ARTICLE II

COMMITMENTS REGARDING OPEB AND PENSION OBLIGATIONS

          Section 2.01 The Labor MOUs. To help facilitate the Debtors' business, financial and operational restructuring, the Parties have resolved certain matters concerning Delphi's OPEB and pension obligations by entering into the Labor MOUs and Non-Represented Employees Term Sheet, all of which are incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth herein. This summary of the terms of the Labor MOUs is qualified entirely by, and is subject to, the actual terms and conditions of the Labor MOUs. Nothing in Article II or III hereof is intended to limit, amend, modify, or supersede any term or condition in any of the Labor MOUs. The Labor MOUs provide, among other things, for:

               (a) the freezing in certain respects of the Delphi HRP;

               (b) Delphi's cessation of hourly OPEB;

               (c) the extension of the period of time on or before which GM's obligations under the GM-UAW Benefit Guarantee and GM � USW Benefit Guarantee may be triggered;

               (d) the extension of the period of time on or before which certain of Delphi's obligations under the GM-Delphi Indemnification Agreement as to the UAW may be triggered;

               (e) the consensual triggering of the Benefit Guarantees and GM provision of OPEB to certain Delphi employees and retirees in a manner which relieves Delphi's provision of OPEB;

               (f) the transfer of certain assets and liabilities from the Delphi HRP to the GM HRP pursuant to section 414(l) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") and Section 208 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"); and

               (g) GM provision of OPEB as referenced in the UAW SAP, the IUE-CWA SAP, the Non-Represented Term Sheet, and the special attrition programs negotiated with each union as part of the Labor MOUs.

          The Parties will negotiate as soon as practicable with the respective Unions for modifications or amendments or agreements or consents regarding implementation of the Benefit

GSA-18


 

Guarantee Term Sheets so that such agreements are consistent with and conform to the intent and purpose of this Agreement. Subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date, it is further understood that to the extent such agreements are not reached with all of the respective Unions, the 414(l) transfer, the freeze of the Delphi HRP, and the cessation of OPEB provided for herein shall be implemented to the fullest extent possible only with respect to those Unions with whom the Parties have reached such agreements (whether before or after the Effective Date), which agreements shall include contemporaneous effectiveness of releases on behalf of the GM-Related Parties and Delphi-Related Parties as contained in the respective Benefit Guarantee Term Sheets.

          At any time on and after the earlier of (i) October 15, 2011, (ii) the date on which the Bankruptcy Court enters an order converting the Delphi Corporation chapter 11 case into a case under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code, and (iii) the date on which the Bankruptcy Court enters an order dismissing the Delphi Corporation chapter 11 case, and solely with respect to any respective Union that has not delivered to Delphi and GM the agreement contemplated under Section 2.01 hereof that explicitly and unconditionally authorizes the occurrence of the 414(l) transfer (including the First Net Liability Transfer), the freeze of the Delphi HRP, the cessation of OPEB and the contemporaneous effectiveness of releases on behalf of the GM-Related Parties and Delphi-Related Parties as contained in the respective Benefit Guarantee Term Sheets, Delphi shall take reasonable best efforts to effect the cessation of OPEB and the freeze of the Delphi HRP as to such Union; it being understood that Delphi shall not be obliged to pay any money to any third party in exchange for such cessation or freeze.

          Section 2.02 Certain Payments Between GM and Delphi Relating To Hourly Employee Benefits.

               (a) Cessation of Delphi OPEB. Subject to the applicable Labor MOUs, Delphi shall amend the Delphi Health Care Program for Hourly Employees and the Delphi Life and Disability Benefits Program for Hourly Employees so as to cease to provide, offer, or have any liability for OPEB as of the earliest date(s), if any, agreed upon by each of the respective Union(s) (the "Cessation Date(s)"). The parties understand that the Cessation Date(s) may vary among each of the respective unions according to each respective union's agreement and with respect to corresponding groups of Delphi retirees. In this regard, GM shall provide OPEB following each Cessation Date only to the extent as set forth in the respective Labor MOUs. GM shall use its best efforts to begin to administer OPEB on or before the 90th day after the applicable Cessation Date(s) or as soon as practicable thereafter.

               (b) GM Reimbursement for Delphi OPEB Costs. Notwithstanding any Labor MOU, on the Effective Date, GM shall assume financial responsibility to Delphi for all Delphi OPEB liability from and after the Effective Date, in order to put Delphi in the same financial position it would be in if the Cessation Date had occurred and Delphi had been relieved of any liability relating to OPEB as set forth in the section 2.02(a) of this Agreement. In order to implement and satisfy GM's assumption of financial responsibility for Delphi OPEB pursuant to the preceding sentence (and GM's agreement to reimburse Delphi for certain OPEB costs for the period commencing on January 1, 2007), GM shall reimburse Delphi's aggregate cash spending for all actual, documented amounts paid by Delphi to provide OPEB to hourly retirees under the Delphi Health Care Program for Hourly Employees and the Delphi Life and Disability Benefits Program for Hourly Employees as specified in section 2.02(b)(ii)(1 through 3) and 2.02(d),

GSA-19


 

reduced by the amounts set forth in section 2.02(b)(ii)(4 and 5) ("OPEB Reimbursement Amount") for the period commencing on January 1, 2007 and continuing through the earlier of the date when GM begins to administer OPEB following an applicable Cessation Date or Delphi's cessation of OPEB pursuant to section 2.01 hereof (the "Reimbursement Period"). The Parties understand that, because the Cessation Date(s) may vary among each of the respective Unions according to each respective Union's agreement and with respect to corresponding groups of Delphi retirees, the Reimbursement Period may also vary among each of the respective Unions. As a result, GM shall reimburse the OPEB Reimbursement Amount for each such Reimbursement Period as follows:

                    (i) Reimbursement Process.

