U N I T ED ST AT ES T AX AT I ON
The following is a discussion of the material United States federal income tax and, in the case of a non-United States person, United States
federal estate tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of a Note. It applies to you only if you are the beneficial owner of a
Note that you acquire at its original issuance at the issue price indicated on the cover page of this prospectus supplement and you hold the Note as a
capital asset within the meaning of section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). This discussion does not apply to
holders that are subject to special treatment under the United States federal income tax law, such as:
·
dealers in securities or currencies;
·
financial institutions or life insurance companies;
·
tax-exempt organizations;
·
S corporations, real estate investment trusts or regulated investment companies;
·
persons holding Notes as part of a hedge, straddle, conversion or other "synthetic security" or integrated transaction;
·
taxpayers subject to the alternative minimum tax;
·
U.S. holders (as defined below) with a functional currency other than the United States dollar; or
·
certain United States expatriates.
S-2
Table of Contents
The discussion is based on the Code, Treasury regulations (including temporary regulations) promulgated thereunder, rulings, published
administrative positions of the United States Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") and judicial decisions, all as of the date of this prospectus
supplement, and all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect, or to different interpretations.
This discussion does not purport to address all of the United States federal income tax consequences that may be applicable to you
in light of your personal investment circumstances or status, including the Medicare tax on net investment income. Prospective purchasers
of Notes should consult their own tax advisors concerning United States federal income tax consequences of acquiring, owning and
disposing of the Notes, as well as any state, local or foreign tax consequences.
U .S. H olde rs
This section describes the material United States federal income tax consequences to U.S. holders. You are a "U.S. holder" for purposes of this
discussion if you are, for United States federal income tax purposes:
·
an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;
http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/38009/000104746916012798/a2228503z424b2.htm[5/2/2016 5:08:36 PM]

·
a corporation (or other entity treated as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes) created or organized in or under
the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;
·
an estate that is subject to United States federal income taxation without regard to the source of its income; or
·
a trust if (1) a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more
United States persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (2) a valid election is in effect under
applicable Treasury regulations for the trust to be treated as a United States person.
If a United States partnership (including for this purpose any entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for United States federal income tax
purposes) is a beneficial owner of the Notes, the treatment of a partner in the partnership generally will depend upon the status of the partner and
upon the activities of the partnership. A holder of Notes that is a partnership and partners in such partnership should consult their tax advisors.
Interest. Generally, a U.S. holder will include stated interest on the Notes as ordinary income at the time it is paid or accrued in accordance
with the U.S. holder's method of accounting for United States federal income tax purposes.
Sale or Other Disposition of Notes. Upon the sale or other taxable disposition of a Note, a U.S. holder generally will recognize gain or loss
equal to the difference between the amount realized on the sale or other disposition, except to the extent such amount is attributable to accrued but
unpaid stated interest (which will be treated as interest as described above), and the holder's tax basis in the Note. Your tax basis in your Note
generally will be your cost of the Note.
Gain or loss so recognized will be capital gain or loss and will be long-term capital gain or loss if your holding period in the Note exceeds one
year. Long-term capital gains recognized by non-corporate holders generally will be subject to a lower tax rate than the rate applicable to ordinary
income. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

