EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION Compensation of Directors During fiscal 2001, all of the Company's non-employee directors served an entire fiscal year and were compensated by cash payments and shares of the Company's common stock. For the cash component of their compensation, the non- employee directors are paid an annual fee consisting of $15,000, paid in quarterly installments in advance at the beginning of each calendar quarter. Each non-employee director also received $1,000 in cash for each Board meeting and each committee meeting attended in person and $500 in cash for each meeting attended by telephone. Expenses incurred in attending meetings in person are reimbursable by the Company. Directors who are employees of the Company or its subsidiaries are not compensated for service as members of the Board or any committee of the Board. In addition to the cash payments described above, on May 1 of each year the Company's non-employee directors also receive an automatic award of shares under the Company's Non-Employee Director Stock Plan. This award of the Company's common stock is valued at approximately $15,000 on the date of the award, pursuant to the terms of the Non-Employee Director Stock Plan and is issued to each non-employee director who is serving as such on the award date. For purposes of the Non-Employee Director Stock Plan, an eligible non-employee director is one who is a member of the Company's Board, who is not and has not been an employee of the Company or its direct or indirect subsidiaries and who is paid an annual cash retainer fee for his services as a director. For the May 1, 2001 grant, Messrs. Bouchut, Couvreux, Crull, Gold, Guichard, McLaughlin, Ornstein, Plaskett and Snollaerts were all eligible non-employee directors under the Non-Employee Director Stock Plan and each received 1,369 shares of common stock. Each share award comprises that number of shares equal to the quotient of $15,000 divided by the fair market value of a share on the award date as defined in the plan. Cash is paid in lieu of fractional shares. Any shares awarded must be held by such non-employee director for at least six months after the award date. The Company's Stock Incentive Plan, as amended, expired in June 2001 as to new grants. This plan provided that any elected or appointed non-employee director serving prior to 1998 received an automatic grant of options to purchase 22,500 shares of the Company's Common Stock, as of the date of his initial appointment or election. Such options are nonqualified stock options, have exercise prices equal to the fair market value of the Common Stock at the date of grant, have an exercise term of ten years after the date of grant and are subject to early termination in the event the option holder ceases to be a director, becomes permanently disabled or dies. One-third of these options become exercisable two years after the date of grant and each year thereafter, so that 100% would be exercisable four years after the date of grant. There are still 40,000 options that have been granted under the Company's Stock Incentive Plan to non-employee directors, but have not been exercised. These options will expire, if not exercised, on or before June 18, 2006. The Company also has a Directors Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Directors Deferred Compensation Plan"), in which the Company's directors are eligible to defer on a pre-tax basis up to 100% of their director's cash fees (with a minimum annual deferral of $2,500) and any shares of the Company's common stock received as compensation for their services as a director. Participation is voluntary on an annual basis. Deferrals of cash amounts are credited to a special bookkeeping account in the participant's name, and earnings on deferrals are indexed to certain investment fund options. Deferrals of the Company's common stock are held within the plan, for the benefit of the deferring director's account and are not redeemable for cash. The Company pays all benefits and costs from its general assets and, while it has created a non- qualified grantor trust whose assets will be used to pay benefits and defray expenses, the assets of the trust are subject to the claims of the Company's general creditors in the event of the Company's insolvency or bankruptcy. In general, participants will receive benefits under the Directors Deferred Compensation Plan after retirement in one of four pre-elected payment options: one lump-sum payment; or a stream of five, ten or 15 annual payments. Limited withdrawals prior to retirement are permitted in accordance with the terms of the Directors Deferred Compensation Plan. The Directors Deferred Compensation Plan also provides additional death benefits in the event of death prior to retirement. During 2001, five directors participated in this plan. 6 Compensation of Executives Summary Compensation Table.

As a result of this change in policy, and pursuant to California law, Messrs. Lynch, Chiavelli and Alvarado received $176,550, $125,128, $57,937, respectively, as payment for the vacation days that they had already accrued in excess of the newly established ceiling.