                         (1) For the period January 1, 2007 through June 30, 2008, GM will reimburse Delphi for all properly invoiced and documented OPEB Reimbursement Amounts, reduced by an estimate of applicable credits under section 2.02(b)(ii)(4 and 5), on the later of the Effective Date and the date which is two (2) business days after Delphi has provided written notice to GM of the date on which the Effective Date will occur.

                         (2) For the period July 1, 2008 through the Effective Date, GM and Delphi will meet and confer within five business days of the Effective Date to establish a reasonable estimate of the OPEB Reimbursement Amount for such period, including an estimate of applicable credits under section 2.02(b)(ii)(4 and 5). Within five business days of establishing the estimate, or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, GM will reimburse Delphi 90 percent of such estimated amount. Within 30 days of the Effective Date, Delphi will submit to GM all of the documentation referenced in section 2.02(c)(i) through 2.02(c)(vi) hereof supporting Delphi's actual cost for such amounts along with a representation from Delphi that such documentation is substantially complete and substantially accurate in all respects. Within 30 days of its receipt of this documentation from Delphi, and subject to section 2.02(b)(ii)(4 and 5), GM will reimburse the shortfall between the 90 percent reimbursed estimate and Delphi's actual OPEB Reimbursement Amount for this period. In the event the 90 percent reimbursement based on the estimated amount is greater than the final determination of Delphi's OPEB Reimbursement Amount for this period, Delphi shall reimburse to GM the amount of the overpayment or GM, in its discretion, may take such overpayment as an offset or credit for amounts payable under section 2.02(b)(i)(3 or 4).

                         (3) For the period from the Effective Date through the earlier of the date when GM begins to administer OPEB following an applicable Cessation Date or Delphi's cessation of OPEB pursuant to section 2.01 hereof, GM and Delphi will meet and confer within five business days of the Effective Date to establish a reasonable monthly estimate of the OPEB Reimbursement Amount, calculated separately for hourly retirees on a union-by-union basis for each month during such period, including an estimate of applicable credits under section 2.02(b)(ii)(4 and 5). Within five business days of the first day of each month thereafter, GM will pay Delphi 90 percent of such estimated monthly amount, continuing on a month-to-month basis through the applicable Reimbursement Period. Such estimated monthly amount shall be reduced by the pro-rata amount attributable to each union for which a Cessation Date occurs within such month and for each month following such Cessation Date. Within 30 days after the last day of each month, or at such time as soon thereafter as documentation is available,

GSA-20


 

Delphi will submit to GM all of the documentation referenced in section 2.02(c)(i) through 2.02(c)(vi) hereof supporting Delphi's actual cost for such amounts along with a representation from Delphi that such documentation is substantially complete and substantially accurate in all respects. Within 30 days of its receipt of this documentation from Delphi, and subject to section 2.02(b)(ii)(4 and 5), GM will reimburse the shortfall between the 90 percent reimbursed estimate and Delphi's actual monthly OPEB Reimbursement Amount. In the event the 90 percent reimbursement based on the estimated amount is greater than Delphi's actual monthly OPEB Reimbursement Amount, Delphi shall reimburse to GM the amount of the overpayment or GM, in its discretion, may take such overpayment as an offset or credit for any subsequent monthly amounts payable under this section 2.02(b)(i)(3) or any subsequent payments pursuant to section 2.02(b)(i)(4).

                         (4) In addition, with respect to the actual self-insured Medical Claims described in section 2.02(b)(ii)(1), GM also will reimburse Delphi for claims incurred within the Reimbursement Period that are paid by Delphi during the six month period following the Reimbursement Period within 30 days of GM's receipt from Delphi all of the documentation referenced in section 2.02(c)(i) through 2.02(c)(vi) hereof supporting Delphi's actual cost for such amounts along with a representation from Delphi that such documentation is substantially complete and substantially accurate in all respects and subject to section 2.02(b)(ii)(4 and 5) and GM's right to apply any overpayment remaining from previously made estimated payments as an offset or credit to payments under this section 2.02(b)(i)(4).

                    (ii) OPEB Reimbursement Amount Calculation. The OPEB Reimbursement Amount will be calculated in accordance with the following:

                         (1) The actual self-insured Medical Claims (HSM, Durable Medical Equipment, Mental Health, Substance Abuse, Prescription Drug, Dental and Vision) for hourly retirees incurred in the Reimbursement Period and paid by Delphi within six months of the end of the applicable Reimbursement Period; plus the estimated additional claims costs completion value (the "Completion Costs") for incurred but not paid claims for hourly retirees as calculated by Watson Wyatt and agreed to by GM (the "Medical Claims Reimbursement Amount"). No additional reimbursement shall be provided for the value of any medical claims costs associated with payment run-out not comprehended by the six-month period and Completion Costs.

                         (2) The actual paid HMO and DHMO premiums for hourly retirees (the "Actual HMO and DHMO Premiums") for the Reimbursement Period.

                         (3) Actual administration fees paid to Delphi Health Care Program for Hourly Employees carriers (the "Carrier Administrative Fees") based only on Delphi hourly retired contract counts for the Reimbursement Period; provided, however, that for carriers whom Delphi does not pay on a per contract basis, the Carrier Administrative Fees shall be determined by taking Delphi's total administrative fees paid to such carrier during the Reimbursement Period, dividing that amount by the total population of Delphi participants serviced by the carrier during the Reimbursement Period, and then multiplying the quotient by the total number of retirees for whose OPEB GM is obligated to reimburse Delphi during the Reimbursement Period.

