estimate the fair value of awards granted during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 are as follows: Expected term (in years) Expected volatility Risk-free interest rate Expected dividend yield No stock options were granted in 2021.

A summary of the differences between the provision for income taxes calculated at the U.S. statutory tax rate of 21% and the consolidated income tax provision from continuing operations is shown below: (In millions) Tax provision (benefit) at U.S. statutory rate of 21% Impact of foreign operations Non-U.S withholding taxes Tax holidays in foreign operations Tax reserve adjustments Change in valuation allowance Impact of U.S. tax reform Impact of tax law change Research credits Other Provision for income taxes 2021 Year Ended December 31, 2020 2019 $ $ 16 18 8 (5) 2 (10) — 1 (1) 2 31 $ $ (5) (15) 5 (4) 1 46 — — (1) 1 28 $ $ 21 23 10 (5) 2 (10) (18) — (1) 2 24 The Company’s provision for income taxes for continuing operations was $31 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The tax expense related to foreign operations of $18 million reflects $9 million related to U.S. income taxes in connection with global intangible low-tax income ("GILTI") and Subpart F inclusions; $6 million related to income tax expense, net of foreign tax credits, associated with income from foreign subsidiaries treated as branches for U.S. income tax purposes; net $2 million 67 income tax expense related primarily to adjusting prior year tax returns to deduct foreign taxes prior to expiration; and $1 million tax expense on foreign earnings taxed at rates higher than the U.S. statutory rate. Of the $18 million income tax expense items above, $17 million were offset by a corresponding income tax benefit associated with a reduction in the U.S. valuation allowance. On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Act”) was signed into law making significant changes to the U.S. Internal Revenue Code. Changes included, but were not limited to, a corporate tax rate decrease from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018, and require a one-time transition tax on accumulated, unremitted non-U.S. earnings. During 2019, the Company further adjusted its estimate of the impact of U.S. tax reform primarily related to assumptions made in calculating its 2018 GILTI inclusion resulting in an $18 million income tax benefit, the impact of which was entirely offset by a corresponding income tax charge associated with an increase in the U.S. valuation allowance. The Company has made policy elections to account for the GILTI as a period cost when incurred and apply the incremental cash tax savings approach when analyzing the impact GILTI could have on its U.S. valuation allowance assessment. Items impacting the Company’s 2020 effective tax rate include tax benefits related to foreign operations of $15 million which reflects $10 million income tax benefit related to electing to deduct expiring foreign tax credits previously derecognized; and $5 million income tax benefit to reflect reduction in outside basis deferred tax liabilities and foreign tax credits associated with income from foreign subsidiaries treated as branches for U.S. income tax purposes. These amounts were entirely offset by a corresponding $15 million income tax expense associated with an increase in the U.S. valuation allowance. Items impacting the Company’s 2019 effective tax rate include tax expense related to foreign operations of $23 million which reflects $6 million tax expense on foreign earnings taxed at rates higher than the U.S. statutory rate; $8 million related to income tax expense, net of foreign tax credits, associated with income from foreign subsidiaries treated as branches for U.S. income tax purposes; and $9 million related to U.S. income taxes in connection with GILTI and Subpart F inclusions, net of foreign tax credits, excluding the transition tax on the deemed repatriation of foreign earnings described above. These amounts were offset by a corresponding $17 million income tax benefit associated with a reduction in the U.S. valuation allowance. Tax reserve adjustments of $2 million primarily relates to certain transfer pricing positions taken between affiliates in Europe and the U.S. Deferred Income Taxes and Valuation Allowances The Company recorded deferred tax liabilities, net of valuation allowances, for U.S. and non-U.S. income taxes and non-U.S. withholding taxes of approximately $24 million and $27 million as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, on the undistributed earnings of certain consolidated and unconsolidated foreign affiliates as such earnings are intended to be repatriated in the foreseeable future. The amount the Company expects to repatriate is based upon a variety of factors including current year earnings of the foreign affiliates, foreign investment needs, and the cash flow needs the Company has in the U.S. and this practice has not changed following incurring the transition tax under the Act. The Company has not provided for deferred income taxes or foreign withholding taxes on the remainder of undistributed earnings from consolidated foreign affiliates because such earnings are considered to be permanently reinvested. It is not practicable to determine the amount of deferred tax liability on such earnings as the actual tax liability, if any, is dependent on circumstances existing when remittance occurs. The Company evaluates its deferred income taxes quarterly to determine if valuation allowances are required or should be adjusted. This assessment considers, among other matters, the nature, frequency, and amount of recent losses, the duration of statutory carryforward periods, and tax planning strategies. In making such judgments, significant weight is given to evidence that can be objectively verified. If (i) recent improvements to financial results continue in the U.S., or (ii) recovery of the global economy after the COVID-19 pandemic including the semiconductor shortages occurs faster than expected, the Company believes it is possible that sufficient positive evidence may be available to release all, or a portion, of its U.S. valuation allowance in the next twelve to 24 months. In March 2019, the closure of tax audits in Germany allowed the Company to initiate a tax planning strategy previously determined not to be prudent. This strategy provided the necessary positive evidence to support the future utilization of a portion of the Company's deferred tax assets in Germany resulting in a $12 million valuation allowance release during the first quarter of 2019. In September 2020, the Company approved a restructuring program impacting engineering and administrative functions globally, including German operations. The September action, combined with earlier 2020 actions, necessitated a reassessment of the future utilization of deferred tax assets in Germany resulting in recording a $4 million discrete income tax expense adjustment during the third quarter of 2020 to increase the valuation allowance. During the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company completed an analysis related to its Brazil affiliate, Visteon Amazonas (“Amazonas”), resulting in the permanent 68 exclusion of certain incentive income from taxable profits. Consequently, the Company concluded the generation of future taxable income is no longer sufficient to realize the Company’s net deferred tax assets at Amazonas resulting in recording a $3 million valuation allowance during the fourth quarter of 2020. The components of deferred income tax assets and liabilities are as follows: (In millions) Deferred Tax Assets: Net operating losses and credit carryforwards Employee benefit plans Lease liability Fixed assets and intangibles Warranty Inventory Restructuring Capitalized expenditures for tax reporting Deferred income Other Valuation allowance Total deferred tax assets Deferred Tax Liabilities: Outside basis investment differences, including withholding tax Right-of-use assets Fixed assets and intangibles All other Total deferred tax liabilities Net deferred tax assets Consolidated Balance Sheet Classification: Other non-current assets Deferred tax liabilities non-current Net deferred tax assets December 31, 2021 2020 $ $ $ $ $ $ 1,163 46 47 17 11 9 6 5 13 55 (1,207) 165 63 46 14 22 145 20 47 27 20 $ $ $ $ $ $ 1,192 80 59 12 14 9 13 5 10 63 (1,263) 194 65 57 18 27 167 27 55 28 27 At December 31, 2021, the Company had available non-U.S. net operating loss carryforwards and capital loss carryforwards of $1.4 billion and $17 million, respectively, which have remaining carryforward periods ranging from 1 year to indefinite. The Company had available U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards of $1.8 billion at December 31, 2021, which have remaining carryforward periods ranging from 6 years to indefinite. U.S. foreign tax credit carryforwards are $375 million at December 31, 2021, which have remaining carryforward periods ranging from 1 to 8 years. U.S. research tax credit carryforwards are $22 million at December 31, 2021. These credits will begin to expire in 2030. The Company had available tax-effected U.S. state operating loss carryforwards of $32 million at December 31, 2021, which will expire at various dates between 2022 and 2041. In connection with the Company's emergence from bankruptcy and resulting change in ownership on the Effective Date, an annual limitation was imposed on the utilization of U.S. net operating losses, U.S. credit carryforwards and certain U.S. built-in losses (collectively referred to as “tax attributes”) under Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) Sections 382 and 383. The collective limitation is approximately $120 million per year on tax attributes in existence at the date of change in ownership. Additionally, the Company has approximately $375 million of U.S. foreign tax credits and approximately $26 million of U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards that are not subject to any current limitation since they were realized after the Effective Date. Unrecognized Tax Benefits, Inclusive of Discontinued Operations The Company operates in multiple jurisdictions throughout the world and the income tax returns of its subsidiaries in various tax jurisdictions are subject to periodic examination by respective tax authorities. The Company regularly assesses the status of 69 these examinations and the potential for adverse and/or favorable outcomes to determine the adequacy of its provision for income taxes. The Company believes that it has adequately provided for tax adjustments that it believes are more likely than not to be realized as a result of any ongoing or future examination. Accounting estimates associated with uncertain tax positions require the Company to make judgments regarding the sustainability of each uncertain tax position based on its technical merits. If the Company determines it is more likely than not a tax position will be sustained based on its technical merits, the Company records the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. These estimates are updated at each reporting date based on the facts, circumstances and information available. Due to the complexity of these uncertainties, the ultimate resolution may result in a payment that is materially different from the Company's current estimate of the liabilities recorded. Gross unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2021 and 2020 were $16 million and $14 million, respectively. Of these amounts, approximately $9 million and $7 million, respectively, represent the amount of unrecognized benefits that, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate. The gross unrecognized tax benefit differs from that which would impact the effective tax rate due to uncertain tax positions embedded in other deferred tax attributes carrying a full valuation allowance. During 2021 and 2020, the Company recorded a $2 million and $1 million, respectively, net increase in tax expense related to uncertain tax positions attributable to certain related party transactions. The Company records interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense and related amounts accrued at December 31, 2021 and 2020 was $2 million in both years. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal tax examinations for years before 2014, or state, local or non-U.S. income tax examinations for years before 2003, although U.S. net operating losses carried forward into open tax years technically remain open to adjustment. Although it is not possible to predict the timing of the resolution of all ongoing tax audits with accuracy, it is reasonably possible that certain tax proceedings in the U.S., Europe, Asia and Mexico could conclude within the next twelve months and result in a significant increase or decrease in the balance of gross unrecognized tax benefits. Given the number of years, jurisdictions and positions subject to examination, the Company is unable to estimate the full range of possible adjustments to the balance of unrecognized tax benefits. The long-term portion of uncertain income tax positions (including interest) in the amount of $8 million is included in Other non-current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, while $3 million is reflected as a reduction of a deferred tax asset related to a net operating loss included in Other non-current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits including amounts attributable to discontinued operations is as follows: (In millions) Beginning balance Tax positions related to current period Additions Tax positions related to prior periods Additions Reductions Ending balance Year Ended December 31, 2021 2020 $ $ 14 $ 3 — (1) 16 $ 13 — 1 — 14 During 2012, Brazil tax authorities issued tax assessment notices to Visteon Sistemas Automotivos (“Sistemas”) related to the sale of its chassis business, and in connection with this assessment the Company recorded a long-term tax income tax deposit during 2013. During 2021, the Company received a favorable judgement related to this deposit. Adjusted for currency impacts and interest, the Company received net $9 million cash settlement from the Brazilian government during the fourth quarter of 2021, while $2 million was applied against other long-term labor-related tax debts pursuant to the judgement. Income tax refund claims associated with other jurisdictions, total $7 million as of December 31, 2021, and are included in Other non-current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. 70 NOTE 15. Stockholders’ Equity and Non-controlling Interests Share Repurchase Program In January 2018, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a total of $700 million of share repurchases which expired on December 31, 2020. A total of 3,361,420 shares at an average price of $99.91 for an aggregate purchase amount of $336 million was purchased from third-party financial institutions under this authorization. Treasury Stock As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, the Company held 27,014,711 and 27,156,537 shares of common stock in treasury which may be used for satisfying obligations under employee incentive compensation arrangements.

