Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Foot Locker 401(k) Plan Administrator:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the Foot Locker 401(k) Plan (the "Plan") as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental Schedule H, line 4i - Schedule of Assets (Held at End of Year) as of December 31, 2007 is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan’s management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

FOOT LOCKER 401(k) PLAN

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2007 and 2006

(1)       Description of Plan
 
  The following description of the Foot Locker 401(k) Plan (the "Plan") provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan document for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions.
 
  The Board of Directors of Foot Locker, Inc. (the “Company”) appointed MG Trust Company as the trustee of the Plan. BISYS Retirement Services is the record keeper and Russell Investment Group provides investment management services to the Plan effective February 1, 2007. Oppenheimer Funds provided investment management services to the Plan and Merrill Lynch was the investment advisor through January 31, 2007.
 
  (a)       General
 
    The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering generally all U.S. employees of the Company and its affiliates that adopt the Plan, with the exception of the employees whose primary place of employment is in Puerto Rico. Eligible employees are those who have attained age twenty-one and completed one year of service consisting of at least 1,000 hours. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"). The Plan became effective as of January 1, 1996.
 
  (b) Contributions
 
    The Plan provides for automatic revocable enrollment in the Plan at a contribution rate of 3% and 2% in 2007 and 2006, respectively, of pre-tax annual compensation for participants who meet the eligibility requirements. Effective January 1, 2007, the initial automatic enrollment percentage shall automatically increase each year in 1% increments up to a maximum of 5%. The maximum allowable salary reduction contribution by a participant is 40% of pre-tax annual compensation, as defined in the Plan document. Participants may elect to change their contribution rate and salary reduction agreement as often as daily. In accordance with the Tax Reform Act of 1986, the maximum amount that a participant may contribute under the Plan is $15,500 for 2007 and $15,000 for 2006. Participants may also roll over certain amounts representing distributions from other qualified retirement plans prior to becoming eligible to participate in the Plan. However, additional contributions cannot be made until the completion of one year of service consisting of at least 1,000 hours. For any participant who (i) has completed 1,000 hours of service during the Plan year and is actively employed by the Company on the last day of the Plan year or (ii) during the Plan year, has died, has become disabled or retired on or after normal retirement age, the Company also contributes 25% of such participant's pre-tax contributions to the Plan up to the first 4% of the participant's compensation earned during the Plan year. Matching contributions, at the Company’s option, are made either in shares of the Company's common stock ("Foot Locker Shares") or in cash to be invested in Foot Locker Shares. Effective January 1, 2007, participants that are invested in the Foot Locker Stock Fund can diversify their matching contributions into any of the other investment options available under the Plan at any time. Matching contributions for 2007 and 2006 were made entirely in Foot Locker Shares and were recorded at fair market value on the date of the Plan’s year-end. Additional contributions may be made at the discretion of the Company and are subject to certain limitations. No additional contributions were made for 2007 and 2006. Participants who have attained the age of 50 may make catch-up contributions of up to $5,000 in 2007 and 2006, as defined by the Plan. These contributions are not eligible for matching contributions by the Company. In March 2008 and 2007, the Plan reimbursed certain participants for excess amounts contributed to the Plan during 2007 and 2006, respectively.
 
  (c) Participant Accounts
 
    Each participant's account is credited with (a) the participant's contributions and allocations of the Company's matching contribution and (b) Plan net earnings, and reduced by (c) Plan net losses (including maintenance fees paid by the participant) and (d) loan initiation fees, when applicable. Allocations are based on participant’s salary deferrals or account balances, as defined. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant's vested account balance.
 
  (d) Vesting
 
    Participants are immediately vested in their contributions plus actual earnings thereon. Vesting in the Company’s matching contributions and earnings thereon is over a five-year period; a participant vests 20% per year beginning after the first year of vesting service and is fully vested after five years of vesting service.

           (e)       Investment Options
 
  Participants may change their investment options daily. Effective February 2007, each participant may direct his or her contributions to the following funds in 1% increments:
 
     

Russell Investment Contract Fund – The fund seeks to diversify across many companies and investment contracts to help protect the principal and reduce market risk. The contracts held within this fund are issued by major insurance companies and banks. The fund’s rate of return fluctuates with the market condition.

