D.AUDIT COMMITTEE.



The
Company has a separately-designated standing audit committee established in accordance with section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange
Act.



The Audit Committee has the principal function

public accountants concerning the scope of their examination of the books and records of the Company and their audit and non-audit
fees, recommending to the Board the appointment of independent registered public accountants, reviewing and approving related party
transactions and considering other appropriate matters regarding the financial affairs of the Company. The current members of the
Audit Committee are Bernard H. Tenenbaum (Chairman), Henry M. Chidgey and Thomas E. Zanecchia. None of these individuals is, or
has ever been, an officer or employee of the Company and all are considered “independent” for the purposes of the NASDAQ

Item
11.	 EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION



A.
COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS.



The
following Compensation Discussion and Analysis describes the material elements of compensation for the Company’s executive
officers identified in the Summary Compensation Table. The Compensation Discussion and Analysis also provides analysis with respect
to the compensation disclosed in the tables that follow.



Compensation Philosophy:The Company’s compensation program is designed to ensure that total compensation paid to executive officers and key employees
is fair and reasonable. The Company has structured its executive compensation to motivate executives to achieve the business goals
set by the Company and reward the executives for achieving such goals. This philosophy also includes aligning and rewarding management
for increasing shareholder value.



The Compensation Committee,
through its executive compensation policy, strives to provide compensation rewards based upon corporate and individual performance.
It seeks to maintain a relatively simple compensation program in order to avoid the administrative costs which the Compensation
Committee believes are inherent in multiple complex compensation plans and agreements.



The Company does not
generally enter into employment, severance or change in control agreements with any of its executive officers. However, Josephine
Geiger, the Chief Accounting Officer has a pre-negotiated severance package included in her employment letter.



4











Ms. Geiger negotiated
a six (6) month severance package upon involuntary termination from the Company. Further details on the employment offer letters
are described under the heading “Employment Offer Letters”.



The determination
of compensation ranges for executive officers did not utilize benchmarking compensation packages with other retailers to analyze
the compensation of our executive officers during the past fiscal year. In setting compensation for our executive officers, the
Company has traditionally focused upon (i) the current compensation of the employee, (ii) past compensation for the employee and
for other individuals in the same role or similar roles at the Company and (iii) the Company’s operating results. Determination
of Ms. Syms’ compensation as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer for fiscal 2011 reflects the Company’s changed
circumstances upon filing for bankruptcy protection.



Consideration
of the Company's 2011 Stockholder Vote on Executive Compensation: At the Company’s 2011 Annual Meeting of Stockholders,
93.54% of the votes present and entitled to vote on the matter approved the Company’s fiscal 2010 executive compensation
program. The Company believes the outcome of this proposal evidences the commitment of the Compensation Committee to a dialogue
with the Company’s stockholders regarding key corporate governance issues, including matters related to executive compensation,
and the Compensation Committee’s dedication to implement an appropriate executive compensation program. In addition, at the
2011 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the stockholders voted to approve an annual holding of the advisory vote on the Company’s
executive compensation. Following the 2011 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the Board reviewed this vote and approved a resolution
to hold future, non-binding, advisory votes on executive compensation on an annual basis until the next required non-binding, advisory
vote of the frequency of the advisory vote on executive compensation.



Base Salary:The base salary for Company personnel is intended to provide competitive remuneration for services provided to the Company
over a one-year period and is designed to compensate an individual for his or her level of responsibility and performance.



Bonus:Bonuses
may be awarded based upon individual performance as measured against individual goals and objectives, combined with the Company’s
attainment of corporate goals and objectives. The Compensation Committee utilizes cash bonuses, when it feels a bonus is merited,
based on factors such as an executive’s individual performance and the Company’s performance relative to its past performance
and the performance of competitors. On January 17, 2012, the Honorable Kevin J. Carey presiding in the Court issued an order wherein
a wind-down employee retention plan was approved for the benefit of the remaining Syms Corp. employees.



