<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Dear fellow shareholders,</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Generating food waste is an unavoidable reality
for retailers. The question isn&rsquo;t <I>whether</I> a company creates food waste, but rather, <I>how much</I>? And how does it manage
that waste?</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Because our proposal (Proposal Six in Dollar General&rsquo;s
proxy statement) focuses on and thoroughly covers the environmental and social implications of food waste, for the purpose of this filing,
we discuss the financial advantages of adopting the proposal. Because, indeed, food waste is highly material.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #181716"><FONT STYLE="background-color: white">In
fact, according to a 2022 <I>Forbes</I> article, at Kroger, &ldquo;food waste represents an estimated 4% of the 2,800-store chain&rsquo;s
nearly $140 billion in annual sales, or about $5.6 billion.&rdquo; And, the article says, &ldquo;that&rsquo;s for a business that&rsquo;s
actively working to reduce it.&rdquo; (See <U>bit.ly/ForbesFoodWasteArticle</U>)</FONT></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">In TAB's extensive analysis of food retailers,
restaurants, and distributors, we found that many companies are indeed meaningfully working to reduce food waste&mdash;they&rsquo;re tracking
and measuring it, they&rsquo;ve established measurable goals to reduce it, they&rsquo;re disclosing food waste totals annually, and they&rsquo;re
transparent about their disposal methods.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">That type of robust response to food waste makes
sense. After all: (1) all waste is financial waste, (2) food waste reduction has <I>proven financial benefits</I>, and (3) as discussed
below in more detail, how it&rsquo;s disposed of even carries certain costs or benefits.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Other companies, however, disclose little or no
food waste data, making only selective disclosures (if any) and mostly vague statements about their management of this financially significant
issue.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">It is within that context that we ask you to vote
&ldquo;FOR&rdquo; Proposal Six on Dollar General&rsquo;s proxy statement.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify"><B>Before we respond directly to the Board&rsquo;s
statement opposing our proposal, we ask that you first consider the proven financial benefits of food waste reduction. </B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify"><B>&nbsp;</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Although it makes intuitive sense that reducing
food waste should carry positive financial implications, we need not rely on intuition. Indeed, ample data from a range of sources confirms
this.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">For example, consider data from the organization
Champions 12.3. Named after U.N. Sustainable Development Goal number 12.3 (to halve food waste globally by 2030), the organization&rsquo;s
leadership includes the CEOs of major food companies (e.g. Nestle, Kellanova, and Tesco), the Chief Economist for the United Nations Food
&amp; Agriculture Organization, the CEO of Rabobank, and many others.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Their report titled, <I>The Business Case for
Reducing Food Loss and Waste</I> (available at <U>bit.ly/FoodWasteBusinessCase</U>), found that there&rsquo;s a proven (and significant)
ROI in food waste reduction. It says:</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0.5in; text-align: justify"><I>We analyzed nearly 1,200 business sites
across 17 countries and more than 700 companies, representing a range of sectors including food manufacturing, food retail (e.g., grocery
stores), hospitality (e.g., hotels, leisure), and food service (e.g., canteens, restaurants)&hellip;[and] found that 99 percent of the
sites earned a positive return on investment. The median benefit-cost ratio&mdash;where half of the sites achieved a higher ratio while
half achieved a lower ratio&mdash;was 14:1. In other words, half of the business sites earned greater than a 14-fold financial return
on investment. Thus, for every $1 (or other relevant currency) invested in food loss and waste reduction, the median company site realized
a $14 return.</I></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify"><B>&nbsp;</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">So, then, the question arises: What has Dollar
General&rsquo;s approach to this issue been?</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify"><B>&nbsp;</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify"><B>As our proposal points out, Dollar General
touts having implemented food waste reduction programs at over 3,800 locations. While that&rsquo;s of course a <I>start</I>, it does raise
serious questions about what&rsquo;s happening at the company&rsquo;s <I>more than 16,000</I> other locations.</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">In 2024, one Dollar General employee shed some
light onto the issue, sparking negative media coverage for the company.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&ldquo;So much waste,&rdquo; the employee posted
in Reddit&rsquo;s <I>r/DollarGeneral</I> community in August 2024. &ldquo;This is what we threw away on Monday. We found many expired
boxes of Hostess snack cakes, some of which went bad in May. Customers couldn&rsquo;t see or reach the Hostess display because it was
surrounded by display racks for other merchandise. Expired food is a big problem at my store.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The post (available at <U>bit.ly/RedditWastePost</U>)
includes a photo showing piles of expired snack food about to be discarded after going unsold.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Another Dollar General employee weighed in with
their own experience: &ldquo;I&rsquo;ve filled multiple shopping carts filled with expired food when doing recovery&hellip;But I was eventually
told to just try and put things in totes, because I was using so many carts that it was [taking] up the carts the customers could use.
