FORD, MERCURY, LINCOLN

2003 MY National Commercial Program Details

FIN Requirement

• A Ford Fleet Identification Number (FIN) is required to qualify for National Fleet Incentives and special fleet credits and adjustments (e.g. Taurus 20F Credit). Fleet accounts may apply for a FIN code by calling 1-800-34-FLEET.
• Fleet management companies, banks, credit unions, other financial institutions and body modification companies are eligible to request national fleet incentives/credits only if the end-user FIN of the vehicle (i.e. lessee/purchaser) has met the fleet eligibility requirements and has received a FIN code. All fleet management companies and body modifier orders must include their own FIN code and the end-user FIN code. (Requirement applies to units ordered from production OR sold out of stock.)

• Orders submitted with an end-user FIN code of 9Z999 are not eligible for fleet incentives or marketing credits.

• A FIN code is required to order from fleet allocation pool.

• To qualify for a FIN code, an end-user must meet the following requirements:

— Have registered or leased for use in their operation 5 or more new vehicles (any make or model) during the current or preceding calendar or model year, or preceding 12 month period, OR
— Currently have a fleet of 15 or more vehicles, owned or leased (any make or model) in the United States, OR
— Currently have a fleet of 5 or more vehicles, all of which are over 20,000 GVW, owned or leased (any make or model) in the United States (production allocation restricted to F650/750 vehicle line only).

• The minimum in-service requirement for commercial vehicles is 12 months or 20,000 miles (whichever comes first). Customers acquiring vehicles using FIN codes with or without national fleet incentives are subject to all 2003MY fleet program rules, including in-service requirements.
• Customers who violate the minimum in-service requirement outlined in this letter (further details on http://www.ford.fleet.com) are subject to cancellation of their FIN code and/or fleet incentive charge-backs.

• Payments
To be eligible for payment, national fleet incentives must be claimed within 1 year of the date of sale or lease.
•Review/Charge-back Period
The review/charge-back period remains unchanged for 2003MY. North American Sales Accounting Dealer Audit Staff will review fleet incentive payments and process appropriate charge-backs within the latter of:

— 2 years from the date the national fleet incentive is paid, OR
— 2 years from the date the dealer/leasing company reported vehicles sold with the national fleet incentive

• Acceptance of an order by the ordering system from a dealer or leasing company will not constitute a commitment from Ford to build a vehicle. Ford reserves the right to limit production, cancel, amend, revise or revoke any program at any time.
• National incentives, including Commercial Fleet Credits and Special Fleet Account Credits, will be deducted from the factory invoice on vehicles ordered from production. In general, fleet units should be ordered from production; however, Ford and Lincoln Mercury dealers can request invoice adjustments on vehicles sold to fleet customers from dealer stock. However, they must be reinvoiced and reported sold fleet in order to receive applicable fleet incentives.
• Vehicles must be delivered and registered in the 50 United States. Vehicles intended for shipment outside the 50 United States are ineligible for fleet incentives.
