Second Lien Debt Limitation. Section 8.6 of the Note Purchase Agreement restricts Ford from having more than $4 billion of second lien debt secured by its assets outstanding at any time, subject to certain exceptions.

Consistent with the terms of the amendment set forth in paragraph 1 above, the parties to the Note Purchase Agreement hereby agree to amend the Note Purchase Agreement by amending Section 8.5 of the Note Purchase Agreement and adding new sections 8.9 through 8.23 as additional covenants of Ford, each as set forth in Attachment B hereto. Capitalized terms used in Attachment B and not otherwise defined in the Note Purchase Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents.

Additions and Deletions of Guarantors. The parties to the Note Purchase Agreement hereby agree to amend Schedule 1 thereto to read in its entirety as set forth in Attachment C hereto to reflect the deletion of Land Rover North America, Inc. as a Subsidiary Guarantor and the addition of Ford BH1 Ltd, Ford BH2 Ltd and Volvo Holding Company Inc. as Subsidiary Guarantors and Non-Recourse Parties under the Note Purchase Agreement and the Guaranty endorsed on the Note, such deletions and additions having been made in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.

Amendment to Sections 9(c) and (h). The parties to the Note Purchase Agreement hereby agree to amend the Note Purchase Agreement by changing Section 9(c) and Section 9(h) to read as follows:

"(c) the Issuer or any Significant Guarantor (as defined in the Credit Agreement) shall default in the observance or performance of (i) its agreements under Section 8.2, (ii) its agreements under Section 8.13 or Section 8.14 for a period of 20 consecutive days or (iii) any other agreement contained in this Agreement and, with respect to clause (iii) only, such default shall continue unremedied for a period of 30 days after notice thereof to the Issuer by the holder of the Note; or"

“(h)(i) an Event of Default under clause (d), (e), (g), (h) or (k) of Section 8 of the Credit Agreement shall have occurred and be continuing; or (ii) an Event of Default under any other clause of Section 8 of the Credit Agreement shall have occurred and be continuing that has resulted in any outstanding indebtedness or other obligations thereunder to be declared immediately due and payable;”.

ATTACHMENT A

8.6 Limitation on Secured Debt. Other than Permitted Liens (as defined below), 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 Note) ("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 Purchaser or any subsequent holder of the Note 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 Agreement 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 Purchaser 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.

"Permitted Liens" for purposes hereof shall mean:

(a) liens for taxes, assessments, governmental charges and utility charges, in each case that are not yet subject to penalties for non-payment or that are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings; provided that adequate reserves with respect thereto are maintained on the books of the Issuer in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP");

(f) liens arising from UCC financing statement filings (or similar filings) regarding or otherwise arising under leases entered into by the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries or in connection with sales of accounts, payment intangibles, chattel paper or instruments;

(g) purchase money liens on property (other than shares of capital stock or indebtedness) existing at the time of acquisition (including acquisition through amalgamation, merger or consolidation) or to secure the payment of any part of the purchase price thereof or to secure any indebtedness incurred prior to, at the time of, or within 60 days after, the acquisition of such property for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price thereof or to secure indebtedness provided, or guaranteed, by a governmental authority to finance research and development, limited in each case to the property purchased (or developed) with the proceeds thereof;

(h) other than liens existing pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents (as defined therein), liens in existence on the Closing Date; provided that no such lien is spread to cover any additional property after the Closing Date and that the amount of indebtedness for borrowed money

secured thereby is not increased;

(i) liens on property or capital stock of a person at the time such person becomes a subsidiary of the Issuer; provided however, that such liens are not created, incurred or assumed in connection with, or in contemplation of, such other person becoming a subsidiary; provided further, however, that any such lien may not extend to any other property owned by the Issuer or any subsidiary of the Issuer;

(j) liens on property at the time the Issuer acquires the property, including any acquisition by means of a merger or consolidation with or into the Issuer; provided, however, that such liens are not created, incurred or assumed in connection with, or in contemplation of, such acquisition; provided further, however, that such liens may not extend to any other property owned by the Issuer or any subsidiary of the Issuer;

(k) any lien securing the renewal, refinancing, replacing, refunding, amendment, extension or modification, as a whole or in part, of any indebtedness secured by any lien permitted by clause (g), (h), (i), (j), and (u) of this definition or this paragraph (k) without any change in the assets subject to such lien;

(l) any lien arising out of claims under a judgment or award rendered or claim filed, so long as such judgments, awards or claims do not constitute an event of default under the Credit Agreement;

