Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
 

On July 11, 2006, the Compensation and Management Development Committee of the Board of Directors of Federated Department Stores, Inc. (the "Company") approved special awards of restricted stock and stock options to certain executives of the Company using the Company's standard forms of award agreements.  The purpose of the time-based awards is to provide a retention and performance incentive to the four executives who are responsible for the operations, merchandising, stores and finance integration of The May Department Stores Company into the Company. The grants were made under the Company's 1995 Executive Equity Incentive Plan (the "Plan").

Pursuant to the approval, the Company granted 50,000 restricted shares and 150,000 stock options to Thomas L. Cole; 50,000 restricted shares and 150,000 stock options to Janet E. Grove; 50,000 restricted shares and 200,000 stock options to Susan D. Kronick; and 42,000 restricted shares and 125,000 stock options to Karen M. Hoguet.

The stock options have a term of ten years and an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Company's common shares on the date of the award.  Fair market value is defined under the Plan as the closing price of the Company's common shares on the trading day immediately preceding the date of the grant. Both the restricted shares and the stock options vest on the third anniversary of the date of grant.
