This proxy statement summarizes the information you need to know to vote at the annual meeting. Throughout the proxy statement, the terms “We,” “Our,” “Too,” and the “Company” refer to Too, Inc.
     We began mailing this proxy statement and the enclosed proxy card on or about April 17, 2006, to all stockholders entitled to vote. Our 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K is being sent with this proxy statement.
Date, time and place of meeting

      New Albany, Ohio 43054
Shares entitled to vote
     Stockholders entitled to vote are those who owned our common stock at the close of business on the record date, April 7, 2006. As of the record date, there were 32,933,422 shares of Too, Inc. common stock outstanding. Each share of common stock that you own entitles you to one vote.
Voting your proxy
     Whether or not you plan to attend the annual meeting, we urge you to vote. Stockholders of record can give proxies by mailing their signed proxy cards or by voting telephonically or on the Internet. Submitting your completed proxy card, or voting telephonically or on the Internet, will not affect your right to attend the annual meeting and vote.
     The enclosed proxy card indicates the number of shares of our common stock that you own as of the record date.
     Instructions for the three methods of voting your proxy are listed on your proxy card. If you complete and submit your proxy correctly, one of the individuals named on your proxy card (your “proxy”) will vote your shares as you have directed. If you submit the proxy but do not make specific choices, your proxy will follow the Board’s recommendations and vote your shares:
    “FOR” the election of the nominees for director (as described on page 3); and
 
    “FOR” the ratification of the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company for the 2006 fiscal year (as described on page 22).
     If any other matter is presented at the annual meeting, your proxy will vote in accordance with his best judgment. At the time this proxy statement went to press, we knew of no other matters, beyond the approval of the aforementioned matters, to be acted on at the annual meeting.
Revoking your proxy
     You may revoke your proxy by:
    submitting a later dated proxy;
 
    notifying our Secretary in writing before the meeting that you have revoked your proxy; or
 
    voting in person at the meeting.

Voting in person
     If you plan to attend the meeting and vote in person, a ballot will be available when you arrive. However, if your shares are held in the name of your broker, bank or other nominee, you must bring a letter from the nominee indicating that you are the beneficial owner of the shares as of the close of business on April 7, 2006, the record date for voting, and that you are authorized to vote those shares at the annual meeting.
Quorum requirement
     A quorum of stockholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. The presence at the meeting, in person or by proxy of the holders of shares representing at least one-third of the votes of the common stock entitled to vote constitutes a quorum. Abstentions and broker “non-votes” are counted as present for establishing a quorum. A broker non-vote occurs on an item when a broker is not permitted to vote on that item absent instruction from the beneficial owner of the shares and no instruction is given.
Votes necessary
     
Item   Vote Necessary*
Election of Directors
  Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes represented by the shares of common stock present at the meeting in person or by proxy. This means that the director nominee with the most affirmative votes for a particular position is elected for that position.
 
   
Ratification of the Selection of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
  The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock present at the meeting in person or by proxy and entitled to vote.
 
*   Under New York Stock Exchange rules, if your broker holds your shares in its name, your broker is permitted to vote your shares on these items even if it does not receive voting instructions from you.
     For the election of directors, proxies that are marked “Withhold Authority” and broker non-votes will not count toward a nominee’s achievement of a plurality, and, thus, will have no effect. As to each other matter submitted to our stockholders for approval at the annual meeting, for purposes of determining the number of shares of our common stock voting on the matter, (1) abstentions will be counted and will have the effect of a negative vote, and (2) broker non-votes will not be counted and, thus, will have no effect.

