(g)    Such other documents and certificates required to be delivered by the Sellers, the Subject Companies or the JV Companies pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
1.4    Adjustment of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall be adjusted at and after the Closing as follows:
(a)    Not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Sellers shall cause to be prepared and delivered to Buyer (i) a statement (the “Estimated Cash and Debt Statement”) setting forth the Estimated Closing Date Cash and Debt as of 11:59 p.m., Detroit time, on the Closing Date, prepared in accordance with the reference Cash and Debt statement attached as Schedule 1.4(a), which has been prepared in a manner consistent with the policies, procedures and methodologies used in the preparation of the Financial Information.
(b)    At the Closing:
(i)    If the Estimated Closing Date Cash and Debt set forth in the Estimated Cash and Debt Statement is a negative amount as of the Closing Date, the Purchase Price payable on the Closing Date shall be decreased by such amount.
(ii)    If the Estimated Closing Date Cash and Debt set forth in the Estimated Cash and Debt Statement is a positive amount, the Purchase Price payable on the Closing Date shall be increased by such amount.
(c)    Within 90 calendar days after the Closing Date, the Sellers will prepare and deliver to the Buyer a statement (the “Closing Cash and Debt Statement”) (i) setting forth the Closing Cash and Debt Amount, (ii) stating that such statement has been calculated on a basis consistent with the policies, procedures and methodologies used in the preparation of the Financial Information, and (iii) setting forth the amount of any required adjustments to the Purchase Price pursuant to this Section 1.4(c).

If, within the Statement Review Period, the Buyer disputes any item(s) on the Closing Cash and Debt Statement, the Buyer shall give Visteon written notice of such disagreement specifically identifying the item(s) and amount(s) in dispute and the basis for such dispute (the “C&D Dispute Notice”). The parties shall use reasonable efforts to reach agreement with respect to such disputed items within 15 calendar days following the delivery of the C&D Dispute Notice, or such longer period as may be agreed upon in writing by the parties (such period, the “Resolution Period”). Any item(s) on the Closing Cash and Debt Statement not specifically identified in writing as a disputed item before the end of the Statement Review Period shall be deemed to have been accepted by the Buyer and shall not be subject to any further dispute, review or change. If the parties fail to resolve any such disputes with respect to the Closing Cash and Debt Statement within the Resolution Period, the disputed item(s) shall be resolved and, as a result thereof, the amount of the Closing Date Cash and Debt shall be definitely and finally determined in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 1.4(f).
(f)    Disputes between the Sellers and the Buyer Representative relating to Section 1.4 of this Agreement that cannot be resolved by the parties in accordance with Section 1.4(e) shall be finally determined by an internationally-recognized firm of independent public accountants mutually agreed upon by Visteon and the Buyer (the “Accounting Firm”), which shall act as an expert as to accounting matters (and not as an arbitrator) and which shall issue a ruling that shall resolve any dispute and shall be binding and conclusive upon all parties. Visteon and the Buyer shall select, by mutual agreement, the Accounting Firm, and the Accounting Firm shall have agreed in writing to serve in such capacity pursuant to the terms herein described, within 15 calendar days following the end of the applicable Resolution Period. The resolution of any disputed item(s) and the determination of the Closing Date Cash and Debt shall be completed by the Accounting Firm within 30 calendar days following the date on which the dispute is submitted to it. The Accounting Firm’s determination of the Closing Date Cash and Debt shall be completed in a manner consistent with the policies, procedures and methodologies used in the preparation of the Financial Information. The fees and expenses associated with the Accounting Firm’s determination shall be allocated between Visteon, on the one hand, and the Buyer, on the other hand, in inverse proportion to their success on the matters resolved by the Accounting Firm, which proportionate allocations shall also be determined by the Accounting Firm at the time the determination of the Accounting Firm is rendered on the Closing Date Cash and Debt. The parties agree that the procedure set forth in this Section 1.4(f) for resolving disputes with respect to the Closing Date Cash and Debt shall be the sole and exclusive method for resolving disputes relating to Section 1.4 of this Agreement that the parties are unable to resolve in accordance with the procedures set forth in the preceding paragraph; provided, however, that a judgment on the determination made by the Accounting Firm pursuant to this Section 1.4(f) may be entered in and enforced by any court having jurisdiction thereover.

4



(g)    If the Closing Date Cash and Debt, as finally determined in accordance with this Section 1.4, is greater than the Estimated Closing Cash and Debt set forth on the Estimated Cash and Debt Statement (such difference, the “Cash and Debt Surplus”), the Buyer shall remit an amount equal to the Cash and Debt Surplus to Visteon.
(h)    If the Closing Date Cash and Debt, as finally determined in accordance with this Section 1.4, is less than the Estimated Closing Cash and Debt set forth on the Estimated Cash and Debt Statement (such difference, the “Cash and Debt Deficit”), Sellers shall remit an amount equal to the Cash and Debt Deficit to the Buyer.
(i)    Any payment to Visteon or the Buyer, as the case may be, based on the Closing Date Cash and Debt shall be made within three (3) Business Days following agreement on, or final determination of, the Closing Date Cash and Debt, in immediately available funds by (a) wire transfer to such bank account or accounts as Visteon (in the case of a Cash and Debt Surplus) may specify, or (b) wire transfer to such bank account or accounts as Buyer (in the case of a Cash and Debt Deficit) may specify. Any Cash and Debt Surplus shall be deemed to be an increase in the Purchase Price and any Cash and Debt Deficit shall be deemed to be a decrease in the Purchase Price
1.5    Purchase Price Allocation. Schedule 1.5 sets forth a preliminary determination of the amount of the Purchase Price to be allocated to each of the Subject Company Shares and the Intellectual Property. This preliminary allocation will be subject to such later adjustment or procedures as the Parties shall mutually determine. The Parties to this Agreement shall cooperate in preparing, executing and filing with each Taxing Authority all required information returns, including filing with the Internal Revenue Service all necessary information returns required by Section 1060 of the Tax Code.

