of our business sells our products through our five retail store concepts (Williams-Sonoma, Pottery Barn, Pottery Barn Kids, Hold Everything and West Elm). The direct-to-customer segment of our business sells similar products through our eight
direct-mail catalogs (Williams-Sonoma, Pottery Barn, Pottery Barn Kids, Pottery Barn Bed + Bath, PBteen,&nbsp;Hold Everything, West Elm and Williams-Sonoma Home) and six e-commerce websites (williams-sonoma.com, potterybarn.com, potterybarnkids.com,
pbteen.com, westelm.com and holdeverything.com). Based on net revenues in fiscal 2004, retail net revenues accounted for 57.7% of our business and direct-to-customer net revenues accounted for 42.3% of our business. Based on their contribution to
our net revenues in fiscal 2004, the core brands in both retail and direct-to-customer are: Pottery Barn, which sells contemporary tableware and home furnishings; Williams-Sonoma, which sells cookware essentials; and Pottery Barn Kids, which sells
stylish children&#146;s furnishings. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We were founded in 1956 by Charles E.
Williams, currently a Director Emeritus, with the opening of our first store in Sonoma, California. Today, the Williams-Sonoma stores offer a wide selection of culinary and serving equipment, including cookware, cookbooks, cutlery, informal
dinnerware, glassware, table linens, specialty foods and cooking ingredients. Our direct-to-customer business began in 1972 when we introduced our flagship catalog, &#147;A Catalog for Cooks,&#148; which marketed the Williams-Sonoma brand.

five merchandising concepts (Williams-Sonoma, Pottery Barn, Pottery Barn Kids, Hold Everything and West Elm). As of January 30, 2005, we operated 552 retail stores, located in 43 states, Washington, D.C. and Canada. This represents 254
Williams-Sonoma, 183 Pottery Barn, 87 Pottery Barn Kids, 9 Hold Everything, 4 West Elm, and 15 Outlet stores (our Outlet stores carry merchandise from all merchandising concepts). </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT
SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In fiscal 2005, we expect to increase retail leased square footage by approximately 8% to 9%, including 28 new stores (8 in Pottery Barn, 7
in West Elm, 5 in Williams-Sonoma, 3 in Pottery Barn Kids, 3 in Williams-Sonoma Home and 2 in Hold Everything) and 10 remodeled stores (7 in Williams-Sonoma, 2 in Pottery Barn and 1 Outlet store) offset by the anticipated permanent closure of 2
Williams-Sonoma stores. The average leased square footage for new and expanded stores in fiscal 2005 will be approximately 16,300 leased square feet for West Elm, 13,900 leased square feet for Williams-Sonoma Home, 11,400 leased square feet for
Pottery Barn, 9,000 leased square feet for Hold Everything, 7,300 leased square feet for Pottery Barn Kids and 6,500 leased square feet for Williams-Sonoma. Detailed financial information about the retail segment is found in Note M to our

(Williams-Sonoma, Pottery Barn, Pottery Barn Kids, PBteen, Hold Everything, West Elm and Williams-Sonoma Home) and sells products through our eight direct-mail catalogs (Williams-Sonoma, Pottery Barn, Pottery Barn Kids, Pottery Barn Bed + Bath,
PBteen, Hold Everything, West Elm and Williams-Sonoma Home) and six e-commerce websites (williams-sonoma.com, potterybarn.com, potterybarnkids.com, pbteen.com, westelm.com and holdeverything.com). Of these seven merchandising concepts, the Pottery
Barn brand and its extensions have been the major source of sales growth in the direct-to-customer segment for the last several years. We believe that the success of the Pottery Barn brand and its extensions reflect our continuing investment in
product design, product quality and multi-channel marketing. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The
direct-to-customer channel over the past several years has been strengthened by the continued success of the Pottery Barn Kids brand, the introduction of e-commerce websites in all of our core brands and the launching of our newest brands, West Elm,
PBteen and Williams-Sonoma Home. Although the amount of e-commerce sales that are incremental to our direct-to-customer channel cannot be identified precisely, we estimate that approximately 40% of our company-wide non-gift registry Internet sales
are incremental to the direct-to-customer channel and approximately 60% are catalog-driven sales. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

