Forward-Looking Statements
</pre>
<p>In this press release and in related comments by our management, our use of the words "expect," "anticipate," "possible," "potential," "target," "believe," "commit," "intend," "continue," "may," "would," "could," "should," "project," "projected," "positioned" or similar expressions is intended to identify forward-looking statements that represent our current judgment about possible future events. We believe these judgments are reasonable, but these statements are not guarantees of any events or financial results, and our actual results may differ materially due to a variety of important factors. Among other items, such factors might include: our ability to realize production efficiencies and to achieve reductions in costs as a result of our restructuring initiatives and labor modifications; our ability to maintain quality control over our vehicles and avoid material vehicle recalls; our ability to maintain adequate liquidity and financing sources and an appropriate level of debt, including as required to fund our planning significant investment in new technology; our ability to realize successful vehicle applications of new technology; and our ability to comply with the continuing requirements related to U.S. and other government support.</p>
<p/>
<p>GM's most recent annual report on Form 10-K and quarterly report on Form 10-Q provides information about these and other factors, which we may revise or supplement in future reports to the SEC.</p>

The accompanying tables and charts for securities analysts include
earnings (loss) before interest and taxes (EBIT), adjusted EBIT
and free cash flow which are not prepared in accordance with
Accounting Principles Generally Accepted in the United States of
America (U.S. GAAP) and have not been audited or reviewed by GM's
independent auditors. EBIT, adjusted EBIT and free cash flow
are considered non-GAAP financial measures.
</pre>
<p> </p>
<pre>
Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide
meaningful supplemental information regarding GM's operating
results because they exclude amounts that management does not
consider part of operating results when assessing and measuring
the operational and financial performance of the organization.
Management believes these measures allow it to readily view
operating
trends, perform analytical comparisons, benchmark performance among
geographic regions and assess whether GM's plan to return
to sustained profitability is on target. Accordingly, GM believes
these non-GAAP financial measures are useful in allowing for
greater
transparency of GM's core operations and they are therefore used by
management in its financial and operational decision-making.
</pre>
<p> </p>
<pre>
While management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures
provide useful information, they are not operating measures
under U.S. GAAP and there are limitations associated with their use.
GM's calculation of these non-GAAP financial measures may not
be completely comparable to similarly titled measures of other
companies due to potential differences between companies in the
method of calculation. As a result, the use of these non-GAAP
financial measures has limitations and should not be considered in
isolation from, or as a substitute for, other measures such as Net
income (loss) or Net income (loss) attributable to common
stockholders. Due to these limitations, these non-GAAP financial
measures are used as a supplement to U.S. GAAP measures.
</pre>

The following table summarizes the reconciliation of EBIT to its most
comparable U.S. GAAP measure (dollars in millions):

therefore, there are no reconciling items for GM's operating segments
between EBIT and Net income (loss) attributable to stockholders.
(b) In the three months ended June 30, 2010 we changed our managerial
reporting structure so that certain entities geographically located
within Russia and Uzbekistan were transferred from our GME segment to
our GMIO segment. We have revised the segment presentation for all
