NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Note 1 &#151; Basis of Presentation</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Kirkland&#146;s, Inc. (the &#147;Company&#148;) is a specialty retailer of home d&#233;cor with 324 stores in 34
states as of August&nbsp;2, 2008. The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the
accounts of Kirkland&#146;s, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Kirkland&#146;s Stores, Inc. and
Kirklands.com, Inc. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with
instructions to Form 10-Q and Article&nbsp;10 of Regulation&nbsp;S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of
the information and notes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, including normal recurring
adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the
Company&#146;s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May&nbsp;1,
2008.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It should be understood that accounting measurements at interim dates inherently involve
greater reliance on estimates than those at fiscal year end. In addition, because of seasonality
factors, the results of the Company&#146;s operations for the 13-week and 26-week periods ended August
4, 2008, are not indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the
entire fiscal year. The Company&#146;s fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to January&nbsp;31, resulting
in years of either 52 or 53&nbsp;weeks. All references to a fiscal year refer to the fiscal year ending
on the Saturday closest to January&nbsp;31 of the following year.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions used.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Changes in estimates are recognized in the period when new information becomes available to
management. Areas where the nature of the estimate makes it reasonably possible that actual
results could materially differ from amounts estimated include: impairment assessments on
long-lived assets, inventory reserves, self-insurance reserves, income tax liabilities, stock-based
compensation, gift certificate and gift card breakage, customer loyalty program accruals and
contingent liabilities.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Note 2 &#151; Impairments</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company reviews long-lived assets with definite lives at least annually and whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be
recoverable. This review includes the evaluation of individual underperforming retail stores and
assessing the recoverability of the carrying value of the fixed assets related to the store. Future
cash flows are projected for the remaining lease life. If the estimated future cash flows are less
than the carrying value of the assets, the Company records an impairment charge equal to the
difference, if any, between the assets&#146; fair value and carrying value.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During the first quarter of fiscal 2008, the Company recorded an impairment charge totaling
approximately $352,000 for the difference in estimated fair value and the carrying value of the
fixed assets related to three stores with negative operating cash flows for the trailing 52&nbsp;weeks.
There was no impairment charge recorded in the second quarter of fiscal 2008.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Note 3 &#151; Income Taxes</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Effective Tax Rate &#151; </I>The Company calculates its annual effective tax rate in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.&nbsp;109, &#147;Accounting for Income Taxes.&#148; The
seasonality of the Company&#146;s business is such that the Company expects to offset losses in the
early periods of the fiscal year with income in the later periods of the year. The Company did not
record an income tax benefit for the 26-week period ended August&nbsp;2, 2008 as a result of the
Company&#146;s cumulative losses in recent years. The Company utilized its available carryback benefit
of approximately $2.9&nbsp;million as of the end of fiscal 2007 and subsequently received a federal tax
refund in the amount of approximately $2.9&nbsp;million during the first half of fiscal 2008.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the differences between the
financial statement and the tax law treatment of certain items. Realization of certain components
of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the occurrence of future events. The Company records
valuation allowances to reduce its deferred tax assets to the amount it believes is more likely
than not to be realized. These valuation allowances can be impacted by changes in tax laws, changes
to statutory tax rates, and future taxable income levels and are based on the Company&#146;s judgment,
estimates, and assumptions regarding those future events. In the event the Company were to
determine that it would not be able to realize all or a portion of the net deferred tax assets in
the future, the Company would increase the valuation allowance through a charge to income tax
expense in the period that such determination is made. Conversely, if the Company were to determine
that it would be able to realize its deferred tax assets in the future, in excess of the net
carrying amounts, the Company would decrease the recorded valuation allowance through a decrease to
income tax expense in the period that such determination is made. As of August&nbsp;2, 2008, the
Company remains uncertain about its ability to use the net deferred tax assets; therefore, a full
valuation allowance continues to be recorded.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company provides for uncertain tax positions and the related interest and penalties, if
any, based upon management&#146;s assessment of whether a tax benefit is more likely than not to be
sustained upon examination by tax authorities. At August&nbsp;2, 2008, the Company believes it has
appropriately accounted for any unrecognized tax benefits. To the extent the Company prevails in
matters for which a liability for an unrecognized tax benefit is established or is required to pay
amounts in excess of the liability, the Company&#146;s effective tax rate in a given financial statement
