Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On March 31, 2009, Residential Funding Company, LLC ("RFC"), an indirect subsidiary of Residential Capital, LLC ("ResCap"), entered into a Membership Interest and Share Purchase Agreement (together with the exhibits thereto, the "Purchase Agreement") with GMAC LLC ("GMAC"), ResCap’s indirect parent, whereby RFC agreed to sell to GMAC (i) all of the outstanding limited liability company membership interests (the "RFS Interests") in Residential Funding Securities, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and SEC-registered broker-dealer (“RFS”) and (ii) all of the outstanding share capital (the "RFCIL Interests") of RFC Investments Limited ("RFCIL").  RFCIL owns all of the outstanding share capital of RFSC International Limited, a broker-dealer registered with the Financial Services Authority in the United Kingdom ("RFSC").  Each of RFCIL and RFSC are private companies limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales.
 
The aggregate consideration to be paid to RFC (i) in exchange for the RFS Interests shall be $43,664,688 in cash (representing the net book value of RFS as of February 28, 2009 less $500,000) and (ii) in exchange for the RFCIL Interests shall be $16,970,486 in cash (representing the net book value of RFSC as of February 28, 2009), in each case subject to adjustment after the closing of the transactions to account for any change (positive or negative) in net book value of the respective entities between March 1, 2009 and the closing date.  In addition, on the closing date with respect to the RFS Interests, GMAC shall pay to RFC an amount equal to all outstanding principal due and payable under the existing $50,000,000 subordinated loan between RFC and RFS, and provide a new $50,000,000 subordinated loan to RFS in replacement thereof.  This transaction was determined by an independent, third party financial advisor to be fair to ResCap from a financial point of view.
 
The Purchase Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants customary for such agreements, and the closing of the transaction is conditioned upon receipt of all required regulatory approvals applicable to RFS and RFSC.
 
In connection with the closing of the transaction, the RFS Interests and the RFCIL Interests will be released from the liens securing ResCap's senior secured credit facility with GMAC and ResCap's secured notes.
