      Current Report on Form 8-K contains &#8220;forward-looking statements&#8221; within the
      meaning of the federal securities laws, which involve risks and uncertainties.
      Forward-looking statements include all statements that do not relate solely
      to
      historical or current facts, and you can identify forward-looking statements
      because they contain words such as &#8220;believes,&#8221; &#8220;expects,&#8221; &#8220;may,&#8221; &#8220;will,&#8221;
&#8220;should,&#8221; &#8220;seeks,&#8221; &#8220;approximately,&#8221; &#8220;intends,&#8221; &#8220;plans,&#8221; &#8220;estimates,&#8221; &#8220;projects&#8221;
or &#8220;anticipates&#8221; or similar expressions that concern our strategy, plans or
      intentions. All statements made relating to the closing of the merger described
      in this Current Report or to our estimated and projected earnings, margins,
      costs, expenditures, cash flows, growth rates and financial results are
      forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to
      risks and uncertainties that may change at any time, and, therefore, our actual
      results may differ materially from those that we expected. We derive many of
      our
      forward-looking statements from operating budgets and forecasts, which are
      based
      upon many detailed assumptions. While we believe that these assumptions are
      reasonable, we caution that it is very difficult to predict the impact of known
      factors, and, of course, it is impossible for us to anticipate all factors
      that
      could affect our actual results. </font></div>

      assets we have acquired and liabilities we have assumed and the related

      Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet," to the assets acquired and
      liabilities assumed based on preliminary estimates of their fair values. A
      final
      determination of these fair values will reflect our consideration of a final
      valuation prepared by third-party appraisers. This final valuation will be
      based
      on the actual net tangible and intangible assets that existed as of the closing
      date of the Transactions. Any final adjustment will change the allocations
      of
      purchase price, which could affect the fair value assigned to the assets and

      lives of tangible assets are described in (b)(4) under Notes to Unaudited Pro
      Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Identifiable intangible assets
      with
      a determinable life have been amortized on a straight-line basis in the
      unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations. These unaudited
      pro
      forma condensed consolidated financial statements reflect a preliminary
      allocation to tangible assets, liabilities, goodwill and other intangible
      assets. The final purchase price allocation may result in a different allocation
      for tangible and intangible assets than that presented in these unaudited pro
      forma condensed consolidated financial statements. An increase or decrease
      in
      the amount of purchase price allocated to amortizable assets would impact the
      amount of annual depreciation and amortization expense. This adjustment also
      includes investment banking fees related to the Transactions of
      $5.0&#160;million that we expensed in the first quarter of 2007 and annual
      management fees of $5.0&#160;million that will be payable to affiliates of

      is

      adjustments can generally be described as (i)&#160;certain non-recurring

      (iii)&#160;transaction fees. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not presentations
      made in accordance with GAAP, are not measures of financial performance or
      condition, liquidity or profitability, and should not be considered as an
      alternative to (1)&#160;net income, operating income or any other performance
      measures determined in accordance with GAAP or (2)&#160;operating cash flows
      determined in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
      are
      not intended to be measures of free cash flow for management's discretionary
      use, as they do not consider certain cash requirements such as interest
      payments, tax payments and debt service requirements.</font></div>

      presentation of EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should

      is appropriate to provide additional information to investors about the
      calculation of certain financial ratios in the indentures governing the notes
      and our New Credit Facilities. Adjusted EBITDA is a material component of these
      ratios. For instance, both the indentures governing the notes and our New Credit
      Facilities contain debt incurrence ratios that are calculated by reference
      to
      Adjusted EBITDA. Non-compliance with the debt incurrence ratios contained in
      our
      New Credit Facilities and the indentures governing the notes would prohibit
      us
      from being able to incur additional indebtedness other than pursuant to
      specified exceptions.</font></div>

