<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Dear fellow shareholders,</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">After Starbucks chose to re-combine its Board Chair and CEO positions&mdash;following
six years with an independent Chair&mdash;The Accountability Board and the New York State Common Retirement Fund joined together to co-file
a shareholder proposal raising concerns about this decision and seeking an independent Chair policy (Proposal 5 in the company&rsquo;s
proxy statement). This response is provided to the Board&rsquo;s statement opposing the proposal.</P>

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

<TABLE CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0" WIDTH="100%" STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt"><TR STYLE="vertical-align: top">
<TD STYLE="width: 0.25in"></TD><TD STYLE="width: 0.25in"><B>1.</B></TD><TD><B>The Board&rsquo;s opposition inexplicably contradicts its years-long position on maintaining effective allocation of authority
and oversight between management and the Board. </B></TD></TR></TABLE>

<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">For years, with an independent Chair at the helm, the Starbucks Board
annually declared its belief that &ldquo;its leadership structure is appropriate because it effectively allocates authority, responsibility,
and oversight between management and the independent members of our board and supports the independence of our non-management directors.&rdquo;<SUP>1</SUP></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">As recently as last year, the Board recognized the importance of its
oversight of management, stating that it &ldquo;is responsible for ensuring that Starbucks business and affairs are managed to meet our
stated goals and objectives and that the long-term interests of Starbucks shareholders and stakeholders are served.&rdquo; As independent
chair, Mellody Hobson emphasized that she was responsible for &ldquo;facilitat[ing] the board&rsquo;s oversight of management and Starbucks
long-term strategy and business initiatives.&rdquo;</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">Yet despite its years of acknowledging the fundamental role of the
Board&rsquo;s responsibility to oversee management, the Board&rsquo;s opposition statement abandons that responsibility and asks shareholders
to be content to let management oversee itself. Our proposal would prevent that dangerous delegation of responsibility and restore a governance
framework that again &ldquo;effectively allocates authority, responsibility, and oversight between management and the Board.&rdquo;</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">We note that the Board&rsquo;s opposition statement touts that director
Mellody Hobson had been a &ldquo;champion for independent oversight on behalf of shareholders.&rdquo;</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">Thus, we find it particularly significant that when Ms. Hobson chaired
DreamWorks&rsquo; Board, it acknowledged that an independent chair &ldquo;provides strong leadership for our Board&hellip;while also
positioning our CEO as the leader of the Company for our employees, business partners and investors and the media.&rdquo; It continued:
&ldquo;We believe that our current structure, which includes a non-executive Chairman, helps ensure independent oversight over the Company.
Our current structure further allows the CEO to focus his energies on management of the Company.&rdquo;</P>

rules to implement a different governance structure, it smartly maintained the critical benefits of having an independent Chair.<SUP>2</SUP></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Starbucks now asks shareholders to ignore its long-professed claims
of the core protections served by effectively separating authority, responsibility and oversight between the Board and management. Our

