        The Compensation Committee'sprocess includes executive sessions where the Committee meets alone, or with itsconsultant or other advisors, without the presence of management. The Committeehas exclusive authority to determine the compensation of our named executiveofficers, as well as to make equity grants to other executives who are subjectto Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, pursuant to Rule 16a-2.The Committee also exercises authority to determine the compensation for otherindividuals who report directly to our Chief Executive Officer.

- direct the grant of awards to persons who are eligible to receive awards      under our 1999 Stock Incentive Plan in connection with either the hiring      or promotion of such persons and
- determine the number of shares covered by such grants, the types and      terms of any such options and stock appreciation rights to be granted and      the exercise prices of such options and stock appreciation rights, and the      terms and conditions of vesting and the purchase price, if any, of any      such grants of restricted stock.

        The members of the CompensationCommittee are Mr. Gittis, Mr. Kerrey and Mr. Crotty. No member of theCompensation Committee has a relationship that would constitute an interlockingrelationship with our executive officers or our other directors.

Compensation Discussion & Analysis
*Compensation Program Objectives*
        The objectives of our executivecompensation program are to:
- Allow us to successfully attract, retain, and motivate executives who    enable us to achieve high standards of consumer satisfaction and operational    excellence and
- Hold our executives accountable and offer rewards for successful business    results and shareholder value creation.

        Except as otherwise noted, thedescription of the compensation program provided here applies to all of ournamed executive officers.

*Oversight of Our Executive Compensation Program*
        The Compensation Committee of theBoard of Directors (the "Committee") oversees and administers ourexecutive compensation program and establishes the compensation of our executiveofficers. The Committee's responsibilities are detailed in its charter, whichcan be found on our website at www.jny.com/Our Company/Corporate Governance.

        The Committee retains Mercer HumanResource Consulting, an outside compensation consultant, to assist it infulfilling its responsibilities. Mercer's work for the Committee includesbenchmarking the total compensation of our named executive officers relative toa peer group discussed below, assessing the 

- 6 -

 Company's financial performanceagainst the peer group, providing advice on how to structure cash and equityincentives, and providing guidance on changing regulatory requirements and bestpractices. Mercer reports directly to the Committee.
*Compensation Benchmarking Process*
        The Company's policy is to payexecutive officers named in the 2006 Summary Compensation Table herein (the"named executive officers"), other than Mr. Kimmel, competitively,taking into account the Company's objectives for annual and long-termperformance. The Committee believes this helps to achieve the objective ofattracting, retaining, and motivating executives in the highly competitiveretail and apparel industry. Because a large portion of total executivecompensation is provided in the form of incentives that are contingent onperformance, actual compensation of these executives will vary above and belowthe targeted position, depending on Company financial results and individualperformance. In periods of strong performance, actual compensation will exceedthe targeted position. If a downturn in performance occurs, the Committeeexpects actual compensation to be reduced below the guideline.

        The Committee regularly reviewsdata on industry compensation levels and financial performance to assesscompetitive levels of compensation for our executive officers and the alignmentbetween compensation and Company financial performance. In January 2007, theCommittee, with the assistance of its outside consultant, compared the totalcompensation of our named executive officers and the financial and totalshareholder return performance of the Company against the compensation andperformance of a peer group.

