Discontinued Operations

On March 5, 2017 we entered into the Agreement to sell our European Business to PSA Group. On July 31, 2017 we closed the sale of our Opel/Vauxhall Business to PSA Group, and on October 31, 2017 we closed the sale of the Fincos to Banque PSA Finance S.A. and BNP Paribas Personal Finance S.A. For a further description of the terms and conditions of the Agreement refer to Note 3 of our 2017 Form 10-K.

Our wholly owned subsidiary (the Seller) has agreed to indemnify PSA Group for certain losses resulting from any inaccuracy of the representations and warranties or breaches of our covenants included in the Agreement and for certain other liabilities including emissions and product liabilities. The Company has entered into a guarantee for the benefit of PSA Group and pursuant to which the Company has agreed to guarantee the Seller's obligation to indemnify PSA Group. Certain of these indemnification obligations are subject to time limitations, thresholds and/or caps as to the amount of required payments. We are currently unable to estimate any reasonably possible overall amounts or range of loss that may result from claims made under these indemnities, if any.

In 2017, PSA Group provided a number of post-closing working capital and other adjustments under the Agreement and other ancillary agreements. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we reached final agreement with PSA Group with respect to these adjustments, as well as certain other matters related to the European Business. The cost of resolving these matters is classified in discontinued operations and was insignificant.

We will purchase from and supply to PSA Group certain vehicles for a period of time following closing. Total net sales and revenue of $607 million and purchases and expenses of $476 million related to transactions with the Opel/Vauxhall Business were included in continuing operations during the three months ended March 31, 2018. Cash payments were $426 million and cash receipts of $811 million were recorded in Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities – continuing operations related to transactions with the Opel/Vauxhall Business during the three months ended March 31, 2018.
