              TENNECO REPORTS RECORD HIGH 4Q AND FULL-YEAR REVENUES

     COMPANY'S GLOBAL POSITION AND TECHNOLOGY-DRIVEN NEW BUSINESS DELIVER STRONG
OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE


     -   Cash flow from operations in 4Q of $200 million, up 45%

     -   Due to previously announced $87 million in refinancing costs and
         non-cash tax charges to realign European ownership structure, company
         reports 4Q net loss of $72 million, $1.57 per diluted share,

     -   Adjusted net income of $15 million, 34-cents per diluted share; up from
         $3 million, 5-cents per diluted share

     -   Projects average compounded annual OE revenue growth rate of 11% to 13%
         between 2008 and 2012

Lake Forest, Illinois, January 24, 2008 - Tenneco (NYSE: TEN) reported a fourth
quarter net loss of $72 million, or $1.57 per diluted share, versus net income
of $15 million, or 31-cents per diluted share in fourth quarter 2006. The loss
was due to previously announced charges taken in the fourth quarter for actions
that advance Tenneco's financial strategy. These include costs for refinancing a
portion of the company's debt, which will reduce interest expense, and non-cash
tax charges for realigning the European ownership structure, which more
effectively aligns the company's U.S. and European assets and revenues with
liabilities and expenses. This action will reduce cash taxes and accelerates the
use of U.S. net operating losses.

After adjusting for charges below, net income was $15 million, or 34-cents per
diluted share, up from net income of $3 million, or 5-cents per diluted share a
year ago. The tables in this press release reconcile GAAP results to non-GAAP
results and the comparative 2006 results reflect adjustments made in Tenneco's
restated financial statements filed in August 2007.

EBIT (earnings before interest, taxes and minority interest) was $43 million
versus $39 million a year ago. Adjusted EBIT was $61 million, up 53% from $41
million in fourth quarter 2006. EBITDA (EBIT before depreciation and
amortization) was $98 million, up from $87 million the previous year. Adjusted
EBITDA was $116 million, a 30% increase over $89 million a year ago.

FOURTH QUARTER 2007 ADJUSTMENTS:

     -    Restructuring and restructuring related expenses of $18 million
          pre-tax, or 26-cents per diluted share primarily related to a
          previously announced facility closing;

     -    Charge of $21 million pre-tax, or 31-cents per diluted share, for
          refinancing a portion of the company's debt;

     -    Net tax expenses of $62 million, or $1.34 per diluted share, including
          $66 million in non-cash expenses to realign the European ownership
          structure and a net benefit of $4 million primarily related to
          adjustments for prior year income tax returns.

FOURTH QUARTER 2006 ADJUSTMENTS:

     -    Restructuring and restructuring related expenses of $6 million
          pre-tax, or 8-cents per diluted share;

     -    A reserve of $3 million pre-tax, or 4-cents per diluted share, for
          receivables from a former affiliate;

     -    Benefit of $7 million pre-tax, or 10-cents per diluted share, from
          replacing the defined benefit pension plans in the U.S. with an
          enhanced defined contribution plan;

     -    Tax benefits of $13 million or 28-cents per diluted share, related to
          an investment income tax credit in the Czech Republic and final
          adjustments related to prior year income tax returns.

"Tenneco delivered excellent results this quarter thanks to technology-driven
growth and our global geographic balance, particularly in expanding markets like
China and South America," said Gregg Sherrill, chairman and CEO, Tenneco. "A
relentless focus on working capital improvements drove strong cash performance
in the quarter. Our execution on managing accounts receivable and inventories
helped convert earnings into strong cash flow."

Fourth quarter revenues increased 29% to $1.565 billion versus $1.209 billion a
year ago. Substrate sales grew to $440 million from $297 million in fourth
quarter 2006. Excluding substrate sales and favorable currency, revenue was
$1.054 billion, up 16% from $912 million the previous year. The revenue increase
was driven by higher volumes on new diesel platforms in North America, volume
increases on key European emission control platforms and growth in China.

