These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets (held at end of year) is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN The following description of the Terex Corporation and Affiliates' 401(k) Retirement Saving Plan (the "Plan") provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions. General - The Plan is a defined contribution plan that covers certain salaried and non-union hourly employees of Terex Corporation and its subsidiaries ("Terex" or the "Company") meeting minimum eligibility requirements. Certain officers of Terex serve as trustees of the Plan (the "Trustees"). The investments of the Plan are held by Fidelity Management Trust Company ("Fidelity") and Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company ("MassMutual"). The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA"). An Administrative Committee, consisting of at least three members appointed by the Company's Board of Directors, administers the benefit structure of the Plan. The Company is considered the Plan Administrator for purposes of ERISA. Participant Eligibility - Permanent employees may begin participation on the first day of the month following their hiring. Participant Contributions - Participants may contribute a maximum of 20% of their compensation to the Plan in any combination of pre-tax or post-tax earnings. The maximum pre-tax contribution permitted under the Internal Revenue Service regulations in 2001 was $10,500. There is no limit to post-tax contributions. Participants are able to direct current contributions and redistribute accumulated contributions and earnings between investment funds. Employer Contributions - The Company contributes 50% of the first 8% of base compensation that a participant contributes to the Plan. The matching Company contribution is invested directly in Terex common stock. Vesting - Participants are immediately fully vested in their voluntary contributions plus any actual earnings thereon. Participants vest in the employer contribution after one year of eligible service. Forfeitures - Nonvested employer contributions of employees that have separated from the Company become forfeitures and are held in a separate account and shall be used to reduce future employer contributions. However, employees that return to service within five years from their separation date will be entitled to continue vesting on the employer contributions which were previously forfeited. Allocation of Earnings - Each participant's account is credited with contributions and an allocation of earnings from the respective investment funds. A participant's contributions are used to purchase shares in the various investment funds. The value of and the earnings credited to a participant's account are based on the proportionate number of shares owned by the participant and the fair value of the investment on the valuation date. Payment of Benefits - Upon retirement, disability or death, the entire balance of the participant's account becomes payable to the participant or designated beneficiary. Upon any other termination of employment, the participant receives the vested portion of his/her account; however, if the vested portion of the participant's account is greater than $3,500 he/she can elect to keep the investments in the Plan. Withdrawals are also permitted for financial hardship, as defined in the Plan, or upon attainment of age 59-1/2. Participant Loans - Participants may obtain loans in an amount up to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of the vested portion of their account balance, subject to the discretion of the Plan Administrator and certain other restrictions. Terms of all loans are established by the Plan Administrator. - 4 - TEREX CORPORATION AND AFFILIATES' 401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Change in Investment Manager - On February 1, 2000, the Plan was amended to change the investment manager of the Plan to Fidelity from MassMutual. Except for certain amounts invested in Guaranteed Investment Contracts ("GICs"), all funds held by MassMutual were transferred to Fidelity. 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Accounting - The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis. Investments - Plan investments in mutual funds, common stock and participant loans are stated at fair value based on published market prices or other independent sources. The GICs are stated at contract value which approximates fair value. Net appreciation (depreciation) in aggregate fair value of investments is comprised of all realized and unrealized gains and losses during the year. Expenses - Fees and expenses related to administering the Plan are generally paid by Terex. Withdrawals - Withdrawals are recognized at the time of distribution to the participant. Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 3. INVESTMENTS The following presents the investments that represent 5 percent of more of the Plan's net assets: December 31, ----------------------------- 2001 2000 ------------- -------------- Plan's interest in the Terex Corporation 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan Master Trust $ 51,008,243 $ 51,261,267 During 2001, the Plan's investments (including gains and losses on investments bought and sold, as well as held during the year) depreciated in value by $42,113 as follows: Mutual Funds $ 42,113 4. INVESTMENT IN MASTER TRUST The Plan's assets are held in a trust account at Fidelity and consist of an interest in the Terex Corporation 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan Master Trust (the "Master Trust"). The Master Trust was established to permit