Ford Motor Company, Civil Action No. 07-14845 (E.D. Mich. filed Nov. 9, 2007) (“Hardwick II”), and/or (2) the class action of Int’l Union, UAW, et al. v. Ford Motor Company, Civil Action No. 05-74730, (E.D. Mich. July 13, 2006), aff’d, 497 F.3d 615 (6th Cir. 2007) (“Hardwick I”), and amends the 2008 Settlement Agreement, as of the Amendment Effective Date (as hereinafter defined).

Terms used in the Settlement Agreement Amendment and not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meaning as defined in the Settlement Agreement (as hereinafter defined).

The Final Effective Date under the 2008 Settlement Agreement occurred on August 29, 2008.

With regard to Ford, the UAW and the Class (as defined therein), the 2008 Settlement Agreement (i) resolved and settled all claims that arise in connection with Hardwick II; (ii) resolved and settled all claims, motions and other issues pertaining to or remaining in Hardwick I; (iii) amended, superseded or otherwise supplanted the Hardwick I Settlement Agreement; and (iv) provided the basis upon which the judgment entered July 13, 2006 in Hardwick I shall be satisfied, superseded or amended as necessary to give full force and effect to the terms of the 2008 Settlement Agreement. The 2008 Settlement Agreement also resolved and settled any and all claims for Ford contributions to the Existing External VEBA, and provided for the termination of the Existing External VEBA and the transfer of all assets and liabilities of the Existing External VEBA to the New VEBA.

The 2008 Settlement Agreement recognized and approved on the basis set forth therein: (i) the amendment of the Ford Retiree Health Plan to terminate coverage for and exclude from coverage, the Class and the Covered Group (as defined therein); (ii) the transfer of the assets of the Existing Internal VEBA to the New VEBA; (iii) the termination of participation by the Class and the Covered Group under the Existing Internal VEBA; (iv) the termination of the Existing External VEBA in conjunction with the establishment of the New Plan, and the transfer to the New VEBA of all assets and liabilities of the Existing External VEBA; (v) that all claims for Retiree Medical Benefits incurred after the Implementation Date by the Class and the Covered Group, including but not limited to COBRA continuation coverage where such election is (or had been) made on or after retirement and any coverage provided on a self-paid basis in retirement, shall be solely the responsibility and liability of the New Plan and the New VEBA; (vi) the Committee’s designation under the New Plan and New VEBA as named fiduciary and administrator of the New Plan; (vii) that the New Plan shall replace the Ford Retiree Health Plan with respect to the provision of Retiree Medical Benefits to the Class and the Covered Group; (viii) that the New VEBA shall receive certain payments and other consideration as described therein from the Existing Internal VEBA, the Existing External VEBA and Ford; (ix) that Ford’s obligation to pay into the New VEBA is fixed and capped as described therein; and (x) that the New VEBA shall serve as the exclusive funding mechanism for the New Plan.

This Settlement Agreement Amendment is entered into by the parties to the 2008 Settlement Agreement to implement certain amendments that the parties agree are necessary to provide funding for the provision of Retiree Medical Benefits to the Class and the Covered Group as contemplated by the 2008 Settlement Agreement. In connection with the 2009 negotiations between Ford and the UAW over the terms of certain modifications to the Ford-UAW National Agreements, the UAW and its financial advisors engaged in further review and analysis of Ford’s financial condition in light of the economic conditions facing the automotive industry and the effect thereof on the ability of Ford to meet its payment obligations under the 2008 Settlement Agreement, absent the restructuring of such obligations pursuant to this Settlement Agreement Amendment. Class Counsel and their financial advisors engaged in similar review and analysis. The UAW, Class Counsel and their respective financial advisors also analyzed the benefits of the amendments to the 2008 Settlement Agreement provided for herein and the favorable impact of entering into such amendments on the ability of the New VEBA to provide Retiree Medical Benefits over the long term in accordance with the 2008 Settlement Agreement. The UAW and the Class Representatives (on behalf of the Class, by and through Class Counsel) are entering into this Settlement Agreement Amendment based in part on progress by Ford in respect of restructuring actions with other stakeholders including, but not limited to, the restructuring initiatives completed by Ford and Ford Motor Credit Company LLC on or before April 8, 2009 and described in press releases attached as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 to the April 6, 2009 filing by Ford on Form 8-K.

This Settlement Amendment Agreement is subject to approval by the Court, and the parties shall request that the Court enter an Amendment Approval Order (as hereinafter defined) approving this Settlement Agreement Amendment and confirming the Court’s approval of the 2008 Settlement Agreement as amended hereby (the “Settlement Agreement”). After the Amendment Effective Date, in the event of an inconsistency between the Settlement Agreement and any prior agreements or documents, including the 2008 Settlement Agreement prior to giving effect to amendments hereunder, the Memorandum of Understanding between UAW and Ford dated November 3, 2007, and the Term Sheet dated February 23, 2009, as amended on June 23, 2009, the Settlement Agreement shall control. In the event of any inconsistency between the body of the Settlement Agreement and the exhibits thereto, the Settlement Agreement shall control, unless explicitly stated otherwise in the Settlement Agreement.

(1) If an Amendment Approval Order satisfactory to the parties, as described in Section 3(c)(1) of this Settlement Agreement Amendment, is entered by the Court, but overturned in whole or in part on appeal or otherwise, Ford, the UAW, or Class Counsel, acting on behalf of the Class, may terminate this Settlement Agreement Amendment upon 30 days’ written notice to the other parties.

(3) In the event this Settlement Agreement Amendment is terminated, this Settlement Agreement Amendment shall cease to be of any further force or effect and the amendments to the 2008 Settlement Agreement effected hereby shall be deemed revoked and null and void as though the Amendment Effective Date had not occurred.

(f) Miscellaneous.

(1) As contemplated in Section 26 of the Settlement Agreement and the 2008 Settlement Agreement, the Court shall retain exclusive jurisdiction to resolve any disputes relating to or arising out of or in connection with the enforcement, interpretation or implementation of this Settlement Agreement Amendment.

All executed counterparts and each of them shall be deemed to be one and the same instrument, provided that counsel for the parties to this Settlement Agreement Amendment shall exchange among themselves original signed counterparts.

(6) No party to this Settlement Agreement Amendment may assign any of its rights hereunder without the prior written consent of the other parties, and any purported assignment in violation of this sentence shall be void. This Settlement Amendment Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

(7) Each of Ford, the UAW, Class Representatives, Class Members and the Class Counsel shall do any and all acts and things, and shall execute and deliver any and all documents, as may be necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of this Settlement Agreement Amendment.

All obligations of Ford, the Ford Retiree Health Plan and any other Ford entity or benefit plan for Retiree Medical Benefits for the Class and the Covered Group arising from any agreement(s) written, oral, or otherwise between Ford and the UAW shall be forever and irrevocably terminated as of the end of the Implementation Date. Ford’s only obligations to the New Plan and the New VEBA are those set forth in this Settlement Agreement. Eligibility rules for the New Plan shall be the same as those currently included in the Ford Retiree Health Plan, and may not be expanded.

3.	Factual Investigation and Legal Inquiry and Decision to Settle

Throughout the 2007 negotiations between Ford and the UAW over the terms of a new Ford-UAW National Agreement, the parties engaged in extended discussions concerning the impact of rising health care costs on Ford’s financial condition and its ability to compete in the North American marketplace. Ford provided the UAW with extensive information as to its financial condition and health care expenditures. On behalf of the UAW, a team of investment bankers, actuaries, and legal experts have reviewed Ford’s information, and provided the UAW with an assessment as to the state of Ford’s financial condition and analyzed the benefits of entering into the MOU. Ford officials also met with representatives of the UAW and its team of experts and answered questions and provided further detail, as requested. The UAW and its team of experts have now analyzed, inter alia, the funds necessary to provide ongoing Retiree Medical Benefits through the New Plan and the New VEBA.

During these discussions, Ford asserted, as it had in Hardwick I, that it has the right to unilaterally modify and/or terminate the health care benefits applicable to its hourly retirees and that, without this Settlement Agreement, Ford would exercise its right to terminate the Hardwick I Settlement Agreement according to its terms as well as exercise its right to unilaterally modify retiree health care benefits. Although the UAW acknowledges Ford’s right to terminate the Hardwick I Settlement Agreement, it continues to assert that the retiree health care benefits are vested and that Ford does not have the right to unilaterally modify or terminate retiree health care benefits.

On behalf of the Class, Class Counsel conducted a substantial factual investigation and legal inquiry prior to entering into the 2008 Settlement Agreement. Similar to what was done by the UAW, this included, inter alia, review of Ford’s financial information, review and analysis of collective bargaining agreements, relevant health care plan documents, and actuarial information, and review of material on Ford’s health care costs. Class Counsel retained experts to review the financial and actuarial information and, with the assistance of these experts, conducted an extensive review of Ford’s projected financial condition, Ford’s ability to provide Retiree Medical Benefits over the long term, and the proposed New VEBA’s ability to provide Retiree Medical Benefits over the long term with the funds available from the 2008 Settlement Agreement. Class Counsel has also thoroughly investigated the law applicable to the Class Members’ claims and has done so considering the collective bargaining agreements and health care plan documents affecting these claims. Class Counsel examined the benefits and certainty to be obtained under the 2008 Settlement Agreement for an aging Class, and has considered the costs, risks and delays associated with the prosecution of complex and time-consuming litigation, and the likely appeals of any rulings in favor of any party.

In connection with the 2009 negotiations between Ford and the UAW over the terms of certain modifications to the 2007 Ford-UAW National Agreement, the UAW and its financial advisors engaged in further review and analysis of Ford’s financial condition in light of the economic conditions facing the automotive industry and the effect thereof on the ability of Ford to meet its payment obligations under the 2008 Settlement Agreement, absent the restructuring of such obligations pursuant to an amendment to the 2008 Settlement Agreement. They also analyzed the benefits of the amendments to the 2008 Settlement Agreement provided for in the Setlement Agreement Amendment and the favorable impact of entering into such amendments on the ability of the New VEBA to provide Retiree Medical Benefits over the long term in accordance with this Settlement Agreement. Acting on behalf of the Class, Class Counsel and their advisors conducted a similar review and analysis of Ford’s financial condition and of the benefits of the amendments to the 2008 Settlement Agreement, as reflected herein, and the favorable impact of entering into such amendments on the ability of the New VEBA to provide Retiree Medical Benefits over the long term in accordance with this Settlement Agreement. Based on that review and analysis, Class Counsel believes that, in consideration of all the circumstances, the amendments are fair, reasonable, adequate and in the best interest of all members of the Class. Class Counsel participated in the negotiation of this Settlement Agreement.

4.	New Plan and New VEBA

A. Committee. The Approval Order provided that the New Plan and New VEBA, both subject to ERISA, shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee was established on October 16, 2008. The Committee shall consist of 11 members, 5 of whom are to be appointed by the UAW, and 6 of whom are to be independent members. The Approval Order designated the initial independent members who are set forth in Attachment 1 of Exhibit A to this Settlement Agreement. In the event that any member of the Committee resigns, dies, becomes incapacitated or otherwise ceases to be a member, a replacement member shall be appointed as described in the Trust Agreement.

B. Establish and Maintain. The EBA, acting through the Committee, shall establish and maintain the New Plan for the purpose of providing Retiree Medical Benefits to the Class and the Covered Group as set forth in this Settlement Agreement. The Committee shall begin administering the New Plan so as to be able to provide Retiree Medical Benefits for the Class and the Covered Group with respect to claims incurred after the Implementation Date. The New VEBA was established on October 16, 2008. The New Plan shall be ERISA-covered and the New VEBA shall meet the requirements of Section 501(c)(9) of the Code. All payments to the New Plan and the New VEBA made or caused to be made by Ford under the Settlement Agreement are payments pursuant to section 302(c)(2) of the Labor Management Relations Act, 1947, as amended ("LMRA"), 29 U.S.C. 186(c)(2).

C. Limitation on Ford Role. No member of the Committee shall be a current or former officer, director or employee of Ford or any member of the Ford controlled group; provided however, that a retiree who was represented by the UAW in his/her employment with Ford or an employee of Ford who is on leave from Ford and who is represented by the UAW is not precluded by this provision from serving on the Committee. No member of the Committee shall be authorized to act for Ford or shall be an agent or representative of Ford for any purpose. Furthermore, Ford shall not be a fiduciary with respect to the New Plan or New VEBA, and shall have no rights, obligations or responsibilities with respect to the New Plan or New VEBA other than as specifically set forth in this Settlement Agreement.

5.	Provision and Scope of Retiree Medical Benefits

A. On or Prior to Implementation Date. With respect to claims incurred on or prior to the Implementation Date, Retiree Medical Benefits for the Class and the Covered Group shall continue to be provided by the Ford Retiree Health Plan and the Existing External VEBA at the same level and scope as provided for by the Ford Retiree Health Plan and the Existing External VEBA under the Hardwick I Settlement Agreement, including Mitigation from the Existing External VEBA (for those entitled to it). The payment by Ford and/or the Ford Retiree Health Plan of Retiree Medical Benefits for claims incurred on or prior to the Implementation Date shall not reduce Ford’s payment obligations to the New Plan and the New VEBA under this Settlement Agreement.

B. After Implementation Date. With respect to claims incurred after the Implementation Date, the New Plan and the New VEBA shall have sole responsibility for and be the exclusive source of funds to provide Retiree Medical Benefits for the Class and the Covered Group, including but not limited to COBRA continuation coverage where such election is made after retirement. Neither Ford, the Ford Retiree Health Plan, the Existing Internal VEBA, nor any other Ford person, entity, or benefit plan shall have any responsibility or liability for Retiree Medical Benefits for individuals in the Class or in the Covered Group for claims incurred after the Implementation Date. Ford’s sole obligations to the New Plan and the New VEBA are those set forth in this Settlement Agreement.

The Committee shall have such authority to establish Benefits as described in the Trust Agreement, including raising or lowering benefits. However, in no event may the Committee amend the New Plan or New VEBA to provide benefits other than Retiree Medical Benefits until the expiration of the Initial Accounting Period. The ability of the New Plan and the New VEBA to pay for Retiree Medical Benefits will depend on numerous factors, many of which are outside of the control of UAW, the Committee, the New Plan and the New VEBA, including, without limitation, the investment returns, actuarial experience and other factors.

C. Amendment of Ford Retiree Health Plan and Reimbursement of Ford. The Approval Order provided and the Amendment Approval Order shall provide that all obligations of Ford and all provisions of the Ford Retiree Health Plan in any way related to Retiree Medical Benefits for the Class and/or the Covered Group, and all provisions of applicable collective bargaining agreements, contracts, letters and understandings in any way related to Retiree Medical Benefits for the Class and the Covered Group are forever and irrevocably terminated as of the end of the Implementation Date, or otherwise amended so as to be consistent with this Settlement Agreement and the fundamental understanding that all Ford obligations regarding Retiree Medical Benefits for the Class and the Covered Group are terminated as set forth in this Settlement Agreement. Summary Plan Descriptions of the Ford Retiree Health Plan shall be amended to reflect the termination of Ford and Ford Retiree Health Plan responsibilities for Retiree Medical Benefits for the Class and the Covered Group for claims incurred after the Implementation Date as set forth herein.

The New Plan and New VEBA shall reimburse Ford or the Ford Retiree Health Plan, as applicable, for any Retiree Medical Benefits advanced or provided by Ford or the Ford Retiree Health Plan with regard to claims incurred by members of the Class and the Covered Group after the Implementation Date, including, but not limited to, situations where a retirement is made retroactive and the medical claims were incurred after the Implementation Date or where Ford is notified of an intent by a member of the Class and the Covered Group to retire under circumstances where there is insufficient time to transfer responsibility for Retiree Medical Benefits to the New Plan and Ford or the Ford Retiree Health Plan provides interim coverage for Retiree Medical Benefits. To the extent such reimbursement may not be permitted by law, the UAW, the Class, Class Counsel and the Committee shall fully cooperate with Ford in securing any legal or regulatory approvals that are necessary to permit such reimbursement.

6.	Existing Internal VEBA

A. Existing Internal VEBA Balance. The 2008 Settlement Agreement provided for the Existing Internal VEBA balance as of December 31, 2007 to be determined using the December 31, 2007 valuation from the independent trustee of the Existing Internal VEBA, which was to be based on the existing trust agreement for the Existing Internal VEBA. In accordance with this methodology, the December 31, 2007 valuation of the Existing Internal VEBA for purposes of this Section 6.A is $3,739,851,094.10. The determination of the Existing Internal VEBA balance as of December 31, 2007 is final and binding on Ford, the UAW, the Committee, the Class Representatives, the Class, the Covered Group and Class Counsel for purposes of this Settlement Agreement upon an Independent Audit.

B. Investment of Assets. Ford shall continue to oversee the investment of the assets in the Existing Internal VEBA and all such assets shall be invested in a manner consistent with the long-term nature of the health care liabilities under the investment policy (as may be amended from time to time by Ford who shall notify the UAW and the Committee about intended amendments in a timely manner) applicable to the Existing Internal VEBA. Ford does not guarantee or warrant the investment returns on the assets in the Existing Internal VEBA.

C. Disposition of Assets. Since the date of the 2008 Settlement Agreement no amounts have been withdrawn by Ford, and no amounts shall be withdrawn by Ford, from the Existing Internal VEBA, including its investment returns, until transfer to the New VEBA under Section 12 or termination of this Settlement Agreement under Section 30 of this Settlement Agreement. If the Implementation Date occurs, Ford shall cause all assets in the Existing Internal VEBA, including investment returns thereon, net of trust expenses (this shall only include expenses to the extent permitted by ERISA) not previously taken into account in determining investment returns, to be transferred from the Existing Internal VEBA to the New VEBA as set forth in Sections 8.A and 12.B of this Settlement Agreement. Ford and the Committee shall enter into discussions in advance of such transfer with regard to the method of allocating, transferring and/or otherwise handling any illiquid or otherwise non-transferable investments in the Existing Internal VEBA so as to preserve as much as possible the economic value of such investments and minimize any losses due to the liquidation of assets. Such discussions shall be completed by November 30, 2009. The determinations made by Ford as a product of these discussions with the Committee regarding the way to transfer illiquid or otherwise non-transferable investments in the Existing Internal VEBA shall be final and binding on Ford, the UAW, the Committee, the Class Representatives, the Class, the Covered Group and Class Counsel.

7.	Temporary Asset Account and Limited Liability Company

A. Creation of TAA. Prior to the date of the 2008 Settlement Agreement, Ford established the TAA. Subject to termination of this Settlement Agreement, the sole purpose of the TAA is to serve as tangible evidence of the availability of assets equal to the sum of certain amounts that Ford agrees to pay to the New VEBA as provided in this Settlement Agreement (for clarification, the reference to the TAA does not include the amounts in the Existing External VEBA or the Existing Internal VEBA). Neither the TAA nor the assets therein shall be used for any purposes other than as set forth in this Settlement Agreement. Ford shall, or shall cause the LLC to, keep true and correct books and records regarding the assets held in the TAA as well as all amounts credited to and debited against the TAA, including investment returns.

