This report is printed on paper contain-

dently certified forests. To further reduce
resource use, Lowe’s is relying on E-proxy
rules to make the proxy materials for its
2016 Annual Meeting, including this Annual
Report, available online to many of our
shareholders instead of mailing hard
copies to them. This use of technology
has allowed us to reduce the number of
copies we print of our Annual Report. For
