FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In February 2003, the Company in connection with the refinancing of its bank debt terminated an interest rate swap agreement that in effect provided a fixed interest rate of 7.4% on Term Loan 1 and entered into a new
interest rate swap agreement. The new agreement is on substantially the same terms as the terminated agreement, except that it in effect provides for a fixed interest rate of 4.1% through 2010 on Term Loan A. The Company&#146;s $3.0 million payment
to terminate the swap agreement is being amortized as interest expense over the remaining repayment period for Term Loan A, resulting in an effective fixed interest rate of 7.4% on Term Loan A. </FONT></P> <P

effect provides a fixed interest rate of 4.0% through 2008 on Term Loan B. The Company is accounting for the new interest rate swap agreements for Term Loans A and B as cash flow hedges. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

Company&#146;s swap agreements for that period. However, the Company has recognized an overall decrease in the aggregate fair market value of its interest rate swap agreements, resulting from the general decline in interest rates since the inception
of those agreements (including the effect of the swap termination payment discussed above). The aggregate decrease in the fair market value of the effective portion of the agreements of $1.9 million after tax as of both August 31, 2003, and November
30, 2002 ($3.0 million pretax as of August 31, 2003 and $3.1 million pretax as of November 30, 2002) is reflected under the caption &#147;accumulated other comprehensive loss&#148; in the consolidated balance sheets. </FONT></P> <P

wood furniture declined $2.6 million, or 8.8%, to $27.3 million from $29.9 million in last year&#146;s third quarter. Shipments of imported products for the 2003 nine-month period increased $42.1 million, or 61.9%, to $110.1 million, compared with

2003 quarterly period is attributed to lower margins on imported shipments resulting from continued increases in inbound freight and other transit related costs. The improvement in the 2003 nine-month period was due primarily to increased shipments
of imported products. As a percentage of net sales, imported products generally reflect higher gross profit margins than domestically produced wood furniture. However, imported products also carry a higher component of selling and administrative
expenses than domestically produced wood furniture, primarily for product sourcing, warehousing, and distribution. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P

holiday. The Company continues to believe that there is pent-up demand for home furnishings. If consumer confidence continues to improve, the Company believes that these increased order trends can be sustained through the end of the fiscal year.
However, the Company is going up against the highest fourth quarter sales in its history. Record sales in the fourth quarter of 2002 were due in part to a significant improvement in inventory availability through better than anticipated delivery by
foreign suppliers early in that quarter. The improved inventory availability allowed the Company to make tremendous improvement in shipping backlogs. Throughout 2003 that excellent stock availability has continued. Currently, 86% of the
Company&#146;s wood furniture products are in stock and available to ship. Consequently, the Company anticipates that sales in the 2003 fourth quarter as a percentage of annual sales volume will be more consistent with historical performance than
with the 2002 fourth quarter. Historically, fourth quarter sales have generally represented 26 to 27 percent of the Company&#146;s annual sales volume. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P

leather seating specialist Bradington-Young, LLC, on January 2, 2003. The Company conducts the upholstery operation under the Bradington-Young name and specializes in upscale leather reclining chairs, executive desk chairs and motion and stationary
upholstery in the upper-medium to high-end price niches. The Company acquired the Bradington-Young operation for $24.5 million in cash less approximately $4.1 million in assumed debt, plus a post-closing working capital adjustment of approximately
$1.6 million. In addition, the Company capitalized acquisition-related fees of approximately $470,000. The acquisition was financed principally with $25.0 million in bank debt. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

increasing from $24.7 million at November 30, 2002. This increase is attributed to the increase in bank debt incurred to acquire Bradington-Young. Working capital increased to $84.4 million as of August 31, 2003, from $71.4 million at the end of
fiscal 2002, reflecting the combined effects of a $12.4 million increase in current assets and a $601,000 decrease in current liabilities. The increase in current assets includes increases of $11.1 million in cash, $2.4 million in trade receivables,
$264,000 in other current assets and a decline in inventories of $1.4 million. The decline in current liabilities is due to decreases in accrued expenses and trade accounts payable and the payment of accrued income taxes, partially offset by an

suppliers and employees and higher income tax and interest payments. Payments to suppliers and employees increased $35.2 million, principally to fund the production of upholstery products and the operating costs of Bradington-Young since January
2003, increased purchases of imported wood furniture products, and higher selling and administrative expenses, partially offset by reduced cash requirements to support lower domestic wood furniture production levels. Cash received from customers
increased $50.2 million as a result of Bradington-Young upholstery products sales since January 2003 and higher wood furniture sales. Tax payments increased $4.0 million principally due to the timing of amounts due in each respective period.

products, the Company generally negotiates firm pricing with its foreign suppliers, for periods typically of up to one year. The Company accepts the exposure to exchange rate movements beyond these negotiated periods without using derivative

pricing. As a result, a weakening U.S. Dollar exchange rate could adversely impact sales volume and profit margins during such periods. However, the Company generally expects to reflect substantially all of the effect of any price changes from
