ƒ In light of its agreement with lenders to extend maturity of the majority of its $10.7 bil revolver from 2011 to
2013, Ford could amass a meaningful cash cushion. Indeed, Ford’s decision to prepay a portion of its VEBA
obligations (on top of paying its December obligation entirely in cash) suggests that the company ended
2009 with a strong cash position.

FORD FOCUS REPRESENT SIGNIFICANT ADVANCE IN GLOBAL PLATFORM SHARING

AUTOMAKERS WORLDWIDE PUSHING FOR SCALE AND COMMONALITY

In our view, the strategic lever most impactful to differentiating performance over the mid-term is likely to be the quest for global scale and
commonality – especially as OEMs face the unintended consequences of scrappage programs in the form of potential pricing pressures and
sticky labor costs and capacity. Moreover, the competitive edge is likely to evolve from simply posting 1mn unit scale in key volume
platforms, to exploiting the scale through common engineering and parts specifications (not just purchasing volumes).

Global OEMs are evolving through three distinct phases in their search for scale and commonality of cost savings. In phase 1, scale-driven
procurement, OEMs sought bulk purchasing price discounts from suppliers. Rather then offering any 'win-win' solutions, OEMs threatened
to pull business from suppliers unless demands for price cuts were met. The global element was not focused around engineering
commonality, but simply a brute threat that if supplier fails to cut price in one region, the OEM would punish the supplier by taking away
business in another region. This approach was first launched in the early 1990s at GM and then VW (brought over by Jose Ignacio Lopez
de Arriortua, whom VW hired away from GM). While saving up to 20% on purchased parts, with annual price downs of 1 to 2 percent, the
procurement approach helped OEM profits - although at the expense of supplier profits and arguably innovation. Moreover, the
procurement approach failed to address internal OEM costs such as engineering. The sheer brute force of Phase 1 favored the
manufacturers with the largest global production volumes (e.g. GM), regardless of the degree of commonality across platforms and
geographies.

Most OEMs are still pursuing varying degrees of phase 2, platform commonality. In this approach, OEMs seek to communize parts across
vehicles within a platform -- at first, variants within a region and then in vehicles across regions. For the OEM, platform commonality
unlocks engineering savings, up to 60 percent on the common vehicles depending on how far out the scale curve. If extended globally,
OEMS can gain further benefit from leveraging lower cost production sites and by supporting smaller-run variants to address niche
segments. Platform commonality can be win-win for suppliers, who can similarly leverage their engineering and tooling costs across larger
runs, as well as more easily move production across different plants in different geographies. Japanese OEMs such as Honda, with their
export driven approach, were early leaders, although virtually all OEMs are at some stage of phase 2. Overall savings can range from 5 –
10%, depending on scale and commonality.

Phase 3 involves modular architectures - that is, parts commonality not just within a platform, but across platforms (and across geography).
By further driving down the scale curve additional efficiencies result - as well as lowering the overall complexity of the organization and
supporting manufacturing flexibility (multiple platforms on the same assembly lines). VW is acknowledged by competitors as the global
benchmark for modularity, with plans to compress to two sets of modules (MQB for traverse, generally volume) and MLB for longitudinal,
generally premium).

The New Ford Focus, which Ford is showcasing at the Detroit Auto Show this week, is a key launch for Ford to move vertically toward
greater commonality in the C class, from about 35% (shown on chart below) to 60% commonality. When intra and cross platform
commonality is considered in, for example, the C segment, we believe that VW, with its modular approach, and Hyundai, with its scale of the
common Elantra platform, capture the greatest scale economies. While Renault/Nissan has scale, it appears to have not driven true
platform cost sharing, highlighting an opportunity to drive the alliance to the next level Both PSA and Fiat fall short on sheet scale, although
both are likely to have a moderate level of commonality.

FORD FOCUS IS KEY MOVE TO EXPLOIT SCALE


th
While Ford is a significant global player in total volume, with an estimated 6 place position in global sales in 2009, the company, like other
global OEMs, is seeking greater global scale and commonality as it consolidates multiple platforms for high volume small and medium sized
vehicle segments into a single global platform per segment.

In particular, Ford currently has four major platforms underpinning its C and D segment vehicles. For its C cars (Ford Focus), Ford
produces international versions using the C1 platform and the US version using the C170 platform, requiring additional R&D and product
costs. Similarly, the European D car (Ford Mondeo) is built off of the CD-EU platform, while D cars in America and Asia (Ford Fusion and
Mazda 6) use the CD1-3 platform.

Ford’s strategy to consolidate its C car platform into one global platform starting in late 2010 provides the company with improved scale that
is competitive with other global OEMs with significant C car sales. In total, Ford expects to develop up to 10 models using the global C-car
platform, and estimates that global sales could exceed 2 mil vehicles on an annually basis by 2012. According to CSM, global production of
Ford’s global C car platform could reach 1.8 mil units in 2011 (see Figure 5).

