	Settlement Conditions and Settlement Date(s):
	The RSU Award will be fully vested and non-forfeitable on December 31, 2010.  The value of the Shares of GM Common Stock equal to the number of units to be settled will be delivered in cash on the latter of the following Settlement Dates and no longer a Top 25 employee:

XXXX share value to be delivered March 15, 2014
XXXX share value to be delivered March 15, 2015

	Form of Payment
	Despite the terms of the Plan, if you remain working in the current location at the time of settlement, RSUs issued to you will only be settled by payment to you of the Fair Market Value of a Share, in cash.  No RSUs which are issued to you will be settled by the issue of any Shares, unless your work location changes to a jurisdiction that permits settlement in shares.  Section 6(e) of the Plan is modified accordingly.

	Termination of Employment
	100% of RSUs to be settled on the Settlement Date(s) noted above.

	Important Information about TARP
	This Award is subject to the requirements of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, and regulations issued by the U.S. Department of the Treasury thereunder.  These requirements are known as “TARP” and are interpreted by the Office of the Special Master for TARP Executive Compensation.  The Company has the right to change this Award, or interpret its provisions, so as to make it comply with TARP and rulings by the Special Master thereunder.  In general, TARP applies specific requirements to Awards granted to or held by the 100 most highly compensated employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and more stringent requirements apply to Awards granted to or held by the 25 most highly compensated employees.  The determinations of these groups are made annually.

	Certain Defined Terms
	Certain terms used in this Award Agreement are defined in the Plan document.  Some of these definitions are summarized below.

Additional Terms
The following additional terms apply to the Award to you, your participation in the Plan and the grant of RSUs (and any cash or Shares) to you.  By accepting the Grant you irrevocably agree and acknowledge in favor of GM (on its own behalf and as agent for its Subsidiaries) that:
		
	1.
	to enable GM to issue you RSUs, and administer the Plan and any Award, you consent to the exchange and disclosure of your personal information, including transmission of that information from your country of employment, residence or citizenship, to other countries;

		
	2.
	the Plan is established voluntarily by GM, it is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, suspended or terminated by GM at any time, as provided in the Plan;

		
	3.
	the Award and your participation in the Plan is not offered in lieu of, or in substitution for, any payment of remuneration, severance payments, leave entitlements, or any other compensation payable to you; 

		
	4.
	participation in the Plan is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to future participation in the Plan, Awards or benefits in lieu of participation in the Plan, even if Awards are offered repeatedly;

		
	5.
	Awards under, and your participation in, the Plan do not form part of your remuneration for the purposes of determining payments in lieu of notice of termination of your employment of office, severance payments, leave entitlements, or any other compensation payable to you.  No Award, payment, or other right or benefit, under the Plan will be taken into account in determining any benefits under any pension, retirement, savings, profit-sharing, group insurance, welfare or benefit plan of GM or any of its Subsidiaries;

		
	6.
	GM and its Subsidiaries, their respective affiliates, officers and employees make no representation concerning the financial benefit or taxation consequences of any Award or participation in the Plan.  You are strongly advised to seek your own professional legal and taxation advice concerning the impact of the Plan and your Award;

	8.
	you will have no entitlement to compensation or damages as a result of any loss or diminution in value of Shares, RSUs or any other rights acquired pursuant to the Plan, including, without limitation, as a result of the termination of your employment by GM or any of its Subsidiaries for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of contract;