N on -U nit e d St a t e s H olde rs
This section describes the material United States federal income and estate tax consequences to non-United States persons. For purposes of
this discussion, a non-United States person is a beneficial owner of a Note that is neither a U.S. holder nor an entity or arrangement that is treated
as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes. Subject to the discussions of backup withholding and FATCA below:
(i) payments of principal and interest on a Note that is beneficially owned by a non-United States person will not be subject to the 30%
United States federal withholding tax; provided, that in the case of interest, (x) (a) the beneficial owner does not actually or constructively own
10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of Ford Motor Company entitled to vote, (b) the beneficial owner is not
a controlled foreign corporation that is related, directly or indirectly, to Ford Motor Company through stock ownership, and (c) either (I) the
beneficial owner of the Note provides a properly completed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E to the person otherwise required to withhold
United States federal income tax from such interest certifying, under penalties of perjury, that, among other things, it is not a United States
person and provides its name and address or (II) a securities clearing organization, bank or other financial institution that holds customers'
securities in the ordinary course of its trade or business (a "financial institution"), and holds the Note on behalf of a non-United States person,
certifies to the person otherwise required to withhold United States federal income tax from such interest, under penalties of perjury, that the
certification described above in clause (I) has been received from the beneficial owner by it or by a financial institution between it and the
beneficial owner and furnishes the payor with a copy thereof; (y) the beneficial owner is entitled to the benefits of an income tax treaty under
which the interest is exempt from United States federal withholding tax and the beneficial owner of the Note or such owner's agent provides a
properly completed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E claiming the exemption; or (z) the beneficial owner conducts a trade or business in the
United States to which the interest is effectively connected and the beneficial owner of the Note or such owner's agent provides a properly
completed IRS Form W-8ECI; provided that in each such case, the relevant certification or IRS Form is delivered pursuant to applicable
procedures and is properly transmitted to the person otherwise required to withhold United States federal income tax, and none of the persons
receiving the relevant certification or IRS Form has actual knowledge that the certification or any statement on the IRS Form is false;
(ii) a non-United States person will not be subject to United States federal income or withholding tax on any gain realized on the sale,
exchange or redemption of a Note unless the gain is effectively connected with the beneficial owner's trade or business in the United States
or, in the case of an individual, the holder is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year in which the sale,
exchange or redemption occurs and certain other conditions are met; and
(iii) a Note owned by an individual who at the time of death is not a citizen or resident of the United States will not be subject to United
States federal estate tax as a result of such individual's death if the individual does not actually or constructively own 10% or more of the total
combined voting power of all classes of stock of Ford Motor Company entitled to vote and the income on the Note would not have been
effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business of the individual.
Interest on a Note that is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States by a holder of a Note who is a non-
United States person (and, if an applicable tax treaty so requires, is attributable to a permanent establishment in the United States of such holder),
S-4
http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/38009/000104746916012798/a2228503z424b2.htm[5/2/2016 5:08:36 PM]

Table of Contents
although exempt from United States withholding tax (provided the non-United States person provides the appropriate certification), generally will be
subject to United States income tax in the same manner as if such interest was earned by a U.S. holder. In addition, if such holder is a non-United
States corporation, it may be subject to a branch profits tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate provided by an applicable income tax treaty) of its
annual earnings and profits that are so effectively connected, subject to specific adjustments.
Ba c k up Wit hholding a nd I nform a t ion Re port ing
In general, information reporting requirements will apply to certain payments of principal and interest made on a Note and the proceeds of the
sale of a Note within the United States to non-corporate U.S. holders of the Notes, and "backup withholding" generally will apply to such payments if
the holder fails to provide an accurate taxpayer identification number (on an IRS Form W-9) in the manner required or to report all interest and
dividends required to be shown on its United States federal income tax returns.
Information reporting on IRS Form 1099 and backup withholding generally will not apply to payments made by Ford Credit or a paying agent to
a non-United States person on a Note if a properly completed certification of foreign status on an appropriate IRS Form W-8 is provided to Ford
Credit or its paying agent, as described above.
Payments of the proceeds from the sale of a Note made to or through a foreign office of a broker generally will not be subject to information
reporting or backup withholding, except that if the broker is a United States person, a controlled foreign corporation for United States tax purposes, a
foreign person 50% or more of whose gross income is effectively connected with a United States trade or business for a specified three-year period,
a foreign partnership with specific connections to the United States, or a United States branch of a foreign bank or foreign insurance company,
information reporting may apply to such payments. Payments of the proceeds from the sale of a Note to or through the United States office of a
broker are subject to information reporting and backup withholding unless the holder or beneficial owner properly certifies that it is a non-United
States person and that it satisfies certain other conditions or otherwise establishes an exemption from information reporting and backup withholding.
Backup withholding is not a separate tax, but is allowed as a refund or credit against the holder's United States federal income tax, provided the
necessary information is furnished to the IRS.
Interest on a Note that is beneficially owned by a non-United States person will be reported annually on IRS Form 1042-S, which must be filed
with the Internal Revenue Service and furnished to such beneficial owner. Copies of information returns may be provided to tax authorities in a
beneficial owner's country of residence pursuant to a treaty or other agreement.
FAT CA
Withholding taxes may be imposed under the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act ("FATCA") on certain types of payments made to certain
foreign financial institutions and certain other non-U.S. entities.
Specifically, a 30% withholding tax may be imposed on payments of interest on, and payments of gross proceeds from the sale or other
disposition of, Notes made to a "foreign financial institution" or a "non-financial foreign entity" (in each case, as defined in the Code), regardless of
whether such foreign institution or entity is a beneficial owner or an intermediary, unless (1) in the
S-5
Table of Contents
case of a foreign financial institution, the foreign financial institution undertakes certain diligence and reporting obligations, (2) in the case of a non-
financial foreign entity, the non-financial foreign entity either certifies it does not have any "substantial United States owners" (as defined in the Code)
or furnishes identifying information regarding each substantial United States owner and satisfies certain other requirements or (3) the foreign financial
institution or non-financial foreign entity otherwise qualifies for an exemption from these rules. If the payee is a foreign financial institution and is
subject to the diligence and reporting requirements described in clause (1) above, it must enter into an agreement with the U.S. Department of the
Treasury requiring, among other things, that it undertake to identify accounts held by certain "U.S. persons" or "U.S.-owned foreign entities" (in each
case, as defined in the Code), annually report certain information about such accounts and withhold 30% on certain payments to non-compliant
foreign financial institutions and certain other account holders. Foreign financial institutions located in jurisdictions that have an intergovernmental
agreement with the United States governing FATCA may be subject to different rules. Withholding under FATCA generally will apply to payments of
interest on a Note regardless of when they are made. However, under the applicable Treasury Regulations and IRS guidance, withholding under
FATCA generally will only apply to payments of gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of a note on or after January 1, 2019.
Prospective purchasers of Notes should consult their tax advisors regarding the consequences and application of the rules under FATCA.

