SCHEDULE 13G - TO BE INCLUDED IN STATEMENTS
FILED PURSUANT TO RULE 13d-1(b) or 13d-2(b)
Pursuant to instructions in Item 7 of Schedule 13G, this
Exhibit has been prepared to identify Fidelity International
Limited, Pembroke Hall, 42 Crow Lane, Hamilton, Bermuda, a
Bermudian joint stock company incorporated for an unlimited
duration by private act of the Bermuda Legislature (FIL) and an
investment adviser to various investment companies (the
"International Funds") and certain institutional investors, as
the beneficial owner of 1,700 shares or 0.06% of the common
stock outstanding of Twin Disc Incorporated owned by FASST.
Prior to June 30, 1980, FIL was a majority-owned subsidiary
of Fidelity Management & Research Company (Fidelity), a wholly-
owned subsidiary of FMR Corp. On that date, the shares of FIL
held by Fidelity were distributed, as a dividend, to the
shareholders of FMR Corp. FIL currently operates as an entity
independent of FMR Corp. and Fidelity. The International Funds
and FIL's other clients, with the exception of Fidelity and an
affiliated company of Fidelity, are non-U.S. entities.
A partnership controlled by Edward C. Johnson 3d and
members of his family owns shares of FIL voting stock with the
right to cast approximately 48.879% of the total votes which
may be cast by all holders of FIL voting stock. Mr. Johnson 3d
is Chairman of FMR Corp. and FIL. FMR Corp. and FIL are
separate and independent corporate entities. FMR Corp. and FIL
are managed independently and their Boards of Directors are
generally composed of different individuals. Their investment
decisions are made independently, and their clients are
different organizations.
FMR Corp. and FIL are of the view that they are not acting
as a "group" for purposes of Section 13(d) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (the "1934" Act) and that they are not
otherwise required to attribute to each other the "beneficial
ownership" of securities "beneficially owned" by the other
corporation within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under
the 1934 Act. Therefore, they are of the view that the shares
held by the other corporation need not be aggregated for
purposes of Section 13(d). However, FMR Corp. is making this
filing on a voluntary basis as if all of the shares are
beneficially owned by FMR Corp. and FIL on a joint basis.
FIL may continue to have the International Funds or other
accounts purchase shares subject to a number of factors,
including, among others, the availability of shares for sale at
what FIL considers to be reasonable prices and other investment
opportunities that may be available to the International Funds.
FIL intends to review continuously the equity position of
the International Funds and other accounts in the Company.
Depending upon its future evaluations of the business and
prospects of the Company and upon other developments,
including, but not limited to, general economic and business
conditions and money market and stock market conditions, FIL
may determine to cease making additional purchases of shares or
to increase or decrease the equity interest in the Company by
acquiring additional shares, or by disposing of all or a
portion of the shares.
FIL does not have a present plan or proposal which relates
to or would result in (i) an extraordinary corporate
transaction, such as a merger, reorganization, liquidation, or
sale or transfer of a material amount of assets involving the
Company or any of its subsidiaries, (ii) any change in the
Company's present Board of Directors or management, (iii) any
material changes in the Company's present capitalization or
dividend policy or any other material change in the Company's
business or corporate structure, (iv) any change in the
Company's charter or by-laws, or (v) the Company's common stock
becoming eligible for termination of its registration pursuant
to Section 12(g)(4) of the 1934 Act.
FIL, FMR Corp., through its control of Fidelity, and FASST
each has sole power to vote and to dispose of the 1,700 shares
held by FASST.