period may be affected. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would
affect the effective tax rate is approximately $406,000 at August&nbsp;2, 2008. The Company does not
currently anticipate that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase
or decrease by the end of fiscal 2008.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Note 4 &#151; Loss Per Share</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Basic loss per share is based upon the weighted average number of outstanding common shares,
which excludes non-vested restricted stock. Since the Company experienced a net loss for the 13 and
26-week periods ended August&nbsp;2, 2008 and August&nbsp;4, 2007, all outstanding stock options are excluded
from the calculation of diluted loss per share due to their anti-dilutive impact.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Note 5 &#151; Commitments and Contingencies</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company is party to pending legal proceedings and claims. Although the outcome of such
proceedings and claims cannot be determined with certainty, the Company&#146;s management is of the
opinion that it is remote that these proceedings and claims will have a material effect on the
financial condition, operating results or cash flows of the Company.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><I>Office lease agreement</I>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On March&nbsp;1, 2007, the Company entered into an Office Lease Agreement, effective as of March&nbsp;1,
2007 with a landlord, whereby the Company leased 27,547 square feet of office space in Nashville,
Tennessee for a seven-year

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">term. The Agreement provides for annual rent beginning at $13 per square
foot for the first year and increasing each year to $15.45 per square foot in the last year. The
Agreement also includes an option to renew the lease for an additional seven years, with the rent
for such option period to be at the then-current market rental rate. The office
primarily houses the merchandising and marketing, store operations and real estate teams, as well
as certain other senior management personnel. The one-time initial opening costs of the Nashville
office were approximately $1.3&nbsp;million before taxes, or $0.06 per diluted share in fiscal 2007.

sold no later than the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2009. During the first quarter of fiscal
2008, the Company determined that the plan of sale criteria in FASB Statement No.&nbsp;144, &#147;Accounting
for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,&#148; had been met. The estimated net realizable
value of the land and building that is held for sale is separately presented in the consolidated
balance sheets. The balances shown at February&nbsp;2, 2008 and August&nbsp;4, 2007 have been reclassified
to be consistent with this presentation.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In September&nbsp;2006, the FASB issued Statement No.&nbsp;157 <I>Fair Value Measurements</I>, or Statement
157. Statement 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and
expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Statement 157 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after November&nbsp;15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. FASB Staff
Position No.&nbsp;FAS 157-2 <I>Effective Date of FASB Statement 157</I>, or FSP 157-2, delays the effective
date of Statement 157 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities except for items that
are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. For
these items, the effective date will be for fiscal years beginning after November&nbsp;15, 2008.
Kirkland&#146;s adopted Statement 157 effective February&nbsp;3, 2008. Management does not believe the
adoption has had or will have a material impact on the Company&#146;s financial statements.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Net sales. </I>The overall increase in net sales was primarily due to an increase in comparable
store sales of 2.8% for the period. Comparable store sales in our mall store locations were up
7.2% for the second quarter, while comparable store sales for our off-mall store locations were up
0.7%. The comparable store sales increase was primarily due to an increase in transaction volume
driven by higher customer conversion rates offset by a slight decline in the average ticket. The
average ticket reflected an increase in items per transaction offset by a decrease in the average
retail selling price. The strongest performing categories were art, furniture, floral, and gift
while the weakest performing categories were mirrors and textiles.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We opened one new store during the second quarter of fiscal 2008 and 35 stores in fiscal 2007,
and we closed two stores during the second quarter of fiscal 2008 and 49 stores in fiscal 2007. We
ended the second quarter of fiscal 2008 with 324 stores in operation compared to 347 stores as of
the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2007, representing a 7% decrease in the store base and a 3%
decrease in total square footage under lease. The impact of this
decrease in the store base was
offset by the increase of 2.8% in comparable store sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2008.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Gross profit</I>. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of net sales resulted from a
combination of factors. The merchandise margin increased from 47.9% in the second quarter of fiscal
2007 to 50.9% in the second quarter of fiscal 2008. Merchandise margin is calculated as net sales
minus product cost of sales, excluding outbound freight, store occupancy, and central distribution
costs. Merchandise markdowns were lower in the current year due to better sell through and a more
compelling product offering. Additionally, the level of promotional activity was reduced compared
to the heavy use of coupons in the prior year quarter. The occupancy ratio decreased versus the
prior year period primarily due to the leveraging effect of the positive comparable store sales.