B. Creation of the LLC. Prior to the date of the 2008 Settlement Agreement, Ford created Ford-UAW Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, to hold certain debt instruments issued by Ford in connection with the 2008 Settlement Agreement and, as determined by Ford pursuant to the 2008 Settlement Agreement, the TAA, and to receive principal of, and interest and other income from such assets. Until the exchange thereof for New Note A, New Note B, and the Warrants pursuant to the Securities Exchange Agreement, interest on the Convertible Note and the Term Note shall be deposited in the TAA in accordance with Section 7.D of this Settlement Agreement. Subject to termination of this Settlement Agreement, the sole purpose of the LLC is to hold the Convertible Note, the Term Note, the TAA Note, New Note A, New Note B, the Warrants, the Payment Shares, if any, and as determined by Ford pursuant to the 2008 Settlement Agreement, the TAA, thereby serving as tangible evidence of the availability on the Implementation Date of assets equal to New Note A, New Note B, the Warrants, such Payment Shares and the TAA, that Ford agrees to pay and/or transfer on or after the Implementation Date to the New VEBA as provided in this Settlement Agreement. The LLC shall engage in no activities other than (i) holding the Convertible Note, the Term Note, the TAA Note, New Note A, New Note B, the Warrants, such Payment Shares and the assets in the TAA; (ii) investing the assets in the TAA, if applicable, as provided in this Settlement Agreement, and (iii) to the extent Ford does not transfer its interests in the LLC to the New VEBA in accordance with this Settlement Agreement, transferring New Note A, New Note B, the Warrants, such Payment Shares and the assets in the TAA to the New VEBA. The LLC shall not exercise any conversion rights under the Convertible Note or exercise the Warrants and shall not agree to any amendments to the Convertible Note, the Term Note, the TAA Note, New Note A, New Note B or the Warrants, until such time, if any, as the interests in the LLC are transferred to the New VEBA, as permitted by Section 12.E. Promptly after the date of this Settlement Agreement, Ford shall cause the LLC to execute and deliver an instrument of accession, supplementing the accession previously delivered pursuant to the 2008 Settlement Agreement, in which it shall agree to be bound by and to perform the provisions of Sections 7, 8 and 12 of this Settlement Agreement to the extent applicable to the LLC.

Ford shall, with respect to the performance of its duties in managing the Existing Internal VEBA and the TAA, participate in the following meetings and provide the following reports to the UAW and the Committee: (i) quarterly reports of TAA and Existing Internal VEBA asset class and benchmark performance for relevant time periods; and (ii) semi-annual or quarterly meetings with UAW and/or Committee representatives to report on TAA and Existing Internal VEBA returns and analysis of performance, and to review significant activities affecting investments. Any input from the UAW, Class Counsel and/or the Committee shall not be a basis of Ford’s investment decisions within the meaning of the DOL regulations set forth at 29 CFR § 2510-3.21(c).

8.	Ford Payments to New Plan and New VEBA

Ford’s financial obligation and payments to the New Plan and New VEBA are fixed and capped by the terms of this Settlement Agreement. The timing of all payments to the New VEBA shall be as set forth in Section 12 of this Settlement Agreement; it being agreed and acknowledged that the New Plan, funded by the New VEBA, shall provide Retiree Medical Benefits for the Class and the Covered Group after the Implementation Date, and that all obligations of Ford and the Ford Retiree Health Plan for Retiree Medical Benefits for the Class and the Covered Group shall be forever and irrevocably terminated as of the end of the Implementation Date, as set forth in this Settlement Agreement. All assets shall be transferred or paid by Ford free and clear of any liens, claims or other encumbrances. Pursuant to this Settlement Agreement, Ford shall have the following, and only the following, obligations to the New VEBA and the New Plan, and all payments and transfers in this Section 8 and in Sections 9 through 10 of this Settlement Agreement shall be credited to the Ford Separate Retiree Account of the New VEBA:

A. Existing Internal VEBA. Provide for the transfer to the New VEBA of the assets (or, with regard to any illiquid or otherwise non-transferable investments, equivalent alternatives resulting from discussions between Ford and the Committee pursuant to Section 6.C of this Settlement Agreement) of the Existing Internal VEBA, net of Existing Internal VEBA trust expenses (this shall only include expenses to the extent permitted by ERISA), as described in Section 12.B of this Settlement Agreement.

B. TAA Equivalency. Transfer to the New VEBA the assets in the TAA (representing the amounts Ford deposited in the TAA pursuant to Section 7.D of this Settlement Agreement and the investment returns thereon), net of expenses (but limited to those expenses that could be charged under ERISA if the TAA were a plan subject to ERISA) or, at Ford’s option, transfer either (i) cash in lieu of some or all of these assets in the TAA or (ii) all interests in the LLC as described in Section 12.E of this Settlement Agreement.

C. New Note A. Cause the LLC to transfer to the New VEBA New Note A issued by Ford to the LLC, as described in Section 12.E of this Settlement Agreement. In the event that the transfer of New Note A to the New VEBA occurs subsequent to a Record Date and on or prior to the Payment Date (as such terms are defined in New Note A), Ford shall cause the LLC to transfer to the New VEBA immediately upon receipt the payment that the LLC will receive that corresponds to such Payment Date. Ford shall pay any and all documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes that may be payable in requesting the issue or transfer of New Note A to the New VEBA.

D. New Note B and Payment Shares. Cause the LLC to transfer to the New VEBA New Note B issued by Ford to the LLC, as described in Section 12.E of this Settlement Agreement, and any Payment Shares issued to the LLC in respect thereof. Ford shall pay any and all documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes that may be payable in requesting the issue or transfer of the New Note B and Payment Shares, if any, to the New VEBA.

E. Warrants. Cause the LLC to transfer to the New VEBA the Warrants issued to the LLC, as described in Section 12.E of this Settlement Agreement. Ford shall pay any and all documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes that may be payable in requesting the issue or transfer of the Warrants to the New VEBA.

F. Cash Contribution Based on Increase in Stock Value. Within five days of the Final Effective Date, Ford transferred to the Existing External VEBA $33 million in satisfaction of the Stock Contribution Obligation, as described in Section 13.C of the Hardwick I Settlement Agreement.

The payments described in this Section 8 are subject to reduction for the amounts set forth in Section 12.A of this Settlement Agreement. To the extent that any assets described in this Section 8 are held by the LLC, Ford may satisfy the payment and transfer obligations in this Section 8 and in Sections 9 through 11 by transferring all interests in the LLC to the New VEBA.

9.	Wage and COLA Deferrals

A. Impact on Hardwick I Wage and COLA Deferral. Ford shall continue to deposit into the Existing External VEBA the wage and COLA deferrals set forth in Section 13.B of the Hardwick I Settlement Agreement (including the COLA deferrals and non-payment of the September 18, 2006 general increase to the hourly wage rate) until the termination of the Existing External VEBA. As a result of Ford agreeing to deposit the amount described in Section 7.D(i) into the TAA, the Approval Order provided that as of the day following the Implementation Date (i) Ford shall no longer be required to make deposits of the wage and COLA deferrals from the Hardwick I Settlement Agreement into the Existing External VEBA, (ii) the amounts described in Section 7.D(i) paid by Ford pursuant to this Settlement Agreement shall be in full satisfaction of any and all of Ford’s obligations under Section 13.B of the Hardwick I Settlement Agreement and the provisions of the judgment in Hardwick I regarding wage and COLA deferrals, (iii) Ford shall have no further obligations as to such payments or contributions to the Existing External VEBA, and (iv) the Hardwick I wage and COLA deferrals shall inure thereafter solely to the benefit of Ford and continue in perpetuity increasing at $0.02 per hour per quarter as described in Section 13.B of the Hardwick I Settlement Agreement.

If the Implementation Date occurs after January 1, 2010, then the balance in the TAA as of the Implementation Date (excluding New Note A, New Note B, the Warrants and any Payment Shares) to be deposited in the New VEBA as provided in Section 8.B of this Settlement Agreement shall be reduced by the value of the wage and COLA deferral contributions paid or payable to the Existing External VEBA under the Hardwick I Settlement Agreement (assuming a 9% rate of return on such contributions) from January 1, 2010 to the Implementation Date.

B. 2009 Wage Deferral. In negotiating the MOU and 2007 Ford-UAW National Agreement, Ford and UAW agreed that there shall be no general increase to the hourly wage rate for Ford Active Employees in 2009 regardless of whether or not the Implementation Date occurs. As a result, Ford agreed to pre-fund this wage increase to the TAA as referred to in Section 7.D(i) of this Settlement Agreement. If the Implementation Date does not occur, the wage increase will not be reinstated.

C. 2007 COLA Diversion. In negotiating the MOU and 2007 Ford-UAW National Agreement, Ford and UAW also agreed that, effective with the December 1, 2007 COLA adjustment and ending September 1, 2011, up to four cents ($0.04) per hour per quarter shall be diverted from COLA otherwise calculated for Ford Active Employees. These deferred amounts shall inure solely to the benefit of Ford and shall not be reinstated after September 1, 2011 but shall continue to be deferred in perpetuity. As a result, Ford agreed to pre-fund these future COLA adjustments to the TAA referred to in Section 7.D(i) of this Settlement Agreement. If the Implementation Date does not occur, the cumulative effect of four cents ($0.04) per hour per quarter of COLA shall be reinstated and Ford and the UAW shall agree on the disposition of such COLA adjustment. The UAW and Ford acknowledge that these COLA diversions shall not entitle any member of the Covered Group to any payment from, or create any interest on their part in, any assets or amounts held in the TAA.

10.	Other Payments to the Existing External VEBA

Ford’s “Third Contribution” of $43 million, as required by Section 13.A of the Hardwick I Settlement Agreement, was paid by Ford to the Existing External VEBA on January 1, 2009 (or the first business day thereafter).

11.	[RESERVED]

12.	Sequencing of Initial Deposits to the New VEBA and Termination of Existing External VEBA, the LLC and TAA

The initial deposits to the New VEBA shall be made and credited to the Ford Separate Retiree Account, and the Existing External VEBA and TAA shall be terminated, as provided below.

A. Deposit No. 1. Pursuant to the 2008 Settlement Agreement, on January 16, 2009, Ford caused a transfer of $50,000.00 from the TAA to the New VEBA. Thereafter, and until the Implementation Date, within 30 days of any request by the Committee, Ford shall cause the transfer of such additional amounts as the Committee shall request, provided that there shall be no more than five such requests prior to the Implementation Date and the aggregate of all such transfers, including the initial payment, shall not exceed $20 million. Such amounts shall represent an advance to the New VEBA to cover reasonable and necessary preparatory expenses incurred by the New Plan or the New VEBA in anticipation of the transition of responsibility for Retiree Medical Benefits as of the day following the Implementation Date as set forth in Section 5 of this Settlement Agreement. These advance payments shall not increase or add to the amounts Ford has agreed to pay under this Settlement Agreement.

B. Deposit No. 2. Within 10 business days after the Implementation Date, Ford shall direct the trustee of the Existing Internal VEBA to transfer to the New VEBA all assets in the Existing Internal VEBA or cash in an amount equal to the Existing Internal VEBA balance on the date of the transfer. The Amendment Approval Order provides that, upon such transfer, the Existing Internal VEBA shall be deemed to be amended to terminate participation and coverage regarding Retiree Medical Benefits for the Class and the Covered Group, effective as of the day following the Implementation Date. Accruals for trust expenses (this shall only include expenses to the extent permitted by ERISA) through the date of transfer shall be made and retained within the Existing Internal VEBA to pay such expenses. After payment of these trust expenses is completed, a reconciliation of the accruals and the actual expenses (this shall only include expenses to the extent permitted by ERISA) shall be performed. Ford agrees to cause the payment to the New VEBA by the Existing Internal VEBA of any overaccruals for such expenses. Similarly, in the event of an underaccrual the New VEBA shall return to the Existing Internal VEBA the amount of the underaccrual of expenses.

C. Deposit No. 3. The Amendment Approval Order shall direct the committee of the Existing External VEBA and the trustee of the Existing External VEBA to transfer all assets and liabilities of the Existing External VEBA into the New VEBA and terminate the Existing External VEBA within 15 days after the Implementation Date. This transfer of assets and liabilities shall include, but not be limited to, the transfer of all rights and obligations granted to or imposed on the Existing External VEBA under Section 14.C of the Hardwick I Settlement Agreement and Ford agrees that, on the day following the Implementation Date, the New VEBA shall be substituted for the Existing External VEBA for such purposes. The Amendment Approval Order shall provide that the Existing External VEBA shall be terminated after this payment is made.

D. Deposit No. 4. The balance in the TAA as of the date of transfer, after giving effect to Deposit No. 1, or at Ford’s discretion, cash in lieu of some or all of the assets in the TAA as of the date of transfer, shall be paid to the New VEBA before the 20th business day after the Implementation Date. If Ford elects to pay cash in lieu of some or all of the investments in the TAA, the cash Ford will pay shall include an amount equal to accrued and unpaid interest and dividends on such investments net of reasonable liquidation costs. Accruals for expenses (but limited to those expenses that could be charged to the TAA under ERISA if the TAA were a plan subject to ERISA) through the date of transfer shall be made and an amount equal to the TAA’s share of such accruals shall be retained within the TAA, or by Ford, as applicable, to pay such expenses. After payment of these expenses is completed, a reconciliation of the accruals and the actual expenses (but limited to those expenses that could be charged to the TAA under ERISA if the TAA were a plan subject to ERISA) shall be performed. Ford agrees to cause the payment to the New VEBA by the TAA of any overaccruals for the TAA’s share of such expenses. Similarly, in the event of an underaccrual the New VEBA will return to the TAA, or to Ford, as applicable, the amount of the underaccrual for the TAA’s share of the expenses.

E. Transfer of New Note A, New Note B, the Warrants and any Payment Shares. Ford shall cause the LLC to transfer New Note A, New Note B, the Warrants and any Payment Shares to the New VEBA after Deposit No. 4 has been made, within 25 business days after the Implementation Date if no legal or regulatory approvals are required, or within 10 business days of securing final legal or regulatory approval, including either receipt of a prohibited transaction exemption or reasonable assurance of retroactive regulatory relief reasonably satisfactory to Ford and the New VEBA from the DOL, as described in Section 22. Ford and/or the New VEBA, as applicable, shall apply for any necessary legal or regulatory approvals, including, but not limited to, the prohibited transaction exemptions described in Section 22 of this Settlement Agreement and any required federal or state bank regulatory approvals. The UAW, the Class and Class Counsel shall support and cooperate with any such requests for legal or regulatory approvals. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any transfer of the Warrants and any Payment Shares shall be conditioned upon execution and delivery by the New VEBA or the LLC (in the event Ford elects to transfer its interests in the LLC as provided in the third paragraph of this Section 12.E) of a Securityholder and Registration Rights Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit C to this Settlement Agreement.

The parties acknowledge that, upon completion of Ford’s transfer of the assets in the TAA to the New VEBA as contemplated by this Settlement Agreement, no assets should remain in the TAA and the TAA shall be terminated. If, however, assets remain in the TAA as the result of Ford’s exercise of its option to transfer cash in lieu of TAA assets, or deductions permitted under this Settlement Agreement, then Ford may thereafter use or dispose of such assets, including any investment returns thereon, for any corporate purpose. After Deposit No. 4 has been made and after transfer of the New Note A, New Note B, the Warrants and any Payment Shares, the LLC shall be terminated. All assets transferred or contributed to the New VEBA shall be free and clear of any liens, claims or other encumbrances.

To the extent that assets to be deposited or transferred to the New VEBA as described in Section 8 or this Section 12 are held by the LLC, Ford may elect in its sole discretion, to satisfy its obligation in this Section 12 by transferring all interests in the LLC to the New VEBA in lieu of causing the LLC to deposit or transfer any such assets.

If a deposit or payment or any portion thereof is made by Ford to the TAA or the New VEBA by mistake under any provision of this Settlement Agreement, including, but not limited to Sections 7 through 12 of this Settlement Agreement, (i) as to the TAA, Ford may deduct such amount from the TAA plus earnings thereon from the date of deposit in the TAA up to but excluding the date of deduction, and (ii) as to the New VEBA, the Committee shall, upon written direction of Ford, return such amounts as may be permitted by law to Ford (plus earnings thereon from the date of payment to but excluding the date of return) within 30 days of notification by Ford that such payment was made by mistake. If a dispute arises with regard to such payment, the dispute will be resolved pursuant to Section 26 of this Settlement Agreement.

13.	Adjustment Events

A.	Adjustment Event. “Adjustment Event” shall mean:

(i)

the determination of the value of any assets in lieu of which Ford elects to transfer cash to the New VEBA pursuant to Sections 8 and 12 of this Settlement Agreement; or

(ii)

the determination of the value of any illiquid or otherwise non-transferable investments in the Existing Internal VEBA in case the discussions between Ford and the Committee as set forth in Section 6.C of this Settlement Agreement result in transferring something other than such investment.

B.	Due Diligence and Adjustment Mechanism.

In connection with any Adjustment Event, Ford shall deliver, as soon as practicable, to the Committee (or the UAW prior to establishment of the Committee) information in reasonable detail about the determinations made by Ford with regard to such Adjustment Event and the work papers, underlying calculations and other documents and materials on which such determinations are based, including non-privileged materials from Ford’s advisors, if any (collectively, the “Determination Materials”).

The Committee shall have 30 days from receipt of the Determination Materials from Ford to submit to Ford a written request for an Independent Attestation of a determination(s) by Ford listed in Section 13.A of this Settlement Agreement. As a part of this review process, the Committee may ask for additional information regarding the calculations, and the data and information provided by Ford. Ford shall as promptly as practicable, respond to all reasonable requests from the Committee for such additional information. However, a request for additional information shall not extend the 30-day review period, unless an extension is reasonably necessary to allow the Committee to review such additional information, but in no event longer than 45 days from receipt of the Determination Materials.

All determinations made by Ford with regard to a determination(s) listed in Section 13.A of this Settlement Agreement shall be final and binding on Ford, the UAW, the Class Representatives, the Class, the Covered Group, Class Counsel, the Committee and the New Plan and New VEBA, unless the Committee timely submits a request for an Independent Attestation. If the Committee timely submits such a request, Ford shall engage a nationally recognized independent registered public accounting firm to conduct an Independent Attestation regarding a determination(s) by Ford listed in Section 13.A of this Settlement Agreement. The Independent Attestation shall be final and binding on Ford, the UAW, the Class Representatives, the Class, the Covered Group, Class Counsel, the Committee and the New Plan and New VEBA.

Nothing in the foregoing paragraphs shall prevent the division, deposit, withdrawal or transfer of any assets the valuation of which is not in dispute pending resolution of the disputed amounts.

C. Confidentiality. All information and data provided by Ford to the UAW, Class Counsel and/or the Committee under Section 7.G of this Settlement Agreement and as a part of this due diligence and adjustment process shall be considered confidential. The UAW, Class Counsel and the Committee shall use such information and data solely for the purpose set forth in this Section 13 of the Settlement Agreement. The UAW, Class Counsel and the Committee shall not disclose such information or data to any other person without Ford’s written consent, provided that the UAW and the Committee may disclose such information and data to their attorneys and professional advisors subject to the agreement of such attorneys and advisors to the confidentiality restrictions set forth herein.

14.	Future Contributions

The UAW, the Class and the Covered Group may not negotiate any increase of Ford’s funding or payment obligations set out herein. The UAW also agrees not to seek to obligate Ford to: (i) provide any additional payments to the New VEBA other than those specifically required by this Settlement Agreement; (ii) make any other payments for the purpose of providing Retiree Medical Benefits to the Class or the Covered Group; or (iii) provide or assume the cost of Retiree Medical Benefits for the Class or the Covered Group through any other means; provided, that, the UAW may propose that Ford Active Employees be permitted to make contributions to the New VEBA of amounts otherwise payable in profit sharing, COLA, wages and/or signing bonuses, if not prohibited by law.

