Dear Stockholders:
Restoration Hardware Holdings, Inc. (RH) is providing an update concerning its Proxy Statement relating to RHs 2016 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (Annual Meeting) to provide a clarification in response to a report recently issued by a proxy advisory firm.
RH has previously announced its Board of Directors is engaged in an active search to obtain an additional independent director in order to replace outgoing director Tommy Mottola who has announced his intention to leave the Board prior to the Annual Meeting.
RH has been engaged in an active search process and expects to name a new director in the near term. In the meantime, pending the announcement of any appointment, RH affirms its intention to appoint an independent director under applicable NYSE rules who has no material financial, personal, business, or other relationship with RH that a reasonable person could conclude could potentially influence boardroom objectivity. RH expects to complete this appointment as soon as practicable but in any event not later than six months after the date of the Annual Meeting.
Restoration Hardware Holdings, Inc.
