1. Purpose of Trust and Plan of Liquidation

Purpose of Trust

The Motors Liquidation Company GUC Trust (“GUC Trust”) is a successor to Motors Liquidation Company (formerly known as General Motors Corp.) (“MLC”) within the meaning of Section 1145 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (“Bankruptcy Code”). The GUC Trust holds, administers and directs the distribution of certain assets pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Motors Liquidation Company GUC Trust Agreement (the “GUC Trust Agreement”), dated as of March 30, 2011, and pursuant to the Second Amended Joint Chapter 11 Plan (the “Plan”), dated March 18, 2011, of MLC and its debtor affiliates (collectively, along with MLC, the “Debtors”), for the benefit of holders of allowed general unsecured claims against the Debtors (“Allowed General Unsecured Claims”).

The GUC Trust was formed on March 30, 2011, as a statutory trust under the Delaware Statutory Trust Act, for the purposes of implementing the Plan and distributing the GUC Trust’s distributable assets. The Plan generally provides for the distribution of certain shares of common stock (“New GM Common Stock”) of the new General Motors Corp. (“New GM”) and certain warrants for the purchase of shares of such stock (the “New GM Warrants”, and together with the “New GM Common Stock”, the “New GM Securities”) to holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims pro rata by the amount of such claims. In addition, each holder of an Allowed General Unsecured Claim will retain a contingent right to receive, on a pro rata basis, additional shares of New GM Common Stock and New GM Warrants (if and to the extent such New GM Common Stock and New GM Warrants are not required for the satisfaction of previously Disputed General Unsecured Claims (as defined below)) and cash, if any, remaining at the dissolution of the GUC Trust.

The GUC Trust is administered by Wilmington Trust Company, solely in its capacity as the trust administrator and trustee (the “GUC Trust Administrator”). Among other rights and duties, subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth in the GUC Trust Agreement, the GUC Trust Administrator has the power and authority to hold, manage, sell, invest and distribute the assets comprising the GUC Trust corpus, consult with and retain professionals for the administration of the GUC Trust, prosecute and resolve objections to Disputed General Unsecured Claims, take all necessary actions to administer the wind-down of the affairs of the Debtors upon their dissolution, and upon such dissolution, resolve and satisfy, to the extent allowed, the Residual Wind-Down Claims (as defined below). The activities of the GUC Trust Administrator are overseen by FTI Consulting, Inc., solely in its capacity as monitor (the “GUC Trust Monitor”).

Plan of Liquidation

On March 31, 2011, the date the Plan became effective (the “Effective Date”), there were approximately $29,771 million in Allowed General Unsecured Claims (the “Initial Allowed

 

1


Motors Liquidation Company GUC Trust

Notes to Financial Statements

Unaudited

September 30, 2011

 

General Unsecured Claims”). In addition, as of the Effective Date, there were approximately $8,154 million in disputed general unsecured claims which reflects liquidated disputed claims and a Bankruptcy Court ordered reserve for unliquidated disputed claims (“Disputed General Unsecured Claims”), but does not reflect potential Avoidance Action General Unsecured Claims (as defined below). The total aggregate amount of general unsecured claims, both allowed and disputed, asserted against the Debtors, inclusive of the potential Avoidance Action General Unsecured Claims (as defined below), was approximately $39,425 million as of the Effective Date.

Pursuant to the GUC Trust Agreement, holders of Disputed General Unsecured Claims become entitled to receive a distribution of New GM Securities from the GUC Trust if, and to the extent that, such Disputed General Unsecured Claims become Allowed General Unsecured Claims. The GUC Trust Agreement provides the GUC Trust Administrator with the authority to file objections to such Disputed General Unsecured Claims within 180 days of the Effective Date (which date may be extended by application to the Bankruptcy Court). Such claims may be prosecuted through alternative dispute resolution proceedings, including mediation and arbitration (“ADR Proceedings”), if appropriate. The GUC Trust Administrator and its professionals are currently prosecuting multiple objections to Disputed General Unsecured Claims.

