NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2008

NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Knoll, Inc. (the Company) have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The condensed consolidated balance sheet of the
Company, as of December 31, 2007, was derived from the Companys audited consolidated balance sheet as of that date. All other condensed consolidated financial statements contained herein are unaudited and reflect all adjustments which
are, in the opinion of management, necessary to summarize fairly the financial position of the Company and the results of the Companys operations and cash flows for the periods presented. All of these adjustments are of normal recurring
nature. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Companys
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.

NOTE 2: NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and
Other Postretirement Plans  an amendment of FASB No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R) (SFAS 158). SFAS 158 requires plan sponsors of defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans (collectively, postretirement
benefit plans) to recognize the funded status of their postretirement benefit plans in the statement of financial position, measure the fair value of plan assets and benefit obligations as of the date of the fiscal year-end statement of
financial position, and provide additional disclosures. On December 31, 2006, the Company adopted the recognition and disclosure provision of SFAS 158. The requirement to measure plan assets and benefit obligations as of the date of the
employers fiscal year-end statements of financial position is effective for the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008.

In May
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (SFAS 162), which identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the
preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with U.S. GAAP (the GAAP hierarchy). Any effect of applying the provisions of SFAS 162 shall be reported as a change in accounting principle in
accordance with SFAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections. SFAS 162 is effective 60 days following the Security and Exchange Commissions approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU
Section 411, The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The Company does not expect SFAS 162 to have an impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities  an amendment of SFAS No. 133
(SFAS 161), which requires enhanced disclosures about an entitys derivative and hedging activities. Specifically, entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about: a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments; b)
how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, and its related interpretations; and c) how derivative instruments and related
hedged items affect an entitys financial position, financial performance and cash flows. SFAS 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application
encouraged. SFAS 161 encourages, but does not require, comparative disclosures for earlier periods at initial adoption.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  (Continued)



In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised), Business Combinations
(SFAS 141(R)), which is intended to improve reporting by creating greater consistency in the accounting and financial reporting of business combinations. SFAS 141(R) requires that the acquiring entity in a business combination
recognize all (and only) the assets and liabilities assumed in the transaction, establishes the acquisition-date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and requires the acquirer to disclose to
investors and other users all of the information that they need to evaluate and understand the nature and financial effect of the business combination. In addition, SFAS 141(R) modifies the accounting for transaction and restructuring costs.
SFAS 141(R) is effective for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-including an amendment of SFAS
No. 115 (SFAS 159), which permits an entity to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. A business entity shall report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair
value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. SFAS 159 is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entitys first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. The Company did not elect the
fair value option for any financial assets or financial liabilities.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value
Measurements (SFAS 157), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands the disclosure requirements about fair value measurements. In February 2008, the FASB amended SFAS 157 through
the issuance of FASB Staff Position (FSP) FAS 157-1, Application of FASB Statement No. 157 to FASB Statement No. 13 and Other Accounting Pronouncements That Address Fair Value Measurements for Purposes of Lease
Classification or Measurement under Statement 13 (FSP FAS 157-1) and FSP FAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157 (FSP FAS 157-2). FSP FAS 157-1, which was effective upon the initial adoption
of SFAS 157, amends SFAS 157 to exclude from its scope certain accounting pronouncements that address fair value measurements associated with leases. FSP FAS 157-2, which was effective upon issuance, delays the effective date of SFAS 157 to fiscal
years beginning after November 15, 2008 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are not recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). The Company adopted
SFAS 157, as amended, and on a prospective basis, as of January 1, 2008. The January 1, 2008 adoption did not have a significant impact on the Company. The Company will apply SFAS 157, as amended, and on a prospective basis, as of
January 1, 2009 to nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are not recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. The Company is currently determining the impact of applying SFAS 157, as
amended, to these items. See Note 12 for further information regarding the adoption of SFAS 157.