        The peer group was comprised of 16publicly traded companies which included (i) direct competitors that manufactureapparel and footwear, (ii) department stores that represent our largestcustomers, and (iii) specialty retailers of footwear and apparel, particularlyspecialty retailers who design and manufacture their own products, because theirbusinesses are comparable to or compete directly with facets of our business.The companies in the peer group were:
Apparel/FootwearManufacturing Companies Department Stores Specialty RetailersBrown Shoe Company, Inc.        Coach, Inc.        Hanesbrands, Inc.        Kellwood Company        Liz Claiborne, Inc.        Phillips-Van Heusen Corporation        Polo Ralph Lauren Corporation        VF CorporationDillard's, Inc        Nordstrom, Inc.        Saks Inc.Abercrombie & Fitch Co.        AnnTaylor Stores Corporation        Foot Locker, Inc.        Limited Brands, Inc.        The Talbots, Inc.
*Components of the Executive Compensation Program-Description of Elementsand Evaluation Process*
        In 2006, the executivecompensation program in place for Mr. Kimmel, our founder and chairman, wascomposed primarily of base salary. In addition, Mr. Kimmel participated in ouremployee benefit plans and received certain perquisites, as described below. Mr.Kimmel relinquished the role of chief executive officer in 2002, after which Mr.Boneparth was promoted to serve as chief executive officer. During the periodthat Mr. Kimmel has served only as chairman, the Committee's approach to Mr.Kimmel's compensation has been to continue his base salary, pursuant to theterms of his employment contract with the Company. His base salary has not beenadjusted since 2001. Mr. Kimmel last received an annual cash incentive in 2005for performance in 2004. Since then, Mr. Kimmel has not received a bonus, and hehas not received an equity grant since 2001, enabling the Committee to increasethe bonuses and equity available to other members of the management team.

        Ms. Brown's employment with usterminated in April 2006. Ms. Brown received a termination payment, as reportedin the 2006 Summary Compensation Table, consistent with the terms of heremployment agreement, as well as salary, restricted stock awards and certainemployee benefits during the portion of the

- 7 -

year that she was employed by us.Additionally, she will receive future payments, which are discussed herein underthe heading "Potential Payments and Benefits Upon Termination ofEmployment."

        In March 2007, Mr. Sotos resignedfrom the Company, and as a result, received payment of his salary and benefitsonly through the date of his termination of employment. Upon Mr. Sotos'resignation, we asked Mr. Card to resume the responsibilities of the ChiefFinancial Officer, in addition to serving as our Chief Operating Officer, andMr. Card agreed.

        The current named executiveofficers, including Mr. Boneparth, have a compensation program that includes thefollowing components:
- Base salary,
- Annual incentives,
- Long-term incentives in the form of performance-contingent and/or    time-based restricted stock,
- Employee benefits and
- Perquisites

        The structure of each of thesecomponents, as reported in the 2006 Summary Compensation Table, is describedbelow.

Base Salaries. Base salaries are used to compensate our executives fortheir position and level of responsibility. Each of our named executive officershas an employment agreement with us that defines a minimum annual salary for theexecutive. The Committee reviews base salaries annually and may adjust salariesabove the minimum, depending on individual performance, impact on the business,tenure and experience, changes in job responsibilities and market practice.

        In 2006, only two of the namedexecutive officers received base salary increases. Both Ms. Cote' and Mr. Sotosreceived base salary increases to reflect their promotion to new positions withincreased responsibilities. In January 2007, Mr. Sotos received an additionalincrease to $600,000. Salaries for our current named executive officers areshown below:
Named Executive Officer2006 Salary2007 SalaryPeter Boneparth      Wesley R. Card      Lynne F. Cote'$2,500,000      $1,100,000      $1,000,000$2,500,000      $1,100,000      $1,000,000
Annual Cash Incentives. The Executive Annual Incentive Plan wasadopted in 1999 and approved by our stockholders. Under its provisions,executive officers are eligible to participate in an "Incentive Pool,"which equals not more than 3.0% of our pre-tax income (as adjusted according tothe Incentive Plan). During the first quarter of each year, the CompensationCommittee allocates a percentage of the Incentive Pool to each participant thatdetermines the maximum cash incentive that may be paid, subject to an overallindividual maximum award of $3.0 million. The Committee retains the discretionto reduce these awards but may not increase them. This approach satisfies thetax requirements for performance-based compensation and allows us to deductannual cash incentives paid under the Incentive Plan.

