Item 5.08.  Shareholder Director Nominations.

On January 27, 2014, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Accuride Corporation (the “Company”) authorized the Company to establish April 24, 2014 as the date of the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”).  The Committee also authorized the Company to establish March 5, 2014 as the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting.

Because the Annual Meeting will be held more than 30 days prior to the one-year anniversary of the 2013 annual meeting of stockholders, pursuant to the Company’s bylaws, any qualified stockholder proposal or qualified stockholder nomination is due to the Company no later than February 10, 2014.  The Company currently intends to make its proxy material available beginning on or about March 20, 2014.