In April 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) FAS 142-3, Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets. This FSP amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to
determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under FASB Statement No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS 142). The intent of this FSP is to improve the consistency between the useful
life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS 142 and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the asset under SFAS 141R, and other GAAP. This FSP is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and
interim periods beginning after December 15, 2008. Early adoption of the standard is prohibited. FAS 142-3 is effective for us on January 1, 2009. We are currently evaluating the impact of FAS 142-3, but do not believe that our adoption of
the standard will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

|                |  |                |         |                  |   |       

Inventory reserves for obsolescence and other estimated losses were $7.2 million and $6.9 million at June 30,
2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively.

NOTE 4: INCOME TAXES

As of June 30, 2008, the Company had unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $2.6 million. The entire amount of the unrecognized tax benefits would affect the effective tax rate if recognized. For the quarter
ended June 30, 2008, the Company decreased its unrecognized tax benefit amount by approximately $0.4 million for items relating to the settlement of a state audit and expiring statutes on tax positions in prior years. For the quarter ended
March 31, 2008, the Company increased its unrecognized tax benefit amount by approximately $0.2 million for items relating to 2008 tax positions.

Interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits are recorded in income tax expense. At June 30, 2008, the Company had accrued $0.4 million for the potential payment of interest and penalties.

Included in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2008 is approximately $0.4 million related to tax positions for which it is reasonably possible
that the total amounts could significantly change during the next twelve months. This amount represents a potential decrease in unrecognized tax benefits comprised of items related to expiring statutes in federal and state jurisdictions.

As of June 30, 2008, the Company is subject to U.S. Federal income tax examinations for the tax years 2004 through 2007, and to non-U.S. income tax examinations
for the tax years 2000 to 2007. In addition, the Company is subject to state and local income tax examinations for the tax years 2000 through 2007.

The
Companys income tax provision consists of federal, state and foreign income taxes. The tax provisions for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 were based on the estimated effective tax rates applicable for the full
years ending December 31, 2008 and 2007, after giving effect to items specifically related to the interim periods. The Companys effective tax rate was 32.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 38.4% for the three months
ended June 30, 2007. The Companys effective tax rate was 34.0 % for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 38.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2007. This decrease in the effective tax rate is primarily due to the
utilization of a net operating loss carryforward in one of our foreign subsidiaries of approximately $1.4 million recognized in the second quarter of 2008. The Companys effective tax rate is affected by the mix of pretax income and the
different effective tax rates of the tax jurisdictions in which it operates.

NOTE 5: DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company uses derivative financial instruments, to reduce its exposure to adverse fluctuations in foreign currency exchange and interest rates.

On September 30, 2006, the Company entered into two interest rate cap agreements which set a maximum interest rate on a notional amount and utilize LIBOR as a variable-rate reference. Under these agreements, the
Company paid a total premium of approximately $204 thousand for a cap rate of 6.00% on $200 million of the Companys borrowings under its credit facility. The Company has elected not to apply hedge accounting under SFAS No. 133,
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, to these agreements. As such, the change in fair value of the contracts is reported in earnings in the period the value of the contract changes as a component of other income
(expense). The interest rate cap agreements mature on September 30, 2008.

On May 21, 2008, the Company entered into four interest rate swap
agreements for purposes of managing its risk in interest rate fluctuations. These swap agreements allow the Company to fix a portion of its variable rate revolving credit facility in order to protect against a change in its variable interest rate.
These agreements each hedge a notional amount of $150.0 million of the Companys borrowings under the revolving credit facility. Two of the agreements are effective beginning June 9, 2009 and expire on June 9, 2010. On these two
agreements the Company pays a fixed rate of 3.51% and receives a variable rate of interest equal to the three-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), as determined on the last day of each quarterly settlement period. The other two agreements
are effective beginning June 9, 2010 and expire on June 9, 2011. On these two agreements, the Company pays a fixed rate of 4.10% and receives a variable rate of interest equal to three-month LIBOR. The Company has elected to apply hedge
accounting under SFAS No. 133 to these agreements. Changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap agreements are recorded in the period the value of the contract changes. The net amount paid or received upon quarterly settlements will be
recorded as an adjustment to interest expense, while the change in fair value is recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in the equity section of the balance sheet.