        In 2006, the Committee continuedto revise the process used to determine annual cash incentive awards. For 2006,target annual cash incentive awards were established for Mr. Boneparth and Mr.Card, who were named executive officers at the beginning of the year; consistentwith recent past practice, none was set for Mr. Kimmel. The target awards wereestablished so that total annual cash compensation of these executives would beroughly comparable to the 75th percentile of the peer group when current basesalary levels are taken into account. The target awards are shown below:

        The Committee worked with oursenior management and the Committee's compensation consultant to establishguidelines for the percentage of target awards that could be paid for 2006performance. Overall Jones performance goals were established, which reflected2006 budgeted performance. We selected net income and operating cash flow asmeasures, because they indicate how successful we are at selling our products,operating efficiently, and maintaining a disciplined approach to inventorymanagement during the year. For 2006, the budgeted goal for net income was$255.8 million, and the budgeted goal for operating cash flow was $393.0million. We assigned a 50% weighting to each measure. We believed the budgetedperformance goals constituted realistic but challenging goals.

        A matrix that equally weighted theoverall corporate financial achievement against budget on these two measures andthe assessment of the individual performance of the executive was alsoestablished. This matrix (shown below) provided the Committee with a guideline,which allowed for a payout of up to 125% of target, subject to the availableIncentive Pool. The matrix also specified that no annual cash incentive awardswould be paid as to each performance goal if actual financial results in 2006fell below 90% of that performance goal.

        In 2006, the Company had a netloss of $144.1 million, created primarily by the required recognition of asubstantial non-cash charge for trademark and goodwill impairments. Because theCompany had a net loss, no Incentive Pool was funded under the 1999 IncentivePlan, and the goals for net income established for 2006 were not met. However,actual operating cash flow was $423.9 million, which exceeded the operating cashflow goal set for 2006 by 8%.

        Because the Company reported aloss, the Committee decided not to award Mr. Boneparth any bonus for 2006. TheCommittee did determine that the other named executive officers should beawarded a portion of their bonuses to recognize the Company's surpassing ofoperating cash flow goals, as well as individual contributions. For example, Ms.Cote''s business unit exceeded budgeted operating income goals. Mr. Card led the successful restructuring efforts and was integral to the successfulongoing implementation of a new enterprise resource planning system. Mr. Sotoswas newly promoted to his position during the year. The bonuses that wereawarded to named executives officers are reported in the 2006 SummaryCompensation Table.

        At the 2007 annual meeting ofstockholders, we will be seeking stockholder approval of the 2007 ExecutiveAnnual Cash Incentive Plan. When we designed the new plan, we strove to create aplan that more closely links bonus payouts to Company performance.

        In the first quarter of 2007, weestablished financial performance goals for 2007 cash incentive awards. Forexecutives with corporate responsibility, these goals are based 50% on 2007 netincome and 50% on 2007 operating cash flow, excluding the impact of unusual,unplanned, non-recurring or extraordinary items or other occurrences affectingthe Company. For executives with business unit responsibility, 100% of the cashincentive awards will be based on the business unit's 2007 operatingcontribution margin, defined as operating income before corporate overheadallocation. The goals are consistent with the Company's budget and, webelieve, are rigorous but attainable. We will assess our actual Companyperformance relative to these goals in the first quarter of 2008. The percentageof target awards which may be paid as to each of the 2007 financial performancegoals is shown in the table below.

Note: Interpolation applies for intermediate points

        In certain instances that resultfrom extraordinary circumstances where performance is less than 90% of budget,if the Company achieves 75% of either budgeted net income or operating cash flowgoals or if the executive's business unit achieves 75% of its budgetedcontribution, then the Committee may pay up to 25% of annual bonus targets torecognize individual performance. In addition, the Committee may use discretionto reduce or eliminate any award based on its assessment of business resultscompared to performance goals or other factors.

        The 2007 target award amounts forMr. Boneparth, Mr. Card and Ms. Cote' are shown in the table below.

The target award for our chief executive officer is expressed as a dollaramount rather than as a percentage of base to recognize that his salary, whichis governed by his employment agreement, is above average, relative to the peergroup. In 2007, maximum awards were increased from 125% to 150% of the targetamounts shown above.

