</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><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 321 stores in 34
states as of November&nbsp;1, 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 39-week periods ended November
1, 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 and Severance Charges</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 third quarter of
fiscal 2008, or fiscal 2007. During the first two
quarters of fiscal 2007, the Company recorded impairment charges totaling $813,000.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During the third quarter of fiscal 2007, the Company incurred a charge related to separation
costs associated with a restructuring of corporate personnel that occurred during the quarter. This
charge totaled approximately $965,000, or $0.04 per share. The Company eliminated 74 positions,
including field multi-unit management and corporate positions at its Jackson and Nashville offices.

<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 39-week period ended November&nbsp;1, 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. Included
in income tax expense for the 39-week period ended November&nbsp;3, 2007 is an adjustment to record a
valuation allowance against the Company&#146;s net deferred tax assets of approximately $2.8&nbsp;million, or
$0.14 per diluted share.
</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 November&nbsp;1, 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 November&nbsp;1, 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 $300,000 at November&nbsp;1, 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
39-week periods ended November&nbsp;1, 2008 and November&nbsp;3, 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 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

</DIV>


<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 decrease in net sales was primarily due to a decrease in average store
count during the quarter, slightly offset by an increase in comparable store sales of 1.2% for the
period. Comparable store sales in our mall store locations were up 2.2% for the third quarter,
while comparable store sales for our off-mall store locations were up 0.8%. The comparable store
sales increase was primarily due to an increase in the average ticket partially offset by a decline
in the number of transactions. The average ticket was up during the quarter reflecting an increase
in items per transactions. Transactions decreased during the quarter reflecting a slight decrease
in traffic counts and customer conversion rates. The strongest performing categories were art,
lamps, furniture, and floral.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We did not open any new stores during the third quarter of fiscal 2008 and opened 35 stores in
fiscal 2007, and we closed three stores during the third quarter of fiscal 2008 and 49 stores in
fiscal 2007. We ended the third quarter of fiscal 2008 with 321 stores in operation compared to 354
stores as of the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2007, representing a 9.3% decrease in the store
base and a 7.1% decrease in total square footage under lease.

<DIV style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif">

<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 48.9% in the third quarter of fiscal
2007 to 52.9% in the third 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 closing underperforming stores as well as favorable lease
renewals and extensions. The continued shift of the store base to less costly, off-mall locations
also helped improve the ratio. Freight costs as a percentage of sales were flat as compared to the
prior year period. Central distribution costs as a percentage of sales were slightly higher than
the prior year as a result of a decreased 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
was slightly higher during the third quarter of fiscal 2008 as compared to the third quarter of
2007. We experienced an increase in average hourly wages at the store level which was somewhat
offset by higher comparable store sales during the third quarter of fiscal 2008. At the corporate
level, the compensation and benefits ratio remained flat for the third quarter of 2008 as compared
to the third quarter of 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. During the third quarter of
fiscal 2007, the Company incurred a charge related to separation costs associated with a
restructuring of corporate personnel that occurred during the quarter. This charge totaled
approximately $965,000, or $0.04 per share. The Company eliminated 74 positions, including field
multi-unit management and corporate positions at its Jackson and Nashville offices.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Depreciation and amortization. </I>Depreciation and amortization remained flat as a percentage of
sales as a result of a reduction in capital expenditures in recent quarters offset by the
acceleration of depreciation on planned store closings and a smaller average 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 year quarter, we incurred tax expense of $1.8
million due to the limited ability to carryback losses for two tax years.
</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 $1.5
million, or $0.07 per share, for the third quarter of fiscal 2008 as compared to a net loss of
$10.7&nbsp;million, or $0.55 per share, for the third 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 decrease in net sales was primarily due to a decrease in the average
store count offset by an increase in comparable store sales of 2.7% for the period. Comparable
store sales in our mall store locations were up 6.2% for the first three quarters, while comparable
store sales for our off-mall store locations were up 1.1%. The comparable store sales increase was
primarily due to an increase in transaction volume driven by higher customer conversion rates
coupled with a slight increase 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 three quarters of fiscal 2008 and 35 stores in fiscal
2007, and we closed 17 stores during the first three quarters of fiscal 2008 and 49 stores in
fiscal 2007. We ended the third quarter of fiscal 2008 with 321 stores in operation compared to 354
stores as of the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2007, representing a 9.3% decrease in the store
base and a 7.1% decrease in total square footage under lease.
</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 48.9% in the first three quarters of
fiscal 2007 to 51.8% in the first three quarters 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 and central
distribution costs were flat as a percentage of net sales as compared to the prior year period.
</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 three quarters of fiscal 2008 as compared to the first three quarters of
2007 primarily due to the positive comparable store sales performance offset slightly by a higher
average wage during the third quarter of fiscal 2008. At the corporate level, the compensation and
benefits ratio decreased for the first three quarters of 2008 as compared to the first three
quarters 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 at the store level 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 $1.2&nbsp;million, or $0.05 per diluted
share, related to the opening of a satellite office in Nashville, Tennessee. These expenses were
associated with personnel relocation costs and moving expenses.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Impairment charges. </I>During the first three quarters 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>Severance charge. </I>During the third quarter of fiscal 2007, we incurred a charge related to
separation costs associated with a restructuring of corporate personnel that occurred during the
quarter. This charge totaled approximately $965,000, or $0.04 per share.
</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. During the second quart of fiscal 2007, we established a
valuation allowance on our net deferred tax assets in the amount of $2.8&nbsp;million.
</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 $5.7
million, or $0.29 per share, for the first three quarters of fiscal 2008 as compared to a net loss
of $27.4&nbsp;million, or $1.40 per share, for the first three quarters 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
$5.4&nbsp;million and $34.1&nbsp;million for the first three quarters 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 used in operating activities as compared to the prior year period was significantly impacted
by the improvement in our operating performance resulting from the 2.7% increase in our
year-to-date comparable store sales, the increase in profit margin and the reduction in operating
expenses. Inventories increased approximately $17.5&nbsp;million during the first three quarters of
fiscal 2008 as compared to an increase of $18.0&nbsp;million during the prior year period. Inventories
averaged approximately $183,000 per store at November&nbsp;1, 2008, as compared to $177,000 per store at
November&nbsp;3, 2007. Accounts payable increased $6.0&nbsp;million during the first three quarters of fiscal
2008 as compared to an increase of $3.6&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 three quarters of fiscal 2008
whereas we made cash tax payments of approximately $2.5&nbsp;million in the prior-year period.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Cash flows from investing activities. </I>Net cash provided by investing activities for
the first three quarters of fiscal 2008 consisted principally of the sale of our corporate aircraft
and former corporate headquarters building and land in Jackson, Tennessee resulting in net proceeds
of approximately $816,000 and $2.8&nbsp;million, respectively. These cash inflows were offset by
capital expenditures for the period of approximately $2.1&nbsp;million as compared to $11.8&nbsp;million for
the prior year period. These expenditures primarily related to new store construction. During the
first three quarters 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 approximately $3 million, primarily to fund the maintenance of our existing investments in stores, information
technology, and the distribution center, as well as the openings of the three new stores. As of
November&nbsp;1, 2008, we had no new lease commitments for new stores. Capital

