Exhibit 10.2

CHANGE IN CONTROL AGREEMENT

THIS AGREEMENT, which is effective as of September 30, 2012 (the “Effective Date”), is made by and between Visteon Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and Timothy D. Leuliette (the “Executive”).

WHEREAS, the Company considers it essential to the best interests of its stockholders to foster the continued employment of key management personnel;

WHEREAS, the Board recognizes that, as is the case with many publicly held corporations, the possibility of a Change in Control exists and that such possibility, and the uncertainty and questions which it may raise among management, may result in the departure or distraction of management personnel to the detriment of the Company and its stockholders;

WHEREAS, the Board has determined that appropriate steps should be taken to reinforce and encourage the continued attention and dedication of members of the Company’s management, including the Executive, to their assigned duties without distraction in the face of potentially disturbing circumstances arising from the possibility of a Change in Control; and

WHEREAS, the Executive has entered into an employment agreement with the Company of even date herewith (the “Employment Agreement”) pursuant to which the parties agreed to enter into this Agreement;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants herein contained, the Company and the Executive hereby agree as follows:

1. Defined Terms. The definitions of capitalized terms used in this Agreement are provided in the last Section hereof.

2. Term of Agreement. The Term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue in effect thereafter until terminated by a resolution adopted by a majority of the Board, provided that:

(A) No termination by such resolution of the Board will be effective until the date specified by the Board in the resolution (a “Board Specified Termination Date”), which date may not be earlier than two years after the date on which the resolution is adopted;

(B) If a Change in Control occurs before a Board Specified Termination Date has occurred, the Term of this Agreement shall continue at least through the second anniversary of the first such Change in Control to so occur; and

(C) No termination of this Agreement shall reduce or terminate the Executive’s right to receive, or continue to receive, any payments or benefits that became payable with respect to a termination of the Executive’s employment that occurred before the effective date of the termination of this Agreement.

3. Company’s Covenants Summarized. In order to induce the Executive to remain in the employ of the Company and in consideration of the Executive’s covenants set forth in Section 4 hereof, the Company agrees, under the conditions described herein, to pay the Executive the Severance Payments and the other payments and benefits described herein. Except as provided in Section 9.1 hereof, no Severance Payments shall be payable under this Agreement unless there shall have been (or, under the terms of the second sentence of Section 6.1 hereof, there shall be deemed to have been) a termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company following a Change in Control and during the Term. This Agreement shall not be construed as creating an express or implied contract of employment and, except as otherwise agreed in writing between the Executive and the Company, the Executive shall not have any right to be retained in the employ of the Company.

4. The Executive’s Covenants.

4.1 The Executive agrees that, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, in the event of a Potential Change in Control during the Term, the Executive will remain in the employ of the Company until the earliest of (i) a date which is six months from the date of such Potential Change of Control, (ii) the date of a Change in Control, (iii) the date of termination by the Executive of the Executive’s employment for Good Reason or by reason of death, Disability or Retirement, or (iv) the termination by the Company of the Executive’s employment for any reason.

4.2 The Executive agrees that, during the Term and for a period of twelve months after a termination of the Executive’s employment following a Change in Control under circumstances entitling the Executive to payments and benefits under Section 6 hereof, the Executive will not, without the prior written consent of the Chairman of the Board or the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, (i) engage in or perform any services of a similar nature to those performed by the Executive at the Company for any other corporation or business which is primarily engaged in the design, manufacture, development, promotion or sale of climate, instrument and door panels or electronic components for the automotive industry within North America, Latin America, Asia, Australia or Europe in competition with the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries or Affiliates, or any joint ventures to which the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries or Affiliates are a party (“Competing Business”), (ii) otherwise engage in any Competing Business, including, without limitation, by diverting or attempting to divert from the Company, or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, any business whatsoever, by influencing or attempting to influence, or soliciting or attempting to solicit any of the customers of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates (or any potential customers with whom the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates had business contact in the preceding year) with whom Executive may have dealt at any time during his employment by Company, or concerning whom Executive obtained information described in Section 4.3 through his employment with the Company; (iv) recruit, solicit, hire, attempt to hire or assist any other person to hire any employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates or any person who was an employee of any of the foregoing in the six months preceding Executive’s Date of Termination, or solicit or encourage any employee of any of the foregoing to terminate employment; or (v) otherwise assist any person in any way to do, or attempt to do, anything prohibited by the foregoing.