To the extent that all or a portion of a Disputed General Unsecured Claim is deemed invalid – or “disallowed” – by order of the Bankruptcy Court, by order of the tribunal presiding over the ADR Proceeding (if applicable), or by settlement with the GUC Trust, such portion of the Disputed General Unsecured Claim that is disallowed is not entitled to a distribution from the GUC Trust (subject to any appeal rights of the claimant). However, to the extent that a Disputed General Unsecured Claim is fully resolved, and such resolution results in all or a portion of the original Disputed General Unsecured Claim being deemed valid – or “allowed” – by order of the Bankruptcy Court, by order of the tribunal presiding over the ADR Proceeding (if applicable), or by settlement with the GUC Trust, such portion of the Disputed General Unsecured Claim that is allowed will be considered an Allowed General Unsecured Claim and will be entitled to a distribution from the GUC Trust as if it were an Allowed General Unsecured Claim on the Effective Date (such claims, “Resolved Disputed Claims”).

In addition to the Allowed General Unsecured Claims (including Resolved Disputed Claims) and the Disputed General Unsecured Claims, there may be additional general unsecured claims against the Debtors, in a currently unknown amount, which may potentially arise in the event that the Debtors (or an alternative designated plaintiff) commence and are successful in prosecuting legal actions arising under the Bankruptcy Code to compel certain recipients of transfers from the Debtors to disgorge the value of such disputed transfers (such actions, “Avoidance Actions”), and in recovering the proceeds of such legal actions.

Only one Avoidance Action, captioned Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors of Motors Liquidation Co. v. JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. et al., Adv. Pro. No. 09-00504 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. July 31, 2009) (the “Term Loan Avoidance Action”), has been commenced. The Term Loan

Avoidance Action was commenced by the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors of Motors Liquidation Company (the “Committee”), and seeks the return of approximately $1.5 billion that had been transferred by the Debtors (with funds advanced after the commencement of the Debtors’ Chapter 11 cases by the United States Treasury and Export Development Canada (together, the “DIP Lenders”)) to a consortium of prepetition lenders pursuant to the terms of the order of the Bankruptcy Court. To the extent that the Committee is successful in obtaining a judgment against the defendant(s) therein, general unsecured claims will arise in the amount of any transfers actually avoided (that is, disgorged) pursuant to the Term Loan Avoidance Action (such general unsecured claims “Avoidance Action General Unsecured Claims,” and together with Resolved Disputed Claims, the “Resolved Allowed Claims”).

It is not clear, however, whether any amounts actually avoided pursuant to the Term Loan Avoidance Action would flow into the GUC Trust. On June 6, 2011, the Committee commenced a separate adversary complaint seeking a declaratory judgment that (a) the DIP Lenders are not entitled to any proceeds of the Term Loan Avoidance Action and have no interests in the trust established for the action under the Plan (the “Avoidance Action Trust”), and (b) the holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims have the exclusive right to receive any and all proceeds of the Term Loan Avoidance Action, and are the exclusive beneficiaries of the Avoidance Action Trust with respect thereto. This action is still pending.

GUC Trust Distributable Assets

Pursuant to the terms of the Plan, the Bankruptcy Court authorized the distribution of 150 million shares of New GM Common Stock issued by New GM, warrants to acquire 136,363,635 newly issued shares of New GM Stock with an exercise price set at $10.00 per share (“New GM Series A Warrants”), and warrants to acquire 136,363,635 newly issued shares of New GM Stock with an exercise price set at $18.33 per share (“New GM Series B Warrants”). In addition, the agreement governing the sale of substantially all of the assets of the Debtors and related sale documentation together provide that in the event that the Bankruptcy Court enters an order that includes a finding that the estimated aggregate Allowed General Unsecured Claims against the Debtors exceed $35 billion, New GM will be required to issue additional shares of New GM Common Stock for the benefit of the GUC Trust’s beneficiaries (the “Additional Shares”). The number of Additional Shares to be issued will be equal to the number of such shares, rounded up to the next whole share, calculated by multiplying (i) 30 million shares (adjusted to take into account any stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, reorganization or similar transaction with respect to such New GM Common Stock from and after the closing of such sale and before issuance of the Additional Shares) and (ii) a fraction, (A) the numerator of which is the amount by which Allowed General Unsecured Claims exceed $35 billion (such excess amount being capped at $7 billion) and (B) the denominator of which is $7 billion. No Additional Shares have been issued as of September 30, 2011.

