Forward Looking Statements

This presentation contains forward-looking statements that are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections about Burlington Stores, Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiaries including, without limitation, Burlington Coat Factory Warehouse Corporation and its operating subsidiaries (“Burlington” or the “Company”), the industry in which we operate and other matters, as well as Burlington management’s beliefs and assumptions and other statements regarding matters that are not historical facts. For example, when Burlington uses words such as “aim,” “project,” “projection,” “expect,” “forecast,” “outlook,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “seek,” “estimate,” “should,” “would,” “could,” “will,” “can,” “can have,” “likely,” “opportunity,” “potential” or “may,” and the negatives thereof and variations of such words or other words that convey uncertainty of future events or outcomes, Burlington is making forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Burlington’s forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties.  Such statements include, but are not limited to, proposed store openings and closings, proposed capital expenditures, projected financing requirements, proposed developmental projects, projected sales, earnings, revenues, costs, expenditures, cash flows, growth rates and financial results, our plans and objectives for future operations, growth or initiatives, our strategies, Burlington’s ability to maintain selling margins, and the effect of the adoption of any new accounting pronouncements on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows, and the expected outcome or impact of pending or threatened litigation.  Actual events or results may differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of factors. While it is impossible to identify all such factors, factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those estimated by Burlington include: competition in the retail industry, competitive factors such as pricing and promotional activities of major competitors, seasonality of Burlington’s business, adverse weather conditions, changes in consumer preferences and consumer spending patterns, import risks, inflation, general economic conditions, unforeseen computer related problems, unforeseen material loss or casualty, regulatory changes, our relationship with our employees, the impact of current and future law, terroristic attacks, natural and man-made disasters, Burlington’s ability to implement its strategy, its substantial level of indebtedness and related debt-service obligations, restrictions imposed by covenants in its debt agreements, availability of adequate financing, its dependence on vendors for its merchandise, events affecting the delivery of merchandise to its stores, existence of adverse litigation, availability of desirable locations on suitable terms, and other risks discussed from time to time in the filings of Burlington and Burlington Coat Factory Investments Holdings, Inc. with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Many of these factors are beyond Burlington’s ability to predict or control. In addition, as a result of these and other factors, Burlington’s past financial performance should not be relied on as an indication of future performance. The cautionary statements referred to in this section also should be considered in connection with any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements that may be issued by Burlington or persons acting on its behalf. Burlington undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. In light of these risks and uncertainties, the forward-looking events and circumstances discussed in this presentation might not occur. Furthermore, Burlington cannot guarantee future results, events, levels of activity, performance or achievements.
