Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing
On November 8, 2006, Williams-Sonoma, Inc. (the “Company”) received notice from the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) that, due to the resignation of Jeanne P. Jackson from the Board of Directors of the Company, the Company did not have three members on its Audit and Finance Committee and, accordingly, was not in compliance with Section 303A.07(a) of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. Section 303A.07(a) requires the audit committee of NYSE listed companies to have a minimum of three members.
Richard T. Robertson, who is currently a member of the Board of Directors, was appointed to the Audit and Finance Committee of the Board of Directors, effective as of November 15, 2006. Accordingly, as of November 15, 2006, the Company is in compliance with the listing standards of the NYSE.