       Long-Term Incentive Awards.Long-term incentive awards are granted to align our executives with ourstockholders by focusing on our stock price performance and other indicators oflong-term performance and to retain their services through multi-year vestingprovisions. Since 2003, most of the long-term incentive awards made to namedexecutive officers have been performance-contingent restricted stock awards.Although we continue to have the ability to grant stock options, we have usedrestricted stock because:
- Restricted stock is a better retention device,
- Fewer shares are required, allowing us to better manage dilution and
- Awards are subject to less volatility, given the changing business    conditions facing our industry.

        Restricted stock grants aretypically granted to named executive officers annually at a CompensationCommittee meeting in February or March at a date convenient for the members ofthe Committee. Last year the Committee approved grants of restricted stock onMarch 6, 2006. The awards were valued at $29.44 per share, the fair market valueon the date of grant, and appear in the Grants of Plan-Based Awards in 2006table herein.

        The vesting of the restrictedstock awards in 2006 granted to Messrs. Boneparth and Card was contingent onboth performance and time. 50% of the shares were eligible to vest if theCompany achieved the 2006 net income budget. The remaining 50% were eligible tovest if the Company achieved the 2006 operating cash flow budget. If actual netincome or operating cash flow results were less than 90% of the targetedamounts, the corresponding shares would be forfeited. For achievement of between90% and 100% of the targeted amounts, a proportionate number of shares would beeligible to vest.

        If the financial tests weresatisfied, the shares eligible for vesting would vest 100% on the secondbusiness day after public release of fourth quarter financial results for 2008(i.e., approximately three years after the date of grant). Consequently, theultimate value of these awards depends on stock price performance throughmid-February 2009. In 2006, the Committee made the vesting of restricted sharescontingent on 2006 annual performance, because the Committee wanted to providean additional incentive to achieve the 2006 budget, after results fell belowbudget in 2005. Awards granted in 2005 were contingent on achieving operatingcash flow goals that extend through 2007.

        Although the Company outperformedits operating cash flow goal, we did not achieve our net income target for 2006.As a result, Messrs. Boneparth and Card forfeited 50% of the restricted stockawards granted in 2006, or 25,000 shares and 12,500 shares, respectively. Therestricted shares awarded to Mr. Sotos prior to his appointment as ChiefFinancial Officer and at his promotion were not subject to performance targets.They would have vested in February 2009 but were forfeited in March 2007 as aresult of his resignation. Ms. Cote''s restricted shares were not subject toperformance targets and contain a similar three-year cliff time vestingrequirement.

        The Committee uses discretion todetermine the size of restricted stock awards. Mr. Boneparth recommends awardsfor the other named executive officers, subject to Committee review andapproval. The Committee determines the number of shares to award to Mr.Boneparth. Factors that influence the Committee's decisions include:
- the Company's performance in the prior year,
- the performance of individual executives,
- the size of previous equity awards and
- total compensation relative to peer group norms.

        For the awards made in March 2006,the Committee reduced the number of shares granted by approximately 50% from theprior year, because 2005 net income and 2005 operating cash flow were belowbudget.

        No stock options were granted tonamed executive officers in 2006.

        Following a review of ourexecutive compensation program, we modified our long-term incentive practice for2007. We defined target guidelines to govern the size of restricted stockawards. Going forward, we will target restricted stock award values for namedexecutive officers with corporate responsibilities at approximately 2X annualcash incentive target awards. Target restricted stock award values for namedexecutive officers with business unit responsibilities will be set atapproximately 1.5X annual cash incentive target awards. We feel this creates aclear emphasis on long-term performance instead of short-term performance and iscompetitive with market practice. 100% of the restricted stock granted to thenamed executive officers with corporate responsibility, Messrs. Boneparth andCard, was performance-based. For the named executive officer with business unit responsibility, Ms. Cote', aportion of the restricted stock granted was performance-based, while theremaining amount vests based on continued service to encourage retention. Therestricted stock awards granted to these executives during the first quarter of2007 are shown in the following table.

