Item 8.01 Other Events

Private Exchange Offers

     On December 19, 2008, GMAC LLC (“GMAC”) announced that in connection with its separate private exchange offers and cash tender offers to purchase and/or exchange certain of its and its subsidiaries’ (the “GMAC offers”) and Residential Capital, LLC’s (the “ResCap offers”) outstanding notes (the “GMAC old notes” and the “ResCap old notes”, respectively), GMAC intends to undertake a transaction or series of transactions pursuant to which, concurrently with or shortly following completion of the GMAC offers and ResCap offers and receipt of all requisite approvals, GMAC would transfer ResCap old notes acquired by GMAC in the ResCap debt-for-debt exchange offers in an amount equal to at least 25% of ResCap’s outstanding debt to ResCap in exchange for all or a majority of the non-voting common equity of IB Finance Holding Company LLC (“IB Finance”) held by ResCap (the “IB Finance Transaction”). IB Finance is the parent entity for GMAC Bank. Immediately following the IB Finance Transaction, ResCap would cancel the ResCap old notes acquired from GMAC. The completion of the IB Finance Transaction, if undertaken, would be subject to various conditions, including agreement on the terms of the IB Finance Transaction with ResCap, the completion of the GMAC offers and the ResCap offers and the receipt of a fairness opinion with respect to the IB Finance Transaction, and there can be no assurance that the IB Finance Transaction will be completed. Whether or not the IB Finance Transaction will constitute a “Succession Event” with respect to any credit default swap contracts related to the ResCap old notes or otherwise will be a function of the terms of such contracts between the applicable parties. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
