approximately $3.6 million for inventory owned as of February 2, 2007.
All expenses associated with exit and disposal activities are included in SG&A expenses
with the exception of the below-cost inventory adjustments, which are included in cost of goods

timing of the execution of the plan, the outcome of negotiations with landlords and/or potential
sublease tenants, and final inventory levels.
