REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Pension Fund Investment Committee

Navistar, Inc.

Participants and Administrator of Navistar, Inc. 401(k) Plan for Represented Employees

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the Navistar, Inc. 401(k) Plan for Represented Employees (the “Plan”) as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2008. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2008, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The schedule of assets (held at end of year) as of December 31, 2008 and schedule of delinquent participant contributions for the year ended December 31, 2008 are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are supplementary information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. These supplemental schedules are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

Navistar, Inc. 401(k) Plan for Represented Employees

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2008 and 2007

 

 

NOTE A - DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

The following description of the Navistar, Inc. 401(k) Plan for Represented Employees (f/k/a International Truck and Engine Corporation 401(k) Plan for Represented Employees) (the “Plan”) is provided for general information purposes only. Participants should refer to the Plan document for more complete information.

General

The Plan is sponsored by International Truck and Engine Corporation (the “Company”), to provide savings and retirement benefits for certain eligible represented employees of the Company and of certain affiliates participating under the Plan. Effective as of February 27, 2008, the Company’s name was changed to Navistar, Inc. and thereafter is the “Company”. Also effective February 27, 2008, the Plan’s name was changed to Navistar, Inc. 401(k) Plan for Represented Employees. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”), as amended.

Eligibility

The Plan is offered to eligible Company employees who are represented by a labor organization under a collective bargaining agreement who have met certain seniority or service requirements under the terms of the respective bargaining agreements. The Plan was established on October 1, 1991.

Contributions

Participant contributions may be made to the Plan only on a pretax basis and are subject to annual maximum limits equal to the lesser of 25% of the participant’s eligible compensation or a prescribed Internal Revenue Service dollar amount. Those participants who were age 50 or over during the Plan year were permitted to contribute additional amounts on a pretax basis. Subject to Company approval, certain eligible employees are allowed to make rollover contributions to the Plan if such contributions satisfy applicable regulations. Such employees are not required to be participants for any other purpose than their rollover account; however, no pretax salary reduction contributions may be made until such time as such employee would otherwise become eligible to and does elect participation in the Plan. Participant salary reduction contributions and rollover contributions are fully vested immediately.

For the 2008 and 2007 Plan years, certain collective bargaining agreements provide for an employer retirement contribution. This contribution is employer-provided and is allocated among eligible members of the applicable bargaining unit based on the participant’s age at year-end and eligible compensation. Certain collective bargaining agreements also provide for an employer matching contribution of 25% of the first 6% of eligible compensation deferred by the

participant. Effective January 1, 2007, a new collective bargaining group entered this Plan, which provides for an employer match of 100% of the first 4% of eligible compensation deferred by the participant.

The employer retirement and matching contributions credited to an eligible participant’s account are subject to one of three vesting schedules, depending upon the collective bargaining agreement. Non-vested contributions are forfeited when a participant retires or terminates service. Such forfeitures are used to offset future Company contributions. At December 31, 2008 and 2007, forfeited non-vested accounts totaled $90,165 and $60,030, respectively. For the Plan year ended December 31, 2008, $50,000 of forfeitures were used to offset Company contributions.

Investment Options

Participants direct the investment of their account balances and future contributions. Investment options during 2008 and 2007 consisted of funds classified as registered investment companies, common and collective funds, U.S. Government securities or Navistar International Corporation (“Navistar”) common stock.

Participant Accounts

Individual accounts are maintained for each Plan participant. Contributions and assets allocated to a specific investment fund are commingled with those of other participants and are invested in accordance with the nature of the specific fund. Realized and unrealized appreciation and depreciation, dividends and interest are allocated to participants based on their proportionate share of the funds. Fund managers’ fees are charged to participants’ accounts as a reduction of the return earned on each investment option. All other administrative costs related to the Plan are paid directly by the Company.

Participant Loans

Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to the lesser of 50% of their total account balance or $50,000. Loan transactions are treated as a transfer between the applicable investment funds and the loan fund. Loan terms range from one to five years, with the exception of loans made for the purchase of a principal residence, which may be repaid in installments over a period of up to ten years. The loans are secured by the balance in the participant’s account and bear interest at a rate based on the yield on Federal government securities of equivalent maturity plus two percentage points for loans made before April 1, 1997, and at a rate equal to prime plus one percentage point for loans made on or after April 1, 1997.

NOTE A - DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN - Continued

 

Payment of Benefits

Participants may request either an in-service or hardship withdrawal of certain of their account assets. Participants may only withdraw authorized pretax salary reduction contributions after attaining age 59-1/2, or on a hardship basis prior to attaining age 59-1/2. The employer retirement contributions, matching contributions and investment earnings thereon are not eligible for in-service withdrawal. The amount of any withdrawal, distribution or loan is first charged against the participant’s interest in Plan investments other than the Navistar Stock Fund on a pro rata basis. Any subsequent distributions of an account invested in the Navistar Stock Fund will be made in the form of Navistar common stock.