GSA-21


 

                         (4) Allocated actual Prescription Drug Pharmacy Benefit Manager ("PBM") rebates (the "Actual Prescription Drug PBM Rebate Amount") received by Delphi from its PBM for the value of Delphi hourly retiree Prescription Drug claims for the Reimbursement Period. The Actual Prescription Drug PBM Rebate Amount shall consist of the amount of total PBM rebates attributable to hourly retirees received by Delphi for claims incurred during the Reimbursement Period. The Actual Prescription Drug PBM Rebate Amount shall be a credit against GM's payment of the Medical Claims Reimbursement Amount. If the Actual Prescription Drug PBM Rebate Amount is not available at the time a payment of the Medical Claims Reimbursement Amount is due under section 2.02(b)(i), GM's payment to Delphi of the Medical Claims Reimbursement Amount shall be reduced by the estimate of the Actual Prescription Drug PBM Rebate Amount, which shall be reconciled upon receipt of any remaining documentation under section 2.02(c)(iv) and (c)(v) hereof.

                         (5) Actual Medicare Part D subsidy receipts related to Prescription Drug claims for Delphi hourly retirees incurred during the Reimbursement Period (the "Medicare Part D Subsidy Receipts"). The Medicare Part D Subsidy Receipts shall be a credit against GM's payment of the Medical Claims Reimbursement Amount. If the Medicare Part D Subsidy Receipts amount is not available at the time a payment of the Medical Claims Reimbursement Amount is due under section 2.02(b)(i), GM's payment to Delphi of the payment of the Medical Claims Reimbursement Amount shall be reduced by the estimate of the Medicare Part D subsidy, which shall be reconciled upon receipt of any remaining documentation under section 2.02(c)(iv) and (c)(v) hereof.

                         (6) Within 180 days after the end of the Reimbursement Period, Delphi shall advise GM of any open credits, uncollected receivables, potential litigation settlements or other recoverable amounts directly associated with or allocable to Delphi hourly retirees for Medical Claims incurred in the applicable Reimbursement Period. At that time, GM and Delphi shall establish a mutually agreed upon process to ensure GM is reimbursed these recoverable amounts within thirty (30) days of Delphi's receipt of such recoveries. GM shall only be reimbursed for credits, uncollected receivables, potential litigation settlements, or other recoverable amounts to the extent GM paid Delphi for the initial claim; provided, however, that where such amounts are not tied to specific claims, the reimbursement amount shall be determined as follows: (x) for carriers and service providers that only provide services relating to Delphi's hourly plan, the reimbursement amount shall be determined by taking the amount of the credits, uncollected receivables, potential litigation settlements, and other recoverable amounts, dividing that amount by the total population of Delphi hourly participants, and then multiplying the quotient by the total number of Delphi's hourly retirees, and (y) for carriers and service providers which provide services for both the Delphi and salaried plans, the reimbursement amount shall be determined by taking the amount of the credits, uncollected receivables, potential litigation settlements, and other recoverable amounts, dividing that amount by the total population of Delphi participants, and then multiplying the quotient by the total number of Delphi's hourly retirees.

                         (7) Escheatment responsibility for self-insured carriers' uncashed checks, including those payments reimbursed by GM pursuant to section 2.02(b) hereof, remain with Delphi or its carriers. GM does not assume any responsibility for escheatments related to the Delphi Health Care Program for Hourly Employees.

GSA-22


 

                          (8) Any hourly retiree claims appeals associated with Medical Claims or HMO and DHMO premiums incurred in the Reimbursement Period and any retroactive adjustments related to section 2.02(b)(ii)(2) and (b)(ii)(4) hereof not comprehended in the original billing documentation shall be aggregated and addressed once per year following the final reimbursement payment.

               (c) Health Care Information Sharing. GM shall execute the PHI Protection Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B. Subject to GM's execution of the PHI Protection Agreement, Delphi shall provide (to the extent available) GM with the eligibility records, self-insured Medical Claims, and insured health care arrangements for Delphi retirees for health care coverage provided by Delphi during the Reimbursement Period. The following documentation (to the extent available), including social security numbers and all identifying information, shall be made readily available to GM to document Delphi's costs for the Delphi retirees, surviving spouses and dependents:

               (i) To document all incurred and paid self-insured Medical Claims (the Medical Claims Reimbursement Amount), Delphi shall provide to GM, as of the Cessation Date and monthly thereafter for a period of six months, full electronic claims and eligibility records, as available, transferred from Delphi's data warehouse to GM's similar data warehouse. Delphi shall also provide to GM claims data, in a mutually agreeable format, to document self-insured dental and vision coverages;

               (ii) To document Actual HMO and DHMO Premiums, Delphi shall provide to GM, as of the Cessation Date, a data file listing all of the Delphi retirees enrolled for coverage under these insured arrangements along with the plan name, family status, and total individual monthly premium paid;

               (iii) To document Carrier Administrative Fees, Delphi shall provide GM mutually agreed upon eligibility records supporting hourly retiree contract counts and appropriate Carrier agreement schedules that document per contract administrative fees;

               (iv) To document the Actual Prescription Drug PBM Rebate Amount, Delphi shall provide PBM, banking, or other cash disbursement records to substantiate the amount of total PBM rebates received by Delphi for claims incurred during the Reimbursement Period and the amount of total Delphi prescription drug claims incurred during the Reimbursement Period;

