     On November 20, 2000, General Motors Corporation's (GM) subsidiary,  Hughes
Electronics Corporation (Hughes), issued the following in a Form 8-K:

ITEM 9.  REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE

Introduction

     On  October  23,  2000,  new  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission  rules,
collectively  referred to as "Regulation FD," became  effective.  General Motors
and Hughes believe that Regulation FD requires us, among other things, and under
certain circumstances, to have procedures reasonably designed to assure that, if
some  GM  stockholders  learn  information  about  us and  our  company  that is
material,  other GM stockholders  will learn that information at or close to the
same  time.  GM and  Hughes  each  file  this  procedural  8-K to  alert  all GM
stockholders to the disclosure  practices we will try to follow, with respect to
Hughes and the GMH stock.

Our website

     Hughes  maintains a corporate  website at  www.hughes.com,  on which Hughes
posts  significant  corporate  information  from time to time.  In addition,  GM
maintains a website at  www.gm.com,  on which it posts  significant  information
about Hughes from time to time,  either in full text or by a clearly  identified
hyperlink to the Hughes website. Unless the context otherwise indicates, when we
refer to "our  website," we refer to both the Hughes website and the GM website,
including,  but not  limited to,  those  portions  that relate to Hughes.  While
significant  information  concerning  Hughes  and  the  GMH  stock  will be made
available to the public by various means, including by filing Current Reports on
Form 8-K, in addition to posting information on our website, we encourage you to
review our website to access all such information.

     We will  maintain  several  discrete  information  sections  on the  Hughes
website.  One of these on the investor relations page of the Hughes website will
be headed "Financial Guidance /Recent Presentations."

     Posting  information  on  the  "Financial  Guidance/Recent   Presentations"
section of the Hughes  website is not  intended  to, and does not,  constitute a
determination by us that the information is in fact material. Materiality can be
a complex concept, and some information may be posted on the Hughes website that
may not be "material," out of an abundance of caution to ensure  compliance with
applicable  law.  The fact that  information  is posted on this  section  of the
Hughes website does not indicate a  determination  by us that  dissemination  of
that information is legally required.

     From time to time, and during "quiet  periods," which are discussed  below,
certain  information   originally  posted  to  the  "Financial   Guidance/Recent
Presentations"  section of the Hughes  website will be moved to another  section
that  will be  headed  "Archived  Guidance."  Information  will be  moved to the
"Archived  Guidance"  section  for  historical   reference  purposes  only,  and
thereafter  will not be  maintained  or  updated  for  accuracy.  Hughes  and GM
expressly disclaim any obligation to update archived information, and readers of
the archived  information should not assume the information is current. In order
to access the "Archived  Guidance" section, a viewer will be required to "click"
through an  acknowledgement  that archived  information may no longer be current
and accurate.





                                      - 2 -
Forecasts

     Hughes may post forecasts (in the form of ranges of projected financial and
operating  results with respect to specific  items or in the form of directional
commentary),   as  well  as  other  forward  looking  data,  in  the  "Financial
Guidance/Recent  Presentations"  section of the Hughes website. When posted, the
forecasts will represent Hughes'  management's  current estimates as of the date
of posting,  which will be clearly  indicated.  If a forecast  is  updated,  the
updated portions will be clearly  identified.  In order to keep posted forecasts
as current as  practicable,  Hughes intends to update any posted  forecasts once
Hughes has determined, in accordance with Hughes' internal procedures,  that the
posted forecasts no longer represent Hughes  management's  current estimates for
the  periods  covered.  Neither GM nor Hughes  assumes any legal  obligation  to
update the information on our website. Hughes' forecasts will constitute forward
looking  statements  and will always be subject to various risk factors that may
cause actual results to differ  materially from the forecasts  Hughes  provides.
These risk  factors  are  identified  in our Form  10-K's,  Form 10-Q's and Form
8-K's, all of which are available on our website.

