"Company"), in connection with the annual meeting of shareholders to be held on
May 13, 2004 at the Charleston Place Hotel, 205 Meeting Street, Charleston,

acting upon the matters set forth in the foregoing Notice of Annual Meeting of
Shareholders (the "Notice"). Shareholders of record of the Company's common
stock, par value $.01 per share ("Common Stock"), as of the close of business on
March 29, 2004, will be entitled to vote at the meeting. On March 29, 2004 (the

     The entire cost of this proxy solicitation is being paid by the Company. In
addition to solicitation by mail, officers and employees of the Company, without
additional remuneration, may solicit proxies by telephone, facsimile
transmission or personal contact. Brokerage houses, banks, nominees, fiduciaries
and other custodians will be requested to forward soliciting material to the
beneficial owners of shares held by them of record and will be reimbursed by the
Company for their expenses in so doing.

     The mailing address of the Company's executive office is 2000 Waters Edge
Drive, Johnson City, Tennessee 37604. This Proxy Statement and the form of proxy
was mailed to shareholders on or about April 15, 2004.

Voting; Quorum; Proxies

     Each share of Common Stock outstanding on the Record Date is entitled to
one vote on each matter submitted to a vote of shareholders at the Annual
Meeting. A quorum for the conduct of business is established when the holders of
at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote
in the election of directors is present at the meeting or is represented by
proxy. Representatives of the Company will serve as inspectors of election for
the Annual Meeting.

     Shares represented by a properly executed proxy will be voted at the Annual
Meeting in the manner specified. In the absence of specific instructions, shares
represented by a properly executed proxy will be voted for each of the nominees
for election to the Board of Directors named herein and for the proposal to
ratify the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to serve as the Company's
independent auditor for 2004.

     The Board of Directors does not now intend to bring before the Annual
Meeting any matters other than those disclosed in the Notice, and it is not
aware of any business that any other persons intend to bring before the Annual
Meeting. Should any such matter requiring a vote of the shareholders arise, the
enclosed form of proxy confers upon the persons named therein the discretionary
authority to vote the shares represented by the proxy as they deem appropriate.

     A proxy may be revoked at any time before it is exercised by delivery to
the Secretary of the Company of a written revocation or a subsequently dated
proxy and will be deemed revoked if the shareholder votes in person at the
Annual Meeting.





Voting Rights and Outstanding Shares

Proposal I:    Election of Directors. Directors are elected by a plurality vote
and the nominee who receives the most votes will be elected. Abstentions and
broker non-votes will not be taken into account in determining the outcome of
the election.

Proposal II:   Ratification of Auditors. To be approved, this matter must receive
the affirmative vote of the majority of the shares present in person or by proxy
and entitled to vote on the matter. Abstentions will have the effect of "no"
votes on this matter. A broker non-vote will not be considered present and
entitled to vote on non-routine items and will have no impact on the vote for
this proposal.

                                   PROPOSAL I
                              ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

     The Company's Certificate of Incorporation provides for the division of the
Board of Directors into three classes: Class I, Class II and Class III. Only one
class of directors is elected at each annual meeting. Each director so elected
serves for a three-year term and until his or her successor is elected and
qualified, subject to such director's earlier death, resignation or removal.

     On March 4, 2004, the Board of Directors elected to reduce the number of
board seats from seven to six effective immediately upon the completion of the
term of the two Class I directors at the Annual Meeting on May 13, 2004.

Nominees

     One Class I director will be elected to the Board of Directors at the
Annual Meeting. The Company has nominated for election Michael E. Werner, a
current director of the Company. The nominee has indicated a willingness to
continue to serve as a director if elected, but if Mr. Werner should decline or
be unable to serve, the persons named as proxies intend to vote all shares in
favor of the election of such other person who may be nominated as a replacement
by the Board of Directors.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" THIS PROPOSAL.


