ITEM 4 - OWNERSHIP:
The following information is as of December 31, 2002:
(a) Amount Beneficially Owned: 2,440,379 shares*
(b) Percent of Class: 19.99*
(c) Number of shares to which such person has:
(i) sole power to vote or to direct the vote 1,055,750
(ii) shared power to vote or to direct the vote -0-
(iii) sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition of 12,300
(iv) shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition of 1,410,779
*Of the total shares of Common Stock reported herein, 1,015,500 shares
are held in a pension plan trust account opened on June 13, 2000 under
the plan name of "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
1,384,629 shares held in the Trust as of December 31, 200 2. 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.