      management believes that these measures provide useful information to investors,

REGULATION
      FD DISCLOSURE.
Unless
      the context otherwise requires, references to "Dollar General," "we," "our,"
      "us" and "the Company" refer to Dollar General Corporation and its consolidated
      subsidiaries, both before and after the Transactions, and the Merger (as defined
      below).  Financial information identified as "pro forma" gives effect to
      the consummation of the Transactions (as defined below). References to years
      2007, 2006, 2005, 2004, 2003 and 2002 represent fiscal years ending or ended
      February 1, 2008, February 2, 2007, February 3, 2006,
      January 28, 2005, January 30, 2004 and January 31, 2003,
      respectively, unless the context otherwise requires. Buck Acquisition
      Corp., to which the Company will succeed in the Merger, has commenced an
      offering to sell $1,900 million of notes, including $625 million of Senior
      Notes, due 2015, (the "cash-pay notes"), $725 million of Senior Toggle Notes,
      due 2015 (the "senior toggle notes") and $550 million of Senior Subordinated
      Notes (the "senior subordinated notes"). Collectively these are referred to
      herein as "the notes."
Cautionary
      Statement Regarding "Forward Looking" Statements
This
      Current Report on Form 8-K contains "forward-looking statements" within the
      meaning of the federal securities laws, which involve risks and uncertainties.
      Forward-looking statements include all statements that do not relate solely
      to
      historical or current facts, and you can identify forward-looking statements
      because they contain words such as "believes," "expects," "may," "will,"
"should," "seeks," "approximately," "intends," "plans," "estimates," "projects"
or "anticipates" or similar expressions that concern our strategy, plans or
      intentions. All statements made relating to the closing of the merger described
      in this Current Report or to our estimated and projected earnings, margins,
      costs, expenditures, cash flows, growth rates and financial results are
      forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to
      risks and uncertainties that may change at any time, and, therefore, our actual
      results may differ materially from those that we expected. We derive many of
      our
      forward-looking statements from operating budgets and forecasts, which are
      based
      upon many detailed assumptions. While we believe that these assumptions are
      reasonable, we caution that it is very difficult to predict the impact of known
      factors, and, of course, it is impossible for us to anticipate all factors
      that
      could affect our actual results.
Some
      of
      the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially
      from
      our expectations are more fully disclosed below in this Current Report, as
      well
      as in Dollar General's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent
      Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking
      statements attributable to us, or persons acting on our behalf, are expressly
      qualified in their entirety by these and other cautionary statements. We assume
      no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement as
      a
      result of new information, future events or otherwise required by law.
As
      provided in General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information contained
      in
      this Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K shall not be deemed to be
      "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
      as amended, nor shall it be deemed to be incorporated by reference in any filing
      under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly
      set
      forth by specific reference in such a filing. By furnishing this information,
we
        make
        no admission as to the materiality of any information in this report that
        is
        being disclosed solely pursuant to Regulation FD.
The
      Company hereby furnishes the following information regarding its business that
      was prepared in connection with the financing activities related to the Merger
      and the Transactions (as those terms are hereafter defined):
The
      Transactions
On
      March 11, 2007, Buck Holdings, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership
      ("Parent") and Buck Acquisition Corp., a Tennessee corporation ("Merger Sub"),
      a
      wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, entered into an agreement and plan of merger
      (the "Merger Agreement") with us pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with
      and into us (the "Merger"). Following the consummation of the Merger, we will
      continue as the surviving corporation and as a subsidiary of Parent. Parent
      is
      managed by its general partner, Buck Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability
      company, which is currently controlled by private investment funds affiliated
      with Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P. ("KKR" or the "Sponsor"). As a
      result of the Merger, funds associated with or designated by the Sponsor will
      directly or indirectly control Dollar General Corporation through their
      investment in Parent and its general partner, Buck Holdings, LLC.
Certain
      senior employees will be offered the opportunity prior to closing of the Merger
      to rollover their equity and/or options and to purchase additional equity of
      Dollar General in connection with the Merger. Such employees who elect to
      participate in this opportunity are referred to herein as the "Senior Management
      Participants." In connection with such investment and the Merger, we will adopt
      a new option plan pursuant to which these individuals will be granted new
      options with respect to additional shares of common stock of Dollar General.
      In
      addition, following the Merger, we expect to offer other employees a similar
      opportunity to participate in our common equity. Such employees who elect to
      participate in such opportunity, along with the Senior Management Participants,
      are referred to in herein as "Management Participants."
The
      acquisition of Dollar General by the Investors will be financed by borrowings
      under our new senior secured credit facilities, the issuance of the notes and
      the equity investment described herein and cash on hand. The offering of the
      notes, the initial borrowings under our new senior secured credit facilities,
      the equity investment by the Investors in Parent, the equity investment in
      Dollar General by the Management Participants, the Merger, the Tender Offer,
      the
      replacement of certain letters of credit, the payment of related fees and
      expenses and other related transactions are collectively referred to in this
      document as the "Transactions."