15.	Pension Benefits

For purposes of determining a Class or Covered Group member’s status as a Protected Retiree under the terms of the Hardwick I settlement agreement, any pension increase negotiated in the 2007 Ford-UAW National Agreement shall not be included in the determination of pension income.

16.	Administrative Costs

The New VEBA shall be responsible for all costs to administer the New Plan and the New VEBA commencing on the day following the Implementation Date and continuing thereafter. The New Plan and the Trust Agreement shall be drafted consistent with this requirement.

17.	Trust Agreement; Segregated Account; Indemnification

Assets paid or transferred to the New VEBA by or at the direction of Ford, including all investment returns thereon, shall be used solely to provide Retiree Medical Benefits to the Class and the Covered Group as defined in this Settlement Agreement and to defray the reasonable expenses of administering the New Plan to provide such benefits as permitted under this Settlement Agreement until expiration of the Initial Accounting Period. Thereafter, Benefits shall be provided to the Class and the Covered Group as described in the Trust Agreement. The Trust Agreement shall provide: (i) for the Ford Separate Retiree Account to be credited with the assets deposited or transferred to the New VEBA by Ford, or at Ford’s direction, under this Settlement Agreement; (ii) that the assets in the Ford Separate Retiree Account may be used only to provide Benefits for such Class and such Covered Group; and (iii) that under no circumstances shall Ford or the Ford Separate Retiree Account be liable or responsible for the obligations of any other employer or for the provision of Retiree Medical Benefits or any other benefits for the employees or retirees of any other employer.

Further, the Trust Agreement shall provide that the Committee, on behalf of the New VEBA, shall take all such reasonable action as may be needed to rebut any presumption of control that would limit the New VEBA’s ability to own Ford common stock, New Note B, the Payment Shares, the Warrants or the shares of Ford common stock received by the New VEBA upon exercise of the Warrants or as may be required to comply with all applicable laws and regulations, including but not limited to federal and state banking laws and regulations.

Except as prohibited under Section 410(a) of ERISA and to the extent otherwise permitted by law, the New VEBA shall indemnify and hold the Committee, the UAW, Ford, the Ford Retiree Health Plan, and the current or former employees, officers and agents of each of them harmless from and against any liability that they may incur in connection with the New Plan and New VEBA, unless such liability arises from their gross negligence or intentional misconduct, or breach of this Settlement Agreement. The Committee shall not be required to give any bond or any other security for the faithful performance of its duties under the Trust Agreement, except as such may be required by law.

18.

Subsidies

With regard to claims incurred after the Implementation Date, the New VEBA shall be entitled to receive any Medicare Part D subsidies and other health care related subsidies regarding benefits actually paid by the New VEBA which may result from future legislative changes, and Ford shall not be entitled to receive any such subsidies related to prescription drug benefits and other health care related benefits provided to the Class and the Covered Group by the New Plan and New VEBA.

19.	Default and Cure

A. General. The Committee shall have the right to accelerate some or all of the payment obligations of Ford under this Settlement Agreement if Ford defaults on any payment obligations under this Settlement Agreement and such default is not cured within 15 business days after the Committee gives Ford notice of such default. To cure such default, Ford shall pay the amount then in default, plus accrued Interest on such amount.

B. Limitation on Liens. Effective as of the Implementation Date and until all payments required of Ford under this Settlement Agreement have been made, Ford shall not, nor shall it permit any Manufacturing Subsidiary to, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or suffer to exist any notes, bonds, debentures or other similar evidences of indebtedness for money borrowed (notes, bonds, debentures or other similar evidences of indebtedness for money borrowed being hereinafter called “Debt”), secured by a pledge of, or mortgage or lien on, any Principal Domestic Manufacturing Property of Ford or any Manufacturing Subsidiary, or any shares of stock of or Debt of any Manufacturing Subsidiary (mortgages, pledges and liens being hereinafter called “Mortgage” or “Mortgages”), without effectively providing that payment obligations by Ford under this Settlement Agreement (together with, if Ford shall so determine, any other Debt of Ford or such Manufacturing Subsidiary then existing or thereafter created ranking equally with payment obligations of Ford under this Settlement Agreement) shall be secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) such secured Debt, so long as such secured Debt shall be so secured, unless, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of all such secured Debt so secured plus all Attributable Debt of Ford and its Manufacturing Subsidiaries in respect of sale and leaseback transactions (as defined in Section 10.05 of the Indenture dated as of January 30, 2002 between Ford and The Bank of New York, as Trustee), would not exceed 5% of Consolidated Net Tangible Automotive Assets; provided, however, that this Section shall not apply to Debt secured by:

(i)

Mortgages on property of, or on any shares of stock or of Debt of, any corporation existing at the time such corporation becomes a Manufacturing Subsidiary;

(ii)

Mortgages in favor of Ford or any Manufacturing Subsidiary;

(iii)

Mortgages in favor of any governmental body to secure progress, advance or other payments pursuant to any contract or provision of any statute;

(iv)

Mortgages on property, shares of stock or Debt existing at the time of acquisition thereof (including acquisition through merger or consolidation) or to secure the payment of all or any part of the purchase price thereof or to secure any Debt incurred prior to, at the time of, or within 60 days after, the acquisition of such property or shares of Debt for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price thereof; and

(v)

any extension, renewal or replacement (or successive extensions renewals or replacements), as a whole or in part, of any Mortgage referred to in the foregoing clauses (i) to (iv), inclusive; provided that such extension, renewal or replacement Mortgage shall be limited to all or a part of the same property, shares of stock or Debt that secured the Mortgage extended, renewed or replaced (plus improvements on such property).

For purposes of this section, the term “Attributable Debt” shall mean, as to any particular lease under which any Person (defined for purposes of this Section 19B to include any individual, corporation, partnership, joint venture, association, joint stock company, trust, unincorporated organization, government or any agency or political subdivision thereof or any other entity) is at the time liable, at any date as of which the amount thereof is to be determined, the total net amount of rent (discounted from the respective due dates thereof at the rate of 9.5% per annum compounded annually) required to be paid by such Person under such lease during the remaining term thereof. The net amount of rent required to be paid under any such lease for any such period shall be the total amount of the rent payable by the lessee with respect to such period, but may exclude amounts required to be paid on account of maintenance and repairs, insurance, taxes, assessments, water rates and similar charges. In the case of any lease which is terminable by the lessee upon the payment of a penalty, such net amount shall also include the amount of such penalty, but no rent shall be considered as required to be paid under such lease subsequent to the first date upon which it may be so terminated.

C. Dispute Resolution. The dispute resolution process set forth in Section 26 of this Settlement Agreement shall apply in the event of a dispute over whether Ford has defaulted on any payment obligation under this Settlement Agreement. In this regard, the time limit applicable to Ford’s right to cure a default shall be 15 business days after agreement by the parties that Ford has defaulted, or entry by the Court of a final ruling determining that Ford has defaulted on its payment obligations. Application of the dispute resolution process set forth in Section 26 of this Settlement Agreement does not relieve Ford of the obligation to pay accrued Interest for the period of time that the dispute resolution process is in effect in order to cure a default.

20.	Cooperation

A. Cooperation by Ford. Ford shall cooperate with the UAW and the Committee and at the Committee’s request undertake such reasonable actions as will assist the Committee in the transition of responsibility for administration of the Retiree Medical Benefits by the Committee for the New Plan and the New VEBA. Such cooperation shall include assisting the Committee in educational efforts and communications with respect to the Class and the Covered Group so that they understand the terms of the New Plan, the New VEBA and the transition, and understand the claims submission process and any other initial administrative changes undertaken by the Committee. Before and after the Implementation Date, at the Committee’s request and as permitted by law, Ford shall furnish to the Committee such information and shall provide such cooperation as may be reasonably necessary to permit the Committee to effectively administer the New Plan and the New VEBA, including, without limitation, the retrieval of data in a form and to the extent maintained by Ford regarding age, amounts of pension benefits, service, pension and medical benefit eligibility, marital status, mortality, claims history, births, deaths, dependent status and enrollment information of the Class and the Covered Group. At the request of the Committee, Ford shall continue to perform the necessary eligibility work for a reasonable period of time, not to exceed 90 days after the Implementation Date in order to allow the Committee to establish and test the eligibility database, and for which Ford shall be entitled to reimbursement for reasonable costs. Ford shall also assist the Committee in transitioning benefit provider contracts to the New VEBA. Ford shall also cooperate with the UAW and the Committee and undertake such reasonable actions as will enable the Committee to perform its administrative functions with respect to the New Plan and the New VEBA, including ensuring an orderly transition from Ford administration of Retiree Medical Benefits to the New Plan and the New VEBA.

To the extent permitted by law, Ford shall also allow retiree participants to voluntarily have required contributions withheld from pension benefits and to the extent reasonably practical, credited to the Ford Separate Retiree Account of the New VEBA on a monthly basis. A retiree participant may elect or withdraw consent for pension withholdings at any time by providing 45 days written notice to the Pension Plan administrator or such shorter period that may be required by law; provided, however, that Ford will not be required to obtain new affirmative consents from existing retiree participants who provided consent pursuant to the Hardwick I Settlement Agreement to the extent that any required contributions may be withheld in accordance with such prior consent.

To the extent permitted by law, Ford shall also cooperate with the Committee to make provision for the New VEBA payments of the $76.20 Special Benefit to be incorporated into monthly Ford pension checks for eligible retirees and surviving spouses. It shall be the responsibility of the Committee and the New VEBA to advise Ford’s pension paying agent in a timely manner of eligibility changes with regard to the Special Benefit payment. The timing of the information provided to Ford’s pension paying agent shall determine the timing for the incorporation into the monthly pension check. It will be the responsibility of the Committee and the New VEBA to establish a bank account for the funding of the Special Benefit payments, and Ford’s pension paying agent will be provided with the approval to draw on that account for the payment of the benefit. The Committee and the New VEBA shall assure that the bank account is adequately funded for any and all such payments. If adequate funds do not exist for the payments, then Ford’s pension paying agent shall not make such payments until the required funding is established in the account. It will be the responsibility of the Committee and the New VEBA to audit the eligibility for, and payment of, the Special Benefit. Additionally, the Committee and the New VEBA shall be responsible for the payment of reasonable costs associated with Ford’s administration of the payment of this Special Benefit and the pension withholdings, including development of administrative and recordkeeping processes, monthly payment processing, audit and reconciliation functions and the like.

Ford shall be financially responsible for reasonable costs associated with the transition of coverage for the Class and the Covered Group to the New Plan and New VEBA. This shall include the cost of educational efforts and communications with respect to retirees, creation of administrative procedures, initial development of record sharing procedures, the testing of computer systems, vendor selection and contracting, and other activities incurred on or before the Implementation Date, including but not limited to costs associated with drafting the Trust Agreement, seeking from the Internal Revenue Service a determination of the tax-exempt status of the New VEBA, plan design and actuarial and other professional work necessary for initiation of the New Plan and New VEBA and the benefits to be provided thereunder. Ford payments described in this Section shall not reduce its payment obligations under this Settlement Agreement, and if the New VEBA is a multi-employer welfare trust, the costs described in this Section, to the extent not allocable to a specific employer, shall be pro-rated among the participating companies based on the ratio of required funding for each company. Payment of these costs shall be set forth explicitly in the Approval Order. Notwithstanding this paragraph, the Dental Benefit Eligibility & Enrollment Plan Sponsor Agreement and the Administrative Services Agreement, each by and between Ford and the Trust Committee of the Independent Health Care Trust for the UAW Retirees of Ford Motor Company, shall remain in full force and effect until otherwise terminated by the parties thereto.

B. Cooperation With Ford. The UAW and the Committee shall cooperate and shall timely furnish Ford with such information, and any schedules supporting such information, related to the New Plan and New VEBA, in a form and to the extent maintained by the UAW and the Committee, as may be reasonably necessary to permit Ford to comply with requirements of the SEC, including, but not limited to, any disclosures contemplated or agreed to with the staff of the SEC as a result of Ford’s discussions with the staff, and Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, including but not limited to SFAS 87, SFAS 106, SFAS 132R, SFAS 157, and SFAS 158 (as amended), for disclosure in Ford's financial statements and any filings with the SEC.

21.	[Reserved]

22.	Prohibited Transaction Exemptions

The parties agree that the assets of the TAA and the LLC shall not be “plan assets” of the New Plan and New VEBA unless and until actual transfer or payment to the New VEBA. The UAW, Ford, and the Class and Class Counsel acknowledge that the instrument establishing the TAA and communications to the Class regarding the TAA, shall be consistent with the principles set forth in DOL Advisory Opinions 92-02A, 92-24 and 94-31A so as to avoid the assets in the TAA being deemed “plan assets” within the meaning of ERISA. If Ford determines that the assets in the TAA and/or the LLC as described in Section 7 of this Settlement Agreement are likely to be deemed “plan assets,” Ford shall apply for a prohibited transaction exemption from the DOL to permit the acquisition and holding of the employer security in the TAA and/or the LLC. The UAW, the Class and Class Counsel shall fully cooperate with Ford in securing any such legal or regulatory approvals.

If Ford elects to transfer New Note A, New Note B, the Warrants and any Payment Shares to the New VEBA and such notes and securities are not qualifying employer securities, Ford and the New VEBA shall have received a prohibited transaction exemption or reasonable assurance of retroactive regulatory relief reasonably satisfactory to Ford and the New VEBA from the DOL that would permit the New VEBA to acquire and hold such notes and securities. Similarly, if qualifying employer securities and employer real property would exceed 10 percent of the total assets in the New VEBA immediately after transfer of New Note A, New Note B, the Warrants and any Payment Shares to the New VEBA, then Ford and the New VEBA shall have received a prohibited transaction exemption or reasonable assurance of retroactive regulatory relief reasonably satisfactory to Ford and the New VEBA from the DOL to permit the New VEBA to acquire and hold such notes and securities. The UAW, the Class and Class Counsel shall fully cooperate with Ford and the New VEBA in securing any necessary legal or regulatory approvals. If Ford and the New VEBA cannot obtain either a prohibited transaction exemption or reasonable assurance of retroactive regulatory relief reasonably satisfactory to Ford and the New VEBA prior to November 30, 2009, (i) the parties shall meet and seek to agree upon an appropriate, mutually satisfactory alternative that is (A) economically equivalent in value to the New VEBA and to Ford and (B) that does not constitute a prohibited transaction under ERISA (an “Equivalent Payment Structure”) and (ii) the parties shall be authorized without further order of the Court to adopt such Equivalent Payment Structure, in satisfaction of their rights and obligations hereunder.

23.	Indemnification

Subject to approval by the Court as part of the Amendment Approval Order, Ford hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the UAW, and its current or former officers, directors, employees and expert advisors (each, an “Indemnified Party”), to the extent permitted by law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, obligations, assessments, penalties, judgments, awards, and other liabilities related to any decision, recommendations or other actions taken prior to the date of this Settlement Agreement (collectively, “Indemnification Liabilities”), and shall fully reimburse any Indemnified Party for any and all reasonable and documented attorney fees and expenses (collectively, “Indemnity Expenses”), as and when incurred, of investigating, preparing or defending any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, arising out of or in connection with any Indemnification Liabilities incurred as a result of an Indemnified Party’s entering into, or participation in the negotiations for, this Settlement Agreement and the MOU and the transactions contemplated in connection herewith; provided, however, that such indemnity shall not apply to any portion of any such Indemnification Liability or Indemnity Expense that resulted from the gross negligence, illegal or willful misconduct by an Indemnified Party; provided, further, that such indemnity shall not apply to any Indemnification Liabilities to a Ford Active Employee for breach of the duty of fair representation.

Nothing in this Section 23 or any provision of this Settlement Agreement shall be construed to provide an indemnity for any member or any actions of the Committee; provided however, that an Indemnified Party who becomes a member of the Committee shall remain entitled to any indemnity to which the Indemnified Party would otherwise be entitled pursuant to this Section 23 for actions taken, or for a failure to take actions, in any capacity other than as a member of the Committee; and provided further, that nothing in this Section 23 or any other provision of this Settlement Agreement shall be construed to provide an indemnity for any Indemnification Liabilities or Indemnity Expenses relating to (i) management of the assets of the New VEBA or (ii) for any action, amendment or omission of the Committee with respect to the provision and administration of Retiree Medical Benefits.

If an Indemnified Party receives notice of any action, proceeding or claim as to which the Indemnified Party proposes to demand indemnification hereunder, it shall provide Ford prompt written notice thereof. Failure by an Indemnified Party to so notify Ford shall relieve Ford from the obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party hereunder only to the extent that Ford suffers actual prejudice as a result of such failure, but Ford shall not be obligated to provide reimbursement for any Indemnity Expenses incurred for work performed prior to its receipt of written notice of the claim. If an Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder, Ford shall have the right to participate in such proceeding or elect to assume the defense of such action or proceeding at its own expense and through counsel chosen by Ford (such counsel being reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party). The Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense. Upon the assumption by Ford of the defense of any such action or proceeding, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in, but not control the defense of, such action and retain its own counsel but the expenses and fees shall be at its expense unless (a) Ford has agreed to pay such Indemnity Expenses, (b) Ford shall have failed to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to an Indemnified Party in a timely manner, or (c) the Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that there are actual or potential conflicting interests between Ford and the Indemnified Party that require separate representation, and Ford has agreed that such actual or potential conflict exists (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld); provided, however, that Ford shall not, in connection with any such action or proceeding arising out of the same general allegations, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate law firm at any time for all Indemnified Parties not having actual or potential conflicts among them, except to the extent that local counsel, in addition to its regular counsel, is required in order to effectively defend against such action or proceeding. All such fees and expenses shall be invoiced to Ford, with such detail and supporting information as Ford may reasonably require, in such intervals as Ford shall require under its standard billing processes.

If the Indemnified Party receives notice from Ford that Ford has elected to assume the defense of the action or proceeding, Ford will not be liable for any attorney fees or other legal expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the matter.

Ford shall not be liable for any settlement of any claim against an Indemnified Party made without Ford’s written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Ford shall not, without the prior written consent of an Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, settle or compromise any claim, or permit a default or consent to the entry of any judgment, that would create any financial obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party not otherwise within the scope of the indemnified liabilities.

The termination of this Settlement Agreement shall not affect the indemnity provided hereunder, which shall remain operative and in full force and effect. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 23 to the contrary, this Section 23 of the Settlement Agreement shall not be applicable with respect to any of the matters covered by Article VI of the Securityholder and Registration Rights Agreement.

24.	Costs and Attorneys Fees

A. Fees and Expenses. Ford agrees to support the application by the UAW and Class Counsel to the Court for reimbursement by Ford of reasonable attorney and professional fees and expenses based on hours worked and determined in accordance with the current market rates (not to include any upward adjustments such as any lodestar multipliers, risk enhancements, success fee, completion bonus or rate premiums) incurred in connection with the court proceedings to obtain the Approval Order and the Amendment Approval Order and any appeals therefrom. Approval of these fee requests shall be included in the Approval Order or the Amendment Approval Order, as applicable.

