Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On April 11, 2015, director Diane L. Neal informed Abercrombie & Fitch Co. (the "Company") that, due to her responsibilities in her new position as Chief Executive Officer of Sur La Table, Inc. and limitations on board positions as a result of those responsibilities, she has decided not to stand for re-election to the Board of Directors (the "Board") of the Company at the 2015 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "2015 Annual Meeting"), but will serve out her remaining term which will expire immediately prior to the 2015 Annual Meeting.

At its next meeting, the Board will consider reducing the number of directors from 11 to 10 directors, effective upon the expiration of the current terms of the directors of the Company immediately prior to the 2015 Annual Meeting. As a result, 10 directors would be elected at the 2015 Annual Meeting.