Additionally, rent reductions achieved in certain lease renewals and the closing of underperforming
stores also benefited the comparison. Freight costs as a percentage of sales were slightly higher than the prior year period due to
higher fuel prices. Central distribution costs
as a percentage of sales were slightly higher than the prior year as a result of increased distribution center inbound and outbound
activity against a relatively static total revenue base.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Compensation and benefits. </I>At the store-level, the compensation and benefits expense ratio
decreased for the second quarter of fiscal 2008 as compared to the second quarter of 2007 primarily
due to the positive comparable store sales performance. At the corporate level, the compensation
and benefits ratio decreased for the second quarter of 2008 as compared to the second quarter of
2007 primarily due to the reductions in corporate salaries and benefits as a result of personnel
reductions in late fiscal 2007.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Other operating expenses</I>. The decrease in these operating expenses as a percentage of net
sales was primarily due to the positive comparable store sales performance and the effect of large
reductions in marketing activities as compared to the prior year period. Corporate level operating
expenses decreased as a percentage of net sales due to the positive comparable store sales
performance coupled with lower professional fees and travel expenses. Also, in the prior year
period, we incurred expenses of approximately $762,000 related to the opening of a satellite office
in Nashville, Tennessee.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Impairment charges. </I>There was no impairment charge during the second quarter of fiscal 2008.
In the prior year period, we incurred a charge related to the impairment of fixed assets related to
certain underperforming stores in the amount of approximately $540,000.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Depreciation and amortization. </I>The decrease in depreciation and amortization as a percentage
of sales was primarily the result of the positive comparable store sales performance combined with
a reduction in capital spending in recent periods as well as a smaller store base.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Income tax provision (benefit). </I>No income tax benefit has been recorded in the current year
quarter due to our provision of a full valuation allowance against deferred tax assets because of
our cumulative losses in recent years. In the prior quarter, we recorded a net income tax benefit
of $3.5&nbsp;million offset largely by a charge of $2.8&nbsp;million to initially record the valuation
allowance.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Net loss and loss per share. </I>As a result of the foregoing, we reported a net loss of $1.7
million, or $0.09 per share, for the second quarter of fiscal 2008 as compared to a net loss of
$9.2&nbsp;million, or $0.47 per share, for the second quarter of fiscal 2007.

</TABLE>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Net sales. </I>The overall increase in net sales was primarily due to an increase in comparable
store sales of 3.5% for the period. Comparable store sales in our mall store locations were up
8.2% for the first half, while comparable store sales for our off-mall store locations were up
1.3%. The comparable store sales increase was primarily due to an increase in transaction volume
driven by higher customer conversion rates offset by a slight decline in the average ticket. The
average ticket reflected an increase in items per transaction offset by a decrease in the average
retail selling price.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We opened 3 new stores during the first half of fiscal 2008 and 35 stores in fiscal 2007, and
we closed 14 stores during the first half of fiscal 2008 and 49 stores in fiscal 2007. We ended the
second quarter of fiscal 2008 with 324 stores in operation compared to 347 stores as of the end of
the second quarter of fiscal 2007, representing a 7% decrease in the store base and a 3% decrease
in total square footage under lease. The impact of this decrease in the store base was offset by
the increase of 3.5% in comparable store sales for the first half of fiscal 2008.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Gross profit</I>. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of net sales resulted from a
combination of factors. The merchandise margin increased from 49.4% in the first half of fiscal
2007 to 51.8% in the first half of fiscal 2008. Merchandise margin is calculated as net sales minus
product cost of sales, excluding outbound freight, store occupancy, and central distribution costs.
Merchandise markdowns were lower in the current year due to better sell through and a more
compelling product offering. Additionally, the level of promotional activity was reduced compared
to the heavy use of coupons in the prior year period. The occupancy ratio decreased versus the
prior year period primarily due to the leveraging effect of the positive comparable store sales.