Under the terms and conditions of the Underwriting Agreement and the related Pricing Agreement, if the Underwriters take any of the Notes of a
series, then they are obligated to take and pay for all of the Notes of that series.
The Underwriters have advised Ford Credit that they propose initially to offer the Notes directly to purchasers at the respective initial public
offering price set forth on the cover page of this prospectus supplement, and may offer the Notes to certain securities dealers at such price less a
concession not in excess of 0.125% of the initial public offering price of the 2019 Notes, and not in excess of 0.250% of the initial public offering
price of the 2023 Notes. The Underwriters may allow, and such dealers may reallow, a concession not in excess of 0.050% of the initial public
offering price of the 2019 Notes, and not in excess of 0.100% of the initial public offering price of the 2023 Notes to certain other dealers. After each
series of the Notes is released for sale to the public, the offering price and other selling terms with respect to the Notes may from time to time be
varied by the Underwriters.

Table of Contents
One or more of the Underwriters may not be U.S.-registered broker-dealers. All sales of securities in the U.S. will be made by or through U.S.-
registered broker-dealers.
Each series of the Notes is a new issue of securities with no established trading market. Ford Credit has been advised by the Underwriters that
they intend to make a market in each series of the Notes, but they are not obligated to do so and may discontinue such market-making at any time
without notice. No assurance can be given as to the liquidity of the trading market for either series of the Notes.
In connection with the offering, the Underwriters in the United States may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the
price of the Notes. Specifically, the Underwriters may over-allot in connection with the offering, creating a short position with respect to either series
of the Notes. In addition, the Underwriters may bid for, and purchase, Notes in the open market to cover any short position or to stabilize the price of
the Notes. Any of these activities may stabilize or maintain the market price of either series of the Notes above independent market levels. The
Underwriters are not required to engage in these activities, and may end any of these activities at any time.
In connection with the offering of the Notes, the stabilizing manager(s) outside the United States (or persons acting on their behalf) may over-
allot either series of the Notes or effect transactions with a view to supporting the market price of either series of the Notes at a level higher than that
which might otherwise prevail. However, there is no assurance that the stabilizing manager(s) (or persons acting on their behalf) will undertake
stabilization action. Any stabilization action may begin on or after the date on which adequate public disclosure of the terms of the offer of the
relevant Notes is made and, if begun, may be ended at any time, but it must end no later than 30 days after the date on which the Issuer received

