On November 18, 2020, the board of directors (the "Board") of Visa Inc.

A press release announcing Ms. Rendle's appointment to the Board is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference.

The Board determined that Ms. Rendle is an independent director within the meaning of the New York Stock Exchange listing standards.

There are no arrangements or understandings between Ms. Rendle and any other persons pursuant to which she was selected as a director. There are no transactions involving the Company and Ms. Rendle that the Company would be required to report pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
