The recent experimental discovery of the exotic ``pentaquark" resonance Θ^+(1540) with strangeness S=+1 and very narrow width (earlier predicted in the topological soliton model) triggered an avalanche of alternative explanations in terms of special features of quark structure, isospin selection rules, quasimolecular kaon-nucleon correlation etc. Here we suggest that the narrow width can result from a generic mechanism of the redistribution of the widths of overlapping resonances due to their coupling through few common decay channels. The underlying universal dynamics appear when N unstable intrinsic states with identical quantum numbers and ratio γ/D≥ 1 of their bare widths to energy spacings can decay into k
