Item 2.05.  COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH EXIT OR DISPOSAL ACTIVITIES


On April 24, 2007, the authorized senior executive officers of Proliance International, Inc. (the “Company”) determined to commit the Company to a number of actions designed to reduce the Company’s overall costs of doing business.  These actions include staff reductions at the Company’s manufacturing locations, along with reductions in staff associated with administrative and other support functions performed principally at the Company’s New Haven, Connecticut corporate office location.  The Company is also continuing the program announced at the end of the third quarter of 2006, which will better align its go-to-market distribution strategy with customer needs.  The program includes the relocation, consolidation or closure of some branches and the establishment of expanded relationships with key distribution partners in some areas, as well as the opening of new branches, as appropriate.  During the first quarter of 2007, the Company reduced the net number of branch and agency warehouse locations from 94 at December 31, 2006 to 90, and established expanded supply agreements with distribution partners in certain areas.  The Company incurred $275,000 of restructuring expenses during the quarter ended March 31, 2007 primarily as a result of these branch restructuring actions.  The Company intends to close five additional branch locations during the second quarter and serve those customers from other existing locations or through distribution partners.  


The activities described above, which are part of the $2,000,000 to $3,000,000 of restructuring initiatives, announced in the Company's third quarter 2006 results of operations press release, are expected to be completed by the end of the second quarter of 2007 and will result in the Company incurring approximately $1,100,000 of restructuring costs. Of these costs, approximately $1,000,000 are associated with one-time employee termination costs and the remainder are costs associated with the relocation of inventory and facility closures. All of these anticipated costs will result in future cash expenditures. Annual savings, which will begin to be experienced in 2007, are expected to significantly exceed the restructuring costs incurred.