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
     The Board of Directors has nominated three directors for election at the annual meeting. Each of the nominees is currently serving as a director. If you re-elect them, each will hold office for a three-year term expiring at the 2009 annual meeting or until his or her successor has been elected.
     Your proxy will vote for each of the nominees unless you specifically withhold authority to vote for a particular nominee. If any nominee is unable to serve, your proxy may vote for another nominee proposed by the Board. We do not know of any nominee of the Board who would be unable to serve as director if elected.
     Stockholders wishing to nominate directors for election may do so by delivering to the Chair of the Nominating Committee of the Company, not less than 14 days nor more than 50 days before a meeting of the stockholders called for the election of directors, a notice stating: (a) the name, age, business address and, if known, residence address of each nominee proposed in the notice; (b) the principal occupation or employment of each nominee; (c) the number of shares of common stock of the Company beneficially owned by each nominee; and (d) such other information as is required by the Company’s bylaws. No person may be elected as a director of the Company unless he or she has been nominated by a stockholder in this manner or by the Board of Directors.

Information Concerning the Board of Directors and Corporate Governance
     Our Board of Directors held four meetings in fiscal year 2005. During fiscal year 2005, all of the directors attended 75 percent or more of the total number of meetings of the Board (held during the period for which such person was a director) and committees of the Board on which they served (held during the period for which such person served).
     It is the Company’s expectation that all members of the Board of Directors attend the annual meeting of stockholders. All members of the Company’s Board of Directors were present at the Company’s 2005 annual meeting of stockholders.
     Upon consideration of the criteria and requirements regarding director independence set forth in the rules of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), the Board of Directors has determined that a majority of its members are independent. Specifically, the Board has determined that Ms. Eveillard, Ms. Kramer, and Messrs. Krinsky, Mallott, Roberts, and Strottman meet the standards of independence established by NYSE Rule 303A.02. For a director to be considered independent, the Board must determine that a director does not have any direct or indirect material relationship with the Company. The Board has established guidelines to assist it in determining director independence, which conform to, or are more exacting than, the independence requirements in the NYSE listing rules. The independence guidelines are set forth on pages 2 — 5 of the Company’s Corporate Governance Principles, which can be obtained on the Company’s website as described below.
     The presiding director at the executive sessions of the non-management directors rotates among the Chairs of the Audit, Compensation, and Nominating and Governance Committees, in that order. The Company’s Board of Directors welcomes communications from stockholders. Stockholders may send communications to the Board of Directors, any director, or the non-management directors, c/o Too, Inc., 8323 Walton Parkway, New Albany, Ohio 43054.
     During fiscal year 2003 and early fiscal year 2004, in response to SEC initiatives, the new NYSE listing requirements, and the corporate governance requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the Board of Directors adopted Corporate Governance Principles, an Amended and Restated Audit Committee Charter, a Compensation Committee Charter, and a Nominating and Governance Committee Charter. The Board of Directors also adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which is applicable to all of the Company’s directors, officers, and associates, and a Code of Ethics for Senior Financial Officers. All of the above are available in the corporate governance section of our website, www.tooinc.com.
Committees of the Board of Directors
     The Board of Directors has standing Audit, Compensation, and Nominating and Governance Committees. Each of the committees consists solely of directors who meet the standards of independence established by NYSE Rule 303A.02, including the more stringent independence standard required for audit committees.
Audit Committee
     The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors selects the firm to be employed as our independent registered public accounting firm, reviews the scope of their audit and fees, including services provided for the review of the quarterly results and related filings, as well as reviews and approves any non-audit fees. In addition, the Audit Committee consults with the independent auditors about the plan of audit, the resulting audit report and the accompanying management letter. The Audit Committee also confers with the independent auditors about the adequacy of internal accounting controls, as appropriate, outside of the presence of management. The Audit Committee also oversees and advises management with respect to the documentation, testing and evaluation of the Company’s system of internal control over financial reporting. The members of the Company’s Audit Committee are Philip E. Mallott, Chairman, Elizabeth M. Eveillard, and David A. Krinsky. Kenneth J. Strottman was also a member of the Audit Committee until May 2005 when he was replaced by Mr. Krinsky. The Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Mallott, Chairman, meets the requirements of a “financial expert” as set forth in Section 401(h) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC. The Audit Committee held ten meetings in fiscal year 2005.

