Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
     On February 22, 2007, Chico’s FAS, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that it has appointed David F. Dyer to its Board of Directors, effective March 5, 2007, increasing the total number of Board seats from eight to nine. Mr. Dyer will serve as a Class II director until the 2007 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “2007 Annual Meeting”). The Board will recommend that Mr. Dyer stand for election at the 2007 Annual Meeting. There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Dyer and any other persons pursuant to which Mr. Dyer was selected as a director. Neither Mr. Dyer nor any related person of Mr. Dyer has a direct or indirect material interest in any existing or currently proposed transaction to which the Company is or may become a party. Mr. Dyer will be compensated as a non-employee director in accordance with the Company’s non-employee director compensation policies as described in the Company’s 2006 Proxy Statement. At this time, it has not been determined on which Board committee(s) Mr. Dyer will serve. The Company shall file an amendment to this Report to reflect the committee assignment(s) no later than four business days after the Board takes action to appoint Mr. Dyer to his initial Board committee assignment(s).