Roeder, Lynch, Chiavelli, Alvarado and $1,034 for Mr. Schofield. Company contributions under the 401(k) Savings Plan and the Supplemental Deferred Compensation Plan during fiscal 1999 were as follows: $1,558 for Mr. Roeder, $2,400, aggregate for both plans for each of Messrs. Lynch, Chiavelli and Alvarado. Company payments of life and health insurance premiums during fiscal 2001 were as follows: $21,891 for Mr. Roeder, $18,031 for Mr. Lynch, $16,089 for Mr. Chiavelli, $14,163 for Mr. Duge, $14,542 for Mr. Schofield, and $15,926 for Mr. Alvarado.

In accordance with the Roeder Employment Agreement, Mr. Roeder received a bonus of $23,946 in fiscal 2001 and $20,756 in fiscal 2000 in recognition of interest due under two loans and the net amount of personal tax gross-up on the bonus. 8 Option Grants Table. The following table summarizes options granted during fiscal 2001 to the persons listed in the Summary Compensation Table above: OPTION GRANTS IN LAST FISCAL YEAR Individual Grants -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Number of Grant Date Securities % of Total Exercise Present Underlying Options Granted Price Value of Options to Employees in Per Expiration Stock Name Granted (#)(1) Fiscal Year Share ($/sh) Date Options ($)(2) ---- -------------- ----------- ------------ ---- -------------- Ross E.

Alvarado........................ 20,000 2.23% $10.132 9/27/11 $ 83,723 - ------------ (1) Options granted are nonqualified stock options granted under the Equity Compensation Plan, may be exercised up to ten years after the date of the grant and are subject to early termination in the event the option holder ceases to be an employee, becomes permanently disabled or dies. No option can be granted at an option price of less than the fair market value of Common Stock at the time the option is granted. For the grants made in 2001, one-third of the options become exercisable two years after the date of grant and each year thereafter so that 100% are exercisable four years after the date of grant. Unvested options will vest immediately upon a change in control. (2) The Company used the Black-Scholes model of option valuation to determine the present values at the grant dates. The Company does not advocate or necessarily agree that the Black-Scholes model can properly determine the value of an option. Calculations for the named executive officers are based on the following assumptions: individual option terms of up to 10 years, volatility of 36.66%, no dividends, and interest rates of 6.309% for Mr. Roeder, 5.723% for Mr. Lynch, 5.795% for Mr. Chiavelli, 5.687% for Mr. Duge, 6.040% for Mr. Schofield, and 5.909% for Mr. Alvarado, which corresponds to the weighted average of the ten year Treasury note rates with a maturity date corresponding to the option term for each of the grants. The real value of the options in this table depends upon the actual performance of the Company's stock during the applicable period and upon when they are exercised. Aggregated Option Exercises Table. The following table summarizes option exercises during fiscal 2001, and the number of all options and the value of all in-the-money options held at the end of fiscal 2001, by the executive officers named in the above Summary Compensation Table.

Pension Plan and 401(k) Savings Plans. The following table sets forth estimated annual pension benefits under the Smart & Final Pension Plan (the "Pension Plan"), on a straight life annuity basis for representative years of service as defined in the Pension Plan. Such benefits are subject to reduction for certain prior company retirement benefit plans. PENSION PLAN TABLE Final Average Remuneration on Earnings Based Which Retirement on Each Year's Estimated Annual Retirement Benefits at Age 65 Benefits are Based(2) Limited Earnings For Indicated Years of Credited Service(1) - --------------------- ---------------- ------------------------------------------ 15 20 25 30 35 -- -- -- -- -- $ 125,000...................................... $125,000 $18,750 $25,000 $31,250 $37,500 $43,750 $ 150,000...................................... $150,000 $22,500 $30,000 $37,500 $45,000 $52,500 $ 175,000...................................... $175,000 $26,250 $35,000 $43,750 $52,500 $61,250 $ 200,000...................................... $200,000 $30,000 $40,000 $50,000 $60,000 $70,000 $ 225,000...................................... $200,000 $30,000 $40,000 $50,000 $60,000 $70,000 $ 250,000...................................... $200,000 $30,000 $40,000 $50,000 $60,000 $70,000 $ 500,000...................................... $200,000 $30,000 $40,000 $50,000 $60,000 $70,000 $ 750,000...................................... $200,000 $30,000 $40,000 $50,000 $60,000 $70,000 $1,000,000...................................... $200,000 $30,000 $40,000 $50,000 $60,000 $70,000 $1,250,000...................................... $200,000 $30,000 $40,000 $50,000 $60,000 $70,000 $1,500,000...................................... $200,000 $30,000 $40,000 $50,000 $60,000 $70,000 - --------- (1) Amounts shown are for employees hired on January 1, 2002 and assume retirement at age 65 after employment for the indicated number of years. Estimated annual retirement benefits are based on