Compensation Committee
     The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors reviews executive compensation and administers the Company’s stock option and incentive compensation performance plans. Its members are Fredric M. Roberts, Chairman, Nancy J. Kramer, and Elizabeth M. Eveillard. Kenneth J. Strottman was also a member of the Compensation Committee until May 2005 when he was replaced by Ms. Eveillard. The Compensation Committee held four meetings in fiscal year 2005.
Nominating and Governance Committee
     The Nominating and Governance Committee consists of Nancy J. Kramer, Chairwoman, Fredric M. Roberts, and Kenneth J. Strottman. Elizabeth M. Eveillard was also a member of the Nominating and Governance Committee until May 2005 when she was replaced by Mr. Strottman. The Nominating and Governance Committee makes recommendations to the Board of Directors regarding the size and composition of the Board, establishes procedures for the nomination process, recommends candidates for election to the Board of Directors, and leads the Board in its annual evaluation of the Board’s performance. When considering potential candidates, the Nominating and Governance Committee looks for candidates who, as a group, meet the Company’s strategic needs; possess high personal values and integrity; have an understanding of the regulatory and policy environment in which the Company does its business; and have substantial experience that is of particular relevance to the Company. The Company generally does not pay any third parties to identify or evaluate, or assist in identifying or evaluating, potential nominees.
     The Nominating and Governance Committee also has the responsibility to develop and recommend to the Board of Directors a set of corporate governance principles applicable to the Company. The Company’s Corporate Governance Principles are posted on the Company’s website at www.tooinc.com, as described previously.
     The Nominating and Governance Committee will consider director nominations made by stockholders for the 2007 annual meeting of stockholders provided that the names of such nominees are submitted in writing within the time period described on page 3.
     The Nominating and Governance Committee will also consider the recommendations of stockholders regarding potential director candidates. In order for stockholder recommendations regarding possible director candidates for director to be considered by the Nominating and Governance Committee:
    such recommendations must be provided to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee c/o Too, Inc., 8323 Walton Parkway, New Albany, Ohio 43054, in writing at least 120 days prior to the date of the next scheduled annual meeting;
 
    the nominating stockholder must meet the eligibility requirements to submit a valid stockholder proposal under Rule 14a-8 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; and
 
    the stockholder must describe the qualifications, attributes, skills, or other qualities of the recommended director candidate.
     The Nominating and Governance Committee held two meetings in fiscal year 2005.

Employment Agreements with Certain Executive Officers
     We entered into amended and restated employment agreements with Mr. Rayden, Ms. Boyer, Mr. Bracale, Ms. Damaso, Ms. Munnelly, and Mr. Sykes effective September 15, 2003. The Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. May effective February 23, 2004. Except for Mr. Rayden, whose agreement has an initial term of five years, each agreement has an initial term of three years, after which it will renew automatically for additional one year periods on the same terms and conditions, unless either party provides notice to the other of an intention not to extend it at least 90 days prior to the anniversary date. Furthermore, if a change in control (as defined in the agreement) occurs during the term of the agreement, the term of the agreement will be extended for two years from the date of the change in control.
     Each employment agreement provides for a minimum annual base salary, plus any increases in base compensation as may be authorized by the Board of Directors after the date of the agreement. The agreements also provide for each officer’s continued participation in the Company’s incentive compensation and stock option plans and other benefits as described in the agreements.
     The employment agreements require the Company to compensate each officer and provide him or her with certain benefits if his or her employment is terminated before the agreement expires. The compensation and benefits each officer is entitled to receive vary depending upon whether his or her employment is terminated: (1) by the Company for cause (as defined in the officer’s agreement), or voluntarily by the officer, or in the case of Mr. Rayden, other than for good reason (as defined in his agreement); (2) by the Company other than for cause, or in the case of Mr. Rayden, for good reason; (3) involuntarily due to disability; (4) upon retirement; or (5) upon the officer’s death, under which circumstance the applicable compensation and benefits are payable to the officer’s beneficiaries.
     If the officer’s employment is terminated by the Company for cause, voluntarily by the officer, or in the case of Mr. Rayden, if his employment is terminated by the Company for cause or by Mr. Rayden for other than good reason (as defined in his agreement), the officer’s severance benefits payable under the employment agreement will include:
    any accrued base salary and accrued vacation not paid as of the termination date;
 
