Item 8.01.  Other Events.

Rite Aid Corporation is seeking to enter a new $400 million term loan due 2015 under its existing Senior Secured Credit Facility.  Proceeds from the new term loan will be used to refinance the $145 million Tranche 1 Term Loan due 2010 under Rite Aid's existing Credit Facility, repay and cancel a portion of the commitments outstanding under Rite Aid's existing Revolving Credit Facility, and for fees and other expenses.  The new term loan is part of a comprehensive plan to refinance Rite Aid's September 2010 debt maturities (including its accounts receivable securitization programs) through a combination of a new revolving credit facility, new term loans, the issuance of high yield notes, which may be secured on a first or second priority basis or unsecured, or the entry into a new securitization program.  As part of the entry of the new term loan, Rite Aid is seeking certain amendments to its existing Senior Secured Credit Facility in order to be able to consummate its refinancing plans.  Once Rite Aid obtains the amendments, Rite Aid would have the flexibility to pursue all or any part of its refinancing plans at any time and from time to time, subject to market and other customary conditions.  There can be no assurance that Rite Aid will consummate any or all of its refinancing plans, or the timing or terms of any such transactions.