Stock Option Plans:The Company’s Amended and Restated Stock Option and Appreciation Plan (the “Stock Option Plan”) allows for
the granting of incentive stock options, as defined in Section 422A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (as amended), non-qualified
stock options and stock appreciation rights. The Stock Option Committee froze the Stock Option Plan as of December 31, 2006 and
at such time, no further grants have been awarded under this plan.



There were no options
granted during fiscal 2011, and all options previously granted, but for the 97,500 stock options held by Ms. Syms, are no longer
outstanding. Further details on outstanding equity awards at the end of the 2011 fiscal year are shown under the heading "Outstanding
Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End" below.



Employment
Offer Letters: The Company does not generally enter into individual employment, severance or change in control agreements with
any of its executive officers. However, the Company has entered into an employment offer letter with Ms. Geiger, the Chief Accounting
Officer, dated as of September 2010 and amended as of July 2011. Ms. Geiger’s employment offer letter provides thatshe
is entitled to an annual base salary of $200,000 and an annual car allowance of $6,000. In addition,
in the event Ms. Geiger’s employment is terminated involuntarily, she would be entitled to a severance payment equal to six
months base salary. The Company also entered into an employment offer letter with Ms. Brandt, the General Counsel, dated October
2010 that provides for an annual base salary of $250,000 and an annual car allowance of $6,000.



Tax Considerations:
It is the responsibility of the Compensation Committee to address the issues raised by the tax laws which make certain non-performance-based
compensation to certain executives of public companies in excess of $1,000,000 non-deductible to the Company. In this regard, the
Compensation Committee must determine whether any actions with respect to this limit should be taken by the Company. At this time,
it is not anticipated that any executive officer will receive any compensation in excess of this limit, and this limit was not
exceeded in fiscal 2011.

Named Executive
Officers: In connection with the Company’s bankruptcy, the Company
entered into an agreement with A&M pursuant to which A&M provides the Company with management services. Mr. Feinberg,
our President, and Mr. Binkoski, our Chief Financial Officer, are employed by A&M and thus receive all their compensation
and benefits from A&M and not from us.

fiscal year, the Company did not grant stock options or other share-based awards.



Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End



The following table
provides information for Ms. Syms with respect to stock option awards outstanding at February 25, 2012. At that date, no other

Option Exercises During the

Fiscal Year Ended February 26, 2012





There were no options
exercised during fiscal 2011 by any of the executive officers named in the Summary Compensation Table. None of those officers own
any shares of restricted stock, restricted stock units or similar instruments that vested during fiscal 2011.



Retirement Benefits



Each of the Company’s
executive officers who were employed prior to December 31, 2006, is entitled to participate in the Syms Corp. defined benefit pension
plan on the same basis as all other eligible executives. Effective December 31, 2006, this plan was frozen and no additional benefits
have accrued.



Each of the Company’s
executive officers is entitled to participate in the Company’s defined contribution 401(k) plan on the same basis as all
other eligible employees. In addition, the Company also has a tax-qualified profit sharing plan to which the Company makes a discretionary
contribution based on its performance. All employees can participate in this plan once they become eligible. There were no contributions
made to the accounts of the executive officers during 2011.



Pension Plan



The Company sponsors
a defined benefit pension plan (the “Pension Plan”). A Pension Plan participant’s interest vests over a seven-year
period commencing in the third year at the rate of 20% after completing three years of employment and 20% for each year thereafter,
and is 100% vested after the completion of seven years of service. Benefit payments are made in the form of one of five annuity
payment options elected by the participant. Amounts in the table below are based on a straight life annuity. For the executive
officers named in the Summary Compensation Table who participate in the Pension Plan, compensation for purposes of the Pension
Plan generally corresponds to the amounts shown in the “Salary” column of the Summary Compensation Table.