    vested benefits as of the termination date under the Company’s benefit, retirement, incentive and other plans; and
 
    in Mr. Rayden’s case, continued payment of life insurance premiums through the end of the calendar year.
     If the officer’s employment is terminated by the Company other than for cause, or in the case of Mr. Rayden, for good reason (as defined in his agreement), the officer’s severance benefits payable under the employment agreement will include:
    any accrued base salary and accrued vacation not paid as of the termination date;
 
    a pro-rated bonus amount;
 
    vested benefits as of the termination date under the Company’s benefit, retirement, incentive and other plans;
 
    continued payment of 100% of base salary for 12 months for Mr. Sykes, Ms. Damaso and Ms. Munnelly, continued payment of 100% of base salary for 18 months for Ms. Boyer, Mr. May and Mr. Bracale and, in the case of Mr. Rayden, a lump sum amount equal to two times the sum of (i) base salary and (ii) the greater of Mr. Rayden’s (a) annual par target bonus opportunity in the year of termination or (b) the actual annual bonus earned by Mr. Rayden in the year prior to the year of termination;
 
    continued insurance benefits for one year for Mr. Sykes, Ms. Damaso and Ms. Munnelly, 18 months for Ms. Boyer, Mr. May and Mr. Bracale and, in Mr. Rayden’s case, two years;
 
    outplacement services and related travel costs up to a maximum of $10,000 (or, in Mr. Rayden’s case, $30,000);
 
    acceleration of vesting of stock awards by 12 additional months for Ms. Boyer, Mr. May and Mr. Bracale and, in Mr. Rayden’s case, acceleration of vesting stock awards by 24 additional months and continued payment of life insurance premiums through the end of the calendar year; and

Table of Contents

    employment continuation period for disability benefits for one year for Mses. Boyer, Damaso and Munnelly, and Messrs. May, Bracale and Sykes.
     If the officer’s employment is terminated involuntarily due to disability, the officer’s severance benefits payable under the employment agreement will include:
    any accrued base salary and accrued vacation not paid as of the disability date;
 
    a pro-rated bonus amount;
 
    vested benefits as of the termination date under the Company’s benefit, retirement, incentive and other plans;
 
    100%, 80% and 60%, respectively, of base salary for the first, second and third 12 months following the disability date (reduced by amounts received by the officer under the Company’s disability plans);
 
    additional salary benefits if the officer is disabled beyond 36 months; and
 
    in Mr. Rayden’s case, continued payment of life insurance premiums through the end of the calendar year.
Notwithstanding the above, the salary continuation payments will cease upon the earlier of (a) the disability ceasing to exist or (b) the officer’s retirement.
     If the officer’s employment is terminated by reason of his or her retirement, the officer’s severance benefits will include the following:
    accrued base salary and accrued vacation not paid as of the termination date;
 