Compensation Mix. For 2007, the Company does not have policies thatdefine specific percentage allocations for performance-based andnon-performance-based compensation, or cash and non-cash compensation. TheCompany does, however, intend to deliver a substantial portion of totalcompensation in the form of performance-based cash and equity incentives to achieve its objective ofholding executives accountable and offering rewards for successful businessresults and shareholder value creation. As a result, recognizing that individualvariations and year-to-year variations will occur, more than 50% of the targettotal compensation of the named executive officers associated with the 2007grants is composed of performance-based

Employee Benefits. As a general rule, we do not provide specialbenefits to senior executives. The named executive officers participate in thesame benefit plans, including term life insurance, health and disabilityinsurance, available to all full-time, salaried employees. We offer oneretirement plan, a qualified 401(k) plan, to all employees, including the namedexecutive officers. We do not sponsor a supplemental executive retirement plan.

        We also pay the premiums onadditional term life insurance with an aggregate benefit of $7 million andadditional long-term disability insurance with an aggregate monthly benefit of$15,000, for the benefit of Mr. Boneparth, which was negotiated as part of hisemployment agreement.

        In connection with Mr. Card'sagreement to resume the role of Chief Financial Officer in March 2007 and inrecognition of his additional responsibilities, we adopted a supplementalretirement arrangement for him, which is described under "Employment andCompensation Arrangements" herein.

Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan. Employees with base salaries of$100,000 or more are eligible to participate in our Deferred Compensation Plan.The plan allows them to defer, on a pre-tax basis, with limited cost to theCompany, the receipt of up to 90% of both salary and annual bonus into a savingsaccount. We adopted the plan because it allows executives to save for retirementor other needs on a tax-advantaged basis and because similar benefits areoffered by competitors. A summary of the terms of the plan and informationconcerning the named executive officers' participation in the plan are includedherein under the caption "2006 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation."

Perquisites and Other Personal Benefits. We have provided certainperquisites to the named executive officers, as summarized in footnote 4 to the2006 Summary Compensation Table herein. Additionally, current named executiveofficers are eligible to receive the same perquisites available to all of oursenior executives. Each of these perquisites is described below:
*- Executive Level Merchandise Discounts : All employees and members of  the Board of Directors may purchase products in Company-owned stores (other  than Barneys stores) at 40% off the original retail price or at the then  current price, whichever is lower. All Barneys employees, certain senior  executives, including each of the named executive officers, and members of the  Board of Directors, receive a discount of 35% on purchases at any Barneys  store. All other employees receive a discount of 35% on purchases at Barneys  outlet stores. Merchandise discounts are a common benefit in the retail  industry, since we can provide our employees with merchandise at minimal net  cost to us.     
Cars and Allowances
: We provide a car and driver for Mr. Kimmel and acar allowance to Messrs. Boneparth and Card. We had also provided a carallowance to Mr. Sotos. We also provide car services for Mr. Card in New YorkCity. We provide the car and driver to Mr. Kimmel because it is a long-standingpractice at our Company and is in recognition of his special contribution to theCompany over time. For the other executives, we have provided allowances for many  years as a stipend that supplements salary.

- 13 -
*- Housing Allowance : We rent an apartment in New York City for Mr.    Card's use because his primary residence is not within commuting distance    from our New York headquarters or our facilities in Bristol. The allowance    was a negotiated condition to his retention.       
Tax Gross-Up Payments
: We pay a tax gross-up to cover the taxable  income attributable to Mr. Boneparth's car allowance and to Mr. Card's  apartment. This allows them to actually receive the full benefit that we  intended to deliver.   
     

