EXPLANATORY NOTE

HNI Corporation (the "Corporation") registered 4,000,000 shares of its common stock, par value $1.00 per share ("Common Stock"), for issuance under the HNI Corporation 1995 Stock-Based Compensation Plan (the "1995 Plan") pursuant to Form S-8 Registration Statement No. 333-107193 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 21, 2003 (the "Registration Statement").*  Upon shareholder approval of the HNI Corporation 2007 Stock-Based Compensation Plan (the "2007 Plan") at the Corporation's annual meeting of shareholders on May 8, 2007, the 2007 Plan replaced the 1995 Plan and no further awards will be made under the 1995 Plan.

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Form S-8 Registration Statement is being filed to deregister 2,688,225 shares of Common Stock that have not been issued and are not subject to issuance pursuant to outstanding awards under the 1995 Plan.  Accordingly, the Corporation hereby withdraws these 2,688,225 shares of Common Stock from registration under the Registration Statement.



*           The Registration Statement was inadvertently identified as a post-effective amendment, but was filed pursuant to General Instruction E of Form S-8 for the purpose of registering an additional 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock.