    a pro-rated bonus amount; and
 
    vested benefits as of the termination date under the Company’s benefit, retirement, incentive and other plans.
     If the officer’s employment is terminated by reason of his or her death, the Company’s sole obligation will be to pay the officer’s spouse, estate or designated beneficiary, as the case may be, the same amounts due the officer if he or she had retired, as described above.
     The employment agreements also prohibit the officer from becoming directly or indirectly connected with any business or entity that competes directly or indirectly with the Company during the officer’s employment with the Company and for a period of one year (or in the case of Mr. Rayden, two years) from the date of termination if employment is terminated: (1) by the Company for any reason, (2) by the officer for any reason, or (3) by reason of either the Company’s or the officer’s decision not to extend the term of the agreement. Mr. Rayden’s non-competition period will terminate after a change in control, upon a termination by the Company for other than cause, or upon a termination by Mr. Rayden for good reason. The non-competition periods of the other officers will terminate upon termination by the Company other than for cause after a change in control, or by the officer for good reason after a change in control.
     We also entered into executive agreements with Mr. Rayden, Ms. Boyer, Mr. Bracale, Ms. Damaso and Ms. Munnelly effective September 15, 2000, with Mr. Sykes effective October 30, 2000, and with Mr. May effective February 23, 2004. Each agreement has an initial term of three years, after which it will renew automatically for additional one year periods on the same terms and conditions, unless the Company provides notice to the officer of an intention not to extend the executive agreement at least 30 days prior to the anniversary date. Furthermore, if a change in control (as defined in the executive agreement) occurs during the term of the executive agreement, the term of the agreement will be extended for two years from the date of the change in control.
     Under each executive agreement, the Company must provide severance benefits to the officer if his or her employment is terminated (other than on account of death or disability or for cause):
    by the Company at any time six months prior to a change in control if such termination was in contemplation of such change in control and was done to avoid the effects of the agreement;

    by the Company within 24 months after a change in control;
 
    by the officer for good reason (as defined in the executive agreement) at any time within 24 months after a change in control; or
 
    in the case of Mr. Rayden, by him with or without good reason during the period beginning on the one year anniversary date of a change in control and lasting for 30 days.
     In addition to accrued compensation, bonuses, vested benefits and stock options, the officer’s severance benefits payable under the executive agreement include:
    a lump sum cash payment equal to the sum of: (1) any accrued base salary and vacation time payable as of the termination and (2) the officer’s base annual salary (as defined in the agreement) multiplied by three;
 
    a lump sum cash payment equal to the sum of: (1) the pro-rated bonus amount (as defined in the agreement) and (2) the highest annual incentive compensation to which the officer would be entitled multiplied by three;

     The following Compensation Committee Report, Performance Graph, and Audit Committee Report shall not be deemed incorporated by reference by any general statement incorporating by reference this proxy statement into any of our filings under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, except to the extent that we specifically incorporate this information by reference, and shall not otherwise be deemed filed under such Acts.
REPORT OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE
     Our Compensation Committee has the power, among other things, to do the following:
    review and approve our executive compensation philosophy and policies and the application of such policies to the compensation of our executive officers;
 
    determine the annual salary, bonus, stock grants and options, and other benefits, direct and indirect, of our executives officers;
 
    review new executive compensation programs;
 
    establish and periodically review policies for the administration of our executive compensation programs; and
 
    approve certain employment arrangements with new employees.
Compensation Philosophy
     We seek to apply a consistent compensation philosophy for all of our leadership group associates, including our executive officers. The primary goals of our compensation program are to:
    attract and retain qualified executives;
 
    reward current and past individual performance;
 
    provide short-term and long-term incentives for good and excellent future performance; and
 
    link total compensation for individual performance and our performance to enhance stockholder value.
     Accordingly, we have structured total compensation for our leadership group associates to provide a portion of the compensation as fixed compensation and a portion of the compensation as a variable amount based on performance. Our philosophy is built on the following basic principles:
    To Pay for Performance
     We believe in paying for results. Individuals in leadership roles are compensated based on a combination of total Company, business unit and individual performance factors. Total Company performance is evaluated primarily based on the degree by which financial targets are met or exceeded. In addition, a significant portion of total compensation is in the form of equity-based awards, which ties into increases in stockholder value.
    To Pay Competitively
     We are committed to providing a total compensation program designed to attract the best senior leaders to our business and retain the best and most consistent performers. To achieve this goal, we will periodically compare our pay practices and overall pay levels with other leading retail, and where appropriate, non-retail companies, and adjust our compensation guidelines based on this review.

