Based on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Transaction closing price of the Common Stock on that date ($14.86 per share), the aggregate market value of such Common Stock was $58,309,292,659. Although there is no quoted market for our Class B Stock, shares of Class B Stock may be converted at any time into an equal number of shares of Common Stock for the purpose of effecting the sale or other disposition of such shares of Common Stock. The shares of Common Stock and Class B Stock outstanding at June 30, 2021 included shares owned by persons who may be deemed to be “affiliates” of Ford. We do not believe, however, that any such person should be considered to be an affiliate. For information concerning ownership of outstanding Common Stock and Class B Stock, see the Proxy Statement for Ford’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders currently scheduled to be held on May 12, 2022 (our “Proxy Statement”), which is incorporated by reference under various Items of this Report as indicated below.
