European Cost Reduction
In the third quarter of 2012, the company announced plans to close an
aftermarket facility in Vittaryd, Sweden. The company has completed its
consultations with the works councils and is moving forward with this action.
On January 31, 2013, the company announced its intention to make additional
fixed cost reductions in Europe, subject to approval by the company's board of
directors. Including the Vittaryd closure, the company plans to reduce
structural costs in Europe by $60 million annually. The company anticipates
related costs of approximately $120 million, which includes restructuring
charges of approximately $6 million related to the closure of the Vittaryd
facility which the company recorded during the third and fourth quarters of 2012
and a non-cash asset impairment charge of $7 million related to the European
ride control business which the company recorded during the fourth quarter of
2012. Tenneco expects that most of the remaining expense will be recorded in
late 2013 and 2014, and that the company will reach a full savings run rate in
2016. Any plans affecting the company's European hourly and salaried workforce
would be subject to union consultation.

company's annual meeting of stockholders for Wednesday, May 15, 2013 at 10:00
