Debt Securities. Pursuant to Registration Statement No. 33-
45887, Ford Motor Company, a Delaware corporation ("Ford"), in
August 1992, registered Debt Securities of Ford ("Debt
Securities") in the principal amount of $1,000,000,000. The Debt
Securities were registered on Form S-3 to be offered on a delayed
or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 4l5 under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended. The Debt Securities are to be issued under
an Indenture dated as of February 15, 1992 between Ford and The
Bank of New York, as Trustee (the "Indenture"). In connection
therewith, Ford has entered into an underwriting agreement dated
November 9, 1995 (the "Underwriting Agreement") with Lehman
Brothers Inc. and a pricing agreement dated November 9, 1995 (the
"Pricing Agreement") with Lehman Brothers Inc., as representative
of the several Underwriters named in Schedule I thereto (the
"Underwriters").
Ford has created a series of Debt Securities under the
Indenture in the aggregate principal amount of $300,000,000.
Such series has been designated as Ford's 7 1/8% Debentures due
November 15, 2025 (the "Debentures"). The Debentures are being
offered by the Underwriters pursuant to the Underwriting
Agreement and the Pricing Agreement. The entire issue of the
Debentures will be represented by two global securities, one in
the principal amount of $200,000,000 and one in the principal
amount of $100,000,000 (the "Global Debentures"), except that in
certain circumstances as provided in the Indenture the Global
Debentures will be exchanged for Debentures in definitive form
(the "Definitive Debentures"). Copies of the Underwriting
Agreement, the Pricing Agreement, the form of Global Debenture
and the form of Definitive Debenture are being filed as exhibits
to this Report.