SOURCES
      AND USES OF FUNDS
The
      following table illustrates the estimated sources and uses of funds for the
      Transactions as if the closing had occurred on May 4, 2007. Actual amounts
      will vary from estimated amounts depending on several factors, including
final
      determination of the aggregate value of the equity participation by management
      participants,
differences
      between the balances of our outstanding indebtedness that we are repaying as
      of
      May 4, 2007 and balances at the closing of the Transactions, differences
      from our estimate of Transaction fees, expenses and other costs, differences
      between our available cash at May 4, 2007 and at the closing of the
      Transactions and any changes made to the sources of the contemplated debt
      financing.

      Information" and the related notes thereto.

Upon
      the closing of the
      Merger, we will enter into a $1.0 billion senior secured asset-based
      revolving credit facility with a six-year maturity, of which a portion will
      be
      available for letters of credit subject to borrowing base limitations. As of
      May 4, 2007, on a pro forma basis giving effect to the Transactions, we
      would have had $302.3 million in borrowings outstanding under our new
      senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility.
In
      connection with the Merger, we also intend to replace $23.8 million of
      letters of credit under our existing credit facility with letters of credit
      under our new senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility. In addition,
      our availability under the new senior secured asset-based revolving credit
      facility will be reduced by $128.1 million of existing trade letters of
      credit and $14.5 million of existing letters of credit required under the
      terms of our tax increment financing relating to our Marion, Indiana DC, which
      we expect to issue under our new senior secured asset-based revolving credit
      facility in connection with the Transactions.
(2)
Upon
      the closing of the
      Merger, we will enter into a new $2.430 billion senior secured term loan
      facility with a seven-year maturity, the full amount of which is expected to
      be
      borrowed on the closing date.
3
(3)
Consists
      of certain
      financing and capital lease obligations and other debt instruments.
(4)
Represents
      the cash
      equity investment of approximately $2.767 billion to be made in Parent and
      Parent's general partner by the Investors.
(5)
Represents
      approximately
      $8.0 million expected to be invested directly in Dollar General by the
      Senior Management Participants, either in the form of a rollover of their
      existing equity interests in Dollar General to equity interests in Dollar
      General following the Merger or through cash investments in Dollar General.
      To
      the extent that the amount invested in Dollar General by the Senior Management
      Participants is greater or less than $8.0 million, the amount of the cash
      equity to be contributed to Parent by the Investors will be adjusted by a
      corresponding amount. In addition, following the Merger we will offer other
      employees a similar opportunity to participate in our common
      equity.
(6)
We
      intend to renegotiate
      or refinance the leases relating to certain of our DCs in connection with or
      immediately following consummation of the Transactions and have received
      financial commitments to cover a portion of the potential costs of refinancing.
      However, a possibility exists that the Merger and certain of the related
      financing transactions may be interpreted as giving rise to certain trigger
      events (which may include events of default) under such leases. In such event,
      our cost of refinancing or renegotiating such obligations could exceed the
      amount of such commitments, resulting in a negative effect on our cash balances.
      The impact of this potential cost of refinancing these obligations has been
      included in the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance
      Sheet.
(7)
We
      intend to repurchase
      $200.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the Old Notes at the
      closing of the Tender Offer substantially concurrently with the closing of
      the
      Merger. Any Old Notes not repurchased pursuant to the Tender Offer will remain
      outstanding. Includes expenses and a premium (a portion of which includes a
      consent payment) of $19.6 million.
(8)
Reflects
      our estimate of
      fees, expenses and other costs associated with the Transactions. Such fees
      and
      expenses include placement and other financing fees, advisory fees, transaction
      fees paid to affiliates of the Sponsor, and other transaction costs and
      professional fees.