B. Fees After the Final Effective Date. Except for fees and expenses incurred in connection with the court proceedings to obtain the Amendment Approval Order and any appeals therefrom, each party to this Settlement Agreement agrees not to seek any other future fees or expenses from any other party in connection with either Hardwick II or Hardwick I. The Class Representatives or any other party prevailing in any action to enforce the terms of this Settlement Agreement may seek such fees and costs as may be allowed by law.

25.	Releases and Certain Related Matters

A.	[RESERVED]

B. UAW Releasees. As of the Amendment Effective Date, each UAW Releasee releases and forever discharges each other UAW Releasee and each other Indemnified Party and shall be forever released and discharged with respect to any and all rights, claims or causes of action that such UAW Releasee had, has or hereafter may have, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, concealed or hidden, arising out of or based upon or otherwise related to (a) any of the claims arising, or which could have been raised, in connection with either Hardwick I or Hardwick II concerning the provision of Retiree Medical Benefits and the terms of this Settlement Agreement, (b) any claims that this Settlement Agreement, or any document referred to or contemplated herein, is not in compliance with applicable laws and regulations, and (c) any action taken to carry out this Settlement Agreement in accordance with this Settlement Agreement and applicable law.

C. Ford. As of the Amendment Effective Date, the UAW Releasees release and forever discharge Ford, and its officers, directors, employees, agents, subsidiaries, Affiliates, and the Ford Retiree Health Plan and its fiduciaries, with respect to any and all rights, claims or causes of action that any UAW Releasee had, has or hereafter may have, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, concealed or hidden, arising out of, based upon or otherwise related to (a) any of the claims arising, or which could have been raised, in connection with Hardwick I or Hardwick II concerning the provision of Retiree Medical Benefits and the terms of this Settlement Agreement, (b) any claims that this Settlement Agreement, or any document referred to or contemplated herein, is not in compliance with applicable laws and regulations, and (c) any action taken to carry out this Settlement Agreement in accordance with this Settlement Agreement and applicable law.

D. Existing Internal VEBA and Existing External VEBA. As of the Amendment Effective Date, the UAW Releasees release and forever discharge the Existing External VEBA and the fiduciaries, trustees, and committee that administer the Existing External VEBA, and the Existing Internal VEBA and the fiduciaries, trustees, and committee that administer the Existing Internal VEBA with respect to any and all rights, claims or causes of action that any UAW Releasee had, has or hereafter may have, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, concealed or hidden, arising out of, based upon or otherwise related to (a) any of the claims arising, or which could have been raised, in connection with Hardwick I or Hardwick II concerning the provision of Retiree Medical Benefits and the terms of this Settlement Agreement, (b) any claims that this Settlement Agreement, of any document referred to or contemplated herein, is not in compliance with applicable laws and regulations, and (c) any action taken by such fiduciaries, trustee and/or committees to carry out this Settlement Agreement and to transfer assets of the Existing External VEBA and Existing Internal VEBA to the New VEBA in accordance with this Settlement Agreement and applicable law.

E. Representatives and Class Counsel. As of the Amendment Effective Date, Ford releases and forever discharges the Class Representatives and Class Counsel from any and all claims, demands, liabilities, causes of action or other obligations of whatever nature, including attorney fees, whether known or unknown, that arise from their participation or involvement with respect to the filing of the Hardwick II lawsuit or in the negotiations leading to this Settlement Agreement. This release does not extend to obligations arising from the terms of the Settlement Agreement itself.

F. No Admission. Neither the entry into the 2008 Settlement Agreement or this Settlement Agreement nor the consent to the Approval Order or the Amendment Approval Order is, may be construed as, or may be used as, an Admission by or against Ford or any UAW Releasee of any fault, wrongdoing or liability whatsoever.

26.	Dispute Resolution

A. Coverage. Any controversy or dispute arising out of or relating to, or involving the enforcement, implementation, application or interpretation of this Settlement Agreement shall be enforceable only by Ford, the Committee, the UAW, and if prior to the Implementation Date, Class Counsel, and the Amendment Approval Order will provide that the Court will retain exclusive jurisdiction to resolve any such disputes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any disputes relating solely to eligibility for participation or entitlement to benefits under the New Plan shall be resolved in accordance with the applicable procedures such Plan shall establish, and nothing in this Settlement Agreement precludes Class Members from pursuing appropriate judicial review regarding such disputes; provided however, that no claims incurred after the Implementation Date related to Retiree Medical Benefits may be brought against Ford, any of its Affiliates, or the Ford Retiree Health Plan.

B. Attempt at Resolution. Although the Court retains exclusive jurisdiction to resolve disputes arising out of or relating to the enforcement, implementation, application or interpretation of this Settlement Agreement, the parties agree that prior to seeking recourse to the Court, the parties shall attempt to resolve the dispute through the following process:

(i)

The aggrieved party shall provide the party alleged to have violated this Settlement Agreement (“Dispute Party”) with written notice of such dispute, which shall include a description of the alleged violation and identification of the Section(s) of the Settlement Agreement allegedly violated. Such notice shall be provided so that it is received by the Dispute Party no later than 180 calendar days from the date of the alleged violation or the date on which the aggrieved party knew or should have known of the facts that give rise to the alleged violation, whichever is later, but in no event longer than 3 years from the date of the alleged violation.

(ii)

If the Dispute Party fails to respond within 21 calendar days from its receipt of the notice, the aggrieved party may seek recourse to the Court; provided however, that the aggrieved party waives all claims related to a particular dispute against the Dispute Party if the aggrieved party fails to bring the dispute before the Court within 180 calendar days from the date of sending the notice.

All the time periods in this Section 26 of this Settlement Agreement may be extended by agreement of the parties to the particular dispute.

C. Alternate Means of Resolution. Nothing in this Section shall preclude Ford, the UAW, the Committee, or Class Counsel from agreeing on any other form of alternative dispute resolution or from agreeing to any extensions of the time periods specified in this Section 26.

27.	[RESERVED]

28.	[RESERVED]

29.	No Admission; No Prejudice

A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, whether set forth in the 2008 Settlement Agreement, this Settlement Agreement, the MOU, the VEBA Term Sheet, the Approval Order, the Amendment Approval Order, the Notice Order, any documents filed with the Court in either Hardwick I or Hardwick II, any documents, whether provided in the course of or in any manner whatsoever relating to the 2007 discussions between Ford and UAW with respect to health care benefits or relating to this Settlement Agreement or the MOU, whether distributed, otherwise made available to or obtained by any person or organization, including without limitation, Ford Active Employees, Class Members, or their spouses, surviving spouses or dependents, or to the UAW or Ford in the course of the negotiations that led to entry into this Settlement Agreement, or otherwise:

(i)

Ford. Ford denies and continues to deny any wrongdoing or legal liability arising out of any of the allegations, claims and contentions made against Ford in Hardwick I or Hardwick II and in the course of the negotiation of the MOU or this Settlement Agreement. Neither the MOU, nor any disputes or discussions between Ford and the UAW with respect to health care benefits or entry into this Settlement Agreement occurring on or after January 1, 2007, nor this Settlement Agreement, nor any document referred to or contemplated herein, nor any action taken to carry out this Settlement Agreement, nor any retiree health care benefits provided hereunder or any action related in any way to the ongoing administration of such retiree health care benefits (collectively, the “Settlement Actions”) may be construed as, or may be viewed or used as, an Admission by or against Ford of any fault, wrongdoing or liability whatsoever, or as an Admission by Ford of the validity of any claim or argument made by or on behalf of the UAW, Active Employees, the Class or the Covered Group, that retiree health benefits are vested. Without limiting in any manner whatsoever the generality of the foregoing, the performance of any Settlement Actions by Ford may not be construed, viewed or used as an Admission by or against Ford that, following the termination of the Hardwick I Settlement Agreement, it does not have the unilateral right to modify or terminate retiree health care benefits.

(ii)

UAW, Representatives, Class Members. Each of the UAW, the Class Representatives and the Class Members claim and continue to claim that the allegations, claims and contentions made against Ford in Hardwick II have merit. Neither this Settlement Agreement nor any document referred to or contemplated herein nor any Settlement Actions may be construed as, or may be viewed or used as, an Admission by or against any of the UAW, the Class Representatives or the Class Members of any fault, wrongdoing or liability whatsoever or of the validity of any claim or argument made by or on behalf of Ford that Ford has a unilateral right to modify or terminate retiree health care benefits or that retiree health care benefits are not vested. Without limiting in any manner whatsoever the generality of the foregoing, the performance of any Settlement Actions by any of the UAW, the Class Representatives or the Class Members, including without limitation, the acceptance of any retiree health care benefits under any of the Ford health care plans set forth in this Settlement Agreement, may not be construed, viewed or used as an Admission by or against any of the UAW, the Class Representatives or the Class that, following the termination of the Hardwick I Settlement Agreement, Ford has the unilateral right to modify or terminate retiree health care benefits.

(iii)

There has been no determination by any court as to the factual allegations made against Ford in Hardwick I or Hardwick II. Entering into this Settlement Agreement and performance of any of the Settlement Actions shall not be construed as, or deemed to be evidence of, an Admission by any of the parties hereto, and shall not be offered or received in evidence in any action or proceeding against any party hereto in any court, administrative agency or other tribunal or forum for any purpose whatsoever other than to enforce the provisions of this Settlement Agreement or to obtain or seek approval of this Settlement Agreement in accordance with Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and the Class Action Fairness Act of 2005.

For the purposes of this Section 29, Ford and the UAW refer to Ford Motor Company and the “International Union, United Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of America”, respectively, as organizations, as well as any and all of their respective current or former directors, officers, employees, and agents.

B. This Settlement Agreement and anything occurring in connection with reaching this Settlement Agreement are without prejudice to Ford, the UAW and the Class. It is intended that Ford, the UAW, the Committee, the Class Representatives, the Class, Class Counsel and the Covered Group shall not use this Settlement Agreement, or anything occurring in connection with reaching this Settlement Agreement, as evidence against Ford, the UAW, the Class or the Covered Group in any circumstance except where the parties are operating under or enforcing this Settlement Agreement or the Judgment approving this Settlement Agreement.

30.	Duration and Termination of Settlement Agreement

A. If Hardwick II is enjoined or stayed, either Ford, the UAW, or Class Counsel on behalf of the Class Representatives may terminate this Settlement Agreement by 30 days’ written notice to the other party; provided however, that this Settlement Agreement may not be terminated pursuant to this subparagraph A if Hardwick II is stayed by the parties because this Settlement Agreement is approved as a superseding settlement through the Hardwick I litigation.

B. If any court, agency or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction issues a determination that any part of this Settlement Agreement is prohibited or unenforceable, Ford, the UAW, or Class Counsel, acting on behalf of the Class, may terminate this Settlement Agreement by 30 days’ written notice to the other party.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sections 7.F, 8.F, 9.A, 9.B and 9.C to the extent these Sections create rights and obligations relating to the non-occurrence of the Implementation Date as well as Sections 22, 23, 26 and 29, shall survive the termination of this Settlement Agreement.

31.	National Institute for Health Care Reform

In recognition of the interest of Ford, the UAW, the Class and the Covered Group in improving the quality, affordability, and accountability of health care in the United States, the parties agree that as a part of this settlement Ford and the UAW shall establish a National Institute for Health Care Reform (“Institute”). The Institute shall be established and receive its first annual funding payment as soon as practicable after the Final Effective Date on the basis set forth in the term sheet attached as Exhibit B to this Settlement Agreement. The annual funding payment shall be payable in four equal quarterly installments. The funding and operation of the Institute shall be separate, independent and distinct from the New Plan and the New VEBA. Any payments by Ford to the Institute shall be governed exclusively by the term sheet attached as Exhibit B to this Settlement Agreement and are not in any way related to Ford’s payment obligations as described in Sections 8 and 12 of this Settlement Agreement. Additionally, Section 19 of this Settlement Agreement shall not apply to any obligation Ford may have to make payments with regard to the Institute.

In addition, the UAW and Ford will work actively with the Presidential Task Force created under the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 to deal with restructuring in the automobile industry (the “Presidential Task Force”), and will encourage the Presidential Task Force to take or recommend actions mutually acceptable to the UAW and Ford to support the New VEBA and provide additional security to the retirees covered thereby in whatever form possible.

32.	Other Provisions

A. References in this Settlement Agreement to “Sections,” “Paragraphs” and “Exhibits” refer to the Sections, Paragraphs, and Exhibits of this Settlement Agreement unless otherwise specified.

B. The Court shall, subject to Section 26 of this Settlement Agreement, retain exclusive jurisdiction to resolve any disputes relating to or arising out of or in connection with the enforcement, interpretation or implementation of this Settlement Agreement. Each of the parties hereto expressly and irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of the Court and expressly waives any argument it may have with respect to venue or forum non conveniens.

C. This Settlement Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties regarding the matters set forth herein, and no representations, warranties or inducements have been made to any party concerning this Settlement Agreement, other than representations, warranties and covenants contained and memorialized in this Settlement Agreement. This Settlement Agreement supersedes any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or between the parties, written or oral, regarding the matters set forth in this Settlement Agreement, including, without limitation, the 2008 Settlement Agreement.

D. The captions used in this Settlement Agreement are for convenience of reference only and do not constitute a part of this Settlement Agreement and will not be deemed to limit, characterize or in any way affect any provision of this Settlement Agreement, and all provisions of this Settlement Agreement will be enforced and construed as if no captions had been used in this Settlement Agreement.

E. The Class Representatives expressly authorize Class Counsel to take all appropriate action required or permitted to be taken by the Class Representatives pursuant to this Settlement Agreement to effectuate its terms and also expressly authorize Class Counsel to enter into any non-material modifications or amendments to this Settlement Agreement on behalf of them that Class Counsel deems appropriate from the date this Settlement Agreement is signed until the Amendment Effective Date; provided, however, that the effectiveness of any such amendment which adversely impacts the level of benefits to any Class Member as well as any material amendment shall be subject to the approval of the Court.

F. This Settlement Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts. All executed counterparts and each of them shall be deemed to be one and the same instrument, provided that counsel for the parties to this Settlement Agreement shall exchange among themselves original signed counterparts.

G. No party to this Settlement Agreement may assign any of its rights hereunder without the prior written consent of the other parties, and any purported assignment in violation of this sentence shall be void. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

H. Each of Ford, the UAW, the Committee, Class Representatives, Class Members and the Class Counsel shall do any and all acts and things, and shall execute and deliver any and all documents, as may be necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of this Settlement Agreement.

I. This Settlement Agreement shall be construed in accordance with applicable federal laws of the United States of America.

J. Any provision of this Settlement Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. To the extent any provision of this Settlement Agreement is invalid or unenforceable as provided for in this Section 32.J of this Settlement Agreement, it shall be replaced by a valid and enforceable provision agreed to by Ford, the UAW and Class Counsel (which agreement shall not be unreasonably withheld) that preserves the same economic effect for the parties under this Settlement Agreement; provided however, that to the extent that such prohibited or unenforceable provision cannot be replaced as contemplated and the consequences of such prohibited or unenforceable provision causes this Settlement Agreement to fail of its essential purpose then this Settlement Agreement may be voided at the sole discretion of the party seeking the benefit of the prohibited or unenforceable provision. Class Counsel is expressly authorized to take all appropriate action to implement this provision.

K. In the event that any payment referenced in this Settlement Agreement is due to be made on a weekend or a holiday, the payment shall be made on the first business day following such weekend or holiday.

L. In the event that any legal or regulatory approvals are required to effectuate the provisions of this Settlement Agreement, Ford, the UAW, the Class, Class Counsel, and the Committee shall fully cooperate in securing any such legal or regulatory approvals.

M. Any notice, request, information or other document to be given under this Settlement Agreement to any of the parties by any other party shall be in writing and delivered personally, or sent by Federal Express or other carrier which guarantees next-day delivery, transmitted by facsimile, transmitted by email if in an Adobe Acrobat PDF file, or sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, at the following addresses. All such notices and communication shall be effective when delivered by hand, or, in the case of registered or certified mail, Federal Express or other carrier, upon receipt, or, in the case of facsimile or email transmission, when transmitted (provided, however, that any notice or communication transmitted by facsimile or email shall be immediately confirmed by a telephone call to the recipient.):

SECURITYHOLDER AND REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

(c) The Holder represents and warrants that it, together with its investment managers, has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Registrable Instruments.

ARTICLE 3

Right of First Offer

Section 3.01. Offer Notice. If at any time the Holder proposes to Transfer Registrable Instruments pursuant to Section 2.02(a)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv), the Holder shall promptly give the Company written notice of such intention to make the Transfer (the “Offer Notice”). The Offer Notice shall include (i) a description of the Registrable Instruments proposed to be Transferred, (ii) the proposed method of distribution therefor and (iii) the number of such Registrable Instruments proposed to be Transferred (the “Offered Instruments”).

Section 3.02. Company’s Right of First Offer. (a)The Company shall have an option for a period of ten (10) days from delivery of the Offer Notice (the “Option Period”) to elect to offer to purchase all or any portion of the Offered Instruments. The Company may exercise such election option by notifying the Holder in writing before expiration of the Option Period (the “Option Exercise Notice”) as to (i) the number of such Offered Instruments that it wishes to purchase (the “Elected Instruments”), (ii) the cash purchase price that it proposes to pay the Holder for such Elected Instruments (the “Offer Price”) and (iii) the material terms and conditions upon which the proposed purchase would be made. The Option Exercise Notice shall constitute an offer to purchase the number of Elected Instruments indicated in the Option Exercise Notice from the Holder at the cash Offer Price and on the other terms and conditions set forth in the Option Exercise Notice. The Holder shall have ten (10) days to accept, in writing, in whole and not in part, the offer (if any) made by the Company in the Option Exercise Notice.

(b) If the Holder does not accept the Company’s offer, the Holder shall be entitled to Transfer all or any portion of the Offered Instruments, subject to the other terms of this Agreement (including Section 2.02 and Section 5.05(a)), to a purchaser or purchasers on terms and conditions that are not less favorable to the Holder than those set forth in the Option Exercise Notice (and that are no more favorable to the purchaser or purchasers) in the Holder’s reasonable judgment; provided, that such Transfer of all or any portion of the Offered Instruments to the purchaser or purchasers is completed within one hundred twenty (120) days after delivery of the Offer Notice to the Company. If at the end of the one hundred twenty (120) day period, the Holder has not completed the Transfer of the Offered Instruments, the Holder shall no longer be permitted to Transfer any of such Offered Instruments without again fully complying with the provisions of this Article 3.

(c) If the Company (x) does not deliver an Option Exercise Notice to the Holder before the expiration of the Option Period, or (y) elects to offer to purchase less than all of such Offered Instruments, the Holder shall be entitled to Transfer (1) all or any portion of the Offered Instruments (in the case of clause (x) above), or (2) any portion of the Offered Instruments that do not constitute Elected Instruments (in the case of clause (y) above), in each case subject to the other terms of this Agreement (including Section 2.02 and Section 5.05(a)), to a purchaser or purchasers on any terms and conditions; provided, that such Transfer of the Offered Instruments to the purchaser or purchasers is completed within one hundred twenty (120) days after delivery of the Offer Notice to the Company. If at the end of the one hundred twenty (120) day period, the Holder has not completed the Transfer of the Offered Instruments, the Holder shall no longer be permitted to Transfer any of such Offered Instruments without again fully complying with the provisions of this Article 3.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not have the right to purchase all or any portion of any Common Stock constituting Offered Instruments pursuant to Section 3.02(a) if the Holder elects to Transfer such Common Stock in an open market transaction at the then current market price of such Common Stock.

