Certain information contained in this Schedule 13D/A relates to share ownership of persons other than the Reporting Persons. The Reporting Persons expressly disclaim any liability for any such information and for any other information provided in this Amendment that does not expressly pertain to a Reporting Person, as such term is defined in Item 2 of the Initial Schedule 13D. The information set forth in the Exhibits to this Amendment is hereby expressly incorporated herein by reference, and the responses to each item of this Amendment are qualified in their entirety by the provisions of such Exhibits. Unless otherwise indicated, all capitalized terms shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Initial Schedule 13D, and unless otherwise amended hereby, all information previously filed remains in effect. ITEM 4 IS HEREBY AMENDED BY ADDING THE FOLLOWING: Subsequent to July 23, 2007 and in connection with the Bankruptcy Proceedings, the New Investors and the Issuer agreed to certain modifications to the New Investment Agreement. On August 2, 2007, the Bankruptcy Court held a hearing on Delphi's motion for the approval of the New Investment Agreement. On August 2, 2007, the Bankruptcy Court approved such motion and on August 3, 2007, the modified New Investment Agreement and certain commitment letters thereunder were executed by the parties thereto. Copies of the modified Investment Agreement and commitment letters are attached hereto as Exhibit 25, Exhibit 26, Exhibit 27 and Exhibit 28, respectively. Except as described in this Item 4 or otherwise described in this Statement, the Reporting Persons currently have no plans or proposals which relate to or would result in any transaction, event or action enumerated in paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of the form of Schedule 13D promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Subject to the terms of the New Investment Agreement and the Letter Agreement, each of the Reporting Persons reserves the right, in light of its or his ongoing evaluation of the Issuer's financial condition, business, operations and prospects, the market price of the Common Stock, conditions in the securities markets generally, general economic and industry conditions, its or his business objectives and other relevant factors, to change its or his plans and intentions at any time, as it or he deems appropriate. In particular, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing (but subject to the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, the New Investment Agreement and the Letter Agreement), any one or more of the Reporting Persons (and their respective affiliates) reserves the right, in each case subject to any applicable limitations imposed on the sale of any of their Common Stock by the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or other applicable law, to (i) purchase additional shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Issuer, (ii) sell or transfer shares of Common Stock or other securities beneficially owned by them from time to time in Page 12 of 17 public or private transactions and (iii) cause any of the Reporting Persons to distribute in kind to their respective stockholders, partners or members, as the case may be, shares of Common Stock or other securities owned by such Reporting Persons. This Amendment is not a solicitation for votes on the Issuer's plan of reorganization. No disclosure statement has been approved by the Bankruptcy Court for the Issuer's plan of reorganization. ITEM 6 IS HEREBY AMENDED BY ADDING THE FOLLOWING: On August 3, 2007, after approval by the Bankruptcy Court, the New Investors and Issuer entered into the New Investment Agreement and certain commitment letters thereunder. Other than as described in this Statement, to the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) among the Reporting Persons, and between any such persons and any other person, with respect to any securities of the Issuer, including but not limited to, transfer and voting of any of the securities, finder's fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies, or a pledge or contingency the occurrence of which would give another person voting power or investment power over the securities of the Issuer.
