GM Statement on Delphi Court Motions

     General Motors Corp.  (NYSE: GM) today said it is disappointed  with Delphi
Corp.'s  (DPHIQ)  decision to seek authority to reject certain supply  contracts
with GM but it remains  committed to working with Delphi and its unions to reach
a consensual agreement.

     "We disagree with Delphi's approach but we anticipated that this step might
be taken," said Rick  Wagoner,  GM chairman  and chief  executive  officer.  "GM
expects  Delphi to honor its public  commitments  to avoid any  disruption to GM
operations. "

     Delphi's  motion for authority to reject  certain GM supply  contracts,  as
well as the company's motion to reject its labor  contracts,  is consistent with
past practices of other suppliers in Chapter 11.

     "Motions to reject labor  agreements  are fairly  common in  reorganization
proceedings  and we have seen this  approach play out to agreed  resolutions  in
other cases,"  Wagoner said.  "GM will continue to work with Delphi,  its unions
and the  court to  achieve  a  consensual  agreement  that  makes  sense  and is
financially  viable for all of the  parties.  We believe the  special  attrition
program we agreed to with the UAW and  Delphi  last week is  indicative  of GM's
commitment to reaching such an agreement."

     GM's objective in the Delphi  reorganization  remains to ensure that Delphi
can continue as a viable  important  supplier to GM on terms that make sense for
both GM and its stockholders.