Section 3.03. Payment. If the Holder accepts in whole within ten (10) days any offer made by the Company in the Option Exercise Notice, then payment by the Company for the Elected Instruments shall be made in cash by check or wire transfer at a time and place agreed upon between the parties, which shall be no later than sixty (60) days after delivery to the Company of the Offer Notice; provided, however, that in the event the Company is unable to effectuate such closing due to legal and/or contractual prohibitions applicable to the Company or the transaction, the Company shall have the right to extend such deadline for the closing for up to an additional thirty (30) days. For the avoidance of doubt, any obligation of the Company to effectuate such closing with respect to the Elected Instruments shall be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Option Exercise Notice.

Section 3.04. Assignment of Right of First Offer. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company may assign its rights and obligations under this Article 3 to any Person without the consent of the Holder; provided, that the Company shall be liable to the Holder for any breach of, or failure to comply with, this Article 3 by any such assignee.

ARTICLE 4

Voting Agreement

Section 4.01. Agreement to Vote. The Holder irrevocably and unconditionally hereby agrees that from and after the date hereof until the date of termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, at any meeting (whether annual or special and each adjourned or postponed meeting) of the Company’s stockholders, however called, or in connection with any written consent of the Company’s stockholders, the Holder will (i) appear at such meeting or otherwise cause any and all issued Underlying Shares held or beneficially owned by the Holder to be counted as present thereat for purposes of calculating a quorum and (ii) vote or cause to be voted (including by written consent, if applicable) such issued Underlying Shares held or beneficially owned by the Holder as of the relevant time (“Owned Shares”) on each matter presented to the stockholders of the Company as follows:

(a) In the case of any proposed amendments to, or restatements of, the Governing Instruments that are proposed by the Company to (x) facilitate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (y) to bring the Governing Instruments into conformity with this Agreement, in either case as may be determined by the Board in its discretion, “for” such proposal; and

(b) In the case of any other matter presented to the stockholders of the Company, in the same proportionate manner (either “for,” “against,” “withheld” or otherwise) as (x) in the case of proposed stockholder action at a meeting of the Company’s stockholders, the holders of Common Stock (other than the Holder and its Affiliates) that were present and entitled to vote on such matter voted in connection with each such matter and (y) in the case of proposed stockholder action by written consent, all the holders of Common Stock (other than the Holder and its Affiliates) that consented or did not consent in connection with each such matter.

Section 4.02. Irrevocable Proxy. The Holder hereby revokes any and all previous proxies granted with respect to its Owned Shares. Subject to the last two sentences of this Section 4.02, upon the request of the Company and subject to applicable law, the Holder shall, or shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause any Person serving as the nominee (the “Nominee”) of the Holder with respect to its Owned Shares to, irrevocably appoint the Company or its designee as the Holder’s proxy to vote (or cause to be voted) its Owned Shares in accordance with Section 4.01 hereof. Such proxy shall be irrevocable and coupled with an interest and shall be granted in consideration of the Company entering into this Agreement and the other arrangements covered by the Settlement Agreement. In the event that any Nominee for any reason fails to irrevocably appoint the Company or its designee as the Holder’s proxy in accordance with this Section 4.02, the Holder shall cause such Nominee to vote its Owned Shares in accordance with Section 4.01 hereof. In the event that the Holder or any Nominee fails for any reason to vote its Owned Shares in accordance with the requirements of Section 4.01 hereof, then the Company or its designee shall have the right to vote the Holder’s Owned Shares in accordance with Section 4.01. Subject to applicable law, the vote of the Company or its designee shall control in any conflict between the vote by the Company or its designee of the Holder’s Owned Shares and a vote by the Holder (or any Nominee on behalf of the Holder) of its Owned Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the proxy granted by the Holder and/or any Nominee shall be automatically revoked upon termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms.

Section 4.03. Inconsistent Voting Agreements. The Holder hereby agrees that the Holder shall not enter into any agreement, contract or understanding with any Person prior to the termination of this Agreement directly or indirectly to vote, grant a proxy or power of attorney or give instructions with respect to the voting of the Holder’s Owned Shares in any manner which is inconsistent with this Agreement.

ARTICLE 5

Registration Rights

Section 5.01. Shelf Registration. (a) Subject to Section 5.04, as promptly as practicable after delivery of the Instruments, the Company shall file with the SEC a Shelf Registration Statement relating to the offer and sale of all of the Registrable Instruments held by the Holder from time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution elected by the Holder and set forth in the Shelf Registration Statement and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after the filing thereof.

(b) Subject to Section 5.04, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep such Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act in order to permit the Prospectus forming a part thereof to be usable by the Holder until the earlier of (i) the date as of which all Registrable Instruments have been sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement or another registration statement filed under the Securities Act (but in no event prior to the applicable period referred to in Section 4(3) of the Securities Act and Rule 174 thereunder) and (ii) the date as of which the Holder is permitted to sell its Registrable Instruments without registration pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act without volume limitation or other restrictions on transfer thereunder (such period of effectiveness, the “Shelf Period”). The Company shall not be deemed to have used its reasonable best efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective during the Shelf Period if the Company voluntarily takes any action or omits to take any action that would result in the Holder not being able to offer and sell any Registrable Instruments pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement, unless such action or omission is required by applicable law. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to remain a well-known seasoned issuer (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) (and not to become an ineligible issuer (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act)) during the Shelf Period; provided that the Company shall be permitted to defer interest or dividends in respect of any securities under which such deferral is permitted or contemplated.

(c) At any time that a Shelf Registration Statement covering Registrable Instruments pursuant to this Section 5.01 is effective, if the Holder delivers a notice to the Company (a “Shelf Take-Down Notice”) stating that the Holder intends to effect an offering of all or part of the Registrable Instruments included by the Holder on the Shelf Registration Statement (a “Shelf Offering”) and stating the number or dollar amount of the Registrable Instruments to be included in such Shelf Offering, then the Company shall amend or supplement the Shelf Registration Statement as may be necessary in order to enable such Registrable Instruments and Other Instruments, as the case may be, to be distributed pursuant to the Shelf Offering as contemplated by the Shelf Take-Down Notice (taking into account, in the case of any underwritten public Shelf Offering, the inclusion of Other Securities by any other holders).

(d) The number of Shelf Offerings (together with any Demand Registrations) in any 12-month period shall not exceed two, and the Holder shall not be entitled to initiate a Shelf Offering unless the Holder has requested to offer at least the lesser of (A) 50 million Underlying Shares (inclusive of Underlying Shares underlying any Warrants requested to offer) or (B) Registrable Instruments having a fair market value (based (i) in the case of any Underlying Shares included in the request, upon the closing price of the Underlying Shares quoted on the principal securities exchange on which such Underlying Shares are listed on the trading day immediately preceding the date upon which the Holder delivers a Shelf Take-Down Notice to the Company and (ii) in the case of any Warrants included in the request, upon the value of the Underlying Shares based upon the closing price of the Underlying Shares quoted on the principal securities exchange on which such Underlying Shares are listed on the trading day immediately preceding the date upon which the Holder delivers a Shelf Take-Down Notice to the Company) of $500 million in such Shelf Offering.

(e) The Holder may withdraw its Registrable Instruments from a Shelf Offering at any time by providing the Company with written notice. Upon receipt of such written notice, the Company shall cease all efforts to secure registration; provided, however, such registration shall nonetheless be deemed a Shelf Offering for all purposes hereunder unless (i) the withdrawal is made following the occurrence of a Material Adverse Change not known to the Holder at the time of the Shelf-Take Down Notice, (ii) the withdrawal is made because the registration would require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure or (iii) the Holder has paid or reimbursed the Company for all of the reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by the Company in the preparation, filing and processing of the withdrawn registration.

(f) The Company shall, from time to time, supplement and amend the Shelf Registration Statement if required by the Securities Act, including the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Company for such Shelf Registration Statement.

(g) If an underwritten public Shelf Offering is subject to a Share Limitation, then there shall be included in such offering the number or dollar amount of Registrable Instruments requested to be included in such registration by the Holder (and any Other Instruments requested to be included therein by the holders thereof) that in the opinion of the underwriter selected by the Company can be sold without adversely affecting the price, timing, distribution or marketability of such offering, and such number or dollar amount of securities shall be allocated for inclusion pro rata among the holders of all such securities (including the Registrable Instruments of the Holder) on the basis of the number of securities of the Company owned by each such holder.

(h) In connection with an underwritten public Shelf Offering, the Holder shall have the right to select a nationally recognized underwriter as the lead or managing underwriter and the Company shall have the right to select a nationally recognized underwriter as the co-manager of such underwritten public Shelf Offering, in each case, who shall be reasonably acceptable to the other party. In connection with any such underwritten public Shelf Offering, the Holder and the Company agree that they will each enter into a customary underwriting agreement with the underwriters selected pursuant to the preceding sentence, such underwriting agreement to be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company, the Holder and the underwriters (it being understood that the Holder shall not be required to make any representations and warranties other than with respect to itself, its ownership of the Registrable Instruments and its intended method of distribution thereof and shall not be required to provide an indemnity other than with respect to information it provides to the Company in writing expressly for use in such underwritten Shelf Offering, and any such indemnity shall be limited in amount to the net proceeds of such Shelf Offering actually received by the Holder). The Holder and the Company agree that (i) an equivalent number or dollar amount of Registrable Instruments shall be sold through the lead or managing underwriter selected by the Holder and the underwriter selected by the Company in any underwritten public Shelf Offering and (ii) all decisions regarding whether a Share Limitation is necessary shall be made in the sole discretion of the underwriter selected by the Company.

Section 5.02. Demand Registrations. (a) If, following the date hereof, the Company is unable to file, cause to be effective or maintain the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration Statement as required under Section 5.01, the Holder shall have the right by delivering a written notice to the Company (a “Demand Notice”) to require the Company to, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, register under and in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act the number of Registrable Instruments Beneficially Owned by the Holder and requested by such Demand Notice to be so registered (a “Demand Registration”); provided, however, that (i) the number of Demand Registrations (together with any Shelf Offerings) in any 12-month period shall not exceed two and (ii) the Company shall not be required to register the Registrable Instruments requested by the Demand Notice unless the Holder has requested to offer at least the lesser of (A) 50 million Underlying Shares (inclusive of Underlying Shares underlying any Instruments requested to offer) or (B) Registrable Instruments having a fair market value (based (i) in the case of any Underlying Shares included in the request, upon the closing price of the Underlying Shares quoted on the principal securities exchange on which such Underlying Shares are listed on the trading day immediately preceding the date upon which the Holder delivers a Demand Notice to the Company and (ii) in the case of any Warrants included in the request, upon the value of the Underlying Shares based upon the closing price of the Underlying Shares quoted on the principal securities exchange on which such Underlying Shares are listed on the trading day immediately preceding the date upon which the Holder delivers a Demand Notice to the Company) of $500 million in such Demand Registration. The Demand Notice shall also specify the expected method or methods of disposition of the applicable Registrable Instruments.

(b) Subject to Section 5.04, following receipt of a Demand Notice, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to file, as promptly as reasonably practicable, a Registration Statement relating to the offer and sale of the Registrable Instruments requested to be included therein by the Holder (and any Other Instruments requested to be included therein by the holders thereof) in accordance with the methods of distribution elected by the Holder in the Demand Notice (a “Demand Registration Statement”) and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after the filing thereof.

(c) The Holder may withdraw its Registrable Instruments from a Demand Registration at any time by providing the Company with written notice. Upon receipt of such written notice, the Company shall cease all efforts to secure registration; provided, however, such registration shall nonetheless be deemed a Demand Registration for all purposes hereunder unless (i) the withdrawal is made following the occurrence of a Material Adverse Change not known to the Holder at the time of the Demand Notice, (ii) the withdrawal is made because the registration would require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure or (iii) the Holder has paid or reimbursed the Company for all of the reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by the Company in the preparation, filing and processing of the withdrawn registration.

(d) If any of the Registrable Instruments to be registered pursuant to a Demand Registration Statement are to be sold in an underwritten public offering, and such offering is subject to a Share Limitation, then there shall be included in such offering the number or dollar amount of Registrable Instruments of the same class requested to be included in such registration by the Holder (and any Other Instruments requested to be included therein by the holders thereof) that in the opinion of the underwriter selected by the Company can be sold without adversely affecting the price, timing, distribution or marketability of such offering, and such number or dollar amount of securities shall be allocated for inclusion pro rata among the holders of all such securities (including the Registrable Instruments of the Holder) on the basis of the number of such securities of the Company owned by each such holder.

(e) In connection with an underwritten public offering pursuant to a Demand Registration, the Holder shall have the right to select a nationally recognized underwriter as the lead or managing underwriter and the Company shall have the right to select a nationally recognized underwriter as the co-manager of such underwritten public offering, in each case, who shall be reasonably acceptable to the other party. In connection with any such underwritten public offering, the Holder and the Company agree that they will each enter into a customary underwriting agreement with the underwriters selected pursuant to the preceding sentence, such underwriting agreement to be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company, the Holder and the underwriters (it being understood that the Holder shall not be required to make any representations and warranties other than with respect to itself, its ownership of the Registrable Instruments and its intended method of distribution thereof and shall not be required to provide an indemnity other than with respect to information it provides to the Company in writing expressly for use in such underwritten public offering pursuant to a Demand Registration, and any such indemnity shall be limited in amount to the net proceeds of such underwritten public offering pursuant to a Demand Registration actually received by the Holder). The Holder and the Company agree that (i) an equivalent number or dollar amount of Registrable Instruments shall be sold through the lead or managing underwriter selected by the Holder and the underwriter selected by the Company in any underwritten public offering pursuant to a Demand Registration and (ii) all decisions regarding whether a Share Limitation is necessary shall be made in the sole discretion of the underwriter selected by the Company.

Section 5.03. Piggyback Registration. (a) If the Company proposes or is required to file a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of Common Stock for its own account (other than (i) a registration statement filed pursuant to Section 5.01, (ii) a registration statement filed pursuant to Section 5.02, (iii) a registration statement on Form S-4 or S-8 or any successors thereto, (iv) a registration statement covering securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock (other than Registrable Instruments) or (v) a registration statement covering an offering of securities solely to the Company’s existing stockholders or otherwise in connection with any offer to exchange securities), then the Company shall give prompt written notice of such proposed filing at least 30 days before the anticipated filing date (the “Piggyback Notice”) to the Holder. The Piggyback Notice shall offer the Holder the opportunity to include in such registration statement the number of Registrable Instruments (for purposes of this Section 5.03, “Registrable Instruments” shall be deemed to mean solely securities of the same type as those proposed to be offered by the Company for its own account) as they may request (a “Piggyback Registration”). Subject to Section 5.03(b), the Company shall include in each such Piggyback Registration all Registrable Instruments with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within 15 days after notice has been given to the Holder. The Holder shall be permitted to withdraw all or part of the Registrable Instruments from a Piggyback Registration at any time up to the pricing date.

(b) If any of the shares of Common Stock to be registered pursuant to the registration giving rise to the Holder’s rights under this Section 5.03 are to be sold in an underwritten public offering, the Holder shall (subject to Section 2.02) be permitted to include all Registrable Instruments requested to be included in such registration in such offering on the same terms and conditions as any other Registrable Instruments, if any, of the Company included therein; provided, that if such offering is subject to a Share Limitation, then there shall be included in such offering: (i) first, the number or dollar amount of securities the Company proposes to sell and (ii) second, the number or dollar amount of Registrable Instruments requested to be included in such registration by the Holder (and any Other Instruments requested to be included therein by the holders thereof) that in the opinion of the underwriter selected by the Company can be sold without adversely affecting the price, timing, distribution or marketability of such offering, and such number or dollar amount of securities shall be allocated for inclusion pro rata among the holders of all such securities (including the Registrable Instruments of the Holder) on the basis of the number of such securities of the Company owned by each such holder.

(c) The Company may select the lead underwriter and co-manager or co-managers to administer any offering of Registrable Instruments pursuant to a Piggyback Registration; provided, however, that if the Holder’s Registrable Instruments that are expected to be included in any such offering constitute, in the Company’s reasonable judgment, at least 25% of the shares of Common Stock expected to be Transferred in such offering, the Holder shall have the right to appoint one co-manager (reasonably acceptable to the Company) for such offering, who shall participate in such offering on the same terms as the co-managers appointed by the Company. In connection with any underwritten public offering pursuant to a Piggyback Registration, the Holder agrees to enter into a customary underwriting agreement with the Company and the underwriters selected pursuant to the preceding sentence, such underwriting agreement to be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company, the Holder and the underwriters (it being understood that the Holder shall not be required to make any representations and warranties other than with respect to itself, its ownership of the Registrable Instruments and its intended method of distribution thereof and shall not be required to provide an indemnity other than with respect to information it provides to the Company in writing expressly for use in such Piggyback Registration, and any such indemnity shall be limited in amount to the net proceeds of such Piggyback Registration actually received by the Holder).

(d) In the event that the Company gives the Holder notice of its intention to effect an offering pursuant to a Piggyback Registration and subsequently declines to proceed with such offering, the Holder shall have no rights in connection with such offering; provided, however, that at the request of the Holder, the Company shall proceed with such offering, subject to the other terms of this Agreement, with respect to the Registrable Instruments, which registration shall be deemed to be a Demand Registration for all purposes hereunder. The Holder shall participate in any offering of Registrable Instruments pursuant to a Piggyback Registration in accordance with the same plan of distribution for such Piggyback Registration as the Company or the holder or holders of Common Stock that proposed such Piggyback Registration, as the case may be.

(e) No registration of Registrable Instruments effected pursuant to a request under this Section 5.03 shall be deemed to have been effected pursuant to Section 5.01 and Section 5.02 or shall relieve the Company of its obligations under Section 5.01 or Section 5.02.

Section 5.04. Postponement of Registrations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 5.01 or Section 5.02, the Company may postpone the filing or effectiveness of any Demand Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement, or suspend the use of any Demand Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement, at any time if the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that such action or proposed action (i) would adversely affect or interfere with any proposal or plan by the Company or any of its Affiliates to engage in any material financing or in any material acquisition, merger, consolidation, tender offer, business combination, securities offering or other material transaction or (ii) would require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure; provided, however, that the Company will not exercise its rights of postponement pursuant to this Section 5.04 for more than 180 days (which need not be consecutive) in any consecutive 12-month period. The Company shall promptly notify the Holder of any postponement pursuant to this Section 5.04 and the Company agrees that it will terminate any such postponement as promptly as reasonably practicable and will promptly notify the Holder of such termination. In making any such determination to initiate or terminate a postponement, the Company shall not be required to consult with or obtain the consent of the Holder or any investment manager therefor (including the Trustee), and any such determination shall be in the sole discretion of the Company, and neither the Holder nor any investment manager for the Holder (including the Trustee) shall be responsible or have any liability therefor.

Section 5.05. Holdback Period. (a) The Holder agrees, in connection with any underwritten public offering in which the Holder has elected to include Registrable Instruments, or which underwritten public offering is being effected by the Company for its own account, not to effect any public sale or distribution of any Common Stock (or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock) (except as part of such underwritten public offering) during the period commencing on, and continuing for not more than 60 days (or such shorter period as the managing underwriter(s) may permit) after the effective date of the registration statement pursuant to which such underwritten offering shall be made or, in the case of a shelf registration statement, the period commencing on, and continuing for not more than 60 days (or such shorter period as the managing underwriter(s) may permit) after the Company’s notice of a distribution in connection with such offering; provided, however, that (i) any applicable period shall terminate on such earlier date as the Company gives notice to the Holder that the Company declines to proceed with any such offering and (ii) the sum of all holdback periods shall not exceed 120 days in any given 12-month period.