               (v) To document final Medicare Part D Subsidy Receipts, Delphi shall provide a data file, in a mutually agreeable format, of complete claim levels Medicare Part D subsidy reimbursement records and rebate factors applied; and

               (vi) Delphi shall also provide the most recent documentation and audit papers relative to claims or eligibility records along with

GSA-23


 

supporting documentation on collection of overpayments incurred but not fully collected during the Reimbursement Period;

               (vii) GM recognizes that some of the information that Delphi will provide pursuant to this section 2.02 is proprietary to Delphi and its carriers and administrators. GM agrees that such information, which Delphi identifies in writing as being proprietary, including but not limited to rebate amounts, carrier administrative fees, and HMO/DHMO premium rates, shall not be disclosed to third parties (other than GM's employees, agents, and advisors) except to the extent required by law, or to the extent such information otherwise becomes publicly available.

               (d) Post-Retirement Basic Life Insurance Reimbursement. GM agrees that reimbursement payments for employer-paid, post-retirement life insurance premiums and administration of employer-paid, post-retirement life insurance incurred during the Reimbursement Period and paid by Delphi shall be made in accordance with the Reimbursement Process specified in section 2.02(b)(i).

               (i) Until Covered Employees can be enrolled in the GM Life and Disability Benefits Program and the systems that support that program, Delphi shall maintain administration of the hourly employer-paid, post-retirement life insurance benefits for employees through the current administrator (MetLife). Delphi and its current administrator shall assist GM in the transition of records to the GM life insurance administrator to be completed by March 1, 2009 or such other date as may be required in accordance with the applicable Labor MOUs.

               (ii) Delphi shall immediately direct and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its life insurance carrier (MetLife) to transfer to GM current reserves as of January 1, 2007, associated with Delphi hourly employer-paid, post-retirement life insurance.

               (iii) Delphi shall immediately direct and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its Optional Life, Dependent Life and Personal Accident Insurance Plan carrier (MetLife) to transfer the Delphi Rate Reduction Reserves for the Optional Life, Dependent Life and Personal Accident Insurance Plans to GM. The amount that will be transferred for each plan shall be calculated by MetLife using the methodology agreed upon for flowbacks and check the box retirees. Upon the transfer, GM shall assume any and all obligations from Delphi to provide the benefits relating to the Delphi Rate Reduction Reserves for the Optional Life, Dependent Life and Personal Accident Insurance Plans transferred.

               (e) Delphi Payments for Benefit Avoidance.

               (i) Consistent with the applicable Benefit Guarantee Term Sheet, neither Delphi, a successor company, nor any Delphi operation divested after October 8, 2005 shall provide to Covered Employees any payments, contributions (matching or otherwise), or accruals to any defined benefit plan, defined contribution plan, or retiree welfare benefit plan (including, but not limited to payments, contributions, or accruals in a retiree medical account):

GSA-24

                    (i) To document the Non-Represented and Splinter EPBO Payment, GM shall provide Delphi within ninety (90) days of the Effective Date a calculation by GM's actuaries (Watson Wyatt and MetLife). The EPBO shall be valued at the GM's IUE plan value, as measured in GM's first OPEB valuation on or after the Effective Date.

                    (ii) The Non-Represented and Splinter EPBO Payment shall be the sum of the following:

                         (1) 100% of the EPBO assumed by GM as of or prior to the Effective Date for active and retired non-represented hourly employees, eligible to receive OPEB from GM (the "Non-Represented EPBO");

                         (2) 100% of the EPBO assumed by GM as of the Effective Date for active Splinter Union Employees (the "Active Splinter EPBO"); and

GSA-27


 

                         (3) 50% of the EPBO assumed by GM as of or prior to the Effective Date for retired Splinter Union Employees eligible to receive OPEB from GM (the "Retired Splinter EPBO").

               (g) Cessation of Delphi OPEB True-up Obligations. Delphi has no obligation to make any OPEB true-up payments for or in relation to hourly employees at business units divested from Delphi prior to May 28, 1999 or Delphi-to-GM flowback employees regardless of when such flowback occurred or occurs.

               (h) Audit Rights. GM and its representatives at GM's expense shall have the right to audit all information used to derive any calculation or payment amount referenced in this section 2.02; provided, however, that (1) GM shall provide reasonable advance written notice of such audit and (2) such audit shall be conducted during normal business hours to the extent feasible without unreasonably interfering with Delphi's normal operations. Delphi's service providers, subject to and consistent with the applicable service provider contract, shall fully cooperate with any such audit. Each Party's actuaries shall have the right to review the actuarial calculations, including underlying actuarial assumptions, for payments referenced in this section 2.02. Delphi and GM shall comply with reasonable requests from the other company's principal outside corporate auditors regarding this section 2.02.

               (i) Information List. Delphi shall provide to GM within ten (10) business days after the Effective Date an initial list of the following information as of the Effective Date for all Delphi active (with a seniority date on or before May 28, 1999) and retired hourly employees: social security number, name, birth date, credited service, wage rate, union affiliation, and active or retired status, and whether Delphi has them designated as a Covered Employee who can attain eligibility for GM-provided or GM-funded OPEB through any means (other than becoming employed by GM pursuant to the SEPO attachment to the IUE-CWA MOU or becoming a flowback pursuant to the UAW CBA). The final determination of who is such a Covered Employee shall be made by GM. The list shall also include the applicable information for eligible surviving spouses of such Covered Employees. Three months after the date the initial list is provided, Delphi shall provide a final list with the information requested.

