Judge Approves GM's 363 Sale

Judge Approves GM's 363 Sale
GM's bankruptcy seems to be going as quickly as Chrysler's, so far.

June 2, 2009
By: Nsap


Earlier this afternoon GMI was informed that the bankruptcy judge preceding over the bankruptcy of General Motors has already made another fairly substantial ruling in the matter. As many media outlets, including GMI, have reported, GM is seeking a 363 sale in Chapter 11 bankruptcy. This process will allow the company to seperate it's toxic assets to be liquidated in court while the good assets can emerge from bankruptcy protection and start a new life.

According to sources, the judge approved of GM's purposed 363 sale this afternoon. What this means is that the bankruptcy proceedings can continue on according to the pre-packaged plan that was put in place by the Auto Task Force and GM management.

Today's approval of the 363 sale has also brought out the last date in which someone can bid on the new GM, which will be June 22. In order to upset the government's bid on the new company, a firm would have to bid over $35 Billion for new GM. In other words, it is unlikely that anyone will bid over the government. We're also told that final approval of the sale is expected as soon as June 30th. If that is the case, it appears that GM's bankruptcy will be as speedy as Chrysler's was.

In addition, GMI was told that as of late last week 52% of GM's bondholders had agreed to the latest deal. This is important in that those that have agreed to the new deal will not be voicing any opposition to the bankruptcy plan.

Re: Judge Approves GM's 363 Sale

I guess mt questions are:


1. Which cars are dissapearing? What I mean is that I know Pontiac,Saab,Hummer and Saturn are dissapearing but which Chevrolets,Buicks,and Caddillacs are also going in this effort?

2. For the dealers that are closing, what will they do with the leftover cars.

The GMI member list has 14566 members...divided by $35 billion is only approximately $2.4 million apiece. And that's just to match the U.S. government's bid...they can always go print more money.