4.3 During the Term and thereafter, the Executive will not (other than in the regular course and in furtherance of the Company’s business) divulge, furnish or make available to any person any confidential knowledge, information or materials, whether tangible or intangible, regarding proprietary matters relating to the Company, including, without limitation, trade secrets, customer and supplier lists, pricing policies, operational methods, marketing plans or strategies, product development techniques or plans, business acquisition or disposition plans, new personnel employment plans, methods of manufacture, technical processes, designs and design projects, inventions and research projects and financial budgets and forecasts of the Company except (a) information which at the time is available to others in the business or generally known to the public other than as a result of disclosure by the Executive not permitted hereunder, and (b) when required to do so by a court of competent jurisdiction, by any governmental agency or by any administrative body or legislative body (including a committee thereof) with purported or apparent jurisdiction to order the Executive to divulge, disclose or make accessible such information.

4.4 The Executive agrees that the Executive will not at any time make, publish or communicate to any person or entity or in any public forum any defamatory or disparaging remarks, comments or statements concerning the Company or its businesses, or any of its employees, officers, members of its Board and existing and prospective customers, suppliers, investors and other associated third parties. The Company agrees that neither the Company through any public statement nor any of its members of the Board or officers will at any time make, publish or communicate to any person or entity or in any public forum any defamatory or disparaging remarks, comments or statements concerning the Executive or his businesses. The obligation set forth in this Section 4.4 does not, in any way, restrict or impede the Executive or the Company (including its members of the Board and officers) from exercising protected rights to the extent that such rights cannot be waived by agreement or from complying with any applicable law or regulation or a valid order of a court of competent jurisdiction or an authorized government agency, provided that such compliance does not exceed that required by the law, regulation or order. The Executive shall promptly provide written notice of any such order, applicable to him, to the Board and to the Company’s General Counsel.

5. Compensation Other Than Severance Payments.

5.1 Following a Change in Control and during the Term, during any period that the Executive fails to perform the Executive’s full-time duties with the Company as a result of incapacity due to physical or mental illness, the Company shall pay to the Executive an amount that when added to the amount paid to the Executive under the Company’s short-term and/or long-term disability plans, will result in the Executive receiving his full salary at the rate in effect at the commencement of any such period, together with all compensation and benefits payable to the Executive under the terms of any other compensation or benefit plan, program or arrangement maintained by the Company during such period, until the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for Disability.

5.2 If the Executive’s employment shall be terminated for any reason following a Change in Control and during the Term, the Company shall pay the Executive’s full salary to the Executive through the Date of Termination at the rate in effect immediately prior to the Date of Termination or, if higher, the rate in effect immediately prior to the first occurrence of an event or circumstance constituting Good Reason, together with all compensation and benefits payable to the Executive through the Date of Termination under the terms of the Company’s compensation and benefit plans, programs or arrangements as in effect immediately prior to the Date of Termination or, if more favorable to the Executive, as in effect immediately prior to the first occurrence of an event or circumstance constituting Good Reason.

5.3 If the Executive’s employment shall be terminated for any reason following a Change in Control and during the Term, the Company shall pay to the Executive the Executive’s normal post-termination compensation and benefits as such payments become due. Such post-termination compensation and benefits shall be determined under, and paid in accordance with, the Company’s retirement, insurance and other compensation or benefit plans, programs and arrangements as in effect immediately prior to the Date of Termination or, if more favorable to the Executive, as in effect immediately prior to the occurrence of the first event or circumstance constituting Good Reason.

