VISTEON CORPORATION By: /s/ PETER J. PESTILLO ______________________________________ Peter J. Pestillo, Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and President Dated: May 19, 2000 5 Table of Contents FORD MOTOR COMPANY , 2000 Dear Fellow Ford Stockholder: In January of this year, we announced as one of our milestones the goal for Visteon to achieve independence. Towards achieving this goal, we established Visteon Corporation as a wholly-owned subsidiary and transferred to it the assets and liabilities comprising our automotive components and systems business. To complete the goal of independence, on , 2000, a special committee of our Board of Directors, pursuant to full Board authorization, approved a pro rata distribution (or spin-off) to Ford common and Class B stockholders of all shares of Visteon common stock owned by Ford. In the spin-off, you will receive shares of Visteon common stock for each share of Ford common or Class B stock that you held of record at the close of business on , 2000. Your current shares of Ford common or Class B stock will continue to represent your ownership position in Ford. We have concluded that the spin-off is in the best interests of Ford, the Visteon business and Ford stockholders, because: • as an independent company, Visteon will be better able to pursue business with non-Ford customers; • it will reduce Ford’s automotive assets and capital requirements; • it will provide Visteon’s management increased strategic flexibility and decision-making power, including the ability to manage Visteon’s product portfolio over the long-term based on Visteon’s own strategic objectives; • having two separate public companies will enable the financial markets to evaluate each company more effectively, thereby maximizing stockholder value over the long term for both Ford and Visteon; • separate management and ownership structures for Visteon will provide incentives to Visteon’s management and direct accountability to public investors; and • a spin-off allows Visteon to achieve independence in the shortest possible time. Shares of Visteon’s common stock trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “VC.” The enclosed information statement explains the spin-off in detail and provides important information regarding Visteon. We urge you to read it carefully. Please note that general stockholder approval is not required for the spin-off, and holders of Ford common and Class B stock are not required to take any action to participate in the spin-off. Thus, we are not asking you for a proxy. Very truly yours, William Clay Ford, Jr. Chairman of the Board Ford Motor Company Table of Contents VISTEON CORPORATION , 2000 Dear Visteon Stockholder: We welcome you as a “founding” stockholder of Visteon, which began trading publicly on a “when-issued” basis for the first time on , 2000. We are the world’s third largest supplier of automotive systems, modules and components. We have become a leader in the global automotive parts industry by capitalizing on the extensive experience we have gained as the largest supplier to Ford, the world’s largest producer of trucks and the second largest producer of cars and trucks combined. We have been the largest supplier of automotive parts to Ford for most of Ford’s history, and even as we continue to broaden our base of customers and products, we expect to continue

    THE HERTZ CORPORATION 225 Brae Boulevard Park Ridge, NJ 07656-0713 December 22, 2010 By email: [email protected] Ms. Elizabeth M. Murphy Secretary Securities and Exchange Commission 100 F Street, NE Washington, D.C. 20549-1090 Re: Proposing Release on Asset-Backed Securities (File No. S7-08-1O) Dear Ms. Murphy: The He11z Corporation ("Heliz") welcomes the opportunity to submit this letter in response to the request of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") for comments on the Asset Backed Securities proposal Release Nos. 33-9117 and 34-61858, dated April 7, 2010 (the "Proposing Release"). Heliz supports the Commission's efforts to implement rules that improve the transparency, usefulness and credibility of information provided to investors of asset-backed securities to bolster investor confidence in the domestic securitization markets. Given the impOliance of those markets to Hertz, and Hertz's experience in them, Heliz wanted to offer its perspective on certain aspects of the Proposing Release. Our letter is organized into three parts: (1) background on Heliz and its rental car securitization program; (2) structural and credit characteristics of rental car securitizations; and (3) a discussion of the potentially serious adverse effects of celiain of the Commission's proposals as applied to rental car securitizations, along with suggested changes to avoid causing unnecessary harm to Hertz and other non-financial companies that use special-purpose entities to securitize pools of "hard" assets actually used in their businesses, such as automobiles, in order to finance the operation of those businesses. Background The Hertz Corporation Hertz, a subsidiary of Hertz Global Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (NYSE: HTZ), is the largest worldwide airport general use car rental brand, operating from approximately 8,500 locations in 146 countries worldwide.
