managing more than a majority of the face amount of the Relevant Securities. If
any Consenting Holders Termination Event occurs (and has not been waived) or

Consenting Holder to change or withdraw (or cause to be changed or withdrawn)

Termination Event, each of the Consenting Holders shall have all rights and
remedies available to it under the Indenture, other documents relating to the
Notes, applicable law, or otherwise, with respect to any default under the

section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code) by or against JFF of an amount in
excess of $1 million, in any such case without the prior approval of the
Committee;
(g) The Plan provides or is modified to provide for any terms that
are materially adverse to the terms set forth in the Term Sheet, it being
understood that any improvement in the distribution to Consenting Holders
under the Plan shall not be deemed to be materially adverse (so long as
such improvement does not impair the recovery of other Consenting Holders);
(h) After filing the Plan, JFF (i) submits a second or amended plan
of reorganization that does not incorporate all the terms and provisions of
the Term Sheet, or (ii) withdraws (or moves to withdraw) the Plan;

hereof and before the Effective Date of the Plan, any material adverse
change (other than the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases or any
consequences that derive directly from the commencement of the Chapter 11
Cases) in the condition (financial or otherwise), business, assets,
liabilities or results of operations of JFF (considered as one enterprise);
(k) The fiduciary duties of any Consenting Holder, as reasonably
determined by such holder, to any investor, holder or beneficial owner of
the Relevant Securities shall require termination of this Agreement or the
support of another financial restructuring transaction that may enhance
value, as determined by the Consenting Holder, for such investor, holder or
beneficial owner;
6
<PAGE>
(l) The Consenting Holders shall not have had an opportunity to
complete (and be satisfied, in their sole discretion, with) their
business, legal, and operational due diligence review of Feet;
provided, however, that this clause (9)(l) shall be of no force and
-------- -------
effect after November 12, 1999; and
(m) The Bankruptcy Court grants relief that is materially
inconsistent with the Term Sheet and materially adverse to the
Consenting Holder including, without limitation, a motion to vacate or
modify the automatic stay contained in section 362 of the Bankruptcy
Code.
The foregoing Consenting Holders Termination Events are intended solely for the
benefit of the Consenting Holders. This Agreement shall automatically terminate
(unless waived in accordance with the terms of this Section 9) three days after
the earlier to occur of (i) the receipt by Feet of notice from the holder(s) of
a majority in face amount of the Relevant Securities that a termination event
under one of the Consenting Holders Termination Events has occurred and (ii) the

Consenting Holders Termination Event. Any approval or waiver by the Consenting
Holders shall be in writing. The waiver by the Consenting Holders of any

In addition, Feet shall have the right to terminate (a "JFF
---
Termination Event") this Agreement, by the giving of written notice thereof to
- -----------------
each of the Consenting Holders, if this Agreement is materially breached by the

Upon the occurrence of any Consenting Holders Termination Event,
unless such Consenting Holders Termination Event is waived in accordance with
the terms hereof, or upon Feet's declaration of the occurrence of a JFF
Termination Event, this Agreement shall terminate and, except as set forth in
section 20 hereof, no party hereto shall have any continuing liability or
obligation to any other party hereunder; provided, that, no such termination
-------- ----
shall relieve any party from liability for its breach or non-performance of its
obligations hereunder prior to the date of such termination.

entitled to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief as a

arising under or with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated
hereby or any act or failure to act taken in contemplation, furtherance or
connection herewith, except if such claim or liability is determined by a

breach of its obligations hereunder or fraudulent or willful misconduct or gross
negligence on the part of such Consenting Holder or the applicable indemnified
person.

--------
accordance with section 3 hereof or the termination of the Consenting Holders'

EXHIBIT 99.1
JUST FOR FEET, INC. ANNOUNCES AGREEMENT WITH NOTEHOLDERS'
COMMITTEE AND OTHER MATTERS
BIRMINGHAM, ALABAMA, NOVEMBER 2, 1999, JUST FOR FEET, INC. (NASDAQ: FEET)
announced today that it has reached an agreement (the "Agreement") with an Ad
Hoc Committee representing the holders of a substantial majority of the
principal amount (the "Noteholders") of its $200 million 11% Senior Subordinated
Notes due 2009 (the "Notes"), with respect to a consensual restructuring of the
Company's debt and equity. In accordance with the terms of the Agreement, the
Company and its subsidiaries will file a petition for relief under Chapter 11 of
the Bankruptcy Code (the "Chapter 11 Case") in order to effect a pre-negotiated
plan of reorganization that implements the consensual restructuring.
Under the Agreement, the Noteholders have agreed to support the payment of trade
claims in the ordinary course of Just for Feet's business for those trade
creditors that continue to support the Company and as such those trade creditors
will not be impaired or negatively impacted by the contemplated restructuring.
Upon the effectiveness of a proposed reorganization plan, the holders of the
Notes and certain unsecured creditors will receive 100% of the reorganized
Company's common stock ("New Common Stock") issued and outstanding on that date
subject to dilution for warrants and options to be issued under the
reorganization plan. As an incentive, the Company's management team will
receive a limited number of options to purchase New Common Stock of the
reorganized Company. The Company's currently outstanding common stock will be
extinguished and, subject to numerous conditions, including, approval by the
Bankruptcy Court in the Chapter 11 Case, current stockholders will receive a pro
rata distribution of warrants to purchase up to 10% of New Common Stock. The
warrants will be priced at a substantial premium to the fair market value of the
New Common Stock and will only provide value to current stockholders if the New
Common Stock appreciates to an amount sufficient to fully satisfy allowed
unsecured claims including the Notes.
In addition, the Company announced that it did not make the interest payment due
November 1, 1999 under the Notes. The Agreement provides that the Noteholders
will refrain from taking certain actions to enforce the Notes or the obligations
of Just For Feet under the indenture due to Just For Feet's failure to make the
November 1, 1999 interest payment. The Agreement will be filed by the Company
as an exhibit to a Form 8-K.
"The conversion of $200 million of Notes to equity under the contemplated
restructuring substantially improves the Company's financial condition as it
will reduce the Company's overall indebtedness by approximately 50% and will
allow the Company to aggressively pursue its operational turnaround", commented
Helen M. Rockey, Chief Executive Officer of Just For Feet. "I am pleased that a
cornerstone of the Agreement with the Ad Hoc Committee provides that our trade
vendors, who are our partners, will continue to be paid in the ordinary course
of business."
The Agreement and the proposed reorganization plan are subject to numerous
conditions, including that the plan be confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court. There
is no assurance that the plan will be successfully implemented, or that there
will not be modifications to the terms of the Agreement.