               (j) Offset. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any payment by GM or Delphi of any invoiced amount pursuant to this section 2.02 shall be subject to the right of GM or Delphi, as applicable, to offset all or part of such payment as provided in section 7.04 hereof.

          Section 2.03 Treatment of Delphi's Pension Plans. To help facilitate the Debtors' business and financial restructuring, the Parties have resolved certain matters concerning Delphi's pension obligations by entering into the Labor MOUs, all of which are incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth herein. The Parties agree to the following actions with respect to Delphi's pension plans:

               (a) Pension Freeze. Delphi shall amend the Delphi HRP as set forth in each of the Labor MOUs so as to freeze benefit accruals for future service as of September 29, 2008 or the earliest date thereafter as permitted by law and the applicable Labor MOUs (and such date, as determined and applied separately for each Labor MOU, is hereinafter referred to

GSA-28


 

the "Freeze Date"); provided, however, that the Individual Retirement Plan provisions of the Delphi HRP and the continuation of credited service for the Delphi employees participating in Delphi PRP of the SAPs are not required to be frozen.

               (b) GM Reimbursement for Certain Delphi Contributions.

                    (i) Subject to section 2.03(b)(iii) below, GM shall reimburse Delphi for contributions actually made on or before each Freeze Date by Delphi to the Delphi HRP in respect of the "Normal Cost" of credited service accrued between January 1, 2007 and the earlier of such Freeze Date or Delphi's freeze of the Delphi HRP pursuant to section 2.01 hereof in the Delphi HRP by participants whose accrued benefits (and allocable assets and liabilities) were transferred or intended to be transferred to the Delphi HRP in the spin-off of the Delphi HRP from the GM HRP in 1999 (after taking into consideration all subsequent true-up transfers) and attributable to the participants to which such Freeze Date applies. Such reimbursement payments shall be made by GM to Delphi (i) in the case of such contributions that were made prior to the Effective Date, within thirty (30) days following GM's receipt of the agreed-upon calculation from Watson Wyatt of the "Normal Cost" (as defined in section 2.03(b)(iv) below) and (ii) in the case of such contributions that are made after the Effective Date, within thirty (30) days after each quarterly or minimum contribution due date by which Delphi has made such contributions, provided Delphi has delivered to GM the agreed-upon calculation from Watson Wyatt of the "Normal Cost" (as defined in section 2.03(b)(iv) below) on or before such quarterly or minimum contribution due date. GM shall not be obligated to reimburse Delphi for any contributions arising for any period of credited service earned by any current or former Delphi employee after the applicable Freeze Date.

                    (ii) If the Second Net Liability Transfer occurs and subject to section 2.03(b)(iii) below, GM shall reimburse Delphi, without duplication, for any contributions required to be made by Delphi to the Delphi HRP in full or partial satisfaction of the minimum statutory funding requirements for the period October 1, 2008 through the Second Transfer Date and actually made by Delphi during such period to the Delphi HRP and associated with the liabilities transferred from the Delphi HRP to the GM HRP pursuant to the Second Net Liability Transfer. Such reimbursement shall be made by GM after the Second Transfer Date and within thirty (30) days after receipt by GM of the agreed-upon calculation from Watson Wyatt of the aforesaid amounts required to be and actually contributed by Delphi to the Delphi HRP. GM shall not be obligated to reimburse Delphi for any contributions arising for any period of credited service earned after the Second Transfer Date by any current or former Delphi employee. In the event that the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") determines subsequent to the Second Transfer Date that Delphi is required to make an additional contribution to the Delphi HRP in respect of transferred benefit liabilities in the Second Net Liability Transfer, then GM shall reimburse Delphi the amount of such contribution and Delphi shall cause a transfer of such amount from the Delphi HRP to the GM HRP as an additional part of the Second Net Liability Transfer. Such reimbursement by GM shall be made as to

GSA-29


 

permit Delphi to make such contribution on a timely basis (and not later than the applicable due date).

                    (iii) GM shall not be obligated to reimburse Delphi pursuant to Sections 2.03(b)(i) or (ii) above with respect to contributions attributable to (a) employees participating in the 2006 UAW or IUE-CWA Special Attrition Programs and, for employees participating in the pre-retirement program option in the 2007 UAW, IUE-CWA, or USWA Special Attrition Program � Transformation, other than contributions actually made by Delphi to the Delphi HRP in respect of the Normal Cost of credited service accrued following the commencement of the pre-retirement program period in accordance with the SAPs, and (b) credited service pursuant to Individual Retirement Plan provisions of the Delphi HRP; except to the extent that any such contributions are included in Transferred Asset Amount associated with the Second Transfer Date.

                    (iv) "Normal Cost" shall be defined as the current liability normal cost (as defined under ERISA calculated at the highest allowable interest rate) incurred from time to time by Delphi to the Delphi HRP for credited service earned by such individuals in the specified time period less the normal cost that would have been incurred with respect to such individuals during this time period had the Delphi HRP been frozen as of January 1, 2007. For purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, "current liability normal cost" shall be replaced with "target liability normal cost" as defined in the Pension Protection Act ("PPA") based on the relevant elections made by Delphi with respect to service credited on or after October 1, 2008. The reimbursement payment amount pursuant to sections 2.03(b)(i) or (ii) hereof shall be calculated by Watson Wyatt acting on behalf of Delphi and confirmed by Watson Wyatt acting on behalf of GM.

