PART I
------

ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
-----------------------------
(a) General development of business.

Pall Corporation, incorporated in July 1946, and its subsidiaries
(hereinafter collectively called "the Company" unless the context requires
otherwise) is a leading supplier of fine filters, principally made by the
Company using its proprietary filter media, and other fluid clarification
and separations equipment for the removal of solid, liquid and gaseous
contaminants from a wide variety of liquids and gases.

The Company serves customers in two principal markets: Life Sciences
(formerly Health Care) and Industrial. The two principal markets are further
divided into five sub-segments: Blood and Bio-Pharmaceuticals (which
comprise the Life Sciences business) and General Industrial, Aerospace and
Microelectronics (which comprise the Industrial business). Reference is made
to pages 38 and 39 of the Annual Report to Shareholders.

During the past five years, the Company has continued its development and
sale of fluid clarification and separations products in a wide variety of
markets.

(b) Financial information about market segment information.

Reference is made to page 40 of the Annual Report to Shareholders.

(c) Narrative description of business.

The Company is a specialty materials and engineering company with the
broadest-based filtration, separations and purification capabilities in the
world. Its proprietary products are used to discover, develop and produce
pharmaceuticals, produce safe drinking water, protect hospital patients,
enhance the quality and efficiency of manufacturing processes, keep
equipment running efficiently and to protect the environment. The Company
actively pursues only those applications in which Pall products can make a
substantial difference to the customer. The products sold are principally
filters made with proprietary Pall filter media produced by chemical film
casting, melt-blowing of polymer fibers, papermaking and metallurgical
processes. Metal and plastic housings for its filters and a wide variety of
appurtenant devices, are also made. Competition is intense in all of the
Company's markets and includes many large and small companies in its global
markets, however no one company has a significant presence in all of the
Company's markets.

Life Sciences business:

Blood:

Includes sales of disposable blood filtration and cardiovascular filtration
products primarily to blood centers and hospitals. For information about the
Blood market, reference is made to the sections titled "Pall Life Sciences"
on pages 1, 4 and 5 and the "Review of Market Segments and Geographies" on
page 18 of the Annual Report to Shareholders.

BioPharmaceuticals:

The BioPharmaceuticals market includes sales of separation systems and
disposable filters primarily to pharmaceutical, biotechnology and laboratory
companies. For information about the BioPharmaceuticals market, reference is
made to the section titled "Pall Life Sciences" on pages 1, 4 and 5 of the
Annual Report to Shareholders.





3


Sales in the Blood and BioPharmaceuticals markets are made through the
Company's own personnel and through distributors. Backlog information is
omitted, as it is not considered meaningful to an understanding of these
portions of the Company's business.

The Company feels that safety, efficacy, ease of use, technical support, as
well as price, are the principal competitive factors in this business,
although economy of use is important.

The Company believes that its principal competitors in the Life Sciences
markets include Millipore, Baxter, Sartorius, CUNO, Asahi Medical, Maco
Pharma, Terumo and Fresenius.

Industrial business:

General Industrial:

Included in this diverse market are sales of filters, coalescers and
separation systems for hydraulic, fuel and lubrication systems on
manufacturing equipment across many industries as well as to producers of
oil, gas, electricity, chemicals, food and beverages, municipal water and
paper. For information about the General Industrial sub-market, reference is
made to the section titled "Pall Industrial" on pages 1 and 4 of the Annual
Report to Shareholders. Backlog at July 28, 2001 was approximately
$60,142,000 and is equal to about two months of sales. The Company's sales
to General Industrial customers are made through Company personnel, through
distributors and manufacturers' representatives. The Company believes that
product performance and quality, and service to the customer, as well as
price, are the principal competitive factors in this market.

Aerospace:

The Aerospace market includes sales of filtration, fluid monitoring
equipment and shipboard water/waste water filtration to the aerospace
industry for use on commercial and military aircraft, ships and land-based
vehicles. Commercial and Military sales represented 52% and 41%,
respectively of total Aerospace sales. For information about the Aerospace
market, reference is made to the section titled "Pall Industrial" on pages 1
and 4 and "Review of Market Segments and Geographies" on page 18 of the
Annual Report to Shareholders. The Company's products are sold to customers
in this sub-segment through its own personnel, and through distributors.
Backlog at July 28, 2001 was approximately $73,202,000 and is equal to about
six months sales. The Company believes that performance and quality of
product and service, as well as price, are determinative in most sales.

Microelectronics:

Included in this market are sales of disposable filtration products to
producers of semiconductors, computer terminals, fiber optics, disc drives,
thin film rigid discs and photographic film. For information about the
Microelectronics market, reference is made to the section titled "Pall
Industrial" on pages 1 and 4 of the Annual Report to Shareholders. The
Company's products are sold to customers in this segment through its own
personnel, through distributors and manufacturers' representatives. Backlog
at July 28, 2001 was approximately $10,487,000. The Company believes that
performance and quality of product and service, as well as price, are
determinative in most sales.