the proceeds of the issue, or no later than 60 days after the date of allotment of the relevant securities, whichever is the earlier. Any stabilization
action or over-allotment must be conducted by the stabilizing manager(s) (or person(s) acting on behalf of any stabilizing manager(s)) in accordance
with all applicable laws and rules.
N o Public Offe ring Out side t he U nit e d St a t e s
No action has been or will be taken in any jurisdiction outside of the United States of America that would permit a public offering of the Notes, or
the possession, circulation or distribution of this prospectus supplement or any material relating to Ford Credit, in any jurisdiction where action for that
purpose is required. Accordingly, the Notes included in this offering may not be offered, sold or exchanged, directly or indirectly, and neither this
prospectus supplement or any other offering material or advertisements in connection with this offering may be distributed or published, in or from
any such country or jurisdiction, except in compliance with any applicable rules or regulations of any such country or jurisdiction.

Prospectus Directive, subject to obtaining the prior consent of the Underwriters; or
(c) in any other circumstances falling within Article 3(2) of the Prospectus Directive,
provided that no such offer of Notes shall require Ford Credit or any Underwriter to publish a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus
Directive or supplement a prospectus pursuant to Article 16 of the Prospectus Directive.
In this section, the expression an offer of Notes to the public in relation to any Notes in any Member State means the communication in any
form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and the Notes to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to
purchase or subscribe the Notes, as the same may be varied in that Member State by any measure implementing the Prospectus Directive in that
Member State. The expression Prospectus Directive means Directive 2003/71/EC (as amended), and includes any relevant implementing measure in
the Member State concerned.
This prospectus supplement has been prepared on the basis that any offer of Notes in any Member State of the European Economic Area will
be made pursuant to an exemption under the Prospectus Directive from the requirement to publish a prospectus for offers of Notes.

Ford Credit has agreed to indemnify the several Underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended. Ford Credit estimates that it will spend approximately $250,000 for printing, registration fees, rating agency and other expenses related to
the offering of the Notes. The Underwriters have agreed to reimburse Ford Credit for certain expenses.
In the ordinary course of their respective businesses, certain of the Underwriters and their respective affiliates have engaged, and may in the
future engage, in commercial banking, general financing, corporate trust and/or investment banking transactions with Ford Credit, Ford and certain of
their affiliates. They have received, or may in the future receive, customary fees and commissions for these transactions.
In addition, in the ordinary course of their various business activities, the Underwriters and their respective affiliates may make or hold a broad
array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for
their own account and for the accounts of their customers, and such investment and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of
Ford Credit or Ford. Certain of the Underwriters or their affiliates that have a lending relationship with Ford Credit, Ford and certain of their affiliates
routinely hedge their credit exposure to Ford Credit, Ford and certain of their affiliates consistent with their customary risk management policies.
Typically, such Underwriters and their affiliates would hedge such exposure by entering into transactions which consist of either the purchase of credit
default swaps or the creation of short positions in our securities, including potentially the Notes offered hereby. Any such credit default swaps or short
positions could adversely affect future trading prices of the Notes offered hereby. The Underwriters and their respective affiliates may also make
investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or instruments and may at any time
hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.

The financial statements and management's assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting (which is included in
Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting) incorporated in this prospectus supplement by reference to the Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 have been so incorporated in reliance on the report of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an
independent registered public accounting firm, given on the authority of said firm as experts in auditing and accounting.
With respect to the unaudited financial information of Ford Credit for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, incorporated by
reference in this prospectus supplement, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP reported that it has applied limited procedures in accordance with professional
standards for a review of such information. However, its separate report dated April 28, 2016, incorporated by reference herein, states that
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP did not audit and
S-10

does not express an opinion on that unaudited financial information. Accordingly, the degree of reliance on its report on such information should be
restricted in light of the limited nature of the review procedures applied. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is not subject to the liability provisions of
Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), for its report on the unaudited financial information because that report is not a
"report" or a "part" of the registration statement prepared or certified by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP within the meaning of Sections 7 and 11 of the
Act.
