On May 5, 2016, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order authorizing the joint administration of these casespursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 1015(b). On May 11, 2016, the United States Trustee for Region2 (the “U.S.Trustee”) appointed an official committee of unsecured creditors pursuant to section 1102(a)(1) of the BankruptcyCode (the “Creditors’ Committee”).  The Debtors are filing their consolidated monthly operating report (the “MOR”) solely for purposes ofcomplying with the monthly operating requirements applicable in the Debtors’ chapter 11 cases. The MOR is in aformat acceptable to the U.S. Trustee. The MOR should not be relied upon by any persons for information relatingto current or future financial conditions, events, or performance of any of the Debtors or their affiliates.  These following notes and statements and limitations should be referred to, and referenced in connectionwith, any review of the MOR.  1. Basis of Presentation. For financial reporting purposes, the Debtors generally prepare consolidated  financial statements, which include information for Aéropostale, Inc. and its Debtor affiliates. Thefinancial statements and information contained herein are unaudited and preliminary. The Debtors aremaintaining their books and records in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles(“GAAP”) and the information furnished in this MOR uses the companies’ normal accrual method ofaccounting. In preparing the MOR, the Debtors relied on financial data derived from their books andrecords that was available at the time of preparation. Subsequent information or discovery may result inmaterial changes to the MOR and errors or omissions may exist. Notwithstanding any such discovery,new information, or errors or omissions, the Debtors do not undertake any obligation or commitment toupdate the MOR.  2. Reporting Period. Unless otherwise noted herein, the MOR generally reflects the Debtors’ books and  records and financial activity occurring during the applicable reporting period. Except as otherwise noted,no adjustments have been made for activity occurring after the close of the reporting period.  3. Consolidated Entity Accounts Payable and Disbursement Systems. As described in the Cash  Management Motion,2 the Debtors utilize an integrated, centralized cash management system, in theordinary course of business, to collect, concentrate, and disburse funds generated by their operations (the“Cash Management System”). The Debtors maintain a consolidated accounts payable and disbursementssystem to pay operating and administrative expenses through various disbursement accounts. In theordinary course of business, the Debtors maintain business relationships among each other, which result in  intercompany receivables and payables  (the  “Intercompany Claims”) arising from intercompany  transactions  (the  “Intercompany Transactions”). As set forth more fully in the Debtors’ Cash  Management Motion, the primary Intercompany Transactions giving rise to Intercompany Claims are cash  1 The Debtors in these chapter 11 cases and the last four digits of each Debtor’s federal tax identification number, as applicable, are as follows:Aéropostale, Inc.

Instead, the Debtorstrack all Intercompany Transactions in their accounting system, which concurrently are recorded on theapplicable Debtors’ balance sheets. The Debtors have attempted to identify disbursements on an individualDebtor basis. However, because the Debtors generally track and report their financial information on aconsolidated basis some errors may exist and adjustments in future reporting may be necessary.  4. Accuracy.
