 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Item&nbsp;1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On March&nbsp;14, 2017, Tempur Sealy International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (&#147;<U>Tempur Sealy</U>&#148; or the
&#147;<U>Company</U>&#148;), entered into an Amended and Restated Rights Agreement (the &#147;<U>Amended and Restated Rights Agreement</U>&#148;) with American Stock Transfer&nbsp;&amp; Trust Company, LLC, as Rights Agent, to amend certain of the
provisions of its Rights Agreement, dated as of February&nbsp;8, 2017 (the &#147;<U>Original Rights Agreement</U>&#148;). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The primary
purpose of the amendment and restatement of the Original Rights Agreement is to provide the holders of the Company&#146;s common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the &#147;<U>Common Stock</U>&#148;) and the attached preferred stock purchase rights
issued under the Original Rights Agreement with the ability to exempt an offer to acquire, or engage in another business combination transaction involving, the Company that is deemed a &#147;<U>Qualifying Offer</U>&#148; (as defined in the Amended
and Restated Rights Agreement) from the terms of the Amended and Restated Rights Agreement. A Qualifying Offer is, in summary, an offer determined by a majority of the independent members of the Company&#146;s Board of Directors (the
&#147;<U>Board</U>&#148;) to have specific characteristics which are generally intended to preclude offers that are coercive, abusive or highly contingent. Among those characteristics are that it be (i)&nbsp;a fully financed all-cash tender offer or
an exchange offer offering shares of Common Stock of the offeror, or a combination thereof, for any and all of the Company&#146;s outstanding Common Stock; (ii)&nbsp;an offer whose per share offer price and consideration represent a &#147;reasonable
premium&#148; over the highest reported per share market price of the Company&#146;s Common Stock in the immediately preceding twenty four (24)&nbsp;months immediately preceding the date on which the offer is commenced; (iii)&nbsp;an offer that,
within twenty (20)&nbsp;business days after the commencement date of the offer (or within ten (10)&nbsp;business days after any increase in the offer consideration), does not result in a nationally recognized investment banking firm retained by the
Board rendering an opinion to the Board that the consideration being offered to the holders of the Company&#146;s Common Stock is either inadequate or unfair; and (iv)&nbsp;an offer that is otherwise in the best interests of the Company&#146;s
stockholders. The Amended and Restated Rights Agreement provides additional characteristics necessary for an acquisition offer to be deemed a &#147;Qualifying Offer&#148; including if the consideration offered in a proposed transaction is stock of
the acquiror. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Rights Agreement, if the Company receives a Qualifying Offer and the Board has not
redeemed the outstanding Rights or exempted such Qualifying Offer from the terms of the Amended and Restated Rights Agreement or called a special meeting of stockholders (the &#147;<U>Special Meeting</U>&#148;) for the purpose of voting on whether
to exempt such Qualifying Offer from the terms of the Amended and Restated Rights Agreement, in each case by the end of the ninety (90)&nbsp;business day period following the commencement of such Qualifying Offer, provided such offer remains a
Qualifying Offer during such period, the holders of ten (10)&nbsp;percent of the Company&#146;s Common Stock may request that the Board call a Special Meeting to vote on a resolution authorizing the exemption of the Qualifying Offer from the terms
of the Amended and Restated Rights Agreement. If such a Special Meeting is not held by the ninetieth (90th)&nbsp;business day following the receipt of such a request from stockholders to call a Special Meeting, the Qualifying Offer will be deemed
exempt from the terms of the Amended and Restated Rights Agreement on the tenth (10th)&nbsp;business day thereafter.</P>

Certificate of Designation, which sets forth the rights, powers and preferences of the Preferred Shares (as defined in the Amended and Restated Rights Agreement), amends the Certificate of Designation of the Series A Junior Participating Preferred
Stock filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on February&nbsp;9, 2017 (the &#147;<U>Original Certificate of Designation</U>&#148;). The Original Certificate of Designation was amended and restated to reference the Amended and

event within five (5)&nbsp;Business Days after being so requested by the Company), or establishes to the satisfaction of the Board that such Derivative Interests are not held with any intention of changing or influencing control of the Company, then

<P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="center"><B>Stockholders to Vote on Rights Plan at 2017 Annual Meeting </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">LEXINGTON, KY&#150; March&nbsp;15, 2017 &#150; Tempur Sealy International, Inc. (NYSE: TPX) today announced that its Board of Directors has amended and
restated its previously adopted Rights Plan to add a qualified offer stockholder exemption provision. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The qualified offer stockholder exemption provision
is intended to ensure that the Rights Plan does not discourage prospective acquirors from making offers to acquire Tempur Sealy that stockholders believe may be in their best interests. It provides that if Tempur Sealy receives a qualified offer (as
defined in the amended and restated Rights Plan) and the Tempur Sealy Board of Directors has not redeemed the outstanding rights or exempted such offer from the terms of the Rights Plan or called a special meeting of stockholders for the purpose of
voting on whether or not to exempt such qualified offer from the terms of the Rights Plan, in each case by the end of the 90 business days following the commencement of such qualified offer, the holders of 10&nbsp;percent of Tempur Sealy&#146;s
outstanding common stock may request that the Tempur Sealy Board call a special meeting of stockholders to vote on a resolution authorizing the exemption of the qualified offer from the Rights Plan. If such a special meeting is not held by the 90th
business day following the receipt of such a stockholder special meeting request, the qualified offer will be deemed exempt from the Rights Plan on the 10th business day thereafter. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Board&#146;s adoption of the Rights Plan on February&nbsp;8, 2017 and adoption of the amended and restated Rights Plan on March&nbsp;14, 2017 is not in
response to, or in anticipation of, any existing unsolicited, pending or threatened takeover bid or offer for Tempur Sealy&#146;s common stock. As amended and restated, the Rights Plan is intended to protect Tempur Sealy and its stockholders from
efforts to obtain control of Tempur Sealy that the Board of Directors determines are not in the best interests of Tempur Sealy and its stockholders, and to enable all stockholders to realize the long-term value of their investment in Tempur Sealy.
The Rights Plan is also designed to ensure that all Tempur Sealy stockholders receive fair and equal treatment in the event that a stockholder or group of stockholders or other third party attempts to acquire a substantial interest in Tempur
Sealy&#146;s common stock or attempts an unsolicited takeover of Tempur Sealy without first negotiating with the Tempur Sealy Board of Directors. The Rights Plan is not intended to interfere with any merger, tender or exchange offer or other
business combination approved by the Tempur Sealy Board of Directors. Nor does the Rights Plan prevent the Tempur Sealy Board of Directors from considering any offer that it considers to be in the best interest of its stockholders. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">&#147;With the addition of the qualified offer stockholder exemption provision, we believe the Rights Plan reaches an appropriate balance between protecting
our stockholders from coercive and unfair takeover attempts and current best practices in corporate governance that give stockholders a voice in determining whether a particular acquisition offer is in their best interests,&#148; said Scott
Thompson, President and CEO of Tempur Sealy. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition to the qualified offer stockholder exemption feature, the Tempur Sealy Board has taken the
following actions to ensure that the Rights Plan, as amended and restated, is consistent with what are considered best practices by the leading stockholder advisory and corporate governance bodies: </P>
