Change in Pension Value and Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Earnings (Column H)
 
The change in pension amounts reported for fiscal 2009 are comprised of changes between August 3, 2008 and August 2, 2009 in the actuarial present value of the accumulated pension benefits for each of the NEOs. The NEOs receive pension benefits under the same formula applied to all U.S. salaried employees, except for benefits accrued under the Mid-Career Hire Pension Plan. The assumptions used by the Company in calculating the change in pension value are described beginning on page 43.
 
The values reported in this column are theoretical, as those amounts are calculated pursuant to SEC requirements and are based on assumptions used in preparing the Company’s consolidated audited financial statements for the years ended August 3, 2008 and August 2, 2009. The Company’s pension plans utilize a different method of calculating actuarial present value for the purpose of determining a lump sum payment, if any, under the plans. The change in pension value from year to year as reported in the table is subject to market volatility and may not represent the value that a NEO will actually accrue under the Company’s pension plans during any given year. The material provisions of the Company’s pension plans and deferred compensation plans are described beginning on page 41 and on pages 44 and 55.
 
The change in pension amounts for fiscal 2009 for executives was as follows: Mr. Conant: $2,926,890; Mr. Owens: $426,950; Mr. DiSilvestro: $381,569; Ms. Kaden: $887,309; Mr. McWilliams: $843,185; and Ms. Morrison: $91,230.
 
Messrs. Conant and McWilliams received above-market earnings (as this term is defined by the SEC) on their nonqualified deferred compensation accounts because part of their accounts were credited with interest at The Wall Street Journal indexed prime rate, which is adjusted on a monthly basis. In certain months during fiscal 2009 this rate exceeded 120% of the applicable federal long-term rate and this additional amount is included in column H. The additional amount for these executives was as follows: Mr. Conant: $28,503 and Mr. McWilliams: $1,996.