               (c) Transfer of Certain Pension-Related Assets and Liabilities.

                    (i) Delphi and GM shall cause separate transfers of pension assets and liabilities from the Delphi HRP to the GM HRP as set forth herein. The transfers shall have no effect on the amount of accrued pension benefits for employees who either remain in the Delphi HRP or are transferred to the GM HRP. Such transfers shall be in the amounts set forth in section 2.03(c)(iii) hereof and shall be conducted in accordance with Section 414(l) of the Code and Section 208 of ERISA.

                    (ii) IRS Ruling. The transfer shall be subject to the IRS ruling issued to Delphi and GM on May 29, 2007 related to the transfer (the "IRS Ruling"), as applicable.

                    (iii) Mechanics.

                         (1) For purposes of this Agreement, the "Transfer Date" shall mean each separate effective date of each 414(l) transfer, and the First Net Liability Transfer and the Second Net Liability Transfer shall be separate 414(l)

GSA-30


 

transfers. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Net Liability Transfer" is defined as the FAS-87 Projected Benefit Obligation (the "PBO") transferred from the Delphi HRP as of the applicable Transfer Date, based on GM's assumptions and methods as of December 31, 2007 for annual pension expense purposes of the GM HRP and including the discount rate of the GM HRP as of the last day of the month the transfer takes place (the "Gross Liability"), less the market value of corresponding assets calculated pursuant to Section 414(l) of the Code and the IRS Ruling, as it relates to the Delphi HRP transfer, using assumptions and methods agreed to with the IRS and agreed upon by GM and Delphi actuaries, that are transferred to the GM HRP as of the Transfer Date (the "Transferred Asset Amount"). The Net Liability Transfer shall be determined separately with respect to each 414(l) transfer.

                         (2) With respect to the First Net Liability Transfer and the Second Net Liability Transfer separately, Delphi shall make the transfer of the applicable Transferred Asset Amount in two tranches. The first tranche shall be completed within 10 days of the applicable Transfer Date, or such later date as agreed to by GM and Delphi (the "First Tranche Date"). The second tranche shall be completed within six months of the applicable First Tranche Date, or such later date as agreed to by GM and Delphi (the "Second Tranche Date").

                              (A) With the first tranche, 90% (or such lesser percentage as agreed to by Delphi and GM) of the applicable Transferred Asset Amount shall be transferred from the Delphi HRP to the GM HRP based on the most recent valuation work by Delphi's actuaries, Watson Wyatt, projected to the applicable Transfer Date (the "Preliminary Transferred Asset Amount"). The Delphi HRP shall make all benefit payments in respect of the applicable Gross Liability being transferred after the applicable Transfer Date and through the end of the sixth month beginning after the applicable Transfer Date or, if not administratively practicable, such other date as may be agreed by Delphi and GM ("Benefit Transition Period"). In the event these benefit payments exceed the remainder of the applicable Transferred Asset Amount, the GM HRP shall reimburse the Delphi HRP for such excess amount of benefit payments with applicable interest at the FAS-87 discount rate for the GM HRP used to calculate the applicable Net Liability Transfer. The GM HRP shall make all benefit payments attributable to the transferred Gross Liability after the applicable Benefit Transition Period.

                              (B) The second tranche shall consist of the remaining plan assets (the "True-up Amount") necessary to be transferred so that 100% of the applicable Transferred Asset Amount is transferred. The True-Up Amount shall equal the amount of the 414(l) assets based on actual data as of the applicable Transfer Date less the Preliminary Transferred Asset Amount and benefit payments by the Delphi HRP after the applicable Transfer Date in respect of the corresponding Gross Liability being transferred. The assets transferred on the First or Second Tranche Date shall be adjusted to reflect the Delphi HRP's actual rate of return on assets for the time period between the applicable Transfer Date and the date the assets are actually transferred to the GM HRP.

GSA-31


 

                         (3) Additional terms of the Net Liability Transfers, including the determination of the participants for whom benefit liabilities and corresponding assets shall be included in the transfer, shall be as set forth in the applicable Labor MOUs.

                         (4) The First Net Liability Transfer will occur no later than September 29, 2008 (the "First Transfer Date"). The First Net Liability Transfer from the Delphi HRP to the GM HRP shall be equal to an amount necessary to avoid any accumulated funding deficiency for the Delphi HRP for the plan year ended September 30, 2008 calculated as of the First Transfer Date, but in no event in an amount less than $2.1 billion or more than $2.4 billion (the "First Net Liability Transfer").

                         (5) The Second Net Liability Transfer will occur upon the GSA Consummation Date (the "Second Transfer Date"). The Second Net Liability Transfer from the Delphi HRP to the GM HRP shall include all allocable assets and liabilities, under the Delphi HRP for participants whose accrued benefits (and allocable assets and liabilities) were transferred or intended to be transferred to the Delphi HRP in the spin-off of the Delphi HRP from the GM HRP in 1999 (after taking into consideration all subsequent true-up transfers) calculated as of the Second Transfer Date (the "Second Net Liability Transfer").

                    (iv) Delphi Obligation for Delphi Active PRP Participants. For active Delphi PRP participants included in the Delphi HRP transfer on the First Transfer Date or Second Transfer Date, GM shall assume the responsibility for providing future service for this population under the GM HRP subject to Delphi providing GM with compensation equal to the value of this additional obligation ("Incremental PRP Obligation") through a direct cash payment on the applicable Transfer Date and in accordance with the applicable Labor MOU. The Incremental PRP Obligation shall equal the difference between:

                         (1) The present value of benefits ("PVB") for Delphi PRP participants assuming the full Delphi HRP basic benefit and early retirement supplement (and related benefits) payable at thirty (30) years of credited service shall be earned; and

                         (2) The PBO for Delphi PRP participants including the portion of the Delphi HRP basic benefit and early retirement supplement (and related benefits) earned based on credited service on the Transfer Date. For this purpose, the early retirement supplement shall be deemed "earned" pro rata over thirty (30) years of service, even though a participant who terminates before thirty (30) years of service generally is not entitled to a supplement.

