Item 2.02 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

On February 29, 2008, Proliance International, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release, attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1, providing preliminary unaudited information with respect to the results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2007. The press release also contained other information, including an update on the status of the Southaven, Mississippi distribution facility which sustained significant damage as a result of being hit by two tornadoes on February 5, 2008 and information with respect to the Company’s credit facility.

Item 2.03. CREATION OF A DIRECT FINANCIAL OBLIGATION OR AN OBLIGATION UNDER AN OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENT OF A REGISTRANT

On February 26, 2008, the Company entered into a letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) relating to its Credit and Guaranty Agreement (as amended, the “Agreement”) by and among the Company and certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company, as guarantors, the lenders party thereto from time to time (collectively, “the Lenders”), Silver Point Finance, LLC (“Silver Point”), as administrative agent for the Lenders, collateral agent and as lead arranger, and Wachovia Capital Finance Corporation (New England) (“Wachovia”), as borrowing base agent.

The Letter Agreement primarily serves to set forth the parties’ agreement as to the application of certain insurance proceeds resulting from the severe tornado damage sustained by the Company’s primary distribution facility in Southaven, Mississippi, in an order and manner other than as set forth in the Agreement, due to the occurrence and continuation of certain Events of Default (as defined in the Agreement). The Letter Agreement also amended several provisions of the Agreement concerning payments and agent advances. The Letter Agreement resulted from the Company’s desire to act in its best interests to negotiate an agreement which would maximize liquidity and begin to restore its operations to normal.

The Company is currently working with the Lenders to cure or obtain waivers for the Events of Default, however, there can be no assurance that they will be cured or waivers obtained.

The foregoing description of the Letter Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Letter Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
