ITEM 2.05
COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH EXIT OR DISPOSAL ACTIVITIES
 
On January 27, 2009, Navistar International Corporation (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (“Form 8-K”) disclosing that it committed to close its Indianapolis Engine Plant (“IEP”) and its foundry, Indianapolis Casting Corporation (“ICC”).  On February 23, 2009, the Company filed a Current Report on Form 8-K/A amending the Form 8-K to include the range of costs expected to be incurred in connection with its commitment to close IEP and ICC.  The closures of IEP and ICC were originally expected to be completed by July 31, 2009.  With respect to the IEP facility, the Company intends to continue certain quality control and manufacturing engineering activities at IEP for the foreseeable future. Subsequent to July 31, 2009, there will be no other business activities at the IEP facility aside from such engineering activities.  With respect to the ICC facility, the Company anticipates that it will close ICC by December 31, 2009.  The changes to the Company’s planned activities at IEP and the timing of the closure of ICC are not expected to have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations including previously disclosed charges.