                                   PROPOSAL II
                      RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF AUDITORS

     The firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP has been selected by the Audit
Committee of the Board of Directors as the Company's outside auditors for 2004.
Although it is not required to do so, the Board has determined that it is
desirable to seek shareholders' ratification of the selection of
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP. If the shareholders should not ratify the
appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the Audit Committee will reconsider
the appointment.

     A representative of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is expected to be present at
the Annual Meeting and will have an opportunity to make a statement, if he or
she so desires, and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" THIS PROPOSAL.



                       SUBMISSION OF SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS

     Any shareholder proposal intended to be presented at next year's Annual
Meeting must be received by the Company at its executive offices not later than
December 15, 2004 in order to be considered for inclusion in the Company's proxy
statement and form of proxy for such meeting. These proposals should be sent to
NN, Inc., Attention: Secretary, 2000 Waters Edge Drive, Johnson City, Tennessee
37604. Proposals of shareholders not intended for inclusion in the Company's
2005 proxy statement must be received by the Company in writing no later than
February 28, 2005 in order to preclude the Company's use of its discretionary
proxy voting authority to vote on the proposal or nominee if shareholder is
present at the 2005 annual meeting.

(1)  The exercise price is based on the fair market value at the date of the
     grant of the option. The options have a vesting period of three years, and
     terminate ten years from the date of grant, subject to earlier termination
     in certain conditions. The exercisability of the options is accelerated in
     the event of a change of control (as defined in the option agreements).

(2)  The amounts shown as potential realizable values are based on assumed
     annualized rates of appreciation in the price of Common Stock of five
     percent and ten percent over the term of the options, as set forth in the
     rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Actual gains, if any, on
     stock option exercises are dependent upon the future performance of the
     Common Stock. There can be no assurance that the potential realizable
     values reflected in this table will be achieved.

Employment and Change of Control Agreements with Named Executive Officers

     Messrs. Baty, Gentry, Dyckman and Sams have written employment agreements
to serve in their respective positions that extend automatically for successive
one-year terms unless either party gives notice of termination. The Company may
terminate each executive's employment with or without cause, but if terminated
without cause, he would continue to receive his annual salary, paid on a monthly
basis, for one year from the date of termination. Additionally, Messrs. Baty,
Gentry, Dyckman and Sams have a written change of control agreement. These
agreements state if an executive's employment is terminated within two years
following a change of control as defined in the document that each executive
will receive a lump sum payment of a multiple of his annual salary. The multiple
for each of the executive officers is as follows: Mr. Baty - 2.5; Mr. Gentry -
2.0; Mr. Dyckman - 2.0 and Mr. Sams - 2.0. Additionally, certain benefits will
continue to be paid by the Company to each executive officer for a period of

                       BOARD OF DIRECTOR'S AUDIT COMMITTEE
                             REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS

     In accordance with its written charter adopted by the Board of Directors,
the Audit Committee assists the Board in fulfilling its responsibility for
oversight of the quality and integrity of the accounting, auditing and financial
reporting practices of the Company. Management has responsibility for
preparation of the Company's financial statements and the independent auditors
have responsibility for the examination of those statements. Each of the members
of the Audit Committee meets the independence requirements of the Nasdaq Stock
Market.

     The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed with the Company's
management and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the Company's independent auditor,
the audited financial statements of the Company for 2003; has discussed with
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP matters required to be discussed by applicable
Auditing Standards; has received from the independent auditors the written
disclosures and letter required by Independence Standards No. 1; and has
discussed with the independent auditor the auditor's independence, including
whether PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP's provision of non-audit services to the
Company was compatible with maintaining PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP's
independence. Based on the review and discussions described above, the Audit
Committee recommended to the Company's Board of Directors that the audited
financial statements be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003 for filing with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.

     The Audit Committee originally adopted a written charter in June 2000. In
April 2003 and on March 2004, the Audit Committee approved a revised charter for
the Audit Committee. A copy of this charter is attached to this Proxy Statement
as Annex A.

