Re-establish Chevrolet as a Leader In Mainstream Volume Cars and Crossovers New Malibu must establish Chevrolet credibility in critical mid-car market Utilize Malibu as the foundation for rebuilding brand health with future entries Leverage Camaro to bring excitement and design leadership back to the brand Develop Chevy entries to meet new car buyers' (Aveo) and Gen-Y needs (Cruze) Achieve best-in-segment fuel economy Grow incremental volume

Traverse Marketing Approach Traverse will be superior in all the important practical aspects: utility, safety, and fuel economy Traverse has a great opportunity to reach a very desirable target: Successful, educated women who have a lot going on in their lives - career, family, community, socially. They have high functional needs, but want to meet those needs in style. Traverse has the best fuel economy (24 mpg) of any 8-passenger crossover, as well as best-in-class cargo room Messaging for Traverse, like all Chevy models, will emphasize fuel economy and value Chevy Traverse: It's everything you've ever wished for... and then some

Re-ignite Cadillac's Renaissance to Achieve Leadership In the Luxury Segment Design and engineer products to meet global expectations of luxury buyers Provide a full product line-up and features to fit global luxury segments Align execution of luxury image in all aspects of the retail channel Leverage CTS launch as momentum-builder to strengthen brand health: CTS SportWagon, Coupe, SRX in 2009

U.S. Action Plans for Balance of 2008 Continue to improve car and crossover market share and profitability Shift marketing spend to growing segments, driven by fuel efficiency (Cobalt, HHR, Malibu, VUE, G6, etc.) Defend trucks through loyalty programs, targeted conquest, and trade assistance Utilize 100 Year Anniversary, Employee Discount Sale as big merchandising event to smooth transition away from lease in Q3 Implement focused incentive plans to address customer concerns and ongoing leasing issues in Q4 Last 90 days at sub-13M market likely represents the low point of the market downturn Plan business at 14M, maintain ability to leverage inevitable market recovery
