</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">At its regularly scheduled December&nbsp;7, 2010 meeting, the Board of Directors of Thor Industries,
Inc. (NYSE:THO) appointed two new independent directors, James L. Ziemer and Andrew E. Graves.
These appointments coincide with the retirement of long-standing board members William C. Tomson
and Neil D. Chrisman, also effective at the same meeting.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Mr.&nbsp;Ziemer, age 60, is the retired president and CEO of Harley Davidson, Inc. Mr.&nbsp;Ziemer joined
Harley Davidson in 1969 and held a series of positions in manufacturing, engineering, accounting,
parts and accessories, and finance. From 1991 until his election as the chief executive officer in
2005, he served as the chief financial officer. Mr.&nbsp;Ziemer is currently a director of Textron,
Inc., where he is chairman of the audit committee. He earned an M.B.A. from the University of
Wisconsin &#151; Milwaukee.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Mr.&nbsp;Graves, age 51, is the current president of Brunswick Boat Group, the largest pleasure boat
company in the world and a division of the Brunswick Corporation, a New York Stock Exchange
company. He has been with Brunswick since 2005. Prior to that, Mr.&nbsp;Graves was president of Dresser
Flow Solutions, a maker of flow control products, measurement systems and power systems, from 2003
to 2005, and before that, he was president and chief operating officer of Federal Signal
Corporation. Mr.&nbsp;Graves earned an M.B.A. from the University of Chicago.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&#147;I am very pleased to announce the appointment of these two exceptionally qualified independent
directors whose experience will help guide Thor in the future,&#148; said Peter B. Orthwein, Thor&#146;s
Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. &#147;I am tremendously grateful to Bill Tomson and
Neil Chrisman, who have devoted many years of service to Thor and its shareholders as directors.
Neil&#146;s and Bill&#146;s advice and input have been important in making Thor the success it is today,&#148; he
continued.
