Remy Receives Final Court Approval of $225 Million DIP Facility

    ANDERSON, Ind., Nov. 7 /PRNewswire/ -- Remy Worldwide Holdings today
announced that it has received final approval from the Bankruptcy Court of
its $225 million debtor-in-possession (DIP) facility led by Barclays
Capital, the investment division of Barclays Bank PLC.
    "The approval of the final DIP facility is right in line with our game
plan, and keeps us on track to complete our consensual restructuring and
emerge from chapter 11 in early December as planned," said John Weber,
Remy's Chief Executive Officer. "The DIP facility provides more than
adequate resources to fund our post-petition obligations to suppliers and
employees and our other operating requirements during the plan confirmation
process."
    A hearing to confirm Remy's prepackaged plan of reorganization is
scheduled for November 20.
    Remy filed its voluntary chapter 11 petitions and plan of
reorganization in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware in
Wilmington on October 8, 2007.