Funding for GUC Trust Costs of Liquidation

The GUC Trust has and will have certain costs to liquidate the trust assets and implement the Plan. On or about the Effective Date, pursuant to the Plan, MLC contributed approximately $52.7 million to the GUC Trust to be held and maintained by the GUC Trust Administrator (as the “GUC Trust Administrative Fund”) for the purpose of paying certain expenses incurred by the GUC Trust Administrator (including fees and expenses for professionals retained by the GUC Trust) (“Wind-Down Costs”). Cash or investments from the GUC Trust Administrative Fund, if any, which remain at the winding up and conclusion of the GUC Trust must be returned to the DIP Lenders. If the GUC Trust Administrator determines that the GUC Trust Administrative Fund is not sufficient to satisfy the current or projected costs and expenses of the GUC Trust, the GUC Trust Administrator, with the approval of the GUC Trust Monitor, is authorized to reserve New GM Securities for this purpose. The GUC Trust Administrator may then liquidate such reserved New GM Securities to fund the Wind-Down Costs, in most cases, with the required approval of the Bankruptcy Court. New GM Securities that are reserved or sold in this manner will not be available for distribution to the beneficiaries of GUC Trust Units.

In addition, as permitted by the GUC Trust Agreement, the GUC Trust requested the sale of 87,182 shares of New GM Common Stock and 79,256 warrants of each series of New GM Warrants by MLC in order to provide additional funds for the payment of a portion of expenses related to certain regulatory reporting requirements and actions provided for by the GUC Trust Agreement (“Reporting Costs”), including those directly or indirectly relating to reports to be filed by the GUC Trust with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or otherwise pursuant to applicable rules, regulations and interpretations of the SEC, the application to the Internal Revenue Service for a private letter ruling regarding the tax treatment of the GUC Trust and the holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims in respect to the distribution of New GM Securities, and the Term Loan Avoidance Action. The sale, which occurred May 27, 2011, resulted in cash proceeds of approximately $5.7 million (“Other GUC Trust Administrative Cash”). These funds are currently maintained at MLC. Cash or investments held to fund Reporting Costs, if any, which remain at the termination of the GUC Trust will be distributed to holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims or holders of the GUC Trust Units, as the case may be. If the GUC Trust Administrator determines that the Other GUC Trust Administrative Cash is not sufficient to satisfy the current or projected Reporting Costs of the GUC Trust, the GUC Trust Administrator, with the approval of the GUC Trust Monitor, is authorized to reserve New GM Securities to satisfy such costs. The GUC Trust Administrator may then liquidate such reserved New GM Securities to fund the Reporting Costs, with the approval of the Bankruptcy Court. New GM Securities that are reserved or sold in this manner will not be available for distribution to the beneficiaries of GUC Trust Units.

The GUC Trust has initiated a review of expected costs related to the budgets for Wind-Down Costs and Reporting Costs. In the event that the GUC Trust Administrative Fund and the Other GUC Trust Administrative Cash is not sufficient to cover the expected Wind-Down Costs and Reporting Costs, the GUC Trust Administrator may take steps to reserve New GM Securities for sale to satisfy such costs and the reserves for expected liquidation costs would be increased.

MLC Wind-Down

September 30, 2011

 

Upon the dissolution of the Debtors, which is required to occur no later than December 15, 2011, the GUC Trust will be responsible for resolving and satisfying (to the extent allowed) all remaining disputed administrative expenses, priority tax claims, priority non-tax claims and secured claims (the “Residual Wind-Down Claims”). On the date of dissolution of the Debtors, the Debtors shall transfer to the GUC Trust cash in an amount necessary to satisfy the ultimate allowed amount of such Residual Wind-Down Claims, as estimated by the Debtors (the “Residual Wind-Down Assets”).