                         (3) The PBO and PVB referenced in this section 2.03(c)(iv) shall be calculated based on GM's assumptions and methods as of the latest measurement date for pension expense purposes of the GM HRP and

GSA-32


 

the discount rate as of the last day of the month in which the Transfer Date takes place.

                    (v) Description of Delphi Pension Trust. Assets of the Delphi HRP are held in a master pension trust (the "Delphi Pension Trust") and the assets of the GM HRP are also held in a pension trust (the "GM Pension Trust"). The Delphi Pension Trust and the GM Pension Trust have assets invested in the same commingled trusts and other investment vehicles. The assets involve a combination of privately held and publicly held securities and other investment forms. The determination of which Delphi HRP assets are ultimately transferred on the First and Second Transfer Dates, with GMIMCo's assistance, shall be mutually agreed by Delphi and GM. The determination shall be in accordance with the 414(l) asset allocation of the Delphi HRP participant liabilities to be transferred. Assets shall be transferred in-kind in a trust-to-trust transfer.

               (d) Rights to Review Calculations. Each Party's actuaries shall have the right to review the actuarial calculations, including underlying actuarial assumptions, for payments referenced in this section 2.03. Delphi and GM shall comply with reasonable requests from the other company's principal outside corporate auditors regarding this section 2.03.

               (e) Information List. Delphi shall provide to GM within ten (10) business days after the Effective Date an initial list of the following information as of the Effective Date for all Delphi active (with a seniority date on or before May 28, 1999) and retired hourly employees: social security number, name, birth date, credited service, wage rate, union affiliation, and active or retired status, and whether Delphi has them designated as a Covered Employee. The final determination of who is a Covered Employee shall be made by GM. The list shall also include information regarding surviving spouses of potential Covered Employees who may have a pension benefit under the Retirement Equity Act of 1984. Three months after the initial list is provided, Delphi shall provide a final list with the information requested.

               (f) Offset. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any payment by GM or Delphi of any invoiced amount pursuant to this section 2.03 shall be subject to the right of GM or Delphi, as applicable and to the extent permitted by and in compliance with applicable law, to offset all or part of such payment as provided in section 7.04 hereof.

execution of this Agreement), shall become effective upon the occurrence of all of the following events unless waived by consent of the Parties:

               (a) The Bankruptcy Court shall have entered by September 29, 2008 an order, in form and substance substantially similar to the form of order attached hereto as Exhibit D, approving this Agreement, and such order shall not have been stayed, reversed, or modified by the time this Agreement would otherwise have gone effective; and

               (b) The delivery to each of Delphi and GM on or prior to 3:00 p.m. EDT on September 28, 2008 of effective modifications or amendments or agreements or consents, in writing and in forms reasonably acceptable to Delphi and GM, from enough Unions to complete the First Net Liability Transfer; provided, however, that no delivery by a Union to GM or Delphi hereunder shall be effective unless such agreement explicitly and unconditionally authorizes the occurrence of the 414(l) transfer as set forth herein, the freeze of the Delphi HRP, the cessation of OPEB and the contemporaneous effectiveness of releases on behalf of the GM-Related Parties and Delphi-Related Parties as contained in the respective Benefit Guarantee Term Sheets;

provided, however, that no statute, rule or regulation or order, judgment or decree of any court or administrative agency or other governmental entity shall be in effect which prohibits the consummation of one or more of the transactions to be consummated under this Agreement, unless such transaction is severed pursuant to section 7.21 hereof; provided further, however, that the substantial majority of all assets, whether real or personal, used to produce any products pursuant to GM Purchase Orders shall be owned or leased by DAS (other than tooling owned by GM) and all obligations pursuant to the GM Purchase Orders shall be the responsibility of DAS. GM irrevocably consents to the performance of the GM Purchase Orders by DAS and any Delphi-Related Party that is directly or indirectly wholly-owned by Delphi, as directed by DAS; provided, however, that any change of the location of production shall require GM's prior written consent. Regardless of whether the transaction is severed, each of the Parties shall use reasonable efforts to prevent the entry of, and to appeal promptly, any injunction or other order prohibiting one or more of the transactions to be consummated under this Agreement.

ARTICLE VII

MISCELLANEOUS

          Section 7.01 Resolution of Pending Setoff Issues. On the MNS-2 payment date immediately following the Effective Date, GM shall pay to Delphi the aggregate amount of all outstanding Delphi invoices related to tooling procured by Delphi in accordance with GM Purchase Orders, for which GM has withheld payment due to outstanding prepetition amounts due to Delphi's sub-suppliers, including the invoices set forth on Exhibit C to this Agreement, provided that Delphi (i) confirms, in writing, GM's ownership of the applicable tooling free and clear of liens, claims and encumbrances, and (ii) agrees to indemnify and hold GM harmless from and against any liens, claims and encumbrances with respect to the applicable tooling.

          Section 7.02 No Undisclosed Agreements or Commitments. There are no undisclosed agreements or commitments between or among the Parties regarding matters subject to the terms of this Agreement.

