As noted below under Item 5.07, at the 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the "Annual Meeting") of General
Motors Company ("GM" or the "Company") held on June 2, 2026, GM's shareholders, upon the recommendation of
GM's Board of Directors (the “Board”), approved Amendment No. 2 (the “Amendment”) to the General Motors

the term of the 2020 LTIP to June 3, 2036.
A more detailed description of the material terms of the Amendment was included in the Company's Definitive
Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on April 20,
2026 and the supplement thereto on Schedule 14A filed with the SEC on May 26, 2026 (together, the "Proxy
Statement"), and such description is hereby incorporated by reference herein. The foregoing and the summary in the
Proxy Statement are not complete summaries of the terms of the Amendment and are qualified by reference to the
text of the Amendment, which is included as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.