NOTE 17. Fair Value Measurements Fair Value Hierarchy The Company uses a three-level fair value hierarchy that categorizes assets and liabilities measured at fair value based on the observability of the inputs utilized in the valuation. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to the quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities and lowest priority to unobservable inputs. • • • Level 1 – Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on unadjusted quoted market prices for identical assets and liabilities in an active market that the Company has the ability to access. Level 2 – Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or model inputs that are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level 3 – Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Assets which are valued at net asset value per share ("NAV"), or its equivalent, as a practical expedient are reported outside the fair value hierarchy, but are included in the total assets for reporting and reconciliation purposes. 73 The fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows: (In millions) Asset Category: Retirement plan assets Foreign currency instruments Liability Category: Foreign currency instruments Interest rate swaps (In millions) Asset Category: Retirement plan assets Foreign currency instruments Liability Category: Foreign currency instruments Interest rate swaps Level 1 Level 2 December 31, 2021 Level 3 NAV Total 11 $ — — $ — $ 303 $ 2 9 $ 4 $ 18 $ — — $ — $ 619 $ — — $ — $ 951 2 9 4 Level 1 Level 2 December 31, 2020 Level 3 NAV Total 114 $ — $ — $ — $ 228 $ 1 $ 27 $ 11 $ 18 $ — $ — $ — $ 549 $ — $ — $ — $ 909 1 27 11 $ $ $ $ $ $ $ Foreign currency instruments and interest rate swaps are valued using industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including time value, volatility factors, current market, and contractual prices for the underlying and non-performance risk. Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument, can be derived from observable data, or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace. The carrying amounts of all other non-retirement plan financial instruments approximate their fair values due to their relatively short-term maturities. Retirement plan assets pertain to a diverse set of securities and investment vehicles held by the Company’s defined benefit pension plans. These assets possess varying fair value measurement attributes such that certain portions are categorized within each level of the fair value hierarchy as based upon the level of observability of the inputs utilized in the valuation of the particular asset. The Company may, as a practical expedient, estimate the fair value of certain investments using NAV of the investment as of the reporting date. This practical expedient generally deals with investments that permit an investor to redeem its investment directly with, or receive distributions from, the investee at times specified in the investee’s governing documents. Examples of these investments (often referred to as alternative investments) may include ownership interests in real assets, certain credit strategies, and hedging and diversifying strategies. They are commonly in the form of limited partnership interests. The Company uses NAV as a practical expedient when valuing investments in alternative asset classes and funds which are a limited partnership or similar investment vehicle. Retirement Plan Assets Retirement plan assets consist of the following: • • Short-term investments, such as cash and cash equivalents, are immediately available or are highly liquid and not subject to significant market risk. Assets comprised of cash, short-term sovereign debt, or high credit-quality money market securities and instruments held directly by the plan are categorized as Level 1. Assets in a registered money market fund are reported as registered investment companies. Assets in a short-term investment fund ("STIF") are categorized as Level 2. Cash and cash equivalent assets denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are reflected in U.S. dollar terms at the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet dates. Registered investment companies are mutual funds that are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Mutual funds may invest in various types of securities or combinations thereof including equities, fixed income securities, and other assets that are subject to varying levels of market risk and are categorized as Level 1. The share prices for mutual funds are published at the close of each business day. 74 • • • • • Treasury and government securities consist of debt securities issued by the U.S. and non-U.S. sovereign governments and agencies, thereof. Assets with a high degree of liquidity and frequent trading activity are categorized as Level 1 while others are valued by independent valuation firms that employ standard methodologies associated with valuing fixed-income securities and are categorized as Level 2. Corporate debt securities consist of fixed income securities issued by corporations. Assets with a high degree of liquidity and frequent trading activity are categorized as Level 1 while others are valued by independent valuation firms that employ standard methodologies associated with valuing fixed-income securities and are categorized as Level 2. Common and preferred stocks consist of shares of equity securities. These are directly-held assets that are generally publicly traded in regulated markets that provide readily available market prices and are categorized as Level 1. Common trust funds are comprised of shares or units in commingled funds that are not publicly traded. The underlying assets in these funds, including equities and fixed income securities, are generally publicly traded in regulated markets that provide readily available market prices. The entire balance of an investment in a common trust fund that does not have a readily observable market prices as available on a third-party information source, notwithstanding whether the investment has daily liquidity, is categorized as Level 2; unless the investment fund has investment holdings significant to its valuation that are considered as Level 3; or the fund is considered as an alternative strategy (including hedge and diversifying strategies) for which valuation is established by NAV as a practical expedient. Liability Driven Investing (“LDI”) is an investment strategy that utilizes certain instruments and securities, interest-rate swaps and other financial derivative instruments intended to hedge a portion of the changes in pension liabilities associated with changes in the actuarial discount rate as applied to the plan’s liabilities. The instruments and securities used typically include total return swaps and other financial derivative instruments. The valuation methodology of the financial derivative instruments contained in this category of assets utilizes standard pricing models associated with fixed income derivative instruments and are categorized as Level 2. • Other investments include miscellaneous assets and liabilities and are primarily comprised of pending transactions and collateral settlements and are categorized as Level 2. • Limited partnerships and hedge funds represent investment vehicles with underlying exposures in alternative credit, hedge and diversifying strategies (including hedge fund of funds), real assets, and certain equity exposures. The underlying assets in these funds may include securities transacted in active markets as well as other assets that have values less readily observable and may require valuation techniques that require inputs that are not readily observable. Investment in these funds may be subject to a specific notice period prior to the intended transaction date. In addition, transactions in these funds may require longer settlement terms than traditional mutual funds. These assets are valued based on their respective NAV as a practical expedient to estimate fair value due to the absence of readily available market prices. • Insurance contracts are reported at cash surrender value and have significant unobservable inputs and are categorized as Level 3. 75 The fair values of the Company’s U.S. retirement plan assets are as follows: Asset Category Asset Category (In millions) Common trust funds LDI Limited partnerships and hedge funds Cash and cash equivalents Total (In millions) Registered investment companies Common trust funds LDI Limited partnerships and hedge funds Cash and cash equivalents Total The fair values of the Company’s Non-U.S. retirement plan assets are as follows: Level 1 December 31, 2021 NAV Level 2 Total — — — — — $ — 93 — 10 103 $ 463 — 127 — 590 $ 463 93 127 10 693 Level 1 December 31, 2020 NAV Level 2 Total 4 $ — — — 1 5 $ — $ — 100 — 34 134 $ — $ 436 — 84 — 520 $ 4 436 100 84 35 659 $ $ $ (In millions) Asset Category Registered investment companies Treasury and government securities Cash and cash equivalents Corporate debt securities Common and preferred stock Common trust funds Limited partnerships Insurance contracts Derivative instruments Total (In millions) Asset Category Registered investment companies Treasury and government securities Cash and cash equivalents Corporate debt securities Common and preferred stock Common trust funds Limited partnerships Insurance contracts Derivative instruments Total $ $ $ $ Level 1 Level 2 December 31, 2021 Level 3 NAV Total — $ — 9 — 2 — — — — 11 $ 21 $ 10 1 7 — 138 — — 23 200 $ — — — — — — — 18 — 18 $ $ — $ — — — — 5 24 — — 29 $ Level 1 Level 2 December 31, 2020 Level 3 NAV Total 10 $ 91 6 — 2 — — — — 109 $ 76 68 $ 13 — 6 — 11 1 — (5) 94 $ — $ — — — — — 1 17 — 18 $ — $ — — — — 14 15 — — 29 $ 21 10 10 7 2 143 24 18 23 258 78 104 6 6 2 25 17 17 (5) 250 The change in fair value of insurance contracts which used significant unobservable inputs was primarily due to purchases during the years ended December 31, 2021. Items Measured at Fair Value on a Non-recurring Basis The Company measures certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis, which are not included in the table above. As these non- recurring fair value measurements are generally determined using unobservable inputs, these fair value measurements are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate the value of these long-lived asset groups are not recoverable. During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $9 million. The fair value measurements related to the long-lived asset group rely primarily on Company-specific inputs and the Company’s assumptions about the use of the assets, as observable inputs are not available (Level 3). To determine the fair value of the long-lived asset group, the Company utilized a cost and market approach, measuring fair value on the standalone basis value premise. The Company believes the assumptions and estimates used to determine the estimated fair value of the long-lived asset group is reasonable; however, these estimates and assumptions are subject to a high degree of uncertainty. Due to many variables inherent in estimating fair value, differences in assumptions could have a material effect on the analysis. As the net carrying value of the long-lived asset group in Brazil exceeded its fair values, the Company recorded a long-lived asset impairment charge of $9 million related to property and equipment during the year ended December 31, 2021. Refer to Note 4, “Restructuring and Impairment” for additional information on asset impairments. No impairment charges were recorded for the year ended December 31, 2020. Fair Value of Debt The fair value of debt was $354 million and $347 million as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Fair value estimates were based on quoted market prices or current rates for the same or similar issues or on the current rates offered to the Company for debt of the same remaining maturities. Accordingly, the Company's debt is classified as Level 1 "Market Prices" and Level 2 "Other Observable Inputs" in the fair value hierarchy. NOTE 18. Financial Instruments The Company is exposed to various market risks including, but not limited to, changes in foreign currency exchange rates and market interest rates. The Company manages these risks, in part, through the use of derivative financial instruments. The maximum length of time over which the Company hedges the variability in the future cash flows for forecast transactions, excluding those forecast transactions related to the payment of variable interest on existing debt, is eighteen months from the date of the forecast transaction. The maximum length of time over which the Company hedges forecast transactions related to the payment of variable interest on existing debt is the term of the underlying debt. The use of derivative financial instruments creates exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counter-party to the derivative financial instruments. The Company limits this exposure by entering into agreements including master netting arrangements directly with a variety of major financial institutions with high credit standards that are expected to fully satisfy their obligations under the contracts. Additionally, the Company’s ability to utilize derivatives to manage risks is dependent on credit and market conditions. The Company presents its derivative positions and any related material collateral under master netting arrangements that provide for the net settlement of contracts, by counterparty, in the event of default or termination. Derivative financial instruments designated and non-designated as hedging instruments are included in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. The Company is not required to maintain cash collateral with its counterparties in relation to derivative transactions. Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value on a recurring basis under an income approach using industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including time value, volatility factors, current market and contractual prices for the underlying and non-performance risk. Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument or may derived from observable data. Accordingly, the Company's currency instruments are classified as Level 2, "Other Observable Inputs" in the fair value hierarchy. For a designated cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the change in the fair value of the derivative instrument is recorded in AOCI in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. When the underlying hedged transaction is realized, the gain or loss previously included in AOCI is recorded in earnings and reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Operations on the same line as the gain or loss on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk. The gain or loss associated with changes in the fair value of 77 undesignated cash flow hedges are recorded immediately in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, on the same line as the associated risk. For a designated net investment hedge, the effective portion of the change in the fair value of the derivative instrument is recorded as a cumulative translation adjustment in AOCI in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Derivatives not designated as a hedge are adjusted to fair value through operating results. Cash flows associated with designated hedges are reported in the same category as the underlying hedged item. Cash flows associated with derivatives are reported in net cash provided from operating activities in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows except for cash flows associated with net investment hedges, which are reported in net cash used by investing activities. The Company presents its derivative positions and any related material collateral under master netting arrangements that provide for the net settlement of contracts, by counterparty, in the event of default or termination. Derivative financial instruments are included in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. There is no cash collateral on any of these derivatives. Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk The Company is exposed to various market risks including, but not limited to, changes in currency exchange rates arising from the sale of products in countries other than the manufacturing source, foreign currency denominated supplier payments, debt, dividends and investments in subsidiaries. The Company manages these risks, in part, through the use of derivative financial instruments. The maximum length of time over which the Company hedges the variability in the future cash flows related to transactions, excluding those transactions as related to the payment of variable interest on existing debt, is eighteen months. The maximum length of time over which the Company hedges forecasted transactions related to variable interest payments is the term of the underlying debt. Currency Exchange Rate Instruments: The Company primarily uses forward contracts denominated in euro, Japanese yen, Thai baht and Mexican peso intended to mitigate the variability of cash flows denominated in currency other than the hedging entity's functional currency. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had foreign currency hedge economic derivative instruments, with notional amounts of approximately $32 million and $18 million, respectively. The aggregate fair value of these derivatives is a liability of less than $1 million and an asset of $1 million as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The difference between the gross and net value of these derivatives after offset by counter party is not material. Cross Currency Swaps: The Company has executed cross-currency swap transactions intended to mitigate the variability of the U.S. dollar value of its investment in certain of its non-U.S. entities. These transactions are designated as net investment hedges and the Company has elected to assess hedge effectiveness under the spot method. Accordingly, periodic changes in the fair value of the derivative instruments attributable to factor other than spot exchange rate variability are excluded from the measure of hedge ineffectiveness and reported directly in earnings each reporting period. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had cross currency swaps with an aggregate notional value of $250 million. The aggregate fair value of these derivatives is an asset of $2 million and a non-current liability of $9 million as of December 31, 2021 and a non-current liability of $27 million as of December 31, 2020. As of December 31, 2021, a gain of approximately $4 million is expected to be reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings within the next 12 months. Interest Rate Risk The Company utilizes interest rate swap instruments to manage its exposure and to mitigate the impact of interest rate variability. The instruments are designated as cash flow hedges, accordingly, the effective portion of the periodic changes in fair value is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income, a component of shareholders' equity. Subsequently, the accumulated gains and losses recorded in equity are reclassified to income in the period during which the hedged cash flow impacts earnings. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional value of $300 million. The aggregate fair value of these derivative transactions is a non-current liability of approximately $4 million and $11 million, as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. As of December 31, 2021, a loss of approximately $4 million is expected to be reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings within the next 12 months. 78 Financial Statement Presentation Gains and losses on derivative financial instruments for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 are as follows: (In millions) Foreign currency risk – Cost of sales: Cash flow hedges Interest rate risk - Interest expense, net: Net investment hedges Interest rate swap Concentrations of Credit Risk Recorded Income (Loss) in AOCI, net of tax Amount of Gain (Loss) Reclassified from AOCI into Income (Loss) Recorded in Income (Loss) 2021 2020 2021 2020 2021 2020 — — — — 25 — 25 $ (14) (9) (23) $ 6 (6) — $ 5 (4) 1 $ $ 1 — — 1 $ — — — — Financial instruments including cash equivalents, derivative contracts, and accounts receivable, expose the Company to counter-party credit risk for non- performance. The Company’s counterparties for cash equivalents and derivative contracts are banks and financial institutions that meet the Company’s requirement of high credit standing. The Company’s counterparties for derivative contracts are substantially investment and commercial banks with significant experience using such derivatives. The Company manages its credit risk through policies requiring minimum credit standing and limiting credit exposure to any one counter-party and through monitoring counter-party credit risks. The Company’s concentration of credit risk related to derivative contracts as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 is not material. The following is a summary of the percentage of net sales and accounts receivable from the Company's customers with a percentage of net sales greater than 10 percent: Ford BMW Percentage of Total Net Sales Percentage of Total Accounts Receivable 2021 22 % 11 % December 31, 2020 22 % 11 % 2019 December 31, 2021 18 % 5 % December 31, 2020 13 % 8 % 22 % 8 % NOTE 19. Commitments and Contingencies Litigation and Claims In 2003, the Local Development Finance Authority of the Charter Township of Van Buren, Michigan issued approximately $28 million in bonds finally maturing in 2032, the proceeds of which were used at least in part to assist in the development of the Company’s U.S. headquarters located in the Township. During January 2010, the Company and the Township entered into a settlement agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) that, among other things, reduced the taxable value of the headquarters property to current market value. The Settlement Agreement also provided that the Company would negotiate in good faith with the Township in the event that property tax payments were inadequate to permit the Township to meet its payment obligations with respect to the bonds. In October 2019, the Township notified the Company that the Township had incurred a shortfall under the bonds of less than $1 million and requested that the Company meet to discuss payment. The parties met in November 2019 but no agreement was reached. On December 9, 2019, the Township commenced litigation against the Company in Michigan’s Wayne County Circuit Court claiming damages of $28 million related to what the Township alleges to be the current shortfall and projected future shortfalls under the bonds. The Company disputes the factual and legal assertions made by the Township and will defend the matter vigorously. The Company is not able to estimate the possible loss or range of loss in connection with this matter. In November 2013, the Company and Halla Visteon Climate Corporation ("HVCC"), jointly filed an Initial Notice of Voluntary Self-Disclosure statement with the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) regarding certain 79 sales of automotive HVAC components by a minority-owned, Chinese joint venture of HVCC into Iran. The Company updated that notice in December 2013, and subsequently filed a voluntary self-disclosure regarding these sales with OFAC in March 2014. In May 2014, the Company voluntarily filed a supplementary self-disclosure identifying additional sales of automotive HVAC components by the Chinese joint venture, as well as similar sales involving an HVCC subsidiary in China, totaling approximately $12 million, and filed a final voluntary-self disclosure with OFAC on October 17, 2014. OFAC is currently reviewing the results of the Company’s investigation. Following that review, OFAC may conclude that the disclosed sales resulted in violations of U.S. economic sanctions laws and warrant the imposition of civil penalties, such as fines, limitations on the Company's ability to export products from the United States, and/or referral for further investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice. Any such fines or restrictions may be material to the Company’s financial results in the period in which they are imposed, but is not able to estimate the possible loss or range of loss in connection with this matter. Additionally, disclosure of this conduct and any fines or other action relating to this conduct could harm the Company’s reputation and have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. The Company cannot predict when OFAC will conclude its own review of our voluntary self-disclosures or whether it may impose any of the potential penalties described above. The Company's operations in Brazil are subject to highly complex labor, tax, customs and other laws. While the Company believes that it is in compliance with such laws, it is periodically engaged in litigation regarding the application of these laws. As of December 31, 2021, the Company maintained accruals of approximately $8 million for claims aggregating approximately $51 million in Brazil. The amounts accrued represent claims that are deemed probable of loss and are reasonably estimable based on the Company's assessment of the claims and prior experience with similar matters. The adverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic led to a significant reduction in vehicle production in the first half of 2020, which was followed by increased consumer demand and vehicle production schedules in the second half of 2020. Because semiconductor suppliers have been unable to rapidly reallocate production to serve the automotive industry, the surge in demand has led to a worldwide semiconductor supply shortage. The Company's semiconductor suppliers, along with most automotive component supply companies that use semiconductors, have been unable to fully meet the vehicle production demands of our customers due to events which are outside the Company's control, including but not limited to, the COVID-19 pandemic, the global semiconductor shortage, a fire at a semiconductor fabrication facility in Japan, significant weather events impacting semiconductor supplier facilities in the southern United States, and other extraordinary events. The Company is working closely with suppliers and customers to attempt to minimize potential adverse impacts of these events. Certain customers have communicated that they expect the Company to absorb some of the financial impact of their reduced production and are reserving their rights to claim damages arising from supply shortages, however, the Company believes it has a number of legal defenses to such claims and intends to defend any such claims vigorously. The Company has also notified semiconductor suppliers that it will seek compensation from them for failure to deliver sufficient quantities. The Company is not able to estimate the possible loss or range of loss in connection with this matter at this time. While the Company believes its accruals for litigation and claims are adequate, the final amounts required to resolve such matters could differ materially from recorded estimates and the Company's results of operations and cash flows could be materially affected. Product Warranty and Recall Amounts accrued for product warranty and recall provisions are based on management’s best estimates of the amounts that will ultimately be required to settle such items. The Company’s estimates for product warranty and recall obligations are developed with support from its sales, engineering, quality and legal functions and include due consideration of contractual arrangements, past experience, current claims and related information, production changes, industry and regulatory developments and various other considerations. These estimates do not include amounts which may ultimately be recovered from the Company's suppliers. The Company can provide no assurances that it will not experience material obligations in the future or that it will not incur significant costs to defend or settle such obligations beyond the amounts accrued or beyond what the Company may recover from its suppliers. 80 The following table provides a reconciliation of changes in the product warranty and recall liability: (In millions) Beginning balance Provisions Change in estimates Currency/other Settlements Ending balance Guarantees and Commitments Year Ended December 31, 2021 2020 64 $ 16 (1) (4) (25) 50 $ 49 38 (7) 3 (19) 64 $ $ As part of the agreements of the Climate Transaction and Interiors Divestiture, the Company continues to provide lease guarantees to divested Climate and Interiors entities. As of December 31, 2021, the Company has approximately $2 million and $2 million of outstanding guarantees, related to the divested Climate and Interiors entities, respectively. The guarantees represent the maximum potential amount that the Company could be required to pay under the guarantees in the event of default by the guaranteed parties. These guarantees will generally cease upon expiration of current lease agreement which expire in 2026 and 2024 for the Climate and Interiors entities, respectively. Other Contingent Matters Various legal actions, governmental investigations and proceedings and claims are pending or may be instituted or asserted in the future against the Company, including those arising out of alleged defects in the Company’s products; customs classifications, governmental regulations relating to safety; employment-related matters; customer, supplier and other contractual relationships; intellectual property rights; product warranties; product recalls; tax matters; and environmental matters. Some of the foregoing matters may involve compensatory, punitive or antitrust or other treble damage claims in very large amounts, or demands for recall campaigns, environmental remediation programs, sanctions, or other relief which, if granted, would require very large expenditures. The Company enters into agreements that contain indemnification provisions in the normal course of business for which the risks are considered nominal and impracticable to estimate. Contingencies are subject to many uncertainties, and the outcome of individual litigated matters is not predictable with assurance. Reserves have been established by the Company for matters discussed in the immediately foregoing paragraph where losses are deemed probable and reasonably estimable. It is possible, however, that some of the matters discussed in the foregoing paragraph could be decided unfavorably to the Company and could require the Company to pay damages or make other expenditures in amounts, or a range of amounts, that cannot be estimated as of December 31, 2021 and that are in excess of established reserves. The Company does not reasonably expect, except as otherwise described herein, based on its analysis, that any adverse outcome from such matters would have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows, although such an outcome is possible. NOTE 20. Segment Information and Revenue Recognition The Company’s reportable segment is Electronics. The Electronics segment provides vehicle cockpit electronics products to customers, including instrument clusters, information displays, infotainment systems, audio systems, telematics solutions, battery monitoring systems, and head-up displays. As the Company has one reportable segment, net sales, total assets, depreciation, amortization and capital expenditures are equal to consolidated results. Financial results for the Company's reportable segment have been prepared using a management approach, which is consistent with the basis and manner in which financial information is evaluated by the Company's chief operating decision maker in allocating resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker, the Chief Executive Officer, evaluates the performance of the Company’s segment primarily based on net sales, before elimination of inter-company shipments, Adjusted EBITDA (a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure, as defined below) and operating assets. The accounting policies for the reportable segments are the same as those described in the Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. 81 Segment Adjusted EBITDA The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income attributable to the Company adjusted to eliminate the impact of depreciation and amortization, restructuring and impairment expense, net interest expense, equity in net income of non-consolidated affiliates, loss on divestiture, provision for income taxes, discontinued operations, net income attributable to non-controlling interests, non-cash stock-based compensation expense, and other gains and losses not reflective of the Company's ongoing operations. Adjusted EBITDA is presented as a supplemental measure of the Company's financial performance that management believes is useful to investors because the excluded items may vary significantly in timing or amounts and/or may obscure trends useful in evaluating and comparing the Company's operating activities across reporting periods. Not all companies use identical calculations and, accordingly, the Company's presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized term under U.S. GAAP and does not purport to be a substitute for net income as an indicator of operating performance or cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and is not intended to be a measure of cash flow available for management's discretionary use, as it does not consider certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax payments and debt service requirements. In addition, the Company uses Adjusted EBITDA (i) as a factor in incentive compensation decisions, (ii) to evaluate the effectiveness of the Company's business strategies and (iii) the Company's credit agreements use measures similar to Adjusted EBITDA to measure compliance with certain covenants. Segment Adjusted EBITDA was $228 million, $192 million and $234 million for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019. The reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net income attributable to Visteon for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 is as follows: (In millions) Net income (loss) attributable to Visteon Corporation Depreciation and amortization Restructuring and impairment expense Provision for income taxes Non-cash, stock-based compensation expense Interest expense, net Net income attributable to non-controlling interests Net (income) loss from discontinued operations, net of tax Equity in net income of non-consolidated affiliates Other, net Adjusted EBITDA 2021 $ $ 82 Year Ended December 31, 2020 2019 41 $ 108 14 31 18 8 9 — (6) 5 228 $ (56) $ 104 76 28 18 11 8 — (6) 9 192 $ 70 100 4 24 17 9 11 1 (6) 4 234 Net Sales (a) Year Ended December 31, 2020 2021 Tangible Long-Lived Assets, Net (b) December 31, 2019 2021 2020 $ $ Financial Information by Geographic Region Financial information about net sales and net tangible long-lived assets by country are as follows: $ (In millions) United States Mexico Total North America Portugal Slovakia Tunisia Other Europe Total Europe China Domestic China Export Total China Japan India Other Asia-Pacific Total Other Asia-Pacific South America Eliminations 586 55 641 608 257 53 44 962 576 199 775 234 151 39 424 80 (109) 2,773 536 29 565 635 251 41 40 967 479 196 675 244 93 41 378 71 (108) 2,548 $ (a) Company sales based on geographic region where sale originates and not where customer is located.

Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure None. Item 9A. Controls and Procedures Disclosure Controls and Procedures The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in periodic reports filed with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. At December 31, 2021, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive and Financial Officers, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2021. Internal Control over Financial Reporting Management’s report on internal control over financial reporting is presented in Item 8 of this Form 10-K “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” of this Annual Report on Form 10-K along with the attestation report of Ernst & Young LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as at December 31, 2021.

In 2020, the $85 million other increase in the valuation allowance for deferred taxes is comprised of $49 million related to valuation allowance benefits allocated to discontinued operations associated with electing to deduct expiring foreign tax credits previously derecognized for which a valuation allowance is maintained; $20 million related to exchange; and $16 million primarily related to other comprehensive income. In 2019, the $2 million overall decrease in the valuation allowance for deferred taxes is comprised of $7 million related to exchange, partially offset by $5 million related to other comprehensive income. 88 Exhibit No. 2.1 2.2 3.1 3.2 4.1 4.2 10.1 10.2 10.2.1 10.2.2 10.2.3 10.2.4 10.2.5 10.3 10.3.1 10.3.2 10.4 Exhibit Index Description Fifth Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization, filed August 31, 2010 (incorporated by reference to Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K of Visteon Corporation filed on September 7, 2010 (File No. 001-15827)).

