margin-top: 6pt">The Company uses a discounted cash flow model to value its Level 3 investments. For July 31, 2010, the assumptions in the Company’s model included different recovery periods, ranging from 11 months to 11 years, depending on the type of security and varying discount factors for yield, ranging from 0.1% to 4.4%, and illiquidity, ranging from 0.3% to 4.0%. For August 1, 2009, the assumptions in the Company’s model included different recovery periods, ranging from 12 months to 11 years, depending on the type of security and varying discount factors for yield, ranging from 0.4% to 11.1%, and illiquidity, ranging from 0.3% to 1.0%. These assumptions are subjective. They are based on the Company’s current judgment and its view of current market conditions. The use of different assumptions would result in a different valuation and related charge. </div> <div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As a result of the discounted cash flow analysis, for the 26 weeks ended July 31, 2010, the Company recognized a net impairment of $0.6 million ($0.4 million, net of tax), which increased the total cumulative impairment recognized in OCI as of July 31, 2010 to $10.9 million ($6.8 million, net of tax) from $10.3 million ($6.4 million, net of tax) at the end of Fiscal 2009. The increase in temporary impairment was primarily driven by unfavorable changes in the discount rate. These amounts were recorded in OCI and resulted in a decrease in the investments’ estimated fair values. As a result of a credit rating downgrade on a student-loan backed ARS, the Company also recorded a net impairment loss in earnings of $1.2 million during the 13 weeks ended July 31, 2010.

However, if certain triggering events occur, or if an annual impairment test is required and the Company is required to evaluate the non-financial instrument for impairment, a resulting asset impairment would require that the non-financial asset be recorded at the estimated fair value. As a result of the Company’s annual goodwill impairment test performed as of January 30, 2010, the Company concluded that its goodwill was not impaired. During the 13 and 26 weeks ended July 31, 2010, there were no triggering events that prompted an asset impairment test of the Company’s goodwill. </div> <div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Certain long-lived assets were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis using Level 3 inputs as defined in ASC 820. Based on the decision to close all M+O stores in Fiscal 2010, the Company determined that the M+O stores not previously impaired would not be able to generate sufficient cash flow over the life of the related leases to recover the Company’s initial investment in them. Therefore, during the 26 weeks ended July 31, 2010, the M+O stores not previously impaired were written down to their fair value, resulting in a loss on impairment of assets of $18.0 million. The loss on impairment of assets was recorded within Loss from Discontinued Operations for the 26 weeks ended July 31, 2010. The fair value of those stores was determined by estimating the amount and timing of net future cash flows and discounting them using a risk-adjusted rate of interest. The Company estimates future cash flows based on its experience and knowledge of the market in which the store is located. </div> <div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">For the M+O store closures where a lease obligation still exists, the Company recorded a liability associated with the rental obligation on the cease use date (when the store was closed) in accordance with ASC 420, <i>Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities </i>(“ASC 420”), using Level 3 inputs to measure fair value on a nonrecurring basis. The liability under ASC 420 includes the present value of the obligations due under leases for which no signed termination agreement exists, less estimated sublease income. Assumptions in calculating the liability include the original lease terms and estimates related to the sublease potential of closed locations. If actual timing and potential termination costs or realization of sublease income differ from the Company’s estimates, the resulting liabilities could vary materially from recorded amounts. </div> <div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Refer to Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding the discontinued operations for M+O. </div>   </div>  <div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif"> </div>  <!-- Begin Block Tagged Note false false false us-types:textBlockItemType textblock This element represents the disclosure related to the fair value measurement of assets and liabilities which includes [financial] instruments measured at fair value that are classified in stockholders' equity.
