SECTION 1 — REGISTRANT’S BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS
Item 1.02. Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
     On July 26, 2010, Visteon Corporation (the “Company”), Visteon Global Technologies, Inc., Automotive Components Holdings, LLC, (“ACH”) and Ford Motor Company (“Ford”) entered into an agreement to terminate each of (i) the Master Services Agreement, dated September 30, 2005 (as amended, the “MSA”), between the Company and ACH; and (ii) the Visteon Salaried Employee Lease Agreement, dated October 1, 2005 (as amended, the “SELA”), between the Company and ACH, (iii) the Visteon Hourly Employee Lease Agreement, dated October 1, 2005 (as amended, the “HELA”), between the Company and ACH. Each of the MSA, SELA and HELA will terminate at 11:59 p.m. Dearborn, Michigan time on August 31, 2010. The termination of these agreements is subject to the approval of the U.S. bankruptcy court as well as other conditions.
     In September 2005, the Company entered into several restructuring transactions pursuant to which it transferred 23 of its North American facilities, and certain other related assets and liabilities, to ACH, an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Subsequently, the Company sold ACH to Ford. In connection with the sale, the Company agreed to lease the services of its employees who worked at the transferred plants to ACH as well as to provide certain additional services related thereto, pursuant the terms of the MSA, SELA and HELA. In order to allow the Company to focus on its core business, the Company informed ACH that, absent a termination agreement, it would reject the foregoing agreements through the bankruptcy process. However, to avoid the adverse impacts of such rejections and resulting claims and provide for a mutually agreeable and orderly transfer of the leased employees from the Company to ACH, the parties negotiated the termination of the agreements, including various transition arrangements.
     Ford is one of the Company’s largest customers and Ford, the Company and ACH engage in numerous commercial transactions. Ford is also the sole lender in respect of the Company’s asset-based revolving loan facility.