Additionally, rent reductions achieved in certain lease renewals and the closing of underperforming
stores also benefited the comparison. Freight costs were slightly higher as a percentage of net
sales in the prior year period due to higher fuel prices. Central distribution costs were
relatively flat as a percentage of net sales.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Compensation and benefits. </I>At the store-level, the compensation and benefits expense ratio
decreased for the first half of fiscal 2008 as compared to the first half of 2007 primarily due to
the positive comparable store sales performance. At the corporate level, the compensation and
benefits ratio decreased for the first half of 2008 as compared to the first half of 2007 primarily
due to the reductions in corporate salaries and benefits as a result of personnel reductions in
late fiscal 2007.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Other operating expenses</I>. The decrease in these operating expenses as a percentage of net
sales was primarily due to the positive comparable store sales performance and the effect of large
reductions in marketing activities as compared to the prior year period. Corporate level operating
expenses decreased as a percentage of net sales due to the positive comparable store sales
performance coupled with lower professional fees and travel expenses. Also, in the
prior year period, we incurred expenses of approximately $762,000 related to the opening of a
satellite office in Nashville, Tennessee.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Impairment
charges. </I>During the first half of fiscal 2008, we incurred a charge related to the
impairment of fixed assets related to certain underperforming stores in the pre-tax amount of
approximately $352,000, or $0.02 per diluted share compared to impairment charges of $813,000 in
the prior year period.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Depreciation and amortization. </I>The decrease in depreciation and amortization as a percentage
of sales was primarily the result of the positive comparable store sales performance combined with
a reduction in capital spending in recent periods and a smaller store base.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Income tax provision (benefit). </I>No income tax benefit has been recorded in the current year
due to our provision of a full valuation allowance against deferred tax assets because of our
cumulative losses in recent years. In the prior year period, we recorded a net income tax benefit
of $3.5&nbsp;million offset largely by a charge of $2.8&nbsp;million to initially record the valuation
allowance.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Net loss and loss per share. </I>As a result of the foregoing, we reported a net loss of $4.2
million, or $0.22 per share, for the first half of fiscal 2008 as compared to a net loss of $16.7
million, or $0.86 per share, for the first half of fiscal 2007.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Liquidity and Capital Resources</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our principal capital requirements are for working capital and capital expenditures. Working
capital consists mainly of merchandise inventories offset by accounts payable, which typically
reach their peak by the end of the third quarter of each fiscal year. Capital expenditures
primarily relate to new store openings; existing store expansions, remodels or relocations; and
purchases of equipment or information technology assets for our stores, distribution facilities or
corporate headquarters. Historically, we have funded our working capital and capital expenditure
requirements with internally generated cash and borrowings under our credit facility.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Cash flows from operating activities. </I>Net cash used in operating activities was $155,000 and
$28.3&nbsp;million for the first half of fiscal 2008 and fiscal 2007, respectively. Net cash used in
operating activities depends heavily on operating performance, changes in working capital and the
timing and amount of payments for income taxes. The change in the amount of cash from operations as
compared to the prior year period was significantly impacted by the improvement in our operating
performance resulting from the 3.5% increase in our year-to-date comparable store sales, the
increase in profit margin and the reduction in operating expenses. Inventories increased
approximately $1.5&nbsp;million during the first half of fiscal 2008 as compared to an increase of $2.6
million during the prior year period. Inventories averaged approximately $132,000 per store at
August&nbsp;2, 2008, as compared to $137,000 per store at August&nbsp;4, 2007. Accounts payable decreased
$2.0&nbsp;million during the first half of fiscal 2008 as compared to a decrease of $8.6&nbsp;million for the
prior year period. The change in accounts payable is primarily due to the timing and amount of
merchandise receipt flow. We also received an income tax refund of approximately $2.9&nbsp;million
during the first half of fiscal 2008 whereas we made cash tax payments of approximately $2.5
million in the prior-year period.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Cash flows from investing activities. </I>Net cash used in investing activities for the first
half of fiscal 2008 consisted principally of $1.9&nbsp;million in capital expenditures as compared to
$7.7&nbsp;million for the prior year period. These expenditures primarily related to new store
construction. During the first half of fiscal 2008, we opened three stores compared to 18 stores in
the prior year period. We expect that capital expenditures for all of fiscal 2008 will be
between $3 and $4&nbsp;million, primarily to fund the maintenance of our existing investments in stores,
information technology, and the distribution center, as well as the opening of three to five new
stores. As of August&nbsp;2, 2008, we had no new lease commitments for new stores. We anticipate that
capital expenditures, including leasehold improvements and furniture and fixtures, and equipment
for our new stores in fiscal 2008 will average approximately $400,000 to $430,000 per store. We
also anticipate that we will receive landlord allowances in connection with the construction of our
new stores in fiscal 2008. These allowances are reflected as a component of cash flows from
operating activities within our consolidated statement of cash flows. Additionally, during the

and $13.0&nbsp;million for the first half of fiscal 2008 and fiscal 2007, respectively. Cash flows from
financing activities for the first half of fiscal 2008 were related to employee stock purchases.
