- Chief Operating Officer Dr Heiko Schäfer appointed CEO on a provisional
basis

- Supervisory Board Chairman Uwe Schröder temporarily joins the company's
Management Board

Hamburg, 22 September 2016. Dieter Holzer, the Chief Executive Officer
(CEO) of TOM TAILOR Holding AG, leaves the company's Management Board with
immediate effect for personal reasons by mutual agreement with the
Supervisory Board. The Supervisory Board has appointed Management Board
member Dr Heiko Schäfer as the new CEO on a provisional basis. Dr Schäfer
has served as the company's Chief Operating Officer (COO) since December
2015. He has many years' experience in the fashion industry and a strong
track record in the management of cross-functional transformation projects.
He will manage the company alongside Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Thomas
Dressendörfer. They will jointly further advance the initiated initiatives
to sustainably improve the company's profitability.

In addition, the Supervisory Board has delegated its Chairman, Uwe
Schröder, in accordance with Section 105 (2) of the German Stock
Corporation Act (AktG), to join the company's Management Board for a
maximum period of one year. He will assume responsibility on an interim
basis for issues related to products, sales and the collections. Jerome
Griffith has been elected as the new Chairman of the Supervisory Board, of
which he was already a member. He was also the president and CEO of TUMI
INC. The Supervisory Board will initiate a process to appoint a new CEO
without delay. This process should be completed by the time of the next
Annual General Meeting in the spring of 2017.

"Dieter Holzer had a substantial impact on the dynamic growth of TOM TAILOR
over a 10-year period and has decisively influenced the company's
development. He led TOM TAILOR to the stock exchange and expanded the scale
of the company to a new level," said Uwe Schröder. "I thank him on behalf
of the Supervisory Board and also personally for his many years of service
with our company and wish him all the best for the future."
