Item
      5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not
      applicable.
Item
      6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
As
      permitted by the Iowa Business Corporation Act (the
"IBCA
"),
      the
      Articles of Incorporation of HNI Corporation, (the
"Articles
"),
      provide that no director shall be personally liable to the Corporation or any
      shareholder for money damages for any action, or failure to take action, except
      for: (i) the amount of financial benefit received by a director to which the
      director is not entitled; (ii) an intentional infliction of harm on the
      Corporation or its shareholders; (iii) a violation of Section 490.833 of the
      IBCA; or (iv) an intentional violation of criminal law. While the Articles
      provide protection from awards for monetary damages for breaches of the duty
      of
      care, they do not eliminate the director
's
      duty
      of care. Accordingly, the Articles will not affect the availability of equitable
      remedies, such as an injunction, based on a director
's
      breach
      of the duty of care.
In
        addition, the By-laws of HNI Corporation (the
"By-laws
")
        provide that: (i) an officer of the
Corporation
will not
        be liable as an officer to the Corporation or its shareholders for any decision
        to take
or
        not to
        take action, or any failure to take any action, if the duties of the officer
        are
        performed in compliance with the standards of conduct for officers prescribed
        in
        the IBCA; and (ii) that the Corporation may indemnify a director or officer
        of
        the Corporation who is a party to a proceeding against liability incurred
        by
        such director or officer in the proceeding to the maximum extent permitted
        by
        and in the manner prescribed by the IBCA, including the advancement of
        expenses.
The
      By-laws further provide that the Corporation may enter into indemnification
      agreements consistent with the IBCA with each director of the Corporation and
      with such officers of the Corporation as the Board of Directors of the
      Corporation deems appropriate. The Corporation has entered into agreements
      with
      its directors and with certain officers agreeing to indemnify them against
      certain liabilities to the fullest extent permitted under Iowa law. The
      Corporation also has director and officer liability insurance in the amount
      of
      $60,000,000, under which each director and each of certain officers of the
      Corporation is insured against certain liabilities.

Item
      9. Undertakings.
(a)
The
      undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1)
To
      file,
      during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective
      amendment to this registration statement:
(i)
To
      include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of
      1933;
(ii)
To
      reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date
      of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment
      thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change
      in the information set forth in the
registration
      statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
any
      increase or decrease in the volume of securities offered (if the total dollar
      value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and
      any
      deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range
      may
      be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to
      Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent
      no
      more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth
      in
      the
"Calculation
      of Registration Fee
"
      table
      in the effective registration statement;
(iii)
To
      include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
      previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to
      such information in the registration statement;
Provided,
      however
,
      that
      paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) of this section do not apply if the
      registration statement is on Form S-8, and the information required to be
      included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in
      reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant
      to
      section 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are
      incorporated by reference in the registration statement.
(2)
That,
      for
      the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933,
      each
      such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
      relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
      at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona
      fide
offering
      thereof.
(3)
To
      remove
      from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities
      being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the
      offering.
(6)
That,
      for
      the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities
      Act
      of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the
      securities:
The
      undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities
      of
      the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless
      of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if
      the
      securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the
      following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the
      purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such
      purchaser:
(i)
Any
      preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating
      to
      the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
(ii)
Any
      free
      writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the
      undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned
      registrant;
(iii)
The
      portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing
      material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided
      by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
(iv)
Any
      other
      communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned
      registrant to the purchaser.
(b)
The
      undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining
      any
      liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
      registrant
's
      annual
      report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
      1934
      (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan
's
      annual
      report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that
      is
      incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to
      be a
      new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein,
      and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
      initial bona fide offering thereof.
(h)
Insofar
      as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933
      (the
"Act
")
      may be
      permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant
      pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been
      advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
      indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
      therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
      such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred
      or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the
      successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
      director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
      registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
      has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
      jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
      policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication
      of
      such issue.

The
      Registrant.
Pursuant
      to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant certifies
      that
      it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements
      for
      filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this registration statement to be signed
      on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the city of
      Muscatine, state of Iowa, on this 8th day of May, 2007.
