ITEM 10 -	CERTIFICATION:

	By signing below I certify that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, the securities referred to above were acquired and held in the ordinary course of business and were not acquired and are not held for the purpose of or with the effect of changing or influencing the control of the issuer of the securities and were not acquired and are not held in connection with or as a participant in any transaction having that purpose or effect.

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 is deemed to have no voting power, but may have shared dispositive power, with respect to the 2,751,415 shares held in the Trust as of December 31, 2006. 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.

SIGNATURE

After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and correct.
