VANCOUVER, British Columbia–(BUSINESS WIRE)–lululemon athletica inc. (NASDAQ:LULU) today announced strategic changes
to its organizational structure that further elevate and reinforce the
Company’s design and innovation-driven brand focus.

Lee Holman, formerly Senior Vice President, Women’s, has been appointed
as lululemon’s Executive Vice President, Creative Director, effective
immediately. In this new role, Mr. Holman will oversee both Men’s and

“Standing out requires a fierce commitment to constant innovation in
functional performance. Our unwavering dedication to a singular design
vision and craftsmanship has made us the global market leader in the

As a result of these changes, lululemon has eliminated the role of Chief
Product Officer. Tara Poseley, who joined the Company in October 2013 as

build-out of strong product, innovation, and merchandising teams, and we
wish her continued success in the future,” said Mr. Potdevin.

Men’s and Women’s design under a singular creative vision, strengthening
the design ethos of the brand. Mr. Holman joined lululemon in 2014 with