Custom Funds FL Fixed Income I Portfolio – Participant’s assets are invested in a variety of bonds representing a diversity of sectors and maturities. This fund has less risk and lower returns than stocks but the advisors seek higher returns than a money market fund or a shorter maturity bond fund. The fund maintains an intermediate-term portfolio maturity.

Custom Funds FL Global Balanced Portfolio – Participant’s assets are invested in a premixed portfolio strategically invested in U.S. stocks, non-U.S. stocks, U.S bonds and real estate. The fund employs a globally moderate balanced strategy by investing in stocks and short and intermediate term bonds. The fund is expected to generate a high rate of return.

Custom Funds FL Large Cap Structured Equity Portfolio – Participant’s assets are invested within a portfolio of large U.S. companies but is diversified strategically with companies that perform differently in various economic situations. The fund seeks to achieve high, long-term rates of return.

Custom Funds FL Russell 1000 Portfolio – This fund aligns its stock selection with the Russell 1000 Index. The stocks in this index are highly diversified across the full range of industries and sectors of the large cap U.S. stock market. This fund seeks to match the index performance and seeks to provide a highly predictable return.

Russell Equity I Fund – This fund utilizes a combination of three distinct styles: value, growth, and market oriented because no single investment style dominates the market place. This fund invests in companies ranked among the largest 1,000 companies in the United States stock market. This fund seeks higher, long-term rates of return.

Russell Equity II Fund – This fund utilizes a combination of three distinct styles: value, growth, and market oriented because no single investment style dominates the market place. This fund invests in smaller companies ranked among in the United States stock market. This fund seeks higher, long-term rates of return.

Custom Funds All International Markets Portfolio – This fund invests in companies from around the world excluding the United States. The market cycles of the world do not necessarily mirror the United States and are influenced by different economic factors. This fund is sensitive to possible risks not found in the United States investments such as foreign currency fluctuations or political unrest. These types of investments can have higher returns over the long term but are also fairly volatile in the short term.

Foot Locker Stock Fund – Participant’s assets are invested in Foot Locker Shares. Foot Locker Shares may be obtained by the Trustee directly from the Company out of its authorized but unissued shares of common stock or out of its treasury shares, or on the open market.

 

During 2006 and in January 2007, Oppenheimer Funds provided investment management services to the Plan and each participant had the option to direct his or her contributions to the following funds in 1% increments in addition to the Foot Locker Stock Fund:

 

Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund – Participant’s assets are invested in a mutual fund with a portfolio of high-yield, lower-rated fixed-income securities as a primary goal. The fund secondarily seeks capital growth when consistent with its primary objective. Securities include lower-grade bonds and notes of corporate issuers, foreign corporate and government bonds and structured notes. The fund is designed to seek high current income and capital growth.

Oppenheimer Quest Balanced Fund – Participant’s assets are invested in a mutual fund that mainly invests in undervalued U.S. common stocks, preferred stocks and securities convertible into common stock issued by U.S. Corporations, corporate and government bonds, notes and other debt securities for investment income, which can be below investment grade. The fund’s primary objective is to seek capital growth and investment income.

Oppenheimer Quest Opportunity Value Fund – Participant’s assets are invested in a mutual fund with a diversified portfolio of stocks, bonds and cash equivalents, although it focuses primarily on stocks. The fund’s design is similar to the Quest Balanced Fund. The fund is designed to seek growth of capital.

           (f)       Participant Loans
 
  Participants may borrow from their fund accounts once each year a minimum of $1,000, up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their total vested account balance (excluding matching contributions). At any time only one loan may be outstanding per participant. Loan transactions are treated as transfers between the investment funds and the participant loans fund. Loan terms range up to 5 years, or up to 15 years for the purchase of a primary residence. The loans are secured by the balance in the participant's account and bear a rate of interest equal to the prime rate on the date of the loan distribution. Principal and interest is generally paid ratably through regular payroll deductions. Participant loans totaling $2,381,440 and $2,026,013 were outstanding at December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively, bearing interest rates ranging from 4.00% to 8.50% in each year.
 
