Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas for reorganization under
Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code.&#160;&#160;The six companies that filed for
voluntary protection are Palco, Britt Lumber Co., Inc., Scotia Development LLC,
Salmon Creek LLC and Scotia Inn Inc. (collectively, the Palco Debtors) and

plan.&#160;&#160;In addition, the Palco Debtors as a group and Scopac each filed
separate alternative stand-alone plans of reorganization.&#160;&#160;The fourth
plan of reorganization was filed by Mendocino Redwood Company, LLC (MRC) and
Marathon Structured Finance Fund L.P. (Marathon).&#160;&#160;The final plan, the
Noteholder plan, was filed by the indenture trustee on behalf of the holders of
Scopac&#8217;s Timber Notes.&#160;&#160;The MRC/Marathon plan would reorganize and
continue the businesses of the Debtors.&#160;&#160;The Noteholder plan
effectively provides for an auction of Scopac&#8217;s timberlands to the highest
bidder, but does not address the Palco Debtors.&#160;&#160;The MRC/Marathon Plan
would result in the loss entirely of the Company&#8217;s indirect equity interests in
Palco and Scopac and the Noteholder plan would likely result in the loss
entirely of such equity interests.</font></div>

MAXXAM
REPORTS RESULTS FOR FIRST QUARTER OF 2008
HOUSTON,
Texas (May 14, 2008) - MAXXAM Inc. (AMEX: MXM) reported a net loss of $13.9
million, or $2.58 loss per share, for the first quarter of 2008, compared to a
net loss of $12.3 million, or $2.33 loss per share for the same period a year
ago.  Net sales for the first quarter of 2008 totaled $21.7 million,
compared to $28.7 million in the first quarter of 2007.
REAL
ESTATE OPERATIONS
Real
estate sales and operating losses for the first quarter of 2008 were $8.9
million and $1.2 million, respectively, as compared $11.6 million and $0.6
million, respectively, in the first quarter of 2007, primarily as a result of
lower sales at the Company's Fountain Hills development.
RACING
OPERATIONS
Net sales
increased slightly for the Company's racing operations in the first quarter of
2008 as compared to the perior year period.  Operating losses of $0.8
million for the first quarter of 2008 increased slightly from $0.6 million in
the prior year period, principally due to increased operating expenses at Sam
Houston Race Park.
FOREST
PRODUCTS OPERATIONS
As
discussed below, on January 18, 2007, The Pacific Lumber Company (Palco) and its
wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, the Debtors), including Scotia Pacific
Company LLC (Scopac) filed for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy
Code.  As a result, the Company deconsolidated the Debtors' financial
results beginning January 19, 2007, and began reporting its investment in the
Debtors using the cost method.  Accordingly, the Company's
consolidated financial results reported herein includes activity for the Debtors
only from January 1, 2007 through January 18, 2007.
CORPORATE
AND OTHER
The
Corporate segment's operating losses represent general and administrative
expenses that are not specifically attributable to the Company's operating
segments.  The Corporate segment's operating losses increased $2.7
million in the first quarter of 2008, as compared to the prior year period,
primarily due to changes in stock-based compensation expense resulting from
fluctuations in the market price of the Company's common stock and substantial
costs related to the forest products' bankruptcy proceedings (including legal
fees and unreimbursed services).
Consolidated
investment, interest and other income declined $3.8 million in the first quarter
of 2008, as compared to the prior year period, primarily from lower returns on
marketable securities and other short-term investments.
MAXXAM 
has previously announced that it may from time to time purchase shares of its
Common Stock on national exchanges or in privately negotiated
transactions.
In this regard, in March 2008, the Company
purchased 687,480 shares of its Common Stock from two affiliated institutional
holders in a privately negotiated transaction for an aggregate cost of $20.1
million.
REORGANIZATION
PROCEEDINGS OF PALCO AND ITS WHOLLY OWNED SUBSIDIARIES
Prior to
the issuance of this press release, MAXXAM filed its first quarter report on
Form 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The Notes to
Financial Statements and other sections of the Form 10-Q discuss the impact of
Palco and Scopac on the Company's consolidated financial results.
On
January 18, 2007, the Debtors, Palco and its five wholly owned subsidiaries,
including Scopac, filed separate voluntary petitions in the United States
Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas for reorganization under
Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code.  The six companies that filed for
voluntary protection are Palco, Britt Lumber Co., Inc., Scotia Development LLC,
Salmon Creek LLC and Scotia Inn Inc. (collectively, the Palco Debtors) and
Scopac.  The six bankruptcy cases are being jointly administered, with
the Debtors managing their businesses in the ordinary course as
debtors-in-possession subject to the control and supervision of the Bankruptcy
Court.
On the
January 30, 2008 deadline established by the Bankruptcy Court, five plans of
reorganization were filed.   The Debtors as a group filed a joint
plan.  In addition, the Palco Debtors as a group and Scopac each filed
separate alternative stand-alone plans of reorganization.  The fourth
plan of reorganization was filed by Mendocino Redwood Company, LLC (MRC) and
Marathon Structured Finance Fund L.P. (Marathon).  The final plan, the
Noteholder plan, was filed by the indenture trustee on behalf of the holders of
Scopac's Timber Notes.  The MRC/Marathon plan would reorganize and
continue the businesses of the Debtors.  The Noteholder plan
effectively provides for an auction of Scopac's timberlands to the highest
bidder, but does not address the Palco Debtors.  The MRC/Marathon Plan
would result in the loss entirely of the Company's indirect equity interests in
Palco and Scopac and the Noteholder plan would likely result in the loss
entirely of such equity interests.
On May 1,
2008, MRC, Marathon, the Company, and the Palco Debtors and other Company
subsidiaries entered into a settlement term sheet.    Scopac
was not a party to the Settlement Term Sheet.  Pursuant to the terms
of the settlement term sheet, the Palco Debtors have withdrawn the Joint Plan
and the Palco Debtors' alternative plan.  The Company and Palco
Debtors also agreed, among other things, to express support for and use their
best efforts to defend the MRC/Marathon plan, and use their best efforts to
oppose any competing plan of reorganization.  A summary of the
settlement term sheet is set forth in Note 1 to the Company's first quarter Form
10-Q, including various provisions that are dependent on approval of the
Bankruptcy Court or confirmation of the MRC/Marathon plan by the Bankruptcy
Court.
There is
substantial uncertainty as to which plan of reorganization, if any, will be
confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court.  If no plan is confirmed, the
Bankruptcy Court may elect to convert the Bankruptcy Cases to a Chapter 7
liquidation proceeding. The confirmation hearing, at which the Bankruptcy Court
will consider the remaining plans of reorganization, began in April 2008 and has
not yet concluded.  The outcome of the Bankruptcy Cases is impossible
to predict and could have a material adverse effect on the businesses of the
Debtors, on the interests of creditors, and on the Company.
Company
press releases may contain statements that constitute "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995.  The company cautions that any such forward-looking
statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve significant
risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may vary materially from those
expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements as a result of various
factors.