EBIT margin declined to 2.8% versus 3.2% in fourth quarter 2006, primarily due
to a 48% increase in substrate sales, higher restructuring costs and a lower
percentage of revenue generated from aftermarket sales, which typically carry
higher margins. These factors also negatively impacted gross margin, which was
14.3% compared with 15.7% in fourth quarter 2006. The negative impact of these
factors was partially offset by the sale of higher margin OE emission control
technologies in the quarter.

Adjusted EBIT as a percent of value-added sales (revenue excluding substrate
sales) grew to 5.4% from 4.4%, an indication that the company is realizing the
margin benefit from its advanced hot-end and diesel aftertreatment technologies.

Cash generated by operations in the quarter was $200 million, up significantly
from $138 million a year ago. The increase was driven by higher earnings and
working capital improvements. The company generated $175 million in cash from
working capital versus $130 million a year ago.

"Our ability to generate cash flow in the quarter helped us to end the year with
a 45% increase in cash from operations, resulting in nearly flat year-over-year
net debt" Sherrill said. "This was particularly outstanding given that we made
significant investments throughout the year to fund our business growth with
higher spending on engineering, capital expenditures and an emissions control
technology acquisition."



At quarter-end, debt net of cash balances was $1.186 billion, compared with
$1.183 billion at the end of fourth quarter 2006. Cash balances were $188
million versus $202 million the prior year. Total debt was $1.374 billion,
versus $1.385 billion a year ago. At the end of the quarter, the ratio of debt
net of cash balances to adjusted annual EBITDA was 2.4x, down from 2.9x at the
end of fourth quarter 2006.

Total steel costs in the quarter increased $17 million year-over-year. These
costs were offset by material substitutions, low-cost country sourcing, steel
cost recovery from customers and other cost reductions.

The rate of revenue growth in the quarter continued to outpace overhead spending
to support that growth. SGA&E (selling, general, administrative & engineering)
costs as a percent of sales decreased to 8.1% versus 8.7% a year ago despite an
increase in engineering spending to support technology development and future
new business launches.

NORTH AMERICA

     -    OE revenue was $592 million, up 63% from $363 million a year ago.
          Excluding substrate sales and currency, revenue was $342 million, a
          26% year-over-year increase from $272 million. The increase was driven
          by incremental volume from diesel pick-up truck platforms like the
          Ford SuperDuty, GM Duramax engine vehicles and International's medium
          duty commercial trucks. Emission control content on GM crossover
          vehicles, the Toyota Tundra and ride control business on GM platforms
          that include the Suburban, Yukon, Silverado, Sierra, Trailblazer and
          Envoy also drove the increase. The increase was partially offset by
          volume declines on existing platforms.

     -    Aftermarket revenue was $122 million, up 5% from $115 million in
          fourth quarter 2006. New business and increases in both ride control
          and exhaust sales drove the increase.

     -    EBIT for North America operations was $16 million versus $18 million
          in fourth quarter 2006. Fourth quarter 2007 EBIT includes $2 million
          in restructuring costs. Fourth quarter 2006 EBIT includes $3 million
          in restructuring costs, a $3 million reserve for receivables from a
          former affiliate and a $7 million benefit for the U.S. pension plan
          replacement. Adjusted for these items, EBIT was $18 million, up $1
          million year-over-year.

     -    The EBIT benefit from higher volumes on new emission and ride control
          platforms was mostly offset by:

               -    $5 million in net engineering spending due to customer
                    recovery timing;

               -    $2 million for inventory shrinkage on substrates at one
                    Mexican emissions control facility;

               -    $3 million in accelerated depreciation on OE service-part
                    equipment; and

               -    the impact of lower commercial vehicle ride control
                    production volumes.


EUROPE, SOUTH AMERICA AND INDIA

     -    OE revenue was $511 million, a 13% increase from $452 million a year
          ago. Excluding substrate sales and the impact of favorable currency,
          revenue was $337 million versus $285 million, an 18% increase. The
          increase was driven by higher volumes on platforms with hot-end and
          diesel aftertreatment technology like the Daimler Sprinter, the BMW 1
          and 3 Series and the Audi A4.

     -    Aftermarket revenue was $96 million, up from $90 million a year ago.
          Excluding favorable currency, revenue was $87 million. Lower exhaust
          sales more than offset increases in ride control sales.

     -    South America and India revenue increased to $96 million from $71
          million in fourth quarter 2006. Excluding substrate sales and the
          impact of favorable currency, revenue was $74 million compared with
          $63 million. The increase was due to higher OE volumes in South
          America.

     -    EBIT for Europe, South America and India was $19 million, up from $16
          million a year ago. Favorable currency benefited EBIT by $2 million.




     -    Adjusted EBIT was up 84% to $35 million from $19 million a year ago.
          The EBIT increase was driven by strong manufacturing performance and
          OE volume increases, which more than offset higher material costs and
          lower aftermarket emission control sales.

     -    Fourth quarter 2007 EBIT includes $16 million in restructuring and
          restructuring related costs and fourth quarter 2006 includes $3
          million in restructuring and restructuring related costs.

ASIA PACIFIC

     -    Asia revenue increased 35% to $98 million from $73 million a year ago.
          Excluding substrate sales and favorable currency, revenue was up 18%
          to $55 million from $47 million. The increase was due to growth in
          China with new OE business and higher OE volumes.

     -    Australia revenue increased 12% to $50 million compared with $45
          million in fourth quarter 2006. Excluding substrate sales and the
          impact of favorable currency, revenue was $37 million versus $40
          million a year ago, primarily the result of lower aftermarket sales.

     -    Asia Pacific EBIT was $8 million, a 59% increase over $5 million a
          year ago. Favorable currency benefited EBIT by $1 million. Operational
          efficiencies and strong OE volumes in China drove the EBIT increase.

FULL-YEAR 2007 RESULTS

Tenneco reported record high annual revenue of $6.2 billion, a 32% increase over
$4.7 billion in 2006. Substrate sales grew to $1.673 billion from $927 million
in 2007. Excluding substrate sales and favorable currency, revenue was up 15%.
New diesel aftertreatment business on pick-up truck platforms in North America,
growth in China and strong OE volumes in Europe drove the significant increase.

The company reported a net loss of $5 million, or 11-cents per diluted share,
compared with net income of $49 million, or $1.05 per diluted share in 2006.

Adjusted for the items below, including $66 million in non-cash tax charges to
realign the European ownership structure, net income was up 69% to $86 million,
or $1.82 per diluted share, from $51 million, or $1.12 per diluted share in
2006.

Full year EBIT was $252 million, a 28% increase over $196 million a year ago.
Adjusted EBIT was $282 million, a 25% increase from $225 million in 2006. 2007
EBITDA was $457 million, up from $380 million in 2006. Adjusted EBITDA was $487
million, a 19% increase from $409 million a year ago.

EBIT margin for the year declined to 4.1% versus 4.2% in 2006 due to an increase
in substrate sales and a lower percentage of revenue generated from aftermarket
sales, which typically carry higher margins. These factors also negatively
impacted gross margin, which was 15.8% compared with 18.1% in 2006. The negative
impact of these factors was partially offset by the sale of higher margin OE
emission control technologies.

Adjusted EBIT as a percent of value-added sales (revenue excluding substrate
sales) grew to 6.2% from 6.0%, which reflects the improved margin benefit from
sales of the company's advanced hot-end and diesel aftertreatment technologies.

SGA&E as a percent of sales for 2007 was 8.3%, a significant improvement from
9.8% in 2006.

The company benefited in 2007 from its geographic and customer balance.
Geographically, 53% of total 2007 revenue and 52% of EBIT was generated outside
North America with a growing share in expanding markets like China and Eastern
Europe.

"Tenneco performed exceptionally well in a year marked by industry challenges.
We profitably launched more than $1 billion in new OE business globally, the
majority of which featured advanced technology products and systems," Sherrill
said. "We executed on our global growth strategies by investing in growing
markets like Russia and China, and making strategic investments in engineering
and innovative technologies that are already generating new business. At the
same time, we improved our financial flexibility and successfully managed our
overhead costs."


OUTLOOK

Tenneco anticipates ongoing industry volatility in 2008. The company expects
that North America industry OE production volumes will be lower, Europe OE
volumes will remain relatively stable, and strong sales growth in expanding
markets like China, India and Brazil will continue.

