As previously disclosed on January 13, 2016 in a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Prior 8-K”), the Motors Liquidation Company GUC Trust (the “GUC Trust”) announced that it had reached an agreement in principle (the “Proposed Agreement”) with the Motors Liquidation Company Avoidance Action Trust (the “Avoidance Action Trust”) regarding the treatment of certain potential general unsecured claims of defendants to a legal action being pursued by the Avoidance Action Trust (the “Term Loan Avoidance Action Claims”). The Proposed Agreement, if it were to become effective, would have resulted in limiting the potential liability of the GUC Trust associated with the Term Loan Avoidance Action Claims, which amount was previously uncertain, to $75 million.
As stated in the Prior 8-K, the Proposed Agreement was subject to the satisfaction of a number of conditions precedent, including but not limited to a requirement that the parties negotiate and reach agreement on definitive documentation incorporating the terms of the Proposed Agreement.
The GUC Trust hereby announces that the parties to the Proposed Agreement were unable to reach agreement on the final terms of the Proposed Agreement. Accordingly, the GUC Trust will no longer be pursuing the Proposed Agreement.