(g) Payment of Benefits
 
  Participants are eligible for a distribution upon termination of service, death, disability or retirement. A participant will receive a lump-sum amount equal to the fair market value of the participant's vested interest in his or her account. A participant may elect to have any investment in the Foot Locker Stock Fund and vested Company matching contributions distributed in either cash or Foot Locker Shares.
 
  Participants are eligible for a distribution due to financial hardship under certain conditions in accordance with the Plan Document. The amount of a hardship withdrawal may not exceed the cost associated with the financial hardship in addition to any mandatory federal income tax withholding, state and local income taxes or penalties incurred.

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2007 and 2006

  (h) Administrative Fees
 
    Included in administrative fees are amounts paid by participants for processing loans, administrative fees paid using forfeitures and investment management fees. To the extent expenses of administering the Plan are not paid using forfeitures, the expenses are paid by the Company and therefore are not included in the accompanying financial statements.
 
  (i)       Forfeitures
 
    Forfeitures are allocated as of the last day of the Plan year. Forfeitures are used to pay for administrative expenses of the Plan and then to reduce future matching contributions. Administrative expenses paid from forfeited non-vested accounts amounted to $39,962 and $36,329 in 2007 and 2006, respectively. At December 31, 2007 and 2006, forfeited non-vested accounts totaled $317,641 and $389,770, respectively.
 
(2)       Summary of Accounting Principles
 
  (a) Basis of Accounting
 
    The financial statements of the Plan are prepared using the accrual method of accounting.
 
  (b) Use of Estimates
 
    The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and changes therein and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.
 
  (c) Investment Valuation and Income Recognition
 
    The Plan's investments are stated at fair value. Investments in commingled funds are valued by the issuer based on quoted market prices of the underlying securities. Shares of mutual funds at December 31, 2006 were valued at quoted market prices, which represented the net asset value of shares held by the Plan. Foot Locker shares are valued at the quoted market price. Participant loans are valued at their outstanding cost balances, which approximates fair value. Loan interest income is allocated to the investment fund from which the amount is borrowed. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
 
  (d) Payment of Benefits
 
    Benefits are recorded when paid.
 
  (e) Recently Released Accounting Pronouncements
 
    In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”) which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 2007. This statement provides a single definition of fair value and a common framework for measuring fair value as well as expanded disclosure requirements for fair value used in financial statements. It applies to other pronouncements that require or permit fair value but does not require any new fair value measurements. Management does not expect SFAS No. 157 to have a material effect on the Plan’s financial statements.
 
(3) Plan Termination
 
  Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan termination, participants will become fully vested in their accounts.
 
(4) Tax Status
 
  The Company received a favorable determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service with respect to the qualification of the Plan dated October 15, 2002. The Plan has been amended since receiving the letter, however, the Company believes that the Plan currently is designed and is being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. On January 31, 2007, Form 5300 was filed with the IRS for an advance determination on the continuing qualification of the Plan which is currently pending. In October 2007, the Internal Revenue Service notified the Company that it planned to audit the Plan through December 31, 2006. The audit is in process. Certain operational errors were identified in 2007 that the Company is researching and will take the appropriate actions to correct the errors.

December 31, 2007 and 2006

(5)       Risks and Uncertainties
 
  The Plan offers a number of investment options including the participant investments in Foot Locker Shares. Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect participants’ account balances and the amounts reported in the statement of net assets available for benefits.
 
  The Plan’s exposure to a concentration of credit risk is limited by the diversification of investments across all participant-directed fund elections. Additionally, the investments within each participant-directed fund election are further diversified into varied financial instruments, with the exception of the Foot Locker Stock Fund, which invests in the securities of a single issuer.
 
(6) Investments
 
  The following investments represent five percent or more of the Plan’s net assets at December 31, 2007 and 2006:

(7)       Related Party Transactions
 
  The Plan allows for transactions with certain parties who may perform services or have fiduciary responsibilities to the Plan, including the Company. Certain Plan investments are shares of various commingled funds which are managed by Russell Investment Group, who has been designated as the investment manager effective February 1, 2007. During 2006 and January 2007, Oppenheimer Funds was the investment manager for the plan. The Plan invests in common stock of the Company and issues loans to participants, which are secured by the balances in the participants’ accounts. The Cash Management Trust primarily consists of a cash account that is used to facilitate the Trustee in purchasing shares of the Company’s common stock. These transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions.
