Tenneco In Compliance With NYSE Listing Standards
Lake Forest, Illinois, June 9, 2009 – Tenneco Inc. (NYSE: TEN) announced that the company was notified by NYSE Regulation that it is in compliance with the NYSE continued listing requirement that pertains to market capitalization and stockholder’s equity, effective June 1, 2009.
