</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">On April 30, 2013, Thor Industries, Inc.
(the &quot;Company&quot;) and its subsidiary, SJC Industries Corp. (&quot;SJC&quot;), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement
(the &quot;Agreement&quot;) with Wheeled Coach Industries, Inc. (&quot;Wheeled Coach&quot;), a subsidiary of Allied Specialty Vehicles,
Inc., a privately held company based in Orlando, Florida, pursuant to which Wheeled Coach would acquire substantially all of the
assets used in the conduct of SJC's ambulance business (the &quot;SJC Assets&quot;).</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">The Agreement provides that Wheeled Coach
would pay SJC as consideration for the acquisition of the SJC Assets a purchase price of $12,521,417, subject to certain adjustments,
if applicable. Under the Agreement, the SJC Assets would include all of SJC's right, title and interest in, to and under the assets,
properties and businesses owned, held and used in the conduct of the ambulance business by SJC as of April 30, 2013, excluding
SJC's ambulance facility and certain excluded assets as outlined in the Agreement.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">A copy of the Agreement will be attached
as an exhibit to the Company's Form 10-Q for the third quarter ended April 30, 2013. The foregoing summary of the Agreement does
not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the agreement to be attached to the
Company&rsquo;s Form 10-Q referenced above.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">On May 6, 2013, the Company issued a press
release announcing that it had entered into the Agreement. A copy of the Company&rsquo;s press release is attached hereto as Exhibit
99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">In April 2013, the Company determined that
it was more likely than not that certain long-lived assets associated with the Company&rsquo;s ambulance business would be sold
before the end of their previously estimated useful life. This was determined to be a triggering event and an impairment assessment
relative to those assets was performed.&nbsp; Based on the assessment, the Company determined that the carrying amount of the assets
would not be recoverable from future cash flows and as a result, a non-cash impairment charge of approximately $5 million related
to certain amortizable intangible assets will be recorded in the Company&rsquo;s fiscal third quarter to reflect the fair value
of the assets sold.&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">In addition, the Company is currently evaluating
the goodwill associated with the reporting unit which historically included the ambulance business.&nbsp; This reporting unit had
fair value exceeding carrying value by 15% as of our fiscal 2012 annual goodwill assessment. The Company believes it is more likely
than not that the goodwill allocated to this reporting unit will be impaired, but the precise amount of the impairment has not
yet been determined.&nbsp;</P>