Vesting

Participants vest in employer contributions in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth by the participant’s respective collective bargaining agreement. A participant’s vested account is distributable at the time a participant separates from service with the Company, suffers a total and permanent disability or dies. When the participant terminates employment, the vested portion of the account will be distributed if the asset value is $1,000 or less. If the asset value is more than $1,000 but not more than $5,000, and the participant has not elected to have such distribution paid directly to an eligible retirement plan specified by the participant in a direct rollover, or to receive the distribution directly in accordance with the provisions of the Plan, then the Plan will pay the distribution in a direct rollover to an individual retirement plan as designated by the Plan. If the asset value is more than $5,000, the participant has the option of receiving the account upon separation or deferring receipt until no later than age 65. Accounts are distributed in a single sum.

 

 

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The financial statements of the Plan are presented on the accrual basis of accounting.

As described in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Staff Position (“FSP”), FSP AAG INV-1 and Statement of Position (“SOP”) 94-4-1, “Reporting of Fully Benefit-Responsive Investment Contracts Held by Certain Investment Companies Subject to the AICPA Investment Company Guide and Defined Contribution Health and Welfare and Pension Plans” (the “FSP”), investment contracts held by a defined contribution plan are required to be reported at fair value. However, contract value is the relevant measurement attribute for that portion of the net assets

Basis of Presentation - Continued

 

available for benefits of a defined contribution plan attributable to fully benefit-responsive investment contracts because contract value is the amount participants would receive if they were to initiate permitted transactions under the terms of the plan. The Plan invests in investment contracts through a collective trust that is part of Navistar, Inc. Master Trust (f/k/a International Truck and Engine Corporation Defined Contribution Plans Master Trust) (the “Master Trust”). As required by the FSP, the statements of net assets available for benefits present the proportionate share of the fair value of the investment held by the Master Trust as well as the adjustment of the investment in the Master Trust from fair value to contract value relating to investment contracts. The statement of changes in net assets available for benefits is prepared on a contract-value basis.

Adoption of New Accounting Standard

As of January 1, 2008, the Plan adopted the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The adoption of SFAS No. 157 did not have a material impact on the Plan’s financial statements. The disclosures required by this statement are included in Investment Valuation and Note C – Master Trust.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and changes therein, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Risks and Uncertainties

Investment securities, in general, are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, credit and overall market volatility. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect the amounts reported in the financial statements.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

 

Investment Valuation

Effective January 1, 2008 the Plan adopted SFAS 157 which:

 

   

Defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, and establishes a framework for measuring fair value,

   

Establishes a hierarchy of fair value measurement based upon the observability of inputs used to value assets and liabilities,

   

Requires consideration of nonperformance risk, and

   

Expands disclosures about the methods used to measure fair value

SFAS No. 157 establishes a three-level hierarchy of measurements based upon the reliability of observable and unobservable inputs used to arrive at fair value. Observable inputs are independent market data, while unobservable inputs reflect the Plan management’s assumptions about valuation. Depending on the inputs, the Plan classifies each fair value measurement as follows:

 

   

Level 1 – based upon quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets,

   

Level 2 – based upon quoted prices for similar instruments, prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, or model-derived valuations all of whose significant inputs are observable, and

   

Level 3 – based upon one or more significant unobservable inputs

In accordance with SFAS No. 157, Plan management uses the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate fair value of investments:

The Plan’s investment in the Master Trust is presented at fair value, which has been determined based on the fair value of the underlying investments of the Master Trust.

The investments held by the Master Trust are valued as follows:

U.S. Government securities: Valued at the closing price reported on the active market on which the security is traded.

Wrapped bonds: Valued using the market approach discounting methodology, which incorporates the difference between current market level rates for contract level wrap fees and the wrap fee being charged. The difference is calculated as a dollar value and discounted by the prevailing interpolated swap rate as of period end.

Investment Valuation - Continued

 

Common and collective funds: Valued at the net asset value (“NAV”) provided by the administrator of the fund. The NAV is based on the value of the underlying assets owned by the fund, minus its liabilities, and then divided by the number of shares outstanding. The NAV’s unit price is quoted on a private market that is not active.

Registered investment companies (mutual funds): Valued at the NAV of shares held by the plan at year end, which is obtained from an active market.

Common stock: Valued at the closing price reported on the active market on which the security is traded.

See Note C – Master Trust for the Master Trust’s investments by level within the fair value hierarchy as of December 31, 2008.

Participant loans: Valued at their outstanding balances, which approximate market value.

Participant Withdrawals

As of December 31, 2008 and 2007, there were no benefits that were due to former participants who have withdrawn from participation in the Plan. Benefits are recorded when paid.

Administrative Fees

Most administrative expenses of the Plan are paid by the Company.

Transfers

Transfers between the Plan and the other plans participating in the Master Trust occur when a participant incurs a change in job status or a job transfer to another affiliate that makes the participant ineligible to participate in their current plan and requires the transfer of their account balance to another plan within the Master Trust for which they are eligible. During 2008, net transfers of $693,098 were transferred from the Plan for such changes to other plans within the Master Trust.