Should the cost of satisfying and resolving the Residual Wind-Down Claims (“the Residual Wind-Down Expenses”) and the Residual Wind-Down Claims be less than the Residual Wind-Down Assets, any excess funds will be returned to the DIP Lenders. If at any time the GUC Trust Administrator determines that the Residual Wind-Down Assets are not adequate to satisfy the Residual Wind-Down Expenses, such costs will be satisfied by Other GUC Trust Administrative Cash. If there is no remaining Other GUC Trust Administrative Cash, the GUC Trust Administrator is authorized to, with GUC Trust Monitor approval, reserve and, with Bankruptcy Court approval, sell New GM Securities to cover the shortfall. To the extent that New GM Securities are reserved and sold to obtain funding to complete the wind-down of the Debtors, such securities will not be available for distribution to the beneficiaries of the GUC Trust. Therefore, the amount of Residual Wind-Down Claims and Residual Wind-Down Expenses could reduce the assets of the GUC Trust available for distribution. After the GUC Trust has concluded its affairs, any funds remaining that were obtained from the New GM Securities sold to fund the wind-down process or the resolution and satisfaction of the Residual Wind-Down Claims will be distributed to the beneficiaries of the GUC Trust Units.

 

2. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Liquidation Basis of Accounting

The GUC Trust was created for the purposes described above in Note 1 and has a finite life. As a result, the GUC Trust has prepared the accompanying financial statements on the liquidation basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Under the liquidation basis of accounting, assets are stated at their estimated net realizable value, which is the non-discounted amount of cash or its equivalent, into which an asset is expected to be converted in the due course of business less direct costs, while liabilities are reported at their estimated settlement amount, which is the non-discounted amount of cash, or its equivalent, expected to be paid to liquidate an obligation in the due course of business, including direct costs. Additionally, under the liquidation basis of accounting, a reserve has been established for estimated costs expected to be incurred during the liquidation (exclusive of interest expense). These estimates are periodically reviewed and adjusted as appropriate.

The valuation of assets at net realizable value and liabilities at anticipated settlement amount represent estimates, based on present facts and circumstances, and are subject to change.

Fiscal Year

The GUC Trust’s fiscal year begins on April 1 and ends on the following March 31. The Trust’s second quarter in the fiscal year is from July 1 to September 30. As the GUC Trust was created on March 30, 2011 and the Effective Date of the Plan was March 31, 2011, for financial reporting purposes the GUC Trust is assumed to have been established as of April 1, 2011 and received its initial funding on or about April 1, 2011 which is the beginning of the current six month period ended September 30, 2011 presented in the accompanying financial statements.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2011 consist of amounts held in a money market fund.

Cash Due From MLC

Cash due from MLC consists of the GUC Trust’s interest in a segregated cash account held by MLC which contains funds from the sale of New GM Securities to fund regulatory Reporting Costs.

Securities Due From MLC

Securities due from MLC represents the GUC Trust’s interest in New GM Securities held by MLC for future distribution in respect of Allowed General Unsecured Claims and the GUC Trust Units (as defined below). The securities held by MLC consist of shares of New GM Common Stock and New GM Warrants as further described in Note 1 and Note 5. The GUC Trust has valued its interest in the securities due from MLC at their fair value based on quoted market prices.

Investments in Marketable Securities

Investments in marketable securities consist of investments in corporate and municipal commercial paper and demand notes. The GUC Trust has valued these securities at fair value based on quoted market prices or quoted prices for similar securities in active markets.

Other Assets

Other assets consist principally of prepaid insurance and retainers for professionals.

Reserves for Estimated Costs of Liquidation

Under the liquidation basis of accounting, the GUC Trust is required to estimate and accrue the costs associated with implementing the Plan and distributing the GUC Trust’s distributable assets. These costs, described as Wind-Down Costs and Reporting Costs in Note 1, consist principally of professional fees, costs of governance, and other administrative expenses. These amounts may vary significantly due to, among other things, the time required to complete all

distributions under the Plan. The GUC Trust has recognized reserves for expected liquidation costs that represent estimated costs to be incurred over the remaining liquidation period. As the GUC Trusts incurs such costs, the reserves are released to offset the costs incurred and a liability to the service provider is recognized as an accounts payable or accrued expense until paid.

Accounts Payable & Other Liabilities

Accounts payable and other liabilities represent amounts due to professionals, service providers, and vendors for services rendered or goods received through the end of the period.

