VP MERCHANDISING Employee Stock Option (right to buy) 4.01 2009-05-26 4 A 0 96747 4.01 A 2010-05-26 2019-05-26 Common stock 96747 96747 D In a Form 4 filed on May 28, 2009, the reporting person reported that she was granted an employee stock option covering 89,138 shares of common stock, having an exercise price of $4.01 a share, and vesting in three equal installments beginning on May 26, 2010, 2011 and 2012. It was recently determined that the number of shares of common stock covered by the award was calculated incorrectly given the approved value of the award and resulted in an understatement of the number of shares of common stock covered by the award. Accordingly, this amended Form 4 is being filed to reflect the correct number of shares covered by the grant. Joan Roensch, Attorney-in-Fact for Rebecca Philbert 2010-05-27
