FLEETWOOD ENTERPRISES ANNOUNCES EXCHANGE OFFER                                  

RIVERSIDE, CALIF., JUNE 12, 2001--Fleetwood Enterprises, Inc. (NYSE:FLE), today 
announced that it has filed a registration statement with the Securities and    
Exchange Commission to register convertible trust preferred securities of       
Fleetwood's newly formed subsidiary, Fleetwood Capital Trust II. Fleetwood      
intends to offer to exchange the new trust preferred securities for the existing
6% Convertible Trust Preferred Securities due February 15, 2028 of its          
subsidiary, Fleetwood Capital Trust. In conjunction with the exchange offer,    
Fleetwood will also offer investors the right to purchase additional new trust  
preferred securities of Fleetwood Capital Trust II for cash. The purpose of the 
exchange offer is to enhance Fleetwood's balance sheet by reducing overall debt 
and increasing shareholders' equity. The purpose of the cash offer is primarily 
to pay taxes Fleetwood expects to incur as a result of the exchange offer. The  
exchange offer and the cash offer are expected to commence in July.