Currently no more
than $245,000 (as adjusted from time to time by the Internal Revenue Service) of cash compensation may be taken into account in
calculating benefits payable under the Pension Plan. Ms. Syms was credited with 33 years of service at December 31, 2011. Benefits
under the Pension Plan are not subject to any deduction for social security or other offset amount. The annual retirement benefit
is reduced pro rata if the employee has completed less than 25 years of service. A participant is entitled to be paid his or her
benefits upon retirement at age 65. If a participant has completed at least 15 years of service, he or she may retire upon reaching
age 55 but the benefits he or she receives will be actuarially reduced to reflect the longer period during which he or she will
receive a benefit. A participant who leaves the Company for any reason other than death, disability or retirement will be entitled
to receive the vested portion of the benefit payable over different periods of time depending on the aggregate amount vested and
payment option elected.

The following table
sets forth, for each of the executive officers named in the Summary Compensation Table, information regarding the benefits payable
under the Pension Plan, which represents the only plan of the Company that provides for payments or other benefits at, following,
or in connection with an officer’s retirement.

Termination or Change in Control Payments





The Company does not
generally enter into individual employment, severance or change in control agreements with any of its executive officers. However,
the Company did enter into an offer letter agreement with Mr. Udasin. Pursuant to the letter agreement, Mr. Udasin, in exchange
for a general release of claims in favor of the Company, was provided severance payments over a six-month period that equaled $137,500.
In addition, the Company entered into an employment letter with Ms. Geiger that includes a provision for the payment of up to six
months of base salary as severance upon the involuntary termination of Ms. Geiger’s employment with the Company. In the event
the Company is required to pay Ms. Geiger severance per the terms of her employment letter, the amount to be paid by the Company
over the six month period would be $100,000. The Company does not otherwise have a formal severance policy with its executive officers
and determines on a case by case basis whether severance would be provided upon the termination of an executive officer.



Other than the arrangements described above for Ms. Geiger, there are no other contractual amounts that
may become payable or vested upon certain termination of employment of current employees or upon a change in control. As of the
end of fiscal 2011, all outstanding stock options were fully vested and exercisable. No additional payments or benefits will accrue
or be paid to the individual or the individual’s estate, if applicable, other than what has been accrued and vested in the
benefit plans discussed above under the heading “Retirement Benefits”.







Payments Made Upon
Voluntary or Involuntary Termination: If the employment of any of the named executive officers who have received stock options
or other long-term incentive awards is voluntarily or involuntarily terminated (other than upon death or disability, as described
below), then under our standard award agreements, the following will occur:



| | · | all unvested awards will be forfeited
and deemed cancelled immediately upon such termination; and
| | - | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | in the event of a termination without
“cause,” outstanding vested stock options will be forfeited and deemed cancelled and no longer exercisable on the earlier
of the 90th day following such termination or the expiration date of the option.
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



8









Payments Made Upon
Disability: If the employment of any of the named executive officers who have received stock options or other long-term incentive
awards is terminated due to disability, then under our standard award agreements, the following will occur:



| | · | outstanding vested stock options will
be forfeited and deemed cancelled and no longer exercisable on the earlier of 12 months following such termination or the expiration
date of the option; and
| | - | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | all restrictions underlying all unvested
shares of restricted stock will lapse and become immediately vested.
| | - | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Payments Made Upon
Death: If any of the named executive officers who have received stock options dies, then under our standard award agreements,
such death will not trigger an acceleration of the vesting of any stock options. Outstanding vested stock options will be forfeited
and deemed cancelled and no longer exercisable on the earlier of 12 months following death or the expiration date of the option.
If any of the named executive officers who have received shares of restricted stock dies, then under our standard award agreements,
upon death, all restrictions underlying all unvested shares of restricted stock will lapse and become immediately vested.



Potential Payments
Upon Change in Control: Under our standard equity award agreements, upon a “change in control,” all outstanding
stock options will immediately vest and be exercisable and all unvested shares of restricted stock will immediate vest. No additional
payments or benefits will accrue or be paid upon a change in control.