Income Taxes

The GUC Trust is considered to be a Disputed Ownership Fund pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.468B-9. Because all of the assets that have or will be transferred to the GUC Trust are passive investments, the GUC Trust will be taxed as a Qualified Settlement Fund (“QSF”) pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.468-9(c)(1)(ii).

In general, a QSF pays Federal income tax using the C corporation income tax rates on its modified gross income. Modified gross income includes gross income pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 61 less administrative expenses, certain losses from the sale, exchange or worthlessness of property, and net operating losses. In general, a Disputed Ownership Fund taxed as a QSF does not recognize gross income on assets transferred to it; therefore, the GUC Trust will not recognize gross income on the transfer of assets from Motors Liquidation Company. The GUC Trust is expected to generate gross income in the form of interest income and possibly gains and/or losses on the ownership of shares of New GM Common Stock and New GM Warrants, which will be reduced by administrative expenses and any accumulated net operating losses, to compute modified gross income.

The QSF tax status of the GUC Trust has been approved by the Internal Revenue Service in a private letter ruling issued on March 2, 2011.

As the GUC Trust is taxable for Federal income tax purposes a current income tax liability is recognized for estimated taxes payable or refundable on tax returns for the year. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between financial reporting and tax accounting. The deferred tax assets are periodically reviewed for recoverability and valuation allowances are provided as necessary.

The GUC Trust may also be subject to state income taxes. State deferred tax liabilities and assets are recorded consistent with the treatment for Federal income tax purposes.

The GUC Trust has a net operating loss for income tax purposes for the three and six months ended September 30, 2011. However, a valuation allowance has been recorded for the related deferred tax asset as the Trust does not believe the tax benefit of the net operating loss is likely to be realizable.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements on a liquidation basis in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities. These estimates are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could materially impact the amounts reported and disclosed in the financial statements and related footnotes. Significant estimates include the anticipated amounts and timing of future cash flows for expected liquidation costs, fair value of investment securities and allowed amounts of general unsecured claims. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Subsequent Events

The accompanying financial statements and related disclosures include evaluation of events up through and including October 31, 2011, which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

 

3. Net Assets in Liquidation

Description

Under the GUC Trust Agreement and the Plan, as described more fully in Note 1, the beneficiaries of the GUC Trust are current and future holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims and GUC Trust Units (as defined below) (“Trust Beneficiaries”). Certain assets of the GUC Trust are reserved for funding the expected costs of liquidation and not available to the Trust Beneficiaries. Other assets of the GUC Trust, primarily securities due from MLC, as described in Notes 1 and 5, are available to be distributed to the Trust Beneficiaries (“GUC Trust Distributable Assets”) in accordance with the Plan. The net assets available in liquidation, presented in the accompanying financial statements, corresponds to the amount of GUC Trust Distributable Assets as of September 30, 2011.

Trust Units

As described in Note 1, each holder of an Allowed General Unsecured Claim will retain a contingent right to receive, on a pro rata basis, additional shares of New GM Common Stock and New GM Warrants (if and to the extent such shares of New GM Common Stock and New GM Warrants are not required for the satisfaction of previously Disputed General Unsecured Claims) and cash, if any, remaining at the dissolution of the GUC Trust. The GUC Trust will issue, by credit on its books and records, units representing such contingent rights (“GUC Trust Units”) at the rate of one GUC Trust Unit per $1,000 of Allowed General Unsecured Claims to each holder of an Allowed General Unsecured Claim, subject to rounding pursuant to the GUC Trust Agreement.

The GUC Trust will make quarterly distributions in respect of the Trust Units to the extent that certain previously Disputed General Unsecured Claims asserted against the estate of MLC are either disallowed or are otherwise resolved favorably to the GUC Trust (thereby reducing the amount of GUC Trust assets reserved for distribution in respect of such asserted claims) and the resulting amount of Excess GUC Trust Distributable Assets (as defined in the Trust Agreement) as of the end of the relevant quarter exceeds thresholds set forth in the Trust Agreement.