Authorized Capital Stock Visteon has the authority to issue a total of 300,000,000 shares of capital stock, consisting of: • 250,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share; and • 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share. Common Stock The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of our common stock are subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of shares of any series of our preferred stock which we may designate and issue in the future. Dividend Rights. Subject to limitations under Delaware law, preferences that may apply to any outstanding shares of preferred stock, and contractual restrictions, holders of our common stock are entitled to receive ratably dividends or other distributions when and if declared by the board of directors. In addition to such restrictions, whether any future dividends are paid will depend on decisions that will be made by the board of directors and will depend on then existing conditions, including our financial condition, contractual restrictions, corporate law restrictions, capital requirements and business prospects. The ability of the board of directors to declare dividends also will be subject to the rights of any holders of outstanding shares of our preferred stock and the availability of sufficient funds under the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) to pay dividends. Liquidation Rights. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Visteon, the holders of our common stock will be entitled to share in the net assets of Visteon available after the payment of all debts and other liabilities and subject to the prior rights of any outstanding class of our preferred stock. Preemptive Rights. Pursuant to our third amended and restated certificate of incorporation, the holders of our common stock have no preemptive rights. Conversion Rights. Shares of our common stock are not convertible. Voting Rights. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of our preferred stock, each outstanding share of our common stock is entitled to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. The holders of our common stock will not have cumulative voting rights. Exhibit 4.2 Preferred Stock Under the terms of our third amended and restated certificate of incorporation, the board of directors is authorized to issue from time to time up to an aggregate of 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock and to fix or alter the designations, preferences, rights and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions of the shares of each series, including the dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights, rights and terms of redemption (including sinking fund provisions), redemption price or prices, liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any series. These additional shares may be used for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public offerings, to raise additional capital or to facilitate acquisitions. If the board of directors decides to issue shares of preferred stock to persons supportive of current management, this could render it more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of Visteon by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise. Authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock also could be used to dilute the stock ownership of persons seeking to obtain control of Visteon. To the extent required by 11 U.S.C. § 1123(a)(6), Visteon is prohibited from issuing shares of nonvoting equity securities (within the meaning of such statute). Certain Anti-Takeover Effects of our Certificate of Incorporation, our Bylaws and Delaware Law Provisions of Delaware Law. Visteon is a Delaware corporation subject to Section 203 of the DGCL. Section 203 provides that, subject to certain exceptions specified in the law, a Delaware corporation shall not engage in certain “business combinations” with any “interested stockholder” for a three-year period after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder unless: • prior to such time, the board of directors of the corporation approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder; • upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding certain shares; or • at or subsequent to that time, the business combination is approved by the board of directors of the corporation and authorized by the affirmative vote of holders of at least 662/3% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder. Generally, a “business combination” includes a merger, asset or stock sale or other transaction resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. Subject to certain exceptions, an “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with that person’s affiliates and associates, owns, or within the previous three years did own, 15% or more of the voting stock of the corporation. Under certain circumstances, Section 203 makes it more difficult for a person who would be an “interested stockholder” to effect various business combinations with a corporation for a three-year period. The provisions of Section 203 may encourage companies interested in acquiring Visteon to negotiate in advance with our board of directors because the stockholder approval requirement would be avoided if our board of directors approves either the business combination or the transaction that results in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder. These provisions also may make it more difficult to accomplish transactions that stockholders may otherwise deem to be in their best interests. Board of Directors. Our third amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws provide that the number of directors shall be fixed by the board of directors from time Exhibit 4.2 to time. The board of directors shall consist of not less than 3 nor more than 15 members. Under our amended and restated bylaws, at all meetings of stockholders for the election of directors at which a quorum is present, a majority of the votes cast are required to elect a director except in the event of a contested election (when the number of nominees for election as directors exceeds the number of directors to be elected at such meeting). In the event of a contested election, a plurality of the votes cast would be sufficient to elect a director. Under our third amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws, a vote of a majority of all then outstanding capital stock entitled to vote at an election of directors is required to remove a director with or without cause and fill the resulting vacancy, except that any director elected separately by the holders of any class or series of stock shall be subject to removal with or without cause at any time by such stockholders, who will fill the resulting vacancy. Vacancies resulting from newly created directorships by reason of an increase in the size of the board of directors shall be filled by a majority vote of the board of directors, provided a quorum is present. Further, vacancies resulting from reasons other than removal or an increase in the size of the board of directors shall be filled by a majority vote of the board of directors, even if less than a quorum. These provisions may deter a stockholder from removing incumbent directors and simultaneously gaining control of the board of directors by filling the vacancies created by this removal with its own nominees. Advance Notice Procedures. Our amended and restated bylaws establish an advance notice procedure for stockholder proposals to be brought before a meeting of stockholders, including proposed nominations of persons for election to the board of directors. Stockholders at a meeting will only be able to consider proposals or nominations specified in the notice of meeting or brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the board of directors or by a stockholder who was a stockholder of record on the record date for the meeting, who is entitled to vote at the meeting and who has given our corporate secretary timely written notice, in proper form, of the stockholder’s intention to bring that business before the meeting. Although our amended and restated bylaws will not give the board of directors the power to approve or disapprove stockholder nominations of candidates or proposals regarding other business to be conducted at a special or annual meeting, our amended and restated bylaws may have the effect of precluding the conduct of certain business at a meeting if the proper procedures are not followed or may discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect its own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of the company. Action by Written Consent; Special Meetings of Stockholders. Our third amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that stockholder action can be taken only at an annual or special meeting of stockholders and cannot be taken by written consent in lieu of a meeting. Our third amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws provide that, except as otherwise required by law, special meetings of the stockholders can only be called by our chairman of the board, our chief executive officer, pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of our board of directors or by our secretary following receipt of one or more demands to call a special meeting of the stockholders, in accordance with the provisions of our amended and restated bylaws, from stockholders who hold, in the aggregate, at least twenty percent of the voting power of all shares entitled generally to on the election of directors (without reference to any terms of any preferred stock). Authorized but Unissued Shares. Our authorized but unissued shares of common stock and preferred stock will be available for future issuance without stockholder approval, subject to the rules and regulations of any applicable stock exchange or similar rules. These additional shares may be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public offerings to raise additional capital, corporate acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued shares of common stock and preferred stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of a majority of our common stock by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise. Limitations on Directors’ and Officers’ Liability. Our third amended and restated certificate of incorporation contains a provision eliminating the personal liability of our directors to Visteon or any of its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty to the fullest extent permitted by Exhibit 4.2 applicable law. Our third amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws also contain provisions generally providing for indemnification and prepayment of expenses to our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. Amendment of Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws. Our third amended and restated certificate of incorporation expressly authorizes the board of directors to adopt, amend, alter or repeal most provisions of our amended and restated bylaws by a majority vote. The stockholders may also adopt, amend, alter or repeal our amended and restated bylaws. Stockholder approval is also required to amend, alter, change or repeal any provision of our third amended and restated certificate of incorporation or our amended and restated bylaws inconsistent with any provision in our third amended and restated certificate of incorporation or our amended and restated bylaws that requires a particular vote of stockholders in order to take the action specified in such provision. Transactions with Interested Directors or Officers. In recognition that we may engage in material business transactions with one or more of our directors or officers, an entity in which one or more of our directors or officers are its directors or officers or have a financial interest, our amended and restated bylaws provide that such a contract or transaction will not be void or voidable solely because a director or officer is interested, or solely because the director or officer is present at or participates in the meeting which authorizes the contract or transaction, or solely because such person’s votes are counted for such purpose if: • • • the material facts as to such person’s or persons’ relations or interest as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the board of directors or the committee, and the board of directors or committee in good faith authorizes the contract or transaction by the affirmative vote of a majority of disinterested directors, even though the number of disinterested directors may be less than a quorum; or the material facts as to such person’s or person’s relationship or interest as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the stockholders entitled to vote thereon, and the contract or transaction is specifically approved in good faith by vote of the stockholders; or the contract or transaction is fair as to us as of the time it is authorized, approved or ratified by the board of directors, a committee thereof or the stockholders. Transfer Agent and Registrar Computershare Limited is the transfer agent and registrar for our common stock. Listing of Our Common Stock Currently, our common stock is listed on the NASDAQ stock market under the trading symbol “VC”. EXHIBIT 10.8 VISTEON EXECUTIVE SEVERANCE PLAN (as amended and restated effective January 1, 2021) ARTICLE I. PURPOSE Section 1.01. Purpose Statement. Visteon Corporation (the “Company”) has established and maintains the Visteon Executive Severance Plan (the “Plan”) to provide severance benefits to eligible Executives of the Company and its United States subsidiaries and affiliates whose employment with the Company or a United States subsidiary or affiliate of the Company is involuntarily terminated under certain circumstances. The Plan is an expression of the Company’s present policy with respect to severance benefits for Executives who meet the eligibility requirements set forth herein; it is not a part of any contract of employment. The Plan is intended to comply with ERISA and all other relevant laws. The Plan was originally effective as of October 5, 2010 and was amended and restated effective as June 7, 2017, and again as set forth herein, effective as of January 1, 2021. This amended and restated version of the Plan supersedes and replaces any prior plans, summary plan descriptions, summaries, policies, publications, practices, memos or notices regarding the Plan and any other severance, termination, or separation benefits (whether oral or written, or formal or informal) for eligible Executives of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates who are subject to the terms of the Plan. Section 2.01. Definitions. ARTICLE II. DEFINITIONS The following words and phrases, when used in this document, shall have the following meanings, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise: (a) “Acknowledgement” means a document, in such form as the Plan Administrator may prescribe and that an Executive executes, that contains both (i) an acknowledgment by an Executive that the Executive’s receipt of benefits under Article IV hereof is contingent upon the Executive’s agreement to be bound by the provisions of Article IX hereof and (ii) the Executive’s agreement to be so bound. (b) “Base Salary” means Executive’s annual base rate of pay in effect at his or her Termination Date, excluding bonuses, one-time payments, incentives, and other remuneration and awards that are not regularly paid throughout the year.

For purposes of clauses (i) and (ii) of this definition, no act, or failure to act, on the Executive’s part shall be deemed “willful” unless done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive not in good faith and without reasonable belief that the Executive’s act, or failure to act, was in the best interest of the Company. (d) “Company” means Visteon Corporation, or any successor thereto. (e) “ERISA” means the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, and the rulings and regulations promulgated thereunder, all as amended and in effect from time to time. (f) “Executive” means an employee of the Company or a United States subsidiary or affiliate of the Company at or above Level 18, who directly reports to the CEO of the Company other than those Executives who may report to the CEO of the Company on a temporary basis for a period of less than one year. The Plan Administrator’s determination of the Executive’s reporting relationship shall be final and conclusive. (g) “Officer” means an Executive who is both: (i) at or above Level 19; and (ii) elected an officer of the Company by the Board of Directors of the Company. (h) “Plan Administrator” means the Organization and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company. (i) “Release” means a release and waiver of claims (including, if applicable, claims under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended) that is in such form as the Plan Administrator may prescribe, that is acceptable to the Company and that an Executive executes for the benefit of the Company and its respective subsidiaries and affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, predecessors, successors and assigns. The Release will include such terms as the Company deems appropriate, including, provisions under which the Executive releases any and all liability, including, without limitation, claims arising out of the employment relationship and the termination of that relationship, and agrees to comply with certain other conditions, which may include, without limitation, maintaining confidentiality of proprietary information, the return of all Company property, non-competition, non-solicitation, non- disparagement obligations and any other covenants as the Company, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate, and the Executive may be required to agree to such additional terms and conditions related to the termination of the applicable employment relationship that the Company, in its sole discretion, decides to require as a condition of receiving severance benefits hereunder. (j) “Termination Date” is the date on which an Executive’s employment with the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates terminates. Section 3.01. Award of Severance Pay. ARTICLE III. AWARD OF SEVERANCE BENEFITS Except as provided in Section 3.02 below, an Executive is eligible for a Basic Severance Benefit under Section 4.01, and may qualify for an Enhanced Severance Benefit under Section 4.02, if the Executive’s employment with the Company or a subsidiary or affiliate of the Company was involuntarily terminated by the Company or by a subsidiary or affiliate of the Company.