Item
13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS, RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE



As part of a proposed plan of reorganization of the Company, which requires approval of the Court, the
Company is considering a transaction with Ms. Syms, individually, as trustee of the Merns Trust, and as trustee of the Marcy Syms
Trust. In the proposed transaction, Ms. Syms, the Merns Trust and the Marcy Syms Trust would sell all of their shares to the Company.
The Company would then issue the same number of shares to shareholders of the Company who are accredited investors within the meaning
of Regulation D under the Exchange Act pursuant to a rights offering made in connection with the plan. The transaction would involve
approximately $20 million. This proposed transaction remains subject to approval by the parties thereto, the Board and the Court.
No definitive agreements relating to the proposed transaction have been executed at this time.



We do not have a formal
written policy regarding the review, approval or ratification of related party transactions. However, all of our employees, officers
and directors are required to comply with our code of business conduct and ethics, which addresses, among other things, actions
that are required when potential conflicts of interest arise. Specifically, if an employee, officer or director becomes aware of
a conflict of interest, he or she is required to bring it to the attention of a supervisor, manager or other appropriate personnel.
Pursuant to its charter, the Audit Committee shall review with management and the independent auditor and approve all transactions
or courses of dealing with parties related to the Company. Transactions with related parties must be entered into in good faith
on fair and reasonable terms that are no less favorable to us than those that would be available in a comparable transaction in
arm’s-length dealings with an unrelated third party.



Based on information
supplied to it by the Directors, the Board has determined that three of the current directors, Bernard H. Tenenbaum, Henry M. Chidgey
and Thomas E. Zanecchia, are “independent” under the listing standards of the NASDAQ Stock Market and the rules and
regulations promulgated by the SEC. The Board has made such determinations based on the fact that none of such persons have had,
or currently have, any material relationship with the Company or its affiliates or any executive officer of the Company or his
or her affiliates, that would impair their independence, including, without limitation, any commercial, industrial, banking, consulting,
legal, accounting, charitable or familial relationship.





11









The Board has determined
that the Company is a “controlled company” (as defined in the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules) based on the fact that more
than 50% of the voting power of the Company’s voting stock is held by Ms. Syms, individually and as trustee of the Merns
Trust, and as trustee of the Marcy Syms Trust, which entities hold Syms Corp. common shares. As a result, the Company is exempt
from the provisions of the NASDAQ governance standards requiring that (i) a majority of the board consist of independent directors,
(ii) the nominating committee be composed entirely of independent directors and (iii) the compensation committee be composed entirely
of independent directors.





Item
14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES



The Board has selected
BDO USA, LLP (“BDO”) as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Company for the fiscal year ending
February 23, 2013. BDO has audited the financial statements of the Company for more than the past five (5) years.



The following is a
summary of the fees for professional services rendered by BDO which were billed to us for the past two (2) fiscal years:



|                   |  | Fiscal year ended |        
|------------------ |  | ----------------- | -------
|Fee category       |  | February 25, 2012 |        
|Audit fees         |  | $                 | 585,104
|Audit-related fees |  | $                 | 30,000 
|Total fees         |  | $                 | 615,104
|                   |  |                   |        





Audit Fees:
Audit fees represent fees for professional services performed by BDO for the audit of our annual financial statements, audit of
internal controls and the review of our quarterly financial statements, as well as services that are normally provided in connection
with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements.



Audit-Related Fees:
Audit-related fees represent fees for assurance and related services performed by BDO that are reasonably related to the performance
of the audit or review of our financial statements. These fees were for employee benefit related services in each of the past two
fiscal years.



Pre-approval Policies
and Procedures: The Audit Committee Charter adopted by the Board requires that, among other things, the Audit Committee must
pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services rendered by the independent registered accounting firm. These services
may include audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services, including services relating to compliance
with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The independent registered public accounting firm and management are required
to periodically report to the Audit Committee regarding the extent of services provided by the independent registered public accounting
firm in accordance with this pre-approval, and the fees for the services performed to date. The Audit Committee may also pre-approve
particular services on a case-by-case basis. All services provided during the past two fiscal years were pre-approved by the Audit
Committee.



The Company and the
Audit Committee have considered whether other non-audit services by BDO are compatible with maintaining the independence of BDO
in its audit of the Company.