stores, mail order catalogs and e-commerce websites compete with other retail stores, including large department stores, discount stores, other specialty retailers offering home centered assortments, other mail order catalogs and other e-commerce
websites. The substantial sales growth in the direct-to-customer industry within the last decade has encouraged the entry of many new competitors and an increase in competition from established companies. We compete on the basis of our brand
authority, the quality of our merchandise, service to our customers and our proprietary customer list, as well as location and appearance of our stores. We believe that we compare favorably with many of our current competitors with respect to some
or all of these factors. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Our business is subject to substantial seasonal
variations in demand. Historically, a significant portion of our revenues and net earnings have been realized during the period from October through December, and levels of net revenues and net earnings have generally been lower during the period
from January through September. We believe this is the general pattern associated with the direct-to-customer and retail industries. In anticipation of our peak season, we hire a substantial number of additional employees in our retail stores and
direct-to-customer processing and distribution areas, and incur significant fixed catalog production and mailing costs. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P

2,500,000 shares of our outstanding common stock. During fiscal 2004, we repurchased and retired 2,057,700 shares of our common stock under this program, in addition to 215,000 shares under our previously authorized stock repurchase program, at a
total cost of approximately $79,320,000, a weighted average cost of $34.90 per share. As of year-end, the remaining authorized number of shares eligible for repurchase was 442,300 shares. Stock repurchases under this program may be made through open
market and privately negotiated transactions at times and in such amounts as management deems appropriate. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors including price, corporate and regulatory requirements
and other market </FONT>

net revenues increase was primarily driven by increases in the Pottery Barn, Pottery Barn Kids, PBteen and Williams-Sonoma concepts. Increasing our revenues was a key strategic initiative for us in 2004 and we are pleased to have been able to
deliver these results, despite a significantly weaker than expected consumer response to the holiday merchandising strategies in the Pottery Barn brand in the fourth quarter. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT

year-over-year increase in retail leased square footage of 11.4%, including 40 net new stores, and a comparable store sales increase of 3.5%. Net sales generated in the Pottery Barn, Williams-Sonoma, and Pottery Barn Kids brands were the primary
contributors to the year-over-year sales increase, partially offset by the transitional impact of our Hold Everything brand realignment strategy. We achieved positive comparable store sales growth in each of our core brands in fiscal 2004.

2004 versus fiscal 2003. This year-over-year increase was primarily driven by net sales generated in the Pottery Barn, PBteen, Pottery Barn Kids and West Elm brands resulting from increased catalog and page count circulation and the continued
success of our e-commerce initiatives, as well as incremental net sales generated by the November launch of the Hold Everything e-commerce website. All of the brands in the direct-to-customer channel delivered positive growth during the fiscal year
with the exception of the Chambers brand, which was retired in the second quarter of 2004 in anticipation of the launch of the Williams-Sonoma Home brand in the third quarter of 2004. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT

from the e-commerce website that was launched in October 2003 and a 55% increase in catalog circulation. Although we continue to believe that it is too early to predict the ultimate growth potential of PBteen, the strong consumer response to this
brand leads us to believe that we have identified another underserved market segment in the home, similar to Pottery Barn Kids, that could provide a significant long-term growth opportunity for the future. </FONT></P> <P

year of significant transition in both the merchandising strategy and the lifestyle positioning of the brand. During 2004, we added significant management resources and infrastructure to support the future growth of the brand. In the
direct-to-customer channel, we increased catalog prospecting to revitalize the customer database and launched the first Hold Everything e-commerce website in November. We also opened three new prototype stores in November. Although the overall
growth in the Hold Everything brand met our expectations in 2004, its growth potential was limited by the breadth of the current merchandise assortment. We are currently in the process of developing substantially expanded assortments for 2005 and
2006. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Our newest brand, Williams-Sonoma Home, was launched in the third
quarter of 2004. On a circulation of over 10&nbsp;million catalogs, net sales in the brand were in line with the low end of our expectations. What we found especially encouraging about the initial consumer response to the overall merchandise
assortment was the stronger&nbsp;than expected demand for custom upholstered furniture, which we believe speaks to the long-term competitive advantage that we can create in this brand by leveraging the strength of our supply chain organization.