UNAUDITED
      PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The
      following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have
      been developed by applying pro forma adjustments to the historical audited
      and
      unaudited consolidated financial statements of Dollar General Corporation.
      The
      unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the
      year
      ended February 2, 2007, the thirteen weeks ended May 5, 2006, the
      thirteen weeks ended May 4, 2007 and the trailing fifty-two week period
      ended May 4, 2007 give effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred
      on February 4, 2006. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance
      sheet gives effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred on May 4,
      2007. Assumptions underlying the pro forma adjustments are described in the
      accompanying notes, which should be read in conjunction with these unaudited
      pro
      forma condensed consolidated financial statements.
The
      unaudited pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and certain
      assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. The
      unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information is presented
      for informational purposes only. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated
      financial information does not purport to represent what our results of
      operations or financial condition would have been had the Transactions actually
      occurred on the dates indicated, and they do not purport to project our results
      of operations or financial condition for any future period or as of any future
      date. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements should
      be read in conjunction with the other information contained herein as well
      as
      "Selected Historical Consolidated Financial and Other Data," "Management's
      Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition" and
      the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto appearing in
      our
      Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 2, 2007 and our Quarterly
      Report on Form 10-Q for the thirteen weeks ended May 4, 2007. All pro forma
      adjustments and their underlying assumptions are described more fully in the
      notes to our unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial
      statements.
The
      Merger will be accounted for using purchase accounting. The pro forma
      information presented, including allocations of purchase price, is based on
      preliminary estimates of the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities
      assumed, available information and assumptions and will be revised as additional
      information becomes available. The actual adjustments to our consolidated
      financial statements upon the closing of the Transactions will depend on a
      number of factors, including additional information available and our net assets
      on the closing date of the Transactions. Therefore, the actual adjustments
      will
      differ from the pro forma adjustments, and the differences may be
      material.
The
      final
      purchase price allocation is dependent on, among other things, the finalization
      of asset and liability valuations. As of the date of this document, we have
      not
      completed the valuation studies necessary to estimate the fair values of the
      assets we have acquired and liabilities we have assumed and the related
      allocation of purchase price. We have allocated the total estimated purchase
      price, calculated as described in Note (b) under "—Notes to Unaudited Pro
      Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet," to the assets acquired and
      liabilities assumed based on preliminary estimates of their fair values. A
      final
      determination of these fair values will reflect our consideration of a final
      valuation prepared by third-party appraisers. This final valuation will be
      based
      on the actual net tangible and intangible assets that existed as of the closing
      date of the Transactions. Any final adjustment will change the allocations
      of
      purchase price, which could affect the fair value assigned to the assets and
      liabilities and could result in a change to the unaudited pro forma condensed
      consolidated financial statements, including a change to goodwill.

(1)
Upon
      the closing of the
      Merger, we will enter into a new asset-based revolving credit facility which
      provides for borrowing up to $1,000.0 million, subject to availability, of
      which $302.3 million is assumed to be outstanding upon the closing of the
      Transactions. Such levels of borrowings will fluctuate in future periods
      dependent upon short term cash needs. Changes in the levels of borrowings would
      impact interest expense.
(2)
Upon
      the closing of the
      Merger, we will enter into a $2,430.0 million senior secured term loan
      facility, with a seven-year maturity.
(3)
Represents
      existing
      financing and capital lease obligations and other indebtedness.
(4)
Represents
      approximately
      $2.767 billion to be invested in equity securities of Parent by the
      Investors.
(5)
Represents
      approximately
      $8.0 million to be invested directly in Dollar General by the Senior
      Management Participants either in the form of a rollover of their existing
      equity interests in Dollar General to equity interests in Dollar General
      following the Merger or through cash investments in Dollar General. To the
      extent that the amount invested in Dollar General by the Senior Management
      Participants is greater or less than $8.0 million, the amount of the cash
      equity to be contributed to Parent by the Investors will be adjusted by a
      corresponding amount.

