PROPOSAL 3:
RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF AUDITORS
Who is responsible for the selection of the independent auditor?
The Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention and
oversight of the independent auditor that is retained to audit our financial statements.
Who has the Audit Committee selected as the independent registered public accounting firm?
The Audit Committee has selected Ernst & Young LLP as our independent auditor for the
2014 fiscal year. Ernst & Young LLP has served in that capacity since October 2001. The Audit
Committee and the Board of Directors believe that the continued retention of Ernst & Young LLP is
in the best interests of Dollar General and our shareholders.
Will representatives of Ernst & Young LLP attend the annual meeting?
Representatives of Ernst & Young LLP have been requested and are expected to attend the
annual meeting. These representatives will have the opportunity to make a statement if they so desire
and are expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions.
What does the Board of Directors recommend?
Our Board unanimously recommends that you vote FOR the ratification of Ernst &
Young LLP as our independent auditor for the 2014 fiscal year. The Audit Committee is not bound by
a vote either for or against the firm. If the shareholders do not ratify this appointment, our Audit
Committee will consider that result in selecting our independent auditor in the future.
