Genesco Inc. will reconvene the special meeting of shareholders initially convened on September 17, 2007 to approve and adopt a charter amendment that would permit the redemption of Genesco's Employees' Subordinated Convertible Preferred Stock following the completion of the merger between the Company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Finish Line, Inc. that was previously approved by the Company's shareholders.

The approval and adoption of the charter amendment is not a condition to the completion of the merger. Shareholders of record as of the close of business on August 6, 2007 are entitled to notice of and to vote at the reconvened special meeting.
