We look forward to working with him closely and gaining insights from his unique perspective as we continue growing demand for our 10 global brands."

Most recently Cahilly served as chief strategic and financial officer of the NBA, where he was responsible for setting strategic priorities and direction globally, following 12 years at Goldman, Sachs & Co. where he served as a partner and the global co-head of media and telecommunications, as well as a member of the firm's Internet Investment Committee. Prior to that, Cahilly was a vice president of Lehman Brothers Inc. in New York. He holds a Juris Doctorate from Harvard Law School.

There is no other information required to be disclosed pursuant to LR9.6.13R in respect of Cahilly.
