Item 7.01
Regulation FD Disclosure.

On May 13, 2013, Tecumseh held a conference call regarding our strategic initiatives plan. In the plan, we announced that we planned to identify and liquidate global non-core assets which included the Brazilian foundry. We commenced a process to market the foundry. The process has not resulted in the interest or value that we anticipated; therefore, we have decided not to sell the foundry at this time.
