ITEM 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the
Issuer
Term Loans and Term Warrants
On June 11, 2002, Schottenstein Stores Corporation and Cerberus Partners, L.P., a Delaware
limited partnership (Cerberus), entered into a financing agreement and agreed to a form of
warrant pursuant to which (i) Schottenstein Stores Corporation and Cerberus made available to
Retail Ventures two term loans (the Term Loans) each in the aggregate principal amount of
$50,000,000 and (ii) Cerberus, Retail Ventures and Schottenstein Stores Corporation agreed to a
form of warrant (the Term Warrants) that were issued to each of Schottenstein Stores Corporation
and Cerberus in connection with the extension of credit described in clause (i) above. The Term
Loans were repaid in full on July 5, 2005.
On July 5, 2005, the Term Warrants were amended and restated to entitle Schottenstein Stores
Corporation and Cerberus, respectively, to acquire directly from Retail Ventures 1,388,752 shares
of Retail Ventures stock for $4.50 per share (subject to adjustment for anti-dilution) or 328,915
Class A Common Shares for $19 per share (the IPO price, subject to adjustment for anti-dilution),
or a combination thereof (the New Term Warrants). The expiration date of the New Term Warrants
is June 11, 2012.
As described above, on May 30, 2008, Schottenstein Stores Corporation contributed its New Term
Warrants to Schottenstein RVI, LLC (the New Term Warrants Transfer). Subsequent to the transfer,
Cerberus exercised warrants that triggered the anti-dilution provisions of the New Term Warrants
entitling Schottenstein RVI, LLC to acquire an additional 342,708 shares of Retail Ventures stock.
Therefore, Schottenstein RVI, LLC has the right to acquire 1,731,460 shares of Retail Ventures
stock pursuant to the New Term Warrants.
The descriptions of the transactions and agreements set forth in this Schedule 13D are
qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete agreements governing such matters, each of
