Tracinda Announces Tender Offer for 20,000,000 Shares of Common Stock of Ford Motor Company -

Tracinda Corporation today announced that it intends to make a cash tender offer for up to 20,000,000 shares of common stock of Ford Motor Company (NYSE: F) at a price of $8.50 per share. The offer price represents a 13.3% premium over Ford's closing stock price of $7.50 on April 25, 2008 and a 38.7% premium over Ford's closing stock price on April 2, 2008, the day upon which Tracinda began accumulating shares in the company.

The shares to be purchased pursuant to the offer represent approximately 1% of the outstanding shares of Ford Motor Company common stock. Tracinda Corporation, of which Kirk Kerkorian is the sole shareholder, currently owns 100,000,000 shares of Ford common stock, which represents approximately 4.7% of the outstanding shares. Tracinda's average cost for such shares is approximately $6.91 per share. Upon completion of the offer, Tracinda would beneficially own 120,000,000 shares of Ford common stock, or approximately 5.6% of the outstanding shares.

Tracinda has been following Ford closely since the company released its fourth quarter 2007 results which indicated that Ford's management was starting to achieve highly meaningful traction in its turnaround efforts. Last week this was reinforced by Ford's first quarter 2008 results, achieved despite the difficult U.S. economic environment. Tracinda believes that Ford management under the leadership of Chief Executive Officer Alan Mulally will continue to show significant improvements in its results going forward.

Once the tender offer is commenced, offering materials will be mailed to Ford stockholders and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Ford stockholders are urged to read the offering materials when they become available because they will contain important information.

The tender offer will be subject to customary conditions for transactions of this type, including expiration of any applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended. Tracinda's offer will not be subject to financing.

THIS DOCUMENT IS NEITHER AN OFFER TO PURCHASE NOR A SOLICITATION OF AN OFFER TO SELL SECURITIES. TRACINDA HAS NOT YET COMMENCED THE TENDER OFFER DESCRIBED HEREIN. THE TENDER OFFER WILL BE MADE ONLY THROUGH AN OFFER TO PURCHASE AND RELATED LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL. INVESTORS AND SECURITY HOLDERS ARE STRONGLY ADVISED TO READ THE TENDER OFFER STATEMENT OF TRACINDA AND THE RELATED LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL WHEN SUCH DOCUMENTS ARE FILED AND BECOME AVAILABLE, BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION. THE TENDER OFFER STATEMENT WILL BE FILED BY TRACINDA WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION ("SEC"). INVESTORS AND SECURITY HOLDERS MAY OBTAIN A FREE COPY OF THIS STATEMENT (WHEN FILED AND AVAILABLE) AND OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTS ON THE SEC'S WEB SITE AT: HTTP://WWW.SEC.GOV. THE TENDER OFFER STATEMENT AND RELATED MATERIALS MAY ALSO BE OBTAINED FOR FREE BY DIRECTING SUCH REQUESTS TO TRACINDA.