The fair value of the Companys derivative instruments included in non-current assets are $2.2 million and zero at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007,
respectively.

The change in the fair values of the Companys derivative instruments and the adjustment to interest expense are summarized as follows:

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  (Continued)



NOTE 8: STOCK PLANS

As of June 30, 2008, the Company sponsors two stock incentive plans with approximately 2,413,802 shares available for grant. Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for its stock incentive plan in accordance with APB 25,
Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations, as permitted by FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and no stock-based employee compensation was reflected in net income with
respect to options granted under the existing plans at that time. Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, using the
modified-prospective-transition method for those unvested options granted after the Companys initial public offering. The prospective method will be applied to those unvested options issued prior to the Companys initial public offering
that have historically been accounted for under the minimum value method. Such options continue to be accounted for under the provisions of APB 25.

As a
result of adopting Statement 123(R), the Companys income before taxes and net income after taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2008, is $0.3 million and $0.2 million lower, respectively, than if it had continued to account for
share-based compensation under SFAS No 123 and APB Opinion No. 25. The Companys income before taxes and net income after taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2008, is $0.7 million and $0.4 million lower, respectively, than if it
had continued to account for share-based compensation under SFAS No. 123 and APB Opinion No. 25. For the three months ended June 30, 2008 both basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share would have been $.01 higher had the
Company not adopted Statement 123(R). For the six months ended June 30, 2008 diluted earnings per share would have been $.01 higher had the Company not adopted Statement 123(R).

The following table illustrates the effect on net income if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 to stock-based employee compensation.

NOTE 11: RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

On April 3, 2008 the Company announced a restructuring plan in order to reduce costs. This restructuring plan included job eliminations and the discontinuation of a product line. The Company based its accounting
and disclosures on the requirements of SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.As a result, charges to net earnings were made in the periods in which restructuring plan liabilities were
incurred. In connection with the above plan, we incurred $2.1 million in employee termination costs and $1.3 million related to the write-off of fixed assets and other miscellaneous costs. A reserve was recorded on the balance sheet for employee
terminations costs that have not been paid as of June 30, 2008.

Below is the summary of the restructuring reserve balance as of June 30, 2008:

NOTE 12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 157 for certain balance sheet items. SFAS 157 establishes a hierarchy that
prioritizes fair value measurements based on the types of inputs used for the various valuation techniques (market approach, income approach, and cost approach). The levels of the hierarchy are described below:



| |  |  | Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; these include quoted prices for similar
assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entitys own assumptions
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Companys assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires
judgment, and may affect the valuation of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy. The following table sets forth the assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, by input level, in the
consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2008 (in thousands):

|ITEM 2: | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
|------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Managements discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations provides a discussion of our financial performance and financial condition that should be read in conjunction with the
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements

Overview

In the second quarter of 2008, we experienced strong double digit growth in earnings per share and net income. Net income grew from $17.5 million in the second quarter of 2007 to $20.9 million in the second quarter of
2008, an increase of 19.4%. Diluted earnings per share was $0.44 during the second quarter of 2008 versus $0.35 per share in the second quarter of 2007, an increase of 25.7% from a year ago. Net sales were $292.5 million for the quarter, an increase
of 7.5% from the second quarter of 2007. Our strategy to diversify our sources of revenue and profits away from a dependence on North American systems sales is allowing us to continue to grow in this challenging macro-economic environment. Our
specialty products and our international business continue to outpace systems and North American sales. We are also beginning to benefit from a price increase implemented in February of 2008.

For the quarter, gross margin expanded 30 basis points to 34.6% versus the comparable quarter of the prior year. The increase from the second quarter of 2007 largely
resulted from better pricing and improved mix as a result of increased specialty sales.

Operating expenses were $62.6 million, or 21.4% of sales, compared
to $55.8 million, or 20.5% of sales, a year ago. The increase in operating expenses during the second quarter of 2008 was in large part due to the inclusion of operating expenses associated with Edelman Leather, which we acquired in the fourth
quarter of 2007.