(6)
The
      holders of
      outstanding shares of common stock will receive $22.00 in cash per share in
      connection with the Transactions. Assumes approximately 314.6 million
      shares outstanding as of May 4, 2007, plus 1.4 million shares of
      restricted stock and restricted stock units, plus payments of approximately
      $52.5 million related to outstanding stock options and excludes
      $8.0 million of management participation and rollover equity discussed in
      Note (5).
(7)
Includes
      $199.8 million of Old Notes for which a tender offer has been commenced,
      plus a related premium and other costs of approximately $19.6 million.
      These amounts assume that all the Old Notes are repurchased in the tender offer.
      Any Old Notes that are not tendered and purchased in the tender offer will
      remain outstanding after the closing of the Transactions. As of 5:00 p.m. New
      York City time on June 15, 2007, approximately $2.0 million of Old
      Notes had not been tendered in the Tender Offer.
(8)
Consists
      of
      $165.9 million of estimated financing fees, which will be capitalized and
      amortized over the related terms of the financings; $57.8 million of
      transaction costs, which will be expensed by the Company prior to or upon
      consummation of the Merger and reflected as an adjustment in historical equity;
      and $56.3 million of direct acquisition costs including $3.0 million
      of costs to raise equity.

      including a premium and other costs of approximately $19.6 million to

      $18.8 million, and legal, accounting and advisory fees of
      $39.0 million.
(4)
These
      unaudited pro forma
      condensed consolidated financial statements reflect a preliminary allocation
      to
      tangible assets, liabilities, goodwill and other intangible assets. An appraisal
      will be performed to assist management in determining the fair value of acquired
      assets and liabilities, including identifiable intangible assets. The final
      purchase price allocation may result in a materially different allocation for
      tangible and intangible assets than that presented in these unaudited pro forma
      condensed consolidated financial statements. An increase or decrease in the
      amount of purchase price allocated to amortizable assets would impact the amount
      of annual amortization expense. For purposes of these pro forma condensed
      consolidated financial statements, preliminary fair values and useful lives
      have
      been estimated based on a preliminary valuation performed by an outside
      consultant. These estimates follow (dollars in millions):

Goodwill
      is not amortized and will be evaluated for impairment on an annual basis. The
      value related to our trade names and trademarks, which we anticipate to be
      an
      indefinite-lived asset, is based upon a preliminary valuation. The value related
      to leasehold interests is based upon a preliminary valuation and is primarily
      related to below-market rental rates for certain of our store leases. In
      addition, there may be other fair value adjustments that we have not yet
      estimated.
(5)
Preliminary
      estimates of
      the inventory valuation approximates the historical book value of inventory.
      The
      reversal of existing LIFO reserves is $4.3 million. However, at this time
      we are evaluating possible modifications of our merchandising philosophies,
      including SKU rationalization, which could result in the discontinuation and
      liquidation of certain merchandise. This could result in a reduction of the
      fair
      market value of the inventory being acquired.
(6)
Reflects
      the elimination
      of deferred financing costs of $2.8 million associated with our
      $400.0 million existing credit facility which will be terminated, and our
      Old Notes which are expected to be repurchased, in conjunction with the
      Transactions; and the elimination of our existing goodwill balance of
      $2.4 million.