Table of Contents

    To Pay Equitably
     We believe that it is important to apply generally consistent guidelines for substantially all associate compensation programs across our Company, considering the size of unit, area of responsibility, complexity, development stage, and performance of our Company, along with the performance of the individual executive.
Principal Compensation Elements
     The principal elements of our executive compensation packages are base salary, performance-based cash incentive compensation, and equity-based long-term incentive programs.
     Base Salary
     The Committee annually reviews and approves the employment of each executive officer, including the base salary. The Committee considers an individual’s qualifications and experience in setting an initial base salary. In determining salary adjustments, the Committee considers the size and responsibility of the individual’s position, the business unit’s overall performance, the individual’s overall performance and future potential, and the base salaries paid by competitors to employees in comparable positions. Individual performance is measured against the following factors: seasonal and annual business goals, business growth and brand execution goals, and the recruitment and development of future leadership talent. The Committee considers these factors subjectively in the aggregate, and accords none a formula weight.
     Performance-Based Cash Incentive Compensation
     We have employed a performance-based cash incentive compensation program for specified key leadership positions along with certain other members of the Company’s management that provides for incentive payments based on the level of achievement of pre-established financial goals for each six-month operating season. The goals under this plan for spring 2005 and fall 2005 were based on operating income. Goals, however, also may be based on other financial measures, including the price of the Company’s or an affiliate’s common stock, stockholder return, return on equity, return on investment, return on capital, sales productivity, comparable store sales growth, economic profit, economic value added, net income, gross margin, sales, free cash flow, earnings per share, operating company contribution or market share. These goals are generally determined prior to or near the beginning of each season, and are based on an analysis of historical performance and growth expectations for our business, expectations of the public markets and progress toward achieving our long-range strategic plan for the business. Target cash incentive compensation opportunities are established annually for eligible executives stated as a specific percentage of base salary, ranging from 10 percent to 150 percent of base salary. The amount of incentive compensation paid to participating executives can range from zero to double their targets, based upon the extent to which performance goals are achieved or exceeded. The maximum amount payable to any participant may not exceed $3,000,000 in any year under the incentive program.
     Equity-Based Incentive Programs
     The Committee believes that continued emphasis on equity-based compensation opportunities encourages performance that enhances stockholder value, thereby further linking leadership and stockholder objectives. We believe that the magnitude and vesting schedule of the award also serve to retain key performers.
     The award opportunity level for each eligible participant depends on the individual’s responsibility level and potential within the Company, competitive practices, and the market price of our common stock.
     In 2005, the Company awarded restricted stock awards or stock options to key executives in the amounts set forth in the Summary Compensation Table on page 9 and the Option Grants in Fiscal Year 2005 table on page 11. The restricted stock awards are based on the achievement of certain pre-established financial goals. The option program utilizes vesting periods to encourage retention of key executives. The exercise price for each option granted equals the fair market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.

