Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or

On December 8, 2008, Fleetwood
Enterprises Inc. (the “Company”) received formal notification from NYSE
Regulation, Inc. that it is not in compliance with the NYSE’s continued
listing standard requirements that it maintain a market capitalization of at
least $25 million over a 30 trading-day period, and that it have, at a minimum,
either a $75 million average market capitalization or $75 million in
stockholders’ equity as required by Section 802.01B of the NYSE Listed Company
Manual. The Company is pursuing various solutions to satisfy the continued
listing standards, including the successful completion of the exchange offer as
reported in Item 8.01 below, and in addition the Company is continuing to
develop and implement ongoing restructuring initiatives to improve operations
and further reduce costs.
As previously disclosed in the
Company’s Form 8-K filed on November 3, 2008, NYSE Regulation, Inc. earlier
notified the Company that it was not in compliance with the $1.00 average share
price continued listing standard, and the Company had previously notified the
NYSE of its intent to cure that deficiency.
On December 12, 2008, the Company
issued a press release, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and
incorporated by reference herein, announcing the successful completion of the
exchange offer, launched on October 30, 2008, to issue Fleetwood’s new 14%
senior secured notes and shares of its common stock in exchange for its existing
$100 million principal amount of 5% convertible senior subordinated debentures
and relating to the matters described in Item 3.01 above
.
