On June 29, Delphi filed a motion seeking bankruptcy court approval on 19 July of a ratified UAW-Delphi-GM agreement and is currently in discussions with its second and third largest US which it hopes to conclude as soon as possible.
The company also said its discussions with GM on a comprehensive settlement agreement had entered the documentation phase and that it expected that a settlement with GM would be incorporated into the company’s plan of reorganisation rather than filed with the bankruptcy court for separate approval.