Ford’s plan to bring its global B car to additional regions such as the US could improve global volumes to around 800k units by 2011. This
would bring Ford above Fiat and GM, and roughly in line with PSA and Toyota. Nevertheless, Renault-Nissan and VW are expected to
maintain the largest volumes in the industry, with VW likely leading when considering both volume and commonality within its platform.

Longer term, Ford should benefit from further global platform consolidations, as its medium vehicles on CD-EU and CD1-3 platforms
migrate to the global CD4 platform starting in 2012. While Toyota’s MC-M platform (which underpins C/D vehicles like the Camry) is
expected to remain the volume leader in the D segment, CSM estimates that Ford will produce 934k units using its CD4 platform in 2014,
within competitive range of other major OEMs (see Figure 7). For comparison, GM is expected to produce 1.05 mil vehicles under Global
Epsilon, its consolidated global D car platform.

CLASS LEADING C-CAR COULD FURTHER IMPROVE MID-TERM PROFITS

In addition to improved global scale and commonality, we believe that Ford could leverage a class leading C-segment offering to lift its mid-
term potential across all regions. At Ford’s analyst day last September, we were able to take a test drive of the Euro-spec Fiesta B-car. The
drivability and interior design of the Fiesta (which was superior, in our view, to the refreshed US Fusion and Taurus) underscored the
strength of the Ford Europe small car product line and its potential appeal to US buyers, in our view.

In the US, Ford should have a clear running field for 1H11 until the likely mid year launch of the Hyundai Elantra, albeit with some
competition from a 2011-12 (date uncertain) Honda Civic launch, while the historically strong Toyota Corolla ages off of a not particularly

inspired 2009 redesign. GM has the Chevrolet Cruze entrant that is undoubtedly an improvement on the current Cobalt, but we do not
expect it to contend, as the Focus might, for C car class leadership. In the US, Ford’s ability to price up the new Focus remains uncertain;
Ford management pointed to the option take rate in the current Focus, as well as the positioning of the Fiesta at a lower price point, as
potential support for a higher transaction price for the next-generation Focus in the US. Nevertheless, building off of meaningful cost actions
the company has taken, we expect Ford North America to post pre-tax results of $5.2 bil and margin of 7.3% in 2011.

We expect a greater profit contribution from the redesigned Focus in Europe. The Focus should enjoy in 2011 a relatively less crowded
field in Europe, with only PSA launching in the volume C segment. Moreover, we expect a rebound in European C overall in 2011 as mix
renormalizes after the scrappage-program induced A and B segment lift fades.

While GM’s decision to keep Opel leaves GM in a more competitive position in Europe, Ford remains a strong player in the region (4th
position in both C-segment and total industry sales), which should enable the company to improve sales as well as region profitability in the
mid-term. As a result, we estimate that Europe pre-tax profit in 2011 could reach $1.2 bil or 3.5% margin. Indeed, Ford’s CFO reinforced
our view by indicating at the Analyst Day that the company expects to achieve margins above the middle range of European OEM margins
(we calculate to be around 3-4%), but behind profit leader VW (who leverages both its European scale as well as its dominance of the
generally profitable German market).

In addition to developed markets, we expect Ford to benefit from growth in the BRIC countries. Specifically, Ford holds the 4th position in
industry sales in Brazil, which, boosted by government stimulus, remained fairly strong in 2009. Given Ford’s robust performance in South
America (of all the company’s regions, Ford South America continues to post the strongest margins), we expect Ford to target share
expansion in the region, supported by the company’s recent announcement to invest 4 bil reais ($2.3 bil) over the next 5 years to increase
plant capacity in Brazil (see “Ford to Invest $2.3 Bil for Expansion in Brazil, Bloomberg, November 20, 2009). As a result, by 2011 we
estimate that pre-tax profits and margins could reach $1.3 bil and 14.9% respectively, up from an estimated $582 mil and 8.3% in 2009.

MANAGEMENT’S BALANCE SHEET STRATEGY COULD RESULT IN MEANINGFUL CASH CUSHION

In the first three quarters of 2009, Ford management executed various actions that we believe are positive steps forward for the company,
including

ƒ Reaching an agreement with the UAW to convert its $13.1 bil of VEBA obligations due in 2010 into two notes (of which half is
payable in stock) and amending its labor agreements to eliminate Jobs Bank and suspend COLA and bonus payments.

ƒ Retiring $10 bil of debt through debt exchange offers

ƒ Raising $1.6 bil of equity

After posting 3Q results, Ford announced three additional actions that further enhance the company’s liquidity position. First, Ford issued
$2.875 bil of senior convertible notes, which settled on November 9th. Net proceeds from the offering were $2.810 bil. The convertible, due
November 15, 2016, pays 4.25% per annum and has a conversion rate of 107.5269 shares per $1,000 in principal. This translates to a
conversion price of $9.30 per share, and at full conversion, 309 mil new shares.