the commingling of the trust assets for similar employee benefit plans sponsored by the Company. At December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Plan's interest in the net asset of the Master Trust was approximately 89.4% and 89.4%, respectively. Net earnings of the Master Trust are allocated daily by Fidelity to each participant account balance. Net earnings include interest income, dividend income and net appreciation (depreciation) of investments. Contributions, benefit payments and expenses are made on a specific identification basis. - 5 - TEREX CORPORATION AND AFFILIATES' 401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The following table presents the fair values of investments for the Master Trust: December 31, ----------------------------------- 2001 2000 --------------- ----------------- Mutual funds........................... $ 38,412,094 $ 40,077,234 Terex Corporation Common Stock......... 6,602,776 5,678,833 Participant loans...................... 3,259,125 3,292,876 Insurance contract..................... 8,808,370 8,309,783 --------------- ----------------- $ 57,082,365 $ 57,358,726 =============== ================= Net appreciation, dividends and interest for the Master Trust for the year ended December 31, 2001 are as follows: Net appreciation (depreciation) of investments: Mutual Funds.................................. $ (5,481,386) Terex Corporation Common Stock................ 510,572 Dividends......................................... 1,097,701 Interest.......................................... 271,583 GIC interest...................................... 580,071 ---------------------- $ (3,021,459) ====================== The Master Trust has an interest in a benefit-responsive investment contract which is valued at contract value as determined by MassMutual, the holder of the contract. The contract value at December 31, 2001 and 2000 was $8,808,370 and $8,309,783, respectively. The contract value represents contributions made under contract, plus earnings, less participant withdrawals and administrative expenses. Participants may ordinarily direct the withdrawal or transfer of all or a portion of the investment at contract value. The guaranteed annual interest rate is 6 percent. - 6 - TEREX CORPORATION AND AFFILIATES' 401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5. NONPARTICIPANT-DIRECTED INVESTMENTS The Company's contributions to the Plan are invested solely in Terex Corporation Common Stock. Fidelity holds all Terex common stock in one investment account and does not segregate employer and employee purchased common stock activity. As a result, all Plan investments in Terex common stock are considered nonparticipant-directed. Information about the net assets and the significant components of the changes in net assets relating to the nonparticipant-directed investments is as follows: December 31, -------------------------- 2001 2000 ------------ ------------ Net Assets: Terex Corporation Common Stock.........$ 5,760,071 $ 4,910,172 Year Ended December 31, 2001 --------------------- Changes in Net Assets: Contributions.................................. $ 2,078,238 Investment income and gain/loss................ 445,977 Transfer from participant-directed investments. 117,543 Withdrawals.................................... (498,001) Net loan activity.............................. (22,679) Expenses paid.................................. (222) Transfer to participant-directed investments... (1,250,332) Forfeitures.................................... (20,625) --------------------- $ 849,899 ===================== 6. PARTY-IN-INTEREST Certain Plan investments are shares of mutual funds and are managed by Fidelity. Fidelity also serves as a custodian and, therefore, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions. Fees paid by the Plan for the investment management services amounts to $25,293 for the year ended December 31, 2001. 7. INCOME TAX STATUS The Plan received a determination letter, dated July 31, 1995, that it met the qualification requirements of Sections 401(c) and 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "IRC") and that the Plan is exempt from federal income taxation. Subsequently, the Plan has been amended. The Plan Administrator believes that the Plan, as amended, continues to be qualified and exempt from tax under Sections 401(c) and 401(k) of the IRC. 8. TERMINATION OF THE PLAN The Company believes that the Plan will continue without interruption but reserves the right to discontinue the Plan. In the event that such discontinuance results in the complete or partial termination of the Plan, the balance in each participant's account will be distributed as directed by the Trustees. - 7 - TEREX CORPORATION AND AFFILIATES' 401(K) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN SCHEDULE OF ASSETS (HELD AT END OF YEAR) AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2001 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fair Value / Description Contract Value ----------------------------------------------------------- ------------------ MUTUAL FUNDS: Fidelity Growth Company Fund............................. $ 102,441 Fidelity Growth and Income Fund.......................... 42,131 Fidelity Magellan Fund................................... 25,427 Fidelity Balanced Fund................................... 13,864 ------------------ TOTAL ASSETS HELD FOR INVESTMENT PURPOSES $ 183,863 ================== - 8 - SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the trustees have duly caused this annual report to be signed by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
