           On October 15, 2003, IR entered into a Purchase Agreement with
Timken and Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated (the "Underwriter") with respect
to the sale by IR and the purchase by the Underwriter of all of IR's 9,395,973

the purchase by the Underwriter of 3,500,000 shares of Timken Common Stock

           Following execution and delivery of the Purchase Agreement, the
Underwriter will make a public offering of the IR Shares and the Timken Shares
at an initial public offering price of $15.85. Timken has filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission shelf registration statements covering the
registration of the IR Shares and the Timken Shares under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended, and will file a prospectus relating to the
above-referenced public offering with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

           The Underwriter's obligation to consummate the purchase of the IR
Shares and Timken Shares is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions
set forth in the Purchase Agreement, and is anticipated to occur on October 20,
2003, or such other date not later than ten business days thereafter as shall
be agreed upon by the Underwriter, Timken and IR.