Second, Ford began in December a $1 bil equity drip, which the company indicated could take several months to complete.

Third, Ford reached an agreement with its lenders to extend the maturity of the majority of its $10.7 bil revolver from December 15, 2011
through November 30, 2013. The commitment level has been reduced by 82% to $8.8 bil, which is broken out between a $7.2 bil is a
revolver maturing in November 2013 and a $724 mil term loan maturing in December 2013. Of the previous commitment level, lenders
elected not to extend $886 mil, which will expire in December 2011.

With strengthening operating performance and an improved liquidity outlook, we continue to expect Ford to meet its minimum cash needs
through 2011. Taking into account $5.9 bil in awarded DOE loans and $8.8 bil of its refinanced credit facility, we estimate that Ford could
end 2011 with $26.0 bil of cash, well above the $10 mil minimum we estimate to be Ford’s working cash needs (or $8 mil assuming sale of
Volvo).

Indeed, Ford’s decision to prepay an additional portion of its VEBA obligations on top of paying its December 31st obligation entirely in cash
(in lieu of paying Note B obligations in stock) suggests that the company ended 2009 with a strong cash position.

RAISING PRICE TARGET TO $11

As investors are increasingly comfortable with Ford’s rebound earnings potential, we are raising our price target from $9 to $11. We value
Ford using a 4.0x multiple of our 2011 EBITDA estimate of $11.8 billion, a $11.6 billion value for Ford's stake in Ford Credit and $18.0 bil of
excess cash (updated for the recently refinanced credit facility). Assuming all VEBA obligations are paid in cash, liabilities would total $38.5
billion, leaving $38.4 billion of equity value, or $11 per share.

Previously, we were valuing Ford using a 4.0x multiple of our 2011 EBITDA estimate of $11.8 bil, a $11.6 billion value for Ford's stake in
Ford Credit and $18.9 billion of excess cash. Assuming all VEBA obligations are paid in cash, liabilities would total $38.5 billion, leaving
$39.4 billion of equity value. Our previous price target of $9 was discounted back by 20% for 2010.

Equity Research

Despite the increase, our price target remains slightly below current trading levels, as we are cautious around the recent run fueled by
investor anticipation for a rebound in auto demand. Indeed, we note that if the economy’s and Ford’s mid-term outlook improves, investors
may increasingly move to a P/E valuation, which implies upside to our $11 price target. Applying a conservative 10x multiple to our above-
the-Street 2011 EPS estimate of $1.50 would imply valuation of $15, while using the same multiple on consensus 2011 EPS of $1.11 would
imply equity valuation at our price target. Given the uncertainty around the macroeconomic environment for 2010, we are comfortable
maintaining an EV/EBITDA valuation approach and $11 price target.

Valuation Methodology: We are valuing Ford using a 4.0x multiple of our 2011 EBITDA estimate of $11.8 bil, a $11.6 bil value for Ford's
stake in Ford Credit and $18.0 bil of excess cash. Assuming all VEBA obligations are paid in cash, liabilities would total $38.5 bil, leaving
$38.4 bil of equity value, or $11 per share.
Risks Which May Impede the Achievement of the Price Target: Factors that could affect our investment opinion, price target, and
earnings estimates ("outlook") include, but are not limited to, changes to unionized labor agreements and the risk of work stoppages; the
performance of pension assets; the potential for credit downgrades (credit ratings play a major role in the automakers' ability to help their
customers finance the purchase of new vehicles); the risk of substantial increases in North American production capacity by foreign

automakers; and the consequential risk to market share. Risks specific to our Ford outlook include the following: (1) restructuring benefits
could come sooner, and be more pronounced, than expected; (2) new products could help the company stem its market share decline or
improve mix, thus making a more sizeable contribution to profits.

3-Negative (see definitions below). A rating system using terms such as buy, hold and sell is not the equivalent of our rating system.
Investors should carefully read the entire research report including the definitions of all ratings and not infer its contents from ratings alone.

Stock Rating
1-Overweight - The stock is expected to outperform the unweighted expected total return of the sector coverage universe over a 12-month
investment horizon.
2-Equal Weight - The stock is expected to perform in line with the unweighted expected total return of the sector coverage universe over a
12- month investment horizon.
3-Underweight - The stock is expected to underperform the unweighted expected total return of the sector coverage universe over a
12- month investment horizon.
RS-Rating Suspended - The rating and target price have been suspended temporarily due to market events that made coverage
impracticable or to comply with applicable regulations and/or firm policies in certain circumstances including when Barclays Capital is acting
in an advisory capacity in a merger or strategic transaction involving the company.

Sector View
1-Positive - sector coverage universe fundamentals/valuations are improving.
2-Neutral - sector coverage universe fundamentals/valuations are steady, neither improving nor deteriorating.
3-Negative - sector coverage universe fundamentals/valuations are deteriorating.