6. Severance Payments.

6.1 If the Executive’s employment is terminated on or within two years following a Change in Control, other than (i) by the Company for Cause, (ii) by reason of death or Disability, or (iii) by the Executive without Good Reason, the Company shall pay the Executive the amounts, and provide the Executive the benefits, described in this Section 6.1 (“Severance Payments”), and Section 6.2, in addition to any payments and benefits to which the Executive is entitled under Section 5 hereof. For purposes of this Agreement, the Executive’s employment shall be deemed to have been terminated following a Change in Control by the Company without Cause or by the Executive with Good Reason, if (a) the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause prior to a Change in Control (whether or not a Change in Control ever occurs) and such termination was at the request or direction of a Person who has indicated an intention or taken steps reasonably calculated to effect a Change in Control, or (b) the Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason prior to a Change in Control (whether or not a Change in Control ever occurs) and the circumstance or event which constitutes Good Reason occurs at the request or direction of such Person. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Severance Payments shall be payable to the Executive if and only if the Executive signs and does not revoke a release of claims agreement in a form provided by the Company (the “Release”), and the Release becomes effective and irrevocable no later than the 60th day following the Date of Termination. If these conditions are not satisfied, then Executive will forfeit any right to the Severance Payments. To become effective and irrevocable, the Release must be executed by the Executive and any revocation periods (as required by statute, regulation, or otherwise) must have expired without Executive having revoked the Release.

(A) In lieu of any further salary payments to the Executive for periods subsequent to the Date of Termination, the Company shall pay to the Executive, on the first day of the seventh month following the month in which occurs the Executive’s Separation from Service, a lump sum severance payment, in cash, equal to two and one half times the sum of (i) the Executive’s base salary as in effect immediately prior to the Date of Termination or, if higher, in effect immediately prior to the first occurrence of an event or circumstance constituting Good Reason, and (ii) the Executive’s target annual bonus pursuant to any annual bonus or incentive plan maintained by the Company in respect of the fiscal year in which occurs the Date of Termination or, if higher, the fiscal year in which occurs the first event or circumstance constituting Good Reason. The amount payable pursuant to this Section 6.1(A) shall be in lieu of any cash severance or salary continuation benefit payable to the Executive under any other plan, policy or program of the Company or any of its Affiliates (for which the Executive shall be deemed ineligible if amounts are payable hereunder) or any written employment agreement between the Executive and the Company or any of its Affiliates.

(B) Subject to the limitations specified below in this Section 6.1(B), for the 18 month period immediately following the Date of Termination, the Company shall arrange to provide the Executive and his dependents life, accident and health insurance benefits substantially similar to those provided to the Executive and his dependents immediately prior to the Date of Termination or, if more favorable to the Executive, those provided to the Executive and his dependents immediately prior to the first occurrence of an event or circumstance constituting Good Reason. The Company will provide these life and accident insurance benefits at no greater cost to the Executive than the cost to the Executive immediately prior to the date or occurrence specified in the first sentence of this Section 6.1(B). The Company will either pay directly, or reimburse the Executive for, the entire cost otherwise payable by the Executive for these health insurance benefits. Unless the Executive consents to a different method (after taking into account the effect of such method on the calculation of “parachute payments” pursuant to Section 6.2 hereof), such life, accident and health insurance benefits shall be provided through a third-party insurer and the premiums for that insurance (to the extent paid directly by the Company or reimbursed by the Company to the Executive) 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 direct payment or reimbursement an amount sufficient to cover the amount of required withholding. Benefits otherwise receivable by the Executive pursuant to this Section 6.1(B) 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 18 month period following the Executive’s termination of employment (and any such benefits received by or made available to the Executive shall be reported to the Company by the Executive); provided, however, that the Company shall reimburse the Executive for the excess, if any, of the cost of such benefits to the Executive over such cost immediately prior to the Date of Termination or, if more favorable to the Executive, the first occurrence of an event or circumstance constituting Good Reason. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6.1(B) to the contrary, with respect to the first six months following the Executive’s Separation from Service, if the premiums payable by the Company for group term life insurance on the Executive’s life exceeds the amount of the “limited payments” exemption set forth in Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(v)(B) of the Income Tax Regulations (or any successor provision thereto), then, to the extent required in order to comply with Code Section 409A, the Executive, in advance, shall pay to the Company an amount equal to the premiums for any such life insurance policy, other than with respect to life insurance coverage to which the Executive would be entitled independent of this Agreement. Promptly following the end of such six month period, the Company will make a cash payment to the Executive equal to the difference between the aggregate amount paid by the Executive for such coverage and the amount that the Executive would have paid for such life insurance coverage if such cost had been determined pursuant to this Section 6.1(B) other than the preceding sentence.

(C) Unless payable to the Executive under the terms of any annual incentive plan, the Company shall pay to the Executive, on the first day of the seventh month following the month in which occurs the Executive’s Separation from Service, a lump sum amount, in cash, equal to the sum of (i) any unpaid annual bonus which has been allocated or awarded to the Executive for a completed fiscal year preceding the Date of Termination under any such plan and which, as of the Date of Termination, is contingent only upon the continued employment of the Executive to a subsequent date, and (ii) a pro rata portion of the annual bonus awarded to the Executive for the fiscal year in which the Date of Termination occurs, calculated by multiplying the award that the Executive would have earned on the last day of the fiscal year, assuming the achievement, at the target level, of the individual and corporate performance goals established with respect to the annual bonus, by the fraction obtained by dividing the number of days during such fiscal year through the Date of Termination by 365. Notwithstanding the forgoing, if and to the extent the Executive had elected to defer receipt of any such unpaid annual bonus, and if the Executive’s deferral election is irrevocable as of the Date of Termination for purposes of Code Section 409A, the amount calculated above shall be credited to the Executive’s account under the applicable deferred compensation plan in lieu of being distributed directly to the Executive.

(D) The benefits then accrued by or payable to the Executive under the Company’s 2010 Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, 2010 Pension Parity Plan, Savings Parity Plan or any successor to any such plan, and the benefits then accrued by or payable to the Executive under any other nonqualified plan providing supplemental retirement or deferred compensation benefits shall become fully vested as of the Date of Termination notwithstanding any eligibility conditions that would otherwise apply with respect to such benefits and the benefit, as so vested, will be paid in accordance with the terms of the applicable plan or program.

(E) The Company shall reimburse the Executive for expenses incurred for outplacement services suitable to the Executive’s position for a period of twelve months following the Executive’s Separation from Service (or, if earlier, until the first acceptance by the Executive of an offer of employment) in an amount not exceeding $50,000.

6.2 Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, in the event that any payment or benefit received or to be received by the Executive in connection with a Change in Control or the termination of the Executive’s employment (whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other plan, arrangement or agreement with the Company, any Person whose actions result in a Change in Control or any Person affiliated with the Company or such Person) (all such payments and benefits, including the Severance Payments, being hereinafter called “Total Payments”) would be subject (in whole or part), to the Excise Tax, the Total Payments shall be reduced to the extent necessary so that no portion of the Total Payments is subject to the Excise Tax but only if (i) the net amount of such Total Payments, as so reduced (and after subtracting the net amount of federal, state and local income taxes on such reduced Total Payments) is greater than or equal to (ii) the net amount of such Total Payments without such reduction (but after subtracting the net amount of federal, state and local income taxes on such Total Payments and the amount of Excise Tax to which the Executive would be subject in respect of such unreduced Total Payments).

(A) The reduction of Total Payments under this Section 6.2, if applicable, shall be made by first reducing any Total Payments due under Section 6.1(A) hereof, and then any Total Payments due under Section 6.1(C) hereof, and then any Total Payments due under Section 6.1(E) hereof, and then any other Total Payments due in the following order: (i) reduction of cash Total Payments, (ii) cancellation of accelerated vesting of performance-based equity awards (based on the reverse order of the date of grant), (iii) cancellation of accelerated vesting of other equity awards (based on the reverse order of the date of grant), and (iv) reduction of any other Total Payments due to the Executive (with benefits or payments in any group having different payment terms being reduced on a pro-rata basis).

