Item 8.01

Other Events.

As previously disclosed on November 21, 2012 in a Current Report on Form 8-K, on November 21, 2012, in accordance with the Debtors’ Second Amended Joint Chapter 11 Plan dated as of March 18, 2011 of Motors Liquidation Company and certain of its affiliates as debtors and debtors in possession and the Amended and Restated Motors Liquidation Company GUC Trust Agreement dated as of June 11, 2012 and executed by the parties thereto (as subsequently amended), Wilmington Trust Company, solely in its capacity as trust administrator and trustee (in such capacity, the “GUC Trust Administrator”) of the Motors Liquidation Company GUC Trust (the “GUC Trust”), filed a motion (the “Motion”) with the Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”) for authority to liquidate shares of common stock and warrants (the “New GM Securities”) of General Motors Company (“New GM”) to fund expected fees, costs, and expenses of the GUC Trust.

On December 11, 2012, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order (the “Sale Order”) granting the relief requested in the Motion. A copy of the Sale Order is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto. Pursuant to the authority granted by the Sale Order, the GUC Trust Administrator plans to sell New GM Securities, the cash proceeds of which (net of any applicable costs, fees, expenses and taxes payable in respect thereof) are expected to approximate $17,852,400.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements about the assets, prospects and plans of the GUC Trust. Actual results could differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements because of various risks and uncertainties, including, without limitation, the GUC Trust’s incurrence of professional fees and other expenses in connection with administration of the GUC Trust, economic conditions, changes in tax and other governmental rules and regulations applicable to the GUC Trust, fluctuations in the market price of the New GM Securities, and other risks, as well as various risks and uncertainties associated with New GM, as described in New GM’s periodic and current reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or Exchange Act. These risks and uncertainties are beyond the ability of the GUC Trust to control, and in many cases, risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements cannot be predicted. When used in this Form 8-K, the words “believes,” “estimates,” “plans,” “expects,” “intends,” and “anticipates” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.