(b) In connection with any underwritten public offering made pursuant to a Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 5.01 or Section 5.02, the Company will not effect any public sale or distribution of any Common Stock (or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock) for its own account (other than (x) a Registration Statement (i) on Form S-4, Form S-8 or any successor forms thereto or (ii) filed solely in connection with an exchange offer or any employee benefit or dividend reinvestment plan or (y) pursuant to such underwritten offering), during the period commencing on, and continuing for not more than 60 days (or such shorter period as the managing underwriter(s) may permit) after the effective date of the registration statement pursuant to which such underwritten offering shall be made or, in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, the period commencing on, and continuing for not more than 60 days (or such shorter period as the managing underwriter(s) may permit) after the Company’s notice of a distribution in connection with such offering, or, in either case, on such earlier date as the Holder gives notice to the Company that it declines to proceed with any such offering, except (i) for the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the conversion, exercise or exchange, by the holder thereof, of options, warrants or other securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for the Common Stock pursuant to the terms of such options, warrants or other securities, (ii) pursuant to the terms of any other agreement to issue shares of Common Stock (or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for the Common Stock) in effect on the date of the notice of a proposed Transfer, including any such agreement in connection with any previously disclosed acquisition, merger, consolidation or other business combination and (iii) in connection with Transfers to dividend reinvestment plans or to employee benefit plans in order to enable any such employee benefit plan to fulfill its funding obligations in the ordinary course, unless the managing underwriter(s) agree otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 5.05 shall be subject to the provisions of Section 5.04, and if the Company exercises its rights of postponement pursuant to Section 5.04 with respect to any proposed underwritten public offering, the provisions of this Section 5.05 shall not apply unless and until such time as the Company notifies the Holder of the termination of such postponement and the Holder notifies the Company of its intention to continue with such proposed offering.

Section 5.06. No Inconsistent Agreements. Nothing herein shall restrict the authority of the Company to grant to any Person the rights to obtain registration under the Securities Act of any equity securities of the Company, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities; provided, however, that the Company shall not grant any such rights with respect to the Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock that conflicts with the rights of the Holder under this Agreement. The Company shall cause each holder of Common Stock who obtains the right, after the date of the Registration Rights Agreement, to propose a registration giving rise to a Piggyback Registration, if any, to agree not to Transfer any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for the Common Stock, for the applicable period set forth in Section 5.05(a).

Section 5.07. Registration Procedures. (a) If and whenever the Company is required to effect the registration of any Registrable Instruments under the Securities Act as provided in this Article 5, the Company shall effect such registration to permit the sale of such Registrable Instruments in accordance with the intended method or methods of disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto the Company shall cooperate in the sale of the securities and shall, as expeditiously as possible:

(i) Prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement or Registration Statements on such form which shall be available for the sale of the Registrable Instruments by the Holder or the Company in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution thereof, and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and to remain effective as provided herein; provided, however, that before filing a Registration Statement or Prospectus (including any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus related thereto) or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Company shall furnish or otherwise make available to the Holder, its counsel and the managing underwriter(s), if any, copies of all such documents proposed to be filed, which documents will be subject to the reasonable review and comment of such counsel (provided that any comments made on behalf of the Holder and the managing underwriter(s), if any, are provided to the Company promptly upon receipt of the documents but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such documents by the Holder), and such other documents reasonably requested by such counsel, including any comment letter from the SEC, and, if requested by such counsel, provide such counsel reasonable opportunity to participate in the preparation of such Registration Statement and each Prospectus included therein (including any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus related thereto) and such other opportunities to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of the Securities Act, including reasonable access to the Company’s books and records, officers, accountants and other advisors. The Company shall not file any such Registration Statement or Prospectus (including any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus related thereto) or any amendments or supplements thereto with respect to any registration pursuant to Section 5.01 or Section 5.02 to which the Holder’s Representative, its counsel, or the managing underwriter(s), if any, shall reasonably object, in writing, on a timely basis, unless, in the opinion of the Company, such filing is necessary to comply with applicable Law.

(ii) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and post-effective amendments to each Registration Statement as may be reasonably requested by the Holder or necessary to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective during the period provided herein and comply in all material respects with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement, and cause the related Prospectus to be supplemented by any Prospectus supplement or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of the securities covered by such Registration Statement, and as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 or Rule 433, as applicable (or any similar provisions then in force) under the Securities Act.

(iii) Notify the Holder and the managing underwriter(s), if any, promptly (A) when a Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement, Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or post-effective amendment has been filed, and, with respect to a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective, (B) of any request by the SEC or any other Governmental Entity for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or related Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or for additional information, (C) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose, (D) if at any time the representations and warranties of the Company contained in any agreement (including any underwriting agreement contemplated by Section 5.07(a)(xvi) below) cease to be true and correct, (E) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Instruments for sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose, and (F) of the happening of any event that makes any statement made in such Registration Statement or related Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus untrue in any material respect or that requires the making of any changes in such Registration Statement, Prospectus, documents or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus so that, in the case of the Registration Statement, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and that in the case of any Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(iv) Use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement, or the lifting of any suspension of the qualification (or exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable Instruments for sale in any jurisdiction at the reasonably earliest practical date.

(v) If requested by the managing underwriter(s), if any, or the Holder, promptly include in a Prospectus supplement, post-effective amendment or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus such information as the managing underwriter(s), if any, or the Holder may reasonably request in order to permit the intended method of distribution of such securities and make all required filings of such Prospectus supplement, such post-effective amendment or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus as soon as practicable after the Company has received such request.

(vi) Furnish or make available to the Holder, and each managing underwriter, if any, without charge, such number of conformed copies of the Registration Statement and each post-effective amendment thereto, including financial statements (but excluding schedules, all documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, and all exhibits, unless requested in writing by the Holder, counsel or managing underwriter(s)), and such other documents, as the Holder or such managing underwriter(s) may reasonably request, and upon request a copy of any and all transmittal letters or other correspondence to or received from the SEC or any other Governmental Entity relating to such offering.

(vii) Deliver to the Holder, and the managing underwriter(s), if any, without charge, as many copies of the Prospectus or Prospectuses (including each form of Prospectus and any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus related to any such Prospectuses) and each amendment or supplement thereto as such Persons may reasonably request in connection with the distribution of the Registrable Instruments; and the Company, subject to Section 5.07(b), hereby consents to the use of such Prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto by each of the Holder and the managing underwriter(s), if any, in connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Instruments covered by such Prospectus and any such amendment or supplement thereto.

(viii) Prior to any public offering of Registrable Instruments, use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the Holder, the managing underwriter(s), if any, and their respective counsel in connection with the registration or qualification (or exemption from such registration or qualification) of such Registrable Instruments for offer and sale under the securities or “Blue Sky” laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as any seller or managing underwriter(s) reasonably requests in writing and to keep each such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the period such Registration Statement is required to be kept effective and to take any other action that may be necessary or advisable to enable the Holder to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Instruments in such jurisdiction; provided, however, that the Company will not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or (ii) take any action that would subject it to general service of process in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject.

(ix) Cooperate with the Holder and the managing underwriter(s), if any, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any legends) representing Registrable Instruments to be sold after receiving a written representation from the Holder that the Registrable Instruments represented by the certificates so delivered by the Holder will be transferred in accordance with the Registration Statement, and enable such Registrable Instruments to be in such denominations and registered in such names as the managing underwriter(s), if any, or the Holder may request at least two (2) Business Days prior to any sale of Registrable Instruments.

(x) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 5.07(a)(iii)(B) through Section 5.07(a)(iii)(F), at the request of the Holder, prepare and file with the SEC a supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement, Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Instruments, such Prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they are made, not misleading.

(xi) Prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement relating to the Registrable Instruments, provide a CUSIP number for the Registrable Instruments.

(xii) So long as the Common Stock is listed on any United States securities exchange or a quotation system, use its best efforts to cause all of the Underlying Shares to be listed on such exchange or quotation system.

(xiii) Provide and cause to be maintained a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Instruments covered by such Registration Statement from and after a date not later than the effective date of such Registration Statement.

(xiv) Enter into such agreements (including an underwriting agreement in form, scope and substance as is customary in underwritten offerings) and take all such other actions reasonably requested by the Holder or by the managing underwriter(s), if any, to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Instruments, and in connection therewith, whether or not an underwriting agreement is entered into and whether or not the registration is an underwritten registration, (i) make such representations and warranties to the Holder and the managing underwriter(s), if any, with respect to the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and the Registration Statement, Prospectus and documents, if any, incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein, in each case, in form, substance and scope as are customarily made by the Company in its underwritten offerings, and, if true, confirm the same if and when requested, (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to furnish to the Holder opinions of counsel to the Company and updates thereof (which counsel and opinions (in form, scope and substance) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the managing underwriter(s), if any, and counsel to the Holder), addressed to the Holder and each of the managing underwriter(s), if any, covering the matters customarily covered in opinions provided by the Company in its underwritten offerings and such other matters as may be reasonably requested by such counsel and managing underwriter(s), (iii) use its reasonable best efforts to obtain “cold comfort” letters and updates thereof from the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company (and, if necessary, any other independent registered public accounting firm of any Subsidiary of the Company or of any business acquired by the Company for which financial statements and financial data are, or are required to be, included in the Registration Statement) who have certified the financial statements included in such Registration Statement, addressed to the Holder (unless such accountants shall be prohibited from so addressing such letters by applicable standards of the accounting profession) and each of the managing underwriter(s), if any, such letters to be in customary form and covering matters of the type customarily covered in “cold comfort” letters in connection with the Company's underwritten offerings, (iv) if an underwriting agreement is entered into, the same shall contain indemnification provisions and procedures substantially to the effect set forth in Article 6 hereof with respect to all parties to be indemnified pursuant to said Article except as otherwise agreed by the Holder and the managing underwriter(s) and (v) deliver such documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested by the Holder, its counsel and the managing underwriter(s), if any, to evidence the continued validity of the representations and warranties made pursuant to clause (i) above and to evidence compliance with any customary conditions contained in the underwriting agreement or other agreement entered into by the Company. The above shall be done at each closing under such underwriting or similar agreement, or as and to the extent required thereunder.

(xv) Upon execution of a customary confidentiality agreement, make available for inspection by a Representative of the Holder, the managing underwriter(s), if any, and any attorneys, accountants or other agents or Representatives retained by the Holder or managing underwriter(s), at the offices where normally kept, during reasonable business hours, financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and cause the officers, directors and employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries to supply all information in each case reasonably requested by any such Representative, managing underwriter(s), attorney, accountant or Representatives in connection with such Registration Statement.

(xvi) Otherwise use its reasonable best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and any applicable national securities exchange, and make available to the Holder, as soon as reasonably practicable (but not more than 18 months) after the effective date of the Registration Statement, an earnings statement which shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act.

(b) Each of the parties will treat all notices of proposed Transfers and registrations, and all information relating to any blackout periods under Section 5.04 received from the other party with the strictest confidence (and in accordance with the terms of any applicable confidentiality agreement among the Company and the Holder) and will not disseminate such information. Nothing herein shall be construed to require the Company or any of its Affiliates to make any public disclosure of information at any time. In the event the Company has notified the Holder of any occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 5.07(a)(iii)(B) through Section 5.07(a)(iii)(F) then the Holder shall not deliver such Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus to any purchaser and will forthwith discontinue disposition of any Registrable Instruments covered by such Registration Statement, Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus unless and until a supplement or post-effective amendment to such Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus has been prepared and filed as set forth in Section 5.07(a)(x) or until the Company advises the Holder in writing that the use of such Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus may be resumed.

(c) The Holder shall cooperate with the Company in the preparation and filing of any Registration Statement under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement and provide the Company with all information reasonably necessary to complete such preparation as the Company may, from time to time, reasonably request in writing and the Company may exclude from such registration the Registrable Instruments of the Holder if the Holder unreasonably fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time after receiving such request.

Section 5.08. Participation in Public Offering Transfers. (a) In the case of an underwritten offering made pursuant to a Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 5.01 or Section 5.02, the price, underwriting discount and other financial terms for each class of Registrable Instruments of the related underwriting agreement shall be determined by the Holder. In the case of any underwritten offering registered pursuant to the registration giving rise to the Holder’s rights under Section 5.03, such price, underwriting discount and other financial terms shall be determined by the Company, subject to the right of the Holder to withdraw its request to participate in the registration pursuant to Section 5.03(a).

(b) The Holder may not participate in any underwritten Transfers hereunder unless it (i) agrees to sell its securities on the basis provided in any customary underwriting arrangements approved by the Person or Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements, custodian agreements and other documents customarily required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements, it being understood that the Holder shall not be required to make any representations and warranties other than with respect to itself, its ownership of the Registrable Instruments and its intended method of distribution thereof and shall not be required to provide an indemnity other than with respect to information it provides to the Company in writing expressly for use in such underwritten Transfer, and any such indemnity shall be limited in amount to the net proceeds of such underwritten Transfer actually received by the Holder.

Section 5.09. Cooperation by Management. The Company shall make available members of the management of the Company and its Affiliates for reasonable assistance in the selling efforts relating to any offering of the Registrable Instruments, to the extent customary for such offering (including, without limitation, to the extent customary, senior management attendance at due diligence meetings with prospective investors or underwriters and their counsel and road shows), and for such assistance as is reasonably requested by the Holder and its counsel in the selling efforts relating to any such offering; provided, however, that management need only be made available for (i) one offering in any 12-month period and (ii) an offering that contemplates a sale of at least 20 million Underlying Shares (inclusive of Underlying Shares underlying any Warrants included in such offering).

Section 5.10. Registration Expenses and Legal Counsel. The Company shall pay all reasonable fees and expenses incident to the performance of or compliance with its obligations under this Article 5, including (i) all registration and filing fees (including fees and expenses (A) with respect to filings required to be made with all applicable securities exchanges and/or the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. and (B) of compliance with securities or Blue Sky laws including any fees and disbursements of counsel for the underwriter(s) in connection with Blue Sky qualifications of the Registrable Instruments pursuant to Section 5.07(a)(viii)), (ii) printing expenses (including expenses of printing certificates for Registrable Instruments in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company and of printing Prospectuses if the printing of Prospectuses is requested by the managing underwriter(s), if any, or by the Holder), (iii) messenger, telephone and delivery expenses of the Company, (iv) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, (v) expenses of the Company incurred in connection with any “road show”, (vi) fees and disbursements of all independent registered public accounting firms (including, without limitation, the expenses of any special audit and “cold comfort” letters required by or incident to this Agreement) and any other persons, including special experts, retained by the Company and (vii) fees up to $250,000 and reasonable disbursements of one legal counsel for the Holder in connection with each registration of Registrable Instruments or sale of Registrable Instruments under the Shelf Registration Statement, provided that a registration or sale either is effected or is postponed pursuant to Section 5.04. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall not be required to pay underwriting discounts and commissions and transfer taxes, if any, relating to the sale or disposition of Registrable Instruments pursuant to any Registration Statement, or any other expenses of the Holder. In addition, the Company shall bear all of its internal expenses (including all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expense of any annual audit, the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the securities to be registered on any securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed and rating agency fees and the fees and expenses of any Person, including special experts, retained by the Company.

Section 5.11. Rules 144 and 144A and Regulation S. The Company covenants that it will file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC thereunder (or, if the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the reasonable request of the Holder, make publicly available such necessary information for so long as necessary to permit sales pursuant to Rules 144, 144A or Regulation S under the Securities Act), and it will take any such further action as the Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable the Holder to sell Registrable Instruments without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by (i) Rules 144, 144A or Regulation S under the Securities Act, as such Rules may be amended from time to time, or (ii) any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the SEC.

ARTICLE 6

Indemnification

Section 6.01. Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Holder, the trustee of the Holder, the investment manager or managers acting on behalf of the Holder with respect to the Registrable Instruments, Persons, if any, who Control any of them, and each of their respective Representatives (each an “Indemnitee”), from and against any and all losses, penalties, judgments, suits, costs, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, joint or several (including reasonable costs of investigation and legal expenses) (“Losses”) arising out of or caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement described herein or any related Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus relating to the Registrable Instruments (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto), or arising out of or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein in the case of the Prospectus, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, except insofar as such Losses arise out of or are caused by any such untrue statement or omission included or omitted in conformity with information furnished to the Company in writing by such Indemnitee or any Person acting on behalf of such Indemnitee expressly for use therein; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity agreement shall not inure to the benefit of such Indemnitee if the Company shall have complied with its obligation to furnish copies of the Prospectus and any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus in accordance with Section 5.07(a)(vii) and such Indemnitee, or any underwriter, broker or dealer selected by it, shall have failed to comply with its obligations under Section 5.07(b) to discontinue use of a Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus in accordance therewith. This indemnity shall be in addition to any liability the Company may otherwise have under this Agreement or otherwise. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Holder or any indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of Registrable Instruments by the Holder.

Section 6.02. Indemnification by the Holder. The Holder agrees, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, and each underwriter selected shall agree, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Company, its directors, officers, employees and agents, and each Person, if any, who Controls the Company, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company, but only with respect to Losses arising out of or caused by an untrue statement or omission included or omitted in conformity with information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Holder or such underwriter, as the case may be, expressly for use in any Registration Statement described herein or any related Prospectus relating to the Registrable Instruments (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) or arising out of or caused by the failure of the Holder, or each underwriter, broker or dealer selected by the Holder, to comply with its obligations under Section 5.07(b) to discontinue use of a Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus in accordance therewith. No claim against the assets of the Holder shall be created by this Section 6.02, except as and to the extent permitted by applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holder shall not be liable to the Company or any such Person for any amount in excess of the net amount received by the Holder from the sale of Registrable Instruments in the offering giving rise to such liability.

Section 6.03. Indemnification Procedures. (a) In case any claim is asserted or any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted where indemnity may be sought by an Indemnitee pursuant to any of the preceding paragraphs of this Article 6, such Indemnitee shall promptly notify in writing the Person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “Indemnitor”); provided, however, that the omission so to notify the Indemnitor shall not relieve the Indemnitor of any liability which it may have to such Indemnitee except to the extent that the Indemnitor was prejudiced by such failure to notify. The Indemnitor, upon request of the Indemnitee, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee to represent (subject to the following sentences of this Section 6.03(a)) the Indemnitee and any others the Indemnitor may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any Indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnitee unless (i) the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel, (ii) the Indemnitor fails to take reasonable steps necessary to defend diligently any claim within ten calendar days after receiving written notice from the Indemnitee that the Indemnitee believes the Indemnitor has failed to take such steps, or (iii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests or legal defenses between them and, in all such cases, the Indemnitor shall only be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. It is understood that the Indemnitor shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate law firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all such Indemnitees not having actual or potential differing interests or legal defenses among them, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. In the case of any such firm for the New VEBA or any Control Person of the New VEBA, such firm shall be designated in writing by the named fiduciary (as determined in accordance with Section 402(a) of ERISA). The Indemnitor shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding affected without its written consent.

