Item 8.01 Other Events

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.
