On December 21, 1995, Coachman Incorporated (the "Corporation") purchased
Olympic Mills Corporation ("Olympic"). Subsequent to that time Olympic
became the major asset and operation of the Corporation. A major focus of
the Corporation's Financial Statements and Public Reporting will be the
acquisition of Olympic. For the past five years the Certifying Accountant
for Olympic had been KPMG Peat Marwick LLP. Due to the change in focus
the Board of Directors elected to change the Certifying Accountant for the
Corporation to KPMG Peat Marwick LLP. This change, along with the changes
in accounting required by the acquisition, has necessitated the Corporation's
request for addition time to file the required Form 10-K.
