 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>On March&nbsp;28, 2017, Mary T. Barra, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of General Motors Company
(&#147;GM&#148;), sent the following letter by email to certain employees of GM, which letter was subsequently posted to GM&#146;s internal employee website. </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:24pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:9pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="center"><B>GLOBAL LEADER MESSAGE FROM MTB </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Dear GM
Leaders: </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Throughout the past seven months we have been discussing with one of our shareholders, Greenlight Capital, a financial proposal for GM developed
by Greenlight. We have carefully and diligently examined Greenlight&#146;s proposal, including numerous reviews with financial and legal experts, as well as with our Board. We have determined that Greenlight&#146;s unprecedented and unproven
proposal presents an unacceptably high risk that does not serve the best interests of our company or our shareholders. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The essence of Greenlight&#146;s
proposal is the elimination of the dividend on GM&#146;s existing common stock, creating a dual-class common stock structure with a new class of common stock that would pay a fixed dividend. This likely would lead to selling pressure by a
significant universe of institutional owners and cause concern and confusion among retail holders, resulting in downward pressure on our share price. It also would change our capital structure, limiting GM&#146;s financial flexibility and creating
unacceptable risks &#150; such as the potential loss of GM&#146;s investment grade credit rating &#150; and without any positive effect to our business. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Together with its proposal, Greenlight also is seeking to nominate new directors to stand for election to GM&#146;s Board of Directors. We have a highly
experienced Board with relevant expertise and capabilities in key areas that align with our strategic direction and we have a well-defined process for review of all director candidates. After evaluating Greenlight&#146;s candidates, including the
connection between Greenlight&#146;s nominations and its proposal, the Board, on the unanimous recommendation of the Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee of the Board, unanimously determined not to recommend any of Greenlight&#146;s
candidates for election to the GM Board of Directors. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For additional information on Greenlight&#146;s proposal and our response, see the press release
issued just moments ago www.gm.com/mol/m-2017-mar-0328-shareholder.html. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our record operational performance during the past three years, strong 2017
outlook, steady ratings upgrades and significant return of capital to shareholders are all direct results of the strides we have made as a company&#151; progress that is centered on enhancing life&#146;s journey for our customers and the communities
in which they live and work. Our Board and leadership team are focused on creating value for our owners, leading the future of personal mobility, maintaining our strong, current performance and providing our customers with options that are safer,
simpler and better. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We have a small, dedicated team dealing with this matter so that the larger team can do what it always does: drive the business
forward. While today&#146;s news will generate media coverage, I am counting on you to keep us all focused on winning customers for life, leading the transformation of personal mobility and fulfilling our commitments. We will continue to send
updates as needed. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As always, thank you for your dedication and support. </P>
