(b) On August 19, 2002, each of the Principal Executive Officer, Steven A. Burd, and Principal Financial Officer, Vasant M. Prabhu, of the Registrant submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission sworn statements pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission Order No. 4-460. Attached as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 are copies of each of these statements.
The original sworn statements were submitted on August 14, 2002 but made reference to the “Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2002 of Safeway Inc.” This was a typographical error and should read “fiscal year ended December 29, 2001.” The statements attached as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 have been corrected.
The foregoing information, including the exhibits, is not being filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and is not to be incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company, whether made before or after the date hereof, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.
