The Company does not have long-term purchase commitments or arrangements with any of its suppliers or agents. During the twenty-six weeks ended August 3, 2013 and July 28, 2012, one of our suppliers accounted for approximately 22%, and 21% of our purchases, respectively. No other vendor supplied greater than 10% of the Company's merchandise purchases for the twenty-six weeks ended August 3, 2013 or July 28, 2012.

Although the Company has strong relationships with its vendors, there can be no assurance that the relationships can be maintained in the future or that its vendors will continue to supply merchandise to the Company. If there should be any significant disruption in the supply of merchandise from its vendors, management believes that production could be shifted to other suppliers so as to continue to secure the required volume of product. Nevertheless, it is possible that any significant disruption in supply could have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
