CORRECTION -- Lakeland Industries

RONKONKOMA, NY -- (MARKET WIRE) -- July 31, 2006 -- In the news release, "Lakeland Industries Declares a 10% Dividend Payable in Stock," issued June 29, 2006 by Lakeland Industries (NASDAQ: LAKE), we are advised by the company that the fifth sentence of the second paragraph should read "Therefore, the Ex-Dividend date has been set by NASDAQ on July 31, 2006; with one (1) share issued for every 10 shares held by a stockholder on the ex-dividend date (7/31/06)" rather than "Therefore, the Ex-Dividend date should be set by NASDAQ on July 29, 2006; with one (1) share issued for every 10 shares held by a stockholder on the ex-dividend date." In the third paragraph, the first sentence should read "To illustrate, the closing price of Lakeland's stock was $14.29 per share on July 28, 2006 and the opening price on July 31, 2006 was $12.99" rather than "To illustrate, if the closing price of Lakeland's stock is $16 per share on September 1, 2006, the opening price on September 5, 2006 will be approximately $14.40" as originally issued. The last sentence of the third paragraph, which contains new information, was not in the original release. Complete corrected text follows.

Lakeland Industries Declares a 10% Dividend Payable in Stock

RONKONKOMA, NY -- July 31, 2006 -- Lakeland Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ: LAKE), a leading manufacturer of industrial protective clothing, announced on 6/29/06 that it would award a 10% dividend in common stock.

The measure is expected to further broaden Lakeland's shareholder base by making the stock more affordable for individual investors by making it easier for them to purchase stock in round lots. This dividend will further increase the number of shares issued and outstanding, which management believes will aid in increased liquidity and trading volume. The Record Date for the above announced stock dividend will be August 1, 2006. The payable date for the dividend will be September 1, 2006. Therefore, the Ex-Dividend date has been set by NASDAQ on July 31, 2006; with one (1) share issued for every 10 shares held by a stockholder on the ex-dividend date (7/31/06). Any fractional shares will be half adjusted.

To illustrate, the closing price of Lakeland's stock was $14.29 per share on July 28, 2006 and the opening price on July 31, 2006 was $12.99. While the dividend will increase the number of shares owned by 10%, the price per share has been reduced by approximately 10%, immediately after the payable date. Of course, market factors will influence the price before and after the dividend is payable. The extra shares will be delivered on the payable date of September 1, 2006.