        In addition to the benefits described above, all holders of restrictedshares, including the named executive officers, are paid dividends. Dividends onrestricted shares are paid at the same rate and time as dividends paid to allshareholders.
*Employment Agreements*
        Each named executive officer hasan employment agreement with the Company. The agreements define the executive'sposition, stipulate a minimum base salary and provide certain benefits undervarious termination scenarios. The agreements contain covenants that limit theexecutive's ability to compete or solicit our employees or customers for definedperiods. The covenants also require the executive to keep informationconfidential. The provisions of the agreements are described in greater detailherein under the heading "Employment and Compensation Arrangements."

        On balance, we believe thatemployment agreements benefit stockholders, because they allow us to compete forexecutive talent more effectively. Contracts are standard practice in theapparel industry, and we need to be well positioned to hire new talent andretain our talent over time. We believe that the provisions of our contracts arestandard compared to industry norms, including the termination provisions. Wealso believe that the restrictive covenants are beneficial to us.

Change in Control. The employment agreements with Mr. Boneparth, Mr. Cardand Mr. Kimmel contain provisions that provide for severance in the event oftermination in connection with a change in control (a double trigger provision)and for the accelerated vesting of stock options and restricted stock at anychange in control.

        The elements of the change incontrol benefits, including the severance multiples and the accelerated vestingprovisions, are consistent with normal market practice. More lucrative benefits,such as severance benefits upon a single trigger, walk-away rights, and excisetax gross-ups, are not provided.

        We believe these benefits help toattract and retain executive talent. Further, in the event of a change incontrol, such benefits preserve the neutrality of our executives throughout thetransaction, enhance the value of the entity to the buyer by keeping theexecutive team in place, and help focus our executives on the business andstockholder interests, rather than on their individual positions and financialsecurity.
*Material Tax and Accounting Implications*
        Section 162(m) of the InternalRevenue Code has a $1 million annual tax deduction limit on compensation theCompany pays to the chief executive officer and the four other most highlycompensated executive officers. This limit does not apply to"performance-based" compensation, as defined by the Internal RevenueCode and related regulations. Where practical, the Committee designs programs sothat compensation paid to our named executive officers is fully deductible. TheCommittee believes, however, that stockholders' interests may be best servedby offering compensation that is not fully deductible where appropriate toattract, retain, and motivate talented officers. Bonuses awarded under the 1999Incentive Plan are designed to meet the criteria for tax deductibility, but in2006, the Board determined that it was in the best interest of stockholders topay bonuses to Mr. Card and Ms. Cote' outside the plan. The new Executive AnnualCash Incentive Plan which will be presented for stockholder approval at the 2007annual meeting of stockholders has also been designed with the expectation thatbonuses to be paid under the plan will meet the criteria for tax deductibility under Section 162(m). Gains realized by the executives fromthe exercise of stock options and the vesting of performance contingentrestricted stock are also expected to be tax deductible.

- 14 -
*Stock Ownership Guidelines for Executives*
        In December 2004, the Committeeadopted Stock Ownership Guidelines for Executives (the "Guidelines")to ensure that the named executive officers have an ongoing ownership stake inthe Company, linking their interests to those of the shareholders and enhancingtheir commitment to our future. Executives have five years to meet theGuidelines. The Guidelines stipulate that the officers beneficially own sharesof common stock equal to a multiple of their annual salary. The guidelines are3x base salary for the Chief Executive Officer, 1.5x base salary for the ChiefOperating and Financial Officer, and 1x base salary for all other namedexecutive officers.

        Included in the definition ofshare ownership are unvested shares of restricted stock and any shares ownedoutright, including shares acquired upon stock option exercise. Unexercisedstock options do not count toward meeting the Guidelines.

        In addition, our policy statesthat shares acquired by a named executive officer from exercising stock optionsgranted after the effective date of adoption of the Guidelines (net of sharessold to satisfy tax obligations arising from the exercise) should be retainedfor at least 12 months.