(7)
For
      purposes of these pro
      forma financial statements, certain DC properties are assumed to have been
      purchased in connection with the Transactions and are included in the buildings
      and improvements amounts in (4) above, with the incremental payments in
      excess of the currently recorded lease obligations required to purchase these
      DCs reflected as an increase in other current liabilities of
      $110.1 million. This adjustment also reflects the reversal of current
      deferred rent liabilities on certain DCs and stores of $3.3 million and the
      reversal of the current portion of a deferred gain on certain DCs of
      $0.4 million.
(8)
Reflects
      the reversal of
      deferred rent liabilities on certain DCs and stores of $28.3 million; the
      reversal of a deferred gain on certain DCs of $5.4 million; the reversal of
      certain pension accruals of $3.2 million; offset by a reserve of
      $12.4 million for lease contract termination costs on approximately 93
      stores which are expected to close within 30 days after the consummation of
      the Transactions.
(9)
Reflects
      the estimated
      impact on current and deferred tax liabilities related to the
      $1,612.8 million purchase accounting adjustments as well as
      $94.5 million in current deductions related principally to expenses
      relating to the tender offer for the Old Notes and deductions related to
      employee stock awards.
(c)
Reflects
      an increase in
      income taxes receivable of $34.4 million principally due to deductions
      related to employee stock awards, which were reflected as adjustments to
      shareholders' equity, and the expenses relating to the tender offer for the
      Old
      Notes which reduced the assets acquired for purposes of the purchase price
      allocation but was not reflected as a reduction in income. The net increase
      in
      deferred tax liabilities of $591.5 million is principally related to
      purchase accounting adjustments.
(d)
Reflects
      the
      capitalization of $165.9 million of estimated financing costs that we will
      incur in connection with new debt financing, including the New Credit Facilities
      and the notes, offset by $2.8 million of unamortized deferred financing
      costs related to debt that is expected to be redeemed or canceled and
      $2.4 million of previously existing goodwill that is being
      eliminated.

NOTES
      TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED
STATEMENTS
      OF OPERATIONS
(a)
Represents
      the estimated
      impact on cost of goods sold of the assumed acquisition of the DCs discussed
      in
      (b)(7) under Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet,
      relating to the following DC expense amounts that will be capitalized into
      inventory: $3.7 million of pro forma annual depreciation expense resulting
      from the adjustment to record the fair market value of the purchased DC's offset
      by a reduction of $6.7 million in historical annual rental
      expense.
(b)
Represents
      depreciation
      and amortization of the fair value adjustments related to tangible and
      intangible long-lived assets. The fair market value adjustments and estimated
      lives of tangible assets are described in (b)(4) under Notes to Unaudited Pro
      Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Identifiable intangible assets
      with
      a determinable life have been amortized on a straight-line basis in the
      unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations. These unaudited
      pro
      forma condensed consolidated financial statements reflect a preliminary
      allocation to tangible assets, liabilities, goodwill and other intangible
      assets. The final purchase price allocation may result in a different allocation
      for tangible and intangible assets than that presented in these unaudited pro
      forma condensed consolidated financial statements. An increase or decrease
      in
      the amount of purchase price allocated to amortizable assets would impact the
      amount of annual depreciation and amortization expense. This adjustment also
      includes investment banking fees related to the Transactions of
      $5.0 million that we expensed in the first quarter of 2007 and annual
      management fees of $5.0 million that will be payable to affiliates of
      certain of the Investors subsequent to the closing of the
      Transactions.
(c)
Reflects
      pro forma
      interest expense resulting from our new capital structure (using applicable
      rates at June 14, 2007) as follows (dollars in millions):

