OFFICE DEPOT PRICES $250 MILLION OF SENIOR SECURED NOTES DUE 2019

Boca Raton, Fla., March 9, 2012 — Office Depot (NYSE: ODP), a leading global provider of office supplies and services that helps customers save time, announced today that it has priced an offering of $250 million of 9.75% senior secured notes due 2019 (the “Notes”) at an issue price of 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes. The net proceeds from the sale of the Notes, together with cash on hand and borrowings under the senior secured asset based revolving credit facility, will be used to fund (or replenish cash that has been used to fund) the tender offer for Office Depot’s outstanding 6.25% Senior Notes due 2013, to pay fees and expenses associated with the private offering of the Notes and for general corporate purposes.

The Notes will be offered and sold to qualified institutional buyers in the United States pursuant to Rule 144A and outside the United States pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933. The Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior secured basis by each of Office Depot’s existing and future domestic subsidiaries that guarantee the senior secured asset based revolving credit facility.

The sale of the Notes is expected to be consummated on March 14, 2012, subject to market and other conditions.

The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to U.S. persons, except to qualified institutional buyers in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A and to certain persons in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to purchase the Notes or any other securities, and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. This press release is being issued pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 135c under the Securities Act of 1933.