An Executive shall not be eligible for severance benefits under the Plan in any of the following situations: (a) The Executive voluntarily retires or resigns from employment or in the event of the Executive’s death; (b) The Executive’s position is eliminated and the Executive is offered another position which the Executive declines (unless the Plan Administrator has specifically authorized severance benefits in accordance with the discretion granted to the Plan Administrator under Section 3.01 above); 2 (c) The Executive is discharged from employment for Cause; (d) The Executive is terminated or separated for not returning, in a timely manner, from an approved leave of absence; (e) The Executive’s employment ends or is terminated because the Executive is physically or otherwise unable to perform the essential functions of his or her position, with or without any applicable reasonable accommodation; (f) The Executive’s employment terminates while receiving or seeking (or in connection with a condition or situation with respect to which the Executive has indicated an intention to or is otherwise likely to seek) payments or benefits under a program, policy, plan or a law that provides payments or benefits to an Executive unable to work because of illness, injury or disability; (g) The Executive is eligible to receive pay-in-lieu of notice, severance pay, termination pay or any other form of separation pay under any law; (h) The Executive is terminated in connection with the sale by the Company, or a subsidiary or affiliate of the Company, of all or part of a division, plant, facility, operation, product line or other unit, or the outsourcing or transfer of functions to a third party vendor, client, or other transferee, where the Executive is offered employment with the purchaser, vendor, client or other transferee with a starting date within 90 days of the Executive’s Termination Date; (i) The Executive’s employment is governed by an employment contract (in which case, the employment contract, and not this Plan, shall govern the severance benefits, if any, to be provided to the Executive); or (j) The Executive is eligible for benefits under any other severance plan, exit incentive plan, or reduction in force plan offered by the Company or a subsidiary or affiliate of the Company. Section 4.01. Basic Severance Benefit. ARTICLE IV. AMOUNT OF SEVERANCE BENEFIT The “Basic Severance Benefit” for any Executive who becomes so entitled shall be an amount equal to four weeks of Base Salary. Payment of the Basic Severance Benefit will be in a single, lump sum cash payment, after withholding of applicable income and payroll taxes and other authorized withholdings. Section 4.02. Enhanced Severance Benefit. (a) In any case in which the Plan Administrator has authorized the payment of severance benefits and the Executive provides a Release and an Acknowledgement, in each case in a form prescribed by the Plan Administrator and acceptable to the Company, then in lieu of the Basic Severance Benefit described in Section 4.01, the Executive shall receive an “Enhanced Severance Benefit” described in Sections 4.02(b) and (c) below. (b) As an Enhanced Severance Benefit: (i) Executives at Level 19 and above will be eligible to receive an amount equal to 150% of the sum of (i) one year of Base Salary, plus (ii) the Executive’s target annual incentive opportunity in effect on the Termination Date. (ii) Executives at Level 18 will be eligible to receive an amount equal to (i) nine months of Base Salary plus (ii) the Executive’s target annual incentive opportunity in effect on the Termination Date. 3 The Enhanced Severance Benefit described in this Section 4.02(b) will be paid in accordance with the terms of Article V and in a single lump sum cash payment, less withholding of applicable income and payroll taxes and other authorized withholdings. (c) In addition, the Executive will be eligible to receive, as an Enhanced Severance Benefit, an annual incentive for the fiscal year during which the Termination Date occurs, determined as if the Executive had remained employed for the entire year (and any additional period of time necessary to be eligible to receive the annual incentive for the year), based on actual Company performance during the entire fiscal year and without regard to any discretionary adjustments that have the effect of reducing the amount of the annual incentive (other than discretionary adjustments applicable to all senior executives who did not terminate employment), and assuming that any individual goals applicable to the Executive were satisfied at the “target” level, pro-rated based on the number of days in the Company’s fiscal year through (and including) the Termination Date. The pro-rated annual incentive shall be payable in a single lump sum at the same time that payments are made to other participants in the annual incentive plan for that fiscal year (upon the terms, and subject to the conditions, of the annual incentive plan but in no event later than two and one-half months after the fiscal year during which the Termination Date occurs). Section 4.03. Reduction of Benefits. To the extent permitted under Internal Revenue Code Section 409A, benefits under Section 4.01 or 4.02 will be reduced by the amount of any unpaid obligations that the Executive owes to the Company, a subsidiary or affiliate of the Company and any salary continuation during any notice period or other payments provided by the Company to the Executive pursuant to the Worker Adjustment Retraining and Notification Act or any national, state, local, provincial, municipal, or commonwealth equivalent. Severance pay will not be used or considered in the computation or accrual of benefits under any other plan. Section 5.01. Entitlement to Benefits. ARTICLE V. PAYMENT OF BENEFITS An Executive becomes entitled to severance benefits under Article IV on the date that the Executive has satisfied all of the requirements for receiving a severance benefit (including the Executive’s execution of a Release and an Acknowledgement within 60 days after the Termination Date and the expiration of any revocation period that is provided in accordance with applicable law or such policies as may from time to time be adopted by the Plan Administrator). All payments shall be subject to income tax withholding and other appropriate deductions. Section 5.02. Payment of Benefits. Cash benefits under the Plan are intended to be separate payments that constitute “short-term deferrals” and “separation pay” that are exempt from the requirements of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A. Accordingly, payment of the Basic Severance Benefit under Section 4.01 and the Enhanced Severance Benefit under Section 4.02, to the extent applicable to the Executive, shall be completed by the later of (i) the 15th day of the third month following the end of the first taxable year in which the Executive becomes entitled to benefits under the Plan, or (ii) the 15th day of the third month following the end of the Company’s first taxable year in which the Executive becomes entitled to benefits under the Plan. The medical, dental and career transition benefits to which the Executive may become entitled under Section 4.04 are also intended to be exempt from Internal Revenue Code Section 409A, and the Plan Administrator (or its delegate) shall administer the Plan consistent with Internal Revenue Code Section 409A and the requirements for exemption of such benefits. The Plan Administrator may adopt additional rules and restrictions with respect to such benefits if the Plan Administrator determines that such rules and restrictions are necessary or appropriate in order to qualify (or continue to qualify) for exemption from Internal Revenue Code Section 409A. To the extent that the Executive’s right to receive payments or benefits under this Plan constitutes a “deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A, then notwithstanding anything contained in this Article V to the contrary, payments may only be made under 4 this Plan upon a “separation from service” and upon an event and in a manner permitted by Internal Revenue Code Section 409A, to the extent applicable. In particular, any payment that, but for this sentence, would be payable to a “specified employee” before the date that is the first day of the seventh month following the month in which occurs the Executive’s “separation from service” within the meaning of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A, the payment shall be made on that date and not on the earlier date otherwise provided for in this Plan. Further, all reimbursements and in-kind benefits provided under the Plan shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A and in no event may the Executive designate the year of payment for any amounts payable under the Plan. Provided further that in no event shall the timing of the Executive’s execution of the Release or an Acknowledgment, directly or indirectly, result in the Executive designating the calendar year of payment, and if a payment that is subject to execution of the Release or Acknowledgment could be made in more than one taxable year, payment shall be made in the later taxable year. The Company makes no representation or warranty and shall have no liability to any Executive or any other person for any taxes or penalties imposed pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 409A. Section 6.01. Other Continued Benefits ARTICLE VI. OTHER CONTINUED BENEFITS (a) An Executive’s outstanding awards under the Visteon Corporation 2010 Incentive Plan, Visteon Corporation 2020 Incentive Plan and any successor plan thereto, shall be governed by the terms and conditions of each award or grant, and not by the terms of this Plan. (b) An Executive who is eligible to receive retirement benefits under a retirement plan maintained by the Company or a subsidiary may apply for and commence retirement benefits in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable retirement plan. Retirement benefits are not governed by the terms of this Plan. 5 Section 6.02. Other Continued Benefits for Executives who are not Officers (a) An Executive who is not an Officer of the Company as defined in this Plan and who is eligible to receive Basic Severance Benefits or Enhanced Severance Benefits and who, on the Executive’s Termination Date, was covered under the Company’s employer sponsored group medical program is eligible to continue such group medical coverage in accordance with the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”). If the Executive elects to continue medical coverage in accordance with COBRA and the Executive is entitled to an Enhanced Severance Benefit under Section 4.02, the Company will reimburse the Executive for the entire medical COBRA premium contribution for 9 months, which reimbursements will be included in the Executive’s income for tax purposes to the extent required by applicable law. The Company may withhold from any such reimbursement an amount sufficient to cover the amount of required taxes and withholding. After such period, the Executive may continue coverage for the remaining unused portion of the COBRA continuation period at his or her sole expense in accordance with the requirements of COBRA. Reimbursement by the Company of COBRA premium contributions will cease after 9 months or when the Executive becomes covered under another plan, whichever is earlier. Company reimbursements of COBRA premium contributions otherwise receivable by the Executive pursuant to this Section 6.02 (a) shall be reduced to the extent benefits of the same type are received by or made available to the Executive by another employer during the 9 month period following the Executive’s Termination Date (and any such benefits received by or made available to the Executive shall be reported to the Company by the Executive). Termination of coverage or distribution of benefits will be in accordance with the terms of the applicable benefit plan, subject to any rights the Executive (and any qualified beneficiaries) have to elect continuation coverage under COBRA. (b) The Company may, in its sole discretion, provide professional career transition services of the type and for the duration determined by the Plan Administrator. Section 6.03. Other Benefits for Officers (a) An Officer who is eligible to receive Basic Severance Benefits or Enhanced Severance Benefits and who, on the Officer’s Termination Date was covered under the Company’s employer sponsored group medical and/or dental programs is eligible to continue such group medical and/or dental coverage in accordance with COBRA. If the Officer elects to continue medical and dental coverage in accordance with COBRA and the Officer is entitled to an Enhanced Severance Benefit under Section 4.02, the Company will reimburse the Officer for the entire COBRA premium contribution for 18 months, which reimbursements will be included in the Officer’s income for tax purposes to the extent required by applicable law. The Company may withhold from any such reimbursement an amount sufficient to cover the amount of required taxes and withholding. Reimbursement by the Company of COBRA premium contributions will cease after 18 months or when the Officer becomes covered under another plan, whichever is earlier. Company reimbursements of COBRA premium contributions otherwise receivable by the Officer pursuant to this Section 6.03 (a) shall be reduced to the extent benefits of the same type are received by or made available to the Officer by another employer during the 18 month period following the Officer’s Termination Date (and any such benefits received by or made available to the Officer shall be reported to the Company by the Officer). Termination of coverage or distribution of benefits will be in accordance with the terms of the applicable benefit plan, subject to any rights the Officer (and any qualified beneficiaries) have to elect continuation coverage under COBRA. (b) The Company will provide professional career transition services to assist an Officer entitled to an Enhanced Severance Benefit in the preparation for and execution of their job search, which services may include career counseling, assessment of interests and skills, development of job search tools such as resumes and cover letters, preparation of a job discovery strategy, and interview skills coaching. Unless otherwise determined by the Plan Administrator in its sole discretion, the amount expended by the Company with respect to career transition services pursuant to this Section 6.03(b) with respect to any one Officer will not exceed $50,000. Subject to that dollar limitation, the Company will pay for these services for twelve months or until the Officer becomes employed, whichever is earlier. ARTICLE VII. CLAIMS PROCEDURE 6 Section 7.01. Claims Procedure. (a) Claim for Benefits. Any Executive who believes he or she is entitled to benefits under the Plan in an amount greater than the amount received may file, or have his or her duly authorized representative file, a claim with the Plan Administrator (or, if applicable, the Plan Administrator’s delegate). Any such claim shall be filed in writing stating the nature of the claim, and the facts supporting the claim, the amount claimed and the name and address of the claimant. The Plan Administrator shall consider the claim and answer in writing stating whether the claim is granted or denied. The written decision shall be within 90 days of receipt of the claim by the Plan Administrator (or 180 days if additional time is needed and the claimant is notified of the extension, the reason therefor and the expected date of determination prior to commencement of the extension). If the claim is denied in whole or in part, the Executive shall be furnished with a written notice of such denial containing (i) the specific reasons for the denial, (ii) a specific reference to the Plan provisions on which the denial is based, (iii) an explanation of the Plan’s appeal procedures set forth in subsection (b) below, (iv) a description of any additional material or information which is necessary for the claimant to submit or perfect an appeal of his or her claim and (v) an explanation of the Executive’s right to bring suit under ERISA following an adverse determination upon appeal. (b) Appeal. If an Executive wishes to appeal the denial of his or her claim, the Executive or his or her duly authorized representative shall file a written notice of appeal to the Plan Administrator (or, if applicable, the Plan Administrator’s delegate) within 90 days of receiving notice of the claim denial. In order that the Plan Administrator may expeditiously decide such appeal, the written notice of appeal should contain (i) a statement of the ground(s) for the appeal, (ii) a specific reference to the Plan provisions on which the appeal is based, (iii) a statement of the arguments and authority (if any) supporting each ground for appeal, and (iv) any other pertinent documents or comments which the appellant desires to submit in support of the appeal. The Plan Administrator shall decide the appellant’s appeal within 60 days of its receipt of the appeal (or 120 days if additional time is needed and the claimant is notified of the extension, the reason therefore and the expected date of determination prior to commencement of the extension). The Plan Administrator’s written decision shall contain the reasons for the decision and reference to the Plan provisions on which the decision is based. If the claim is denied in whole or in part, such written decision shall also include notification of the Executive’s right to bring suit for benefits under Section 502(a) of ERISA and the claimant’s right to obtain, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to and copies of all documents, records or other information relevant to the claim for benefits. (c) Claims Procedures Mandatory. The internal claims procedures set forth in this Article VII are mandatory. If the Executive fails to follow these claims procedures, or to timely file a request for appeal in accordance with this Article VII, the denial of the claim shall become final and binding on all persons for all purposes. (d) Requirement to Exhaust Claims Procedure. No person may bring an action for any alleged wrongful denial of Plan benefits in a court of law unless the claims procedures set forth above are exhausted and a final determination is made by the Plan Administrator (or, if applicable, the Plan Administrator's delegate). If the Executive or other interested person challenges a decision of the Plan Administrator, a review by the court of law shall be limited to the facts, evidence and issues presented to the Plan Administrator during the claims procedure set forth above. Issues not raised with the Plan Administrator shall be deemed waived. (e) Claims Deadline. After the Executive has exhausted the Plan’s claims and appeals procedure (but not before), the Executive may file a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, which court shall have exclusive jurisdiction over such claims. An Executive must file a claim under the Plan’s claims and appeals procedure or any lawsuit by the “Claims Deadline,” which is 12 months after whichever of the following events happened first: (i) the Executive’s first benefit payment was made or should have been made; (ii) the Plan Administrator first denied the Executive’s claim; or (iii) the Executive first knew or should have known the important facts relating to his or her claim. An Executive is not permitted to bring a claim under the Plan’s claims and appeals procedure or file a lawsuit in court after the Claims Deadline. However, if an Executive starts the Plan’s claims and appeals procedure before the Claims Deadline and the Claims Deadline passes before the 7 claims and appeals procedure is completed, the Claims Deadline shall be extended and the Executive may still file a lawsuit during the three- month period after the Plan Administrator sends the final notice denying the Executive’s claim. Section 7.02. Plan Administration; Standard of Review. The Plan Administrator is the administrator of the Plan and the named fiduciary of the Plan for purposes of ERISA and is vested with the discretionary authority and control to determine eligibility for coverage and benefits (including the discretion to make factual findings and to resolve disputed issues of fact) and to construe, interpret, and administer the terms of the Plan, to correct deficiencies therein, and to apply omissions; any such determination or construction shall be final and binding on all parties unless arbitrary or capricious. To the extent that the Plan Administrator has appointed a delegate or delegates to administer the claims procedure, any such determination or construction of the delegate shall be final and binding on all parties to the same extent as if made by the Plan Administrator. Section 7.03. Delegation to the Chief Human Resource Officer. Subject to such limits as the Plan Administrator may from time to time prescribe, the Company’s Chief Human Resources Officer may exercise any of the authority and discretion granted to the Plan Administrator hereunder, provided that the Chief Human Resource Officer shall not exercise any authority and responsibility with respect to non-ministerial matters affecting the Chief Human Resource Officer. Section 8.01. Right to Amend and Terminate the Plan. ARTICLE VIII. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF THE PLAN Except as provided below, the Company reserves the right, by action of the Plan Administrator, to amend, modify or terminate the Plan in whole or in part, at any time, and for any reason, in its sole discretion, without prior notice to Executives. No amendment, modification or termination of the Plan shall have the effect of reducing the eligibility for severance benefits (or the amount thereof) for any Executive who ceases to be employed by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company before the first anniversary of the date on which the Plan Administrator takes formal action to effect that amendment, modification or termination. 8 ARTICLE IX. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS Section 9.01. Application of Article IX.

Assignment and Alienation; Participant Rights Unsecured. The right of an Executive to receive severance benefits hereunder shall be an unsecured claim, and the Executive shall not have any rights in or against any specific assets of the Company. The Plan has no trustee and is administered by the Plan Administrator.

Section 10.05. Severability of Provisions. If any provision of this Plan shall be held invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions hereof, and this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such provisions had not been included.

