(Check box if appropriate) (a) The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of this form could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense; |X| (b) The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report on Form 10-K, Form 20-F, 11-K or Form N-SAR, or portion thereof will be filed on or before the fifteenth calendar day following the prescribed due date; or the subject quarterly report or transition report on Form 10-Q, or portion thereof will be filed on or before the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date; and (c) The accountant's statement or other exhibit required by Rule 12b-25(c) has been attached if applicable. PART III - NARRATIVE State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 10-K and Form 10-KSB, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q and Form 10-QSB, N-SAR, or the transition report or portion thereof could not be filed within the prescribed period. On June 7, 1999, Harnischfeger Industries, Inc. (the "Company") and its domestic operating subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. On October 27, 1999, the Company announced its commitment to sell or otherwise dispose of its Pulp and Paper Machinery segment. A hearing before the Bankruptcy Court to approve a Sale Order with respect to the sale of major parts of the segment began on January 19, 2000 and is scheduled to continue on February 1, 2000. Assessing the effects on the Company's financial statements from the Chapter 11 filing, the treatment of the Pulp and Paper Machinery segment as a discontinued operation, the actions to sell assets of the Pulp and Paper Machinery segment, and other developments has caused the preparation of the Form 10-K to take longer than anticipated.

[X] Yes [ ] No If so: attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made. See Exhibit A Harnischfeger Industries, Inc. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Name of Registrant as specified in charter) has caused this notification to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized. Date: January 31, 2000 By: /s/ Herbert S. Cohen ------------------------------- ------------------------------ Vice President, Controller and Chief Accounting Officer INSTRUCTION: The form may be signed by an executive officer of the registrant or by any other duly authorized representative. The name and title of the person signing the form shall be typed or printed beneath the signature. If the statement is signed on behalf of the registrant by an authorized representative (other than an executive officer), evidence of the representative's authority to sign on behalf of the registrant shall be filed with the form. ATTENTION - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Intentional misstatements or omissions of fact constitute Federal Criminal Violations (See 18 U.S.C. 1001). - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EXHIBIT A TO FORM 12b-25 HARNISCHFEGER INDUSTRIES, INC. On June 7, 1999, the Company and its domestic operating subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. On October 27, 1999, the Company announced its commitment to sell or otherwise dispose of its Pulp and Paper Machinery segment. The earnings statement for fiscal 1999 will reflect the Company's Pulp and Paper Machinery segment as a discontinued operation as of October 31, 1999. Accordingly, the results of operations will reflect the Company's continuing mining equipment businesses. The results of operations will also reflect significant losses recorded in fiscal 1999 related to: losses from and loss on sale of discontinued operations; increased valuation allowances with respect to tax assets; and non-recurring and bankruptcy related charges and expenses. Because the Company has not completed its assessment of the effects of all of these matters, it cannot provide a reasonable estimate of all of the effects at this time. -----END PRIVACY-ENHANCED MESSAGE-----
