    On March 2, 2006, General Motors Corporation, a Delaware 
corporation (``Issuer''), filed an application with the Securities and 
Exchange Commission (``Commission''), pursuant to Section 12(d) of the 
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'') \1\ and Rule 12d2-2(d) 
thereunder,\2\ to withdraw its common stock, $1\2/3\ par value

    The Administrative Committee of the Issuer's Board of Directors 
(``Board'') approved a resolution on September 9, 2005, to delist the 
Security from listing and registration on CHX. The Issuer stated that 
the purposes for seeking to delist the Security from CHX are to avoid 
dual regulatory oversight and dual listing fees. The Security is 
traded, and will continue to trade on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. 
(``NYSE''). In addition, the Issuer stated that CHX advised the Issuer 
that the Security will continue to trade on CHX under unlisted trading 
privileges.
    The Issuer stated in its application that it has complied with 
applicable rules of CHX by providing CHX with the required documents 
governing the withdrawal of securities from listing and registration on 
CHX. The Issuer's application relates solely to the withdrawal of the 
Security from listing on CHX and shall not affect its continued listing 
on NYSE, the Pacific Exchange, Inc. (``PCX''), or the Philadelphia 
Stock Exchange, Inc. (``PHLX''),\3\ or its obligation to be registered 
under Section 12(b) of the Act.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ The Issuer filed applications with the Commission to 
withdraw the Security from listing and registration on PCX and PHLX 
on February 23, 2006 and February 27, 2006, respectively. Notice of 
such applications will be published separately.
    \4\ 15 U.S.C. 78l(b).

    Any interested person may, on or before March 29, 2006, comment on
