Holliman also announced that Tom Tilley, who has been serving as President and Chief Executive Officer of Thomasville since 2003, will serve as President of Henredon Furniture Industries, also a subsidiary of Furniture Brands. Steve McKee, who has served as President of Henredon since early 2004, has resigned to pursue other interests.

Holliman continued, "Tom Tilley is an outstanding manager with a strong background in product development in the premium end, and great respect among the leaders of the furniture industry. Henredon is the industry leader at the premium end, and the company will benefit greatly from Tom's experience."

In related moves, the Company also announced the following:
Steve Gane, who has served as President of HBF since 1997, will become Executive Vice-President and Chief Operating Officer of Thomasville.

Charles C. Bell, who has served as Vice President of Sales and Marketing of HBF since 1997, has been promoted to President of HBF.

Holliman concluded: "They maintain a keen focus on management development in their own companies, but they are also committed to bringing in management talent from other industries where appropriate. Bringing Nancy Webster into Thomasville and moving Tom Tilley to Henredon is part of their continuing focus on putting the right people in the right jobs to create an organizational structure that drives results."