     In order to access the "Financial Guidance/Recent Presentations" section of
the  Hughes   website,   viewers   will  be  required  to  "click"   through  an
acknowledgement  that  the  viewer  has  read,  and  understands,  a  cautionary
statement setting forth the risks and  uncertainties  related to forward looking
statements,  including forecasts, posted on the Hughes website. Forecasts may be
posted,  and updated,  on the Hughes website by various means and neither Hughes
nor GM assume  any  obligation  to use a  particular  means to post,  or update,
forecasts on any particular occasion.  Means of posting may include webcasts and
recordings  of webcasts,  presentations,  press  releases and copies of excerpts
from our SEC Filings.  The means used to post or update  forecasts may vary from
time to time and we may update  forecasts  by means  other than those  initially
used to post such forecasts.

Analyst Meetings, Conference Calls and Discussions with Analysts and
Institutional Investors, Quarterly Earnings Presentations

     Hughes will  endeavor to  simultaneously  webcast  all  quarterly  earnings
conference  calls with analysts,  and may also webcast other analyst or investor
conferences   that  Hughes  may  present  or  host,  when  Hughes  considers  it
appropriate.  Hughes  intends  to  post  recordings  of  these  webcasts  in the
"Financial  Guidance/Recent  Presentations" section of the Hughes website and to
maintain access to such recordings for a reasonable period after the event. When
Hughes representatives take part in analyst or investor conferences sponsored by
third parties that are webcast,  Hughes will endeavor to provide instructions on
how to access  webcasts of the  conference.  Hughes will endeavor to post in the
"Financial Guidance/Recent Presentations" section any written presentations used
by Hughes representatives in connection with quarterly earnings calls or analyst
or investor conferences.

     On occasion,  officials at our company  will respond to  communications  or
inquiries concerning Hughes from individual analysts, or specific  institutional
investors. If these conversations should occur, they are not intended to divulge
material nonpublic  information about Hughes, and we will take appropriate steps
to  avoid  such  disclosures  from  occurring.  If  Hughes  becomes  aware  that
information  which might be  material  may have been  unintentionally  disclosed
during one of these informal encounters,  Hughes will, when appropriate,  post a
brief  summary of the  information  that has been  disclosed  in the  "Financial
Guidance/Recent  Presentations"  section of the Hughes website. While Hughes may
identify  the  generic  classification

                                     - 3 -

applicable to the recipient of this information (for example, "analyst," or
"institutional  investor"),  Hughes  does not intend to  identify  the  specific
person  with whom these  conversations  may have  taken  place.  The  posting of
information  in  accordance  with these  procedures is not intended to, and does
not, constitute a determination by Hughes that the information is material.

Quiet Periods

     During certain times, referred to as quiet periods, any forecast or similar
forward  looking  information in the "Financial  Guidance/Recent  Presentations"
section of the Hughes website will be moved to the "Archived  Guidance"  section
of the Hughes  website and may no longer be relied upon as current.  Hughes will
post a prominent  notice on the Hughes website stating that a quiet period is in
effect and you should no longer  rely upon the  previously  posted  forecast  as
representing  Hughes' management's current estimates with respect to the subject
matter of such  forecast.  Quiet  periods  will  include  the three week  period
immediately preceding the scheduled earnings release for each fiscal quarter and
other periods as may be determined by Hughes' management from time to time.

E-mail and blast fax alerts

     You will be able to  register on the Hughes  website to receive  alerts via
e-mail or blast faxes of upcoming  analyst and  investor  conferences,  earnings
releases,  significant changes to the "Financial Guidance/Recent  Presentations"
section of the Hughes website and other pertinent information.

     We  do  not  assume   responsibility  for  any  problems  relating  to  the
transmission  of e-mail or blast  fax  alerts,  including  but not  limited  to,
problems  relating to server  disruptions and incorrect  e-mail addresses or fax
numbers.  While we will endeavor to notify you when significant changes are made
to the Hughes  website,  we do not assume any  obligation  to  provide,  and you
should not expect to  receive,  a notice each time the  forecasts  posted on the
Hughes website are updated.

Further Information

     Regulation FD is new. Its meaning and impact are not yet certain. We intend
to monitor these policies and practices to see whether they are fulfilling their
intended  purpose.  We encourage our  shareholders to communicate with us if you
have suggestions or comments regarding these procedures. Please address any such
communications to:
