Smith, Jr., Chairman President's Council) - 2 - INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT - ---------------------------- Saturn Individual Savings Plan for Represented Members: We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the Saturn Individual Savings Plan for Represented Members (the "Plan") as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. These standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of (1) assets held for investment purposes as of December 31, 1996 and (2) reportable transactions for the year ended December 31, 1996 are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements, but are supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. These schedules are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Such schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic 1996 financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. /s/DELOITTE & TOUCHE LLP DELOITTE & TOUCHE LLP Nashville, Tennessee June 13, 1997 - 3 -

Reference should be made to the Notes to Financial Statements. - 5 - SATURN INDIVIDUAL SAVINGS PLAN FOR REPRESENTED MEMBERS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS A. PLAN DESCRIPTION Saturn Corporation ("Saturn"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of General Motors Corporation ("Corporation"), established a defined contribution plan, the Saturn Individual Savings Plan for Represented Members. The Finance Committee of the Corporation's Board of Directors acts as the Plan fiduciary and, along with various officers, employees and committees with authority delegated by the Plan fiduciary, controls and manages the operation and administration of the Plan subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"). Assets of the Plan are held by various investment managers under the direction of a Trustee. The Plan provides eligible represented members with tax-deferred and after-tax voluntary savings opportunities. The following brief description of the Plan is provided for general information purposes only. Refer to the "Complete Text" of the Plan for a comprehensive description. PARTICIPATION Eligibility in the Plan is restricted to regular employees of Saturn compensated fully or partly by salary who are represented by the United Auto Workers ("UAW") or other labor organizations which have adopted the Plan. Employees who are classified as temporary, contract or leased employees are not eligible to participate. Eligible Employees may participate in the Plan and accumulate savings as of the first day of employment. Employees on approved disability leaves of absence, or certain special leaves of absence, remain eligible to accumulate savings for a period of one year while on such leaves. PARTICIPANT CONTRIBUTIONS Participants may elect to contribute to the Plan in several ways: o Participants may contribute up to 18% of Eligible Earnings (20% effective January 1, 1997) on an after-tax basis whereby the contributions are included in the participant's taxable income in the period of contribution ("After-Tax Savings"). o Participants may contribute up to 18% of Eligible Earnings (20% effective January 1, 1997), or $9,500 and 9,240 for the years ended 1996 and 1995, respectively, whichever is less, on a tax-deferred basis, whereby the contributions are excluded from the participant's taxable income until such amounts are distributed to the participant from the Plan ("Tax-Deferred Savings"). o Participants may elect to combine the above contribution methods, provided the contribution limitations noted above are not exceeded. o Participants who have transferred to Saturn from another unit of the Corporation are allowed to transfer assets into the Plan from the General Motors Corporation Personal Savings Plan Trust. o Newly hired Employees are permitted to make a rollover contribution equal to the taxable portion of cash proceeds received from a previous employer's qualified savings plan ("Rollover Contributions"). Description of Investment Options: GENERAL MOTORS CORPORATION COMMON STOCK $1-2/3 PAR VALUE - Under this option, a participant's contributions are invested in General Motors common stock. Each participant directs the Trustee how to vote common stock shares allocated to his or her account. The Trustee will not exercise voting rights with respect to those shares for which a direction has not been received by the required deadline. - 6 - SATURN INDIVIDUAL SAVINGS PLAN FOR REPRESENTED MEMBERS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - Continued Assets invested in the Common Stock Fund are expressed in terms of units rather than shares of stock. Each unit represents a proportionate interest in all of the assets of the Common Stock Fund. The number of units credited to a participant's account will be determined by the amount of the participant's contributions and the purchase price of a unit. EQUITY INDEX FUND - Under this option, participant contributions are invested in a portfolio of common stocks managed by an investment manager. The investment manager maintains a portfolio which is designed to match the performance of the Standard and Poor's 500 Index. This Index is a broad-based index of large companies which operate in a wide variety of industries and market sectors and which represent over two-thirds of the market capitalization of all publicly traded common stocks in the United States. BALANCED FUND - Under this option, contributions are invested in equity and fixed income investments selected from opportunities available in the entire global capital market, including large and small capitalization common stocks, investment and non-investment grade bonds, convertible securities, real estate, emerging market investments, and venture capital, and may be issued by U.S. and non-U.S. issuers. From time to time, investment managers may use derivative financial instruments including forward exchange contracts and futures contracts. Derivative instruments are used primarily to mitigate exposure to foreign exchange rate and interest rate fluctuations as well as manage the investment mix in the portfolio. The Plan's interest in funds which utilized such financial instruments is not considered significant to the Plan's financial statements. Effective January 1, 1995, the above three options were included under the General Motors Savings Plans Master Trust (See Note F.) INCOME FUND - Under this option, funds are invested in investment contracts issued by insurance companies. The issuing companies have agreed to provide this fund with a net fixed or floating contract interest rate that is to be earned over a specified period and payment of principal and interest upon participant initiated withdrawals and/or transfers of assets. The crediting interest rates, fund managers and contract value of the investment contracts at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively, were as follows:
