DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES
This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Form S-3 Registration Statement
(the "Post-Effective Amendment") is being filed to deregister the remaining
unsold shares of common stock of the total 4,900,000 shares of common stock of
Mohawk Industries, Inc. (the "Registrant") covered by the Registration Statement
on Form S-3 originally filed on October 23, 1998 and declared effective on
November 12, 1998 (File No. 333-66061) (the "Registration Statement"). This is
due to the expiration of the obligation of the Registrant to maintain the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement under the Stock Restriction and
Registration Rights Agreement dated October 22, 1998 among the Registrant and
the selling stockholders identified in the prospectus, which is a part of the
Registration Statement. Accordingly, the Registrant hereby files this
Post-Effective Amendment to the Registration Statement to deregister all unsold
shares originally registered by the Registration Statement. Of the total
4,900,000 shares originally registered by the Registration Statement, 3,540,110
shares remained unsold as of November 7, 2000.