                              Robert M. Aiken, Jr.
                                Michael E. Werner
                                Steven T. Warshaw


                     MATTERS RELATED TO INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

     On August 19, 2003, the Company retained the services of
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as its principal accountants to audit the Company's
consolidated financial statements, replacing KPMG LLP. The decision to retain
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP was based upon a reevaluation by the Company of its
current professional relationships and was approved by the Company's Board of
Directors at the recommendation of the Company's Audit Committee.

     KPMG's reports on the Company's consolidated financial statements for each
of the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 did not contain an adverse opinion
or disclaimer of opinion, nor were such reports qualified or modified as to
uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

     During the same period and through their dismissal on August 18, 2003,
there were no disagreements with KPMG on any matter of accounting principle or
practice, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or


                                       10





procedure which disagreements, if not resolved to KPMG's satisfaction would have
caused them to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in
connection with their opinion. Additionally, there were no reportable events as
defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

Fees billed to the Company by KPMG LLP in fiscal year 2002 and by
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP in fiscal year 2003 are summarized as follows:

     Audit Fees. Audit fees billed to the Company by KPMG LLP in 2002 and
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP in 2003 for review of the Company's annual financial
statements and those financial statements included in the Company's quarterly
reports on Form 10-Q totaled $421,712 and $554,836 respectively.

     Audit Related Fees. Audit related fees billed to the Company by KPMG LLP in
2002 and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP in 2003 generally included benefit plan
audits and other attestation services totaled $105,490 and $339,129,
respectively.

     Tax Fees. Tax fees billed to the Company by KPMG LLP in 2002 and
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP in 2003 were $352,293 and $166,033 respectively and
include domestic and international corporate tax compliance, planning and
advice.

     All Other Fees. There were no other fees billed to the Company by KPMG LLP
during 2002 and PricewaterhouseCoopers in 2003 that were not included within the
above categories.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures.

     The Audit Committee pre-approves all audit and permissible non-audit
services to be provided to the Company by its independent auditor prior to
commencement of services. The Audit Committee Chairman has the authority to
pre-approve such services up to a specified fee amount and these pre-approved
decisions are presented to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled
meeting. Since the effective date of the Securities and Exchange Commission's
rules regarding strengthening auditor independence, all of the audit,
audit-related, and tax services by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP were pre-approved
in accordance with the Audit Committee's policies and procedures.

                      REPORT OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE

     The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors is responsible for the
oversight of the Company's compensation policies. The membership of the
Compensation Committee during 2003 consisted of G. Ronald Morris, Michael E.
Werner, Steven T. Warshaw and James L. Earsley. The report of the Committee on
executive officer compensation for 2003 is set forth below.

Compensation Principles

     The goal of the Company is to structure its compensation arrangements for
executive officers in a manner that will promote the Company's profitability and
enhance shareholder value. In designing its compensation arrangements to achieve
this goal, the Company is guided by the following objectives:

     •    attracting and retaining qualified and dedicated executives who are
          essential to the long-term success of the Company;

     •    providing compensation packages that are competitive with the
          compensation arrangements offered by comparable companies, including
          the Company's competitors;

     •    tying a significant portion of an executive officer's compensation to
          the Company's and the individual's performance; and

     •    directly aligning the interests of management with the interests of
          the shareholders through stock-based compensation arrangements.


                                       11





     In 2003, the components of the Company's executive compensation
arrangements consisted of salary, cash bonus and stock option award
opportunities pursuant to the Stock Incentive Plan.

Executive Officer Compensation

     As a general matter, the Company believes the interests of the Company and
its shareholders are best served by developing and maintaining compensation
policies that are consistent and market competitive with peer group industrial
companies. The Company therefore periodically conducts peer group benchmarking
of public industrial companies and utilizes this information to aid in
establishing a competitive compensation program for the company. The following
criteria are utilized as a basis for this program: performance (revenue growth,
EPS growth, return on net assets, return on equity, and total shareholder
return), executive pay, annual incentive/bonus, benefits, and stock incentive
awards.