the plan in effect on January 1, 2002 and assume that no other offsets or grandfathered benefits are applied. (2) Effective January 1, 2002, the compensation used to determine the retirement benefit could not exceed $200,000 for all years of service. This limit is adjusted annually for cost-of-living. For purposes of this table, it is assumed to remain at $200,000 for all future years. The Company maintains the Pension Plan for the benefit of Smart & Final Stores' employees who meet certain age and service requirements, to provide certain benefits in the event of normal, early or disability retirement, or death. Smart & Final Stores' employees that are covered by a collective bargaining agreement are not covered by the Pension Plan. The benefits are calculated on the basis of the participant's years of service (with years of service prior to January 1, 1992 being credited as though each year was 1.5 years) and the participant's qualifying average pay during his five highest paid consecutive years of service in the ten years prior to the date he ceases his employment, with the minimum benefits for certain qualifying participants being at least equal to his accrued benefit they would have received under the Company's prior pension plan. The qualifying average pay on which benefits are based includes bonuses, overtime and other compensation but does not include amounts to be paid under the Pension Plan or any other employee benefit plan. A participant becomes 100% vested in his retirement benefit at the end of the fifth year of service. Under the Pension Plan, at the end of fiscal 2001, Messrs. Roeder, Lynch, Chiavelli, Duge, Schofield and Alvarado had credited approximately 3, 12.5, 16, 1, 2 and 14.25 actual year(s) of service, respectively, and would have been entitled to minimum annual benefits of approximately $5,000, $25,725, $33,608, $1,700, $3,400 and $26,855, respectively. The Company also maintains a defined contribution plan (the "401(k) Savings Plan") which is intended to satisfy the tax qualification requirements of Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Internal Revenue Code"). All employees of the Company (other than those covered by the Smart & Final Foodservice and Henry Lee employee benefit plans described below) who meet certain age and service requirements are eligible to participate in the 401(k) Savings Plan, which allows participants to contribute, for fiscal 2001, up to 15% of their compensation or $10,500, whichever was lower. In fiscal 2001, the Company increased its match from 25% to 33% of each dollar contributed up to 6% of each participant's eligible compensation. Additionally, in fiscal 2001, the Company made a discretionary 8% match with respect to contributions made in fiscal 2000, to adjust that year's match from 25% to 10 33%. Participants' contributions to the 401(k) Savings Plan, which are deemed to be contributions of the Company for tax purposes, are deducted from the participants' compensation prior to the calculation of federal and state income taxes, thereby decreasing the amount of a participant's compensation subject to tax. Participants are currently entitled to direct their contributions to one or more of thirteen investment options. None of a participant's account balance in the 401(k) Savings Plan may be withdrawn prior to termination of employment or his attainment of age 70, whichever occurs earlier, except upon certain qualified financial hardships or through loans. Distribution of a participant's account balance, if less than $5,000, will generally be made in a lump sum payment in the year following the termination of employment. Distribution of a participant's account balance in excess of $5,000 will be made in accordance with the participant's election following the termination of employment. A participant's contributions to the 401(k) Savings Plan will vest immediately. The Company's contributions on behalf of a participant will vest at the rate of 25% per year beginning after the second year of the participant's service and will be 100% vested after five years. Henry Lee and Smart & Final Foodservice each maintain a defined contribution plan which is intended to satisfy the tax qualification requirements of Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Henry Lee 401(k) Plan is similar to the 401(k) Savings Plan with respect to the tax advantages, loan features and hardship withdrawal provisions. The Henry Lee 401(k) Plan differs from the Company's plan in several respects. The differences include eligibility requirements, the Henry Lee automatic match of 50% of each dollar contributed up to 6% of the participant's contribution, and immediate vesting in all employer contributions. Participants are entitled to direct their contributions to eight different investment options. The Smart & Final Foodservice Plan is similar to the 401(k) Plan, but also calls for a 50% automatic match of each dollar contributed up to 6% of the participant's contribution. There is a five year vesting schedule at a rate of 20% per year commencing the first year of eligible employment. Participants are entitled to direct their contributions to five different investment options. For those Smart & Final Foodservice employees that are part of a collective bargaining unit, the company's contribution to the 401(k) Plan is based upon the terms of their agreement. Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan. Since 1998, the Company has provided a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ("SERP") to certain of its key executives and other highly compensated employees which provides for a single life annuity to be payable monthly commencing at age 65 or upon the participant's early retirement or disability as those terms are defined in the SERP document. A participant may be entitled to receive benefits under the SERP in the event of a change in control of the Company. In addition, in the event the participant dies prior to his or her retirement, disability or termination of employment, his or her survivor also may be entitled to receive benefits under the SERP. The amount of the annuity benefit is determined by multiplying the standard benefit percentage assigned to each participant according to his or her title and position by the average of the final five calendar years of a participant's compensation. Participants in the SERP are selected by the Board of the Company. The SERP is administered by a third party administrator. At fiscal year end 2001, there were 19 participants in the SERP, including all of the executive officers listed in the Summary Compensation Table. Deferred Compensation Plan. The Company also has a Supplemental Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Deferred Compensation Plan") in which certain Company employees who earned annual base compensation of at least $85,000 in 2001 are eligible to defer pre-tax up to 100% of their base compensation, cash bonus (with a minimum annual deferral of $2,500), and shares of restricted stock. Participation is voluntary on an annual basis. Deferrals are credited to a special bookkeeping account in the participant's name, and earnings on deferrals are indexed to certain investment fund options. The Company pays all benefits and costs from its general assets and, while it has created a non-qualified grantor trust whose assets will be used to pay benefits and defray expenses, the assets of the trust are subject to the claims of the Company's general creditors in the event of the Company's insolvency or bankruptcy. In general, participants will receive benefits under the Deferred Compensation Plan after retirement (with the minimum age for early retirement being 55 with ten years of service) in one of four pre-elected payment options, one lump-sum payment or a stream of five, ten or 15 annual payments. Limited withdrawals prior to retirement are permitted in accordance with the terms of the Deferred Compensation Plan. In addition to the general death benefits provided to all employees of the company, the Deferred Compensation Plan provides its own death benefits in the event of the death, prior to retirement, of a participating employee. Executive Severance Agreement. The Company's officers and certain designated officers of the Company's subsidiaries are eligible to participate in the 2001 Executive Severance Plan ("Executive Severance Plan") which provides a minimum severance of 12 months base salary, or a month's base salary for each year of service, whichever is greater. Severance is not available to executives who are terminated for cause or who voluntarily 11 terminate their employment. All the welfare benefits received by the officer during his employment are continued during the severance period. Following a change of control, the executives can resign for "good reason" and be eligible for the benefits available under the Executive Severance Plan. "Good reason" is defined as a reduction in duties and/or compensation, or being asked to relocate. Under a "good reason" resignation, executive vice presidents are eligible for a two year severance period. Participants in the Executive Severance Plan are selected by the Compensation Committee. At fiscal year end 2001 there were 17 participants in the plan. Roeder Employment Agreement. In early 1999, the Company and Mr. Roeder entered into an employment agreement (the "Roeder Employment Agreement") wherein Mr. Roeder agreed to serve as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company through December 31, 2001. In May 2001 the agreement was amended to extend the term of Mr. Roeder's employment through December 31, 2004, however, if the Company requests that Mr. Roeder continue to serve as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company in 2004, then his Employment Agreement will automatically extend until December 31, 2005. In that instance, Mr. Roeder will serve as the Company's Chairman but not as Chief Executive Officer during 2005. Upon the effective date of expiration, the Company will continue to pay Mr. Roeder's base salary for a period of 24 months in accordance with its normal payroll practices and shall also pay Mr. Roeder an amount equal to twice the average bonus paid to him for the three fiscal years ending with the date of expiration of the term and all benefits to which Mr. Roeder has a vested right, including retirement benefits and retiree medical insurance. Mr. Roeder's base salary is determined from