Chrysler LLC has filed 4 (the original and 1 amendment and 2 supplemental) lists of Assumed Designated Supplier Contracts and Cure Costs.  Undoubtedly, there are changes that will be made.  The lists to date have already undergone substantial objection and in many instances Chrysler and the Supplier are on different planets in terms of Cure Cost amounts.

For any Tier 2 Supplier, however, it is still important to determine if its Tier 1 customer is on the list.  There is at least one big surprise omission from the assumed contract list.

If you try and compare the list of the top suppliers in terms of cure costs with the 50 Largest Unsecured Creditors identified in Chrysler’s petition, you will drive yourself crazy.  No, they don’t match up.  Of course, there represent two different calculations – so some variations may be understandable.  However, at this point, the original top 50 unsecured creditor list looks highly suspect.

The following is the consolidated list of  as of May 28, 2009.
