On November 4, 2026, John Laveck notified Vestis

policies or practices.
A search process for Mr. Laveck’s replacement
has already commenced. Following Mr. Laveck’s departure, Russell T. Tiejema, the Company’s Executive Vice President and Chief

appointed. Mr. Tiejema’s biographical information and the other information required by Item 5.02(c) of Form 8-K are included in
the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 28, 2026, and are incorporated