On or about July 8, 2011, the GUC Trust issued 29,770,826 GUC Trust Units to holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims as of the Effective Date. In addition, on or about July 28, 2011, in connection with the second quarterly distribution, the GUC Trust issued a further 64,393 GUC Trust Units to new holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims which had been allowed after the Effective Date and on or before the record date for the second quarter distribution. As of September 30, 2011, the record date for the third quarterly distribution by the GUC Trust, the GUC Trust was obligated to distribute New GM Securities and issue 41,349 GUC Trust Units in respect of the Allowed General Unsecured Claims which had been allowed during the quarter ended September 30, 2011.

On or about April 21, 2011 and supplemented by a secondary distribution on May 26, 2011, the GUC Trust made its initial distribution to holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims as of March 31, 2011, distributing an aggregate of 113,194,172 shares of New GM Common Stock

September 30, 2011

 

and 205,807,642 New GM Warrants (102,903,821 of each of the New GM Series A and New GM Series B Warrants).

On or about July 28, 2011 the GUC Trust made its second distribution. The second quarter distribution comprised (i) a distribution of New GM Securities and GUC Trust Units to holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims which had been allowed after the record date for the first quarterly distribution and on or before June 30, 2011, the record date for such second distribution and (ii) a distribution in respect of all outstanding GUC Trust Units. In the second quarterly distribution, the GUC Trust distributed an aggregate of 3,342,580 shares of New GM Common Stock and 6,077,344 New GM Warrants (3,038,672 of each of the New GM Series A and New GM Series B Warrants).

Pursuant to section 5.6 (b) of the Plan, which prohibits the receipt of fractional New GM Securities in respect of Trust Beneficiaries’ GUC Trust Units, on or about August 4, 2011, the GUC Trust sold 245 shares of New GM Common Stock and 518 New GM Warrants (259 of each of the New GM Series A and New GM Series B Warrants) realizing net proceeds of $13,068 for distribution to claimants for fractional shares in respect of their GUC Trust Units.

As of September 30, 2011, the record date for the third quarterly distribution by the GUC Trust, the GUC Trust was obligated to distribute New GM Securities (a) to all holders of newly Allowed General Unsecured Claims (which had become allowed after the record date for the second quarterly distribution and on or before September 30, 2011, the record date for the third quarterly distribution), both in respect of their Allowed General Unsecured Claims and in respect of the prior quarterly distribution on the GUC Trust Units which such holders had not then been allocated, and (b) to all holders of GUC Trust Units, including such newly Allowed General Unsecured Claims, in respect of the third quarterly distribution on such Units. In aggregate for all such distributions, the GUC Trust was obligated at September 30, 2011 to distribute 2,538,108 shares of New GM Stock, 2,307,269 Series A New GM Warrants and 2,307,269 Series B New GM Warrants, and, except as set out below, all of these securities were distributed on or about October 28, 2011:

(a) an aggregate of 59,159 shares of New GM Common Stock, 53,739 New GM Series A Warrants and 53,739 New GM Series B Warrants which were otherwise then distributable to certain holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims were not so distributed because such holders had not then satisfied certain informational requirements necessary to receive these securities, and

(b) an aggregate of 144 shares of New GM Common Stock, 43 New GM Series A Warrants and 43 New GM Series B Warrants that have not been distributed to holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims in respect of certain debt securities previously issued, due to the rounding requirements under the rules and procedures of the various clearing systems in which such debt securities were held.

As of September 30, 2011, the GUC Trust had accrued liquidating distributions payable of $96,372,273 in respect of the securities then distributable pending satisfaction of informational

requirements, the rounding of partial shares due to DTC requirements, and the securities distributed on or about October 28, 2011.

 

5. Securities Due from MLC

Pursuant to the terms of the Plan, MLC currently holds the New GM Securities distributable to holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims. The GUC Trust has the authority to request, and MLC is required to provide, an amount of New GM Securities necessary to make distributions pursuant to the Plan and the GUC Trust Agreement. On or after December 15, 2011, but by no later than December 29, 2011, all remaining undistributed New GM Securities held at MLC are required under the Plan and the GUC Trust Agreement to be transferred from MLC to the GUC Trust (the “GUC Trust Transfer Date”).

