        <footnote id="F1">On March 11, 2004, the reporting person was granted options to purchase 2,000 Common Shares (with tandem tax withholding rights) under the Invacare Corporation 2003 Performance Plan in reliance upon an exemption provided by Rule 16b-3. Due to a technical error, the footnotes were inadvertently dropped from the reporting person's Form 4 when reporting this transaction, filed on March 15, 2004.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">The reporting person still holds previously reported options to buy 17,406 Common Shares (with tandem tax withholding rights) under the Invacare Corporation 1994 Performance Plan, in reliance upon the exemption provided by Rule 16b-3.  All options were granted between March 2, 1999 and December 15, 2003, at exercise prices between $16.03 and $33.8438 per share, will expire between March 2, 2009 and December 15, 2013 and became or will become exercisable between December 31, 1999 and March 31, 2007.</footnote>
