<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available
for benefits of Harris Teeter Supermarkets,&nbsp;Inc. Retirement and Savings Plan (the &ldquo;Plan&rdquo;) as of December&nbsp;31, 2021
and 2020, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2021, and the
related notes and schedule (collectively referred to as the &ldquo;financial statements&rdquo;). In our opinion, the financial statements
referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December&nbsp;31,
2021 and 2020, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2021, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.</P>

management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (&ldquo;PCAOB&rdquo;) and are required to be independent with respect to the Plan in accordance
with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules&nbsp;and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the
PCAOB.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Plan is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit
of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control
over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan&rsquo;s internal control over
financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material
misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures
included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included
evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation
of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The supplemental information in the accompanying schedule of assets
(held at end of year) as of December&nbsp;31, 2021, has been subjected to audit procedures performed in conjunction with the audit of
the Plan&rsquo;s financial statements. The supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan&rsquo;s management. Our audit procedures
included determining whether the supplemental schedule reconciles to the financial statements or the underlying accounting and other records,
as applicable, and performing procedures to test the completeness and accuracy of the information presented in the supplemental schedule.
In forming our opinion on the supplemental schedules, we evaluated whether the supplemental schedule, including its form and content,
is presented in conformity with the Department of Labor&rsquo;s Rules&nbsp;and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. In our opinion, the supplemental information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation
to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.</P>

a wholly owned subsidiary of The Kroger Co. (&ldquo;Kroger&rdquo;). The Company is the sole member of Harris Teeter, LLC (the &ldquo;Employer&rdquo;)
and sponsors the Harris Teeter Supermarkets,&nbsp;Inc. Retirement and Savings Plan (the &ldquo;Plan&rdquo;).</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The following description of the Plan provides only general information.
On December&nbsp;31, 2021 the Plan was amended and restated, generally effective January&nbsp;1, 2021. The common shares of Kroger are
referred to as &ldquo;Kroger Shares&rdquo; herein. Participants should refer to the Plan document for a more complete description of the
Plan&rsquo;s provisions.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Company sponsors the Plan, which is a defined contribution plan
with 401(k)&nbsp;features. The Plan is maintained by the Company primarily for the benefit of employees of the Employer. The Plan is subject
to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (&ldquo;ERISA&rdquo;). Under the provisions of the Plan, eligible
employees may elect to have the Company make contributions to the Plan on their behalf out of their regular salary and bonus (before state
and federal income taxes or as Roth contributions). Employees become eligible to participate in the Plan after three months of employment.
Participants may generally contribute up to 30% of gross pay not to exceed established limits of $19,500 for 2021. Highly compensated
employees are subject to additional contribution limitations. In addition to established limits, participants age 50 or older may contribute
 &ldquo;catch-up&rdquo; contributions of $6,500 for 2021. Participants may elect to make pre-tax and/or Roth contributions, subject to
the aggregate limits stated above.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Plan includes Company matching contributions at a rate determined
at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company or its delegate. The Company matching contributions are applicable only
to the first 4% of compensation contributed by participants. The matching contributions are deposited with each payroll contribution.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">For each plan year (January&nbsp;1 &ndash; December&nbsp;31), the Company
generally makes an Automatic Retirement Contribution (&ldquo;ARC&rdquo;) to an individual participant&rsquo;s account if the participant
has completed at least 1,000 hours of service during the 12-month period ending on September&nbsp;30 of each plan year and is employed
by the Company or its subsidiaries on the last day of the plan year. Contributions are a percentage of the individual participant&rsquo;s
pay, determined on the basis of the combined years of age and years of service as of the last day of the plan year.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt; color: #211d1e">Participants
may generally direct the investment of their contributions, the Company&rsquo;s matching contributions, and their ARC from among various
investment options offered by the Plan, including Kroger Shares, subject to certain limitations. </FONT><FONT STYLE="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif">In
the event an effective investment direction is not made by the participant, and in the case of contributions made by or on behalf of a
participant that, under the terms of the Plan, are to be invested in the Plan's default investment, such contributions shall be invested
in a default investment fund that meets the requirements of ERISA, Department of Labor Regulations and any other related regulations or
similar guidance.&nbsp; During the reporting year, the Plan's default investment fund was an age-appropriate retirement fund/trust based
upon retirement at age 65. Participants may not direct more than 20% of their contributions into <FONT STYLE="color: #211d1e">Kroger Shares</FONT>.&nbsp;
If participants direct more than 20% of their contributions into <FONT STYLE="color: #211d1e">Kroger Shares</FONT>, the excess will be
invested in the Plan's default investment. In addition, amounts may not be transferred from existing investment funds to <FONT STYLE="color: #211d1e">Kroger
Shares</FONT> if the resulting amount of <FONT STYLE="color: #211d1e">Kroger Shares</FONT> exceeds 20% of the aggregate value of the participant&rsquo;s
account. Generally, a participant&rsquo;s</FONT> <FONT STYLE="color: #211d1e">Kroger Shares account will be invested exclusively in Kroger
Shares. The Company intends the Kroger Shares account to be a permanent investment fund unless the Company&rsquo;s Retirement Plan Committee
determines, in its sole discretion, that the continued holding or purchase of Kroger Shares would be inconsistent with ERISA.</FONT></P>

