ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Since 1984, Melvin J. Simon & Associates, Ltd. has provided accounting and other financial services to the Company. Mr. Simon, a director and the Assistant Secretary of the Company and Co-Trustee of the Voting Trust, is the sole owner of Melvin J. Simon & Associates, Ltd. The Company paid Melvin J. Simon & Associates, Ltd. approximately $18,236, $36,845 and $3,448 in fiscal 2001, 2002 and 2003, respectively, for its services. The Company believes that these services are provided on terms no less favorable to the Company than could be obtained from unaffiliated parties. The Company has granted Robert C. Penny III and Melvin J. Simon, as Trustees of the Voting Trust, certain registration rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock held in the Voting Trust. In June 2001, trusts for the benefit of Robert C. Penny III, a director of the Company, and other Penny family members, entered into a guaranty of $10 million of the Company's obligations under its revolving credit facility. In consideration of the guarantee, the Company has granted those trusts warrants to purchase 512,820 shares of Class A Common Stock for a period of five years at an exercise price of $1.95 per share (the fair market value on the date of grant) and agreed to grant registration rights with respect to shares acquired upon exercise. This guarantee is no longer in place. The Company has a severance agreement and deferred compensation arrangement with Mr. Cullens, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. See "Executive Compensation."