At September 30, 2011, the securities due from MLC, at fair value, consisted of the following:

 

     Number      Value
(in thousands)
 

New GM Common Stock

     33,445,711       $ 674,934   

New GM Series A Warrants

     30,405,062         353,915   

New GM Series B Warrants

     30,405,062         241,112   
     

 

 

 

Total

      $ 1,269,962   
     

 

 

 

The number of common stock shares and warrants due from MLC presented above include that number of shares of common stock and warrants which, as of September 30, 2011, were pending distribution to certain holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims who had not at such date satisfied the information requirements necessary to receive such distributions. These pending distributions comprised 59,159 shares of New GM Common Stock, valued at $1,193,828, 53,739 New GM Series A Warrants, valued at $625,523, and 53,739 New GM Series B Warrants, valued at $426,150 as of September 30, 2011. If any such holder of Allowed General Unsecured Claims does not provide such information by the time of the GUC Trust’s termination, the securities to which the holder would have been entitled will instead be available to the remaining holders of GUC Trust Units.

Further, the numbers and values of New GM Securities due from MLC at September 30, 2011 and in the table above include an aggregate of 144 shares of New GM Common Stock, 43 New GM Series A Warrants and 43 New GM Series B Warrants have not been distributed to holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims in respect of certain debt securities previously issued, due to the rounding requirements under the rules and procedures of the various clearing systems in which such debt securities were held. In addition, the numbers and values of New GM Securities due from MLC at September 30, 2011 and set out in the table above include 2,478,805 shares of New GM Common Stock, valued at $50,022,285, 2,253,487 New GM Series A Warrants and

2,253,487 New GM Series B Warrants valued at $26,230,588 and $17,870,152, respectively, which were distributed on or about October 28, 2011. A liquidating distribution payable has been recognized in the accompanying statement of net assets for all distributions pending as of September 30, 2011. See Note 4.

 

6. Fair Value Measurements

Accounting standards require certain assets and liabilities be reported at fair value in the financial statements and provide a framework for establishing that fair value. The framework for determining fair value is based on a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value.

The following table presents information about the GUC Trust’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2011, and the valuation techniques used by the GUC Trust to determine those fair values.

Level 1 – In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs use quoted prices in active markets for identical assets that the Trust has the ability to access.

Level 2 – Fair value determined by Level 2 inputs use other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets, and other inputs such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

Level 3 – Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs, including inputs that are available in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the related asset. These level 3 fair value measurements are based primarily on management’s own estimates using pricing models, discount cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques taking into account the characteristics of the asset. There were no assets or liabilities recorded that are measured with Level 3 inputs at September 30, 2011.

In instances where inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels in the above fair value hierarchy, fair value measurements in their entirety are categorized based on the lowest level input that is significant to the valuation. The GUC Trust’s assessment of the significance of particular inputs to these fair value measurements requires judgment and considers factors specific to each asset.

The GUC Trust also holds other assets and liabilities not measured at fair value on a recurring basis, including accounts payable and other liabilities. The fair value of these liabilities is equal to the carrying amounts in the accompanying financial statements due to the short maturity of such instruments.

The Trust’s policy is to recognize transfers between levels of the fair value of the hierarchy as of the actual date of the event of change in circumstances that caused the transfer. There were no significant transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy during the quarter ended September 30, 2011.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2011 it was determined that the investments in municipal commercial paper and demand notes and corporate commercial paper, which were previously classified as Level 1 assets in the notes to the financial statements dated June 30, 2011, should have been classified as Level 2 assets. Accordingly, these investments have been classified as Level 2 assets based on the fair value hierarchy.

Claims and Distribution Summary    PRIVILEGED & CONFIDENTIAL

 

Notes

 

(1) The Initial Distribution Date took place on or about April 21, 2011 (with a secondary distribution on or about May 26, 2011 to certain holders of allowed claims as of the initial distribution but who did not receive the April 21 distribution). The second quarterly distribution took place on or about July 28, 2011. The next quarterly distribution date is to take place on or as soon as promptly as practicable after October 1, 2011. That distribution will be made based upon the GUC Trust’s books and records as of September 30, 2011, as reflected herein.
(2) Pursuant to the GUC Trust Agreement, each holder of an allowed general unsecured claim is deemed to receive “Units” in the GUC Trust evidenced by appropriate notation on the books and records of the GUC Trust calculated at a ratio of one Unit for each $1,000 in amount of allowed general unsecured claim (such that if all Disputed General Unsecured Claims as of September 30, 2011 are subsequently allowed, the Trust would issue approximately 37.64 million units). Units represent the contingent right to receive, on a pro rata basis as provided in the Plan, Excess GUC Trust Distributable Assets (as described in greater detail in Sections G and H hereof). A copy of the GUC Trust Agreement, as amended, is available at the Motors Liquidation Company GUC Trust website at https://www.mlcguctrust.com/.

