 Department of Justice
 On March 16, 2015, the Department of Justice lodged a proposed Consent Decree with the United States District Court for the Southern District of Indiana in the lawsuit entitled 
                    *United States and the State of Indiana*
                     v. 
                    *Exide Technologies,*
                     Civil Action No. 15-cv-433 (S.D. Ind.). A Complaint that was filed along with the proposed Consent Decree alleges that Exide Technologies (“Exide”) has violated the Clean Air Act and its implementing regulations, certain terms and conditions of Exide's Clean Air Act Title V operating permit, and corresponding requirements under Indiana state law at its secondary lead smelting facility in Muncie, Indiana. The proposed Consent Decree would resolve the claims alleged in the Complaint in exchange for Exide's commitment to make specific improvements to its air pollution control and monitoring systems at its Muncie facility, including installing a new furnace exhaust gas afterburner, and to pay civil penalties to the United States and the State. The penalties would be paid as allowed claims in Exide's pending Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceeding, captioned 
                    *In re Exide Technologies,*
                     No. 13-11482-KJC (Bankr. D. Del.). The Consent Decree would grant the United States and the State equivalent allowed penalty claims in the bankruptcy totaling $820,000, including a $246,000 allowed administrative expense claim and a $164,000 allowed general unsecured claim each for the United States and the State.