     The current executive compensation structure includes a formal salary grade
structure that establishes five levels of executive compensation within the
Company. Base salary ranges (low, mid and high) are established for each salary
grade. In addition, a formal annual incentive bonus plan includes threshold,
target, and maximum awards based upon pre-established financial performance
criteria.

Salary

     The salary levels for the Company's executive officers and managers are
reviewed and determined biannually. Adjustments to executive officer
compensation are evaluated based upon the individual's and Company's performance
within the framework of the Company's formal compensation policies.

Annual Bonus

     Annual bonuses are based solely on a formalized plan. Bonus payments are
contingent upon achieving pre-established net income goals for each operating
business unit and the total company. The bonuses paid to Named Executive
Officers for 2003 are set forth in the Summary Compensation Table.

Stock Incentive Plan

     Prior to its initial public offering in 1994, the Company adopted the Stock
Incentive Plan under which 1,125,000 shares of the Company's common stock have
been reserved for issuance to executive officers and other key employees, as
determined by the Compensation Committee. The Stock Incentive Plan has been
amended over time to increase the number of shares available for issuance
pursuant to awards made under the plan to 2,450,000. This Plan expired on March
2, 2004. Stock options granted under this plan prior to expiration are
exercisable upon vesting for a period of ten years after the date of grant.

     Stock option grants to the Company's executive officers and managers are
generally reviewed and determined biannually by the Compensation Committee. With
respect to options awarded, the committee utilizes a structure based upon the
following: recommendations from the independent compensation review, Mr. Baty's
recommendations (other than himself), and rewards to such officers and other key
employees for superior performance and to provide financial incentives for such
officers and employees to continue to perform in a superior manner. The Company
awarded 15,000 options to one executive officer during 2003. 37,000 options were
awarded to executive officers during 2002.

Compensation of the Chief Executive Officer

     The Company's decisions regarding compensation of its Chief Executive
Officer are guided by the same policies and considerations that govern
compensation of the Company's other executive officers. Mr. Baty's salary was
set at a level that the Committee determined was appropriate on the basis of the
following factors: 1) The Company's overall performance, 2) Mr. Baty's
individual performance and 3) The competitiveness of Mr. Baty's salary in
comparison to similar industrial companies.


                                       12





Compliance with Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m)

     Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, precludes
any public corporation from taking a deduction for compensation in excess of $1
million paid to its chief executive officer or any of its other executive
officers. Certain performance-based compensation, however, is exempt from the
deduction limit. No formal policy has been adopted by the Company with respect
to minimizing the risk that compensation paid to its executive officers will
exceed the deduction limit. The Company does not anticipate that any
compensation paid to its executive officers in 2003 will exceed the limit
imposed by Section 162(m).

Compensation Committee Interlock and Insider Participation

     All compensation decisions during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003
for each of the Named Executive Officers were made by the Compensation Committee
of the Board of Directors, consisting of Messrs Morris, Werner, Warshaw and
Earsley, none of whom is or was an officer or employee of the Company during the
last fiscal year.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

     There were no transactions in 2003 requiring disclosure pursuant to Item
404 of Regulation S-K.

                                PERFORMANCE GRAPH

     The following graph compares the cumulative total shareholder return on the
Company's Common Stock (consisting of stock price performance and reinvested
dividends) from December 31, 1998 with the cumulative total return (assuming
reinvestment of all dividends) of (i) the Value Line Machinery Industry Stock
Index and (ii) the Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index, for the period December
31, 1998 through December 31, 2003. The Value Line Machinery Industry Index is
an industry index comprised of 49 companies engaged in manufacturing of
machinery and machine parts, a list of which is available from the Company. The
comparison assumes $100 was invested in the Company's Common Stock and in each
of the foregoing indices on December 31, 1998. There can be no assurances that
the performance of the Common Stock will continue in the future with the same or
similar trend depicted on the graph.

