INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

Item 3.  Incorporation of Documents by Reference.

         The SEC allows us to "incorporate by reference" the information that we
file with them, which means that we can disclose important information to you by
referring you to those documents. The information incorporated by reference is
an important part of this registration statement, and information that we file
later with the SEC will automatically update and supersede this information. We
incorporate by reference the documents listed below and any future filings made
with the SEC by us under Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, until we sell all of the securities (other
than filings or portions of filings that are furnished under applicable SEC
rules rather than filed). These documents contain important information about GM
and its finances.

                               PART II (continued)

Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

         The legality of the common stock offered hereby has been passed upon by
Martin I. Darvick, Attorney, Legal Staff of the Corporation. Mr. Darvick owns
shares of common stock and has options to purchase additional shares of common
stock.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

         Under Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, General
Motors is empowered to indemnify its directors and officers as provided therein.

         General Motors' Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, provides that
no director shall be personally liable to General Motors or its stockholders for
monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for
liability (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to General Motors
or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which
involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under
Section 174, or any successor provision thereto, of the Delaware General
Corporation Law, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an
improper personal benefit.

         Under Article V of its Bylaws, General Motors shall indemnify and
advance expenses to every director and officer (and to such person's heirs,
executors, administrators or other legal representatives) in the manner and to
the full extent permitted by applicable law as it presently exists, or may
hereafter be amended, against any and all amounts (including judgments, fines,
payments in settlement, attorneys' fees and other expenses) reasonably incurred
by or on behalf of such person in connection with any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative (a "proceeding"), in which such director or officer was or is made
or is threatened to be made a party or is otherwise involved by reason of the
fact that such person is or was a director or officer of General Motors, or is
or was serving at the request of General Motors as a director, officer,
employee, fiduciary or member of any other corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust, organization or other enterprise. General Motors shall not be
required to indemnify a person in connection with a proceeding initiated by such
person if the proceeding was not authorized by the Board of Directors of General
Motors. General Motors shall pay the expenses of directors and officers incurred
in defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition ("advancement of
expenses"); provided, however, that the payment of expenses incurred by a
director or officer in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding shall
be made only upon receipt of an undertaking by the director or officer to repay
all amounts advanced if it should be ultimately determined that the director or
officer is not entitled to be indemnified under Article V of the Bylaws or
otherwise. If a claim for indemnification or advancement of expenses by a
director or officer under Article V of the Bylaws is not paid in full within 90
days after a written claim therefor has been received by General Motors, the
claimant may file suit to recover the unpaid amount of such claim and, if
successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid the expense of
prosecuting such claim. In any such action, General Motors shall have the burden
of proving that the claimant was not entitled to the requested indemnification
or advancement of expenses under applicable law. The rights conferred on any
person by Article V of the Bylaws shall not be exclusive of any other rights
which such person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, any provision
of the General Motors Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws or of any
agreement, any vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

         General Motors is insured against liabilities which it may incur by
reason of Article V of its Bylaws. In addition, directors and officers are
insured, at General Motors expense, against some liabilities which might arise
out of their employment and not be subject to indemnification under Article V of
the Bylaws.







<PAGE>


                               PART II (continued)

         Pursuant to a resolution adopted by the Board of Directors on December
1, 1975, the Corporation, to the fullest extent permissible under law, will
indemnify, and has purchased insurance on behalf of, directors or officers of
the Corporation, or any of them, who incur or are threatened with personal
liability, including expenses, under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act
of 1974, as amended, or any amendatory or comparable legislation or regulation
thereunder.

Item 8.  Exhibits.

         A list of exhibits filed with this registration statement on Form S-8
is set forth on the Exhibit Index and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 9.  Undertakings.

(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes: (1) to file, during any period
in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this
registration statement to include any material information with respect to the
plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or
any material change to such information in the registration statement; (2) that,
for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933,
each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof; and (3) to remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.

(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Act (and where applicable, each filing of an
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the
registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other
than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director,
officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any
action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling
person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will,
unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

Item 3.  Incorporation of Documents by Reference.