In the first quarter, Tenneco expects higher year-over-year revenues in North
America given its market position and the anticipated benefit of incremental
sales from new OE emission control business it launched in 2007, which will be
at higher production levels compared to first quarter last year. In Europe, the
company also expects to benefit from its strong position in Eastern Europe and
Russia, where industry growth is predicted.

In 2007, Tenneco generated $5.1 billion in global original equipment revenues.
Adjusted for substrate sales, global original equipment value-added sales were
$3.4 billion. Tenneco estimates that its global original equipment revenues will
be approximately $5.5 billion in 2008 and $6.0 billion in 2009. Adjusted for
substrate sales, original equipment value-added sales are estimated to be
approximately $3.7 billion in 2008 and $4.1 billion in 2009.

The company expects the pricing environment for steel will increase gross steel
costs year-over-year by up to $40 million in 2008, which it anticipates fully
offsetting through cost reductions, manufacturing efficiencies, material
substitutions, low-cost country sourcing and customer recovery.

As part of its five year strategic vision, Tenneco projects it will achieve an
average compounded annual OE revenue growth rate of 11% to 13% between 2008 and
2012, primarily driven by tightening emission control regulations globally. This
projection reflects new business the company has been already awarded or expects
to win with light vehicle and commercial vehicle original equipment
manufacturers.

"Tenneco has a proven track-record of execution and implementing the right
strategies to be successful, even in tough markets," Sherrill said. "Given our
leading technology and engineering capabilities, favorable geographic and
customer balance, cost flexibility and a relentless focus on managing costs and
improving operations, Tenneco is well-positioned to address the industry
challenges in 2008 while capturing additional new business opportunities, which
will fuel our growth globally over the next five to seven years."

2008 ANNUAL MEETING

The Tenneco Board of Directors has scheduled the corporation's annual meeting of
shareholders for Tuesday, May 6, 2008 at 10:00 a.m. CDT. The meeting will be
held at the corporate headquarters, 500 North Field Drive, Lake Forest,
Illinois. The record date for shareholders to vote at the meeting is March 11,
2008.

Tenneco is a $6.2 billion manufacturing company with headquarters in Lake
Forest, Illinois and approximately 21,000 employees worldwide. Tenneco is one of
the world's largest designers, manufacturers and marketers of emission control
and ride control products and systems for the automotive original equipment
market and the aftermarket. Tenneco markets its products principally under the
Monroe(R), Walker(R), Gillet(TM) and Clevite(R)Elastomer brand names.

Revenue estimates in this release are based on OE manufacturers' programs that
have been formally awarded to the company; programs where Tenneco is highly
confident that it will be awarded business based on informal customer
indications consistent with past practices; Tenneco's status as supplier for the
existing program and its relationship with the customer; and the actual original
equipment revenues achieved by the company for each of the last several years
compared to the amount of those revenues that the company estimated it would
generate at the beginning of each year. These revenue estimates are also based
on anticipated vehicle production levels and pricing, including precious metals
pricing and certain actions to recover a portion of materials cost increases.
The revenue estimates assume that foreign currency exchange rates will remain
constant over the entire period.

This press release contains forward-looking statements. Words such as "hopes,"
"may," "expects," "anticipate," "will," and "outlook" and similar expressions
identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based
on the current expectations of the company (including its subsidiaries). Because
these forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, the company's
plans, actions and actual results could differ materially. Among the factors
that could cause these plans, actions and results to differ materially from
current expectations are:

(i) changes in automotive manufacturers' production rates and their actual and
forecasted requirements for the company's products;

(ii) the overall highly competitive nature of the automotive parts industry,
including pricing pressure from the company's OE customers and the loss of any
awards of business, or the failure to obtain new awards of business, from our
large customers, on which we are dependent for a substantial portion of our
revenues; for example, Ford, from whom the company derived more than 10% of its
2006 net sales, announced in 2006 a plan to significantly reduce the number of
its global suppliers. While the company currently believes that its relationship
with Ford will not be impacted by this plan, any significant reduction in sales
to Ford could have a material adverse effect on the company;

(iii) the company's resultant inability to realize the sales represented by its
awarded book of business which is based on anticipated pricing for the
applicable program over its life, and is subject to increases or decreases due
to changes in customer requirements, customer and consumer preferences, and the
number of vehicles actually produced by customers;



                                       -8-


(iv) increases in the costs of raw materials, including the company's ability to
successfully reduce the impact of any such cost increases through materials
substitutions, cost reduction initiatives, customer recovery and other methods;

(v) the cyclical nature of the global vehicular industry, including the
performance of the global aftermarket sector, and changes in consumer demand and
prices, including longer product lives of automobile parts and the cyclicality
of automotive production and sales of automobiles which include the company's
products, and the potential negative impact on the company's revenues and
margins from such products;

(vi) the company's continued success in cost reduction and cash management
programs and its ability to execute restructuring and other cost reduction plans
and to realize anticipated benefits from these plans;

(vii) the general political, economic and competitive conditions in markets and
countries where the company and its subsidiaries operate, including the strength
of other currencies relative to the U.S. dollar and currency fluctuations and
other risks associated with operating in foreign countries;

(viii) governmental actions, including the ability to receive regulatory
approvals and the timing of such approvals;

(ix) changes in capital availability or costs, including increases in the
company's costs of borrowing (i.e., interest rate increases), the amount of the
company's debt, the ability of the company to access capital markets and the
credit ratings of the company's debt;

(x) the cost and outcome of existing and any future legal proceedings, and
compliance with changes in regulations, including environmental regulations;

(xi) workforce factors such as strikes or labor interruptions;

(xii) the company's ability to develop and profitably commercialize new products
and technologies, and the acceptance of such new products and technologies by
the company's customers and the market;

(xiii) further changes in the distribution channels for the company's
aftermarket products, further consolidations among automotive parts customers
and suppliers, and product warranty costs;

(xiv) changes by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other accounting
regulatory bodies to authoritative generally accepted accounting principles or
policies;

(xv) acts of war, riots or terrorism, including, but not limited to the events
taking place in the Middle East, the current military action in Iraq and the
continuing war on terrorism, as well as actions taken or to be taken by the
United States or other governments as a result of further acts or threats of
terrorism, and the impact of these acts on economic, financial and social
conditions in the countries where the company operates; and

(xvi) the timing and occurrence (or non-occurrence) of transactions and events
which may be subject to circumstances beyond the control of the company and its
subsidiaries.

The company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to
reflect events or circumstances after the date of this press release. Additional
information regarding these risk factors and uncertainties is detailed from time
to time in the company's SEC filings, including but not limited to its report on
Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2006. Further information can be

(1)  Generally Accepted Accounting Principles

(2)  EBITDA represents income before interest expense, income taxes, minority
     interest and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is not a calculation
     based upon generally accepted accounting principles. The amounts included
     in the EBITDA calculation, however, are derived from amounts included in
     the historical statements of income data. In addition, EBITDA should not be
     considered as an alternative to net income or operating income as an
     indicator of the company's operating performance, or as an alternative to
     operating cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Tenneco has presented
     EBITDA because it regularly reviews EBITDA as a measure of the company's
     performance. In addition, Tenneco believes its investors utilize and
     analyze our EBITDA for similar purposes. Tenneco also believes EBITDA
     assists investors in comparing a company's performance on a consistent
     basis without regard to depreciation and amortization, which can vary
     significantly depending upon many factors. However, the EBITDA measure
     presented may not always be comparable to similarly titled measures
     reported by other companies due to differences in the components of the
     calculation.

(1)  Generally Accepted Accounting Principles

(2)  Tenneco presents the above reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP earnings
     measures primarily to reflect the results for the fourth quarters of 2007
     and 2006 in a manner that allows a better understanding of the results of
     operational activities separate from the financial impact of decisions made
     for the long-term benefit of the company. Adjustments similar to the ones
     reflected above have been recorded in earlier periods, and similar types of
     adjustments can reasonably be expected to be recorded in future periods.
     Using only the non-GAAP earnings measures to analyze earnings would have
     material limitations because its calculation is based on the subjective
     determinations of management regarding the nature and classification of
     events and circumstances that investors may find material. Management
     compensates for these limitations by utilizing both GAAP and non-GAAP
     earnings measures reflected above to understand and analyze the results of
     the business. The company believes investors find the non-GAAP information
     helpful in understanding the ongoing performance of operations separate
     from items that may have a disproportionate positive or negative impact on
     the company's financial results in any particular period.

(3)  EBITDA represents income before interest expense, income taxes, minority
     interest and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is not a calculation
     based upon generally accepted accounting principles. The amounts included
     in the EBITDA calculation, however, are derived from amounts included in
     the historical statements of income data. In addition, EBITDA should not be
     considered as an alternative to net income or operating income as an
     indicator of the company's operating performance, or as an alternative to
     operating cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Tenneco has presented
     EBITDA because it regularly reviews EBITDA as a measure of the company's
     performance. In addition, Tenneco believes its investors utilize and
     analyze our EBITDA for similar purposes. Tenneco also believes EBITDA
     assists investors in comparing a company's performance on a consistent
     basis without regard to depreciation and amortization, which can vary
     significantly depending upon many factors. However, the EBITDA measure
     presented may not always be comparable to similarly titled measures
     reported by other companies due to differences in the components of the
     calculation.

(4)  In August 2006, we announced that we were freezing future accruals under
     our U.S. defined benefit pension plans for substantially all our U.S.
     salaried and non-union hourly employees effective December 31, 2006. In
     lieu of those benefits, we are offering additional benefits under defined
     contribution plan.

(1)  Generally Accepted Accounting Principles

(2)  Tenneco presents the above reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP earnings
     measures primarily to reflect the results for 2007 and 2006 in a manner
     that allows a better understanding of the results of operational activities
     separate from the financial impact of decisions made for the long-term
     benefit of the company. Adjustments similar to the ones reflected above
     have been recorded in earlier periods, and similar types of adjustments can
     reasonably be expected to be recorded in future periods. Using only the
     non-GAAP earnings measures to analyze earnings would have material
     limitations because its calculation is based on the subjective
     determinations of management regarding the nature and classification of
     events and circumstances that investors may find material. Management
     compensates for these limitations by utilizing both GAAP and non-GAAP
     earnings measures reflected above to understand and analyze the results of
     the business. The company believes investors find the non-GAAP information
     helpful in understanding the ongoing performance of operations separate
     from items that may have a disproportionate positive or negative impact on
     the company's financial results in any particular period.

(3)  EBITDA represents income before interest expense, income taxes, minority
     interest and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is not a calculation
     based upon generally accepted accounting principles. The amounts included
     in the EBITDA calculation, however, are derived from amounts included in
     the historical statements of income data. In addition, EBITDA should not be
     considered as an alternative to net income or operating income as an
     indicator of the company's operating performance, or as an alternative to
     operating cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Tenneco has presented
     EBITDA because it regularly reviews EBITDA as a measure of the company's
     performance. In addition, Tenneco believes its investors utilize and
     analyze our EBITDA for similar purposes. Tenneco also believes EBITDA
     assists investors in comparing a company's performance on a consistent
     basis without regard to depreciation and amortization, which can vary
     significantly depending upon many factors. However, the EBITDA measure
     presented may not always be comparable to similarly titled measures
     reported by other companies due to differences in the components of the
     calculation.

(4)  Represents costs associated with changing new aftermarket customers from
     their prior suppliers to an inventory of our products. Although our
     aftermarket business regularly incurs changeover costs, we specifically
     identify in the table above the changeover costs that, based on the size or
     number of customers involved, we believe are of an unusual nature for the
     time period in which they were incurred.

(5)  In August 2006, we announced that we were freezing future accruals under
     our U.S. defined benefit pension plans for substantially all our U.S.
     salaried and non-union hourly employees effective December 31, 2006. In
     lieu of those benefits, we are offering additional benefits under defined
     contribution plan.