(1)
The
      $1,000.0 million
      revolving credit facility is expected to carry an interest rate of 3-month
      LIBOR
      of 5.35% plus 1.50%. The amount drawn at closing is expected to be
      $302.3 million. Such levels of borrowings will fluctuate in future periods
      dependent upon short term cash needs. Changes in the levels of borrowings would
      impact interest expense.
(2)
Reflects
      interest on the
      $2,430.0 million term loan facility that is expected to be at a rate of
      3-month LIBOR plus 2.50%. To hedge against interest rate risk, we have entered
      into a swap agreement with respect to a $2,000.0 million notional amount
      for 4.93%. This swap agreement becomes effective on July 31, 2007 and will
      amortize on a quarterly basis until maturity at July 31, 2012. The unhedged
      portion of the facility is expected to carry an interest rate of 3-month LIBOR
      of 5.35% plus 2.50%.
(3)
Reflects
      interest on the
      senior notes and senior subordinated notes at assumed rates. Assumes the cash
      interest payment option has been elected with respect to all of the senior
      toggle notes.
(4)
Represents
      fees on
      assumed balances of trade letters of credit of $128.1 million at 0.75% and
      standby letters of credit of $41.0 million at 1.50%.
(5)
Represents
      commitment
      fees of 0.375% on the assumed $528.7 million unutilized balance of the
      revolving credit facility. Outstanding letters of credit noted in (4)above
      reduce the availability under the revolving credit facility.
(6)
Represents
      historical
      interest expense on other existing indebtedness.
(7)
Represents
      debt issuance
      costs associated with the new bank facilities amortized over 6 years for
      the revolving facility, 7 years for the term loan facility, 8 years
      for the new senior notes, 10 years for the new senior subordinated notes
      and 8 years for other capitalized debt issuance costs. Also includes
      $10.5 million of bridge debt fee expensed in the year ended
      February 2, 2007.
(8)
Represents
      historical
      interest expense on income tax contingencies, offset by capitalized interest
      expense.
Interest
      rate sensitivity
A
      0.125%
      change in the weighted average interest rate on our total pro forma indebtedness
      would change our pro forma annual cash interest expense by approximately
      $5.8 million.
These
      pro
      forma financial statements assume that all of our Old Notes will be tendered
      and
      repurchased in the tender offer. Any Old Notes that are not tendered and
      purchased in the tender offer will remain outstanding after the closing of
      the
      Transactions. For each $1.0 million of Old Notes that is not tendered and
      repurchased in the tender offer, pro forma annual interest expense will increase
      by approximately $0.1 million. As of 5:00 p.m. New York City time on
      June 15, 2007, approximately $2.0 million of Old Notes had not been
      tendered in the Tender Offer.
(d)
Represents
      the tax effect
      of the pro forma adjustments, calculated at effective rates of 39.3% and 37.6%
      for the thirteen-week periods ended May 4, 2007 and May 5, 2006,
      respectively,
16
and
      37.5%
      for the fiscal year ended February 2, 2007. Note that the pro forma
      statement of operations data for the trailing fifty-two week period ended
      May 4, 2007 includes income taxes accounted for under SFAS 109 for
      39 weeks and under FIN 48 for 13 weeks.
(e)
Adjustments
      to net income
      (loss) do not include the effects of the following non-recurring items:
      $42.1 million of stock compensation expense from the acceleration of
      unvested stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units resulting
      from the Transactions and $77.4 million of transaction costs incurred by
      the Company expensed as one-time charges upon the close of the Transactions.
      Net
      income (loss) also does not include any adjustments to reflect the effects
      of
      the new stock based compensation plan, which is still being
      finalized.
Certain
      Non-GAAP Financial Measures
EBITDA
      is
      defined as net income plus provision for income taxes, interest expense, net,
      and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA further
      adjusted to give effect to adjustments required in calculating covenant ratios
      under the indentures governing the notes and our New Credit Facilities, which
      adjustments can generally be described as (i) certain non-recurring
      non-cash items, (ii) certain unusual or infrequently occurring items, or
      (iii) transaction fees. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not presentations
      made in accordance with GAAP, are not measures of financial performance or
      condition, liquidity or profitability, and should not be considered as an
      alternative to (1) net income, operating income or any other performance
      measures determined in accordance with GAAP or (2) operating cash flows
      determined in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
      are
      not intended to be measures of free cash flow for management's discretionary
      use, as they do not consider certain cash requirements such as interest
      payments, tax payments and debt service requirements.
Our
      presentation of EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should
      not
      consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as
      reported under GAAP. We believe that the inclusion of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
      is appropriate to provide additional information to investors about the
      calculation of certain financial ratios in the indentures governing the notes
      and our New Credit Facilities. Adjusted EBITDA is a material component of these
      ratios. For instance, both the indentures governing the notes and our New Credit
      Facilities contain debt incurrence ratios that are calculated by reference
      to
      Adjusted EBITDA. Non-compliance with the debt incurrence ratios contained in
      our
      New Credit Facilities and the indentures governing the notes would prohibit
      us
      from being able to incur additional indebtedness other than pursuant to
      specified exceptions.
While
      management believes that these measures provide useful information to investors,
      the SEC may require that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA be presented differently
      or
      not at all in filings made with the SEC. Furthermore, because not all companies
      use identical calculations, these presentations of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
      may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other
      companies.
The
      following table sets forth a reconciliation of net income to EBITDA and EBITDA
      to Adjusted EBITDA for the periods indicated:

(a)
Amounts
      relate to the
      impact on cost of goods sold and operating profit of incremental markdowns,
      substantially all of which were taken in connection with the decision to
      eliminate the historical packaway strategy and to close approximately 400
      underperforming stores, including a $71.2 million charge in the thirteen
      weeks ended November 3, 2006 to record a reserve for management's estimate
      of anticipated future markdowns that were expected to reduce inventory below
      cost. The amount of such markdowns was estimated by aggregating markdowns taken
      on the Project Alpha inventory, reduced by any markdowns that were determined
      to
      be normal in-season clearance and therefore not incremental, net of the change
      in the below-cost reserve for such markdowns.
(b)
Amounts
      relate to
      expenses associated with Project Alpha inventory and real estate initiatives,
      including lease contract termination and other store closing costs, advertising,
      inventory liquidation fees, incremental store labor and other
      costs.
(c)
Amounts
      represent the
      operating losses (excluding depreciation) of the 403 stores identified in
      Project Alpha to be closed, but for which closure has not yet
      occurred.
18
(d)
Amounts
      represent
      non-cash asset impairments, other than those in the 403 stores identified
      in Project Alpha to be closed.
(e)
Represents
      the annual
      management fee payable to affiliates of certain of the Investors pursuant to
      a
      Management Agreement.
(f)
Amounts
      represent
      professional fees (investment banking, consulting, legal, etc.) and other costs
      incurred in connection with Project Alpha and the proposed Merger.
(g)
Represents
      the reversal
      of the increase to pro forma EBITDA resulting from the pro forma acquisition
      of
      certain DCs contained in our Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated
      Financial Statements as we do not expect these transactions to occur. We intend
      to renegotiate or refinance the leases relating to those DCs in connection
      with
      or immediately following consummation of the Transactions. However, our
      Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations reflects
      the
      estimated impact of the assumed acquisition of such DC's, which resulted in
      a
      $6.2 million increase in pro forma EBITDA ($2.5 million reduction in
      our pro forma net loss and a $3.7 million increase in our pro forma
      depreciation expense) for the 52 week period ended May 4,
      2007.
For
      the
      52 week period ended May 4, 2007, (i) pro forma cash interest expense was $402.8
      million and the ratio of pro forma Adjusted EBITDA to cash interest expense
      was
      1.6x and (ii) total debt was $4.7 billion and the ratio of pro forma total
      debt
      to Adjusted EBITDA was 7.1x. Cash interest expense includes the interest portion
      of our capital lease obligations but excludes the amortization of debt issuance
      costs and non-cash interest related to our indebtedness. To the extent we elect
      to pay PIK Interest on the senior toggle notes after the initial interest
      period, our pro forma cash interest expense would decrease accordingly but
      our
      long-term obligations to pay principal would be increased.
Individual
      Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan with David A.
      Perdue
We
      maintain an individual supplemental executive retirement plan for
      Mr. Perdue that provides that, in the event of his termination by us
      without cause at any time or his voluntary resignation for good reason within
      two years after a change in control of Dollar General, Mr. Perdue will be
      deemed to have five additional years of credited service and his compensation
      will be deemed to continue for purposes of calculating his vesting and benefit.
      The SERP provides that the full amount of benefits due will be funded into
      the
      existing grantor trust within 30 days following a change in control of
      Dollar General and upon Mr. Perdue's termination by us without cause or his
      voluntary resignation for good reason and payable in accordance with the terms
      of the plan. The completion of the Merger will constitute a change in control
      for purposes of the plan and trust. The amount that would be funded into the
      grantor trust upon completion of the Merger assuming an estimated closing date
      of July 6, 2007, is approximately $6,630,934.
