the Company&rsquo;s Board of Directors voted to appoint Irwin Simon as a new director to the Board of Directors. Mr. Simon has
joined the Company&rsquo;s Board as an independent director, and will serve as a member of the Audit Committee and the Human Resources
&amp; Compensation Committee, until the next election of directors at the Company&rsquo;s 2013 annual meeting of stockholders.
There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Simon and any other person pursuant to which Mr. Simon was appointed as a
director of the Company. In connection with his service on the Board of Directors and consistent with the compensation arrangements
for non-employee directors, Mr. Simon will receive an annual cash retainer for his service on the Board of Directors, together
with meeting fees. In addition, Mr. Simon was granted a restricted stock award of 12,000 Class A shares pursuant to the Company&rsquo;s
2011 Stock Incentive Plan. On April 29, 2013, the Company issued a press release announcing the appointment of Mr. Simon as a new

MDC Board of Directors a unique perspective on all aspects of advertising and marketing services, as well as extensive entrepreneurial
and operational experience. In addition to his deep knowledge of the consumer packaged goods industry and branding and innovation,
services that are provided by MDC&rsquo;s partner agencies, Simon shares MDC&rsquo;s unique entrepreneurial approach. In 1993,
deliberately choosing not to follow the food industry giants, Simon founded and built Hain Celestial by acquiring brands that fit
his unique vision of marketing &ldquo;better-for-you&rdquo; products and leveraging them to build the group&rsquo;s position in
the highly competitive retail marketplace.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; background-color: white; color: #222222">In building Hain Celestial,
Simon was an early identifier of the growth potential of the natural and organic food categories, which was beginning to eclipse
the growth of the traditional and mainstream food categories. In 2000, the company was named one of Fortune Magazine&rsquo;s 100
Fastest Growing Companies. Simon continued to grow the group by recognizing the value of experienced, best-in-class executives
that would help improve brand performance by building a customer-centric organization while reducing costs. Today, The Hain Celestial
Group, trades on The NASDAQ&reg; Global Select Market with a market cap of nearly $3.0 billion.</P>