 

 

NOTE C - MASTER TRUST

All of the Plan’s investment assets are held in a trust account at JPMorgan Chase Bank (the “Trustee”) and consist of a divided interest in an investment account of the Master Trust, a master trust established by the Company and administered by the Trustee. Use of the Master Trust permits the commingling of Plan assets with the assets of other defined contribution plans sponsored by the Company and its affiliated companies for investment and administrative purposes. Although assets of all plans are commingled in the Master Trust, the Trustee maintains supporting records for the purpose of allocating the net gain or loss of the investment account to the participating plans. The net investment income of the investment assets is allocated by the Trustee to each participating plan based on the relationship of the interest of each plan to the total of the interests of the participating plans.

The Company failed to file its financial results for fiscal year 2005 with the Securities and Exchange Commission on a timely basis. Because of the delay, participants were not allowed to acquire additional shares of Navistar common stock through the 401(k) plans. However, participants were allowed to sell shares of Navistar common stock if they elected to do so. The

suspension of participants’ ability to purchase shares of Navistar common stock should have been effective March 1, 2006, but the restriction was not placed into effect until April 6, 2006. Accordingly, participants who may have purchased Navistar common stock during the period March 1, 2006 through April 6, 2006, were notified by letter that the Company intended to have a rescission offer extended to them, and that they were not required to take any action with respect to the Navistar common stock at that time.

In conducting an analysis of the scope of the rescission offer, it was determined that the group of individuals covered by all 401(k) type plans offered by the Plan Sponsor who actually suffered a “loss” on those shares of Navistar common stock purchased during the restricted period consisted of 127 individuals whose total loss was $47,875. Of this amount, losses among five individuals totaled $43,927. The de minimus nature of these losses significantly reduced the concerns that were the principal basis for the initial conclusion to conduct a rescission offer. A rescission offer was not conducted, but instead the Company made restorative payments, with interest, to the affected individuals’ 401(k) accounts during 2008

Navistar appointed Fiduciary Counselors, Inc. (“Fiduciary Counselors”) as the independent fiduciary of the respective Navistar common stock funds under the Plan. This action was taken to ensure that decisions regarding the availability of Navistar common stock as an investment option under the Plan are made by a fiduciary with no ties to Navistar. Fiduciary Counselors informed Navistar that, as a result of the uncertainty caused by the absence of audited financial statements, it had determined that the Navistar common stock investment option in the Plan will be closed to new purchases until further notice. Fiduciary Counselors had indicated that once Navistar issues up-to-date audited financial statements, it will review its decision and determine whether participants and beneficiaries in the Plan should once again have the opportunity to purchase Navistar common stock through the Plan.

In a letter dated September 2, 2008, Fiduciary Counselors notified all plan participants that the Navistar Stock Investment Option would be reopened to new investments beginning September 11, 2008.

The Company filed its annual report (Form 10-K) for fiscal 2005 on December 10, 2007 and then filed its annual report (Form 10-K) for fiscal 2007 on May 29, 2008, which then made the Company current with its filings of its annual audited financial statements. On December 30, 2008, the Company filed its annual report (Form 10-K) for 2008. The filing was followed by an amended filing on March 31, 2009. Financial results were filed on March 11, 2009, and June 9, 2009, for the Company’s fiscal quarters ended January, 31, 2009 and April 30, 2009, respectively.

NOTE E - TAX STATUS

The Plan obtained its latest determination letter dated September 17, 2002, in which the Internal Revenue Service stated that the Plan, as then designed, was in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”). The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter. However, the Plan administrator believes that, in all material respects, the Plan is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC. Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been included in the Plan’s financial statements.

 

 

NOTE F - PLAN TERMINATION

Although the Company expects to continue the Plan indefinitely, the Company, at its discretion, reserves the right to amend, modify, suspend or terminate the Plan, provided that no such action shall deprive any person of any rights to contributions made under the Plan. If the Plan is terminated, the interest of each participant in the funds will be distributed to such participant or his or her beneficiary at the time prescribed by the Plan terms and ERISA. If the Plan is terminated, Plan participants will become fully vested in any funds allocated to them.

 

 

NOTE G - RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Certain Master Trust investments are shares of mutual funds managed by JPMorgan. JPMorgan Retirement Plan Services is the record keeper as defined by the Master Trust and, therefore, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions. Also qualifying as party-in-interest transactions are transactions relating to participant loans and Navistar common stock. Fees paid by the Plan for investment management services are computed as a basis point reduction of the return earned on each investment option, and are included in net earnings of the Master Trust.

 

 

NOTE H - DELINQUENT PARTICIPANT CONTRIBUTIONS

During the plan year ended December 31, 2008, there was a deemed loan made to the Company when contributions and interest related to a late participant contribution in 2008 were not remitted to the employee’s account maintained by the custodian in the time frame mandated by the Department of Labor regulations. The company has since remitted the contributions and accrued interest.
