ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS

As previously disclosed in our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2003, Litex, Inc. filed suit against Delphi in federal court in the District of Massachusetts alleging infringement of certain patents regarding methods to reduce engine exhaust emissions and seeking substantial damages. On November 12, 2003, during trial, the parties reached an agreement to dismiss the litigation with prejudice in favor of an agreement to submit the case to binding arbitration. We expect the arbitration to take place during the first quarter of 2004.