(B) For purposes of determining whether and the extent to which the Total Payments will be subject to the Excise Tax, (i) no portion of the Total Payments the receipt or enjoyment of which the Executive shall have waived at such time and in such manner as not to constitute a “payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b) of the Code shall be taken into account, (ii) no portion of the Total Payments shall be taken into account which, in the opinion of tax counsel (“Tax Counsel”) reasonably acceptable to the Executive and selected by the accounting firm (the “Auditor”) which was, immediately prior to the Change in Control, the Company’s independent auditor (A) does not constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code (including by reason of Section 280G(b)(4)(A) of the Code) or (B) constitutes reasonable compensation for services actually rendered, within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(4)(B) of the Code, in excess of the Base Amount allocable to such reasonable compensation, and (iii) the value of any non-cash benefit or any deferred payment or benefit included in the Total Payments shall be determined by the Auditor in accordance with the principles of Sections 280G(d)(3) and (4) of the Code.

(C) At the time that payments are made under this Agreement, the Company shall provide the Executive with a written statement setting forth the manner in which such payments were calculated and the basis for such calculations including, without limitation, any opinions or other advice the Company has received from Tax Counsel, the Auditor or other advisors or consultants (and any such opinions or advice which are in writing shall be attached to the statement).

6.3 The payments provided in subsections (A) and (C) of Section 6.1 hereof shall be made on the first day of the seventh month following the month in which occurs the Executive’s Separation from Service. At the time that payments are made under this Agreement, the Company shall provide the Executive with a written statement setting forth the manner in which such payments were calculated and the basis for such calculations including, without limitation, any opinions or other advice the Company has received from Tax Counsel, the Auditor or other advisors or consultants (and any such opinions or advice which are in writing shall be attached to the statement).

6.4 The Company also shall reimburse the Executive for all legal fees and expenses incurred by the Executive in disputing in good faith any issue hereunder relating to the termination of the Executive’s employment (provided that the Executive prevails on at least one material claim disputed by the Company), in seeking in good faith to obtain or enforce any benefit or right provided by this Agreement (provided that the Executive prevails on at least one material claim disputed by the Company) or in connection with any tax audit or proceeding to the extent attributable to the application of Section 4999 of the Code to any payment or benefit provided hereunder. Such payments shall be made within five business days after delivery of the Executive’s written requests for payment accompanied with such evidence of fees and expenses incurred as the Company reasonably may require, or if required in order to comply with Section 409A of the Code, the first day of the seventh month following the month in which occurs the Executive’s Separation from Service; provided that no reimbursement pursuant to this Section 6.4 shall be made later than the end of the calendar year following the calendar year in which such fee or expense was incurred.

7. Termination Procedures.

7.1 Notice of Termination. After a Change in Control and during the Term, any purported termination of the Executive’s employment (other than by reason of death) shall be communicated by written Notice of Termination from one party hereto to the other party hereto in accordance with Section 10 hereof. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Notice of Termination” shall mean a notice which shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of the Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated. Further, a Notice of Termination for Cause is required to include a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than three-quarters of the entire membership of the Board at a meeting of the Board which was called and held for the purpose of considering such termination (after reasonable notice to the Executive and an opportunity for the Executive, together with the Executive’s counsel, to be heard before the Board) finding that, in the good faith opinion of the Board, the Executive was guilty of conduct set forth in clause (i) or (ii) of the definition of Cause herein, and specifying the particulars thereof in detail.

