                            DEREGISTRATION OF SHARES


         This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement on
Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-34062) (the "Registration Statement") is filed by
Sun Communities, Inc. (the "Company") to deregister 3,686 shares of the 181,362
shares of the Company's common stock which were previously registered pursuant
to this Registration Statement for resale by certain selling stockholders. The
Company is seeking to deregister these shares because such shares were not
issued to one of the Selling Stockholders as previously anticipated. As a result
of this deregistration, the total number of shares of common stock registered
pursuant to this Registration Statement is 177,676 shares. The Company has filed
a final Prospectus with the Commission under Rule 424 (b) to reflect the correct
number of shares registered.