The legal rights and obligations of any person having an interest in the Plan are determined solely by the provisions of the Plan and the Release and Acknowledgment. Section 10.08. Confidentiality. Nothing in the Plan restricts or prohibits an Executive from initiating communications directly with, responding to any inquiries from, providing testimony before, providing confidential information to, reporting possible violations of law or regulation to, or from filing a claim or assisting with an investigation directly with, a self-regulatory authority or a government agency or entity, including the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the Department of Labor, the National Labor Relations Board, the Department of Justice, the Securities and Exchange Commission, Congress, and any agency Inspector General (collectively, the “Regulators”), or from making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of state or federal law or regulation. An Executive does not need the prior authorization of the Company to engage in such communications with the Regulators, 11 respond to such inquiries from the Regulators, provide confidential information or documents to the Regulators, or make any such reports or disclosures to the Regulators. An Executive is not required to notify the Company that the Executive has engaged in such communications with the Regulators. Section 10.09. Trade Secrets. Federal law provides certain protections to individuals who disclose a trade secret to their attorney, a court, or a government official in certain, confidential circumstances. Specifically, federal law provides that an individual shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret under either of the following conditions: (a) where the disclosure is made (i) in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (b) where the disclosure is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. See 18 U.S.C. § 1833(b)(1)). Federal law also provides that an individual who files a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of law may disclose the trade secret to the attorney of the individual and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual (x) files any document containing the trade secret under seal; and (y) does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order. See 18 U.S.C. § 1833(b)(2). Nothing in the Plan is intended in any way to limit such statutory rights. Section 10.10. Controlling Law. This Plan shall be construed and enforced according to the laws of the State of Michigan, to the extent not preempted by Federal law, without giving effect to any Michigan choice of law provisions. The undersigned, on behalf of the Company, has executed this Plan effective January 1, 2021. VISTEON CORPORATION _________________________________ Kristin Trecker Chief Human Resources Officer 12 EXHIBIT 10.3.1 VISTEON CORPORATION 2020 INCENTIVE PLAN PERFORMANCE STOCK UNIT GRANT AGREEMENT Visteon Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), subject to the terms of the Visteon Corporation 2020 Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and this performance stock unit agreement (this “Agreement”), hereby grants to Participant Name, Global ID Employee ID, (the “Participant”), performance stock units in the form of performance-based restricted stock units (“Performance Stock Units”) pursuant to Section 6 of the Plan, as further described herein. For purposes of this Agreement, “Employer” means the entity (the Company or a Subsidiary) that employs the Participant. All capitalized words not defined in this Agreement have the meanings assigned to them in the Plan. 1. Grant of Performance Stock Units, Target Award. (a) The Company hereby grants to the Participant Number of Awards Granted Performance Stock Units with a grant value of Grant Custom 1 per unit, effective as of Grant Date (the “Grant Date”) under Section 6 of the Plan, and subject to the restrictions set forth in this Agreement. The Performance Stock Units represent a target number of shares of the Company’s common stock (“Stock”) to be paid (the “Target Award”) if the Company’s “Total Shareholder Return” (as defined below, “TSR”) results during the “Performance Period” (as th defined below) relative to returns of similar companies is at the 55 percentile. The actual number of shares of Stock to be transferred to the Participant, if any (the “Final Award”), may be earned up to 200% of the Target Award opportunity, or as low as zero, based on the Company’s TSR performance percentile within the “TSR Peer Group” (as defined below) and upon satisfaction of the conditions to vesting set forth below in this Agreement. In the event of certain corporate transactions, the number of Performance Stock Units covered by this Agreement may be adjusted by the Committee as further described in Section 3 of the Plan. Electronic acceptance of this Agreement through the third party designee must be made within 90 days of the Grant Date (by Accept By Date); otherwise the award in its entirety will be forfeited. (b) For purposes of this Agreement, the “Performance Period” means January 1, 2021 through December 31, 2023. (c) For purposes of this Agreement, “Total Shareholder Return” (or “TSR”) is calculated by dividing the “Closing Average Share Value” (as defined below) by the “Opening Average Share Value” (as defined below). (i) The term “Closing Average Share Value” means the average value of the common stock for the trading days during the 20 trading days ending on the last trading day of the Performance Period, which shall be calculated as follows: (A) determine the closing price of the common stock on each trading date during the 20-day period, (B) multiply each closing price as of that trading date by the applicable share number described below, and (C) average the amounts so determined for the 20-day period. The Closing Average Share Value shall take into account any dividends on the common stock for which the ex-dividend date occurred during the Performance Period, as if the dividend amount had been reinvested in common stock at the closing price on the ex-dividend date. The share number in clause (B) above, for a given trading day, is the sum of one share plus the cumulative number of shares deemed purchased with such dividends. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Closing Average Share Value is calculated as of a Change in Control, then the Closing Average Share Value shall be based on the 20-day period ending immediately prior to the Change in Control. (ii) The term “Opening Average Share Value” means the average value of the common stock for the trading days during the 20 trading days ending on the last trading day prior to the beginning of the Performance Period, which shall be calculated as follows: (A) determine the closing price of the common stock on each trading date during the 20-day period, (B) multiply each closing price as of that trading date by the applicable share number described below, and (C) average the amounts so determined for the 20-day period. The Opening Average Share Value shall take into account any dividends on the common stock for which the ex- dividend date occurred during the 20-day period, as if the dividend amount had been reinvested in common Rev. 03/2021 stock at the closing price on the ex-dividend date. The share number in clause (B) above, for a given trading day, is the sum of one share plus the cumulative number of shares deemed purchased with such dividends. (d) For purposes of this Agreement, the “TSR Peer Group” includes the following 15 companies (and Visteon Corporation): Adient PLC Continental Lear Corporation American Axle &Mfg Holdings Cooper-Standard Holdings Magna International Aptiv PLC Dana Incorporated Meritor Inc. Autoliv, Inc. Denso Corporation Tenneco Inc. BorgWarner Inc. Faurecia S.A. Valeo SA (e) TSR Peer Group Adjustments. (i) If a TSR Peer Group company becomes bankrupt, the bankrupt company will remain in the TSR Peer Group positioned at one level below the lowest performing non-bankrupt TSR Peer Group company. In the case of multiple bankruptcies, the bankrupt companies will be positioned below the non-bankrupt companies in reverse chronological order by bankruptcy date. (ii) If a TSR Peer Group company is acquired by another company, the acquired TSR Peer Group company will be removed from the TSR Peer Group. (iii) If a TSR Peer Group company sells, spins-off, or disposes of a portion of its business, the selling TSR Peer Group company will remain in the TSR Peer Group for the Performance Period unless such disposition(s) results in the disposition of more than 50% of the company’s total assets during the Performance Period in which case it will be removed. (iv) If a TSR Peer Group company acquires another company, the acquiring TSR Peer Group company will remain in the TSR Peer Group for the Performance Period. (v) If a TSR Peer Group company is delisted on all major stock exchanges, such delisted TSR Peer Group company will be removed from the TSR Peer Group. (vi) If the Company’s and/or any TSR Peer Group company’s stock splits, such company’s performance will be adjusted for the stock split so as not to give an advantage or disadvantage to such company by comparison to the other companies. 2. TSR Achievement, Percentage Earned, Vesting, Effect of Change in Control. (a) The Participant’s rights to the Target Award will be based on the Participant’s continued employment and the extent to which TSR is achieved for the Performance Period. Awards can be “Earned” (meaning available for potential vesting) up to 200% of the Target Award opportunity based on the Company’s TSR performance percentile within the TSR Peer Group as follows (award payouts for performance between the percentiles specified below is determined based on straight-line interpolation): (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) 0% of the target award if at less than 25 percentile, th 35% of the target award if at the 25 percentile, th 100% of the target award if at the 55 percentile, th 200% of the target award if at the 80 percentile or higher. th However, if the Company’s TSR is negative for the Performance Period, the Target Award Earned cannot be greater than 100%, regardless of the ranking above. 2 (b) If the Participant remains in the employ of the Employer through January 31, 2024, the percentage of the Target Award Earned for the Performance Period will vest on that date. (c) If a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan) occurs before December 31, 2023, (x) the Performance Period will be deemed to have been terminated immediately before the Change in Control, and (y) the Performance Stock Units Earned as of the date of the Change in Control will be converted into time vesting Restricted Stock Units that will vest on January 31, 2024 if the Participant remains in the employ of the Company through that date (the “Converted Restricted Stock Units”) and, in addition, the following rules will apply: (i) Unless forfeited earlier pursuant to Paragraph 3, if the Converted Restricted Stock Units are not assumed, converted or replaced by the acquirer or other continuing entity, the Converted Restricted Stock Units will become fully vested immediately before the Change in Control (and any remainder of the Target Award will be forfeited). (ii) If (A) the Converted Restricted Stock Units are assumed, converted or replaced by the acquirer or other continuing entity and (B) the Participant’s employment is terminated within 24 months following the Change in Control by the Employer without Cause (other than by reason of death or disability) or as otherwise set forth in any change in control agreement, the Converted Restricted Stock Units will become fully vested immediately upon the termination of the Participant’s employment (and any remainder of the Target Award will be forfeited). (iii) If (A) the Converted Restricted Stock Units are assumed, converted or replaced by the acquirer or other continuing entity and (B) the Participant’s employment continues beyond the date that is 24 months after the Change in Control, the Converted Restricted Stock Units will vest, if at all, in accordance with Paragraph 2(b), subject to Paragraph 3. 3. Termination of Employment. (a) Except as set forth in Paragraph 2(c)(ii) or in the remaining provisions of this Paragraph 3 or as otherwise determined by the Committee, the Participant’s rights to receive any portion of the Target Award will be cancelled immediately and without notice to the Participant, and no Final Award will be made, if the Participant terminates employment with the Employer before January 31, 2024. A transfer or assignment of employment to a company that is owned at least 50% directly or indirectly by the Company shall not be deemed a termination of employment solely for purposes of Performance Stock Units covered by this Agreement. (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph 3(a), if the Participant is placed on an approved leave of absence, with or without pay, the Participant will continue to be eligible to receive the Final Award as if the Participant was actively employed during any period of the leave. (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph 3(a), if the Participant’s employment with the Employer is terminated by reason of disability (for U.S. employees, as defined in the Company’s long-term disability plan and for employees outside of the U.S. as determined by the Employer’s long-term disability policy or by the Committee or its delegate in its sole discretion), death, “retirement” (as defined below) or involuntary termination by the Employer without “Cause” (as defined below), and either (x) the Participant had remained in the employ of the Employer for at least 180 days following the Grant Date before the termination of the Participant’s employment with the Employer, or (y) the Change in Control has occurred before the termination of employment, the Participant will be entitled to a “Pro Rata Part” of the “Full Period Award” (as those terms are defined below) for those units that do not vest upon that termination pursuant to Paragraph 2(c)(ii). For these purposes: (i) the “Full Period Award” means that percentage of the Target Award for the Performance Period that would have been Earned as of December 31, 2023 and vested as of January 31, 2024 if the Participant had remained in the employ of the Company through January 31, 2024; and 3 (ii) “Pro Rata Part” means a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days between the Grant Date and the date of the termination of the Participant’s employment and the denominator of which is the number of days from the Grant Date to January 31, 2024. (d) For purposes of this Agreement, “retirement” shall mean the Participant’s voluntary termination of employment either (1) after attaining age 55 and completion of 10 years of service, or (2) after completion of at least 30 years of service, regardless of age. (e) For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Cause” shall mean (i) the willful and continued failure by the Participant to substantially perform the Participant’s duties with the Employer (other than any such failure resulting from the Participant’s incapacity due to physical or mental illness) after a written demand for substantial performance is delivered to the Participant by (A) if the Participant is an executive officer of the Company, the Board of Directors of the Company, or (B) if the Participant is not an executive officer of the Company, the head of the Company’s global human resources department, which demand specifically identifies the manner in which the Employer believes that the Participant has not substantially performed the Participant’s duties, or (ii) the willful engaging by the Participant in conduct which is demonstrably and materially injurious to the Company, monetarily or otherwise. (f) For purposes of the Performance Stock Units, the Participant’s employment is considered terminated as of the earlier of (a) the date the Participant’s employment with the Employer is terminated; (b) subject to Paragraph 3(b), the date on which the Participant ceases to provide active service to the Employer; or (c) the date on which the Participant receives a notice of termination of employment (in all cases, regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Participant is employed or rendering services or the terms of the Participant’s employment or service contract, if any). The Participant’s rights to participate in the Plan will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., service would not include any contractual notice or any period of “garden leave” or period of pay in lieu of such notice required under any employment law in the country where the Participant works or resides (including, but not limited to, statutory law, regulatory law and/or common law)). The Committee or its delegate shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Participant is no longer actively providing services for purposes of the Performance Stock Units. 4. Payment of Final Award. (a) The Committee will determine the amount of the Final Award with respect to the Performance Period, and the Participant will receive shares of Stock in settlement of the Final Award, (i) on a date to be selected by the Company between January 31 and March 15, 2024 (if the Final Award vests on January 31, 2024) or (ii) in any other case in which the Participant terminates employment and is entitled to accelerated vesting under Paragraph 2(c), within ten days thereafter, except to the extent that Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) requires that payment be postponed six months and one day after the date of the Participant’s “separation from service” (the “Settlement Date”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, in its sole discretion and to the extent permitted under Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-3(j) (4)(ix)(B), terminate this Agreement and pay the Participant’s Final Award on a Settlement Date upon the occurrence of, or within 30 days before, upon or within twelve months after any Change in Control that constitutes a “change in the ownership,” a “change in the effective control” or a “change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets” of the Company within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. (b) The number of shares of Stock delivered to the Participant will equal the number of shares included in the Final Award, less applicable withholding and brokerage fees associated with the sale of any shares of Stock to pay applicable withholding. Any shares of Stock will be issued in book-entry form, registered in the Participant’s name or in the name of the Participant’s legal representatives, beneficiaries or heirs, as the case may be. The Company will not deliver any fractional share of Stock and the Committee shall determine, in its discretion, whether cash equal to the Fair Market Value of such fractional share shall be given in lieu of fractional shares or whether some other more administratively feasible mechanism will be utilized. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in certain jurisdictions as stated in the Addendum to this grant agreement, the Committee may direct that in lieu of settlement through delivery of shares of Stock, the Participant’s Final Award will be settled by a single lump sum cash 4 payment equal to the number of shares of Stock that would otherwise be issued in settlement of the Final Award multiplied by the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock, less applicable withholding taxes. All Performance Stock Units that have become vested and are settled will be cancelled. (c) The Company may retain the services of a third-party administrator to perform administrative services in connection with the Plan. To the extent the Company has retained such an administrator, any reference to the Company will be deemed to refer to any such third- party administrator retained by the Company, and the Company may require the Participant to exercise the Participant’s rights under this Agreement only through such third-party administrator. 5. Dividend Equivalents. On each record date during the Grant Date through the Settlement Date, the Participant shall receive, with respect to each Performance Stock Unit, an additional number of Performance Stock Units equal to the number that such Participant would have received if the Participant had been the holder of record of one share of Stock and had reinvested any cash dividend paid on such share of Stock into Performance Stock Units (at the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the later of (i) the date the dividend is paid and (ii) the ex-dividend date) subject to the same terms and conditions as the Performance Stock Units granted herein. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall dividend equivalents with respect to a Performance Stock Unit be paid to the Participant unless and until the underlying Performance Stock Unit vests, and if such Units are forfeited, the Participant shall have no right to such dividend equivalents. 6. (a) Responsibility for Taxes; Withholding. Regardless of any action the Company or the Employer takes with respect to any or all income tax (including U.S. federal, state and local taxes and/or non-U.S. taxes), social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax- Related Items”), the Participant acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by the Participant is and remains the Participant’s sole responsibility. Furthermore, the Company and the Employer (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Performance Stock Units, including the grant of the Performance Stock Units, the vesting of the Performance Stock Units, the subsequent sale of any shares of Stock acquired pursuant to this Agreement and the receipt of any dividend equivalents or dividends; and (ii) do not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Performance Stock Units to reduce or eliminate the Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items. Further, if the Participant becomes subject to taxation in more than one country between the date the Performance Stock Units are granted and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, the Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one country. (b) The Company and/or the Employer may satisfy its obligation to withhold Tax-Related Items associated with the Performance Stock Units by withholding a number of Performance Stock Units or shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value, as determined by the Committee, equal to the amount required to be withheld. The Participant shall be deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Stock subject to the Performance Stock Units, notwithstanding that a number of the shares of Stock are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of the Performance Stock Units. The Committee shall determine, in its discretion, whether cash shall be given in lieu of any fractional Performance Stock Unit remaining after the withholding requirements are satisfied equal to the Fair Market Value of such fractional share or whether some other more administratively feasible mechanism will be utilized. (c) Dividend equivalents paid on Performance Stock Units are subject to applicable withholding of Tax-Related Items as described in Paragraph 6(b). 5 (d) This Performance Stock Unit is intended to be excepted from coverage under, or compliant with, the provisions of Section 409A of the Code, and the regulations and other guidance promulgated thereunder (“409A”). Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provisions of this Agreement or the Plan to the contrary, if the Performance Stock Unit is subject to the provisions of 409A (and not exempted therefrom), the provisions of this Agreement and the Plan shall be administered, interpreted and construed in a manner necessary to comply with 409A (or disregarded to the extent such provision cannot be so administered, interpreted or construed). If any payment or benefits hereunder may be deemed to constitute nonconforming deferred compensation subject to taxation under the provisions of 409A, the Participant agrees that the Company may, without the consent of the Participant, modify this Agreement to the extent and in the manner the Company deems necessary or advisable in order either to preclude any such payment or benefit from being deemed “deferred compensation” within the meaning of 409A or to provide such payments or benefits in a manner that complies with the provisions of 409A such that they will not be subject to the imposition of taxes and/or interest thereunder. If, at the time of the Participant’s separation from service (within the meaning of 409A), (i) the Participant shall be a specified employee (within the meaning of 409A and using the identification methodology selected by the Company from time to time) and (ii) the Company shall make a good faith determination that an amount payable hereunder constitutes deferred compensation (within the meaning of 409A) the settlement of which is required to be delayed pursuant to the six-month delay rule set forth in 409A in order to avoid taxes or penalties under 409A, then the Company shall not settle such amount on the otherwise scheduled settlement date, but shall instead settle it, without interest, on the first business day of the month after such six-month period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company makes no representation and/or warranties with respect to compliance with 409A, and the Participants recognizes and acknowledges that 409A could potentially impose upon the Participant certain taxes and/or interest charges for which the Participant is and shall remain solely responsible. 7. Conditions on Award. (a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Committee may cancel an award of Performance Stock Units, and may refuse to settle the Final Award, if before a Change in Control and during the period from the date of the Participant's termination of employment from the Employer to the date of settlement of the Final Award, the Committee determines that the Participant has either (i) refused to be available, upon request, at reasonable times and upon a reasonable basis, to consult with, supply information to and otherwise cooperate with the Company or its Subsidiaries with respect to any matter that was handled by the Participant or under the Participant's supervision while the Participant was in the employ of the Employer or (ii) engaged in any activity in violation of any non-competition and/or non-solicitation covenants. (b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Performance Stock Unit granted hereunder will be subject to mandatory repayment by the Participant to the Company to the extent the Participant is, or in the future becomes, subject to (i) any Company claw-back or recoupment policy that is adopted to comply with the requirements of any applicable laws, rules or regulations, or otherwise, or (ii) any applicable laws which impose mandatory recoupment, under circumstances set forth in such applicable laws, including as required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, or other applicable law, regulation or stock exchange listing requirement, as may be in effect from time to time, and which may operate to create additional rights for the Company with respect to the Performance Stock Unit and recovery of amounts relating thereto. By accepting this Performance Stock Unit, the Participant agrees and acknowledges that the Participant is obligated to cooperate with, and provide any and all assistance necessary to, the Company to recover or recoup this Performance Stock Unit or amounts paid under this Performance Stock Unit subject to claw-back pursuant to such law, government regulation, stock exchange listing requirement or Company policy. Such cooperation and assistance shall include, but is not limited to, executing, completing and submitting any documentation necessary to recover or recoup this Performance Stock Unit or amounts paid hereunder from the Participant’s accounts, or pending or future compensation awards that may be made to the Participant. 6 8. Non-transferability. The Participant has no right to sell, assign, transfer, pledge, or otherwise alienate the Performance Stock Units, and any attempted sale, assignment, transfer, pledge or other conveyance will be null and void. 9. Securities Law Restrictions. (a) If the Participant is resident outside of the United States, the grant of Performance Stock Units is not intended to be a public offering of securities in the Participant’s country. The Company has not submitted any registration statement, prospectus or other filings with the local securities authorities (unless otherwise required under local law), and this grant of Performance Stock Units is not subject to the supervision of the local securities authorities. (b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, may delay transferring shares of Stock to the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary in settlement of the Final Award or may impose restrictions or conditions on the Participant’s (or any beneficiary’s) ability to directly or indirectly sell, hypothecate, pledge, loan, or otherwise encumber, transfer or dispose of the shares of Stock, if the Committee determines that such action is necessary or desirable for compliance with any applicable state, federal or non-U.S. law, the requirements of any stock exchange on which the Stock is then traded, or is requested by the Company or the underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Company’s securities pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act of 1933. 10. Limited Interest. (a) The grant of the Performance Stock Units will not be construed as giving the Participant any interest other than as provided in this Agreement. The Participant’s Performance Stock Units constitutes an unsecured promise by the Company to pay the Participant one share of Stock on the settlement of vested and earned Performance Stock Units. As the holder of Performance Stock Units, the Participant has only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of the Company. The Company will credit the Performance Stock Units to a book-keeping account in the name of the Participant, but no assets of the Company will be held or set aside as security for the obligations of the Company hereunder. The Participant will have no voting rights or any other rights as a shareholder as a result of the grant or vesting of the Performance Stock Units unless and until shares of Stock are issued in settlement of the Final Award. (b) The grant of the Performance Stock Units will not affect in any way the right or power of the Company to make or authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations, or other changes in the Company’s capital structure or its business, or any merger, consolidation or business combination of the Company, or any issuance or modification of any term, condition, or covenant of any bond, debenture, debt, preferred stock or other instrument ahead of or affecting the stock or the rights of the holders thereof, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business or any other Company act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise. 11. Nature of Grant. In accepting the Performance Stock Units, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that: (a) the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time; (b) the grant of Performance Stock Units is a one-time benefit and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Performance Stock Units, benefits in lieu of 7 Performance Stock Units, or other benefits in the future, even if Performance Stock Units have been granted repeatedly in the past; (c) all decisions with respect to future grants of Performance Stock Units, if any, and their terms and conditions, will be made by the Company, in its sole discretion; (d) nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to create or enlarge any other contractual obligation between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and the Participant; (e) (f) the Participant is voluntarily participating in the Plan; the grant of the Performance Stock Units will not confer on the Participant any right to continue as an employee or continue in service of the Employer, nor interfere in any way with the right of the Employer to terminate the Participant's employment at any time; (g) the grant of Performance Stock Units will not be interpreted to form an employment or service contract or relationship with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (h) the Performance Stock Units are extraordinary items that do not constitute compensation of any kind for services of any kind rendered to the Company or any Subsidiary, and are outside the scope of the Participant’s employment contract, if any; (i) the Performance Stock Units are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation; (j) the Performance Stock Units are not part of the Participant’s normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end-of-services payments, holiday pay, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits, or similar payments and in no event should they be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to past services for the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates; (k) the future value of the shares of Stock underlying the Performance Stock Units is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty; (l) in consideration of the Performance Stock Unit, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from the Performance Stock Unit resulting from termination of the Participant’s employment (for any reason whatsoever) and the Participant irrevocably releases the Company and any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates from any such claim that may arise; if such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, then by signing or electronically accepting this Agreement, the Participant shall be deemed to have waived the Participant’s entitlement to pursue such claim; (m) unless otherwise provided in the Plan or by the Company in its discretion, the Performance Stock Units and the benefits evidenced by this Agreement do not create any entitlement to have the Performance Stock Units or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company nor be exchanged, cashed out or substituted for, in connection with any corporate transaction affecting the shares of Stock; (n) unless otherwise agreed with the Company, the Performance Stock Units and the shares of Stock subject to the Performance Stock Units, and the income and value of same, are not granted as 8 consideration for, or in connection with, the service the Participant may provide as a director of a Subsidiary; and (o) neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates shall be liable for any change in the value of the Performance Stock Units, the amount realized upon settlement of the Final Award or the amount realized upon a subsequent sale of any shares of Stock acquired upon settlement of the Final Award, resulting from any fluctuation of the United States Dollar/local currency foreign exchange rate. 12. Data Privacy. The Company and the Employer hold and control certain personal information about the Participant, including, but not limited to, the Participant’s name, home address and telephone number, email address, date of birth, social insurance, passport or other identification number (e.g., resident registration number), salary, nationality, tax jurisdiction, job title, any shares of Stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all options, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Stock Units or any other entitlement to shares of Stock or units awarded, canceled, purchased, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Participant's favor, for the purpose of managing and administering the Plan (“Data”). The Company and/or its Subsidiaries will transfer Data amongst themselves as necessary for the purpose of implementation, administration and management of the Participant’s participation in the Plan, and the Company and its Subsidiaries may further transfer Data to any third parties assisting the Company in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. These recipients may be located in the European Economic Area, or elsewhere throughout the world, such as the United States. The Company will protect the Data by insuring that any such recipients are certified under the E.U.-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework or have entered into an agreement to hold or process such Data in compliance with Privacy Shield Principles, the E.U. Model Clauses or similar legislation of the country where the Participant resides, and will receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, solely for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing the Participant’s participation in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required for the administration of the Plan and/or the subsequent holding of shares of Stock on the Participant’s behalf to a broker or other third party with whom the Participant may elect to deposit any shares of Stock acquired pursuant to the Plan. The Participant understands that he or she may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting his or her local human resources representative. Further, the Participant understands that he or she is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If the Participant does not consent, or later seeks to revoke the Participant’s consent, the Participant’s employment status with the Employer will not be affected. The only consequence of refusing or withdrawing consent is that the Company would not be able to grant Performance Stock Units or other equity awards to the Participant or administer or maintain such awards. Therefore, the Participant understands that refusing or withdrawing the Participant’s consent may affect the Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of the Participant’s refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, the Participant understands that he or she may contact the Participant’s local human resources representative. The Participant may, at any time, exercise the Participant’s rights provided under applicable personal data protection laws, which may include the right to (a) obtain confirmation as to the existence of Data, (b) verify the content, origin and accuracy of Data, (c) request the integration, update, amendment, deletion, or blockage (for breach of applicable laws) of Data, (d) oppose, for legal reasons, the collection, processing or transfer of the Data that is not necessary or required for the implementation, administration and/or operation of the Plan and the Participant’s participation in the Plan, and (e) withdraw the Participant’s consent to the collection, processing or transfer of Data as provided hereunder (in which case the Performance Stock Units will be null and void). The Participant may seek to exercise these rights by contacting the Participant’s local human resources representative. Finally, upon request of the Company or the Employer, the Participant agrees to provide an executed data privacy consent form to the Company and/or the Employer (or any other agreements or 9 consents that may be required by the Company and/or the Employer) that the Company and/or the Employer may deem necessary to obtain from the Participant for the purpose of administering the Participant’s participation in the Plan in compliance with the data privacy laws in the Participant’s country, either now or in the future. The Participant understands and agrees that he or she will not be able to participate in the Plan if the Participant fails to provide any such consent or agreement requested by the Company and/or the Employer. 13. Insider Trading/Market Abuse Laws. By participating in the Plan, the Participant agrees to comply with the Company’s policy on insider trading (to the extent that it is applicable to the Participant). The Participant further acknowledges that, depending on the Participant’s or the broker’s country of residence or where the shares of Stock are listed, the Participant may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws that may affect the Participant’s ability to accept, acquire, sell or otherwise dispose of shares of Stock, rights to shares of Stock (e.g., Performance Stock Units) or rights linked to the value of shares of Stock, during such times the Participant is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company as defined by the laws or regulations in the Participant’s country. Local insider trading laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or amendment of orders the Participant places before he or she possessed inside information. Furthermore, the Participant could be prohibited from (i) disclosing the inside information to any third party (other than on a “need to know” basis) and (ii) “tipping” third parties or causing them otherwise to buy or sell securities. The Participant understands that third parties include fellow employees. Any restrictions under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Company insider trading policy. The Participant acknowledges that it is the Participant’s responsibility to comply with any applicable restrictions, and that the Participant should therefore consult his or her personal advisor on this matter. 14. Foreign Asset/Account Reporting and Exchange Control Requirements. The Participant acknowledges that the Participant’s country may have certain foreign asset and/or foreign account reporting requirements and exchange controls which may affect the Participant’s ability to acquire or hold shares of Stock acquired under the Plan or cash received from participating in the Plan (including from any dividends paid on shares of Stock or sales proceeds from the sale of shares of Stock) in a brokerage or bank account outside the Participant’s country. The Participant may be required to report such accounts, assets or transactions to the tax or other authorities in the Participant’s country. The Participant also may be required to repatriate sale proceeds or other funds received as a result of the Participant’s participation in the Plan to the Participant’s country through a designated bank or broker within a certain time after receipt. The Participant acknowledges that it is the Participant’s responsibility to be compliant with such regulations, and the Participant should consult his or her personal legal advisor for any details. 15. Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on the Participant’s participation in the Plan, on the Performance Stock Units and on any shares of Stock acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company or any of its Subsidiaries determine it necessary or advisable to comply with local laws, rules and/or regulations or to facilitate the operation and administration of the Performance Stock Units and the Plan, and to require the Participant to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing. The Participant agrees to take any and all actions, and consents to any and all actions taken by the Company and its Subsidiaries, as may be required to allow the Company and its Subsidiaries to comply with local laws, rules and regulations in the Participant’s country. In addition, the Participant agrees to take any and all actions as may be required to comply with the Participant’s personal obligations under local laws, rules and regulations in the Participant’s country. 10 16. Addendum. This grant of Performance Stock Units shall be subject to any special terms and conditions set forth in any Addendum to this Agreement for the Participant’s country of residence or employment, if different. Moreover, if the Participant relocates to one of the countries included in the Addendum, the special terms and conditions for such country will apply to the Participant, to the extent the Company determines that the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons (or the Company may establish alternative terms and conditions as may be necessary or advisable to accommodate the Participant’s relocation). The Addendum constitutes part of this Agreement. 17. Electronic Delivery of Award Agreement. The Company, in its sole discretion, may decide to deliver any documents related to current or future participation in the Plan by electronic means. The Participant hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through an online or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or a third party designated by the Company. 18. Language. If the Participant has received this Agreement or any other document related to the Plan translated into a language other than English and if the meaning of the translated version is different than the English version, the English version will control. 19. No Advice Regarding Grant. The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding the Participant’s participation in the Plan, or the Participant’s acquisition or sale of the underlying shares of Stock. The Participant should consult with his or her own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding the Participant’s participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan. 20. Confidentiality. (a) The Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Participant’s position and employment by the Company has required, and will continue to require, that the Participant have access to, and knowledge of, valuable and sensitive information relating to the Company and its business including, but not limited to, information relating to its products and product development; pricing; engineering and design specifications; trade secrets; customers; suppliers; employees; unique and/or proprietary software and source code; and marketing plans (collectively, “Confidential Information”). (b) The Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Participant will keep in strict confidence, and will not, directly or indirectly, at any time during or after the Participant’s employment with the Company, disclose, furnish, disseminate, make available or use Confidential Information of the Company or its customers or suppliers, without limitation as to when or how the Participant may have acquired such information, other than in the proper performance of the Participant’s duties to the Company, unless and until such Confidential Information is or shall become general public knowledge through no fault of the Participant. (c) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall limit the Participant’s ability to file a charge or complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the National Labor Relations Board, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other U.S. federal, state or local and/or non U.S. governmental agency or commission (“Government 11 Agencies”). Furthermore, this Agreement does not limit the Participant’s ability to communicate with any Government Agencies or otherwise participate in any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by any Government Agency, including providing documents or other Company confidential information, without notice to the Company. This Agreement also does not limit the Employee’s right to receive an award for information provided to any Government Agencies. Pursuant to the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, an individual may not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that: (i) is made (A) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (B) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (ii) is made in a complaint or other document that is filed under seal in a lawsuit or other proceeding.