7.2 Date of Termination. “Date of Termination,” with respect to any purported termination of the Executive’s employment after a Change in Control and during the Term, shall mean (i) if the Executive’s employment is terminated for Disability, 30 days after Notice of Termination is given (provided that the Executive shall not have returned to the full-time performance of the Executive’s duties during such 30 day period), and (ii) if the Executive’s employment is terminated for any other reason, the date specified in the Notice of Termination (which, in the case of a termination by the Company, shall not be less than 30 days (except in the case of a termination for Cause), and, in the case of a termination by the Executive, shall not be less than ten days nor more than 60 days, respectively, from the date such Notice of Termination is given).

8. No Mitigation. The Company agrees that, if the Executive’s employment with the Company terminates during the Term, the Executive is not required to seek other employment or to attempt in any way to reduce any amounts payable to the Executive by the Company pursuant to Section 6 hereof. Further, the amount of any payment or benefit provided for in this Agreement (other than Section 6.1(B) hereof) shall not be reduced by any compensation earned by the Executive as the result of employment by another employer, by retirement benefits, by offset against any amount claimed to be owed by the Executive to the Company, or otherwise.

9. Successors; Binding Agreement.

9.1 In addition to any obligations imposed by law upon any successor to the Company, the Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. If the successor to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company arises in connection with a transaction that constitutes a Change in Control Event (as defined for purposes of Code Section 409A), the failure of the Company to obtain such assumption and agreement prior to the effectiveness of any such succession shall be a breach of this Agreement and shall entitle the Executive to compensation from the Company in the same amount and on the same terms as the Executive would be entitled to hereunder if the Executive were to terminate the Executive’s employment for Good Reason after a Change in Control, except that, for purposes of implementing the foregoing, the date of the Change in Control Event (as defined for purposes of Code Section 409A) shall be deemed the Date of Termination. If the successor to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company arises in connection with a transaction that does not constitute a Change in Control Event (as defined for purposes of Code Section 409A), the failure of the Company to obtain such assumption and agreement prior to the effectiveness of such succession shall be a breach of this Agreement and, following the Executive’s Separation from Service, shall entitle the Executive to Compensation from the Company in the same amount and on the same terms as the Executive would be entitled to hereunder if the Executive were to terminate the Executive’s employment for Good Reason after a Change in Control.

9.2 This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. If the Executive shall die while any amount would still be payable to the Executive hereunder (other than amounts which, by their terms, terminate upon the death of the Executive) if the Executive had continued to live, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to the executors, personal representatives or administrators of the Executive’s estate.

10. Notices. For the purpose of this Agreement, notices and all other communications provided for in the Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered or mailed by United States registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed, if to the Executive, to the address shown as the Executive’s home address in the books and records of the Company and, if to the Company, to the address set forth below, or to such other address as either party may have furnished to the other in writing in accordance herewith, except that notice of change of address shall be effective only upon actual receipt:

To the Company:

Visteon Corporation

One Village Center Drive

Van Buren Township, MI 48111

Attention: General Counsel

11. Miscellaneous. Subject to Section 2 hereof, no provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by the Executive and such officer as may be specifically designated by the Board. No waiver by either party hereto at any time of any breach by the other party hereto of, or of any lack of compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time. This Agreement supersedes any other agreements or representations, oral or otherwise, express or implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof which have been made by either party; provided, however, that this Agreement shall supersede and control over any agreement setting forth the terms and conditions of the Executive’s employment with the Company (including the Employment Agreement) only in the event that the Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated on or following a Change in Control (or, before a Change in Control under the circumstances described in clause (a) or (b) of the first paragraph of Section 6.1), by the Company other than for Cause or by the Executive other than for Good Reason; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that Section 20 (Indemnification) and Section 21 (Liability Insurance) of the Employment Agreement shall control in all events. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware. All references to sections of the Exchange Act or the Code shall be deemed also to refer to any successor provisions to such sections. Any payments provided for hereunder shall be paid net of any applicable withholding required under federal, state or local law and any additional withholding to which the Executive has agreed. In addition, if prior to the date of payment of the Severance Payments hereunder, the taxes imposed under Sections 3101, 3121(a) and 3121(v)(2), where applicable, become due, the Company may provide for an immediate payment of the amount needed to pay the Executive’s portion of such tax (plus an amount equal to the taxes that will be due on such amount) and the Executive’s Severance Payments shall be reduced accordingly. The obligations of the Company and the Executive under this Agreement which by their nature may require either partial or total performance after the expiration of the Term (including, without limitation, those under Section 6 hereof) shall survive such expiration.