entered into in order to more cost-effectively manage our information technology infrastructure, while at the same time, enhancing the functionality of our e-commerce websites. We also continued to invest in our new direct-to-customer order
management and inventory management systems, which are currently in beta testing in our Hold Everything brand. These multi-phase, multi-year technology initiatives are at the heart of our long-term efforts to drive increased sales and reduced costs
through productivity and operational efficiency. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In the area of inventory

inventory management initiative, which resulted in a reduction in the base levels of our inventory due to more efficiently flowing merchandise through the supply chain. The sustainable benefit of this initiative, however, will not be realized until
we implement our new merchandising systems in 2006. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As we enter 2005, we will

contacts through electronic direct marketing, and intensify the marketing support behind our bridal and gift registry businesses. In our emerging brands, we plan to focus on executing initiatives that we believe will build brand awareness and
enhance customer access to the brands. In PBteen in 2005, we plan to increase catalog circulation and expand our successful on-line marketing initiatives. We also plan to drive aggressive name capture programs to expand our teen affinity database.
In West Elm, we plan to increase catalog circulation and open seven new retail stores. We continue to believe that West Elm has the potential to be our largest brand, if we can successfully evolve the merchandising strategy, broaden the overall
consumer appeal, and capture the mind share of the large consumer segment that West Elm targets. In Williams-Sonoma Home in 2005, we plan to increase catalog circulation, add catalog ordering functionality to the current e-catalog website, and open
three new prototype stores in the third quarter. We believe that the retail launch in Williams-Sonoma Home is strategic to expanding the multi-channel reach of the brand due to the customer&#146;s desire to interact with the product and fully
experience the design authority of the brand. In Hold Everything, we plan to significantly refine our catalog circulation strategy, expand our on-line marketing initiatives, and open two additional prototype stores. We also plan to introduce new
merchandise assortments throughout the year that will reflect the lifestyle transition of the brand, including a significantly enhanced assortment in furniture, casual upholstery, textiles, lighting, and tabletop. </FONT></P> <P

reduce returns, replacements and damages, particularly in furniture; improve our furniture sourcing and inventory management disciplines by implementing a long-term capacity and production planning process with key strategic vendors; and in-source
the management of a primary furniture hub to develop a new &#147;gold standard&#148; for customer service and to improve the overall operational efficiency of the furniture supply chain process. Additionally, we plan to test on a national basis a
new store replenishment program. During 2005, we will begin replenishing our retail store inventories on a daily basis with UPS providing the transportation services. The long-term benefits of this new replenishment program are to improve customer
service by reducing out of stocks in the stores, to reduce inventories in the back rooms of our stores and in local off-site storage locations, and to reduce inventory damages and shrinkage due to less handling of the merchandise. In the short-term,
however, we expect to incur additional costs to implement this test, which we estimate at approximately $0.01 per share in 2005. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P

by $382,563,000, or 13.9%, over fiscal 2003. The increase was primarily due to an increase in store leased square footage of 11.4% (including 43 new store openings and the remodeling and expansion of an additional 17 stores) and comparable store
sales growth of 3.5% in fiscal 2004. The increase was further driven by increased catalog and page count circulation (12.1% and 19.5%, respectively) and continued strength in our Internet business, primarily due to our expanded efforts associated
with our electronic direct marketing initiatives and the incremental sales generated by the late 2003 and 2004 launches of our emerging brands&#146; e-commerce websites. This increase was partially offset by the temporary closure of 15 stores and
the permanent closure of 5 stores in fiscal 2004. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Net revenues for fiscal

increased by $188,596,000, or 11.6%, over fiscal 2003 primarily due to an increase in store leased square footage of 11.4 % (including 43 new store openings and the remodeling and expansion of an additional 17 stores) and a comparable store sales
increase of 3.5%. This increase was partially offset by the temporary closure of 15 stores and the permanent closure of 5 stores during fiscal 2004. Net sales generated in the Pottery Barn, Williams-Sonoma and Pottery Barn Kids brands were the
primary contributors to the year-over-year sales increase, partially offset by the transitional impact of our Hold Everything brand realignment strategy. Pottery Barn and Pottery Barn Kids accounted for 65.8% of the growth in retail revenues from

