27 DEALER RISK RATING ASSESSMENT •Ford Credit uses a proprietary scoring model to evaluate new dealer account originations, perform ongoing credit reviews of dealers and assign risk ratings to dealers •Dealer risk ratings are categorized into groups •Large sample size and significant historical experience have been analyzed to identify key indicators that predict a dealer’s ability to meet its financial obligations, including capitalization and leverage, liquidity and cash flow, profitability, credit history and payment performance •Risk rating is based on the dealer and does not take into account the personal guarantees or net worth of the owners •Origination scoring model is validated regularly to ensure the integrity and performance of the model and is updated if necessary Group Description I Strong to superior financial metrics II Fair to favorable financial metrics III Marginal to weak financial metrics IV Poor financial metrics, may be uncollectible Other Includes dealers that have no dealer risk rating because Ford Credit only provides in-transit financing or because Ford Credit is in the process of terminating the financing for such dealer

 


28 DEALER BEHAVIORAL ASSESSMENT •Ford Credit uses a proprietary behavior scoring model, Monthly Accounts Review (MAR), to assess each dealer monthly –MAR rating directs the intensity and frequency of our dealer monitoring and controls •Large sample size and significant historical experience have been analyzed to identify key indicators that predict a dealer’s near-term ability to meet its financial obligations –MAR utilizes the dealer’s most recent unadjusted financial metrics, payment performance and credit line utilization •MAR allows Ford Credit to identify behavior risks and appropriately allocate resources to resolve issues before they escalate •MAR is validated regularly to ensure integrity and performance of the model and is updated if necessary

For periods ending after September 30, 2011, average principal balance is the average of the principal balances of the receivables at the beginning of each month in the period indicated. For periods prior to September 30, 2011, average principal balance for each period indicated is the average of the average principal balances for each month in such period based on the average of the daily principal balances for such month. 2)Net losses in any period are gross losses, including actual losses and estimated losses, less any recoveries, including actual recoveries and reductions in the amount of estimated losses, in each case, for such period. This loss experience also reflects recoveries from dealer assets other than the financed vehicles. However, because the interest of the trust in any other dealer assets will be subordinated to Ford Credit’s interest in such assets, the net losses experienced by the trust may be higher. 3)For the non-annual periods, the percentages are annualized. 4)Liquidations represent payments and net losses that reduce the principal balance of the receivables for the period indicated. 5)The Trust has not experienced a loss on any receivable during the indicated periods, primarily as a result of the depositors choosing to remove any receivables relating to accounts that are redesignated from the trust because they have been classified as status. However, the depositors are not required to do so, and there can be no assurance that they will continue to do so in the future. 6)Average principal balance is the average of the principal balances of the receivables at the beginning of each month in the period indicated. 7)Net losses in any period are gross losses, including actual losses and estimated losses, less any recoveries, including actual recoveries and reductions in the amount of estimated losses, in each case, for such period. Recoveries include amounts received from any other dealer assets securing the receivables in addition to the financed vehicles.
