performance of our common stock against the Standard & Poors 500 Stock Index and against either a published
industry or line-of-business index or a group of peer issuers. Ford chose the other principal U.S. auto manufacturer –
General Motors – as its peer issuer for the graph. We think this approach is more informative since a relevant line-of-
business index would merely combine the U.S. automakers. The graph assumes an initial investment of $100 and the
reinvestment of dividends.