time to time by the Board, but may not be less than $600,000 per year on an annualized basis. Once increased, the base salary may not be decreased. At present, his base salary is $700,000. The Roeder Employment Agreement provides that Mr. Roeder has the opportunity to earn an annual cash bonus and that the minimum target annual bonus opportunity will be at least 100% of his annual base salary, provided that the Company meets its financial targets. Mr. Roeder received a bonus of 80% of his annual base salary for the 2001 fiscal year, which was paid in 2002. Mr. Roeder also has the opportunity to earn long-term incentive awards and participate in all Company qualified retirement plans, group term life insurance, comprehensive health and major medical insurance, short and long-term disability and all other benefits and perquisites in which other executives and employees of the Company are eligible to participate, including Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ("SERP") benefits in an amount not less than $125,000 per year, automobile allowance, retiree medical coverage and financial planning services, all as commensurate with Mr. Roeder's position. Mr. Roeder is entitled to certain tax "gross up" benefits relating to his bonus and restricted stock awards described below. Mr. Roeder is also entitled to a minimum of five weeks paid vacation per year. On September 27, 2001, Mr. Roeder received a grant of 300,000 options from the Equity Compensation Plan. These grants have a ten year term and vest as follows: 100,000 on September 27, 2003, 100,000 on September 27, 2004, and 100,000 on September 27, 2005. In fiscal 2000, Mr. Roeder received a grant of 20,000 shares of restricted stock under the Equity Compensation Plan. All of these shares vested in February 2001 in accordance with the Roeder Employment Agreement. Mr. Roeder voluntarily elected, pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code to be taxed on the fair market value of these shares on the date they were transferred to Mr. Roeder and, pursuant to the Roeder Employment Agreement, the Company contemporaneously provided Mr. Roeder with a loan in the principal amount of $61,951, evidenced by a promissory note bearing interest at 6.35%. The principal amount of the loan is equal to the amount of income and payroll taxes payable by Mr. Roeder on the compensation recognized as a result of the issue of shares of restricted stock and the Section 83(b) election. The principal amount of the note will be paid in fiscal 2002. In fiscal 1999, Mr. Roeder also made a voluntary election pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code with respect to a grant of 50,000 shares of restricted stock and, pursuant to the Roeder Employment Agreement, the Company contemporaneously provided Mr. Roeder with a loan in the principal amount of $273,149, evidenced by a promissory note bearing interest at 4.84%. In accordance with the Roeder Employment Agreement, Mr. Roeder has received bonuses of approximately $23,946 in fiscal 2001 and $20,756 in fiscal 2000 in recognition of interest due under these two loans and the net amount of personal tax gross-up on the bonus. Also in accordance with the Roeder Employment Agreement and following the scheduled maturity of these two loans, Mr. Roeder will receive in fiscal 2002 a bonus in the aggregate principal amount of the two loans and the net amount of personal tax gross-up on the bonus. In December 2000, Mr. Roeder received 4,421 shares of restricted stock as part of the Voluntary Exchange Program, for which Mr. Roeder surrendered approximately 15,000 stock options of approximately equal value. These shares have not vested. The Board also granted Mr. Roeder 50,000 options from the Equity Compensation Plan on February 15, 2000. These options have a ten year term and vest as follows: 16,667 shares vest on February 15, 2002; 16,667 shares vest on February 15, 2003; and the remaining 16,666 shares vest on February 15, 2004. In the event of a 12 Change in Control, termination of the Roeder Employment Agreement due to his death or disability, a termination by the Company without cause or a termination with good reason, all outstanding options will immediately vest and remain exercisable for the two-year period following the date of termination but in no event beyond the expiration of the maximum ten year term. The Roeder Employment Agreement further provides that during its term Mr. Roeder will receive an annual grant of options in an amount at least equal to 1.5 times the number of options granted to any other executive officer of the Company. In addition, in June 1999 Mr. Roeder received a loan from the Company in the amount of $47,101, in connection with his purchase of stock in the Company's equity offering. The loan bears interest at 4.84%. In the event the Roeder Employment Agreement is terminated due to Mr. Roeder's retirement, death or disability, or the Company terminates his employment without cause, or Mr. Roeder terminates the Roeder Employment Agreement with "good reason," as defined below, Mr. Roeder is entitled to receive his base salary for the greater of (i) the number of months remaining in the employment term under the Roeder Employment