At any time, we may be subject to investigations, legal proceedings, or claims related to the on-going operation of our business, including claims both
by and against us. Such proceedings typically involve claims related to various forms of liability, contract disputes, allegations of violations of laws or
regulations or other actions brought by us or others including our employees, consumers, competitors, suppliers or governmental agencies. We routinely
assess the likelihood of any adverse outcomes related to these matters on a case by case basis, as well as the potential ranges of losses and fees. We establish
accruals for our potential exposure, as appropriate, for significant claims against us when losses become probable and reasonably estimable. Where we are
able to reasonably estimate a range of potential losses relating to significant matters, we record the amount within that range that constitutes our best
estimate. We also disclose the nature of and range of loss for claims against us when losses are reasonably possible and material. These accruals and
disclosures are determined based on the facts and circumstances related to the individual cases and require estimates and judgments regarding the
interpretation of facts and laws, as well as the effectiveness of strategies or other factors beyond our control.

On February 25, 2016, we announced plans to close 18 underperforming stores in fiscal 2016. We announced the specific locations in March 2016. We
currently expect to incur $150 to $170 million in charges as a result of these planned closures and the organizational realignment at our corporate offices
which were announced in February 2016. We estimate that approximately $55-$65 million of the charges will be recorded in the first quarter of 2016, with
the remainder recorded in the second quarter of 2016.
