EXPLANATORY NOTES
Delphi
Corporation (Delphi or the Company) is filing
this Form 8-K/A as Amendment No. 1 (the Form 8-K) to its
Current Report on Form 8-K that was filed with the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission on July 15, 2008 (the
Original Form 8-K) solely for the purpose of
correcting a typographical error in Item 8.01 Other Events of
the Original Form 8-K. Specifically, the waivers expired in May
2008 as opposed to May 2007. The corrected Form 8-K
incorporating Item 8.01 Other Items from the Original
Form 8-K is set forth below.
On July 14 and 15, 2008, Delphi contributed a total of $435,063 to its
United States (U.S.) subsidiary pension plans. These defined benefit pension plans are sponsored
by Delphi and certain of its U.S. subsidiaries, all of which (collectively, the Debtors) filed
for court-supervised restructuring under chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (Chapter 11).
During 2007, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) granted conditional waivers regarding the funding
of the Delphi Hourly-Rate Employees Pension Plan (the Hourly Plan) and the Delphi Retirement
Program for Salaried Employees (the Salaried Plan) for the plan years ended September 30, 2006
and 2007 as further described in Note 2. Transformation Plan and Chapter 11 Bankruptcy in the
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 filed with the SEC. Pursuant to
the pertinent terms of the waivers, Delphi provided to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation
(PBGC) letters of credit in favor of the Hourly and Salaried Plans in the amount of $122.5
million to support funding obligations under the Hourly Plan and $50 million to support funding
obligations under the Salaried Plan. In May 2008, the waivers expired and the PBGC drew against the
$172.5 million of letters of credit in favor of the Hourly and Salaried Plans. The cash proceeds
from the letters of credit have been designated as Delphi employer contributions to the plans for
the plan year ending September 30, 2008. The contributions of July 14 and 15, 2008 represent the
portion of the pension contribution attributable to services rendered by employees of the Debtors
in the second quarter of 2008. For the Hourly and Salaried Plans, approximately $17.6 million and
$28.4 million, respectively, of the proceeds from the letters of credit were applied to this July
15, 2008 quarterly contribution. Under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act and the U.S.
Internal Revenue Code, a minimum funding payment of approximately $333 million to the U.S. pension
plans was due on July 15, 2008. As permitted under Chapter 11, however, Delphi contributed only the
portion of the contribution attributable to post-bankruptcy-petition service using cash and a
portion of the proceeds from the letters of credit. The unpaid portion of the minimum funding
payments remains payable as a claim against Delphi and will be determined in Delphis plan of
reorganization with other claims. Delphi has appointed an independent fiduciary for all of its tax
qualified defined benefit pension plans who is charged with pursuing claims on behalf of the plans
to recover minimum funding contributions.
