1 - Blockbuster leases the substantial majority of its stores. Accordingly, real property taxes paid pursuant to such lease obligations are not reported herein as such payments are captured within leases payable.

2 - The Real Property and Personal Property taxes are considered “postpetition” based off of when the payment is assessed by the taxing authority.

The detail of the AP - Legal and Professional Fees can be seen on MOR-6. The bar date of 6/15/11 for administrative claims required all other AP to be reclassified to liabilities subject to comromise.