(d) The Participant agrees that, during the Participant’s employment and for 12 months after the termination of the Participant’s employment by the Participant or by the Employer or Company for any reason, the Participant will not directly or indirectly: (i) interfere with the Business of the Company, including, but not limited to, with respect to any relationship or agreement between the Company and any supplier to the Company during the period of the Participant’s employment; or (ii) solicit for the Participant’s benefit or the benefit of any other person or entity, the employment or services of, or hire or engage, any individual who was employed or engaged by the Company during the period of the Participant’s employment. 12 (e) The Participant acknowledges that the Company would suffer irreparable harm if the Participant fails to comply with Paragraph 20 or 21 of this Agreement, and that the Company would be entitled to any appropriate relief, including money damages, equitable relief and attorneys' fees. The Participant further acknowledges that enforcement of the covenants in Paragraph 21 is necessary to ensure the protection and continuity of the business and goodwill of the Company and that, due to the proprietary nature of the Business of the Company, the restrictions set forth in Paragraph 21 are reasonable as to geography, duration and scope. 22.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS This document (the “Addendum”) includes additional terms and conditions that govern the Performance Stock Units granted under the Plan if the Participant works and/or resides in one of the countries or jurisdictions listed below. If the Participant is a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which the Participant currently is residing and/or working, transfers employment and/or residency after the Grant Date or is considered a resident of another country for local law purposes, the Company shall, in its discretion, determine to what extent the terms and conditions contained herein shall apply to the Participant (or, in the event of the Participant’s relocation, the Company may establish alternative terms and conditions as may be necessary or advisable to accommodate such relocation). NOTIFICATIONS This document also includes information regarding certain issues of which the Participant should be aware with respect to the Participant’s participation in the Plan. The information is based on the securities, exchange control and other laws in effect in the respective countries as of January 2019. Such laws are often complex and change frequently. As a result, the Participant should not rely on the information noted in this document as the only source of information relating to the consequences of the Participant’s participation in the Plan because the information may be out of date by the time the Participant vests in Performance Stock Units or sells shares or Stock acquired under the Plan. In addition, the information contained herein is general in nature and may not apply to the Participant’s particular situation, and the Company is not in a position to assure the Participant of a particular result. Accordingly, the Participant should seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in the Participant’s country may apply to his or her situation. If the Participant is a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which the Participant currently is residing and/or working, transfers employment and/or residency after the Grant Date or is considered a resident of another country for local law purposes, the notifications contained herein may not apply to the Participant. European Union (“EU”) / European Economic Area (“EEA”) Data Privacy. If the Participant resides and/or performs services in the EU/EEA, Paragraph 12 of the Agreement shall be replaced with the following: controller responsible for the processing of the Participant’s personal data by the Company and the third parties noted below. The Company, with its registered address at One Village Center Drive, Van Buren Township, Michigan 48111, U.S.A., is the (a)Data Collection and Usage. Pursuant to applicable data protection laws, the Participant is hereby notified that the Company collects, processes and uses certain personally-identifiable information about the Participant for the legitimate interest of implementing, administering and managing the Plan and generally administering equity awards; specifically, including the Participant’s name, home address, email address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, citizenship, job title, any shares of Stock or directorships held in the Company, and 15 details of all Performance Stock Units, options or any other entitlement to shares of Stock awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, or outstanding in the Participant’s favor, which the Company receives from the Participant or the Employer (“Personal Data”). In granting the Performance Stock Units under the Plan, the Company will collect Personal Data for purposes of allocating shares of Stock and implementing, administering and managing the Plan. The Company’s legal basis for the collection, processing and use of Personal Data is the necessity of the processing for the Company to perform its contractual obligations under this Agreement and the Plan and the Company’s legitimate business interests of managing the Plan, administering employee equity awards and complying with its contractual and statutory obligations. (b)Stock Plan Administration Service Provider. The Company transfers Personal Data to Fidelity Stock Plan Services, an independent service provider based in the United States, which assists the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. In the future, the Company may select a different service provider and share Personal Data with another company that serves in a similar manner. The Company’s service provider will open an account for the Participant to receive and trade shares of Stock. The Participant will be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with the service provider, which is a condition to the Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan. The processing of Personal Data will take place through both electronic and non-electronic means. Personal Data will only be accessible by those individuals requiring access to it for purposes of implementing, administering and operating the Plan. (c)International Data Transfers. The Company and its service providers are based in the United States. The Participant’s country or jurisdiction may have different data privacy laws and protections than the United States. For example, the European Commission has issued only a limited adequacy finding with respect to the United States that applies only to the extent companies register for the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield program. Alternatively, an appropriate level of protection can be achieved by implementing safeguards such as the Standard Contractual Clauses adopted by the EU Commission. Personal Data will be transferred from the EU/EEA to the Company and onward from the Company to any of its service providers based on the EU Standard Contractual Clauses or, if applicable, registration with the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield program. The Participant may request a copy of such appropriate safeguards by contacting his or her local human resources department. (d)Data Retention. The Company will use Personal Data only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the Participant’s participation in the Plan or as required to comply with legal or regulatory obligations, including tax and securities laws. When the Company no longer needs Personal Data, the Company will remove it from its systems. If the Company keeps Personal Data longer, it would be to satisfy legal or regulatory obligations and the Company’s legal basis would be for compliance with relevant laws or regulations. (e)Data Subject Rights. The Participant may have a number of rights under data privacy laws in the Participant’s country. For example, the Participant’s rights may include the right to (i) request access or copies of Personal Data the Company processes, (ii) request rectification of incorrect Personal Data, (iii) request deletion of Personal Data, (iv) place restrictions on processing of Personal Data, (v) lodge complaints with competent authorities in the Participant’s country, and/or (vi) request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of Personal Data. To receive clarification regarding the Participant’s rights or to exercise the Participant’s rights, the Participant may contact his or her local human resources department. Brazil Form of Settlement. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the Final Award shall be settled in the form of a cash payment. Labor Law Acknowledgment. The Participant agrees that (i) the benefits provided under the Agreement and the Plan are the result of commercial transactions unrelated to the Participant’s employment; (ii) the Agreement and the Plan are not part of the terms and conditions of your employment; and (iii) the income 16 from the vesting of the Performance Stock Units, if any, is not part of the Participant’s remuneration from employment. Compliance with Law. By participating in the Plan, the Participant agrees to comply with applicable Brazilian laws and to pay any and all applicable taxes associated with the vesting of the Performance Stock Units and any cash payment made under the Plan. Bulgaria No country-specific provisions. Canada Form of Settlement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement or the Plan, the Performance Stock Units shall be settled only in shares of Stock (and may not be settled in cash). English Language Consent. The parties acknowledge that it is their express wish that the Agreement, as well as all documents, notices and legal proceedings entered into, given or instituted pursuant hereto or relating directly or indirectly hereto, be drawn up in English. Les parties reconnaissent avoir expressément souhaité que la convention, ainsi que tous les documents, avis et procédures judiciarise, exécutés, donnés ou intentés en vertu de, ou lié, directement ou indirectement à la présente convention, soient rédigés en langue anglaise. Data Privacy: The following provision supplements Paragraph 12 of the Agreement: The Participant hereby authorizes the Company and the Company’s representatives to discuss and obtain all relevant information from all personnel, professional or non-professional, involved in the administration of the Plan. The Participant further authorizes the Company, the Employer and its other Subsidiaries or Affiliates to disclose and discuss the Plan with their advisors. The Participant further authorizes the Company, the Employer and any other Subsidiary or Affiliate to record such information and to keep such information in the Participant’s employee file. China Form of Settlement. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the Final Award shall be settled in the form of a cash payment. France Type of Grant. The Performance Stock Units are not granted as “French-qualified” awards and are not intended to qualify for the special tax and social security treatment applicable to shares granted for no consideration under Sections L. 225-197 and seq. of the French Commercial Code, as amended. English Language. The parties to the Agreement acknowledge that it is their express wish that the Agreement, as well as all documents, notices and legal proceedings entered into, given or instituted pursuant hereto or relating directly or indirectly hereto, be drawn up in English.

