No Shareholder Action Required at this Time

LL Flooring Holdings, Inc.

Consistent with its fiduciary duties and in consultation with its financial and legal advisors, the LL Flooring Board of Directors will carefully review and consider the proposal in the context of LL Flooring’s strategic plan to determine the course of action that it believes is in the best interests of the Company and all of its shareholders.

The Company believes that the long-term fundamentals of LL Flooring’s business are strong and believes that it is successfully executing on its six core growth strategies.

LL Flooring’s Board and management team believe that with a strong balance sheet and liquidity, the Company is well-positioned for the future.

LL Flooring shareholders do not need to take any action at this time. LL Flooring does not intend to comment further on Cabinet To Go’s unsolicited proposal until the Board has completed its review.
