Cautionary Statements Regarding Financial and Other Data
Upon the closing of the sale of substantially all of the Company’s assets to General Motors Company pursuant to Section 363(b) of the United States Bankruptcy Code on July 10, 2009, the Company ceased to have material operations. It is the Company’s strong belief that there will be no value at all for common stockholders in the bankruptcy liquidation process, even under the most optimistic of scenarios.
The Company cautions investors and potential investors not to place undue reliance upon the information contained in the Report, which was not prepared for the purpose of providing the basis for an investment decision relating to any of the securities of the Company. The Report has been prepared solely for the purpose of complying with Rule 2015.3 of the Bankruptcy Rules. The Report is limited in scope and only covers a limited time period.
The financial statements in the Report were not audited or reviewed by independent accountants and were not prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The Report presents condensed financial information of the Debtors.
There can be no assurance that, from the perspective of an investor or potential investor in the Company’s securities, the Report is complete. The Report may be subject to future adjustment and reconciliation. The Report also contains information for periods which are shorter or otherwise different from those required in the Company’s reports pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and such information might not be indicative of the Company’s financial condition or operating results for the period that would be reflected in the Company’s financial statements or in its reports pursuant to the Exchange Act. The information set forth in the Report should not be viewed as indicative of future results.
The Company’s informational filings with the Court, including the Report and additional information about the Debtors’ filing under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code, are available to the public at the office of the Clerk of the Bankruptcy Court, Alexander Hamilton Custom House, One Bowling Green, New York, New York 10004-1408.