contributions, allocations of the Company&rsquo;s contributions, plan earnings, benefit payments and allocations of administrative expenses
and plan losses. Allocations of administrative expenses may be determined on a per participant basis or prorated across all participants&rsquo;
investments based proportionately on each participant&rsquo;s account balance, depending upon the category and nature of the expense.
There is also a quarterly administrative credit provided to eligible participants based upon the amount the Plan&rsquo;s recordkeeper
receives for administrative services from certain of the Plan&rsquo;s investments. The recordkeeping fee was $1,291,883 and $1,374,768
for years ended December&nbsp;31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The administrative fee credit was $90,654 and $69,598 for years ended December&nbsp;31,
2021 and 2020, respectively. The administrative credits provided to eligible participants are shown as other income in the statement of
changes in net assets available for benefits. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from
the participant&rsquo;s vested account.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Upon a bona fide termination of service from the Company, participants
may receive the vested value of their account. In general (and except for certain distributions associated with the ARC which include
an annuity purchase option), payment of any benefit is made in the form of a lump-sum payment, or the participant may elect partial or
installment distributions, as outlined in the Plan document. In-service withdrawals are subject to certain restrictions, and they generally
include rollover withdrawals, age 59-1/2 withdrawals, merged ESOP plan withdrawals, certain financial hardship withdrawals and qualified
reservist distributions. Participants are taxed on their accounts upon withdrawal, except for qualified rollovers into other tax deferred
plans, and withdrawal of Roth contributions plus earnings thereon, subject to certain restrictions.</P>

earnings thereon. For Company matching contributions and ARC, a participant is fully vested in the contributions plus actual earnings
thereon after three years of service. A year of service requires a minimum of 1,000 hours of service during the vesting computation period
with the Company or an affiliate.</P>

