On November 16, 2016, Burlington Stores, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Original Form 8-K”) under Item 5.02 to report the election of Ted English to the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) effective as of November 15, 2016. Because Mr. English was not immediately appointed to serve on any Board committee, disclosure of the Board committee(s) on which he would serve was not included in the Original Form 8-K in accordance with instruction no. 2 of the Instructions to Item 5.02 of Form 8-K. This Current Report on Form 8-K/A reports Mr. English’s Board committee assignments. No other changes have been made to the Original Form 8-K.
