Kmart Holding Corporation (NASDAQ: KMRT) stated, in response to a press release issued earlier today by PepsiCo, that the improperly recorded vendor allowance transactions at Kmart which relate to the SEC's notification to PepsiCo were previously identified as part of the investigation and stewardship review that Kmart completed in early 2003 prior to emergence from bankruptcy. As part of that investigation, Kmart cooperated actively with the SEC and the U.S. Department of Justice, including the disclosure to these agencies of information regarding the improperly recorded vendor allowances.

In response to the findings of the investigation, prior to emergence from bankruptcy, Kmart terminated all employees it determined were responsible for the improper recording of vendor allowances. Furthermore, financial statements for fiscal 2001 and prior years were restated to correct these improperly recorded allowances.

The detailed discussion and results of the investigation and stewardship review are contained in the Disclosure Statement that Kmart filed as Exhibit 2.2 to its Current Report on Form 8-K dated March 7, 2003.