forfeits any nonvested balance in his or her Company contributions account and ARCs as of the earlier of (a)&nbsp;distribution to the
participant of the participant&rsquo;s vested balance, or (b)&nbsp;the last day of the first Plan year in which the participant incurs
five consecutive Breaks in Service, as defined by the Plan. The forfeited funds are used to offset Employer contributions. Forfeitures
utilized to offset Employer contributions totaled $4,918,204 during 2021. The forfeiture balance was $163,331 and $109,779 at December&nbsp;31,
2021 and 2020, respectively.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Participants may borrow from certain of their fund accounts, subject
to certain restrictions and requirements, a minimum of $500 and up to a maximum equal to the lesser of (a)&nbsp;$50,000, reduced by the
participant&rsquo;s highest outstanding loan balance during the 12-month period ending on the day before the loan is made, (b)&nbsp;50
percent of their vested account balance or (c)&nbsp;100% of the participant&rsquo;s vested account balance, excluding ARC, Roth and Merged
ESOP subaccounts. Only one loan per year may be taken, and a participant may not apply for a loan if the participant has had a loan outstanding
within the past thirty days. An additional loan may be permitted for the convenience of a participant by the Loan Administrator when errors
in loan amortizations, loan administration or loan payment processing occur and the Loan Administrator or Plan sponsor is at least partly
at fault. Except for certain loans relating to a participant&rsquo;s principal residence, loans must be repaid within five years. Loans
bear a fixed interest rate of one percent over the prime rate as listed in the Wall Street Journal on the last business day of the previous
quarter. Effective April&nbsp;1, 2018, the interest rate for new loans will be the prime rate as published in the Wall Street Journal
on the business day prior to the date the loan request is received, plus one percent. Interest on loans outstanding ranged from 4.25%
to 9.25%, reflecting the change in interest rates during the life of the outstanding loans. Principal and interest is paid through payroll
deductions.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Equity Index Trust Fund, the U.S. Small-Cap Value Equity Trust,
the Blue Chip Growth Trust and the T. Rowe Price Retirement Trusts (&ldquo;Retirement Trusts&rdquo;) are common collective trust funds
operated by the Trustee. Each investor&rsquo;s beneficial interest in the net assets of the trusts are represented by units, an unlimited
number of which are authorized. Unit transactions are subject to terms, conditions, and limitations defined in the Declaration of Trust.
Trust units are issued and redeemed only on a valuation date and at the net asset value (&ldquo;NAV&rdquo;) per unit computed on that
date. The Equity Index Trust Fund&rsquo;s and each Retirement Trust&rsquo;s financial instruments are valued and their NAV is computed
at the close of the New York Stock Exchange each day it is open for business. The investment objective of The Equity Index Trust Fund
is to seek long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in common stocks. Specifically, the trust seeks to replicate the total
return of the U.S equity market as represented by the S&amp;P 500 Stock Index. The investment objective of each Retirement Trust is to
seek the highest total return over time consistent with an emphasis on both capital growth and income. The Retirement Trusts pursue these
objectives by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of other T. Rowe Price common trust funds that represent various asset classes
and sectors. The Retirement Trusts&rsquo; allocations between stock and bond trusts will change over time in relation to each trust&rsquo;s
target retirement date. The Retirement 2005-2065 Trusts are managed based on the specific retirement year (target date) included in the
name and assume a retirement age of 65. The target date refers to the approximate year an investor in a trust would plan to retire and
likely stop making new investments in that trust. Each trust is designed for an investor who anticipates retiring at or around the target
date and who plans to withdraw the value of the account in the trust gradually after retirement. Over time, the allocation to asset classes
and underlying trusts will change according to a predetermined &ldquo;glide path.&rdquo; The glide path represents the shifting of asset
classes over time with the asset mix becoming more conservative &ndash; both prior to and after retirement &ndash; as time elapses. At
the target date for each of the Retirement Trusts, each trust&rsquo;s allocation to stock-related investments is anticipated to be approximately
55% of its assets. Each such trust&rsquo;s exposure to stocks will continue to decline until approximately 30 years after its target date,
when its allocation to stock-related investments will remain fixed at approximately 20% of each trust&rsquo;s assets with the remainder
being invested in bond-related investments.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&ldquo;Accounting Standards Codification (&ldquo;ASC&rdquo;) Topic
820, <I>Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure</I>, defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and establishes
a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques. Fair value is the price that would be received in an asset
sale or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A fair value measurement
assumes that the transaction in an asset sale or to transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or,
in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market. Valuation techniques that are consistent with the market, income or
cost approach, as specified by ASC Topic 820, are used to measure fair value.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">NOTE D &ndash; STABLE VALUE FUND</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Stable Value Fund is a collective trust fund sponsored by T. Rowe