Under its provisions, annual incentive        awards payable in cash (unless otherwise determined by the Compensation        Committee of the Board of Directors) for a particular fiscal year may be        granted to executive officers who are deemed "covered        employees" as defined in the AIP and who are approved by the        Compensation Committee for participation. For any fiscal year, the        aggregate awards, or "Incentive Pool," available under the AIP        equals not more than 3% of our pre-tax income (as adjusted according to        the terms of the AIP). During the first quarter of each year, the        Compensation Committee allocates a percentage of the Incentive Pool to        each participant, which determines the maximum incentive that may be        awarded, subject to an overall individual maximum award of $3.0 million.        As discussed under "Compensation Discussion and Analysis -        Components of the Executive Compensation Program - Description of        Elements and Evaluation Process - Annual Cash Incentives," we had a        net loss of $144.1 million for 2006, and as a result, the Incentive Pool        was not funded for 2006. Accordingly, no non-equity incentive plan        awards were granted to the named executive officers for 2006 under the        AIP.(2)Represents grants of shares of        restricted common stock under our 1999 Stock Incentive Plan. During the        vesting period, the executives are the beneficial owners of the shares        of restricted stock and possess all voting and dividend rights.        Dividends are paid on shares of restricted stock at the same rate and at        the same time as dividends are paid to all holders of common stock.        During 2006, the quarterly dividend rate was $0.12 per share for        dividends paid prior to December 1, 2006 and $0.14 per share thereafter.(3)Based on the closing price of        our common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the date of grant.(4)The restricted stock granted        to Mr. Boneparth and Mr. Card on March 6, 2006 was subject to Company        financial performance and time-based vesting conditions. 50% of the        shares were eligible to vest if we achieved the 2006 net income budget,        and the remaining 50% were eligible to vest if we achieved the 2006        operating cash flow budget. If actual 2006 net income or operating cash        flow results were less than 90% of the targeted amounts, the        corresponding shares would be forfeited. For achievement of between 90%        and 100% of the targeted amounts, a proportionate number of shares would        be eligible to vest. If the financial tests were satisfied, the shares        eligible for vesting would vest 100% on the second business day        immediately following our public announcement of fourth quarter        financial results for 2008. We outperformed our 2006 operating cash flow        target but did not achieve our 2006 net income target. As a

 result, Mr. Boneparth and Mr.        Card each forfeited 50% of their awards, and 25,000 shares and 12,500        shares, respectively, were cancelled on February 8, 2007.(5)The grants shown in the table        for Mr. Sotos were forfeited as of March 27, 2007, as a result of his        termination of employment with us.(6)Vesting restrictions lapse on        the second business day immediately following our public announcement of        fourth quarter financial results for 2008.(7)The restricted stock award        granted to Ms. Brown on March 6, 2006 was subject to the same Company        financial performance and time-based vesting conditions applicable to        the awards to Mr. Boneparth and Mr. Card described in footnote (4) to        this table. However, Ms. Brown's shares became fully vested upon        termination of her employment with us on April 17, 2006.

2006 Pension Benefits
        In connection with prior acquisitions, we assumed certain defined benefitpension plans. Mr. Sotos participates in the Pension Plan for Associates of NineWest Group Inc. None of our other named executive officers is eligible toparticipate in any of our defined benefit pension plans.

Brown**----         (1)         The Pension Plan        for Associates of Nine West Group Inc. is a noncontributory, defined        benefit cash balance plan that expresses retirement benefits as an        account balance based on:-An opening account balance as        of January 1, 1997,-Service credits (equal to a        percentage of a participant's compensation paid during the plan year,        based on the participant's age and years of credited service on the        first day of the plan year), earned before February 15, 1999 and-Interest credits (based on the        monthly equivalent of the five-year U.S. Treasury Bill interest rate        (weighted for constant maturities as in effect on December 1st of the        previous plan year), plus 0.25%).After February 15,        1999, the account balance increases each year through interest credits        only. Interest credits are allocated to a participant's account until        the participant retires and receives a benefit. The
- 21 -
accrued benefit may        not be less than a participant's accrued benefit as of December 31, 1996        under the formula contained in the 1996 version of the plan.
Participants are 100% vested in their accrued benefit        after completion of five years of vesting service or, if they are active        participants and reach age 65, regardless of years of vesting service.

