ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS
On October 3, 2008, Delphi Corporation (“Delphi” or the “Company”) announced that it filed modifications to its confirmed First Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization and related modifications to its First Amended Disclosure Statement with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Court”). A copy of the press release announcing the proposed modifications is attached as Exhibit 99(a) and incorporated by reference herein.
As detailed in Exhibit 99(a), in order to facilitate its emergence from chapter 11, Delphi anticipates raising approximately $3.75 billion of funded emergence capital through a combination of term debt and rights to purchase equity, comprised of at least $2.75 billion in funded first and second lien debt, plus up to $1.2 billion of unfunded debt through an asset-backed revolving credit facility.
The preliminary modification hearing is scheduled for October 23, 2008 and the final modification hearing is scheduled to commence December 17, 2008.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Current Report on Form 8-K, including the exhibits being furnished as part of this report, as well as other statements made by Delphi may contain forward-looking statements that reflect, when made, the Company’s current views with respect to current events and financial performance. Such forward-looking statements are and will be, as the case may be, subject to many risks, uncertainties and factors relating to the Company’s operations and business environment which may cause the actual results of the Company to be materially different from any future results, express or implied, by such forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “may,” “might,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue,” the negative of these terms and other comparable terminology. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following: the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern; the ability of the Company to operate pursuant to the terms of the debtor-in-possession financing facility and its advance agreement with General Motors Corporation (“GM”), to obtain an extension of term or other amendments as necessary to maintain access to such facility and advance agreement; the Company’s ability to obtain Court approval with respect to motions in the chapter 11 cases prosecuted by it from time to time; the ability of the Company to achieve all of the conditions to the effectiveness of those portions of the Amended and Restated Global Settlement Agreement and Amended and Restated Master Restructuring Agreement with GM which are contingent on Delphi’s emergence from chapter 11; the ability of the Company to obtain Court approval to modify its amended plan of reorganization which was confirmed by the Court on January 25, 2008 as set forth in its filing on October 3, 2008 and to confirm such modified plan or any subsequent modifications to the confirmed plan or any other subsequently confirmed plan of reorganization and to consummate such plan; risks associated with third parties seeking and obtaining Court approval to terminate or shorten the exclusivity period for the Company to propose and confirm one or more plans of reorganization, for the appointment of a chapter 11 trustee or to convert the cases to chapter 7 cases; the ability of the Company to obtain and maintain normal terms with vendors and service providers; the Company’s ability to maintain contracts that are critical to its operations; the potential adverse impact of the chapter 11 cases on the Company’s liquidity or results of operations; the ability of the Company to fund and execute its business plan as described in the proposed modifications to its plan of reorganization as filed with the Court and to do so in a timely manner; the ability of the Company to attract, motivate and/or retain key executives and associates; the ability of the Company to avoid or continue to operate during a strike, or partial work stoppage or slow down by any of its unionized employees or those of its principal customers and the ability of the Company to attract and retain customers. Additional factors that could affect future results are identified in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including the risk factors in Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors, contained therein, and the Company’s quarterly periodic reports for the subsequent periods, including the risk factors in Part II. Item 1A. Risk Factors, contained therein, filed with the SEC. Delphi disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events and/or otherwise. Similarly, these and other factors, including the terms of any reorganization plan ultimately confirmed, can affect the value of the Company’s various prepetition liabilities, common stock and/or other equity securities.
