JOINT FILING AGREEMENT
Pursuant to Rule 13d-1(k) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, the undersigned members of the "Johnson Family Group" hereby agree
to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission Amendment No. 3 to
Schedule 13D (the "Amendment"). The Schedule 13D, as amended by the Amendment,
reports that members of the Johnson Family Group believe it is in the best
interests of Hastings Manufacturing Company ("Hastings"), its shareholders,
its employees and the local community that Hastings remain an independently
owned corporation and further states that Johnson Family Group members
intend to oppose any takeover attempt that would result in Hastings no
longer remaining an independently owned corporation and which is not in
the best interest of Hastings, its shareholders, its employees or the local
community. The undersigned agree that the Amendment is filed on behalf
of each of them. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts,
which taken together shall constitute one and the same document.
