Can I change my mind after voting my shares?
You may revoke your proxy at any time before it is used by (i) submitting a written notice to the
Company, (ii) delivering a valid proxy with a later date, (iii) providing a later dated vote by telephone
or on the Internet, or (iv) voting by ballot at the Annual Meeting.
What is “householding’’and how does it affect me?
Foot Locker has adopted a procedure called “householding’’for mailing the annual report and
proxy statement that is intended to reduce our printing costs and postage fees. Under this procedure,
shareholders of record who share the same address and same last name will receive only one copy of
our annual report and proxy statement unless any of the shareholders at that address notifies us that
they wish to continue receiving individual copies.
We will continue to mail a proxy card to each shareholder of record. The householding procedure
will not in any way affect the mailing of dividend checks.
If you are a shareholder of record, you may call our transfer agent, The Bank of New York, at
1-866-857-2216, or write to the Corporate Secretary at Foot Locker, Inc., 112 West 34th Street,
New York, New York 10120 if you would prefer to receive multiple copies of the Company’s proxy
statement and annual report. We will send additional copies to you promptly upon request. You may
also contact the transfer agent or the Corporate Secretary and request householding if you are an
eligible shareholder of record receiving multiple copies of the annual report and proxy statement.
Shareholders who hold their shares in street name through a broker, bank or other nominee, may
request additional copies of the annual report and proxy statement or may request householding by
notifying their broker, bank, or other nominee.
Who pays the cost of this proxy solicitation?
Foot Locker will pay for the cost of the solicitation of proxies, including the preparation, printing
and mailing of the proxy materials.
Proxies may be solicited, without additional compensation, by directors, officers or employees of
the Company by mail, telephone, facsimile, in person or otherwise. We will request banks, brokers and
other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to deliver proxy material to the beneficial owners of the
Company’s Common Stock and obtain their voting instructions, and we will reimburse those firms for
their expenses under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and The New York Stock
Exchange. In addition, we have retained Innisfree M&A Incorporated to assist us in the solicitation of
proxies for a fee of $10,000 plus out-of-pocket expenses.
Is it possible to access the proxy statement and annual report on the Internet?
Our proxy statement and annual report are located on our corporate web site at www.footlocker-
inc.com.
Many shareholders can access future proxy statements and annual reports on the Internet instead
of receiving paper copies in the mail. If you are a shareholder of record, you may give your consent to
access these materials in the future on the Internet by going to https://www.giveconsent.com/fl and
following the instructions on that site. If you vote by telephone or on the Internet, you may consent to
access these materials in the future on the Internet by following the instructions provided on those
voting sites. If you choose to access future annual reports and proxy statements on the Internet, you will
receive a proxy card in the mail next year with instructions containing the Internet address for those
materials. Your choice will remain in effect until you advise us otherwise in writing.
Beneficial shareholders who hold their shares in street name through a broker, bank, or other
nominee should refer to the information provided by their broker, bank or nominee for instructions on
how to elect access to future annual reports and proxy statements on the Internet. Most brokers and
bankers whose beneficial shareholders elect electronic access will send an e-mail message to those
shareholders next year containing the Internet address for access to the proxy statement and annual
report.
