The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various states
and foreign jurisdictions. The Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) is currently examining the Company’s
U.S. income tax returns for the fiscal years ended January 30, 2010 and January 31, 2009. The Company does not
anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material impact on its consolidated financial statements as a
result of these audits. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examination for years before
and including the fiscal year ended January 28, 2006.
With respect to state and local jurisdictions and countries outside of the United States, the Company and its
subsidiaries are typically subject to examination for three to six years after the income tax returns have been
filed. Although the outcome of tax audits is always uncertain, the Company believes that adequate amounts of
tax, interest and penalties have been provided for in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for any
adjustments that might be incurred due to state, local or foreign audits.
