NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(13) Convertible Senior Subordinated Debentures

In December 2003, Fleetwood completed the sale of $100 million aggregate principal amount of 5% convertible senior subordinated debentures due in 2023. Interest on the debentures is payable semi-annually at the rate of 5.0%. The debentures are convertible, under certain circumstances, into Fleetwood’s common stock at an initial conversion rate of 85.034 shares per $1,000 principal amount of debentures, equivalent to an initial conversion price of $11.76 per share of common stock.

Holders of the debentures have the ability to require Fleetwood to repurchase the debentures, in whole or in part, on December 15, 2008, December 15, 2013 and December 15, 2018. The repurchase price is 100% of the principal amount of the debentures plus accrued and unpaid interest. Fleetwood may, at its option, elect to pay the repurchase price in cash, its common stock or a combination of cash and its common stock. Fleetwood has the option to redeem the debentures after December 15, 2008, in whole or in part, for cash, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. Subsequent to the end of fiscal 2004, the debentures and the common stock potentially issuable upon conversion of the debentures were registered for resale under the Securities Act of 1933.
