all of the Ford Assigned Employees, as defined in Paragraph 2 below, or (b) the

absence of an inactive employee and the date any leave expires. Ford shall
finalize the list of Initial Ford Assigned Employees as of the Effective Date no

Ford shall update such list at least monthly for employee quits, retirements,
transfers from Ford facilities to Visteon's facilities, transfers from Visteon's
facilities to Ford facilities or transfers between hourly and salaried status at
Visteon, in connection with the invoice procedure specified in Section 8. The
Initial Ford Assigned Employees and any replacement employees under the process
described above, shall be known for purposes of this Agreement as the "Ford
Assigned Employees." Ford Assigned Employees and all other hourly employees

rights under the Ford-UAW CBA including rights to placement in Visteon or Ford