Price Associates,&nbsp;Inc. Each investor&rsquo;s beneficial interest in the net assets of the trust is represented by units, an unlimited
number of which are authorized. Unit transactions are subject to terms, conditions, and limitations defined in the Declaration of Trust.
Trust units are issued and redeemed only on a valuation date and at the NAV per unit computed on that date. Trust units may be redeemed
on a daily basis to meet benefit payments and other participant initiated withdrawals permitted by retirement plans invested in the trust.
The investment objectives of the trust are to maximize current income consistent with the maintenance of principal and to provide for
withdrawals for certain participant initiated transactions under a retirement plan without penalty or adjustment. The trust will attempt
to achieve these objectives by investing principally in guaranteed investment contracts (&ldquo;GICs&rdquo;) issued by insurance companies;
investment contracts issued by banks (&ldquo;BICs&rdquo;); structured or synthetic investment contracts (&ldquo;SICs&rdquo;) issued by
banks, insurance companies, and other issuers, as well as the securities supporting such SICs (underlying assets); separate account contracts;
and other similar instruments that are intended to maintain a constant NAV while permitting participant initiated, benefit-responsive
withdrawals for certain events.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Stable Value Fund investment has been identified as a fully benefit-responsive
investment. Participants ordinarily may direct the withdrawal or transfer of all or a portion of their investment at contract value. Contract
value represents contributions made to the benefit-responsive investments, plus earnings, less participant withdrawals, and administrative
expenses. The benefit-responsive investments impose certain restrictions on the Plan, and the investments themselves may be subject to
circumstances that impact their ability to transact at contract value, as described in the following paragraphs. Plan management believes
that the occurrence of events that would cause the investments to transact at less than contract value is not probable.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">All investment contracts held by the Stable Value Fund are effected
directly between the trust and the issuer of the contract and are nontransferable. Permitted participant-initiated withdrawals refer to
withdrawals from the trust by an employer-sponsored defined contribution plan directly as a result of participant transactions allowed
by the Plan, such as participant withdrawals for benefits, loans, or transfers to other funds or trusts within the Plan.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Internal Revenue Service (&ldquo;IRS&rdquo;) has determined and
informed the Company by a letter dated June&nbsp;21, 2017, that, in the opinion of the IRS, the terms of the Plan conform to the requirements
of Code Section&nbsp;401(a)&nbsp;of the Internal Revenue Code (&ldquo;IRC&rdquo;). Although the Plan has been amended and restated since
the effective date of the determination letter, the Plan&rsquo;s administrator believes that the Plan is designed and is currently being
operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">GAAP requires the Plan&rsquo;s management to evaluate tax positions
taken by the Plan and recognize a tax liability (or asset) if the Plan has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would
not be sustained upon examination by the IRS. The Plan&rsquo;s administrator has analyzed the tax positions taken by the Plan, and has
concluded that as of December&nbsp;31, 2021 and 2020, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require
recognition of a liability or disclosure in the financial statements. The Plan is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however,
there are currently no tax audits for any tax periods in progress.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">NOTE F &ndash; PLAN TERMINATION</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Company expects to continue the Plan indefinitely but has the right
to amend or terminate the Plan as necessary. If the Plan were to be terminated, Plan participants would become fully vested in their account
balances and all assets of the Plan would be distributed to the individual participants based upon their individual account balances at
the date of termination.</P>

which, in general, are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, credit, and overall market volatility risks. Further, due to the

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">In December&nbsp;2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) surfaced
in China, and subsequently spread to other countries, including the United States. In March&nbsp;2020, the World Health Organization declared
COVID-19 a global pandemic and the United States declared a National Public Health Emergency. The COVID-19 pandemic severely impacted
global economic conditions, resulting in substantial volatility in the global financial markets, increased unemployment, and operational
challenges such as the temporary closures of businesses, sheltering-in-place directives, and increased remote work protocols. Governments
and central banks around the world reacted to the economic crisis caused by the pandemic by implementing stimulus and liquidity programs
and cutting interest rates. In the fourth quarter of 2020, vaccines began to become available in the United States and as more people
were vaccinated the spread of COVID-19 slowed. In our market areas, most businesses are back to operating in a more normal capacity. If
the vaccine proves to be less effective than anticipated and the COVID-19 virus begins to spread again, the adverse impact on our local
and the global economy could worsen, and the financial position and net asset values of the Plan could be adversely affected. The impact
of COVID-19 on the Plan&rsquo;s financial position and net asset values remains dependent on future developments, including the effectiveness
of the vaccine and coverage of people receiving the vaccine.</P>