Our operating income for the second quarter of 2008 was $35.1 million, a decrease of $2.5 million, or 6.6%, over the same period in 2007.
Operating income for the second quarter of 2008 includes a restructuring charge of $3.4 million. On April 3, 2008, we announced a restructuring plan in order to reduce fixed costs. Included in the restructuring charge of $3.4 million are
expenses related to job eliminations and the discontinuation of a product line. These actions are expected to save the company approximately $10.0 million dollars annually. We do not anticipate any future expenses in connection with this
restructuring plan.

Interest expense was $4.0 million, a decrease of $2.5 million from a year ago due to lower rates despite having a higher average debt
outstanding. In May 2008, we entered into four interest rate swap agreements in order to manage our risk in interest rate fluctuations. Each agreement hedges a notional amount of $150.0 million of our $500.0 million revolving credit facility. Two of
the agreements are effective from June 2009 through 2010 and the other two are effective June 2010 through June 2011.

Our tax rate for the quarter was
32.7% compared with 38.4% rate a year ago. The decrease in the rate is primarily due to a Net Operating Loss tax credit that was utilized during the quarter in one of our foreign subsidiaries of $1.4 million.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2008, we took advantage of our stock price and free cash position in order to repurchase 1.1 million shares, pay down $10.0
million in debt, and pay a $0.12 per share dividend. As we enter the remaining half of the year we face continued macroeconomic challenges. We expect accelerating fuel and steel costs to pressure gross and operating margins in the second part of the
year when compared to last year. These pressures have increased since the beginning of the year and although to date we have not felt a material impact on our results we do expect it going forward. In spite of these challenges, we believe the
increased diversification of our sources of revenue makes us less vulnerable to changes in a North American Office environment.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of certain assets, liabilities,
revenues and expenses and the disclosure of certain contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from such estimates. On an ongoing basis, we review our accounting policies and procedures. A more detailed review of our critical
accounting policies is contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.

Sales

Sales for the second quarter of 2008 were $292.5 million, an increase of $20.4 million, or 7.5%, from sales of $272.1 million for the same period in the prior year. Sales
for the six months ended June 30, 2008 were $560.3 million, an increase of $40.3 million, or 7.8%, over the first six months of 2007. The increase in sales for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2008 represents low single digit
organic growth with the rest of the increase coming from the benefit of Edelman Leather which was acquired in the fourth quarter of 2007. In addition, previously implemented price increases accounted for $5.0 million of the sales increase. Our
specialty businesses continue to experience more growth than office systems and seating.

At June 30, 2008, sales backlog was $191.0 million, an
increase of $16.9 million, or 9.7%, from sales backlog of $174.1 million as of June 30, 2007.

Gross Profit and Operating Income

Gross profit for the second quarter of 2008 was $101.1 million, an increase of $7.7 million or 8.2% from gross profit of $93.4 million for the
second quarter of 2007. Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $191.4 million, an increase of $13.5 million or 7.6% from gross profit of $177.9 million for the same period in the prior year. Operating income for the second
quarter of 2008 was $35.1 million, a decrease of $2.5 million, or 6.6% from operating income of $37.6 million for the second quarter of 2007. Operating income for the second quarter of 2008 includes a restructuring charge of $3.4 million. Operating
income for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $67.0 million, a decrease of $1.4 million, or 2.1%, from operating income of $68.4 million for the same period in 2007. As a percentage of sales, gross profit increased from 34.3% for the second
quarter of 2007 to 34.6% for the second quarter of 2008. Operating income as a percentage of sales decreased from 13.8% in the second quarter of 2007 to 12.0% for the same period of 2008. For the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 gross
profit as a percentage of sales was 34.2%. Operating income as a percentage of sales decreased from 13.2% in the first six months of 2007 to 12.0% in the first six months of 2008.

##### Table of Contents

The increase in gross margin resulted from better pricing and improved mix as a result of increased specialty sales.