Interest Interest Rate Rate as of as of Fund Investment Contracts 12/31/96 12/31/95 Manager 1996 1995 -------- ----------------------------- ---------- ---------- 6.23% 6.23% Principal Mutual Life $2,663,481 $4,687,940 7.38% 7.38% Provident National 1,439,123 2,504,741 - 8.90% Prudential Life - 1,245,491 - 6.77% New York Life - 115,650 6.36% 6.14% John Hancock Mutual Life 3,292,389 3,099,649 6.20% 6.00% John Hancock Mutual Life 7,236,957 2,841,114 7.09% 7.00% Metropolitan Life 12,823,713 11,986,594 ---------- ---------- $27,455,663 $26,481,179 ========== ==========
- 7 - SATURN INDIVIDUAL SAVINGS PLAN FOR REPRESENTED MEMBERS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - Continued The contract value of the investment contracts approximates their fair value at December 31, 1996 and 1995. The average yield on investment contracts for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 was 6.70% and 6.78%, respectively. In 1996 and 1995, investments were also made in short-term U.S. Government debt obligations and cash. At December 31, 1996 and 1995, the fair value of such investments, considered as the Fixed Income Fund was $8,957,879 and $4,457,488, respectively. MUTUAL FUNDS - This option is comprised of four core option mutual funds and thirty-five self directed account mutual funds managed by Fidelity Investments. (See Note C.) The core option mutual funds are Fidelity Magellan, Puritan, Contrafund and Asset Manager. Each fund has a different objective and investment strategy. To pursue their objectives, the fund managers invest in a wide variety of investments. Complete information about each fund's objectives and investments is contained in that fund's prospectus. VESTING Participant contributions vest immediately. Saturn matched participant contributions made through January 1, 1992 and earnings thereon vest fully upon the attainment of 5 years of service, death, total and permanent disability or retirement. DISTRIBUTIONS Participants may withdraw their Tax-Deferred Savings after they reach age 59-1/2 or prior to age 59-1/2 for Financial Hardship, as defined in the Plan's "Complete Text". After-Tax Savings, vested Saturn matched contributions and related earnings may be withdrawn any time upon a participant's request. Upon termination of employment, a final distribution of assets is made unless termination is by retirement, or the participants account exceeds $3,500. In those instances, the distribution may be deferred until April 1 of the year after the participant reaches the age of 70-1/2. There were no distributions payable to participants included in net assets available for benefits as of December 31, 1996 and 1995. TRANSFERS Participants may transfer assets between Investment Options at any time, with certain limitations. LOANS Participants may borrow once per calendar year from both their Tax-Deferred and After-Tax Savings assets. The amount and term of the loans are limited under the Plan. Loans bear a rate of interest equal to the prime lending rate as of the last business day of the calendar quarter immediately preceding the date the Participant gives appropriate direction for a loan to the Plan recordkeeper (interest rates for outstanding loans at December 31, 1996 ranged from 6% to 9%). Interest paid on the loans is credited back to the borrowing participant's account in the Plan. No earnings will accrue to the assets liquidated for the loan. At December 31, 1996 and 1995 loans to participants were $9,001,970 and $6,926,226, respectively. - 8 - SATURN INDIVIDUAL SAVINGS PLAN FOR REPRESENTED MEMBERS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - Continued TERMINATION OF THE PLAN Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, Saturn has the right under the Plan to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of termination, partial termination, or complete discontinuance of contributions, the Administrator may direct the Trustee to: o continue to administer the Plan and pay account balances in accordance with the Plan's distribution policy described in Note A, or o distribute the assets remaining in the Plan in a lump sum to participants and beneficiaries in proportion to their respective account balances. B. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements are as follows: o Investments are stated as follows: - Value of Interest in General Motors Savings Plans Master Trust - at estimated market prices of the assets in the Master Trust as determined by the investment manager. - Investment Contacts - at contract value, which consists of cost plus accumulated interest. - Common/Collective Trust - Fixed Income Fund - at estimated market prices of the assets in the Fund as determined by the investment manager. - Mutual Funds - at quoted market value. o General Motors common stock, $1-2/3 par value, acquired by the Trustee for purposes of the Plan may be obtained by purchases on the open market or from the Corporation by subscription or purchase. Such stock acquired by the Trustee on the open market is credited to the participants' accounts at the average per share cost of such purchases (excluding brokerage commissions, transfer taxes, etc.) made for each month. Stock obtained by the Trustee directly from the Corporation is credited to participants' accounts either at the average per share cost to the Trustee of the open market purchases of the stock acquired for a particular month or, in those months in which the Trustee acquires no stock on the open market, at the average of the daily mean high and low market prices of the stock as reported on the Composite Tape of Transactions for such month. o Securities transactions are recorded on the date the trades are executed. o Net appreciation in value of investments held, sold, or distributed represents the change in the market value of the Plan's investments during the year. o Investment income is recognized as earned. o The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported therein. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may be based upon amounts which differ from those estimates. o Certain costs of Plan administration are paid by Saturn. o Certain reclassifications have been made to prior-year amounts to conform with current-year presentation. - 9 - SATURN INDIVIDUAL SAVINGS PLAN FOR REPRESENTED MEMBERS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - Continued C.

THE MASTER TRUST As of December 21, 1994, the Corporation established the General Motors Savings Plans Master Trust (the "Master Trust") pursuant to a trust agreement among the Corporation, Saturn Corporation and State Street Bank and Trust, as trustee of the funds, in order to permit the commingling of trust assets of several employee benefit plans for investment and administrative purposes.
