Item 8.01.   Other Events.

     Dana Corporation (Dana) and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the Debtors) are operating under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the Bankruptcy Code). The Debtors’ Chapter 11 cases (collectively, the Bankruptcy Cases) are pending in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the Bankruptcy Court), where they have been consolidated under the caption In re Dana Corporation, et al., Case No. 06-10354 (BRL).

     As previously disclosed, on August 31, 2007 the Debtors filed a Joint Plan of Reorganization of Debtors and Debtors in Possession and related Disclosure Statement with Respect to Joint Plan of Reorganization of Debtors and Debtors in Possession with the Bankruptcy Court.

     On October 19, 2007, the Debtors filed a First Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization of Debtors and Debtors in Possession (the First Amended Plan) and related First Amended Disclosure Statement with Respect to Joint Plan of Reorganization of Debtors and Debtors in Possession (the First Amended Disclosure Statement) with the Bankruptcy Court. The First Amended Plan and the First Amended Disclosure Statement are subject to the review and approval of the Bankruptcy Court. Copies of the First Amended Plan and the First Amended Disclosure Statement are available, free of charge, at www.dana.bmcgroup.com.

     Certain statements and projections contained in the First Amended Plan and/or the First Amended Disclosure Statement (including their exhibits) are, by their nature, forward-looking within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements and projections are subject to uncertainties relating to the Debtors’ operations and business environment and a number of other risks, uncertainties and assumptions (including, but not limited to, those discussed in Section XIV of the First Amended Disclosure Statement, “Certain Risk Factors to be Considered”) which are difficult to predict and which are, in many cases, beyond the Debtors’ control. In light of these risks and uncertainties, the events and circumstances described in the forward-looking statements and projections in the First Amended Plan and/or the First Amended Disclosure Statement may not occur and the Debtors’ actual financial results could differ materially from those expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements and projections. Dana does not undertake to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements or projections contained in the First Amended Plan and/or the First Amended Disclosure Statement, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

     The First Amended Plan and the First Amended Disclosure Statement are subject to material modifications. There is no assurance as to what claims or interests will be satisfied, and in what manner, under the Debtors’ plan of reorganization as ultimately confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court. Therefore, investors should exercise appropriate caution with respect to existing and future investments in any of the Debtors’ liabilities and/or securities and should not rely on the attached First Amended Plan and First Amended Disclosure Statement in making any investment decision.

     This report is not intended to be a solicitation of votes for any reorganization of the Debtors.