12. Section 409A.

12.1 The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with Code Section 409A and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder (collectively and for purposes under this Agreement, “Code Section 409A”) and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted to be in compliance therewith. To the extent that any provision hereof is modified in order to comply with Code Section 409A, such modification shall be made in good faith and shall, to the maximum extent reasonably possible, maintain the original intent and economic benefit to the Executive and the Company of the applicable provision without violating the provisions of Code Section 409A. In no event whatsoever shall the Company be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalty that may be imposed on the Executive by Code Section 409A or for damages for failing to comply with Code Section 409A.

12.2 A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amount or benefit upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a Separation from Service and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean a Separation from Service. In the event that any payment to the Executive is conditioned upon the Executive’s providing a Release, which payment is considered “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Code Section 409A, and which may be paid in either of two taxable years of the Executive depending on the date such release of claims becomes irrevocable, such payment shall be made on the later of January 8 of the later such taxable year or ten days after the date such release of claims becomes irrevocable. Notwithstanding any other payment schedule provided herein to the contrary (including, without limitation, under Section 6.1), if the

Executive is deemed on the date of termination to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), then with regard to any payment or the provision of any benefit that is considered “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Code Section 409A payable on account of a Separation from Service, that would, but for this sentence, be paid or provided before the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of the Executive’s Separation from Service, such payment or benefit shall be made on the date which is the earlier of (A) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of the Executive’s Separation from Service, and (B) the date of the Executive’s death, to the extent required under Code Section 409A. Upon the expiration of the foregoing delay period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this Section (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such delay) shall be paid or reimbursed to the Executive in a lump sum, and all remaining payments and benefits due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein.

12.3 To the extent that reimbursements or other in-kind benefits under this Agreement constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A, (i) all expenses or other reimbursements hereunder shall be made on or prior to the last day of the taxable year following the taxable year in which such expenses were incurred by the Executive, (ii) any right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, and (iii) no such reimbursement, expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided in any taxable year shall in any way affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year.

12.4 For purposes of Code Section 409A, the Executive’s right to receive installment payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments. Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days, the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company.

12.5 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall any payment or benefit under this Agreement that constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A be subject to offset by any other amount unless otherwise permitted by Code Section 409A.

13. Validity. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.

14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.

15. Settlement of Disputes. All claims by the Executive for benefits under this Agreement shall be directed to and determined by the Board and shall be in writing. Any denial by the Board of a claim for benefits under this Agreement shall be delivered to the Executive in writing and shall set forth the specific reasons for the denial and the specific provisions of this Agreement relied upon. The Board shall afford a reasonable opportunity to the Executive for a review of the decision denying a claim and shall further allow the Executive to appeal to the Board a decision of the Board within 60 days after notification by the Board that the Executive’s claim has been denied. The Executive acknowledges that to avoid an additional tax on payments that may be payable or benefits that may be provided under this Agreement and that constitute deferred compensation that is not exempt from Section 409A of the Code, the Executive must make a reasonable, good faith effort to collect any payment or benefit to which the Executive believes the Executive is entitled hereunder no later than 90 days after the latest date upon which the payment could have been made or benefit provided under this Agreement, and if not paid or provided, must take further enforcement measures within 180 days after such latest date. Following any decision of the Board denying any claim of the Executive in whole or in part, including any appeal by the Executive therefrom, the Executive (and the Company) shall be entitled to pursue all legal and equitable remedies on a de novo basis in any court of competent jurisdiction with respect to any remaining dispute between the parties.
