"We are on the back stretch of the Corral West-BTWW integration, and I look forward to having one unified vision for BTWW," said Mr. Hager.

He continued, "Our business has a very strong and profitable core, and we remain committed to providing a solid channel of distribution for our valued vendor-partners.

Furthermore, I have the utmost confidence in our management team, both corporate and store-level, to execute our refreshed strategic game plan.

While we are in a challenging near-term retail environment, I am confident that continued close collaboration between our employees, vendors and other constituents will ensure the successful long-term prospects for the Company."

Support from the Company's vendor-partners following Mr. Hager's appointment has also been tremendous. "We would like to congratulate Larry in his new responsibilities and wish him only the best.

Historically, Larry has been a man of his word and a pleasure to work with," said Randy Watson, CEO of Justin Brands, one of the leading brands in BTWW's stores.

Beth Cross, CEO of Ariat International, added, "Larry Hager is a strong, experienced leader, and will be an excellent CEO of BTWW. He has earned the respect and trust of the many key partners of the BTWW group and the industry as a whole.

We look forward to supporting him and his team as they invest to create a unique shopping experience for the western and work wear consumer."
