CASE NO. 99-529 (MFW) THROUGH 99-536 (MFW)
EXPLANATION TO MONTHLY OPERATING REPORT
The Debtors and the United States Trustee have agreed to the following
modifications to the Debtors' Monthly Operating Report:
STATEMENT OF CASH RECEIPTS AND DISBURSEMENTS:
The Debtor utilizes numerous bank accounts for its store deposits and uses a
centralized cash management account for the majority of its disbursements. To
provide the detail of each of these accounts and all of the disbursements would
cause an undue burden on the Debtor and generate a voluminous amount of paper to
be distributed on a monthly basis. In lieu of submitting the Statement of Cash
Receipts and Disbursements, the Debtor is submitting a rollforward of its major
bank accounts that would include the amounts received through all of its bank
accounts. In lieu of providing the detail of all disbursements for a month, the
Debtor is submitting a Summary of Cash Disbursements by Category.
STATEMENT OF AGED RECEIVABLES
This Statement will not be submitted, as the Debtor does not generate a
significant amount of receivables through its operations. The Debtor's sales
occur primarily through cash and credit card transactions and as such this
statement is not applicable to its business and would not provide relevant
information to the users of the Monthly Report.
STATEMENT OF AGED PAYABLES
This statement requires the Debtor to provide detail on all accounts payable
over 30 days past due. This requirement would cause an undue burden on the
Debtor. The Debtor is unable to generate a detailed report for items only over
30 days past due and to generate a report for all of its accounts payable would
result in a voluminous amount of paper to be generated and distributed on a
monthly basis. In lieu of providing this level of detail for this Statement, the
Debtor is submitting a summary of its monthly accounts payable aging.
STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS, TAXES, INSURANCE AND PERSONNEL AND STATEMENT OF TAX
RECEIPTS
These two reporting requirements are combined into a rollforward of tax
accounts.
OTHER
The Debtor maintains its books and records on a fiscal month basis and is
reporting on that basis rather than on a calendar month basis.

CASE NO. 99-529 (MFW) THROUGH 99-536 (MFW)
EXPLANATION TO MONTHLY OPERATING REPORT
Through the Debtor's ordinary course of business, it prepares its financial
reporting on a consolidated basis which includes debtor and non-debtor
affiliates. As the Debtor's case is being jointly administered with its
subsidiaries (as identified below), it is filing one consolidated Monthly Report
for the jointly administered cases:
Edison Brothers Apparel Stores, Inc. (Case No. 99-530 (MFW))
Edison Paymaster, Inc. (Case No. 99-531 (MFW))
Edbro Missouri Realty Co. Inc. (Case No. 99-532 (MFW))