(b) If the indemnification provided for in this Article 6 is unavailable to an Indemnitee in respect of any Losses referred to herein, then the Indemnitor, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnitee hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnitee as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee and Persons acting on behalf of or Controlling the Indemnitor or the Indemnitee in connection with the statements or omissions or violations which resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. If the indemnification described in Section 6.01 or Section 6.02 is unavailable to an Indemnitee, the relative fault of the Company, the Holder and Persons acting on behalf of or Controlling the Company or the Holder shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, the Holder or by Persons acting on behalf of the Company or the Holder and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Indemnitor shall not be required to contribute pursuant to this Section 6.03(b) if there has been a settlement of any proceeding affected without its written consent. No claim against the assets of the Holder shall be created by this Section 6.03(b), except as and to the extent permitted by applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holder shall not be required to make a contribution in excess of the net amount received by the Holder from the sale of Registrable Instruments in the offering giving rise to such liability.

Section 6.04. Survival. The indemnification contained in this Article 6 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of any termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 7

(a) Each New Note initially delivered under this Agreement will be in the form of a fully registered note substantially in the form of Exhibit A or Exhibit B attached hereto, as applicable.

New Note B shall be issuable only in fully registered form in the principal amount of $6,511,850,000.

(b) The Issuer shall cause to be kept at its principal office a register (the “Note Register”) for the registration and transfer of New Notes or portions thereof. The name and address of the holder or holders of the New Notes or portions thereof, the transfer of New Notes and the names and addresses of the transferees of New Notes or portions thereof shall be registered in the Note Register. The Issuer may deem and treat the persons in whose name the New Notes or portions thereof are so registered as the holders and owners thereof for all purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary, until due presentment of such New Notes or portion thereof for registration of transfer as provided in this Section 8.3.

(c) Upon compliance with Section 5.2 hereof and surrender for registration of transfer of the New Notes or portion thereof, or upon surrender for registration of exchange of any New Notes or portion thereof without transfer, in each case, at the office of the Issuer designated for notices in Section 8.1 hereof, the Issuer shall execute and deliver, at its expense, a new New Note or New Notes of the same aggregate unpaid principal amount as such surrendered New Note or portion thereof (but in no case in an initial principal amount of less than $250,000,000 or in a principal amount in excess thereof that is not an initial integral multiple of $100,000,000, unless the principal amount of such New Note being exchanged is a lesser amount), dated the date of issue of such New Note, and registered in the name of such Person or Persons as shall be designated in writing by the holder of such surrendered New Note. Every New Note surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer or exchange duly authorized in writing. The Issuer may additionally condition its issuance of any new New Note or New Notes on the payment to it of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp tax or other governmental charge imposed in respect of such transfer or exchange, except with respect to the transfer of such New Note to the New VEBA.

(d) In case any New Note shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Issuer upon request shall execute and deliver a new New Note in exchange and substitution for the mutilated New Note, or in lieu of and substitution for the New Note so destroyed, lost or stolen. In every case of destruction, loss or theft, the applicant for a substituted New Note shall furnish to the Issuer such security or indemnity as may be required by it to save it harmless from all risk, however remote (it being understood that, if the holder of such destroyed, lost or stolen New Note is the Purchaser, the indemnity agreement of the Purchaser shall be satisfactory to the Issuer for such purpose), and the applicant shall also furnish to the Issuer evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of such New Note and of the ownership thereof. Upon the issuance of any substituted New Note, the Issuer may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other government charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses connected therewith. In case any New Note has matured or is about to mature and shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Issuer may, instead of issuing a substituted New Note, pay the same (without surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated New Note) if the applicant for such payment shall furnish the Issuer with such security or indemnity as it may require to save it harmless from all risk, however remote, and, in case of destruction, loss or theft, evidence to the satisfaction of the Issuer of the destruction, loss or theft of such New Note and of the ownership thereof. Every substituted New Note issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8.4(d) by virtue of the fact that any New Note is destroyed, lost or stolen shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen New Note shall be found at any time.

OPINION OF COUNSEL

1. Each of the Issuer (with respect to the New Notes and Warrants) and Subsidiary Guarantors (with respect to the Guaranties) (collectively, the “Credit Parties”) (a) has been duly incorporated or formed, as the case may be, and is validly existing and in good standing as a corporation or limited liability company in the jurisdiction set forth opposite its name on Schedule I to the Agreement, (b) has the corporate or limited liability company power and authority, as the case may be, to execute and deliver the Agreement, the New Notes, the Warrants and the Guaranties, as applicable (the “Credit Documents”), to which it is a party and to borrow and perform its obligations thereunder, and to grant the security interests to be granted by it pursuant to the Credit Agreement and Loan Documents (as defined therein and collectively referred to herein as the “Security Documents”), and (c) has duly authorized, executed and delivered each Credit Document to which it is a party.

2. The execution and delivery by any Credit Party of the Credit Documents to which it is a party, its exchange in accordance with the terms of the Credit Documents, and performance of its obligations thereunder and granting of the security interests to be granted by it pursuant to the Security Documents (a) will not result in any violation of (1) the Certificate of Incorporation, Articles of Incorporation, By-Laws, certificate of formation or limited liability company operating agreement, as applicable, of such Credit Party, (2) any Federal, Michigan or New York statute or the Delaware General Corporation Law or the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act or any rule or regulation issued pursuant to any Federal, Michigan or New York statute or the Delaware General Corporation Law or the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act or any order known to me issued by any court or governmental agency or body and (b) will not breach or result in a default under (in each case material to the Issuer and its subsidiaries considered as a whole) or, except as described in Section 2.2 of the Agreement, result in the creation of any lien upon or security interest (in each case material to the Issuer and its subsidiaries considered as a whole) in the Credit Parties’ properties pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, guarantee, lease financing agreement or other similar agreement or instrument known to me under which any Credit Party is a debtor or guarantor.

3. No consent, approval, authorization, order, filing, registration or qualification of or with any Federal, Michigan or New York governmental agency or body or any Delaware governmental agency or body acting pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law or the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act is required for the execution and delivery by any Credit Party of the Credit Documents to which it is a party, the exchange by any Credit Party in accordance with the terms of the Credit Documents or the performance by the Credit Parties of their respective obligations under the Credit Documents or the granting of any security interests under the Security Documents, except filings and recordings required for the perfection of security interests granted pursuant to the Security Documents.

4. I do not know of any legal or governmental proceeding pending to which any Credit Party is a party, or to which any property of any Credit Party is subject, and no such proceedings are known by me to be threatened or contemplated by governmental authorities or threatened by others, that in either case questions the validity of the Credit Documents.

Unpaid Principal Payments hereunder may be prepaid on any Payment Date, in whole or in part, prior to the Payment Date corresponding to such Principal Payment without premium or penalty as set forth in Section 2(b) of this Note.

All payments in respect of this Note shall be paid in such coin or currency of the United States as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, and shall be payable in Federal funds or other immediately available funds.

This Note is the New Note A referred to in the Securities Exchange Agreement dated as of [_______ __], 2009 among the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors listed in Schedule I thereto and Ford-UAW Holdings LLC (the “Exchange Agreement”). Terms defined in the Exchange Agreement are used herein as therein defined. This Note can be transferred as provided in the Exchange Agreement and subject to the limitations set forth therein. The registered holder of this Note is entitled to the benefits of the Exchange Agreement and may enforce the agreements, covenants and representations of the Issuer contained therein and exercise the remedies provided thereby or otherwise available in respect thereof.

Subject to the limitations set forth in the Exchange Agreement, Principal Payments on this Note and interest on any overdue Principal Payments are guaranteed by the Subsidiary Guarantors named in the Exchange Agreement pursuant to the Guaranty endorsed on the reverse hereof.

(d) Neither the Issuer nor any Subsidiary Guarantor shall assign, convey or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under the Exchange Agreement, under this Note or under the Guaranty, as the case may be, without the express written consent of holders of a majority of the outstanding aggregate Remaining Principal Amount of this Note.

(e) (i) Each of the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors may consolidate with, or sell or convey all or substantially all its assets to, or merge with or into, (1) any entity if the Issuer or such Subsidiary Guarantor or another Subsidiary Guarantor shall be the continuing entity or (2) any entity existing under the laws of (x) the United States, any state thereof, or the District of Columbia, in the case of the Issuer, and (y) any jurisdiction, in the case of a Significant Guarantor (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) in connection with an asset sale permitted under Section 7.5 of the Existing Credit Agreement; provided, however, that in the case of clause (1) there shall be no default or event of default continuing after giving effect to such transaction; and provided, further, that in the case of clause (2) that is not in connection with an asset sale that is permitted under Section 7.5 of the Existing Credit Agreement, (x) the successor entity shall expressly assume the due and punctual payment of Principal Payments on this Note and interest on any overdue Principal Payments, in the case of the Issuer, in accordance with its terms and the due and punctual performance and observance of all the covenants and conditions of the Exchange Agreement and this Note, in the case of the Issuer, or the Exchange Agreement and the Guaranty, in the case of a Subsidiary Guarantor, by an instrument satisfactory to the Initial Holder in its reasonable judgment, executed and delivered to the holders of this Note by such entity, and (y) such successor entity shall not, immediately after such merger or consolidation or such sale or conveyance, be in default in the performance of any such covenant or condition.

(ii) Upon any consolidation by the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor with or merger by the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor into any other person or any conveyance, transfer or lease of the properties and assets of the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor substantially as an entirety in accordance with clause (i) above, (x) the successor Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Issuer or Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, is merged or to which such conveyance, transfer or lease is made, shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Issuer hereunder and under this Note, or of such Subsidiary Guarantor under the Guaranty, as the case may be, with the same effect as if such successor had been named as the Issuer or such Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, and (y) thereafter, the predecessor entity shall be relieved of all obligations and covenants hereunder and under this Note.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in this Note, if a Subsidiary Guarantor is released from its guaranty under the Credit Agreement, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall automatically be released from the Guaranty (without requirement of notice to or consent of any holder of the Note). If requested by the Issuer, the holders of the Note agree to take promptly any action reasonably requested by the Issuer to evidence the release of such Subsidiary Guarantor from its Guaranty.

(f) Other than Permitted Liens, the Issuer shall not at any time have outstanding more than $20,485,000,000 principal amount of indebtedness for borrowed money secured on a first lien basis with its assets nor more than $14,400,000,000 principal amount of indebtedness for borrowed money secured on a second or junior lien basis with its assets; provided, however, that (i) any such indebtedness for borrowed money secured on a second or junior lien basis in excess of $4 billion (including the New Notes) (“Junior Lien Debt”) shall consist only of loans from or obligations to the U.S. Department of Energy or other federal governmental authorities (or a commercial bank and guaranteed by the U.S. Department of Energy or other federal governmental authority), (ii) any Junior Lien Debt shall be secured by a lien on Collateral pledged under the Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents, including the Collateral Trust Agreement and the Security Agreement that, although constituting Permitted Second Lien Debt thereunder, will, as between the Initial Holder or any subsequent holder of the New Notes and the lenders of such Junior Lien Debt, be junior to the second lien securing the Note, and the priority of which will be governed by an intercreditor agreement among the parties hereto and the lenders of such Junior Lien Debt substantially similar to the intercreditor provisions of Section 8 of the Collateral Trust Agreement (as if the second lien securing the Note were a first priority secured obligation and the Junior Lien Debt were a second priority secured obligation), and (iii) this Note shall be amended to reflect the benefit of any terms contained in existing and future Junior Lien Debt if such terms, taken as whole, are more favorable to the lenders thereof than those contained herein for the benefit of the Initial Holder or any subsequent holder of the Note (other than in respect of interest rates, fees, call protection or the absence of a call feature, premiums or maturity dates); provided, however, that to the extent the future Junior Lien Debt provides for specified project financing, this clause (iii) shall not apply to any terms that relate to such project or its eligibility for financing; provided further that any such amendments shall have effect only for so long as is necessary to comply with this clause (iii). For avoidance of doubt, such amendments shall no longer have effect after any such Junior Lien Debt is no longer outstanding or its terms, taken as whole, are no longer more favorable from a lender’s perspective than the terms of the Note without such amendments.

(g) (i) In the event the conditions in Section 10.15(c) of the Existing Credit Agreement shall be met for the automatic release of the Collateral pledged under the Existing Credit Agreement and/or Loan Documents (as defined therein), then such Collateral shall also be concurrently released with respect to this Note and the Guaranty shall be concurrently terminated.

(ii) In the event the Existing Credit Agreement and/or Loan Documents (as defined therein) are amended or terminated such that the Covered Debt thereunder is no longer secured by any Collateral pledged thereunder for reasons other than the conditions in Section 10.15(c) of the Existing Credit Agreement having been met, and as a result this Note is no longer secured on a second lien basis by any Collateral pledged thereunder, then the Issuer shall promptly provide for replacement security of this Note in a manner consistent with that provided prior to such amendment or termination, which replacement security shall be reasonably acceptable to the Initial Holder. For avoidance of doubt, such replacement security shall be deemed reasonably acceptable if it constitutes a second lien on collateral pledged under a new secured credit agreement entered into by Issuer.

(h) From time to time, while this Note is outstanding, upon the reasonable request of the Initial Holder, officials of the Issuer will confer with officials of such Initial Holder and advise them as to matters bearing on the Issuer’s and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ financial condition.

(i) The Issuer will not itself, and will not permit any Manufacturing Subsidiary (as such term is defined in the Indenture) to, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or suffer to exist any notes, bonds, debentures or other similar evidences of indebtedness for money borrowed (notes, bonds, debentures or other similar evidences of indebtedness for money borrowed being hereinafter in this clause (i) called “Debt”), secured by a pledge of, or mortgage or lien on, any Principal Domestic Manufacturing Property (as such term is defined in the Indenture) of the Issuer or any Manufacturing Subsidiary, or any shares of stock of or Debt of any Manufacturing Subsidiary (mortgages, pledges and liens being hereinafter in this clause (i) called “Mortgage” or “Mortgages”), without effectively providing that this Note (together with, if the Issuer shall so determine, any other Debt of the Issuer or such Manufacturing Subsidiary then existing or thereafter created ranking equally with this Note) shall be secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) such secured Debt, so long as such secured Debt shall be so secured, unless, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of all such secured Debt so secured plus all Attributable Debt (as such term is defined in the Indenture) of the Issuer and its Manufacturing Subsidiaries in respect of sale and leaseback transactions (as defined in Section 10.05 of the Indenture) would not exceed 5% of Consolidated Net Tangible Automotive Assets (as such term is defined in the Indenture); provided, however, that this Section 3(i) shall not apply to Debt secured by:

(i) Mortgages on property of, or on any shares of stock or of Debt of, any corporation existing at the time such corporation becomes a Manufacturing Subsidiary;

(ii) Mortgages in favor of the Issuer or any Manufacturing Subsidiary;

(iii) Mortgages in favor of any governmental body to secure progress, advance or other payments pursuant to any contract or provision of any statute;

(v) any extension, renewal or replacement (or successive extensions renewals or replacements), as a whole or in part, of any Mortgage referred to in the foregoing clauses (i) to (iv), inclusive; provided that such extension, renewal or replacement Mortgage shall be limited to all or a part of the same property, shares of stock or Debt that secured the Mortgage extended, renewed or replaced (plus improvements on such property).

(j) The Issuer will not itself, and it will not permit any Manufacturing Subsidiary (as such term is defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) to, enter into any arrangement with any bank, insurance company or other lender or investor (not including the Issuer or any Manufacturing Subsidiary) or to which any such lender or investor is a party, providing for the leasing by the Issuer or a Manufacturing Subsidiary for a period, including renewals, in excess of three years of any Principal Domestic Manufacturing Property (as such term is defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) which has been or is to be sold or transferred by the Issuer or such Manufacturing Subsidiary to such lender or investor or to any person to whom funds have been or are to be advanced by such lender or investor on the security of such Principal Domestic Manufacturing Property (herein referred to as a “Sale and Leaseback Transaction”) unless either:

(i) the Issuer or such Manufacturing Subsidiary could create Debt secured by a Mortgage pursuant to Section 7.8 of the Existing Credit Agreement on the Principal Domestic Manufacturing Property to be leased in an amount equal to the Attributable Debt (as such term is defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) with respect to such Sale and Leaseback Transaction without equally and ratably securing the Obligations; or

(ii) the Issuer, within 120 days after the sale or transfer shall have been made by the Issuer or by a Manufacturing Subsidiary, applies an amount equal to the greater of:

(x) the net proceeds of the sale of the Principal Domestic Manufacturing Property leased pursuant to such arrangement; and

(y) the fair market value of the Principal Domestic Manufacturing Property so leased at the time of entering into such arrangement (as determined by any two of the following: the Chairman of the Board of the Issuer, its President, any Executive Vice President of the Issuer, any Group Vice President of the Issuer, any Vice President of the Issuer, its Treasurer or its Controller);

to the retirement of Funded Debt (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) of the Issuer; provided, however, that the amount to be applied to the retirement of Funded Debt of the Issuer shall be reduced by the principal amount of Funded Debt voluntarily retired by the Issuer within 120 days after such sale.

(k) The Issuer shall continue to engage primarily in the automotive business and preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence and take all reasonable actions to maintain all rights necessary for the normal conduct of its business, except to the extent that failure to do so would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

(l) The Issuer shall, and shall cause each Significant Guarantor to, maintain, as appropriate, with insurance companies that the Issuer believes (in the good faith judgment of the management of the Issuer) are financially sound and responsible at the time the relevant coverage is placed or renewed, insurance in amounts (after giving effect to any self-insurance which the Issuer believes (in the good faith judgment of management of the Issuer) is reasonable and prudent in light of the size and nature of its business) and against at least such risks (and with such risk retentions) as the Issuer believes (in the good faith judgment of the management of the Issuer) are reasonable in light of the size and nature of its business.

(iii) The Issuer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (x) grant a security interest in the Capital Stock of any newly-formed or after-acquired joint venture (or a holding company parent thereof) owned directly by the Issuer or a Subsidiary Guarantor if the amount recorded by the Issuer or such Subsidiary Guarantor as its investment in such joint venture exceeds $250,000,000 and (y) in the case of any domestic joint venture in which the Issuer directly or indirectly owns at least 80% of the voting or economic interest, to cause such joint venture to become a Subsidiary Guarantor (in each case, it being understood that such efforts shall not require any economic or other significant concession with respect the terms of such joint venture arrangements).

(iv) Within 60 days of the occurrence thereof, the Issuer will notify the Collateral Trustee, the Administrative Agent and the Initial Holder of any changes to the name, jurisdiction of incorporation or legal form of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor.

SECTION 4. Events Of Default. Each of the following is an event of default:

(each a “Non-Recourse Party”) under this Guaranty shall be limited to any property (the “Non-Recourse Collateral”) in which such Non-Recourse Party has granted a Lien to the Collateral Trustee pursuant to the Collateral Trust Agreement and Security Agreement and Loan Documents referred to in the Note and that the rights of any holder of the Note to recover against any such Non-Recourse Party shall be limited solely to such Non-Recourse Party’s Non-Recourse Collateral.

Upon failure by the Issuer to pay punctually any Issuer Obligation, each Subsidiary Guarantor that is not a Non-Recourse Party will forthwith pay, on the day such sum is due, without notice of demand, the full amount not paid by the Issuer or any other Subsidiary Guarantor at the place and in the manner specified in the Exchange Agreement; provided that the aggregate amount of payments by the Subsidiary Guarantors on or prior to such day shall not exceed the New Note Lien Amount (as defined in the Exchange Agreement) of the Note on such day.

