How to Vote FOR Sun Capital's Nominees

Welcome


FURNITURE BRANDS SHAREHOLDERS - PROTECT YOUR INVESTMENT – VOTE THE GOLD PROXY CARD TODAY TO ELECT DIRECTORS WHO WILL ACT IN YOUR BEST INTERESTS

SCSF Equities, LLC (together with its affiliates, “Sun Capital”) seeks your support to elect our minority slate of nominees, composed of Alan Schwartz, Ira Kaplan, and T. Scott King, to Furniture Brands’ Board of Directors at its 2008 Annual Meeting.  Our nominees are highly qualified and are committed to acting in the best interests of, and delivering enhanced value to, all shareholders.

Sun Capital is taking this step because we believe that Furniture Brands’ latest turnaround plan is not enough to rectify the Company’s continued deterioration in financial performance, and that the Board has failed to appropriately consider at least two credible value creating proposals to acquire the Company.  Instead, the current Board has, in our view, continued to pursue a failed strategy that has led to substantial stock price declines. 

As the second largest shareholder, our interests are aligned with that of all Furniture Brands shareholders and we believe this change is necessary in order for shareholders to realize the true value of their investment. 

We urge you sign, date and return the GOLD proxy card accompanying our proxy materials today with a vote FOR our nominees.
