Provisions are made for estimated U.S. and non-U.S. income taxes, less available tax credits and deductions, which may be incurred on the remittance of
our basis differences in investments in foreign subsidiaries and corporate joint ventures not deemed to be indefinitely reinvested. Taxes have not been
provided on basis differences in investments primarily as a result of earnings in foreign subsidiaries and corporate joint ventures which are deemed
indefinitely reinvested of $2.8 billion and $3.0 billion at December 31, 2015 and 2014. Additional basis differences related to investments in
nonconsolidated Automotive China JVs exist of $4.1 billion at December 31, 2015 and 2014 primarily related to fresh-start reporting. Quantification of the
deferred tax liability, if any, associated with indefinitely reinvested basis differences is not practicable. The Non-U.S. deferred income tax benefit in the year
ended December 31, 2015 relates primarily to the release of valuation allowances in GME.
