Forward Looking Statements
To take advantage of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, you are hereby cautioned that
this release contains forward-looking statements, including descriptions
of the Company's process to find a permanent Chief Financial Officer,
that are based upon the Company's current intent, estimates,
expectations and projections and involve a number of risks and
uncertainties.  Various factors exist which may cause results to differ
from these expectations.  These risks and uncertainties include, but are
not limited to, the risk factors that are discussed from time to time in
the Company's SEC reports, including, but not limited to, the annual
report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2006.  In
addition to the potential effect of these ongoing factors, the Company's

Company is unable to comply with the revised financial covenants
contained in its senior credit facility; (iii) the Company's operational
improvement initiatives and planned reductions in salaried and
administrative office staff fail to generate anticipated cost reductions;
(iv) the availability of new movie releases priced for sale negatively
impacts the consumers' desire to rent movies; (v) unforeseen issues with
the continued integration of the Hollywood Entertainment business; (vi)
the Company's actual expenses or liquidity requirements differ from
estimates and expectations; (vii) consumer demand for movies and games is
less than expected; (viii) the availability of movies and games is less
than expected; or (ix) competitive pressures are greater than anticipated.
The Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking
statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or
otherwise.