Agreement, or (ii) 12 months (the "Severance Period"). Mr. Roeder would also receive a monthly amount equal to his annual bonus target for the last Company fiscal year completed prior to the date of termination divided by 12. In addition, Mr. Roeder would continue to receive payment for continuation of his and his spouse's medical insurance coverage through COBRA for a period equal to 18 months or until Mr. Roeder were to cease to be eligible for COBRA coverage or he becomes eligible to receive comparable coverage through another employer. Mr. Roeder would also receive additional service and compensation credit under the SERP until he reaches age 65, and continued payment of financial planning services through the Severance Period, plus all other amounts in which he is vested or otherwise entitled under the Company's retirement and employee benefit plans, including retiree medical insurance coverage as described above, at the time such amounts are normally payable. For purposes of the Roeder Employment Agreement, disability generally means Mr. Roeder's inability to perform his duties due to illness or mental infirmity for a period of more than 180 consecutive days. For purposes of the Roeder Employment Agreement, "good reason" is defined as a diminution in Mr. Roeder's title and authority, relocation of the Company's principal office without his consent, the failure of the Company to pay his salary or any other material breach by the Company, or the failure of Mr. Roeder to be elected to the Board or appointed as Chairman of the Board during the employment term. Upon the effective date of a termination due to a Change in Control, the Company shall continue to pay Mr. Roeder (i) any accrued obligations, (ii) a lump-sum payment equal to three times his base salary then in effect and (iii) a lump-sum cash payment equal to three times the greater of (x) the highest annual bonus paid by the Company in the prior three fiscal years, or (y) his annual bonus target for the fiscal year of termination. Mr. Roeder would also receive continuation of health and welfare benefits for three years (subject to termination if Mr. Roeder obtains employment that offers substantially similar benefits) as well as three additional years of service and compensation credit under the SERP. In the event any of the payments in connection with a Change in Control cause an excise tax to be imposed on Mr. Roeder under Section 4999 of the Code, the Company shall pay Mr. Roeder, in cash, an additional amount such that the net amount retained by Mr. Roeder after deduction for any excise tax and any income tax and excise tax upon tax payments made by the Company, shall be equal to the amount Mr. Roeder would have retained had no such excise tax been imposed. For purposes of the Roeder Employment Agreement, the term "Change in Control" has the same definition as in the Company's Executive Severance Plan. The Roeder Employment Agreement also contains Mr. Roeder's covenant not to compete with the Company during the term and for the longer of twelve months following the expiration of the Roeder Employment Agreement or any period during which the amounts are paid under the Roeder Employment Agreement, and a covenant, for a period of 12 months following the expiration of the Roeder Employment Agreement, not to attempt to induce other employees of the Company to terminate employment with the Company or to interfere in a similar manner with the business of the Company. Lynch Agreement. On May 23, 2001, Mr. Lynch retired as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company and from all other executive positions with the Company and its subsidiaries. In connection with his retirement and effective at that date, the Company and Mr. Lynch entered into an agreement amending the previous employment agreement between the Company and Mr. Lynch whereby Mr. Lynch agreed to remain available to provide consulting services and not to compete with the Company for a period of approximately two years commencing June 1, 2001. The amendment further provides that Mr. Lynch will continue to receive salary payments for 24 months, which payments commenced on June 1, 2001, at an annual rate of $335,000, his last salary rate. The amendment also provides that he will receive non-compete payments and a consulting retainer totaling $13,500 per month for the 24 month period. For certain consulting services that Mr. Lynch provides at either the Company's 13 offices or other locations designated by the Company, Mr. Lynch will receive an additional per diem consulting fee that is to be negotiated between the Company and Mr. Lynch, along with reimbursement of his incurred expenses. During the two year period that Mr. Lynch is consulting with the Company, he will continue to receive the other benefits that he received under his employment agreement, other than the performance-based bonus or accrued vacation time. Those benefits include the deferred compensation plan and the SERP and all other benefits afforded under the employment agreement, as amended, between Mr. Lynch and the Company. At the conclusion of the consulting agreement, Mr. Lynch will be fully vested in the SERP, all unvested stock options, restricted stock and any other equity benefits to which he was entitled upon the date of his retirement from the Company.