Maax Inc. Completes a US$45.5 Million Private Placement

SAINTE-MARIE, QUEBEC--NOVEMBER 12, 2001 - 08:31 EST
MAAX Inc. announces that it has completed a
private placement of US$45.5 million senior unsecured notes issued
to U.S. investors. The notes bear interest at the annual rate of
6.7% and are fully redeemable upon maturity in October 2008. The
proceeds from this placement were used entirely for the repayment
of a portion of the Company's existing credit facilities.

Management of MAAX Inc. estimates that this financing arrangement
provides the Company with a fixed-rate capital injection and
improves its capital structure. In addition, the Company now has
more than CAN$100 million in unused credit facilities to finance
its future growth.

The agent for MAAX in connection with the private placement of the
notes was RBC Dominion Securities Corporation.

products and accessories, spas and kitchen cabinets. The Company
currently employs 2,700 people in its 23 plants and seven
distribution centres across Canada, the United States and Europe.