And, just yesterday, I found an entire candy display that was all expired. Cleared an entire shelf.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">And that&rsquo;s <I>packaged</I> food, with a
longer shelf life than fresh food. As Dollar General aims to expand its fresh produce offerings to 10,000 locations, the topic of food
waste becomes even more relevant for the company and its shareholders.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify"><B>With this in mind, we note that the company
discloses very little food waste data&mdash;and doesn&rsquo;t disclose the total quantity of food waste generated by its stores.</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The old adage that &quot;what gets measured gets
managed&quot; holds true for food waste.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">As the Champions 12.3 &ldquo;Business Case&rdquo;
report referenced above says: &ldquo;Quantifying food loss and waste&hellip;can help decision-makers better understand how much, where,
and why food is being lost or wasted,&rdquo; thereby providing &ldquo;an evidence-based foundation for developing and prioritizing food
loss and waste reduction strategies.&rdquo; And it points out, &ldquo;Measurement does not need to be a complex and resource-intensive
exercise. Quantification and periodic monitoring can be integrated with other resource monitoring programs that governments and companies
have in place. And as the financial benefit-cost ratio analyses above indicate, measurement can have a large positive payback.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Similarly, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) advises companies: &ldquo;Learn about what flows through your [operations] by measuring the amount, type, and reason for the generation
of wasted food,&rdquo; adding that &ldquo;knowing how much and why wasted food is generated will help to create effective wasted food
prevention strategies.&rdquo; The agency says this &ldquo;will also help to identify wasted food that is avoided and money saved&rdquo;
and even offers &ldquo;a variety of free EPA tools available to conduct a waste audit.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Yet, as Dollar General confirmed to us, the company
doesn&rsquo;t measure (and has never disclosed) just how much food waste it generates. Hence, our proposal asks it to do so.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify"><B>&nbsp;</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify"><B>The proposal also asks the company to disclose
its related disposal methods for food waste.</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify"><B>&nbsp;</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Not only does the <I>amount</I> of food waste
generated carry significant financial implications, but how companies <I>dispose</I> of their food waste does too.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">These disposal methods carry different financial
implications. For example, reducing the amount of food waste in the first place can generate obvious cost-savings; donating excess food
has tax benefits; and selling food waste to be turned into animal feed or used in industrial applications can help recoup costs.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Thus, we believe companies should not only disclose
<I>overall</I> food waste measurements, but also the <I>related disposal methods</I>&mdash;so that shareholders can understand how these
opportunities are (or aren&rsquo;t) being capitalized on.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">As one example, Walmart discloses its pounds of
global operational food waste by destination type: 578 million pounds to animal feed, 64 million pounds to biochemical processing, 153
million pounds to composting, and 156 million pounds to anaerobic digestion.<SUP>1</SUP></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"><SUP>1</SUP> We also note that there is growing regulation around food
waste disposal methods. As Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS) reported in 2020: &ldquo;Food waste is also starting to be addressed
by regulators. The states of California, Massachusetts, Vermont, Rhode Island and Connecticut, and the municipalities of Austin (TX),
Boulder (CO), New York City (NY), San Francisco (CA), and Seattle (WA) have adopted laws that require businesses to divert food waste
from landfills, either through reducing, recycling, composting, donating, or other means.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify"><B>And finally, the proposal also seeks measurable
food waste reduction targets.</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">While our proposal doesn't prescribe precisely
what these targets should be&mdash;leaving that discretion to the Board and management&mdash;we do think the company should <I>have</I>
reduction targets.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">As the Champions 12.3 &ldquo;Business Case&rdquo;
report says, &ldquo;Targets set ambition, and ambition motivates action.&rdquo; It continues: &ldquo;To create the needed focus, therefore&hellip;companies
should adopt explicit food loss and waste reduction targets.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">We agree. And indeed, many companies are setting
measurable food waste targets. As just three examples: By 2030, Walmart is aiming to reduce its global operational food loss and waste
by 50%; Albertsons has a goal to send zero food to landfill by 2030; and Kroger has a goal achieve 95%+ food waste diversion in stores
by the end of this year.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">These businesses are of course much larger than
Dollar General, but establishing food waste reduction goals, we believe, makes sense for food retailers of all shapes and sizes. And with
approximately 20,000 locations&mdash;half of which the company aims to be selling fresh produce in&mdash;we think the case for Dollar
General establishing reduction targets is clear.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify"><B>With all this in mind, we now consider the
Board&rsquo;s statement opposing our proposal.</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Despite food waste&rsquo;s significant financial
implications, the Company&rsquo;s opposition statement largely focuses on other issues entirely. For instance, it opens with a section
nearly 300 words long about the company&rsquo;s attention to matters like <FONT STYLE="color: #221F1F">greenhouse gas emissions, energy
efficiency, fuel efficiency, and recycling. This section does also discuss waste management&mdash;though with a focus not on food, but
on plastics, cardboard, pallets, and paper.</FONT></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #221F1F">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">From there, it finally shifts to a discussion
of Dollar General&rsquo;s <I>food waste</I> initiatives&mdash;such as food bank donations, transferring expired dairy to producers of
animal feed, repurposing expired dairy in a waste-to-energy process, and &ldquo;carefully managing our store inventory levels to maximize
sales and minimize unsold perishables.&rdquo; It also touts &ldquo;<FONT STYLE="color: #221F1F">composting organic waste from our stores
in Vermont, California and Austin, Texas&rdquo; (although it fails to mention that doing so is <I>legally required</I> in those places).</FONT></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #221F1F">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">It claims, &quot;we have implemented several programs
to <I>reduce the quantity</I> of our food waste,&quot; and, several times, references efforts to <I>reduce</I> food waste. [Emphasis added.]
But since the company fails to report any <I>measurements</I> of its overall food waste, shareholders have no way of knowing if these
programs are actually achieving their goal.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">It also says that preparing <FONT STYLE="color: #221F1F">&ldquo;the
additional report requested by the Proponent would require significant resources, including a material amount of management time, effort
and expense, without providing meaningful additional information or value that is commensurate with the cost of preparing the report.&rdquo;</FONT></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">We disagree. In our view, the more a company devotes
to an initiative (i.e., the more robust its food waste reduction and diversion efforts are), the more shareholders deserve <I>measurements</I>
of those efforts&rsquo; efficacy so that we can understand the return on the company&rsquo;s investment.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Indeed, given food waste&rsquo;s significant financial
costs and the proven financial benefits associated with measuring and reducing it&mdash;as well as the resources Dollar General is apparently
devoting toward trying to reduce it&mdash;we believe it makes sense for the company to disclose just how much food waste it&rsquo;s generating
