The special attrition program offers a choice of several pension and buyout incentives. GM is offering retirement pension incentives of $45,000 for production employees or $62,500 for skilled trades. Eligible employees can select from a variety of ways to receive their incentive:

• One time, lump-sum cash payment
• Direct rollover into their GM 401(k) or into an Individual Retirement Account (IRA)
• Monthly annuity
• Combination of partial lump-sum payment and direct rollover into their GM 401(k) or an IRA

The other retirement and buyout options available are similar to those offered to employees in 2006. These options include:

• Mutually Satisfactory Retirement(MSR) for employees who are at least 50 years old with 10 or more years of service. This option provides a pension payment with full benefits.
• Pre-Retirement Programin which employees with 26, 27, 28 or 29 years of service can grow into a full "30 and out" retirement. Until they reach 30 years of credited service, participating employees would receive a fixed monthly payment with full benefits.
• Cash Buyoutfor employees who agree to voluntarily quit and sever all ties with GM.
  • $140,000 buyout incentive is offered to employees with 10 or more years of credited service or seniority
  • $70,000 buyout incentive to employees with less than 10 years of credited service or seniority

In December 2007, GM and the UAW reached an agreement on what the company was calling the first phase of a comprehensive special attrition program. Details of this program were rolled out to employees at select locations last month. Those employees are now eligible for the enhanced provisions of this new agreement.

"We've worked with our UAW partners to ensure our employees have a variety of attractive options to consider," said Rick Wagoner, GM Chairman and CEO. "The special attrition program is an important initiative that will help us transform the workforce."