The principal competitors in the Industrial market are US Filter/Vivendi, CUNO,
Mykrolis, Ronnigen-Petter, Fuji, Donaldson, Parker Hannifin, Hydac, Schroeder,
Taisei and ESCO Technologies Inc.

For information about Pall proprietary products sold in all five of the above
sub-segments, reference is made to pages 7-15 of the Annual Report to
Shareholders.

The following comments relate to the five sub-segments discussed above:

Raw materials:



4

Most raw materials used by the Company are available from multiple sources of
supply. A limited number of materials are proprietary products of major chemical
companies. The Company believes that it could find satisfactory substitutes for
these materials if they should become unavailable, and has in fact done so
several times in the past.

Patents:

The Company owns a broad range of patents covering its filter media, filter
designs and other products, but it considers these to be mainly defensive, and
relies on its proprietary manufacturing methods and engineering skills. However,
it does act against infringers when it believes such action is economically
justified.



The following comments relate to the Company's business in general:

(a) With limited exceptions, research activities conducted by the Company
are company-sponsored. Such expenditures totaled $56,041,000 in 2001,
$51,434,000 in 2000 and $56,490,000 in 1999.

(b) There was no one customer to whom sales were made totaling 10% or more
of consolidated sales in fiscal 2001, 2000 or 1999.

(c) The Company is in substantial compliance with federal, state and local
laws regulating the discharge of materials into the environment or
otherwise relating to the protection of the environment. To date,
compliance with environmental matters has not had a material effect
upon the Company's capital expenditures or competitive position.

The Company continues the cleanup of contaminated water at its Ann
Arbor, Michigan facility that began in fiscal 1998. In February 2000,
the state of Michigan filed a court motion seeking approximately
$4,900,000 in penalties for alleged violations of a consent judgment
entered into between Gelman Sciences Inc., a subsidiary of the Company,
and the state concerning the cleanup. In July 2000, the court took the
matter of penalties "under advisement" but held that Gelman was not in
violation of the consent judgment. The court issued a remediation
enforcement order requiring Gelman to complete the cleanup within five
years under a court approved plan. Also in July 2000, the Company
received funds aggregating approximately $5,000,000 from its insurance
carrier as final settlement of its insurance obligation. These funds
were added to the Company's reserve for estimated future environmental
remediation costs and in the fourth quarter of 2001 the Company
reviewed and increased this reserve by $8,200,000. The Company's
balance sheet at July 28, 2001 reflects $18,200,000 of accruals related
to environmental matters, mainly pertaining to the Ann Arbor site. In
the opinion of management, the Company is in substantial compliance
with applicable environmental laws. Because regulatory standards under
environmental laws are becoming increasingly stringent, there can be no
assurance that future developments will not cause the Company to incur
material environmental liabilities or costs. For a further description
of the environmental issues see Item 3, Legal Proceedings.

(d) At July 28, 2001, the Company employed approximately 9,400 persons.


(d) Financial information about geographic areas.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

In February 1988, an action was filed in the Circuit Court for Washtenaw County,
Michigan ("Court") by the State of Michigan ("State") against Gelman Sciences
Inc. ("Gelman")(a subsidiary acquired by the Company in February 1997)
requesting reimbursement of costs the State had expended in investigating
contamination near Gelman's Ann Arbor facility, which the State alleged was
caused by Gelman's disposal of waste water from its manufacturing process.
Pursuant to a consent judgment entered into by Gelman and the State in October
1992 (amended September 1996 and October 1999), which resolved that litigation,
Gelman is remediating the contamination without admitting wrongdoing. In
February 2000, the State Assistant Attorney General filed a Motion to Enforce
Consent Judgement in the Court seeking approximately $4,900,000 in stipulated
penalties for the alleged violations of the consent judgment and additional
injunctive relief. Gelman disputed these assertions. In July 2000, the Court
took the matter of penalties "under advisement" and held that Gelman was not in
violation of the Consent Judgement. The Court issued a Remediation Enforcement
Order requiring Gelman to complete the cleanup within five years under a Court
approved plan. Also during the fourth quarter of 2000, the Company received
funds aggregating approximately $5,000,000 from its insurance carrier as final
settlement of its insurance obligations for the Gelman remediation. These funds
were added to the reserve for environmental matters, principally to cover
revised estimates for the future costs of remediation and ongoing legal
expenses. In the fourth quarter of 2001 the Company recorded a charge of
$8,200,000 for future environmental remediation costs. The reserve of nearly
$18,200,000 of accruals reflected in the Company's balance sheet at July 28,
2001 relates mainly to the aforementioned proceedings. In the opinion of
management, the Company is in substantial compliance with applicable
environmental laws and its current accruals for environmental remediation are
adequate.

Reference is also made to Contingencies and Commitments on page 37 of the Annual
Report to Shareholders.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.
There were no matters submitted to a vote of shareholders during the fourth
quarter of fiscal year 2001.
