benefit plans and allocations for certain centralized administration costs for treasury, real estate, accounting, auditing, tax, risk management, human resources, and benefits administration. These allocations of centralized administration costs were determined using a proportional cost allocation method on bases that the Company and Sara Lee considered to be reasonable, including relevant operating profit, fixed assets, sales, and payroll. Allocated costs are included in the “Selling, general and administrative expenses” line of the Unaudited Interim Condensed Combined and Consolidated Income Statements and the “Parent companies’ equity investment” line of the Unaudited Interim Condensed Combined and Consolidated Balance Sheets. The total amounts allocated for centralized administrative costs by Sara Lee in the thirty-nine weeks ended April 2, 2005 and April 1, 2006 were $25,660 and $27,118 respectively. These costs represent management’s reasonable allocation of the costs incurred. However, these amounts may not be representative of the costs necessary for the Company to operate as a separate stand alone company.
