 of multiple performance measures in our incentive plans, stock ownership and holding requirements and executive incentive compensation recoupment (clawback) policies; and

• our policies prohibit hedging, pledging and short sales of Lamb Weston shares.

Please read “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” and “Executive Compensation Tables” in this Proxy Statement for specific details about our executive compensation program. The Compensation Committee and the Board believe that our executive compensation program for our NEOs serves our stockholders’ interests. Accordingly, we ask you to vote “FOR” the following resolution at our Annual Meeting:

“RESOLVED, that Lamb Weston’s stockholders approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation paid to Lamb Weston’s NEOs, as disclosed in this Proxy Statement pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s compensation disclosure rules, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the Executive Compensation Tables and related narrative discussion.”

This “say-on-pay” vote is advisory. Therefore, it will not be binding on Lamb Weston, the Compensation Committee or the Board. However, the Board and Compensation Committee value our stockholders’ opinions and expect to consider the outcome of the vote, along with other relevant factors, when considering NEO compensation in the future.

The Board recommends a vote “FOR” the advisory approval of our NEOs’ compensation as disclosed in this Proxy Statement.
