NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 10-K, 11-K,
20-F, 10-Q, N-SAR or the transition report portion thereof could not be
filed within the prescribed time period.
Motor Coach Industries International, Inc. (the "Company") is unable
to complete the required analysis of its results of operations for the
fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2000 prior to November 14, 2000. As a
result, the Company is not in a position to file timely its Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2000. The
Company will file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q within the five
calendar day period following the prescribed due date as permitted by Rule
12b-25(b)(2) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended.
PART IV
OTHER INFORMATION
(1) Name and telephone number of person to contact in regard to this
notification:
Horst Sieben (847) 285-2000

(Name) (Area Code) (Telephone Number)
(2) Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or
15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the
Investment Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such
shorter period that the registrant was required to file such report(s)
been filed? If the answer is no, identify report(s).
|X| Yes |_| No
(3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of
operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be
reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report
or portion thereof?
|X| Yes |_| No
If so: attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both
narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why
a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.
On October 6, 2000, the Company announced that it expected third
quarter results to be materially lower than previously anticipated. During
the last two weeks of September, the Company experienced unanticipated
quality and delivery problems with some of its component part suppliers
which resulted in the Company's inability to deliver coaches originally
scheduled for delivery during the quarter. The Company also announced that,
in response to softer market conditions that are expected to continue into
2001, it is conducting a review of all of its operations with the intention
of announcing a restructuring plan for its operations during the fourth
quarter. Because the Company has not completed the required analysis for
its results of operations for the third quarter ended September 30, 2000,
the Company cannot provide a reasonable estimate of the quantitative
changes to be made to its results of operations.