(6)  As disclosed in Tenneco's Form 10-K/A filed August 14, 2007, Tenneco
     restated its financial results for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2005
     and 2006 and for the quarters ended March 31, 2006 and 2007, June 30, 2006
     and September 30, 2006. The amounts presented in this table reflect the
     results of the restatement.

(1)  Tenneco presents the above reconciliation of revenues in order to reflect
     the trend in the company's sales, in various product lines and geographical
     regions, separately from the effects of doing business in currencies other
     than the U.S. dollar. Additionally, substrate sales which the company
     previously referred to as pass-through sales include precious metals
     pricing, which may be volatile. Substrate sales occur when, at the
     direction of its OE customers, Tenneco purchases catalytic converters or
     components thereof from suppliers, uses them in its manufacturing processes
     and sells them as part of the completed system. While Tenneco original
     equipment customers assume the risk of this volatility, it impacts reported
     revenue. Excluding substrate sales removes this impact. Tenneco uses this
     information to analyze the trend in revenues before these factors. Tenneco
     believes investors find this information useful in understanding period to
     period comparisons in the company's revenues.

     is a useful measure of Tenneco's credit position and progress toward
     reducing leverage. The calculation is limited in that the company may not
     always be able to use cash to repay debt on a dollar-for- dollar basis.

(2)  EBITDA represents income before interest expense, income taxes, minority
     interest and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is not a calculation
     based upon generally accepted accounting principles. The amounts included
     in the EBITDA calculation, however, are derived from amounts included in
     the historical statements of income data. In addition, EBITDA should not be
     considered as an alternative to net income or operating income as an
     indicator of the company's operating performance, or as an alternative to
     operating cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Tenneco Inc. has presented
     EBITDA because it regularly reviews EBITDA as a measure of the company's
     performance. In addition, Tenneco believes its investors utilize and
     analyze our EBITDA for similar purposes. Tenneco also believes EBITDA
     assists investors in comparing a company's performance on a consistent
     basis without regard to depreciation and amortization, which can vary
     significantly depending upon many factors. However, the EBITDA measure
     presented may not always be comparable to similarly titled measures
     reported by other companies due to differences in the components of the
     calculation.

(3)  Adjusted EBITDA is presented in order to reflect the results in a manner
     that allows a better understanding of operational activities separate from
     the financial impact of decisions made for the long term benefit of the
     company and other items impacting comparability between the periods.
     Similar adjustments to EBITDA have been recorded in earlier periods, and
     similar types of adjustments can reasonably be expected to be recorded in
     future periods. The company believes investors find the non-GAAP
     information helpful in understanding the ongoing performance of operations
     separate from items that may have a disproportionate positive or negative
     impact on the company's financial results in any particular period.

(4)  Tenneco presents the above reconciliation of the ratio of debt net of cash
     to annual adjusted EBITDA to show trends that investors may find useful in
     understanding the company's ability to service its debt. For purposes of
     this calculation, annual adjusted EBITDA is used as an indicator of the
     company's performance and debt net of cash is presented as an indicator of
     our credit position and progress toward reducing our financial leverage.
     This reconciliation is provided as supplemental information and not
     intended to replace the company's existing covenant ratios or any other
     financial measures that investors may find useful in describing the
     company's financial position. See notes (1), (2) and (3) for a description
     of the limitations of using debt net of cash, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA.

(1)  Generally Accepted Accounting Principles

(2)  Tenneco presents the above reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP earnings
     measures primarily to reflect the results for the fourth quarters of 2007
     and 2006 and full year 2006 and 2007 in a manner that allows a better
     understanding of our operational results compared to our value-added sales
     by excluding the impact of substrate sales, which generally carry lower
     margins. Using only the GAAP revenue measures to analyze Adjusted EBIT
     margin would have material limitations because the impact of lower-margin
     substrate sales can obscure the impact of Tenneco's higher technology value
     add hot-end emissions business. Management compensates for these
     limitations by utilizing both Adjusted EBIT as a percentage of Net Sales
     and Adjusted EBIT as a percentage of Value-Added Sales to understand and
     analyze the results of the business. The company believes investors find
     the non-GAAP information helpful in understanding the trends in Tenneco's
     EBIT margins.
