Effective December 8, 2006, Giles H. Bateman resigned his position as a director of Tuesday Morning Corporation (the “Company”).  The Company announced that, effective December 14, 2006, Mr. Bruce A. Quinnell has been appointed to the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) until his term expires at the Company’s 2007 annual meeting of stockholders.  Mr. Quinnell will serve as a member of the Audit Committee and the Compensation Committee and will be the Chairman of the Audit Committee.

There are no understandings or arrangements between Mr. Quinnell and any other person pursuant to which Mr. Quinnell was selected to serve as a director of the Company.  There are no material relationships or transactions between Mr. Quinnell and the Company or any of the Company’s directors, executive officers, or major security holders, or the immediate family members of any such person.  In addition, there are no family relationships between Mr. Quinnell and any director or executive officer of the Company.

For his board service, Mr. Quinnell will receive an annual retainer from the Company in the amount of $30,000 (beginning January 1, 2007), reimbursement for his out-of-pocket expenses incurred in attending Board and committee meetings and the standard 20% discount on merchandise purchases provided to all of the Company’s employees.  Upon Mr. Quinnell’s election to the Board, he was granted an initial grant of 20,000 options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock priced at the fair market value on the date of the grant.  As the Chairman of the Audit Committee, Mr. Quinnell will receive additional compensation of $20,000 annually for performance of his additional duties in such capacity.