Operating expenses for the second quarter 2008 were $62.6 million, or 21.4% of sales, compared to $55.8 million, or 20.5% of sales, for the second quarter
2007. Operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2008 were $121.0 million or 21.6% of sales compared to $109.5 million or 21.1% of sales for the same period in 2007. The increase in operating expense dollars for the quarter and six
months ended June 30, 2008 as compared with the prior year periods was in large part due to the inclusion of operating expenses associated with Edelman Leather, which we acquired in the fourth quarter of 2007 and some incremental spending on
growth initiatives and compensation.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 was $4.0 million and $8.9 million, respectively, a decrease of $2.5 million and $4.1 million, respectively, from the same periods in 2007. The
decrease in interest expense for the periods noted above is due to lower average interest rates. The weighted average interest rate for the second quarter of 2008 was 4.2%. The weighted average interest rate for the same period of 2007 was 7.1%.

Other Expense, net

Other
expense for the second quarter of 2008 was $64 thousand which included foreign exchange gains and losses on currency. Other expense for the second quarter of 2007 was $2.7 million and consisted of $1.2 million related to the write-off of deferred
financing fees associated with the refinancing of our old credit facility with a new $500.0 million revolving credit facility. Other expense also included $1.7 million of losses from foreign currency transactions partially offset by other income.

Income Tax Expense

The mix of
pretax income and the varying effective tax rates in the countries in which we operate directly affects our consolidated effective tax rate. The effective tax rate was 32.7% for the second quarter of 2008, as compared to 38.4% for the same period in
2007. This decrease is primarily due to the utilization of a net operating loss carryforward in one of our foreign subsidiaries of approximately $1.4 million. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was 34.0% and 38.2% for
the same period in 2007.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

|Net repayments of debt                 |  |                  | 5,000  |              |   | 21,685
|Payment of dividend                    |  |                  | 11,389 |              |   | 10,617
|Net proceeds from issuance of stock    |  |                  | 61     |              |   | 28,019
|Net cash used for financing activities |  |                  | 36,200 |              |   | 27,559

Historically, we have carried significant amounts of debt, and cash generated by operating activities has been
used to fund working capital, capital expenditures, repurchase shares and scheduled payments of principal and interest under our debt. Our capital expenditures are typically for new product tooling and manufacturing equipment. These capital
expenditures support new products and continuous improvements in our manufacturing processes.

We use our revolving credit facility in the ordinary course of business to fund our working capital needs, and at times
make significant borrowings and repayments under the revolving facility depending on our cash needs and availability at such time.

Year-to-date net cash
provided by operations was $47.2 million, of which $54.1 million was provided from net income plus non-cash amortizations and stock based compensation, offset by a use of cash of ($6.9) million from the changes in assets and liabilities, primarily
inventory.

For the six month period ended June 30, 2008, we used available cash, including the $47.2 million of net cash from operating activities,
to fund $6.6 million in capital expenditures, pay down debt of $5.0 million, repurchase $19.9 million of common stock for treasury, and fund a dividend payment to shareholders totaling $11.4 million and fund working capital.

For the six month period ended June 30, 2007, we used available cash, including the $37.1 million of net cash from operating activities, $28.0 million of proceeds
from the issuance of common stock, to fund $6.9 million in capital expenditures, pay down debt of $21.7 million in conjunction with our debt refinancing, repurchase $29.8 million of common stock for treasury, fund a dividend payment to shareholders
totaling $10.6 million and fund working capital.

Cash used in investing activities was $6.6 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2008 and
$6.9 million for the same period in 2007. Fluctuations in cash used in investing activities are primarily attributable to the levels of capital expenditures.

We are currently in compliance with all of the covenants and conditions under our credit facility. We believe that existing cash balances and internally generated cash flows, together with borrowings available under our revolving credit
facility, will be sufficient to fund normal working capital needs, capital spending requirements, debt service requirements and dividend payments for at least the next twelve months. In addition, we believe that we will have adequate funds available
to meet long-term cash requirements and that we will be able to comply with the covenants under the credit facility. Future principal debt payments may be paid out of cash flows from operations, from future refinancing of our debt or from equity
issuances. However, our ability to make scheduled payments of principal, to pay interest on or to refinance our indebtedness, to satisfy our other debt obligations and to pay dividends to stockholders will depend upon our future operating
performance, which will be affected by general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory, business and other factors beyond our control.

