Non-Management Challengers
PROXY STATEMENT
GM is in undisputed decline. Many plans are presented,Few have results.
The current GM Board of Directors failed to hold GM management accountable.
The only way for stockholders to make necessary course corrections is to
replace the current Directors. Vote for the Renaissance Board that
John Lauve has nominated. This will "Return GM to Greatness".
The GM stockholders paid for the mistakes of Mr. Wagoner's Board, by the
Loss of Stockholder Value.
1. Dividends cut by 50%
2. Valuable assets were sold, with no stockholder compensation
(GMAC was sold at a value of $24.77 per share).
This statement is made to solicit proxies for non-management
Challengers to replace the incumbent board).

THE PLAN -- "RETURN TO GREATNESS"
1. Management Shake Up, " Bring in Fresh Vision"
- -After 4 Years of Mr. Wagoner and Mr. Lutz , GM now has huge losses
2. Product Improvement
Eliminate customer dissatisfies (such as inaccurate gas gauges,
Dysfunctional cup holders, twisted seat belts, etc.)
Stop wasting money on low volume cars and improve high volume products
..
3. Saturn Image
- -Define as the mileage champion with diesels, E-85 (green gas) & electrics
4. Standard Parts
-Commonize more parts and stop "copycat"
cars like the Cadillac CTS
and STS, These cars look exactly alike yet, don't even share door handles.
5.Quality, "Learn from Past Mistakes"
- -Do not continue known mistakes from the past (example: pickup tailgate
Straps, where the replacement part fails too).
- -Our Director, John Lauve, championed meaningful Quality Control at
Cadillac Division.
6. Sales
GM management lacks real world car sales knowledge and experience.
Our Director, Jim Dollinger, is a top Buick salesman and can
Institutionalize his insight and knowledge for greater sales.
Visit his website at Generalwatch.com to view his thoughts about GM
7. Health Care
Promote a GM Health Care Management system like John Deere and Pfizer.
Our Director, Dr. Woodward, will implement system reform as opposed
to the recent changes that just "sends the bill to workers".
8. Accounting Accountability and Cost Control
Implement stringent Activity Based Costing procedures to understand
all facets that affect cost.
Our Director, Mr. Walde is a banker and Director Mr. Parks has
extensive knowledge of value analysis and product cost drivers.
ANNUAL MEETING
The meeting site is remote from its Corporate Office in Detroit. This
discourages access by having it in Wilmington, Delaware (9:00 a.m.
Tuesday, June 6, 2006 per GM notice). Last year, after Web casting the
Chairman's opening statement, GM cut off coverage of the "business"
items that were the official meeting purpose. Interested people were
denied learning important information discussed and not covered by the
news. Web casting should be an SEC openness requirement.
VOTING
There are three categories of voting
1. Registered Owners- Approximately 20% of stock owners have
stock certificates at home or held by the Corporation (Computershare)
2. GM Employee Plans-Approximately 16% of stock.
Note: Salaried employees, who fail to vote, automatically
have their stock voted for the Management Directors.
(These two plans vote through Computer share envelopes)
To vote for the challengers, check "withhold" on the Directors.
Then turn over and cross off the three names:
Wagoner, Hendrix, and Lutz. Replace with the name
John Lauve, written in black ink in above the crossed out names.
3. Stock Broker Clients
Since the broker technically owns the stock, they must
be told to vote their proxy to John Lauve.
Note: Client stockholders, who fail to vote, automatically
have their stock voted for the Management Directors.
This is a complicated process.
Note: Four of GM's Directors are on the boards of these companies
(Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs,Merrill Lynch, and Deutsche Bank).
