Forward Looking Statements

This press release contains certain statements, including the Company's plans
and expectations regarding its operating strategies, products and costs, and its
views of the prospects of the recreational vehicle and manufactured housing
industries, which are forward-looking statements and are made pursuant to the
safe harbor provisions of the Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These
forward-looking statements reflect the Company's views, at the time such
statements were made, with respect to the Company's future plans, objectives,
events and financial results such as revenues, expenses, income, earnings per
share, capital expenditures, and other financial items. Forward-looking
statements are not guarantees of future performance; they are subject to risks
and uncertainties. The Company does not undertake to update forward-looking
statements to reflect circumstances or events that occur after the date the
forward-looking statements are made.

There are a number of factors, many of which are beyond the Company's control,
which could cause actual results and events to differ materially from those
described in the forward-looking statements. These factors include pricing
pressures due to competition, raw material costs (particularly vinyl, aluminum,
steel, glass, and ABS resin), availability of retail and wholesale financing for
manufactured homes, availability and costs of labor, inventory levels of
retailers and manufacturers, levels of repossessed manufactured homes, the
financial condition of our customers, interest rates, and adverse weather
conditions impacting retail sales. In addition, general economic conditions and
consumer confidence may affect the retail sale of recreational vehicles and
manufactured homes.