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS Casino France, a publicly traded French joint stock limited liability company, is the principal stockholder of Casino USA. Casino France, acting through Casino USA, acquired the Company's then parent company in 1984. Groupe Casino is currently engaged in retail grocery, restaurant, food production and other businesses in parts of Europe, South America and Asia and, through the Company, the United States. As of December 30, 2001, Casino USA owned 56.8% of the Company's outstanding stock. Groupe Casino currently owns 59.8% of the Company's Common Stock. Since the Common Stock does not have cumulative voting rights, the holders of shares having more than 50% of the voting power may elect all of the directors of the Company, and the holders of the remaining shares would not be able to elect any directors. Casino France owns approximately 99% of the outstanding shares of Casino USA's capital stock. There is no agreement between Casino USA and any other party that would prevent Casino USA from acquiring additional shares of Common Stock or disposing of shares of Common Stock owned by it. The Company's Board currently includes Messrs. Bouchut, Couvreux, Guichard, Ornstein and Snollaerts who also serve as directors of Casino USA and/or who are affiliated with Groupe Casino. In October 2001, Mr. Delolmo was appointed as the Senior Vice President of Business Development for Smart & Final Stores in addition to his position as President and Chief Executive Officer of Casino USA. Since that time Mr. Delolmo has devoted substantially all of his efforts to Smart & Final Stores. The Company and Casino USA are parties to a 1991 intercompany agreement (the "Intercompany Agreement"). The Intercompany Agreement provides for the performance of various administrative services by the Company for Casino USA and by Casino USA for the Company. None of the parties are obligated to use such services. Intercompany services are provided at the cost of providing such services, including the estimated allocable costs of (i) management and other employees performing the services, (ii) computer time, (iii) allocable overhead and (iv) out-of-pocket expenses. Cost, for purposes of management and employees, is based on an estimated allocation of their time based on a study of the actual time spent in past periods. Any fees for such services cannot exceed $100,000 in any three-month period without the written consent of the user of such services. The Intercompany Agreement also provides that Casino USA will not, and will cause its affiliates that it controls or any corporation of which either holds more than 5% of the capital stock not to, engage in the Company's business. The initial term of the Intercompany Agreement was two years, and has been renewed from time to time as provided therein. 15 Since 1986, the Company has performed a variety of services for Casino USA and its former subsidiary, including accounting, human resources and systems development work, the cost of which has been charged to the benefited affiliated company. These charges amounted to approximately $287,000 for fiscal 2001. It is anticipated that the Company will continue to provide these administrative services to its affiliates at its cost and that the levels of future services will not vary significantly from prior levels. The Company and Casino USA are also parties to a tax sharing arrangement covering income tax obligations in the State of California. Under this arrangement, the Company has made tax sharing payments to or received tax sharing benefits from Casino USA, based upon pre-tax income for financial reporting purposes adjusted for certain agreed upon items. The Company made tax sharing payments to Casino USA aggregating $2,381,000 in fiscal 2001. Etienne Snollaerts, a director of the Company since 1998 and a member of the Compensation Committee of the Company since May 2001, is an employee of Groupe Casino. James S. Gold, a director of the Company since 1994 and a member of the Compensation Committee since May 2001, is a Managing Director with Lazard Freres & Co., LLC, an investment banking firm. Lazard Freres has provided services to Groupe Casino and to the Company in the past and may, in the future provide such services. Effective November 30, 2001, the Company entered into a $175,000,000 secured revolving credit facility ("Credit Agreement") with a group of commercial bank lenders to replace a $129,000,000 credit facility that commenced in November 1998. The proceeds available under the Credit Agreement were used to pay off the outstanding balance of the 1998 credit facility and the Company's $16,000,000 note to Casino USA. Effective November 30, 2001, the Company additionally entered into an $87,100,000 operating lease agreement ("Lease Agreement"). Several financial institutions and Casino USA are all participants in the Lease Agreement. Casino USA's share of participation in the Lease Agreement is $16,100,000. 16 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Los Angeles, State of California, on April 24, 2002. --------------- Smart & Final Inc.