A participant who terminates employment is entitled to        receive his vested accrued benefit upon attainment of normal retirement        (age 65). Additionally, a participant may elect to receive benefits upon        satisfying the criteria for early retirement (upon the later of        termination of employment or attainment of age 55 with five years of        credited service).

The normal form of benefit is a single life annuity        for unmarried participants or a qualified joint and one-half survivor        annuity for married participants. Subject to certain notice and waiver        procedures, each participant may elect to receive his retirement benefit        in one of the other following forms: (1) lump sum payment; (2) joint and        survivor annuity; (3) five-year certain and continuous annuity; or (4)        10-year certain and continuous annuity.(2)Includes five        years of credited service with Nine West Group Inc. prior to our        acquisition of Nine West on June 15, 1999.(3)Reflects the        amount of Mr. Sotos' accumulated benefit obligation as of December 31,        2006 recognized for financial reporting purposes, assuming retirement at        age 65, an interest crediting rate of 4.0% and a discount rate of 6.11%.        Assuming early retirement at age 55, Mr. Sotos' accumulated benefit        obligation as of December 31, 2006 is $5,141. His account balance as of        December 31, 2006 was $7,136.

        The Deferred Compensation Planallows a select group of management or highly compensated employees who aredesignated by the committee that administers the plan to defer, on a pre-taxbasis, receipt of up to 90% of salary and up to 90% of annual bonus, in anaccount which is credited with a rate of return based on hypothetical investmentoptions selected by the participant from an extensive menu under the plan. Thecommittee has designated employees earning a base salary of $100,000 or more,including the named executive officers, as eligible to participate in the plan.Participant deferrals and related earnings are fully vested upon contribution.However, the plan is not funded; account balances are simply bookkeeping entriesthat record our unsecured contractual commitment to pay the amounts due underthe plan. A rabbi trust has been established under the plan to hold assetsseparate from our other assets for the purpose of paying future participantbenefit obligations. The assets of the rabbi trust are available to our generalcreditors in the event of our insolvency.

        Investment selections may bechanged by the participant on a daily basis. The Deferred Compensation Plan doesnot provide above-market or preferential earnings. The investment creditingoptions and their one-year rates of return as of December 31, 2006 are asfollows:

In        addition, the chair of the Audit Committee receives a retainer of        $10,000, and the chairs of other committees receive a retainer of        $5,000.(2)Each non-management director        may elect to defer all or a portion of his or her annual retainer and        meeting attendance fees under the Jones Apparel Group, Inc. Deferred        Compensation Plan for Outside Directors until the earlier of his or her        termination of service on the Board or a date selected by the director        under the Plan. The Plan does not provide for above-market or        preferential earnings. Each director can choose to invest the funds in        either of the following two types of hypothetical investments:*Share Units. This type of        investment allows the director to invest his or her compensation in        hypothetical shares of Jones common stock based on the market price of        the common stock at the time the compensation would have been paid.        Hypothetical dividends are "reinvested" in additional share        units based on the market price of the common stock at the time        dividends are paid on the common stock. All share units are paid out in        cash.
*Cash Units. Funds in this        type of account are credited with interest monthly based on U.S.        Treasury bill rates using the Treasury constant maturities daily        "1-year" rate.

Messrs. Kerrey, Crotty and Questrom previously elected        to have their fees deferred in the form of share units, and Mr. Kamens        previously elected to have his fees deferred in the form of cash units.(3)As of January 2005, each        non-management director receives an annual grant of 3,000 shares of        restricted common stock, with new non-management directors receiving an        initial grant of 6,000 shares of restricted common stock. The restricted        stock awards have a value based on the fair market values of our common        stock on the effective date of the grant and vest in equal installments        over three years. The awards are made from shares available under our        1999 Stock Incentive Plan.
