                      To Form 8-K dated December 22, 2000

                     BRUCE BOYLEN NEW CHAIRMAN AT FLEXSTEEL

DUBUQUE, IOWA...At the December Board of Directors meeting of Flexsteel
Industries, Inc., Bruce Boylen, a member of the Board since 1994, was named
Chairman of that Board. He will replace John R. Easter, who will retire in
March, 2001.

     Boylen was named to the Flexsteel Board in 1994. He was then recently
retired from Fleetwood, a leading manufacturer in the recreational vehicle
industry that Flexsteel is a leading supplier of specialized seating to.

     John Easter was named Chairman of the Board in 1998. Prior to joining the
Board in 1994, Easter had a long career at Sears in home furnishings
merchandising as a vice president.

     "Flexsteel has been very fortunate in the leadership provided by these two
men," said K. Bruce Lauritsen, Flexsteel's president and CEO. "John Easter's
knowledge of the home furnishings market has been intensely useful, while Bruce
Boylen's background is extremely helpful to us in both the recreational vehicle
and commercial seating markets."



                   TIMOTHY E. HALL APPOINTED TO TREASURER AND
                               ASSISTANT SECRETARY

held various accounting positions at Deloitte & Touche. He received his
Bachelor's Degree in Accounting and Business Administration from Wartburg

Accountants.