                               AUDIT COMMITTEE OF
                             THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

                                     CHARTER

I.   PURPOSE

     The Audit Committee shall provide assistance to the corporate directors in
     fulfilling their responsibility to the shareholders, potential
     shareholders, and investment community relating to corporate accounting,
     reporting practices of the Corporation, and the quality and integrity of
     the financial reports of the Corporation. The Audit Committee's primary
     duties and responsibilities are to:

     •    Oversee that management has maintained the reliability and integrity
          of the accounting policies and financial reporting and disclosure
          practices of the Corporation.

     •    Oversee that management has established and maintained processes to
          assure that an adequate system of internal control is functioning
          within the Corporation.

     •    Oversee that management has established and maintained processes to
          assure compliance by the Corporation with all applicable laws,
          regulations and corporate policy.

     •    Monitor the independence and performance of the corporation's
          independent auditors.

     •    Provide a communication link between the independent auditors,
          management and the Board.

     The Audit Committee will fulfill these responsibilities primarily by
     carrying out the activities enumerated in Section IV of this Charter.

II.  COMPOSITION

     The Audit Committee shall be comprised of three or more directors as
     determined by the Board, each of whom shall be independent as defined under
     any applicable rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act
     of 2002 (the "Act") and the rules promulgated under the act. All members of
     the Audit Committee shall be free from any relationship that, in the
     opinion of the Board, would interfere with the exercise of his or her
     independent judgment as a member of the Audit Committee.

     All members of the Audit Committee shall have a working familiarity with
     basic finance and accounting practices in order to be able to read and
     understand fundamental financial statements (including the Company's
     balance sheet, income statement and cash flow statement). In the
     determination of the Board, at least one member shall meet the definition
     of "audit committee financial expert" as set forth in the Act. The chairman
     of the Audit Committee will meet the definition of an "audit committee
     financial expert." Audit Committee members may enhance their familiarity
     with finance and accounting by participating in educational programs
     conducted by the Corporation or an outside consultant.

     The members of the Audit Committee shall be elected by the Board at the
     annual organizational meeting of the Board and shall serve until their
     successors shall be duly elected and qualified. Unless a Chairperson is
     elected by the full Board, the members of the Audit Committee may designate
     a Chairperson by majority vote of the full Audit Committee membership.

III. MEETINGS

     The Audit Committee shall meet at least five times annually, or more
     frequently as circumstances dictate. As part of its job to foster open
     communication, the Audit Committee should meet at least annually with


                                        1





     management and the independent accountants separately to discuss any
     matters that the Audit Committee or any of these groups believes should be
     discussed privately. In addition, the Audit Committee should meet with the
     independent auditors and management quarterly to review the Corporation's
     financial statements and significant findings based upon the independent
     auditors review and auditing procedures.

     The Committee should maintain minutes of its meetings and periodically
     report to the Board on significant matters relating to the Committee.

IV.  RESPONSIBILITIES AND DUTIES

     To fulfill its responsibilities and duties the Audit Committee shall:

     Documents/Reports Review

          1.   Review and reassess, at least annually, the adequacy of this
               Charter. Make recommendations to the Board, as conditions
               dictate, to update this Charter.

          2.   Prior to releasing year end earnings, the Committee will review
               with management and the independent auditors the financial
               results. It will also review the results of the audit with the
               independent auditors and will discuss certain matters as required
               to be communicated to audit committees in accordance with
               applicable accounting and auditing standards.

          3.   Review the Corporation's annual audited financial statements
               prior to filing with the SEC as part of Form 10-K. This review
               should include a discussion with management and the independent
               auditors of significant issues regarding accounting principles,
               practices and judgments.

          4.   In consultation with management and the independent auditors, the
               Committee shall consider the integrity of the Company's financial
               reporting processes and controls, and discuss significant
               financial risk exposures and the steps management has taken to
               monitor, control, and report such exposures. The Committee shall
               review significant findings by the independent auditors together
               with management's response.

          5.   Review with management and the independent auditors the
               Corporation's quarter financial results prior to the release of
               earnings and the corporation's quarterly financial statements
               prior to filing with the SEC as part of form 10-Q. This review
               and discussion will include any significant issues regarding
               accounting principles, practices and judgments and any items
               required to be communicated by the independent auditors in
               accordance with applicable accounting ad auditing standards.