Units in respect of general unsecured claims allowed as of the Initial Distribution were not evidenced on the GUC Trust’s books and records until after the Effective Date. Hence, for purposes of this presentation only, Units outstanding as of the Effective Date is deemed to be zero. The 29,835,219 Units outstanding as of September 30, 2011 correlate to the $29,835,202,557 in allowed claims as of June 30, 2011. The Number of Units outstanding as of September 30, 2011 does not directly correspond to allowed claims as of June 30, 2011 on a 1 to 1,000 basis because 16 additional Units were issued due to rounding.

(3) The amounts reported as GUC Trust Distributable Assets are net of liquidating distributions payable as further described in footnotes 4 and 5 of the Notes to the Financial Statements.

The numbers and values reported for GUC Trust Distributable Assets as of June 30, 2011, as stated on this report, have been reduced by 36 shares of New GM Common Stock and 11 New GM Series A Warrants and 11 New GM Series B Warrants to reflect securities that have not been distributed to holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims in respect of certain debt securities previously issued, due to the rounding requirements under the rules and procedures of the various clearing systems in which such debt securities were held.

(4) In section C, the Current Total Amount as of June 30, 2011 reflects an adjustment of $1,303,684 for claims that were reclassified from Allowed General Unsecured Claims to Allowed Administrative Claims. Corresponding adjustments are also reflected in section C in the Maximum Amount of all Disputed General Unsecured Claims and Aggregate Maximum Amount and section E in the Disputed General Unsecured Claims disallowed amount. For Financial Statement purposes this adjustment is disclosed in Note 3 of the Notes to the Financial Statements in the current quarterly financial statements.
(5) On May 24, 2011, the GUC Trust sold 87,182 common shares and 79,256 warrants of each class of warrant related to the Reporting and Transfer Holdback. The sale resulted in cash proceeds of $5,649,328 which, pursuant to the Plan, is being used to fund certain reporting, tax and litigation costs. These funds are currently held by Motors Liquidation Company for the benefit of the GUC Trust. As of September 30, 2011, no additional assets have been identified for holdback.
(6) Distributions to holders of Resolved Allowed General Unsecured Claims include (a) distributions such claimants would have received had their claims been allowed as of the Initial Distribution and (b) to the extent Excess GUC Trust Distributable Assets have previously been made available to Unit holders and/or are being made available at the time of the relevant distribution, additional assets in the form of New GM Securities and/or cash in respect of their being beneficiaries of certain numbers of GUC Trust Units The numbers and values reported for Distributions to holders of Resolved Allowed General Unsecured Claims as of June 30, 2011, as stated on this report, have been increased by 36 shares of New GM Common Stock and 11 New GM Series A Warrants and 11 New GM Series B Warrants to reflect securities that have not been distributed to holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims in respect of certain debt securities previously issued, due to the rounding requirements under the rules and procedures of the various clearing systems in which such debt securities were held.
(7) Pursuant to the Plan, no portion of the initial distribution to claimants was made “in respect of Units”. Only subsequent distributions of Excess GUC Trust Distributable Assets are made “in respect of Units”. As soon as reasonably practicable after October 1, 2011, distributions of the Excess GUC Trust Distributable Assets as of September 30, 2011 (see section H) will be made on account of 29,876,568 Units (i.e., 29,835,219 Units deemed outstanding as of September 30, 2011 plus 41,349 Units subsequently deemed issued in connection with claims resolved between July 1, 2011 and September 30, 2011). A total of 2,306,815 shares of New GM Common Stock and 2,097,105 warrants from each of the series of New GM Warrants shall be distributed in respect of the 29,876,568 Units outstanding.
