TABLE OF CONTENTS
ITEM 5.02 DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN
OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS
On March 19, 2008, the United States (U.S.) Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New
York entered a final order (the Supplemental Order) granting the motion of Delphi Corporation
(Delphi) and certain of its U.S. subsidiaries, which together with Delphi filed voluntary
petitions for reorganization relief under chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (each a Debtor),
to continue the Short-Term At Risk Performance Payment Program (the Program) for the six-month
period running from January 1, 2008 through June 30, 2008 (the Performance Period) under
substantially the same terms and conditions outlined in the order authorizing the Debtors to
implement an annual incentive plan for the first half of 2007 as disclosed in Form 8-K filed on
March 30, 2007 and for the second half of 2007 as disclosed in Form 8-K filed on October 5, 2007
with new corporate and divisional targets for the Performance Period. The performance targets are
subject to certain adjustments on a dollar-for-dollar basis to reflect any positive or negative
variance between the assumptions underlying the Debtors forecasted financial results for the
Performance Period and the terms of the agreements reached with Delphis labor unions and General
Motors Corporation. In addition, adjustments can be made for the divestitures of the assets of the
cockpits and interior systems and integrated closure systems businesses (the Interiors and
Closures Business) and the steering and halfshaft businesses (the Steering Business). However,
should Delphi emerge from chapter 11 proceedings during the Performance Period, the post-emergence
Compensation Committee retains the authority to make adjustments to the targets in order to
preserve the incentive features of the plan. In the event Delphi does not emerge from Chapter 11
on or before August 15, 2008, the Compensation Committee may make adjustments to the plan that are
in the best interests of Delphi so as to preserve the incentive features of the plan and/or
preserve human capital in light of then extant circumstances and events. In addition, the
unsecured creditors may review and reasonably object to certain adjustments made during the
Performance Period in the event Delphi does not emerge from chapter 11 on or before August 15,
2008. The Program applies to approximately 442 individuals holding executive positions with Delphi
or one of its affiliated Debtors in the U.S. during the Performance Period, including Delphis
President and Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and each other named executive
officer. The Program authorized by the Supplemental Order would pay approximately $21.2 million
for the achievement of target levels of performance and has a maximum payout of $39.1 million. An
annual incentive plan mirroring the Program continues to apply to approximately 115 individuals
holding executive positions at non-Debtor subsidiaries of Delphi. The foregoing description does
not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Supplemental Order,
a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99(a).