square footage did not change by more than 20% in the previous 12 months and which have been open for at least 12 consecutive months without closure for seven or more consecutive days. Comparable stores exclude new retail concepts until such time as
the company believes that comparable store results in those concepts are meaningful to evaluating the performance of the retail strategy. In fiscal 2004, total company comparable store sales excluded one West Elm store. No stores were excluded in
fiscal 2003. By measuring the year-over-year sales of merchandise in the stores that have a history of being open for a full comparable 12 months or more, we can better gauge how the core store base is performing since it excludes store expansions
and closings. Percentages represent changes in comparable store sales versus the same period in the prior year. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Various factors affect comparable store sales, including the number of stores we open, close and expand in any period,
the general retail sales environment, consumer preferences and buying trends, changes in sales mix among distribution channels, our ability to efficiently source and distribute products, changes in our merchandise mix, competition, current local and
global economic conditions, the timing of our releases of new merchandise and promotional events, the success of marketing programs, and the cannibalization of existing store sales by new stores. Among other things, weather conditions can affect
comparable store sales because inclement weather can require us to close certain stores temporarily and thus reduce store traffic. Even if stores are not closed, many customers may decide to avoid going to stores in bad weather. These factors have
caused our comparable store sales to fluctuate significantly in the past on an annual, quarterly and monthly basis and, as a result, we expect that comparable store sales will continue to fluctuate in the future. </FONT></P> <P

2004 increased by $193,967,000, or 17.1%, over fiscal 2003. This increase was primarily driven by net sales generated in the Pottery Barn, PBteen, Pottery Barn Kids and West Elm brands. All of our brands in the direct-to-customer channel delivered
positive growth during the fiscal year with the exception of the Chambers brand, which was retired in the second quarter of 2004 in anticipation of the launch of the Williams-Sonoma Home brand in the third quarter of 2004. </FONT></P> <P

2002. This increase was primarily driven by net sales generated in the Pottery Barn and Pottery Barn Kids brands in addition to incremental sales from PBteen and West Elm. Net sales in the Pottery Barn brand were driven primarily by an increase in
the number of catalogs circulated and the momentum in our Internet business where traffic on the website increased substantially over fiscal 2002 and where conversion rates (the percentage of visitors to our website who make a purchase) continued to
exceed the industry norm. The net sales increase in the Pottery Barn Kids brand over fiscal 2002 was primarily driven by an increase in the number of catalogs circulated and increased productivity in on-line advertising, as well as the growth in our
baby and gift registry sales. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Internet sales increased $144,622,000, or

e-commerce websites, in addition to the November 2004 launch of the Hold Everything e-commerce website. Internet sales increased $132,448,000, or 66.1%, to $332,850,000 in fiscal 2003, from $200,402,000 in fiscal 2002, primarily driven by the
Pottery Barn and Pottery Barn Kids brands. Although the amount of e-commerce sales that are incremental to our direct-to-customer channel cannot be identified precisely, we estimate that approximately 40% of our company-wide non-gift registry
Internet sales are incremental to the direct-to-customer channel and approximately 60% are catalog-driven sales. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

inventory allocations between the coastal distribution centers and a need to ship merchandise out of market to our customers in order to fill backorders. This increase was substantially offset by a lower cost per shipment due to the full year
benefit of expense reductions in 2004 associated with the mid-2003 consolidation of freight providers, the in-sourcing of line-haul management in the furniture delivery network, and reductions in furniture delivery costs driven by efficiencies
gained from the new east coast distribution center. As a result of these efficiencies, shipping costs, as a percentage of shipping fees, have continued to decline to 79.7% in fiscal 2004 from 82.7% in fiscal 2003 and 87.4% in fiscal 2002.

