LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) -- Tempur-Pedic International Inc. said Thursday that shareholders have approved changing the company's name to Tempur Sealy International Inc.

The company's global corporate headquarters will be in Lexington, Ky., and its subsidiaries will continue with their existing names. The company will continue to trade on the NYSE under the symbol "TPX".
It also said that it is launching a new corporate website: www.tempursealy.com.