During the first half of fiscal 2007, cash flows from financing activities primarily related to
bank revolver borrowings.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Revolving credit facility. </I>Effective October&nbsp;4, 2004, we entered into a five-year senior
secured revolving credit facility with a revolving loan limit of up to $45&nbsp;million. On August&nbsp;6,
2007, we entered into the First Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement (the &#147;Amendment&#148;) which
provided the Company with additional availability under our borrowing base through higher advance
rates on eligible inventory. As a result of the amendment, the aggregate size of the overall credit
facility remained unchanged at $45&nbsp;million, but the term of the facility was extended two years
making the new expiration date October&nbsp;4, 2011. Amounts outstanding under the amended facility,
other than First In Last Out (&#147;FILO&#148;) loans, bear interest at a floating rate equal to the 60-day
LIBOR rate (2.66% at August&nbsp;2, 2008) plus 1.25% to 1.50% (depending on the amount of excess
availability under the borrowing base). FILO loans, which apply to the first approximate $2&nbsp;million
borrowed at any given time, bear interest at a floating rate equal to the 60-day LIBOR rate plus
2.25% to 2.50% (depending on the amount of excess availability under the borrowing base).
Additionally, we pay a quarterly fee to the bank equal to a rate of 0.2% per annum on the unused
portion of the revolving line of credit. Borrowings under the facility are collateralized by
substantially all of our assets and guaranteed by our subsidiaries. The maximum availability under
the credit facility is limited by a borrowing base formula, which consists of a percentage of
eligible inventory and receivables less reserves. The facility also contains provisions that could
result in changes to the presented terms or the acceleration of maturity. Circumstances that could
lead to such changes or acceleration include a material adverse change in the business or an event
of default under the credit agreement. The facility has one financial covenant that requires the
Company to maintain excess availability under the borrowing base, as defined in the credit
agreement, of at least $3.0&nbsp;million to $4.5&nbsp;million depending on the size of the borrowing base, at
all times.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As of August&nbsp;2, 2008, we were in compliance with the covenants in the facility and there were
no outstanding borrowings under the credit facility, with approximately $24.1&nbsp;million available for
borrowing (net of the availability block as described above).
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;At August&nbsp;2, 2008, our balance of cash and cash equivalents was approximately $4.7&nbsp;million and
the borrowing availability under our facility was $24.1&nbsp;million (net of the availability block as
described above). During fiscal 2007, we undertook a number of measures to reduce expenses and
improve liquidity, including corporate headcount reductions, slowing store growth, closing
underperforming stores, commencing the sale of non-essential assets, enhancing and maximizing our
existing credit facility, and reducing our planned inventory needs. We also received approximately
$2.9&nbsp;million in federal tax refunds during the first half of fiscal 2008. We believe that cash
flow from operations, including the impact of the aforementioned initiatives, coupled with funds
received from the sale of assets will result in peak borrowings that are lower than the prior year
and will be sufficient to fund our planned capital expenditures and working capital requirements
for at least the next twelve months.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Market risks related to our operations result primarily from changes in short-term London
Inter-Bank Offered Rates, or LIBOR, as our senior credit facility utilizes short-term LIBOR rates
and/or contracts. The base interest rate used in our senior credit facility is the 60-day LIBOR,
however, from time to time, we may enter into one or more LIBOR contracts. These LIBOR contracts
vary in length and interest rate, such that adverse changes in short-term interest rates could
affect our overall borrowing rate when contracts are renewed.
