INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN THE REPORT

Item 5.    Other Events

On August 6, 2003, Federal-Mogul Corporation (the “Company”) filed a motion with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Delaware for approval of its Amended and Restated Revolving Credit, Term Loan and Guaranty Agreement, dated as of August 6, 2003 (the “Amended Credit Agreement”) with JP Morgan Chase Bank, as Administrative Agent for the lenders. The Amended Credit Agreement amends the Company’s current debtor in possession financing facility, which is scheduled to expire on September 30, 2003.

As requested by the Company, the Amended Credit Agreement will reduce the Company’s total borrowing capacity from $675 million to $600 million, $350 million of which will be in the form of a revolving credit facility. The expiration of the borrowing facility will be extended to February 6, 2005. In addition, the Amended Credit Agreement will reset the Company’s financial covenants to reflect changes in the Company’s business.

A hearing to approve the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement is currently scheduled to be held on August 27, 2003.
