EXECUTIVE DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN OF

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000
The following brief description of the Executive Deferred Compensation Plan of Federated Department Stores, Inc. (the "Plan") is provided for general information purposes only. Participants should refer to the Plan document for more complete information.
General
The Plan is sponsored by Federated Department Stores, Inc. (the "Company"). The Plan was established to enable key employees of the Company to defer compensation for personal income tax purposes. The nonqualified Plan was adopted in 1993 and is not subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The Plan is not subject to income taxation.
Eligibility and Vesting
The Plan covers key employees, as designated by the Company. Participation is voluntary and participants can elect to make contributions to the Plan. Participants are 100% vested in the Plan at all times.
Participant Accounts
An account is maintained for each participant in the Plan which shows the participant's separate interest in the Cash Credit and Stock Credit portions of the Plan. If a Cash Credit is elected, the participant's account shall be credited, as of the end of each calendar quarter, with the dollar amount of deferred compensation. At the end of each calendar quarter, the Cash Credit account shall be credited with interest at a rate equal to one-quarter of the percent per annum on United States Five-Year Treasury Bills as of the last day of such calendar quarter. If a Stock Credit is elected, the participant's account shall be credited, as of the end of each calendar quarter, with a stock equivalent which shall be the number of full shares of common stock of the Company that is transferred to or purchased by the Grantor Trust (defined later) with the amount of deferred compensation and with the dollar amount of any part of such credit that is not convertible into a full share. At the end of each calendar quarter, the Stock Credit account shall be credited with a dividend equivalent as declared by the Company, if any, upon each share of common stock during such calendar quarter.
Participants are eligible for distribution of their benefits upon retirement, death, termination of service, in the event of a designated change of control of the Company and in the event of immediate unexpected financial needs of the participant, as the Plan is not subject to the hardship rules of Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code. Participants, prior to termination, may request to receive the balance of their cash and stock credit accounts in one to fifteen approximately equal installments. Such requests are subject to committee approval.
Effective January 1, 2002, participants have the ability to defer cash compensation on a short-term basis, for a minimum of five years. At the time of such deferral election, participants may request to receive the balance of this short-term deferral account in one to fifteen approximately equal installments. Notwithstanding, participants are eligible for distribution of this short-term account as well as other balances due them under the Plan upon retirement, death, termination of service, in the event of a designated change of control of the Company and in the event of immediate unexpected financial needs of the participant, as the Plan is not subject to the hardship rules of Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code.
Grantor Trust
The Company established a Grantor (Rabbi) Trust, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, intended to meet the safe harbor provisions of RevProc 92-64, for the benefit of participants' Stock Credits under the Plan. The Trust shall be governed by and subject to the terms of a trust agreement entered into between the Company, as grantor, and the trustee.
The accompanying financial statements of the Plan have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.
The Plan's investments consist of receivables from the Company and common stock of the Company, both of which exceed 5% of assets available for plan benefits. The Company maintains separate book accounts for the benefit of each Plan participant and periodically credits such accounts for deferred compensation, interest income and withdrawals. Stock holdings are recorded at their cost at the time of purchase and are presented at their fair market values. The stock credits had a cost basis of $17,442,492 and $16,588,149 at December 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the plan administrator to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions are subject to inherent uncertainties, which may result in actual amounts differing from reported amounts.
Although the Company has not expressed any intent to terminate the Plan, it may do so at any time. In the event the Plan is terminated, all sums credited to individual accounts would be distributed to participants.
All administrative costs of the Plan are borne by the Company.
