Explanation of Responses:
* The reporting person possesses voting and investment control over all
securities of Wherehouse Entertainment, Inc. ("WEI") owned by Cerberus,
International, Ultra and The Funds. The reporting person's interest is
limited to the extent of his pecuniary interest, if any, in Cerberus,
International, Ultra and The Funds.
** This amendment amends the Form 4 filed by the reporting person in June,
1998 (the "June Filing"). The June Filing is a duplicate of the Form 4
filed by the reporting person on May 8, 1998, and consequently reports
twice the transactions in the securities of WEI by the reporting person
that occurred in April, 1998. Therefore, this amendment modifies the June
Filing by reporting the tranactions of the reporting person in the
securities of WEI that occurred in May, 1998.