(m) any lien consisting of rights reserved to or vested in any governmental authority by any statutory provision;

(n) liens created in the ordinary course of business in favor of banks and other financial institutions over credit balances of any bank accounts held at such banks or financial institutions or over investment property held in a securities account, as the case may be, to facilitate the operation of cash pooling and/or interest set-off arrangements in respect of such bank accounts or securities accounts in the ordinary course of business;

(o) liens in favor of lessors pursuant to sale and leaseback transactions to the extent the disposition of the asset subject to any such sale and leaseback transaction is permitted under the Credit Agreement;

(p) liens under industrial revenue, municipal or similar bonds;

(q) liens on securities accounts (other than liens to secure indebtedness for borrowed money);

(r) statutory liens incurred or pledges or deposits made in favor of a governmental authority to secure the performance of obligations of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries under environmental laws to which any assets of the Issuer or any such subsidiaries are subject;

(s) liens granted by the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries to a landlord to secure the payment of arrears of rent in respect of leased properties in the Province of Quebec leased from such landlord, provided that any such lien is limited to the assets located at or about such leased properties;

(t) servicing agreements, development agreements, site plan agreements and other agreements with governmental authorities pertaining to the use or development of any of the property and assets of the Issuer consisting of real property, provided same are complied with; and

(u) liens not otherwise permitted by the foregoing clauses securing obligations or other liabilities of the Issuer; provided that the outstanding amount of all such obligations and liabilities shall not exceed $500,000,000 at any time.

8.19 Negative Pledge. The Issuer will not itself, and will not 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 herein called “Debt”), secured by pledge of, or mortgage or lien on, any Principal Domestic Manufacturing Property of the Issuer or any Manufacturing Subsidiary, or any shares of stock of or Debt of any Manufacturing Subsidiary (such mortgages, pledges and liens being hereinafter called “Pledge” or “Pledges”), without effectively providing that the 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 of the Issuer and its Manufacturing Subsidiaries in respect of Sale and Leaseback Transactions would not exceed 5% of the Consolidated Net Tangible Automotive Assets; provided, however, that this Section 8.19 shall not apply to Debt secured by:

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

8.20 Sales and Leasebacks. The Issuer will not itself, and it will not permit any Manufacturing Subsidiary 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 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:

(a) the Issuer or such Manufacturing Subsidiary could create Debt secured by a Mortgage pursuant to Section 8.19 on the Principal Domestic Manufacturing Property to be leased in an amount equal to the Attributable Debt with respect to such Sale and Leaseback Transaction without equally and ratably securing the Note; or

(b) 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:

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

8.21. Changes in Subsidiary Guarantors. If any subsidiary of the Issuer, other than the subsidiaries that are parties to the Guaranty, guarantees the Credit Agreement, the Issuer shall promptly cause such subsidiary to become a party to the Guaranty. If any subsidiary of the Issuer that is a party to the Guaranty no longer guarantees the Credit Agreement in accordance with its terms, that subsidiary automatically shall be deemed to have been released from the Guaranty and the Purchaser or any holder of the Note shall, at the request of the Issuer or such subsidiary, promptly execute and deliver such documents as shall reasonably evidence such release.

8.22 Amendment. If the terms of any applicable covenant (and any equivalent or related provision or related definition) in Section 6 and Section 7 of the Credit Agreement are amended or modified or a replacement credit agreement is executed in connection with any refinancing of the Credit Agreement, the corresponding covenant in Sections 8.9 through 8.20 of this Note (and any equivalent or related provision or related definition herein) will, subject to Section 8.23, be deemed to be automatically amended accordingly.

8.23 Limited Applicability. Subject in all respects to clause (iii) of the first proviso in Section 8.6, if (i) the Loan Documents (as defined in the Commitment Letter) cease to be in full force and effect or (ii) the multi-draw term loan facility set forth in the Loan Documents (as defined in the Commitment Letter) ceases to constitute a Junior Lien Debt as a result of the circumstances described in the last paragraph of Section 15 of the Term Sheet attached to the Commitment Letter as Appendix A thereto, the covenants set forth in Sections 8.9 through 8.20 shall not apply and Section 9(h) shall be deemed to be automatically amended and restated to read as follows: "an event of default under the Credit Agreement shall have occurred and be continuing that has resulted in any outstanding indebtedness or other obligations thereunder to be declared immediately due and payable." "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.