India No country-specific provisions. JAPAN No country-specific provisions. Mexico Commercial Relationship. The Participant expressly recognizes that the Participant’s participation in the Plan and the Company’s grant of the Performance Stock Units does not constitute an employment relationship between the Participant and the Company. The Participant has been granted the Performance Stock Units as a consequence of the commercial relationship between the Company and the Company’s Subsidiary in Mexico that employs the Participant (“Visteon-Mexico”) and Visteon-Mexico is the Participant’s sole employer. Based on the foregoing, (a) the Participant expressly recognizes the Plan and the benefits the Participant may derive from the Participant’s participation in the Plan does not establish any rights between the Participant and Visteon-Mexico, (b) the Plan and the benefits the Participant may derive from the Participant’s participation in the Plan are not part of the employment conditions and/or benefits provided by Visteon-Mexico, and (c) any modifications or amendments of the Plan by the Company, or a termination of the Plan by the Company, shall not constitute a change or impairment of the terms and conditions of the Participant’s employment with Visteon-Mexico. Extraordinary Item of Compensation. The Participant expressly recognizes and acknowledges that the Participant’s participation in the Plan is a result of the discretionary and unilateral decision of the Company, as well as the Participant’s free and voluntary decision to participate in the Plan in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Agreement and this Addendum. As such, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Company may, in its sole discretion, amend and/or discontinue the Participant’s participation in the Plan at any time and without any liability. The value of the Performance Stock Units is an extraordinary item of compensation outside the scope of the Participant’s employment contract, if any. The Performance Stock Units are not part of the Participant’s regular or expected compensation for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits, or any similar payments, which are the exclusive obligations of Visteon-Mexico. Portugal English Language. The Participant hereby expressly declares that he or she has full knowledge of the English language and has read, understood and fully accepts and agrees with the terms and conditions established in the Plan and the Agreement. O Participante, pelo presente instrumento, declara expressamente que tem pleno conhecimento da língua inglesa e que leu, compreendeu e livremente aceitou e concordou com os termos e condições estabelecidas no Plano e do Contrato. Romania No country-specific provisions. 18 Russia Transaction Outside of Russia. The Participant understands that accepting the Performance Stock Units and the terms and conditions of the Agreement will result in a contract between the Participant and the Company completed in the United States and that the Agreement is governed by U.S. law. The Participant understands and acknowledges that any shares of Stock issued under the Plan shall be delivered to the Participant through a brokerage account maintained outside Russia. The Participant understands that the Participant may hold shares of Stock in a brokerage account outside Russia; however, in no event will shares of Stock issued to the Participant and/or share certificates or other instruments be delivered to the Participant in Russia. The Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Participant is not permitted to sell or otherwise transfer the shares of Stock directly to other Russian legal entities or individuals. Finally, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Participant may sell or otherwise transfer the shares of Stock only outside Russia. Securities Law Information. The Agreement, including these specific provisions for Russia, the Plan and other incidental communication materials distributed in connection with the Plan do not constitute advertising or an offering of securities in Russia. Absent any requirement under Russian law, the issuance of shares of Stock pursuant to the Plan has not and will not be registered in Russia; hence, the shares of Stock described in any plan-related documents may not be used for offering or public circulation in Russia. Slovakia No country-specific provisions. South Korea No country-specific provisions. Spain Acknowledgement of Discretionary Nature of the Plan; No Vested Rights. In accepting the grant of Performance Stock Units, the Participant acknowledges that he or she consents to participation in the Plan and has received a copy of the Plan. The Participant understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and in its sole discretion granted Performance Stock Units under the Plan to individuals who may be employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates throughout the world. The decision is a limited decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any grant will not economically or otherwise bind the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates on an ongoing basis. Consequently, the Participant understands that the Performance Stock Units are granted on the assumption and condition that the Performance Stock Units and the shares of Stock acquired upon vesting of the Performance Stock Units shall not become a part of any employment contract (either with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever. In addition, the Participant understands that this grant would not be made to the Participant but for the assumptions and conditions referenced above; thus, the Participant acknowledges and freely accepts that should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, the grant of the Performance Stock Units shall be null and void. The Participant understands and agrees that, as a condition of the grant of the Performance Stock Units, the Participant’s termination of employment for any reason (including the reasons listed below) will automatically result in the loss of the Performance Stock Units to the extent the Performance Stock Units 19 have not vested as of date that the Participant ceases active employment. In particular, unless otherwise provided in the Agreement, the Participant understands and agrees that any unvested Performance Stock Units as of the date the Participant ceases active employment will be forfeited without entitlement to the underlying shares of Stock or to any amount of indemnification in the event of the termination of employment by reason of, but not limited to, resignation, disciplinary dismissal adjudged to be with cause, disciplinary dismissal adjudged or recognized to be without cause, individual or collective dismissal on objective grounds, whether adjudged or recognized to be with or without cause, material modification of the terms of employment under Article 41 of the Workers’ Statute, relocation under Article 40 of the Workers’ Statute, Article 50 of the Workers’ Statute, unilateral withdrawal by the Employer and under Article 10.3 of the Royal Decree 1382/1985. The Participant acknowledges that the Participant has read and specifically accepts the conditions referred to in the Agreement regarding the impact of a termination of employment on the Participant’s Performance Stock Units. Taiwan Securities Law Information. The Performance Stock Units and any shares of Stock to be issued pursuant to the Plan are available only for employees. The grant of Performance Stock Units is not a public offer of securities by a Taiwanese company. Thailand No country-specific provisions. Tunisia Form of Settlement. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the Final Award shall be settled in the form of a cash payment. United Kingdom Terms and Conditions Withholding of Taxes. Without limitation to Paragraph 6 of the Agreement, the Participant hereby agrees that the Participant is liable for all Tax-Related Items and hereby covenants to pay all such Tax-Related Items, as and when requested by the Company, the Employer or by Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs (“HMRC”) (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority). The Participant also hereby agrees to indemnify and keep indemnified the Company and the Employer against any Tax-Related Items that they are required to pay or withhold on the Participant’s behalf or have paid or will pay to HMRC (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant is a director or executive officer of the Company (within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act), the Participant may not be able to indemnify the Company or the Employer for the amount of any income tax not collected from or paid by the Participant, as it may be considered a loan. In this case, the amount of any income tax not collected within 90 days after the end of the U.K. tax year in which the event giving rise to the Tax-Related Items occurs may constitute an additional benefit to the Participant on which additional income tax and national insurance contribution may be payable. The Participant understands that the Participant will be responsible for reporting and paying any income tax due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self- assessment regime and for reimbursing the Company and/or the Employer for the value of any employee national insurance contribution due on this additional benefit, which may be recovered from the Participant’s by the Company or the Employer by any of the means referred to in Paragraph 6 of the Agreement. Exclusion of Claim. The Participant hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Participant will have no entitlement to compensation or damages insofar as such entitlement arises or may arise from the Participant ceasing to have rights under or to be entitled to Performance Stock Units, whether or not as a 20 result of termination of employment (whether such termination is in breach of contract or otherwise), or from the loss of diminution in value of the Performance Stock Units. Upon the grant of the Performance Stock Units, the Participant shall be deemed to have waived irrevocably such entitlement. 21 EXHIBIT 10.3.2 VISTEON CORPORATION 2020 INCENTIVE PLAN RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT GRANT AGREEMENT Visteon Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), subject to the terms of the Visteon Corporation 2020 Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and this restricted stock unit agreement (this “Agreement”), hereby grants to Participant Name, Global ID Employee ID, (the “Participant”), restricted stock units (“Restricted Stock Units”) as further described herein. For purposes of this Agreement, “Employer” means the entity (the Company or a Subsidiary) that employs the Participant. All capitalized words not defined in this Agreement have the meanings assigned to them in the Plan. 1. Grant of Restricted Stock Units. The Company hereby grants to the Participant Number of Awards Granted Restricted Stock Units with a grant value of Grant Custom 1 per unit, effective as of Grant Date (the “Grant Date”) under the Plan, and subject to the restrictions set forth in this Agreement. In the event of certain corporate transactions, the number of Restricted Stock Units covered by this Agreement may be adjusted by the Committee as further described in Section 3 of the Plan. Electronic acceptance of this Agreement through the third party designee must be made within 90 days of the Grant Date (by Accept By Date); otherwise the award in its entirety will be forfeited. 2. Vesting of Restricted Stock Units. (a) Unless terminated earlier pursuant to Paragraph 3, during the Participant’s continuous employment with the Employer, the Restricted Stock Units will vest in accordance with the following vesting schedule: (i) (ii) Vesting Date 1 Quantity will vest on Vesting Date 1; Vesting Date 2 Quantity will vest on Vesting Date 2; and (iii) Vesting Date 3 Quantity will vest on Vesting Date 3 (b) If a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan) occurs before all of the Restricted Stock Units granted under this Agreement have vested, the following rules will apply, in addition to the vesting provided for in Paragraph 2(a): (i) Unless forfeited earlier pursuant to Paragraph 3, if the Restricted Stock Units are not assumed, converted or replaced by the acquirer or other continuing entity, the outstanding Restricted Stock Units that have not previously vested will become fully vested immediately before the Change in Control. (ii) If (A) the Restricted Stock Units are assumed, converted or replaced by the acquirer or other continuing entity and (B) the Participant’s employment is terminated within 24 months following the Change in Control by the Employer without “Cause” (as defined below) (other than by reason of death or disability) or as otherwise set forth in any change in control agreement, the outstanding Restricted Stock Units that have not previously vested will become fully vested immediately upon the termination of the Participant’s employment. 3. Termination of Employment. (a) Except as set forth in Paragraph 2(b)(ii) or in the remaining provisions of this Rev. 03/2021 Paragraph 3, if the Participant’s employment with the Employer is terminated for any reason, the Participant will forfeit any and all rights to Restricted Stock Units that have not vested on the termination date, and such Restricted Stock Units will be cancelled. A transfer or assignment of employment to a company that is owned at least 50% directly or indirectly by the Company shall not be deemed a termination of employment solely for purposes of Restricted Stock Units covered by this Agreement. (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph 3(a), if the Participant is placed on an approved leave of absence, with or without pay, the Restricted Stock Units will vest in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 2 as if the Participant was actively employed. (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph 3(a), if the Participant’s employment with the Employer is terminated by reason of disability (for U.S. employees, as defined in the Company’s long-term disability plan and for employees outside of the U.S. as determined by the Employer’s long-term disability policy or by the Committee or its delegate, in its sole discretion), death, “retirement” (as defined below) or involuntary termination by the Employer without “Cause” (as defined below), and either (x) the Participant had remained in the employ of the Employer for at least 180 days following the Grant Date, or (y) a Change in Control has occurred before the termination of employment, the Restricted Stock Units that have not previously vested and that do not fully vest upon that termination pursuant to Paragraph 2(b)(ii) will vest on a pro rata basis so that, taking into account the Restricted Stock Units, if any, that have previously vested pursuant to Paragraph 2(a)(i) or pursuant to Paragraphs 2(a)(i) and 2(a)(ii), the percentage of all Restricted Stock Units granted under this Agreement that is vested is equal to 100% multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days from the date of grant to the date of the termination of the Participant’s employment, inclusive, and the denominator of which is the number of days from the Grant Date to Vesting Date 3. (d) For purposes of this Agreement, “retirement” shall mean the Participant’s voluntary termination of employment either (1) after attaining age 55 and completion of 10 years of service, or (2) after completion of at least 30 years of service, regardless of age. (e) For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Cause” shall mean (i) the willful and continued failure by the Participant to substantially perform the Participant’s duties with the Employer (other than any such failure resulting from the Participant’s incapacity due to physical or mental illness) after a written demand for substantial performance is delivered to the Participant by (A) if the Participant is an executive officer of the Company, the Board of Directors of the Company, or (B) if the Participant is not an executive officer of the Company, the head of the Company’s global human resources department, which demand specifically identifies the manner in which the Employer believes that the Participant has not substantially performed the Participant’s duties, or (ii) the willful engaging by the Participant in conduct which is demonstrably and materially injurious to the Company or a Subsidiary, monetarily or otherwise. (f) For purposes of the Restricted Stock Units, the Participant’s employment is considered terminated as of the earlier of (a) the date the Participant’s employment with the Employer is terminated; (b) subject to Paragraph 3(b), the date on which the Participant ceases to provide active service to the Employer; or (c) the date on which the Participant receives a notice of termination of employment (in all cases, regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Participant is employed or rendering services or the terms of the Participant’s employment or service contract, if any). The Participant’s rights to participate in the Plan will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., service would not include any contractual notice or any period of “garden leave” or period of pay in lieu of such notice required under any employment law in the country where the Participant works or resides (including, but not limited to, statutory law, regulatory law and/or common law)). The Committee or its delegate shall have the 2 exclusive discretion to determine when the Participant is no longer actively providing services for purposes of the Restricted Stock Units. 4. Settlement of Vested Units. (a) The Participant’s vested Restricted Stock Units will be settled upon the earliest to occur of (i) the vesting date applicable to such Restricted Stock Unit as set forth in Paragraph 2(a) above (disregarding any acceleration of the vesting date under Paragraph 2(b) or Paragraph 3 above), (ii) in the case of accelerated vesting under Paragraph 3(c) due to the death of the Participant, as soon as practicable (and in any event within 60 days) following the Participant’s date of death, or (iii) in any other case in which the Participant terminates employment and is entitled to accelerated vesting, within ten days thereafter, except to the extent that Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) requires that payment be postponed for six months and one day, or the Participant’s earlier death occurring, after the date of the Participant’s “separation from service” (such applicable date, the “Settlement Date”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, in its sole discretion and to the extent permitted under Treasury Regulation § 1.409A3(j)(4)(ix)(B), terminate this Agreement and pay all outstanding Restricted Stock Units to the Participant, on a fully vested and immediately payable basis, on a Settlement Date within 30 days before, upon or within twelve months after Change in Control that constitutes a “change in the ownership,” a “change in the effective control” or a “change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets” of the Company within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. (b) Settlement will be made through the delivery of one share of Stock for each vested Restricted Stock Unit, less applicable withholding and brokerage fees associated with the sale of any shares of Stock to pay applicable withholding. Any shares of Stock will be issued in book-entry form, registered in the Participant’s name or in the name of the Participant’s legal representatives, beneficiaries or heirs, as the case may be. The Company will not deliver any fractional share of Stock and the Committee shall determine, in its discretion, whether cash equal to the Fair Market Value of such fractional share shall be given in lieu of fractional shares or whether some other more administratively feasible mechanism will be utilized. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in certain jurisdictions as stated in the Addendum to this grant agreement, the Committee may direct that in lieu of settlement through delivery of shares of Stock, the Participant’s vested Restricted Stock Units will be settled by a single lump sum cash payment equal to the number of vested Restricted Stock Units to be settled multiplied by the Fair Market Value on the Settlement Date of a share of Stock, less applicable withholding taxes. All Restricted Stock Units that have become vested and are settled will be cancelled. (c) The Company may retain the services of a third-party administrator to perform administrative services in connection with the Plan. To the extent the Company has retained such an administrator, any reference to the Company will be deemed to refer to any such third-party administrator retained by the Company, and the Company may require the Participant to exercise the Participant’s rights under this Agreement only through such third-party administrator. 5. Dividend Equivalents. On each record date during the Grant Date through the Settlement Date, the Participant shall receive, with respect to each Restricted Stock Unit, an additional number of Restricted Stock Units equal to the number that such Participant would have received if the Participant had been the holder of record of one share of Stock and had reinvested any cash dividend paid on such share of Stock into Restricted Stock Units (at the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the later of (i) the date the dividend is paid and (ii) the ex-dividend date) subject to the same terms and conditions as the Restricted Stock Units granted herein. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall dividend equivalents with respect to a Restricted Stock Unit be paid to the Participant unless and until the underlying Restricted Stock Unit vests, and if such Units are forfeited, the Participant shall have no right to such dividend equivalents. 3  6. Responsibility for Taxes; Withholding. (a) Regardless of any action the Company or the Employer takes with respect to any or all income tax (including U.S. federal, state and local taxes and/or non-U.S. taxes), social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax- Related Items”), the Participant acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by the Participant is and remains the Participant’s sole responsibility. Furthermore, the Company and the Employer (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units, including the grant of the Restricted Stock Units, the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, the subsequent sale of any shares of Stock acquired pursuant to this Agreement and the receipt of any dividend equivalents or dividends; and (ii) do not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units to reduce or eliminate the Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items. Further, if the Participant becomes subject to taxation in more than one country between the date the Restricted Stock Units are granted and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, the Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one country. (b) The Company and/or the Employer may satisfy its obligation to withhold Tax-Related Items associated with the Restricted Stock Units by withholding a number of Restricted Stock Units or shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value, as determined by the Committee, equal to the amount required to be withheld. The Participant shall be deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Stock subject to the Restricted Stock Units, notwithstanding that a number of the shares of Stock are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units. The Committee shall determine, in its discretion, whether cash shall be given in lieu of any fractional Restricted Stock Unit remaining after the withholding requirements are satisfied equal to the Fair Market Value of such fractional share or whether some other more administratively feasible mechanism will be utilized. (c) Dividend equivalents paid on Restricted Stock Units are subject to applicable withholding of Tax-Related Items as described in Paragraph 6(b). (d) This Restricted Stock Unit is intended to be excepted from coverage under, or compliant with, the provisions of Section 409A of the Code, and the regulations and other guidance promulgated thereunder (“409A”). Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provisions of this Agreement or the Plan to the contrary, if the Restricted Stock Unit is subject to the provisions of 409A (and not exempted therefrom), the provisions of this Agreement and the Plan shall be administered, interpreted and construed in a manner necessary to comply with 409A (or disregarded to the extent such provision cannot be so administered, interpreted or construed). If any payment or benefits hereunder may be deemed to constitute nonconforming deferred compensation subject to taxation under the provisions of 409A, the Participant agrees that the Company may, without the consent of the Participant, modify this Agreement to the extent and in the manner the Company deems necessary or advisable in order either to preclude any such payment or benefit from being deemed “deferred compensation” within the meaning of 409A or to provide such payments or benefits in a manner that complies with the provisions of 409A such that they will not be subject to the imposition of taxes and/or interest thereunder. If, at the time of the Participant’s separation from service (within the meaning of 409A), (i) the Participant shall be a specified employee (within the meaning of 409A and using the identification methodology selected by the Company from time to time) and (ii) the Company shall make a good faith determination that an amount payable hereunder constitutes deferred compensation (within the meaning of 409A) the settlement of which is required to be delayed pursuant to the six-month delay rule set forth in 409A in order to avoid taxes or penalties under 409A, then the Company shall not settle such amount on the otherwise scheduled settlement date, but shall instead settle it, without interest, on the first 4 business day of the month after such six-month period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company makes no representation and/or warranties with respect to compliance with 409A, and the Participants recognizes and acknowledges that 409A could potentially impose upon the Participant certain taxes and/or interest charges for which the Participant is and shall remain solely responsible. 7. Conditions on Award. (a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Committee may cancel an award of Restricted Stock Units, and may refuse to settle vested Restricted Stock Units, if before a Change in Control and during the period from the date of the Participant's termination of employment from the Employer to the date of settlement, the Committee determines that the Participant has either (i) refused to be available, upon request, at reasonable times and upon a reasonable basis, to consult with, supply information to and otherwise cooperate with the Company or its Subsidiaries with respect to any matter that was handled by the Participant or under the Participant's supervision while the Participant was in the employ of the Employer or (ii) engaged in any activity in violation of any non-competition and/or non- solicitation covenants. (b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Restricted Stock Unit granted hereunder will be subject to mandatory repayment by the Participant to the Company to the extent the Participant is, or in the future becomes, subject to (i) any Company claw-back or recoupment policy that is adopted to comply with the requirements of any applicable laws, rules or regulations, or otherwise, or (ii) any applicable laws which impose mandatory recoupment, under circumstances set forth in such applicable laws, including as required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, or other applicable law, regulation or stock exchange listing requirement, as may be in effect from time to time, and which may operate to create additional rights for the Company with respect to the Restricted Stock Unit and recovery of amounts relating thereto. By accepting this Restricted Stock Unit, the Participant agrees and acknowledges that the Participant is obligated to cooperate with, and provide any and all assistance necessary to, the Company to recover or recoup this Restricted Stock Unit or amounts paid under this Restricted Stock Unit subject to claw-back pursuant to such law, government regulation, stock exchange listing requirement or Company policy. Such cooperation and assistance shall include, but is not limited to, executing, completing and submitting any documentation necessary to recover or recoup this Restricted Stock Unit or amounts paid hereunder from the Participant’s accounts, or pending or future compensation awards that may be made to the Participant. 8. Non-transferability. The Participant has no right to sell, assign, transfer, pledge, or otherwise alienate the Restricted Stock Units, and any attempted sale, assignment, transfer, pledge or other conveyance will be null and void. 9. Securities Law Restrictions. (a) If the Participant is resident outside of the United States, the grant of Restricted Stock Units is not intended to be a public offering of securities in the Participant’s country. The Company has not submitted any registration statement, prospectus or other filings with the local securities authorities (unless otherwise required under local law), and this grant of Restricted Stock Units is not subject to the supervision of the local securities authorities. (b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, may delay transferring shares of Stock to the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary in settlement of vested Restricted Stock Units or may impose restrictions or conditions on the Participant’s (or any beneficiary’s) ability to directly or indirectly sell, hypothecate, pledge, loan, or 5 otherwise encumber, transfer or dispose of the shares of Stock, if the Committee determines that such action is necessary or desirable for compliance with any applicable state, federal or non-U.S. law, the requirements of any stock exchange on which the shares of Stock is then traded, or is requested by the Company or the underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Company’s securities pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act of 1933. 10. (a) Limited Interest. The grant of the Restricted Stock Units will not be construed as giving the Participant any interest other than as provided in this Agreement. The Participant’s Restricted Stock Units constitutes an unsecured promise by the Company to pay the Participant one share of Stock on the settlement of vested Restricted Stock Units. As the holder of Restricted Stock Units, the Participant has only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of the Company. The Company will credit the Restricted Stock Units to a book-keeping account in the name of the Participant, but no assets of the Company will be held or set aside as security for the obligations of the Company hereunder. The Participant will have no voting rights or any other rights as a shareholder as a result of the grant or vesting of the Restricted Stock Units unless and until shares of Stock are issued in settlement of vested Restricted Stock Units. (b) The grant of the Restricted Stock Units will not affect in any way the right or power of the Company to make or authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations, or other changes in the Company’s capital structure or its business, or any merger, consolidation or business combination of the Company, or any issuance or modification of any term, condition, or covenant of any bond, debenture, debt, preferred stock or other instrument ahead of or affecting the stock or the rights of the holders thereof, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business or any other Company act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise. 11. Nature of Grant. In accepting the Restricted Stock Units, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that: (a) the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time; (b) the grant of Restricted Stock Units is a one-time benefit and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Restricted Stock Units, benefits in lieu of Restricted Stock Units, or other benefits in the future, even if Restricted Stock Units have been granted repeatedly in the past; (c) all decisions with respect to future grants of Restricted Stock Units, if any, and their terms and conditions, will be made by the Company, in its sole discretion; (d) nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to create or enlarge any other contractual obligation between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and the Participant; (e) (f) the Participant is voluntarily participating in the Plan; the grant of the Restricted Stock Units will not confer on the Participant any right to continue as an employee or continue in service of the Employer, nor interfere in any way with the right of the Employer to terminate the Participant's employment at any time; 6 (g) the grant of Restricted Stock Units will not be interpreted to form an employment or service contract or relationship with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (h) the Restricted Stock Units are extraordinary items that do not constitute compensation of any kind for services of any kind rendered to the Company or any Subsidiary, and are outside the scope of the Participant’s employment contract, if any; (i) (j) the Restricted Stock Units are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation; the Restricted Stock Units are not part of the Participant’s normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end-of-services payments, holiday pay, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits, or similar payments and in no event should they be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to past services for the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates; (k) the future value of the shares of Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty; (l) in consideration of the Restricted Stock Unit, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from the Restricted Stock Unit resulting from termination of the Participant’s employment (for any reason whatsoever) and the Participant irrevocably releases the Company and its Subsidiaries or Affiliates from any such claim that may arise; if such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, then by signing or electronically accepting this Agreement, the Participant shall be deemed to have waived the Participant’s entitlement to pursue such claim; (m) unless otherwise provided in the Plan or by the Company in its discretion, the Restricted Stock Units and the benefits evidenced by this Agreement do not create any entitlement to have the Restricted Stock Units or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company nor be exchanged, cashed out or substituted for, in connection with any corporate transaction affecting the shares of Stock; (n) unless otherwise agreed with the Company, the Restricted Stock Units and the shares of Stock subject to the Restricted Stock Units, and the income and value of same, are not granted as consideration for, or in connection with, the service the Participant may provide as a director of a Subsidiary; and (o) neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates shall be liable for any change in the value of the Restricted Stock Units, the amount realized upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units or the amount realized upon a subsequent sale of any shares of Stock acquired upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, resulting from any fluctuation of the United States Dollar/local currency foreign exchange rate. 12. Data Privacy. The Company and the Employer hold and control certain personal information about the Participant, including, but not limited to, the Participant’s name, home address and telephone number, email address, date of birth, social insurance, passport or other identification number (e.g., resident registration number), salary, nationality, tax jurisdiction, job title, any shares of Stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all options, Restricted Stock Units or any other entitlement to shares of 7 Stock or units awarded, canceled, purchased, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Participant's favor, for the purpose of managing and administering the Plan (“Data”). The Company and/or its Subsidiaries will transfer Data amongst themselves as necessary for the purpose of implementation, administration and management of the Participant’s participation in the Plan, and the Company and its Subsidiaries may further transfer Data to any third parties assisting the Company in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. These recipients may be located in the European Economic Area, or elsewhere throughout the world, such as the United States. The Company will protect the Data by insuring that any such recipients are certified under the E.U.-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework or have entered into an agreement to hold or process such Data in compliance with Privacy Shield Principles, the E.U. Model Clauses or similar legislation of the country where the Participant resides, and will receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, solely for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing the Participant’s participation in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required for the administration of the Plan and/or the subsequent holding of shares of Stock on the Participant’s behalf to a broker or other third party with whom the Participant may elect to deposit any shares of Stock acquired pursuant to the Plan. The Participant understands that he or she may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting his or her local human resources representative. Further, the Participant understands that he or she is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If the Participant does not consent, or later seeks to revoke the Participant’s consent, the Participant’s employment status with the Employer will not be affected. The only consequence of refusing or withdrawing consent is that the Company would not be able to grant Restricted Stock Units or other equity awards to the Participant or administer or maintain such awards. Therefore, the Participant understands that refusing or withdrawing the Participant’s consent may affect the Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of the Participant’s refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, the Participant understands that he or she may contact the Participant’s local human resources representative. The Participant may, at any time, exercise the Participant’s rights provided under applicable personal data protection laws, which may include the right to (a) obtain confirmation as to the existence of Data, (b) verify the content, origin and accuracy of Data, (c) request the integration, update, amendment, deletion, or blockage (for breach of applicable laws) of Data, (d) oppose, for legal reasons, the collection, processing or transfer of the Data that is not necessary or required for the implementation, administration and/or operation of the Plan and the Participant’s participation in the Plan, and (e) withdraw the Participant’s consent to the collection, processing or transfer of Data as provided hereunder (in which case the Restricted Stock Units will be null and void). The Participant may seek to exercise these rights by contacting the Participant’s local human resources representative. Finally, upon request of the Company or the Employer, the Participant agrees to provide an executed data privacy consent form to the Company and/or the Employer (or any other agreements or consents that may be required by the Company and/or the Employer) that the Company and/or the Employer may deem necessary to obtain from the Participant for the purpose of administering the Participant’s participation in the Plan in compliance with the data privacy laws in the Participant’s country, either now or in the future. The Participant understands and agrees that he or she will not be able to participate in the Plan if the Participant fails to provide any such consent or agreement requested by the Company and/or the Employer. 13. Insider Trading/Market Abuse Laws. By participating in the Plan, the Participant agrees to comply with the Company’s policy on insider trading (to the extent that it is applicable to the Participant). The Participant further acknowledges that, depending on the Participant’s or the broker’s country of residence or where the shares of Stock are listed, the Participant may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws that may affect the Participant’s ability to accept, acquire, sell or otherwise dispose of shares of Stock, rights to shares of Stock (e.g., Restricted Stock Units) or rights linked to the value of shares of Stock, during such times the Participant is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company as defined by the 8 laws or regulations in the Participant’s country. Local insider trading laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or amendment of orders the Participant places before he or she possessed inside information. Furthermore, the Participant could be prohibited from (i) disclosing the inside information to any third party (other than on a “need to know” basis) and (ii) “tipping” third parties or causing them otherwise to buy or sell securities. The Participant understands that third parties include fellow employees. Any restrictions under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Company insider trading policy. The Participant acknowledges that it is the Participant’s responsibility to comply with any applicable restrictions, and that the Participant should therefore consult his or her personal advisor on this matter. 14. Foreign Asset/Account Reporting and Exchange Control Requirements The Participant acknowledges that the Participant’s country may have certain foreign asset and/or foreign account reporting requirements and exchange controls which may affect the Participant’s ability to acquire or hold shares of Stock acquired under the Plan or cash received from participating in the Plan (including from any dividends paid on shares of Stock or sales proceeds from the sale of shares of Stock) in a brokerage or bank account outside the Participant’s country. The Participant may be required to report such accounts, assets or transactions to the tax or other authorities in the Participant’s country. The Participant also may be required to repatriate sale proceeds or other funds received as a result of the Participant’s participation in the Plan to the Participant’s country through a designated bank or broker within a certain time after receipt. The Participant acknowledges that it is the Participant’s responsibility to be compliant with such regulations, and the Participant should consult his or her personal legal advisor for any details. 15. Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on the Participant’s participation in the Plan, on the Restricted Stock Units and on any shares of Stock acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company or any of its Subsidiaries determine it necessary or advisable to comply with local laws, rules and/or regulations or to facilitate the operation and administration of the Restricted Stock Units and the Plan, and to require the Participant to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing. The Participant agrees to take any and all actions, and consents to any and all actions taken by the Company and its Subsidiaries, as may be required to allow the Company and its Subsidiaries to comply with local laws, rules and regulations in the Participant’s country. In addition, the Participant agrees to take any and all actions as may be required to comply with the Participant’s personal obligations under local laws, rules and regulations in the Participant’s country. 16. Addendum. This grant of Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to any special terms and conditions set forth in any Addendum to this Agreement for the Participant’s country of residence or employment, if different. Moreover, if the Participant relocates to one of the countries included in the Addendum, the special terms and conditions for such country will apply to the Participant, to the extent the Company determines that the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons (or the Company may establish alternative terms and conditions as may be necessary or advisable to accommodate the Participant’s relocation). The Addendum constitutes part of this Agreement. 17. Electronic Delivery of Award Agreement. The Company, in its sole discretion, may decide to deliver any documents related to current or future participation in the Plan by electronic means. The Participant hereby consents to receive such 9 documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through an online or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or a third party designated by the Company. 18. Language. If the Participant has received this Agreement or any other document related to the Plan translated into a language other than English and if the meaning of the translated version is different than the English version, the English version will control. 19. No Advice Regarding Grant. The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding the Participant’s participation in the Plan, or the Participant’s acquisition or sale of the underlying shares of Stock. The Participant should consult with his or her own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding the Participant’s participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan. 20. Confidentiality. (a) The Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Participant’s position and employment by the Company has required, and will continue to require, that the Participant have access to, and knowledge of, valuable and sensitive information relating to the Company and its business including, but not limited to, information relating to its products and product development; pricing; engineering and design specifications; trade secrets; customers; suppliers; employees; unique and/or proprietary software and source code; and marketing plans (collectively, “Confidential Information”). (b) The Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Participant will keep in strict confidence, and will not, directly or indirectly, at any time during or after the Participant’s employment with the Company, disclose, furnish, disseminate, make available or use Confidential Information of the Company or its customers or suppliers, without limitation as to when or how the Participant may have acquired such information, other than in the proper performance of the Participant’s duties to the Company, unless and until such Confidential Information is or shall become general public knowledge through no fault of the Participant. (c) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall limit the Participant’s ability to file a charge or complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the National Labor Relations Board, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other U.S. federal, state or local and/or non-U.S. governmental agency or commission (“Government Agencies”). Furthermore, this Agreement does not limit the Participant’s ability to communicate with any Government Agencies or otherwise participate in any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by any Government Agency, including providing documents or other Company confidential information, without notice to the Company. This Agreement also does not limit the Participant’s right to receive an award for information provided to any Government Agencies. Pursuant to the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, an individual may not be held criminally or civilly liable under any U.S. federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that: (a) is made (i) in confidence to a U.S. federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (b) is made in a complaint or other document that is filed under seal in a lawsuit or other proceeding. Further, an individual who files a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of law may disclose the employer's trade secrets to the attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding if the individual: (a) files any document containing the trade secret under seal; and (b) does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order. 21. Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation. (a) For purposes of this Agreement, “Competition” by the Participant means engaging in, or otherwise directly or indirectly being employed by or acting as a consultant to, or being a director, officer, 10 employee, principal, agent, shareholder, member, owner or partner of, anywhere in the world that competes, directly or indirectly, with the Company in the Business; provided, however, it shall not be a violation of this Agreement for the Participant to become the registered or beneficial owner of up to five percent (5%) of any class of share of any entity in Competition with the Company that is publicly traded on a recognized domestic or foreign securities exchange, provided that the Participant does not otherwise participate in the Business of such corporation. (b) For purposes of this Agreement, “Business” means the creation, development, manufacture, sale, promotion and distribution of vehicle electronics, transportation components, integrated systems and modules, electronic technology and other products and services that the Company engages in, or is preparing to become engaged in, at the time of the Participant’s termination. (c) The Participant agrees that, during the Participant’s employment and for 12 months after the termination of the Participant’s employment by the Participant or by the Employer or Company for any reason other than by reason of involuntary without Cause, the Participant will not directly or indirectly (i) engage in Competition with the Company; (ii) solicit for the Participant’s benefit or the benefit of any other person or entity, business of the same or of a similar nature to the Business from any customer that is doing business with the Company or that did business with the Company in the six months before the termination of the Participant’s employment; or (iii) solicit for the Participant’s benefit or the benefit of any other person or entity from any known potential customer of the Company, business of the same or of a similar nature to the Business. (d) The Participant agrees that, during the Participant’s employment and for 12 months after the termination of the Participant’s employment by the Participant or by the Employer or Company for any reason, the Participant will not directly or indirectly: (i) interfere with the Business of the Company, including, but not limited to, with respect to any relationship or agreement between the Company and any supplier to the Company during the period of the Participant’s employment; or (ii) solicit for the Participant’s benefit or the benefit of any other person or entity, the employment or services of, or hire or engage, any individual who was employed or engaged by the Company during the period of the Participant’s employment. (e) The Participant acknowledges that the Company would suffer irreparable harm if the Participant fails to comply with Paragraph 20 or 21 of this Agreement, and that the Company would be entitled to any appropriate relief, including money damages, equitable relief and attorneys' fees. The Participant further acknowledges that enforcement of the covenants in Paragraph 21 is necessary to ensure the protection and continuity of the business and goodwill of the Company and that, due to the proprietary nature of the Business of the Company, the restrictions set forth in Paragraph 21 are reasonable as to geography, duration and scope. 22. Jurisdiction and Venue. The parties agree that enforcement of this Agreement, including any legal actions for breach of this Agreement, may only be brought in a state or federal court located in Oakland County or Wayne County, Michigan or, at Company’s or Employer’s discretion, in the jurisdiction in which the Participant is located. The parties expressly agree that Michigan state and federal courts may properly exercise personal jurisdiction over them in any such litigation, and hereby waive any objections to personal jurisdiction and venue in: (a) any Michigan state court located in Wayne County or Oakland County, Michigan; (b) the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan; or (c) at the Company’s or Employer’s discretion, in the jurisdiction in which the Participant is located. 23. Incorporation by Reference. The terms of the Plan are expressly incorporated herein by reference. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the Plan, the Plan will govern. 11 24. Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without reference to any conflict of laws principles thereof. Severability. 25. If any provision of the Agreement is held unenforceable, illegal or invalid for any reason, the unenforceability, illegality or invalidity will not affect the remaining provisions of the Agreement, and the Agreement is to be construed and enforced as if the unenforceable, illegal or invalid provision has not been inserted, and the provisions so held to be invalid, unenforceable or otherwise illegal shall be reformed to the extent (and only to the extent) necessary to make it enforceable, valid and legal. 26. Waiver. The waiver by the Company with respect to the Participant’s (or any other participant’s) compliance of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by such party of a provision of this Agreement. Binding Effect; No Third Party Beneficiaries. 27. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and the Participant, and to each of our respective heirs, representatives, successors and permitted assigns. Neither the terms of this Agreement nor the Plan shall confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than the Company and the Participant and to each of our respective heirs, representatives, successor and permitted assigns. 28. Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended, modified, terminated or otherwise altered except by the written consent of Visteon Corporation and the Participant. 29. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. 12 ADDENDUM TO THE RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT GRANT AGREEMENT COUNTRY-SPECIFIC TERMS AND CONDITIONS Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Addendum have the meanings set forth in the Plan and/or in the Agreement. TERMS AND CONDITIONS This document (the “Addendum”) includes additional terms and conditions that govern the Restricted Stock Units granted under the Plan if the Participant works and/or resides in one of the countries or jurisdictions listed below. If the Participant is a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which the Participant currently is residing and/or working, transfers employment and/or residency after the Grant Date or is considered a resident of another country for local law purposes, the Company shall, in its discretion, determine to what extent the terms and conditions contained herein shall apply to the Participant (or, in the event of the Participant’s relocation, the Company may establish alternative terms and conditions as may be necessary or advisable to accommodate such relocation). NOTIFICATIONS This document also includes information regarding exchange controls and certain other issues of which the Participant should be aware with respect to the Participant’s participation in the Plan. The information is based on the securities, exchange control and other laws in effect in the respective countries as of January 2019. Such laws are often complex and change frequently. As a result, the Participant should not rely on the information noted in this document as the only source of information relating to the consequences of the Participant’s participation in the Plan because the information may be out of date by the time the Participant vests in Restricted Stock Units or sells shares or Stock acquired under the Plan. In addition, the information contained herein is general in nature and may not apply to the Participant’s particular situation, and the Company is not in a position to assure the Participant of a particular result. Accordingly, the Participant should seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in the Participant’s country may apply to his or her situation. If the Participant is a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which the Participant currently is residing and/or working, transfers employment and/or residency after the Grant Date or is considered a resident of another country for local law purposes, the notifications contained herein may not apply to the Participant. European Union (“EU”) / European Economic Area (“EEA”) Data Privacy. If the Participant resides and/or performs services in the EU/EEA, Paragraph 12 of the Agreement shall be replaced with the following: The Company, with its registered address at One Village Center Drive, Van Buren Township, Michigan 48111, U.S.A., is the controller responsible for the processing of the Participant’s personal data by the Company and the third parties noted below. (a)Data Collection and Usage. Pursuant to applicable data protection laws, the Participant is hereby notified that the Company collects, processes and uses certain personally-identifiable information about the Participant for the legitimate interest of implementing, administering and managing the Plan and generally administering equity awards; specifically, including the Participant’s name, home address, email address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, citizenship, job title, any shares of Stock or directorships held in the Company, and details of all Restricted Stock Units, options or any other entitlement to shares of Stock awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, or outstanding in the Participant’s favor, which the Company receives from the Participant or the Employer (“Personal Data”). In granting the Restricted Stock Units under the Plan, the Company will collect Personal Data for purposes of allocating shares of Stock and 13 implementing, administering and managing the Plan. The Company’s legal basis for the collection, processing and use of Personal Data is the necessity of the processing for the Company to perform its contractual obligations under this Agreement and the Plan and the Company’s legitimate business interests of managing the Plan, administering employee equity awards and complying with its contractual and statutory obligations. (b)Stock Plan Administration Service Provider. The Company transfers Personal Data to Fidelity Stock Plan Services, an independent service provider based in the United States, which assists the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. In the future, the Company may select a different service provider and share Personal Data with another company that serves in a similar manner. The Company’s service provider will open an account for the Participant to receive and trade shares of Stock. The Participant will be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with the service provider, which is a condition to the Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan. The processing of Personal Data will take place through both electronic and non-electronic means. Personal Data will only be accessible by those individuals requiring access to it for purposes of implementing, administering and operating the Plan. (c)International Data Transfers. The Company and its service providers are based in the United States. The Participant’s country or jurisdiction may have different data privacy laws and protections than the United States. For example, the European Commission has issued only a limited adequacy finding with respect to the United States that applies only to the extent companies register for the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield program. Alternatively, an appropriate level of protection can be achieved by implementing safeguards such as the Standard Contractual Clauses adopted by the EU Commission. Personal Data will be transferred from the EU/EEA to the Company and onward from the Company to any of its service providers based on the EU Standard Contractual Clauses or, if applicable, registration with the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield program. The Participant may request a copy of such appropriate safeguards by contacting his or her local human resources department. (d)Data Retention. The Company will use Personal Data only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the Participant’s participation in the Plan or as required to comply with legal or regulatory obligations, including tax and securities laws.