     Independent Accountants

          6.   Once per year there will be an evaluation of Audit Committee
               performance conducted by the Board of Directors.

          7.   Review the performance of the independent auditors and make all
               decisions regarding the appointment or termination of the
               independent auditors. The Audit Committee has the ultimate
               authority and responsibility to select, evaluate and, where
               appropriate, replace the independent auditors. The independent
               auditors are ultimately accountable to the Audit Committee for
               their audit of the financial statements of the Corporation. On an
               annual basis, the Audit Committee should review and discuss with
               the independent auditors all significant relationships with the
               Corporation to determine the auditor's independence

          8.   The Audit Committee has the sole authority to approve all audit
               engagement fees and terms.

          9.   Oversee independence of the accountants by:


                                        2





               -    receiving from the independent auditors, on a periodic
                    basis, a formal written statement delineating all
                    relationships between the independent auditors and the
                    Corporation consistent with Independence Standards Board
                    Standard 1 ("ISB No. 1");

               -    reviewing, and actively discussing with the Board, if
                    necessary, and the independent auditors, on a periodic
                    basis, any disclosed relationships or services between the
                    independent auditors and the Corporation or any other
                    disclosed relationships or services that may impact the
                    objectivity and independence of the independent auditors;

               -    recommending, if necessary, that the Board take certain
                    actions to satisfy itself of the auditor's independence; and

               -    confirming that the independent auditors' are independent
                    pursuant to Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X and any requirements
                    of the Act.

          10.  Based on the review and discussions referred to in section IV.2
               and IV.5, the Audit Committee shall determine whether to
               recommend to the Board that the Corporation's audited financial
               statements be included in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form
               10-K for the last fiscal year for filing with the Securities and
               Exchange Commission.

          11.  Consider whether the engagement of the independent auditors for
               non-audit services is compatible with maintaining the independent
               auditor's independence and review the fees for such services. The
               Audit Committee shall approve in advance the engagement and the
               payment of fees to the auditor for non-audit services. Such
               services will only be those permissible by the Act and any Nasdaq
               Stock Market requirements.

     Financial Reporting Process

          12.  In conjunction with the independent auditors and the internal
               auditors, review the integrity of the Corporation's financial
               reporting processes, both internal and external.

          13.  Consider and approve, if appropriate, major changes to the
               Corporation's accounting principles and practices proposed by
               management. Discuss with the independent auditors any significant
               changes in auditing standards or their audit scope.

          14.  Establish regular systems of reporting to the Audit Committee by
               each of management and the independent auditors regarding any
               significant judgments made in management's preparation of the
               financial statements and any significant difficulties encountered
               during the course of the review or audit, including any
               restrictions on the scope of the work or access to required
               information. Discuss policies with respect to risk assessment and
               risk management.

          15.  Review any significant disagreement among management and the
               independent accountants in connection with the preparation of the
               financial statements.

     Legal Compliance/General

          16.  Review with the Corporation's counsel, any legal matter that
               could have a significant impact on the Corporation's financial
               statements. As appropriate, obtain advice and assistance from
               outside independent legal, accounting or other advisors.

          17.  Establish confidential, anonymous procedures for the receipt,
               retention and treatment of complaints regarding accounting,
               internal accounting controls and auditing matters.

          18.  Approve the report of the Audit Committee required by the rules
               of the SEC to be included in the Corporation's annual proxy
               statement.

          19.  Review and approve all related party transactions.


                                        3





     While the Audit Committee has the responsibilities and powers set forth in
     this Charter, it is not the duty of the Audit Committee to plan or conduct
     audits or to determine that the Company's financial statements are complete
     and accurate and are in accordance with generally accepted accounting
     principles. This is the responsibility of management and the independent
     auditors. Nor is it the duty of the Audit Committee to conduct
     investigations, resolve disagreements, if any, between management and the
     independent auditors or to assure compliance with laws and regulations.
