(1) This statement is being filed by The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. ("GS Group") and Goldman, Sachs & Co. ("Goldman Sachs", and, together with GS Group, the "Reporting Persons"). Goldman Sachs is a wholly-owned subsidiary of GS Group.
(2) In connection with its bankruptcy proceedings under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, Delphi Corporation (the "Company") entered into an Equity Purchase and Commitment Agreement, dated January 18, 2007 (the "Equity Purchase and Commitment Agreement"), providing for the sale of common and preferred equity interests of the reorganized Company to a group of initial investors named therein (the "Investors"). On the terms and subject to the conditions of the Equity Purchase and Commitment Agreement, each Investor, among other things, will purchase shares (the "Direct Subscription Shares") of the Company's common stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Common Stock") and will purchase any unsubscribed shares of Common Stock from a rights offering to be conducted by the Company ("Unsubscribed Shares").
(3) On March 8, 2007, Goldman Sachs entered into an Additional Investor Agreement, dated March 5, 2007 (the "Additional Investor Agreement"), with the Investors and certain additional investors, pursuant to the Equity Purchase and Commitment Agreement. On the terms and subject to the conditions of the Additional Investor Agreement, Goldman Sachs has agreed, to the extent the Investors purchase Direct Subscription Shares or Unsubscribed Shares pursuant to the Equity Purchase and Commitment Agreement, to purchase up to an aggregate of 6,428,570 Direct Subscription Shares and Unsubscribed Shares at the purchase price set forth in the Additional Investor Agreement.
(4) As a result of the arrangements in the Additional Investor Agreement, the Reporting Persons may be deemed a member of a "group" for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, with the Investors and other parties to the Additional Investor Agreement. The Reporting Persons expressly disclaim membership in a group with the Investors or any other person. This Form 3 shall not be deemed an admission that any Reporting Person is a beneficial owner of any shares of Common Stock for any purpose, other than the securities reported on Table I of this Form 3. Each of the Reporting Persons disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities reported on Table I except to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein. This Form 3 does not reflect any shares of Common Stock that are owned by the Investors or any other party to the Additional Investor Agreement.
(5) The securities reported on Table I may be deemed to be beneficially owned indirectly by GS Group by reason of the direct ownership of such securities by Goldman Sachs or another direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of GS Group.