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">expenditures, including leasehold improvements and furniture and fixtures, and equipment for our new stores in
fiscal 2008 average approximately $400,000 to $430,000 per store. We received landlord allowances
in connection with the construction of our three new stores in fiscal 2008 which are reflected as a
component of cash flows from operating activities within our consolidated statement of cash flows.</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Cash flows from financing activities. </I>Net cash provided by financing activities was $69,000
and $20.9&nbsp;million for the first three quarters of fiscal 2008 and fiscal 2007, respectively. Cash
flows from financing activities for the first three quarters of fiscal 2008 were related to
employee stock purchases. During the first three quarters 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 (2.97% at November&nbsp;1, 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 November&nbsp;1, 2008, we were in compliance with the covenants in the facility and
there were no outstanding borrowings under the credit facility, with approximately $41&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 November&nbsp;1, 2008, our balance of cash and cash equivalents was approximately $2.0
million and the borrowing availability under our facility was $41&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>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition to factors set forth in &#147;Management&#146;s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations &#151; Cautionary Statement for Purposes of the &#145;Safe Harbor&#146;
Provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995,&#148; in Part&nbsp;I &#151; Item&nbsp;2 of this
report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part&nbsp;I, &#147;Item&nbsp;1A. Risk Factors&#148; in
our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February&nbsp;2,
2008, and the new risk factor set forth below which could materially affect
our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in this report and in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and
uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may
materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B><I>Our performance may be affected by general economic conditions and the current global
financial crisis.</I></B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our performance is subject to worldwide economic conditions and their impact on levels of
consumer spending, which have recently deteriorated significantly and may remain depressed, or be
subject to further deterioration, for the foreseeable future. Some of the factors that are having
an impact on discretionary consumer spending include general economic conditions, employment,
consumer debt, reductions in net worth based on recent severe market declines, residential real
estate and mortgage markets, taxation, fuel and energy prices, interest rates, consumer confidence
and other macroeconomic factors.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The worldwide specialty retail industry is heavily influenced by general economic cycles:
Specialty retail is a cyclical industry that is heavily dependent upon the overall level of
consumer spending. Purchases of home d&#233;cor tend to be highly correlated with the cycles of the
levels of disposable income of our consumers. As a result, any substantial deterioration in
general economic conditions could adversely affect our net sales and results of operations.
Downturns, or the expectation of a downturn, in general economic conditions could adversely affect
consumer spending patterns, our sales and our results of operations.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Consumer purchases of discretionary items generally decline during recessionary periods and
other periods where disposable income is adversely affected. The downturn in the economy may
continue to affect consumer purchases of our merchandise and have an adversely impact on our
results of operations and continued growth. Because home d&#233;cor is generally considered to be a
discretionary purchase, declines in consumer spending may have a more negative affect on specialty
retailers in our industry segment than on retailers in general. Therefore, we may not be
profitable if there is a decline in consumer spending.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The recent distress in the financial markets has resulted in extreme volatility in security
prices and diminished liquidity and credit availability, and there can be no assurance that our
liquidity will not be affected by changes in the financial markets and the global economy.
Tightening of the credit markets and recent or future turmoil in the financial markets could also
make it more difficult for us to access funds, refinance our existing indebtedness (if necessary),
to enter into agreements for new indebtedness or to obtain funding through the issuance of the our
securities.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition, the current credit crisis is having a significant negative impact on businesses
around the world, and the impact of this crisis on our major suppliers cannot be predicted. The
inability of key suppliers to access liquidity, or the insolvency of key suppliers, could lead to
their failure to deliver our merchandise. Worsening economic conditions could also result in
difficulties for financial institutions (including bank failures) and other parties that we may do
business with, which could potentially, impair our ability to access financing under existing
arrangements or to otherwise recover amounts as they become due under our other contractual
arrangements. Additionally, both as a result and independent of the current financial crisis in
the United States, material fluctuations in currency exchange rates could have a negative impact on
our business.