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; text-align: left; margin-top: 0pt; margin-right: 5.2pt; margin-bottom: 0pt">Our proposal was submitted to the company in September
2024. In it, we raised concerns about certain structural weaknesses in the Lead Independent Director role. Two months after receiving
our proposal, the Board announced that it was making structural changes to the position, changes which addressed and fortified the very
concerns we raised in the proposal.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 5.2pt 0pt 5pt">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; text-align: left; margin-top: 0pt; margin-right: 5.2pt; margin-bottom: 0pt">The Board&rsquo;s opposition statement implies that the
changes were made &ldquo;as a result of this review&rdquo; (and purportedly not induced by the proposal it had under consideration for
two months identifying the very problems it ultimately addressed). Even if we accept the Board&rsquo;s implausible claim about the proposal&rsquo;s
role in the process, the Board&rsquo;s action demonstrates a critical point that undercuts its primary opposition argument: it isn&rsquo;t
unfettered discretion, but ingrained structural safeguards that are essential for stable and robust corporate governance.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 5.2pt 0pt 5pt">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; text-align: left; margin-top: 0pt; margin-right: 5.2pt; margin-bottom: 0pt">And, indeed, it is just such structural safeguards that
the proposal now calls for. It is difficult to comprehend how the company can tout the adoption of specific frameworks of independence
for certain governance positions but vehemently oppose them for positions where effective allocation of authority, responsibility, and
oversight are most essential.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 5.2pt 0pt 5pt">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; text-align: left; margin-top: 0pt; margin-right: 5.2pt; margin-bottom: 0pt">Separately, we feel compelled to point out that although
the company has finally addressed these issues, Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS) first raised concerns about the company&rsquo;s
LID role back in 2014,
when supporting a shareholder proposal seeking an independent Chair policy. As it reported at the time, &ldquo;the role of presiding independent
director is not robust to serve as an effective counterbalance to the combined Chair/CEO. Specifically, the company fails to disclose
whether one of the presiding director&rsquo;s duties includes that he will be available for consultation and direct communication with
major shareholders.&rdquo; Yet the company failed to address the concerns for years.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 5.2pt 0pt 5pt">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 5.2pt 0pt 0">Ultimately, the 10-year delay to act and the pending shareholder
proposal calling attention to the problematic issues leaves us skeptical of the company&rsquo;s motives for finally addressing them, and
in our view, is yet another indication of problematic governance at Starbucks.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-weight: normal">The Board asserts that an independent
Chair policy would unnecessarily constrain its flexibility to determine the best leadership structure for the company. However, the proposal
explicitly includes provisions to preserve flexibility. For example, it allows compliance with the policy to be waived if no independent
director is available or willing to serve as Chair. Furthermore, the policy applies prospectively, ensuring it does not violate existing
legal obligations. Contrary to the Board&rsquo;s assertion, a policy requiring an independent Chair provides a stable and consistent governance
framework, reducing risks associated with ad hoc decision-making and ensuring that leadership decisions are made in the best interests
of shareholders rather than being influenced by the CEO&rsquo;s dual role.</FONT></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">While the Board highlights the duties of the Lead Independent Director
as a safeguard for independent oversight, this argument overlooks the long-touted importance of preserving a firewall that allocates authority,
responsibility, and oversight between an independent board and management. The Board now asks shareholders to be content foregoing the
highest level of independent oversight and accept the inherent limitations of a role substantially less authority. A Lead Independent
Director&rsquo;s role, however robust, is not an adequate substitute for the authority and oversight capability of an independent Chair.</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">As we note in our proposal, the majority of S&amp;P 500 companies have
separate CEO and Chair roles, combined CEO/Chair roles have been falling within the S&amp;P 500 (from 52% in 2015 to 41% 2023), and independent
Chairs have risen in that time frame (from 29% to 39%).</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">Nonetheless, the Board&rsquo;s opposition statement cites a survey
that most S&amp;P 500 companies don&rsquo;t <I><U>mandate</U></I> such separation. But there are major flaws with the Board&rsquo;s reliance
on the survey. For example, companies that actually separate the CEO and board Chair positions&mdash;which comprise the majority of the
S&amp;P 500&mdash;don&rsquo;t have incentive to formally change their governance guidelines to mandate a separation that already exists.</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">Further, the section of the survey on which the Board&rsquo;s statement
relies focused on how many companies were <I><U>moving away</U></I> from a combined CEO/Chair policy (to a flexible one). It wasn&rsquo;t
a comment on the opposite, i.e. whether companies were moving away from (or denouncing) policies about separation or independence in the
roles. Properly interpreted, our view is that the report shows that governance policies are ultimately trending in the direction we&rsquo;ve
proposed, which assures Board independence from&mdash;and thus effective oversight of&mdash;the CEO and management team.</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">Starbucks&rsquo; opposition statement fails to address the fundamental
governance risks posed by a combined Chair/CEO role. While the Board argues for unfettered flexibility, a stable and robust governance
structure requires consistent, policy-driven safeguards, which adoption of our proposal would provide.</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">We therefore urge shareholders to vote in favor of this proposal to
ensure that Starbucks&rsquo; governance structure supports independent oversight and accountability.</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"><B><I>Thank you for your attention and consideration. We&rsquo;re not
asking for and can&rsquo;t accept your proxy. Please vote FOR Proposal 5.&nbsp;</I></B></P>
