GUARANTOR AND NON-GUARANTOR SUBSIDIARIES

19. GUARANTOR AND NON-GUARANTOR SUBSIDIARIES

        Certain debt obligations of the Company, which constitute debt obligations of the Issuer, are guaranteed by the Parent and by each of its subsidiaries, other than the Issuer, that is an Obligor under the Company's Second Amended Revolving Credit Facility. Separate financial statements of the Parent, the Issuer and such subsidiary guarantors are not presented because the guarantees by the Parent and each wholly owned subsidiary guarantor are joint and several, full and unconditional, except for certain customary limitations which are applicable only to a subsidiary guarantor. These customary limitations include releases of a guarantee (1) if the subsidiary guarantor no longer guarantees other indebtedness of the Issuer; (2) if there is a sale or other disposition of the capital stock of a subsidiary guarantor and if such sale complies with the covenant regarding asset sales; and (3) if the subsidiary guarantor is properly designated as an "unrestricted subsidiary."

        The condensed consolidating financial information for the Parent, the Issuer and the guarantor and non-guarantor subsidiaries as of February 2, 2013 and January 28, 2012 and for 2012, 2011 and 2010 as presented below has been prepared from the books and records maintained by the Parent, the Issuer and the guarantor and non-guarantor subsidiaries. The condensed financial information may not necessarily be indicative of the results of operations or financial position had the guarantor and non-guarantor subsidiaries operated as independent entities. Certain intercompany revenues and expenses included in the subsidiary records are eliminated in consolidation. As a result of this activity, an amount due to/due from affiliates will exist at any time.

        On December 31, 2012, The Elder-Beerman Stores Corp. (a guarantor subsidiary) was merged with and into the Issuer, with the Issuer as the surviving corporation. Subsequently, the Issuer contributed three stores to Carson Pirie Scott II, Inc. (a guarantor subsidiary), which then contributed those same stores to McRIL, LLC (a guarantor subsidiary). For comparative purposes, the condensed consolidating financial information as presented below has been retrospectively adjusted as if the activity described above occurred at the beginning of each period presented.