Environmental Matters

Our past and present business operations and the past and present ownership and operation of manufacturing plants on
real property are subject to extensive and changing federal, state, local and foreign environmental laws and regulations, including those relating to discharges to air, water and land, the handling and disposal of solid and hazardous waste and the
cleanup of properties affected by hazardous substances. As a result, we are involved from time-to-time in administrative and judicial proceedings and inquiries relating to environmental matters and could become subject to fines or penalties related
thereto. We cannot predict what environmental legislation or regulations will be enacted in the future, how existing or future laws or regulations will be administered or interpreted or what environmental conditions may be found to exist. Compliance
with more stringent laws or regulations, or stricter interpretation of existing laws, may require additional expenditures by us, some of which may be material. We have been identified as a potentially responsible party pursuant to the Comprehensive
Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA) for remediation costs associated with waste disposal sites that we previously used. The remediation costs and our allocated share at some of these CERCLA sites are
unknown. We may also be subject to claims for personal injury or contribution relating to CERCLA sites. We reserve amounts for such matters when expenditures are probable and reasonably estimatable.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not currently have, nor have we ever had, any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which
would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. In addition, we do not engage in trading activities involving non-exchange traded contracts. As a result,
we are not materially exposed to any financing, liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in these relationships.

Forward-looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements, principally in the sections entitled
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk. Statements and financial discussion and analysis contained in this

to us, based on our current beliefs as well as assumptions made by us and information currently available to us. Forward-looking statements generally will be accompanied by words such as anticipate, believe,
could, estimate, expect, forecast, intend, may, possible, potential, predict, project, or other similar words, phrases or
expressions. Although we believe these forward-looking statements are reasonable, they are based upon a number of assumptions concerning future conditions, any or all of which may ultimately prove to be inaccurate. Important factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements include, without limitation: the risks described under Item 1A and Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007; changes in the
financial stability of our clients or the overall economic environment, resulting in decreased corporate spending and service sector employment; changes in relationships with clients; the mix of products sold and of clients purchasing our products;
the success of new technology initiatives; changes in business strategies and decisions; competition from our competitors; our ability to recruit and retain an experienced management team; changes in raw material prices and availability;
restrictions on government spending resulting in fewer sales to one of our largest customers; our debt restrictions on spending; our ability to protect our patents, copyrights and trademarks; our reliance on furniture dealers to produce sales;
lawsuits arising from patents, copyrights and trademark infringements; violations of environmental laws and regulations; potential labor disruptions; adequacy of our insurance policies; the availability of future capital; and currency rate
fluctuations. The factors identified above are believed to be important factors (but not necessarily all of the important factors) that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statement.
Unpredictable or unknown factors could also have material adverse effects on us. All forward-looking statements included in this Form 10-Q are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing cautionary statements. Except as required under the
Federal securities laws and rules regulations of the SEC, we undertake no obligation to update, amend, or clarify forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

|ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
|------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

We
provided a discussion of our market risk in Part II, Item 7A, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007. During the first six months of 2008, there was no substantive change in our market risk except for the
items noted below. This discussion should be read in conjunction with Part II, Item 7A, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.

During the normal course of business, we are routinely subjected to market risk associated with interest rate movements and foreign currency exchange rate movements. Interest rate risk arises from our debt obligations
and related interest rate hedge agreements. Foreign currency exchange rate risk arises from our non-U.S. operations and purchases of inventory from foreign suppliers.

We also have risk in our exposure to certain material and transportation costs. Our largest raw material costs are for steel and plastics. Steel is the primary raw material used in the manufacture of our products. The
price for steel has significantly increased recently. The prices of plastic, another significant raw material used in the manufacture of our products, are sensitive to the cost of oil, which has increased significantly in recent history. We continue
to work to attempt to offset these price changes in raw materials and transportation costs through our global sourcing initiatives, cost improvements and product price increases.