(a)    Buyer shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed, on a basis reasonably consistent with past practice, any Tax Returns of a Subject Company for Tax periods that begin before the Closing Date and end after the Closing Date (collectively, the “Straddle Periods” and each a “Straddle Period”).

Visteon shall provide its comments to Buyer at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the due date of such returns, and the Buyer shall consider in good faith all such comments. Within fifteen (15)

25



days after the date on which Buyer pays any Taxes of a Subject Company with respect to any Straddle Period, the applicable Seller of such Subject Company, to the extent such Taxes have not been accrued or otherwise reserved for on the most recent balance sheet of such Subject Company that is prepared prior to the Closing Date, shall pay to Buyer the amount of such Taxes that relates to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date (the “Pre-Closing Tax Period”).
(b)    For purposes of this Agreement:
(v)    In the case of any gross receipts, income, franchise or similar Taxes (“Income Taxes”) that are payable with respect to a Straddle Period, the portion of such Taxes allocable to (A) the Pre-Closing Tax Period and (B) the portion of the Straddle Period beginning on the day next succeeding the Closing Date (the “Post-Closing Tax Period”) shall be determined on the basis of a deemed closing at the end of the Closing Date of the books and records of a Subject Company.
(vi)    In the case of any Taxes (other than Income Taxes) that are payable with respect to a Straddle Period, the portion of such Taxes allocable to the portion of the Straddle Period prior to the Closing Date shall be equal to the product of all such Taxes multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period from the commencement of the Straddle Period through and including the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Straddle Period; provided, however, that appropriate adjustments shall be made to reflect specific events that can be identified and specifically allocated as occurring on or prior to the Closing Date (in which case the applicable Seller shall be responsible for any Taxes related thereto) or occurring after the Closing Date (in which case, Buyer, Subject Company shall be responsible for any Taxes related thereto).
(c)    Buyer shall be responsible for (A) any and all Taxes with respect to the Pre-Closing Tax Period of any applicable Straddle Period to (but only to) the extent such Taxes have been accrued or otherwise reserved for on the most recent balance sheet of the applicable Subject Company that is prepared prior to the Closing Date and (B) any Taxes with respect to the Post-Closing Tax Period of a Straddle Period.
8.3    Cooperation on Tax Matters.
(d)    Buyer, Sellers and the Subject Companies shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by any party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Article 8 and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return, audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Buyer, Sellers, and the Subject Companies agree (i) to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to a Subject Company relating to any taxable period

26



beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by any party hereto, any extensions thereof) of the respective taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any taxing authority, and (ii) to give the other party reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if another party so requests, Buyer, a Seller, or a Subject Company, as the case may be, shall allow the requesting party to take possession of such books and records.
(e)    Buyer, Sellers, and the Subject Companies, further agree, upon request, to use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any governmental authority or any other person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including, but not limited to, with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby).
(f)    Visteon shall have the sole right to control and make all decisions regarding interests in any Tax audit or administrative or court proceeding relating to Tax Returns of a Subject Company that relate to taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date, provided, however, that (i) Visteon, Buyer, the applicable Seller, and the applicable Subject Company shall cooperate in the conduct of any audit or proceeding relating to such Tax Returns, (ii) Buyer shall have the right (but not the obligation) to participate in such audit or proceeding at Buyer’s expense, and (iii) Visteon shall not enter into any agreement with the relevant taxing authority pertaining to such Taxes without the written consent of Buyer, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or delayed.
(g)    Visteon shall keep Buyer informed of all developments on a timely basis, shall provide to Buyer (upon request) copies of any and all correspondence received from the taxing authority related to such Tax audit or proceeding and shall provide Buyer with the opportunity to attend conferences, hearings and other meetings with or involving the taxing authority and to review and provide comments with respect to written responses provided to the taxing authority with respect to such Tax audits or proceedings.
(h)    Refunds of Tax relating to periods ending prior to the Closing Date (or to that portion of a Straddle Period that is prior to Closing under the principles of Section 8.2) shall be the property of Visteon or the applicable Seller, but only to the extent that such refunds are not attributable to (i) net operating loss or other carrybacks from periods ending after the Closing Date, (ii) refund claims that are initiated by Buyer (provided that Buyer gives Visteon prior notice of such possible claim and Visteon declines to pursue such refund at its own expense) or (iii) refunds reflected on the most recent balance sheet of the applicable Subject Company that is prepared prior to the Closing Date. At the request of Visteon, Buyer shall prepare and file any claim for refund with respect to any Taxes relating to any taxable period (or portion thereof) ending prior to the Closing Date. Visteon shall be responsible for all costs incurred in the filing of such refund claim, and any refund of Taxes shall be the property of Visteon or the applicable Seller. All other refunds of Tax are the property of Buyer.

27



(i)    Any indemnity payment or payment of Tax by Visteon or the applicable Seller as a result of any audit or contest shall be reduced by the correlative amount, if any, by which any Tax of Buyer, or a Subject Company is actually reduced for periods ending after the Closing Date as a result thereof.