Except as provided in Section 3(g) of the Note, the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder will be unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, will not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by (i) any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect of any Issuer Obligation, (ii) any modification or amendment of or supplement to the Exchange Agreement or the Note, (iii) any change in the corporate or other existence, structure or ownership of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceedings affecting the Issuer, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any of its or their assets, (iv) the invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor for any reason of the Exchange Agreement or the Note, (v) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which any Subsidiary Guarantor may have at any time against the Issuer, any holder of the Note or any other person, or (vi) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Issuer, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any holder of the Note or any other circumstance whatsoever which might, but for the provisions of this paragraph, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Issuer’s obligations under the Exchange Agreement or the Note or any Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations hereunder.

Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand for payment and protest of any kind whatsoever, as well as any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer.

Except as provided in Section 3(g)(i) of the Note, each Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations hereunder will remain in full force and effect until all such obligations have been satisfied. If at any time payment or any part thereof of any amount guaranteed hereby is rescinded or must otherwise be restored upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer, each Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations hereunder with respect to such payment will be reinstated as though such payment had been due but not made at such time.

Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that, without notice to it and without the necessity for any additional enforcement, consent or guaranty by it, the liability of the Issuer hereby guaranteed may, from time to time, be renewed, extended, modified (with respect to time for payment or the terms of indebtedness or otherwise), compromised, released or discharged by the holders of the Note without terminating, affecting or impairing the validity of this Guaranty or the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder.

Upon a Subsidiary Guarantor making any payment with respect to any Issuer Obligation, such Subsidiary Guarantor will be subrogated to the rights of the payee against the Issuer with respect to such payment; provided that such Subsidiary Guarantor will not enforce any payment by way of subrogation until all the Issuer’s obligations hereunder have been satisfied in full.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each Subsidiary Guarantor has caused this Guaranty to be executed as of the [__]th day of [______], 2009.

Except as provided in Section 2(e) of this Note with respect to Deferred Payments, unpaid Principal Payments hereunder shall not bear interest until such Principal Payments become due, either as scheduled or by acceleration. The Issuer shall pay interest (computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months) on any overdue Principal Payment, until the same shall be paid in full, at a rate per annum equal to 9%, plus a default premium of 2% per annum from the due date to the date of payment.

Subject to the Issuer’s right to pay all or a portion of each Principal Payment by delivering shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), pursuant to Section 2(c) or Section 2(e), as applicable, of this Note, all payments in respect of this Note shall be paid in such coin or currency of the United States as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, and shall be payable in Federal funds or other immediately available funds.

This Note is the New Note B referred to in the Securities Exchange Agreement dated as of [_______ __], 2009 among the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors listed in Schedule I thereto and Ford-UAW Holdings LLC (the “Exchange Agreement”). Terms defined in the Exchange Agreement are used herein as therein defined. Except as provided in the Exchange Agreement and subject to the limitations set forth therein, this Note may not be transferred at any time. The Holder is entitled to the benefits of the Exchange Agreement and may enforce the agreements, covenants and representations of the Issuer contained therein and exercise the remedies provided thereby or otherwise available in respect thereof.

Subject to the limitations set forth in the Exchange Agreement, Principal Payments on this Note, and interest on any overdue Principal Payments or on any Deferred Payments, are guaranteed by the Subsidiary Guarantors named in the Exchange Agreement pursuant to the Guaranty endorsed on the reverse hereof.

This Note has been designated by the Issuer as Primary Second Lien Debt and Second Priority Additional Debt in accordance with and subject to the terms of that certain Credit Agreement dated as of December 15, 2006 among the Issuer, the Subsidiary Borrowers from time to time parties thereto, the banks and other financial institutions or entities from time to time parties thereto (“Lenders”), and JPMorgan Chase Bank, as Administrative Agent for the Lenders (the “Credit Agreement”) and the Loan Documents (such term and other capitalized terms used in this paragraph but not otherwise defined in this Note or the Exchange Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement). As such, Principal Payments on this Note, and interest on any overdue Principal Payments or on any Deferred Payments, will be secured on a second lien basis with the Collateral pledged by the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors to the Lenders under and in accordance with the Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents, including the Collateral Trust Agreement dated as of December 15, 2006 among the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors and Wilmington Trust Company, as Collateral Trustee (the “Collateral Trust Agreement”), and the Security Agreement dated as of December 15, 2006 made by the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors in favor of said Collateral Trustee (the “Security Agreement”), subject to the limitations set forth Section 2.2 of the Exchange Agreement.

This Note and the Guaranty endorsed hereon shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

SECTION 1. Definitions.

“Accelerated Principal Amount” means the aggregate amount of Principal Payments that would be due and payable by the Issuer on the date of acceleration if the Issuer elected to prepay this Note in full on such date of acceleration. If the date of acceleration is a Payment Date, the corresponding Accelerated Principal Amount shall be equal to the Prepayment Amount corresponding to such Payment Date as set forth in Section 2(g). If, however, the date of acceleration is not a Payment Date, the corresponding Accelerated Principal Amount shall be equal to the sum of (x) the present value as of such date of acceleration of the Prepayment Amount corresponding to the Payment Date immediately following such date of acceleration (calculated assuming a discount rate of 9% per annum), and (y) unpaid Principal Payment(s), if any, that were due and payable prior to such date of acceleration. For example, if the date of acceleration were to be 90 days before the Payment Date of June 30, 2015, the Accelerated Principal Amount payable on such date of acceleration would be $2,324,379,248, calculated by discounting the $2,375,000,000 Prepayment Amount due on June 30, 2015 by 90 days assuming a discount rate of 9% per annum, plus any amounts payable under (y) above (computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months).

“Bankruptcy Event” means (i) the Issuer shall (A) commence any case, proceeding or other action under any existing or future law of any jurisdiction, domestic or foreign, relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or relief of debtors (1) seeking to have an order for relief entered with respect to it, or seeking to adjudicate it a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, winding up, liquidation, dissolution, composition or other relief with respect to it or its debts, or (2) seeking appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian, conservator or other similar official for it or for all or any substantial part of its assets, or (B) make a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or (ii) there shall be commenced against the Issuer any case, proceeding or other action of a nature referred to in clause (i) above that (A) results in the entry of an order for relief or any such adjudication or appointment or (B) remains undismissed, undischarged or unbonded for a period of 90 days.

“Closing Sale Price” means, as of any date, the last reported per share sales price of a share of Common Stock or any other security on such date (or, if no last reported sale price is reported, the average of the bid and ask prices or, if more than one in either case, the average of the average bid and the average ask prices on such date) as reported on the New York Stock Exchange, or if the Common Stock or such other security is not listed on the New York Stock Exchange, as reported by the principal U.S. national or regional securities exchange or quotation system on which the Common Stock or such other security is then listed or quoted; provided, however, that in the absence of such quotations, the board of directors of the Issuer will make a good faith determination of the Closing Sale Price. If during a period applicable for calculating the Closing Sale Price, an issuance, distribution, subdivision, combination or other transaction or event occurs that requires an adjustment to the Exercise Price (as such term is defined in the Warrant Agreement) pursuant to Article 5 of the Warrant Agreement, the Closing Sale Price shall be calculated for such period in a manner determined by the Issuer to appropriately reflect the impact of such issuance, distribution, subdivision or combination on the price of the Common Stock during such period.

“Collateral Trust Agreement” shall have the meaning set forth in the seventh paragraph of this Note.

“Commitment Letter” means the Conditional Commitment Letter by and between United States Department of Energy and Ford Motor Company, dated as of June 23, 2009.

“Debt” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 3(i).

“Deferred Payment” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 2(e)(i).

“ERISA Termination Event” means a “termination event” (as defined under Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended) with respect to the Ford-UAW Retirement Plan, covering the Issuer’s hourly employees represented by the UAW, and the General Retirement Plan, covering substantially all other employees in the United Sated hired by the Issuer on or before December 31, 2003.

“Event of Default” means an event of default under Issuer’s outstanding public debt securities, bank credit facilities, the New Notes, or other securities issued by the Issuer to the Holder.

“Ex-Date” means, in connection with any dividend, issuance or distribution, the first date on which the shares of Common Stock trade on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, without the right to receive such dividend, issuance or distribution.

“Exchange Act” means the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

“Exchange Agreement” shall have the meaning set forth in the fifth paragraph of this Note.

NO REPRESENTATION IS MADE HEREBY OR OTHERWISE BY THE ISSUER AS TO THE AVAILABILITY OF ANY EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT.

THE SALE, TRANSFER, ASSIGNMENT, HEDGE, PLEDGE, ENCUMBRANCE, HYPOTHECATION OR DISPOSAL OF THESE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK IS SUBJECT TO THE RESTRICTIONS, TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT. COPIES OF SUCH AGREEMENT MAY BE OBTAINED UPON WRITTEN REQUEST TO THE SECRETARY OF THE ISSUER.

Any such shares of Common Stock as to which such restrictions on transfer shall have expired in accordance with their terms such that the shares of Common Stock can be freely sold without limits under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities law may, upon surrender of the certificates representing such shares of Common Stock for exchange in accordance with the procedures of the transfer agent for the Common Stock (together with any legal opinion, certifications or other evidence as may reasonably be required by the Issuer or the transfer agent in order to determine that the proposed transfer is being made in compliance with the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws), be exchanged for a new certificate or certificates for a like number of shares of Common Stock, which shall not bear such legend.

(ii) Shares of Common Stock issued to the Holder pursuant to Section 2(c) in satisfaction of all or in portion of the Issuer’s obligation to pay the Principal Payment due on a Payment Date may not be reoffered, sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, encumbered or otherwise disposed of by the Holder except (A) in compliance with applicable transfer restrictions, if any, set forth in Section 2.02 of the Registration Rights Agreement and (B)(I) to the Issuer or a subsidiary thereof, (II) pursuant to a registration statement covering the resale of such shares of Common Stock that has become effective under the Securities Act, (III) pursuant to an exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act or (IV) to the New VEBA pursuant to the Amended Settlement Agreement.

No representation is made hereby of otherwise by the Issuer as to the availability of any exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

(g) The Issuer may prepay this Note, in whole or in part, on any Payment Date with concurrent written notice to the Holder. In the case of any prepayment in whole, the Issuer shall pay the amount set forth under the heading “Prepayment Amount” (the “Prepayment Amount”) for the relevant Payment Date as set forth in the table below. In the event of any partial prepayment, future Principal Payments shall be reduced in a proportionate manner determined by the Issuer, subject to review and confirmation by the Holder, so that the present value and duration of all of such reduced future Principal Payments under this Note, after giving effect to such prepayment, remain economically equivalent to the present value of the originally scheduled Principal Payments using a discount rate of 9% per annum. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any prepayment in respect of this Note shall be made in cash.

(h) If, on any day, the Issuer combines the Common Stock, the Stock Price Threshold will be increased based on the formula set forth in Annex A hereto.

(i) If any of the following events occur:

(i) any recapitalization;

(ii) any reclassification or change of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (other than changes resulting from a subdivision or combination to which Section 5.01(a) of the Warrant Agreement applies);

(iii) any consolidation, merger or combination involving the Issuer;

(iv) any sale or conveyance to a third party of all or substantially all of the Issuer’s assets; or

(v) any statutory share exchange;

(each such event a “Reorganization Event”), in each case as a result of which the Common Stock would be converted into, or exchanged for, stock, other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (the “Reference Property”), then, following the effective time of the transaction, in lieu of delivering Common Stock upon an election by the Issuer to settle all or any portion of its obligation to pay the Principal Payment due on a Payment Date pursuant to Section 2(c), the Issuer shall deliver the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) that a holder of one share of Common Stock would have owned or been entitled to receive in connection with such Reorganization Event (such kind and amount of Reference Property per share of Common Stock, a “Unit of Reference Property”). In the event holders of Common Stock have the opportunity to elect the form of consideration to be received in a Reorganization Event, the type and amount of consideration to be delivered from and after the effective time of such Reorganization Event upon an election by the Issuer to settle all or any portion of its obligation to pay the Principal Payment due on a Payment Date by delivering Common Stock pursuant to Section 2(c) shall be deemed to be the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration received by the holders of Common Stock in such Reorganization Event. If the Issuer becomes a party to any Reorganization Event with terms that are not consistent with this Section 2(i), thereafter, the Issuer shall not have the option to settle all or any portion of its obligation to pay the Principal Payment due on such Payment Date by delivering to the Holder shares of Common Stock or Units of Reference Property with an equal value based on the Stock Price as set forth in Section 2(c).

(j) At any time from, and including, the effective time of a Reorganization Event, if the Issuer elects to deliver Common Stock to settle all or any portion of its obligation to pay the Principal Payment due on a Payment Date pursuant to Section 2(c), in lieu of delivering Common Stock, the Issuer shall deliver a number of Units of Reference Property based on the value of a Unit of Reference Property (calculated as set forth in clause (k) below).

(k) The value of a Unit of Reference Property shall be determined as follows:

(i) any shares of common stock of the successor or purchasing corporation or any other corporation that are traded on a national or regional stock exchange included in such Unit of Reference Property shall be valued as if such shares were “Common Stock” using procedures set forth in the definition of “Closing Sale Price” in Section 1;

(ii) any other property (other than cash) included in such Unit of Reference Property shall be valued in good faith by the board of directors of the Issuer or by a New York Stock Exchange member firm selected by the board of directors of the Issuer; and

(iii) any cash included in such Unit of Reference Property shall be valued at the amount thereof.

(l) On or prior to the effective time of any Reorganization Event, the Issuer or the successor or purchasing entity, as the case may be, shall execute an amendment to this Note providing in lieu of delivering Common Stock upon an election by the Issuer to settle all or any portion of its obligation to pay the Principal Payment due on a Payment Date pursuant to Section 2(c), the Issuer shall deliver Units of Reference Property calculated pursuant clauses (j) and (k) above. If the Reference Property in connection with any Reorganization Event includes shares of stock or other securities and assets of an entity other than the successor or purchasing entity, as the case may be, in such Reorganization Event, then the Issuer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such amendment to this Note to be executed by such other entity and such amendment shall contain such additional provisions to protect the interests of the Holder as the board of directors of the Issuer shall reasonably consider necessary by reason of the foregoing. Any such amendment to this Note shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in Article 5 of the Warrant Agreement.

(m) The above provisions of this Section 2(i) through Section 2(l) shall similarly apply to successive Reorganization Events.

(c) Promptly after it provides them to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 6.3 of the Credit Agreement, the Issuer shall provide the Holder, at the Holder’s address specified in Section 8.1 of the Exchange Agreement, with copies of the compliance and Borrowing Base certificates it is required to deliver pursuant to said Section 6.3.

(e) (i) Each of the Issuer and the Subsidiary Guarantors may consolidate with, or sell or convey all or substantially all its assets to, or merge with or into, (1) any entity if the Issuer or such Subsidiary Guarantor or another Subsidiary Guarantor shall be the continuing entity or (2) any entity existing under the laws of (x) the United States, any state thereof, or the District of Columbia, in the case of the Issuer, and (y) any jurisdiction, in the case of a Significant Guarantor (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) in connection with an asset sale permitted under Section 7.5 of the Existing Credit Agreement; provided, however, that in the case of clause (1) there shall be no default or event of default continuing after giving effect to such transaction; and provided, further, that in the case of clause (2) that is not in connection with an asset sale that is permitted under Section 7.5 of the Existing Credit Agreement, (x) the successor entity shall expressly assume the due and punctual payment of Principal Payments on this Note and interest on any overdue Principal Payments or on any Deferred Payments, in the case of the Issuer, in accordance with its terms and the due and punctual performance and observance of all the covenants and conditions of the Exchange Agreement and this Note, in the case of the Issuer, or the Exchange Agreement and the Guaranty, in the case of a Subsidiary Guarantor, by an instrument satisfactory to the Holder in its reasonable judgment, executed and delivered to the Holder by such entity, and (y) such successor entity shall not, immediately after such merger or consolidation or such sale or conveyance, be in default in the performance of any such covenant or condition.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in this Note, if a Subsidiary Guarantor is released from its guaranty under the Credit Agreement, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall automatically be released from the Guaranty (without requirement of notice to or consent of the Holder). If requested by the Issuer, the Holder agrees to take promptly any action reasonably requested by the Issuer to evidence the release of such Subsidiary Guarantor from its Guaranty.

(f) Other than Permitted Liens, the Issuer shall not at any time have outstanding more than $20,485,000,000 principal amount of indebtedness for borrowed money secured on a first lien basis with its assets nor more than $14,400,000,000 principal amount of indebtedness for borrowed money secured on a second or junior lien basis with its assets; provided, however, that (i) any such indebtedness for borrowed money secured on a second or junior lien basis in excess of $4 billion (including the New Notes) (“Junior Lien Debt”) shall consist only of loans from or obligations to the U.S. Department of Energy or other federal governmental authorities (or a commercial bank and guaranteed by the U.S. Department of Energy or other federal governmental authority), (ii) any Junior Lien Debt shall be secured by a lien on Collateral pledged under the Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents, including the Collateral Trust Agreement and the Security Agreement that, although constituting Permitted Second Lien Debt thereunder, will, as between the Holder or any subsequent holder of the New Notes and the lenders of such Junior Lien Debt, be junior to the second lien securing the Note, and the priority of which will be governed by an intercreditor agreement among the parties hereto and the lenders of such Junior Lien Debt substantially similar to the intercreditor provisions of Section 8 of the Collateral Trust Agreement (as if the second lien securing the Note were a first priority secured obligation and the Junior Lien Debt were a second priority secured obligation), and (iii) this Note shall be amended to reflect the benefit of any terms contained in existing and future Junior Lien Debt if such terms, taken as whole, are more favorable to the lenders thereof than those contained herein for the benefit of the Holder or any subsequent holder of the Note (other than in respect of interest rates, fees, call protection or the absence of a call feature, premiums or maturity dates); provided, however, that to the extent the future Junior Lien Debt provides for specified project financing, this clause (iii) shall not apply to any terms that relate to such project or its eligibility for financing; provided further that any such amendments shall have effect only for so long as is necessary to comply with this clause (iii). For avoidance of doubt, such amendments shall no longer have effect after any such Junior Lien Debt is no longer outstanding or its terms, taken as whole, are no longer more favorable from a lender’s perspective than the terms of the Note without such amendments.

(ii) In the event the Existing Credit Agreement and/or Loan Documents (as defined therein) are amended or terminated such that the Covered Debt thereunder is no longer secured by any Collateral pledged thereunder for reasons other than the conditions in Section 10.15(c) of the Existing Credit Agreement having been met, and as a result this Note is no longer secured on a second lien basis by any Collateral pledged thereunder, then the Issuer shall promptly provide for replacement security of this Note in a manner consistent with that provided prior to such amendment or termination, which replacement security shall be reasonably acceptable to the Holder. For avoidance of doubt, such replacement security shall be deemed reasonably acceptable if it constitutes a second lien on collateral pledged under a new secured credit agreement entered into by Issuer.

(h) From time to time, while this Note is outstanding, upon the reasonable request of the Holder, officials of the Issuer will confer with officials of the Holder and advise them as to matters bearing on the Issuer’s and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ financial condition.

(iv) Within 60 days of the occurrence thereof, the Issuer will notify the Collateral Trustee, the Administrative Agent and the Holder of any changes to the name, jurisdiction of incorporation or legal form of the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor.