Interest Rate Risk

We have variable rate debt obligations that are denominated in U.S. dollars. A change in
interest rates impacts the interest incurred and cash paid on our variable-rate debt obligations. The weighted average rate as of June 30, 2008 was 4.2%. The weighted average rate as of June 30, 2007 was 7.1%.

We use interest rate hedge agreements for other than trading purposes in order to manage our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates on our variable-rate debt. In May
of 2008, we entered into four interest rate swap agreements in order to manage our interest rate risk. Each agreement hedges a notional amount of $150.0 million of our $500.0 million revolving credit facility. Two of the agreements are effective
from June 2009 through June 2010 and the other two are effective June 2010 through June 2011. We also have an interest rate cap agreement that converts $200 million of our variable-rate debt to a fixed-rate basis, utilizing the three-month London
Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, as a floating rate reference. Fluctuations in LIBOR affect both our net financial instrument position and the amount of cash to be paid or received by us, if any, under these agreements.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

We manufacture our
products in the United States, Canada and Italy, and sell our products primarily in those markets as well as in other European countries. Our foreign sales and certain expenses are transacted in foreign currencies. Our production costs, profit
margins and competitive position are affected by the strength of the currencies in countries where we manufacture or purchase goods relative to the strength of the currencies in countries where our products are sold. Additionally, as we report
currency in the U.S. dollar, our financial position is affected by the strength of the currencies in countries where we have operations relative to the strength of the U.S. dollar. The principal foreign currencies in which we conduct business are
the Canadian dollar and the Euro. Approximately 14.9% of our revenues for the first half of 2008 and 12.5% in the same period for 2007, and 40.0% of our cost of goods sold for the first half of 2008 and 38.8% in the same period for 2007, were
denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations resulted in a $0.1 million transaction loss for the second quarter of 2008 and a $1.7 million transaction loss for the same period of 2007. The $1.7
million loss was largely due to the strengthening Canadian dollar. For the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, foreign exchange rate fluctuations included in other income resulted in a $0.5 million translation loss and a $2.3 million
translation loss, respectively.

##### Table of Contents

From time to time, we enter into foreign currency forward exchange contracts and foreign currency option contracts for
other than trading purposes in order to manage our exposure to foreign exchange rates associated with short-term operating receivables of a Canadian subsidiary that are payable by our U.S. operations. The terms of these contracts are generally less
than a year. Changes in the fair value of such contracts are reported in earnings in the period the value of the contract changes. As of June 30, 2008, the Company had no outstanding foreign currency contracts.



|ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
|------- | -----------------------

Evaluation of disclosure
controls and procedures. We, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure
controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as of the end of the period covered by this report (June 30, 2008) (Disclosure Controls). Based upon the Disclosure Controls evaluation, our
principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that the Disclosure Controls are effective in reaching a reasonable level of assurance that (i) information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or
submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms and (ii) information required to be disclosed by
us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as
appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting. Our principal executive
officer and principal financial officer also conducted an evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting (Internal Control) to determine whether any changes in Internal Control occurred during the quarter ended June 30,
2008 that have materially affected or which are reasonably likely to materially affect Internal Control. Based on that evaluation, there has been no such change during the quarter ended June 30, 2008.

Repurchases of Equity Securities

The following is a summary of share repurchase activity during the three months ended June 30, 2008.

On August 17, 2005, our board of directors approved a stock repurchase program (the Options Proceeds Program), whereby it authorized us
to purchase shares of our common stock in the open market using the cash proceeds received by us upon exercise of outstanding options to purchase shares of our common stock.

On February 2, 2006, our board of directors approved an additional stock repurchase program, pursuant to which we are authorized to purchase up to $50.0 million of our common stock in the open market, through
privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise. On February 4, 2008, our board of directors expanded this previously authorized $50.0 million stock repurchase program by an additional $50.0 million.