The Participant expressly recognizes that the Participant’s participation in the Plan and the Company’s grant of the Restricted Stock Units does not constitute an employment relationship between the Participant and the Company.

As such, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Company may, in its sole discretion, amend and/or discontinue the Participant’s participation in the Plan at any time and without any liability. The value of the Restricted Stock Units is an extraordinary item of compensation outside the scope of the Participant’s employment contract, if any. The Restricted Stock Units are not part of the Participant’s regular or expected compensation for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits, or any similar payments, which are the exclusive obligations of Visteon-Mexico. Portugal English Language. The Participant hereby expressly declares that he or she has full knowledge of the English language and has read, understood and fully accepts and agrees with the terms and conditions established in the Plan and the Agreement.

Romania No country-specific provisions. Russia 16 Transaction Outside of Russia. The Participant understands that accepting the Restricted Stock Units and the terms and conditions of the Agreement will result in a contract between the Participant and the Company completed in the United States and that the Agreement is governed by U.S. law. The Participant understands and acknowledges that any shares of Stock issued under the Plan shall be delivered to the Participant through a brokerage account maintained outside Russia. The Participant understands that the Participant may hold shares of Stock in a brokerage account outside Russia; however, in no event will shares of Stock issued to the Participant and/or share certificates or other instruments be delivered to the Participant in Russia. The Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Participant is not permitted to sell or otherwise transfer the shares of Stock directly to other Russian legal entities or individuals. Finally, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Participant may sell or otherwise transfer the shares of Stock only outside Russia. Securities Law Information. The Agreement, including these specific provisions for Russia, the Plan and other incidental communication materials distributed in connection with the Plan do not constitute advertising or an offering of securities in Russia.

Slovakia No country-specific provisions. South Korea No country-specific provisions. Spain Acknowledgement of Discretionary Nature of the Plan; No Vested Rights. In accepting the grant of Restricted Stock Units, the Participant acknowledges that he or she consents to participation in the Plan and has received a copy of the Plan. The Participant understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and in its sole discretion granted Restricted Stock Units under the Plan to individuals who may be employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates throughout the world. The decision is a limited decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any grant will not economically or otherwise bind the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates on an ongoing basis. Consequently, the Participant understands that the Restricted Stock Units are granted on the assumption and condition that the Restricted Stock Units and the shares of Stock acquired upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units shall not become a part of any employment contract (either with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever. In addition, the Participant understands that this grant would not be made to the Participant but for the assumptions and conditions referenced above; thus, the Participant acknowledges and freely accepts that should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, the grant of the Restricted Stock Units shall be null and void. The Participant understands and agrees that, as a condition of the grant of the Restricted Stock Units, the Participant’s termination of employment for any reason (including the reasons listed below) will automatically result in the loss of the Restricted Stock Units to the extent the Restricted Stock Units have not vested as of date that the Participant ceases active employment. In particular, unless otherwise provided in the Agreement, the Participant understands and agrees that any unvested Restricted Stock Units as of the date the Participant ceases active employment will be forfeited without entitlement to the underlying shares of Stock or to any amount of indemnification in the event of the termination of 17 employment by reason of, but not limited to, resignation, disciplinary dismissal adjudged to be with cause, disciplinary dismissal adjudged or recognized to be without cause, individual or collective dismissal on objective grounds, whether adjudged or recognized to be with or without cause, material modification of the terms of employment under Article 41 of the Workers’ Statute, relocation under Article 40 of the Workers’ Statute, Article 50 of the Workers’ Statute, unilateral withdrawal by the Employer and under Article 10.3 of the Royal Decree 1382/1985. The Participant acknowledges that the Participant has read and specifically accepts the conditions referred to in the Agreement regarding the impact of a termination of employment on the Participant’s Restricted Stock Units. Taiwan Securities Law Information. The Restricted Stock Units and any shares of Stock to be issued pursuant to the Plan are available only for employees. The grant of Restricted Stock Units is not a public offer of securities by a Taiwanese company. Thailand No country-specific provisions. Tunisia Form of Settlement. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the Restricted Stock Units shall be settled in the form of a cash payment. United Kingdom Withholding of Taxes. Without limitation to Paragraph 6 of the Agreement, the Participant hereby agrees that the Participant is liable for all Tax-Related Items and hereby covenants to pay all such Tax-Related Items, as and when requested by the Company, the Employer or by Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs (“HMRC”) (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority). The Participant also hereby agrees to indemnify and keep indemnified the Company and the Employer against any Tax-Related Items that they are required to pay or withhold on the Participant’s behalf or have paid or will pay to HMRC (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant is a director or executive officer of the Company (within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act), the Participant may not be able to indemnify the Company or the Employer for the amount of any income tax not collected from or paid by the Participant, as it may be considered a loan. In this case, the amount of any income tax not collected within 90 days after the end of the U.K. tax year in which the event giving rise to the Tax-Related Items occurs may constitute an additional benefit to the Participant on which additional income tax and national insurance contribution may be payable. The Participant understands that the Participant will be responsible for reporting and paying any income tax due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self- assessment regime and for reimbursing the Company and/or the Employer for the value of any employee national insurance contribution due on this additional benefit, which may be recovered from the Participant’s by the Company or the Employer by any of the means referred to in Paragraph 6 of the Agreement. Exclusion of Claim. The Participant hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Participant will have no entitlement to compensation or damages insofar as such entitlement arises or may arise from the Participant ceasing to have rights under or to be entitled to Restricted Stock Units, whether or not as a result of termination of employment (whether such termination is in breach of contract or otherwise), or from the loss of diminution in value of the Restricted Stock Units. Upon the grant of the Restricted Stock Units, the Participant shall be deemed to have waived irrevocably such entitlement. 18 19 EXHIBIT 10.9.1 Schedule identifying substantially identical agreements, between Visteon Corporation ("Visteon") and each of the persons named below, to the Change in Control Agreement constituting Exhibit 10.9 to the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Visteon for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.
