Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
     As previously reported, on July 2, 2009, Proliance International, Inc. (“Proliance”) and its United States subsidiaries (together with Proliance, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The cases are being jointly administered as In re: Proliance International, Inc., Case No. 09-12278 (the “Bankruptcy Case”).
     Also on July 2, 2009, Proliance and certain of the other Debtors (collectively, “Sellers”) entered into an acquisition agreement with Centrum Equities XV, LLC (“Buyer”) providing for the sale to Buyer of substantially all of Proliance’s North American assets (as previously amended, the “Acquisition Agreement”).
     On August 13, 2009, Sellers and Buyer entered into a second amendment to the Acquisition Agreement (the “Second Amendment”) to, among other things, provide for a fixed purchase price of $15.0 million, subject to adjustment based only on the Sellers’ level of cash collections from customers for the week beginning August 10, 2009. The purchase price will not otherwise be adjusted, including based on inventory or accounts receivables levels as was previously reported. The Second Amendment is incorporated herein by reference and is attached as Exhibit 2.1 to this report.
     A sale hearing concerning the approval of the acquisition of the North American assets by Buyer was held before the Bankruptcy Court on August 13, 2009. At the hearing, the Bankruptcy Court entered a final order approving the sale on the terms set forth in the Acquisition Agreement, as amended.
Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
     The information provided in Item 1.01 above is incorporated herein by reference to this Item 2.01. The sale of the North American assets to Buyer was consummated under the provisions of Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code on August 14, 2009, following the bidding process approved by the Bankruptcy Court.
     Proliance is continuing the separate process of marketing its Nederlandse Radiateuren Fabriek B.V. subsidiary in Europe. As previously disclosed, Proliance expects there will be no recovery to its common stockholders upon completion of the bankruptcy process.
Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.
     (d) Exhibits.
     The following exhibit is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K:
