     *Less than 1%.

          (1)  Assumes conversion of all of the holder's notes at a conversion
               price of 9.8105 shares of Jones Apparel Group common stock per
               $1,000 principal amount at maturity of the notes. This
               conversion price, however, will be subject to adjustment as
               described under "Description of the Notes--Conversion





               Rights." As a result, the number of shares of Jones Apparel
               Group common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes may
               increase or decrease in the future.

          (2)  Calculated based on Rule 13d-3(d)(i) of the Exchange Act using
               119,840,155 shares of common stock outstanding as of April 2,
               2001. In calculating this amount, we treated as outstanding the
               number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of
               all of that particular holder's notes. However, we did not
               assume the conversion of any other holder's notes.

          (3)  Banc of America Corporation, the parent company of Banc of
               America Securities LLC, is a lender under the Senior Credit
               Facilities.

          (4)  Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc. was an initial purchaser of the notes.
               The notes being sold by Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc. pursuant to
               this prospectus were purchased in secondary market trading. In
               1999, Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc. served as financial advisor to
               Nine West in connection with Jones Apparel Group's acquisition
