ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS

         On June 13, 2000, Wynn's International, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the "Company"), announced that it entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger,
dated as of June 13, 2000 (the "Merger Agreement"), with Parker-Hannifin
Corporation, an Ohio corporation (the "Purchaser"), and WI Holding Inc., a
Delaware corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Purchaser ("Merger Sub").
The Merger Agreement provides for the commencement by Merger Sub of a tender
offer to purchase for cash all of the outstanding shares of common stock, par
value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the "Shares") at a price of $23.00 per
share, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Annex I to the
Merger Agreement (the "Tender Offer") and, following the purchase of the Shares
pursuant to the Tender Offer, a merger (the "Merger") of Merger Sub into the
Company. In addition, the Company agreed to cause each then outstanding option
to purchase Shares to be acquired by the Company in consideration of the payment
to the holders of the options of cash in an amount equal to the excess, if any,
of $23.00 per Share over the per Share exercise price of such options,
multiplied by the number of Shares underlying such option. Pursuant to the
Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, each outstanding Share,
other than Shares as to which dissenters' rights have been duly asserted and
perfected under the Delaware General Corporation Law and Shares held by the
Company, the Purchaser, Merger Sub or any other subsidiary of the Purchaser,
will be converted into the right to receive $23.00 per share in cash, without
interest (the "Merger Consideration"). Shares that are held by the Company as
treasury stock and any Shares owned by the Purchaser, Merger Sub or any other
subsidiary of the Purchaser will be canceled and retired and will cease to exist
and no Merger Consideration will be delivered in exchange therefor.

         The Merger Agreement also contains a number of representations,
warranties and covenants by the parties. The Merger is subject to a number of
conditions, and the Merger Agreement may be terminated under certain
circumstances, all as set forth in the Merger Agreement.

         The Purchaser, Merger Sub, and James Carroll, the Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer of the Company ("Carroll"), who beneficially owns 1,086,903
Shares (the "Carroll Shares"), have entered into a Stockholder Tender Agreement,
dated as of June 13, 2000 (the "Tender Agreement"), pursuant to which Carroll
has agreed, among other things, (i) to tender in the Tender Offer all of the
Carroll Shares now owned or that may hereafter be acquired by Carroll, (ii) to
appoint the Purchaser or any nominee of the Purchaser as his proxy to vote the
Carroll Shares in connection with the Merger Agreement, and (iii) not to
transfer any of the Carroll Shares.

         The Company and ChaseMellon Shareholder Services, L.L.C., as Rights
Agent, have entered into an Amendment No. 1 to Second Amended Rights Agreement,
dated as of June 13, 2000 (the "Rights Amendment"), pursuant to which Purchaser
and its affiliates are, with respect to the transactions contemplated by and
effected pursuant to the Merger Agreement, excluded from the definition of an
"Acquiring Person" (as such term is defined in the Rights Agreement).
