Notes:

(1) Because of the seasonal nature of the retail business, the results of operations for the 13 weeks ended October 31, 2009 and November 1, 2008 (which do not include the Christmas season) are not necessarily indicative of such results for the fiscal year.

(2) Merchandise inventories are primarily valued at the lower of cost or market using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) retail inventory method. Application of this method did not impact cost of sales for the 13 weeks ended October 31, 2009 or November 1, 2008.

(3) Represents restructuring-related costs and expenses associated with the division consolidations and localization initiatives, primarily severance and other human resource-related costs. For the 13 weeks ended October 31, 2009, restructuring-related costs associated with the division consolidations and localization initiatives announced in February 2009 amounted to $23 million after tax or $.05 per diluted share. For the 13 weeks ended November 1, 2008, restructuring-related costs associated with the division consolidations and localization initiatives announced in February 2008 amounted to $10 million after tax or $.02 per diluted share.

(4) Federal, state and local income taxes differ from the federal income tax statutory rate of 35%, principally because of the effect of state and local taxes, including the settlement of various tax issues and tax examinations.