SIZE="2">In June 2004, in an effort to utilize tax incentives offered to us by the state of Mississippi, we entered into an agreement whereby the Mississippi Business Finance Corporation issued $15,000,000 in long-term variable rate industrial
development bonds, the proceeds, net of debt issuance costs, of which were loaned to us to finance the acquisition and installation of leasehold improvements and equipment located in our newly leased Olive Branch distribution center (the
&#147;Mississippi Debt Transaction&#148;). The bonds are marketed through a remarketing agent and are secured by a letter of credit issued under our $200,000,000 line of credit facility. The bonds mature on June 1, 2024. The bond rate resets each
week based upon current market rates. The rate in effect at January 30, 2005 was 2.6%. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">The bond agreement allows for each bondholder to tender their bonds to the trustee for repurchase, on demand, with seven days advance notice. In the event the remarketing agent fails to remarket the bonds, the trustee will draw upon the
letter of credit to fund the purchase of the bonds. As of January 30, 2005, these bonds were classified as current debt. The bond proceeds are restricted for use in the acquisition and installation of leasehold improvements and equipment located in
our Olive Branch, Mississippi facility. As of January 30, 2005, we had acquired and installed $9,546,000 of leasehold improvements and equipment associated with the facility. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Prepaid catalog expenses consist of third party incremental direct costs, including creative design, paper, printing, postage and mailing costs for all of our direct response catalogs. Such costs are capitalized as
prepaid catalog expenses and are amortized over their expected period of future benefit. Such amortization is based upon the ratio of actual revenues to the total of actual and estimated future revenues on an individual catalog basis. Estimated
future revenues are based upon various factors such as the total number of catalogs and pages circulated, the probability and magnitude of consumer response and the assortment of merchandise offered. Each catalog is generally fully amortized over a
six to nine month period, with the majority of the amortization occurring within the first four to five months. Prepaid catalog expenses are evaluated for realizability on a monthly basis by comparing the carrying amount associated with each catalog
to the estimated probable remaining future profitability (remaining net revenues less merchandise cost of goods sold, selling expenses and catalog related-costs) associated with that catalog. If the catalog is not expected to be profitable, the
carrying amount of the catalog is impaired accordingly. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Property and

remodel or expand a store prior to the end of its lease term can result in accelerated depreciation over the revised useful life of the long-lived assets. For any early store closures where a lease obligation still exists, we record the estimated
future liability associated with the rental obligation on the date the store is closed in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (&#147;SFAS&#148;) No. 146, &#147;Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal
Activities.&#148; However, most store closures occur upon the lease expiration. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">We review the carrying value of all long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. In accordance with SFAS No. 144, &#147;Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,&#148; we review for impairment all stores for which current cash flows from operations are negative or the construction costs are significantly in excess of the amount originally expected. Impairment
results when the carrying value of the assets exceeds the undiscounted future cash flows over the life of the lease. Our estimate of undiscounted future cash flows over the lease term (typically 5 to 22 years) is based upon our experience,
historical operations of the stores and estimates of future store profitability and economic conditions. The future estimates of store profitability and economic conditions require estimating such factors as sales growth, employment rates, lease
escalations, inflation on operating expenses and the overall economics of the retail industry for up to twenty years in the future, and are therefore subject to variability and difficult to predict. If a long-lived asset is found to be impaired, the
amount recognized for impairment is equal to the difference between the carrying value and the asset&#146;s fair value. The fair value is estimated based upon future cash flows (discounted at a rate that approximates our weighted average cost of
capital) or other reasonable estimates of fair market value. See Note A to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding property and equipment. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

our ability to efficiently source and distribute products, changes in our merchandise mix, competition, current local and global economic conditions, the timing of our releases of new merchandise and promotional events, the success of marketing

review for impairment all stores for which current cash flows from operations are negative or the construction costs are significantly in excess of the amount originally expected. Impairment results when the carrying value of the assets exceeds the
undiscounted future cash flows over the life of the lease. Our estimate of undiscounted future cash flows over the lease term (typically 5 to 22 years) is based upon our experience, historical operations of the stores and estimates of future store
profitability and economic conditions. The future estimates of store profitability and economic conditions require estimating such factors as sales growth, employment rates, lease escalations, inflation on operating expenses and the overall
economics of the retail industry for up to twenty years in the future, and are therefore subject to variability and difficult to predict. If a long-lived asset is found to be impaired, the amount recognized for impairment is equal to the difference
between the carrying value and the asset&#146;s fair value. The fair value is estimated based upon future cash flows (discounted at a rate that approximates our weighted average cost of capital) or other reasonable estimates of fair market value.

Canadian dollar. Assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars using the current exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, while revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates during the period. The resulting
translation adjustments are recorded as other comprehensive income within shareholders&#146; equity. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions have not been significant and are included in selling, general and administrative
expenses. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Financial Instruments</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As of January
30, 2005, we have 11 retail stores in Canada, which expose us to market risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. As necessary, we have utilized 30-day foreign currency contracts to minimize any currency remeasurement risk
associated with intercompany assets and liabilities of our Canadian subsidiary. These contracts are accounted for by adjusting the carrying amount of the contract to market and recognizing any gain or loss in selling, general and administrative
expenses in each reporting period. We did not enter into any new foreign currency contracts during fiscal 2004. Any gain or loss associated with these contracts in prior years was not material to us. </FONT></P> <P