         The SEC allows us to "incorporate by reference" the information that we
file with them, which means that we can disclose important information to you by
referring you to those documents. The information incorporated by reference is
an important part of this registration statement, and information that we file
later with the SEC will automatically update and supersede this information. We
incorporate by reference the documents listed below and any future filings made
with the SEC by us under Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, until we sell all of the securities (other
than filings or portions of filings that are furnished under applicable SEC
rules rather than filed). These documents contain important information about GM
and its finances.

PART II (continued)

Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

         The legality of the common stock offered hereby has been passed upon by
Martin I. Darvick, Attorney, Legal Staff of the Corporation. Mr. Darvick owns
shares of common stock and has options to purchase additional shares of common
stock.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

         Under Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, General
Motors is empowered to indemnify its directors and officers as provided therein.

         General Motors' Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, provides that
no director shall be personally liable to General Motors or its stockholders for
monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for
liability (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to General Motors
or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which
involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under
Section 174, or any successor provision thereto, of the Delaware General
Corporation Law, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an
improper personal benefit.

         Under Article V of its Bylaws, General Motors shall indemnify and
advance expenses to every director and officer (and to such person's heirs,
executors, administrators or other legal representatives) in the manner and to
the full extent permitted by applicable law as it presently exists, or may
hereafter be amended, against any and all amounts (including judgments, fines,
payments in settlement, attorneys' fees and other expenses) reasonably incurred
by or on behalf of such person in connection with any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative (a "proceeding"), in which such director or officer was or is made
or is threatened to be made a party or is otherwise involved by reason of the
fact that such person is or was a director or officer of General Motors, or is
or was serving at the request of General Motors as a director, officer,
employee, fiduciary or member of any other corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust, organization or other enterprise. General Motors shall not be
required to indemnify a person in connection with a proceeding initiated by such
person if the proceeding was not authorized by the Board of Directors of General
Motors. General Motors shall pay the expenses of directors and officers incurred
in defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition ("advancement of
expenses"); provided, however, that the payment of expenses incurred by a
director or officer in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding shall
be made only upon receipt of an undertaking by the director or officer to repay
all amounts advanced if it should be ultimately determined that the director or
officer is not entitled to be indemnified under Article V of the Bylaws or
otherwise. If a claim for indemnification or advancement of expenses by a
director or officer under Article V of the Bylaws is not paid in full within 90
days after a written claim therefor has been received by General Motors, the
claimant may file suit to recover the unpaid amount of such claim and, if
successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid the expense of
prosecuting such claim. In any such action, General Motors shall have the burden
of proving that the claimant was not entitled to the requested indemnification
or advancement of expenses under applicable law. The rights conferred on any
person by Article V of the Bylaws shall not be exclusive of any other rights
which such person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, any provision
of the General Motors Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws or of any
agreement, any vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

         General Motors is insured against liabilities which it may incur by
reason of Article V of its Bylaws. In addition, directors and officers are
insured, at General Motors expense, against some liabilities which might arise
out of their employment and not be subject to indemnification under Article V of
the Bylaws.
PART II (continued)

         Pursuant to a resolution adopted by the Board of Directors on December
1, 1975, the Corporation, to the fullest extent permissible under law, will
indemnify, and has purchased insurance on behalf of, directors or officers of
the Corporation, or any of them, who incur or are threatened with personal
liability, including expenses, under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act
of 1974, as amended, or any amendatory or comparable legislation or regulation
thereunder.

Item 8.  Exhibits.

         A list of exhibits filed with this registration statement on Form S-8
is set forth on the Exhibit Index and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 9.  Undertakings.

(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes: (1) to file, during any period
in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this
registration statement to include any material information with respect to the
plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or
any material change to such information in the registration statement; (2) that,
for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933,
each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof; and (3) to remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.

(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Act (and where applicable, each filing of an
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the
registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other
than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director,
officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any
action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling
person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will,
unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
