"Non-Contributory Pension Plan for Employees of Mine Safety Appliances Company." The account was established under that certain Trust Agreement dated April 1, 1992 by and between Mine Safety Appliances Company and Pittsburgh National Bank (now, PNC Bank, National Association) for which PNC Bank, National Association serves as Directed Trustee. *On June 4,1996, the Mine Safety Appliances Company Stock Compensation Trust (the "Trust"), of which PNC Bank, National Association, acts as Trustee, purchased 600,000 shares of common stock, no par value, of Mine Safety Appliances Company (the "Company"). The purchase price for such common stock was paid for by a loan from the Company to the Trustee as evidenced by a promissory note. The Trust was established and the Company's common stock so purchased to provide assurance of the availability of the shares of the Company's common stock necessary to satisfy certain obligations of the Company and its subsidiaries under certain designated non-qualified employee plans, in accordance with a Trust Agreement effective as of June 1, 1996. On May 25, 2000, the Company declared a 3-for-1 stock split thereby increasing the number of total shares in the Trust from 600,000 to 1,800,000. Pursuant to this amendment to Schedule 13G, PNC Bank, National Association, as Trustee of the Trust, reports that it has no voting power, but may have shared dispositive power, with respect to the 1,639,320 shares held in the Trust as of December 31, 2000. The filing of this amendment does not constitute, and should not be construed as, an admission that either PNC Bank, National Association, as Trustee of the Trust, or the Trust beneficially owns such securities. In connection therewith, the Trustee and the Trust disclaim beneficial ownership of such securities.