Compensation</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We account for stock options granted to employees using the intrinsic value method in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, &#147;Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.&#148;
Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized in the consolidated financial statements for stock options. SFAS No. 123, &#147;Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,&#148; as amended by SFAS No. 148, &#147;Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation &#151; Transition and Disclosure,&#148; however, requires the disclosure of pro forma net earnings and earnings per share as if we had adopted the fair value method. Under SFAS No. 123, the fair value of stock-based awards to employees
is calculated through the use of option pricing models. These models require subjective assumptions, including future stock price volatility and expected time to exercise, which affect the calculated values. Our calculations are based on a single
option valuation approach and forfeitures are recognized as they occur. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The

SIZE="2">In June 2004, in an effort to utilize tax incentives offered to us by the state of Mississippi, we entered into an agreement whereby the Mississippi Business Finance Corporation issued $15,000,000 in long-term variable rate industrial
development bonds, the proceeds, net of debt issuance costs, of which were loaned to us to finance the acquisition and installation of leasehold improvements and equipment located in our newly leased Olive Branch distribution center (the
&#147;Mississippi Debt Transaction&#148;). The bonds are marketed through a remarketing agent and are secured by a letter of credit issued under our $200,000,000 line of credit facility. The bonds mature on June 1, 2024. The bond rate resets each
week based upon current market rates. The rate in effect at January 30, 2005 was 2.6%. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">The bond agreement allows for each bondholder to tender their bonds to the trustee for repurchase, on demand, with seven days advance notice. In the event the remarketing agent fails to remarket the bonds, the trustee will draw upon the
letter of credit to fund the purchase of the bonds. As of January 30, 2005, these bonds were classified as current debt. The bond proceeds are restricted for use in the acquisition and installation of leasehold improvements and equipment located in
our Olive Branch, Mississippi facility. As of January 30, 2005, we had acquired and installed $9,546,000 of leasehold improvements and equipment associated with the facility. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT

we had a credit facility that provided for $200,000,000 of unsecured revolving credit and contained certain financial covenants, including a minimum tangible net worth covenant, a maximum leverage ratio (funded debt adjusted for lease and rent
expense to EBITDAR), a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and a maximum annual capital expenditures covenant. The credit facility was due to expire on October 22, 2005. On February 22, 2005, we entered into the Third Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement that amends and replaces our credit facility. The new credit facility provides for a $300,000,000 unsecured revolving line of credit that may be used for loans or letters of credit. Prior to August 22, 2009, we may, upon notice to the
lenders, request an increase in the new credit facility of up to $100,000,000, to provide for a total of $400,000,000 of unsecured revolving credit. The new credit facility contains events of default that include, among others, non-payment of
principal, interest or fees, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, violation of covenants, bankruptcy and insolvency events, material judgments, cross defaults to certain other indebtedness and events constituting a change of control. The
occurrence of an event of default will increase the applicable rate of interest by 2.0% and could result in the acceleration of our obligations under the new credit facility, and an obligation of any or all of our U.S. subsidiaries to pay the full
amount of our obligations under the new credit facility. The new credit facility matures on February 22, 2010, at which time all outstanding borrowings must be repaid and all outstanding letters of credit must be cash collateralized. </FONT></P> <P

and Exchange Commission (the &#147;SEC&#148;) clarified its position on certain lease accounting issues, including accounting for rent holidays under generally accepted accounting principles. In response to this clarification, we performed a
comprehensive review of our real property operating leases (including our stores, distribution centers, call centers, and office buildings) and our related accounting policies. Based on this review, we determined that the only area in which our
lease accounting policies were not consistent with the SEC&#146;s position was in the recognition of rent cost during rent holidays. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Prior to the publication of the SEC&#146;s letter, we did not recognize rent cost during rent holidays (defined as periods during which we have control of the premises
but are not obligated to pay rent, including build-out periods). We followed a practice prevalent in the retailing industry in which we recognized rent cost on a straight-line basis, beginning on the earlier of the operations commencement date or
the rent commencement date. This practice had the effect of excluding the rent holiday from the period over which we recognized rent cost. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">However, because our established accounting policy was to capitalize rent paid during build-out periods, the rent cost allocated to the rent holiday should have also been
capitalized. Accordingly, correcting our accounting for rent holidays had no impact on our Consolidated Statements of Earnings but did result in a net increase in property and equipment of approximately $17.4 million and a net increase in deferred
rent and lease incentives of approximately $17.4 million at January 30, 2005. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