          Section 7.03 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated and the transactions contemplated hereby may be abandoned as follows:

               (a) by mutual written consent of both Delphi and GM; or

               (b) by either GM or Delphi if the Effective Date has not occurred by September 29, 2008.

          Section 7.04 No Offset. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Parties' payment obligations under this Agreement are absolute and unconditional and will not be subject to any offset (except as expressly set forth in (i) the proviso below or (ii) the Liquidity Support Agreement) or defense of any nature whatsoever including upon a breach by Delphi or any of its Affiliates or GM or any of its Affiliates, as applicable, of any of their obligations under this Agreement or any other agreement; provided, however, that any payments by GM pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to GM's right to offset all or part of such payment from any future amounts GM owes Delphi under this Agreement only if (i) agreed upon by GM and Delphi or (ii) GM determines that it made an overpayment of any amount paid pursuant to this Agreement and GM and Delphi are unable to resolve GM's claim for such amounts pursuant to the applicable dispute resolution provisions of this Agreement and GM provides Delphi with five (5) days' written notice before implementing such offset; provided further, however, that if it is judicially determined that GM did not have the right to offset such amount, GM shall pay Delphi such amount plus interest accruing on such amount from the date of setoff through the repayment date at the rate of 7.5% per annum. Neither this section 7.04 nor any other provision of this Agreement shall prohibit, restrict, or limit in any way the application of GM's contractual rights of setoff arising under any GM Purchase Order pursuant to GM's standard purchase order terms and conditions against other obligations arising under any GM Purchase Orders or agreements other than this Agreement.

          Section 7.05 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Venue. This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, the forum

GSA-50


 

state in which the Bankruptcy Court sits, without regard to any conflict of law provision that could require the application of the law of any other jurisdiction. By its execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that the Bankruptcy Court shall retain exclusive jurisdiction over all matters related to the construction, interpretation or enforcement of this Agreement; provided, however, that the Bankruptcy Court shall not have jurisdiction over (i) disputes arising out of the provisions set forth in Article III of the Restructuring Agreement or the agreements referenced in sections 5.01(c) and (d) of the Restructuring Agreement, or (ii) disputes arising out of agreements between any Delphi-Affiliate Party on the one hand and GM or any of its Affiliates on the other in which disputes no Delphi-Related Party has an interest; and provided further that after the second anniversary of the Effective Date, the Bankruptcy Court shall retain non-exclusive jurisdiction over all matters related to the construction, interpretation or enforcement of this Agreement; and provided further that the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court over all matters related to this Agreement shall terminate upon the fourth anniversary of the Effective Date. Each Party further agrees to waive any objection based on forum non conveniens.

          Section 7.06 Dispute Resolution. In the event a Settlement Dispute arises among the Parties, upon the written request of either Party, such Settlement Dispute shall be referred to the Director of Business Development at GM and the Finance Director of Automotive Holdings Group or the Director, Strategic Planning at Delphi (at Delphi's discretion) for resolution in good faith. In the event that GM's Director of Business Development and Delphi's Finance Director of Automotive Holdings Group or the Director, Strategic Planning are unable to resolve such dispute, such Settlement Dispute shall be referred, at either Party's written request, to the Assistant Treasurer of GM and the Assistant Treasurer or Treasurer of Delphi (at Delphi's discretion). If within ten (10) days after such referral, GM's Assistant Treasurer and Delphi's Assistant Treasurer or Treasurer are unable to resolve the Settlement Dispute, the Settlement Dispute may be elevated by either Party to GM's Treasurer or Chief Financial Officer (at GM's discretion) and Delphi's Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer (at Delphi's discretion) for resolution. To the extent that the job title of any of the foregoing positions is changed, this section 7.06 shall be deemed to apply to such successor title or, if the position is eliminated or vacated, to the job title of the party taking over the responsibility of the eliminated or vacated position.

          Section 7.07 Joint Communication Program. Delphi and GM shall work together to develop and implement a joint communication plan with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.

          Section 7.08 No Solicitation. Each Party acknowledges that this Agreement is not and shall not be deemed to be a solicitation to accept or reject a plan in contravention of Bankruptcy Code section 1125(b). Each Party further acknowledges that no securities of any Debtor are being offered or sold pursuant to this Agreement and that this Agreement does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities of any Debtor.

          Section 7.09 Negotiations Not Admissible. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 408 and any applicable state rules of evidence, this Agreement and all negotiations relating thereto are not admissible into evidence in any proceeding; provided, however, that this Agreement may be admissible in a proceeding to enforce the terms of this Agreement.

          Section 7.10 Specific Performance. Each Party acknowledges that the other Party would be irreparably damaged if this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached.

          Section 7.11 Representations and Warranties of the Debtors and GM.

               (d) The execution, delivery, and performance by it (when such performance is due) of this Agreement do not and shall not (i) violate any current provision of law, rule, or regulation applicable to it or any of its subsidiaries or its certificate of incorporation or bylaws or other organizational documents or those of any of its subsidiaries or (ii) conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute (with due notice or lapse of time or both) a default under any material contractual obligation to which it or any of its subsidiaries is a party.

          Section 7.12 Waiver; Modification; Amendment. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, this Agreement may not be modified, waived, amended or supplemented unless such modification, waiver, amendment or supplement is in writing and has been signed by each Party. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or constitute a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, whether or not similar, nor shall any waiver be deemed a continuing waiver.

          Section 7.13 Binding Effect; Assignments. This Agreement is intended to bind and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors, assigns, administrators, and representatives.
