Dear Members,

As an HNI Corporation shareholder, you should have recently received the 2007 HNI Corporation Proxy Statement (the "Proxy Statement") and proxy card for the Annual Meeting of Shareholders that will be held on Tuesday, May 8, 2007.

The Proxy Statement discusses five management proposals. For information regarding the proposals, please refer to the appropriate section of the Proxy Statement. If you have any questions, please contact:

Melinda Ellsworth, Vice President, Treasurer and Investor Relations

Phone: 563-272-7406

Email: ellsworthm@hnicorp.com

As a fellow HNI member and shareholder, I encourage you to take an active role in HNI's future by reading the Proxy Statement and completing and returning your proxy card with votes "FOR" each of the management proposals as recommended by the HNI Board of Directors. Every vote is important and your vote is no exception, regardless of the number of shares you own.

Thank you for your continued support and commitment to HNI Corporation.

Stan A. Askren
