 Re: GMAC Inc.
Deferred Stock Units  
 Dear Tom: 

As a result of a recent determination from the Office of the Special Master for TARP Executive Compensation, effective January 1, 2010 (the
“Investment Date”), a portion of your annualized 2010 cash compensation, $4,437,500, will be deferred and invested in Deferred Stock Units (DSU”s) as described below. 
 This form of compensation remains subject to revision at any time in order to comply with any Federal law or regulation that may govern executive compensation, including but not limited to Title VII of
the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, the Interim final Rules issued pursuant to this law, and the Troubled Asset Relief Program (collectively the “TARP Rules”). Additionally, the components of your total compensation, as
well as the allocation of your total compensation among the various components may be prospectively adjusted at any time at GMAC’s sole discretion. 
 The value a DSU on the Investment Date will be based on the value of a Restricted Stock Unit on the Investment Date (as defined in the Long Term Equity Compensation Incentive Plan or “LTECIP”).
The value at the time of any payment (“Settlement Date”) may differ, depending upon increases or decreases in GMAC’s value, as well as adjustments for recapitalization, merger, etc. as outlined in Section 6.2 of the LTECIP.

 Unless otherwise specified in any plan document, DSUs will not determine any potential severance you may become eligible for. Rather,
severance under any applicable plan will be determined based only upon your direct cash compensation in effect prior to the date of this letter. 
 Subject to requirements of any Federal laws or regulations that may govern executive compensation, including but not limited to the TARP Rules, settlement of your DSUs will be made as follows with each
occurrence constituting a “Settlement Date”: 
  

	 	•	 	 For
 1/5 of each investment, on the first payroll
following a date 12 months from Investment Date 


  

	 	•	 	 For
 1/5 of each investment, on the first payroll
following a date 24 months from Investment Date 


  

	 	•	 	 For
 1/5 of each investment, on the first payroll
following a date 36 months from Investment Date 


  

	 	•	 	 For
 1/5 of each investment, on the first payroll
following a date 48 months from Investment Date 


  

	 	•	 	 For
 1/5 of each investment, on the first payroll
following a date 60 months from Investment Date 


 These payments are not subject to forfeiture and will be made
pursuant to this Settlement schedule, regardless of your employment status. 
 Additionally, to the extent that you received 2009 DSUs, pursuant
to a recent determination from the Office of the Special Master for TARP Executive Compensation, your 2009 DSUs will settle on the same payment schedule as described above for 2010 DSUs. By signing below, you acknowledge and agree to this revised
settlement schedule for any 2009 DSUs.
