Except for the historical and factual information contained herein, the matters set forth in this presentation, particularly estimates and statements pertaining to SUPERVALU's expectations or future operating results, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially, including competition, ability to execute initiatives, substantial indebtedness, impact of economic conditions, labor relations issues, escalating costs of providing employee benefits, regulatory matters, food and drug safety issues, self- insurance, legal and administrative proceedings, information technology, severe weather, natural disasters and adverse climate changes, the continuing review of goodwill and other intangible assets, accounting matters and other risk factors relating to our business or industry as detailed from time to time in SUPERVALU's reports filed with the SEC. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this presentation. Neither SVU nor any of its affiliates, representatives or advisors assumes any responsibility for, or makes any representation or warranty (express or implied) as to, the reasonableness, completeness, accuracy or reliability of the estimates and other information contained herein, which speak only as of the date identified on the cover page of this presentation. SVU and its affiliates, representatives and advisors expressly disclaim any and all liability based, in whole or in part, on such information, errors therein or omissions therefrom. Neither SVU nor any of its affiliates, representatives or advisors intends to update or otherwise revise the estimates and other information contained herein to reflect circumstances existing after the date identified on the cover page of this presentation to reflect the occurrence of future events even if any or all of the assumptions, judgments and estimates on which the information contained herein is based are shown to be in error. Tender Offer Statement This communication is neither an offer to purchase nor a solicitation of an offer to sell any shares of the common stock of the Company.

Symphony Investors LLC has filed a tender offer statement on Schedule TO, including an offer to purchase, a letter of transmittal and related documents, and the Company has filed a statement on Schedule 14D-9 with respect to the tender offer, with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Shareholders should read those materials carefully because they contain important information, including the various terms and conditions of the tender offer.

Basis of Presentation The historical unaudited financial information of SUPERVALU included in the Lender Presentation has been prepared to reflect the historical financial information of the remaining operations of SUPERVALU following the Transactions. The historical unaudited financial information presented for SUPERVALU excludes the financial information of the New Albertsons's, Inc. ("NAI") business operations expected to be sold to AB Acquisition as announced on January 10, 2013, other than the assets and liabilities of NAI that are expected to be retained by SUPERVALU pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement. The historical unaudited financial information included in the Lender Presentation reflects periods during which SUPERVALU operated as a consolidated entity inclusive of the operations of NAI, and accordingly, the presentation to exclude such operations has relied on assumptions and allocations to separate the NAI operations, and are not necessarily indicative of the future operations or financial position of the Company following the Transactions. Management believes the assumptions and allocations underlying this presentation of the Company's financial information are reasonable and appropriate, but such assumptions and allocations are preliminary and based on estimates and are subject to change. This historical unaudited financial information was not prepared to comply with the requirements of generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Additionally, the historical unaudited financial information of SUPERVALU included in the Lender Presentation does not include the proposed debt refinancing or debt refinancing costs, the tender offer or tender offer costs or other costs associated with the Transactions. Furthermore, it does not purport to comply with pro forma disclosures in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Regulation S-X. Therefore, the assumptions and allocations underlying the financial information included in the Lender Presentation differ from those that would be included in pro forma financial information for the Company giving effect to the Transactions, and such differences may be material. Accordingly no inference should be drawn from the financial information included in the Lender Presentation with regard to the Company's results of operations and financial position subsequent to the Transactions. The Company intends to file a Form 8-K with the SEC within four business days of the closing of the Transactions that will include unaudited pro forma financial information prepared in accordance with Regulation S-X. Additionally, the historical unaudited financial information for SUPERVALU included in the Lender Presentation does not present the assets and operations being disposed of in the Banner Sale as discontinued operations. However, the Company will be required to present those as discontinued operations in certain future periodic financial statements filed with the SEC, and to recast certain historical financial statements to reflect the discontinued operations in certain future filings with the SEC. The historical unaudited financial information for SUPERVALU included in the Lender Presentation will differ from such recast historical financial statements in a number of ways, and such differences may be material. Finally, certain items contained in the historical unaudited financial information for SUPERVALU included in the Lender Presentation, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and certain measures of Operating earnings (loss), as adjusted, are non-GAAP financial measures and are provided as a supplement to the other historical unaudited financial information that is included and should not be considered an alternative to any GAAP measure of performance or liquidity. The presentation of these financial measures is not intended to be a substitute for or be superior to any financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Lenders are cautioned that there are material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures as an analytical tool. Certain adjustments to SUPERVALU's historical financial measures exclude certain items, specifically store closure charges, asset impairments, severance charges, and gains on sales, that are occasionally recurring in nature and may be reflected in our financial results for the foreseeable future. These measurements and items may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Management believes the measurements and items in such non-GAAP metrics are important measures of business performance that provide Lenders with useful supplemental information. Those measures should be reviewed in conjunction with SUPERVALU's financial results reported in accordance with GAAP and with the historical unaudited financial information for SUPERVALU included in the Lender Presentation, which, as noted above, was not prepared to comply with the requirements of GAAP. 2 |
