Ralph Lauren Announces Updates to Board of Directors<\/b><\/p>\n

NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nRalph Lauren Corporation (NYSE: RL) today announced that, as part of its Board of Directors evolution strategy, it has approved the appointment of Angela Ahrendts as new Lead Independent Director following the Company\u2019s 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Ahrendts has served on the Ralph Lauren Board since August 2018 and is currently the Finance Committee chair and a member of the Nominating, Governance, and Sustainability Committee.<\/p>\n

\nAhrendts succeeds Hubert Joly, who, after 16 years of service, will not seek reelection to the Company\u2019s Board of Directors. Joly was appointed to the Ralph Lauren Board in June 2009 and has served as Lead Independent Director since 2021. He currently sits on the Talent, Culture & Total Rewards and Finance Committees. Joly played a key role in the Board\u2019s evolution, resulting in its broadened diversity of backgrounds, skills and experiences.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cHubert has been an integral part of our board and has been instrumental in guiding and supporting our strategy, while embodying the passion and dedication that define our brand. We are grateful for his unwavering support and thoughtful leadership as well as the care he has shown for our Company and our teams,\u201d said Ralph Lauren, Executive Chairman and Chief Creative Officer.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cAngela has consistently offered valuable guidance and brought her perspective as a respected innovator in the industry. We look forward to continuing to benefit from her leadership and contributions as our new Lead Independent Director,\u201d Ralph Lauren added.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cWe are proud to have a Board comprised of deep, unique and differentiated experiences, all of which continue to contribute to our strength and durability as a business. I am grateful for Hubert\u2019s guidance over the years, particularly in helping drive our Company\u2019s performance and transformation and I look forward to working closely with Angela in her expanded role,\u201d said Patrice Louvet, President & Chief Executive Officer.<\/p>\n

\nWith Mr. Joly\u2019s departure, the Ralph Lauren board will be comprised of 11 directors. Ms. Ahrendts\u2019s appointment as the new Lead Independent Director will be effective following her re-election as a director at the 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, taking place on Thursday, July 31, 2025.<\/p>\n
