(Additional PGAM Subsidiaries).  In their roles as investment manager or adviser
to the Funds, PIM and the Additional PGAM Subsidiaries possess investment and/or
voting control over the Shares.

PIM is a direct  subsidiary of PGAM. PGAM is a limited liability company and the
holding company  incorporating  all of the Pioneer  Investments asset management
business   (including  PIM,  and  the  Additional  PGAM  Subsidiaries)  and  may
therefore, be deemed to beneficially own the Shares.

PGAM, PIM, and the Additional PGAM Subsidiaries disclaim beneficial ownership of
the Shares except to the extent or their respective pecuniary interests therein,
if any.  The filing of this  Schedule 13G shall not be construed as an admission
that the Reporting Persons are the beneficial owners of the Shares for any other
purposes than Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

In  accordance  with  Securities  and Exchange  Commission  Release  No.34-39538
(January 12, 1998) (the"Release"),  this filing reflects the securities that may
be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons,  each of which is a
directly or indirectly owned subsidiary of Unicredit S.p.A. ("Unicredit").  This

any other  subsidiaries of Unicredit whose ownership is disaggregated  from that
of the Reporting Persons in accordance with the Release.

percent of the class of securities, check here:

Various  persons have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of
dividends  from,  or the  proceeds  from the sale of, the Common Stock of GORMAN
RUPP  COMPANY.  The interest of one person,  Pioneer  Equity Income Fund, in the
common stock of GORMAN RUPP COMPANY, amounted to 1,363,363 shares or 5.2% of the
total outstanding Common Stock at December 31, 2014.

Item 8.  Identification and Classification of Members of the Group.

         Inapplicable.

Item 9.  Notice of Dissolution of the Group.

         Inapplicable.

Item 10. Certification.

     By signing  below I certify  that,  to the best of my knowledge and belief,
the  securities  referred to above were  acquired  and are held in the  ordinary
course of business  and were not acquired and are not held for the purpose of or
with the effect of  changing  or  influencing  the  control of the issuer of the
securities  and were not  acquired and are not held in  connection  with or as a
participant in any transaction having that purpose or effect.

    By  signing  below PGAM  certifies  that to the best of its  knowledge  and
belief, the foreign regulatory scheme applicable to it as a sub-holding  company
for the asset  management  division in the UniCredit  Banking Group,  the latter
being  regulated  by the  Bank of Italy  and the  Commissione  Nazionale  per le
Societa`e la Borsa  (CONSOB),  is  substantially  comparable  to the  regulatory
scheme applicable to the functionally equivalent U.S. institution(s).  PGAM also
undertakes to furnish to the Commission  staff,  upon request,  information that
would otherwise be disclosed in a Schedule 13D.

SIGNATURE

     After  reasonable  inquiry and to the best of my  knowledge  and belief,  I
certify that the information  set forth in this statement is true,  complete and
correct.