us as of February 1, 2004. As of January 30, 2005, the consolidation had resulted in increases to our consolidated balance sheet of $18,882,000 in assets (primarily buildings), $17,000,000 in long-term debt, and $1,882,000 in other long-term
liabilities. Consolidation of these partnerships did not have an impact on our net income. However, the interest expense associated with the partnerships&#146; long-term debt, shown as occupancy expense in fiscal 2003, is now recorded as interest

retirement plan, the &#147;Williams-Sonoma, Inc. Associate Stock Incentive Plan&#148; (the &#147;Plan&#148;), for eligible employees, which is intended to be qualified under Internal Revenue Code Sections 401(a), 401(k) and 401(m). The Plan permits
eligible employees to make salary deferral contributions in accordance with Internal Revenue Code Section 401(k) up to 15% of eligible compensation each pay period (4% in the case of certain higher paid individuals). Employees designate the funds in
which their contributions are invested. Each participant may choose to have his or her salary deferral contributions and earnings thereon invested in one or more investment funds, including investing in our company stock fund. All amounts
contributed by the company are invested in our common stock fund. Through August 1, 2003, our matching contribution was equal to 100% of the first 6% of a participant&#146;s pay (4% for higher paid individuals), only if the participant elected to
invest in our company stock fund through salary deferral contributions. Subsequent to August 1, 2003, our matching contribution is equal to 50% of the participant&#146;s salary deferral contribution each pay period, taking into account only those
contributions that do not exceed 6% of the participant&#146;s eligible pay for the pay period (4% for higher paid individuals). Participants are no longer required to invest in our company stock fund in order to receive matching contributions. For
the first five years of the participant&#146;s employment, all matching contributions generally vest at the rate of 20% per year of service, measuring service from the participant&#146;s hire date. Thereafter, all matching contributions vest
immediately. Our contributions to the plan were $2,850,000 in fiscal 2004, $3,540,000 in fiscal 2003 and $4,433,000 in fiscal 2002. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P

performance, whether positive or negative, of selected investment measurement options, chosen by each participant, during the deferral period. At January 30, 2005, $10,348,000 was included in other long-term obligations. Additionally, we have

changes in an underlying obligation that is related to an asset, liability, or an equity security of the guaranteed party. We leased an aircraft over a term of 60 months, which ended in January 2005. At the end of the lease term, the lease allowed
us to either purchase the aircraft for $11,500,000 or sell it. If the proceeds were less than $11,500,000, we were required to pay the lessor the difference up to $9,080,000. In January 2005, we purchased the aircraft for $11,500,000 and the lessor

party for certain matters. These contracts primarily relate to our commercial contracts, operating leases, trademarks, intellectual property, financial agreements and various other agreements. Under these contracts, we may provide certain routine
indemnifications relating to representations and warranties or personal injury matters. The terms of these indemnifications range in duration and may not be explicitly defined. Historically, we have not made significant payments for these

The terms of the agreement require the payment of both fixed and variable charges over the life of the agreement. The variable charges are primarily based on CPU hours, storage capacity and support services that are expected to fluctuate throughout
the term of the agreement. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Under the terms of the agreement, we are subject
to a minimum charge over the five-year term of the agreement. This minimum charge is based on both a fixed and variable component calculated as a percentage of the total estimated service charges over the five-year term of the agreement. As of
January 30, 2005, we estimate the remaining minimum charge to be approximately $21,000,000. The fixed component of this minimum charge will be paid annually not to exceed approximately $5,000,000, while the variable component will be based on usage.
The agreement can be terminated at any time for cause and after 24 months for convenience. In the event the agreement is terminated for convenience, a graduated termination fee will be assessed based on the time period remaining in the contract
term, not to exceed $9,000,000. During fiscal 2004, we recognized expense of approximately $3,000,000 relating to this agreement. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P

wage and hour and unfair business practice laws and seeks damages, penalties under California&#146;s wage and hour laws, restitution and attorneys&#146; fees and costs. We are vigorously investigating and defending this litigation. Because the case

evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal
control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating management&#146;s assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and
performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P

financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the company&#146;s board of directors, management, and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation

records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable
assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company&#146;s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. </FONT></P> <P