CEO Compensation
     We entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Rayden, effective September 15, 2003. Under the terms of his employment agreement, Mr. Rayden may receive equity compensation such as restricted stock, stock options, and deferred compensation at the Compensation Committee’s discretion. The terms of Mr. Rayden’s employment agreement are described above in this proxy statement under the section entitled “Employment Agreements with Certain Executive Officers.”
     In February 2005, the Company awarded 44,602 stock option shares in Too, Inc. to Mr. Rayden.
Section 162(m)
     Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m) bars a deduction to any publicly held corporation for compensation paid to a “covered employee” in excess of $1 million per year unless performance criteria are set by the Compensation Committee within 90 days prior to the beginning of a performance period (or such earlier or later date as is permitted by Section 162(m)). Generally, we intend that compensation paid to our “covered employees” shall be deductible to the fullest extent permitted by law. We may make payments that are not fully deductible if, in our judgment, such payments are necessary to achieve our compensation objectives and to protect stockholder interests.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION
     Fredric M. Roberts, Nancy J. Kramer, and Elizabeth M. Eveillard, who are not employees of the Company, are members of the Compensation Committee. Kenneth J. Strottman was also a member of the Compensation Committee until May 2005 when he was replaced by Ms. Eveillard. Since 1993, Mr. Rayden has served as a member of the advisory board of Strottman International, Inc., a privately held company, of which Mr. Strottman is President and Chief Executive Officer. In his capacity as an advisory board member, Mr. Rayden has no power to direct the activities of Strottman International, Inc. or to set the compensation of Mr. Strottman.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT
     The primary responsibility of the Audit Committee is to assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities relating primarily to the quality and integrity of Too, Inc.’s financial reporting process and reports, its systems of internal accounting and controls, and the independent audit of its financial statements. Management is responsible for preparing the financial statements, and the outside auditor is responsible for auditing those financial statements. The Audit Committee, which consists of three independent directors, functions in accordance with a written charter adopted by the Board of Directors. The Amended and Restated Audit Committee Charter is available on the Company’s Corporate Governance page on its website at www.tooinc.com. The Charter requires the Audit Committee to perform a self-assessment and review the Charter annually.
     In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Audit Committee reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 28, 2006, with management and the outside auditors, including their judgment about the quality and appropriateness of accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant judgments, and the clarity of the disclosures in the financial statements. In addition, the Audit Committee discussed with the outside auditors the matters required to be communicated under generally accepted auditing standards by Statement on Auditing Standards 61. The Audit Committee also discussed with the outside auditors the auditors’ independence from management and the Company, and discussed the matters contained in the outside auditors’ formal written statement received by the Company and required by the Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1.
     The Audit Committee discussed with the Company’s outside auditors the overall scope and plan for their audit. The Audit Committee met separately with the outside auditors, with and without management present, to discuss the results of their examinations, including the integrity, adequacy, and effectiveness of the accounting and financial reporting processes and controls, and the overall quality of Too, Inc.’s reporting.
     In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board, and the Board has approved, that the audited financial statements be included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 28, 2006, for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
     During the course of the fiscal year ended January 28, 2006, management completed the documentation, testing and evaluation of the Company’s system of internal control over financial reporting in response to the requirements set forth in Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and related regulations. The Committee was apprised of the progress of the evaluation and provided oversight and advice to management during the process. In connection with this oversight, the Committee received periodic updates provided by management and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP at each regularly scheduled Committee meeting. The Committee also reviewed the report of management contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 28, 2006, as well as PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP’s Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K related to its audit of (i) the Company’s consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule, (ii) management’s assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, and (iii) the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. The Committee continues to oversee the Company’s efforts related to its internal control over financial reporting and management’s preparations for the evaluation in fiscal 2006.

(1)   Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, which generally attribute beneficial ownership of securities to persons who possess sole or shared voting power and or investment power with respect to those securities.
 
(2)   “Percent of Class” is calculated by dividing the number of shares beneficially owned by the total number of outstanding shares of the Company on February 28, 2006, plus the number of shares such person has the right to acquire within 60 days of February 28, 2006.
 
(3)   Based on information filed on Schedule 13G with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 23, 2006, by Snow Capital Management, L.P.
 
(4)   Based on information filed on Schedule 13G with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 10, 2006, by JPMorgan Chase & Co. as parent holding company for JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association, J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc., Bank One Trust Co., N.A., and JPMorgan Investment Advisors Inc.
SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE
     Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our officers, directors, and greater than 10% stockholders to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership of the Company’s securities with the Securities and Exchange Commission. SEC regulations require that copies of the reports be provided to the Company. Based solely on our review of such reports, we believe that all reporting persons complied with all filing requirements during the fiscal year ended January 28, 2006, except for one late Form 4 filing for Ms. Munnelly.
INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
     PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”) served as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Company for the 2005 fiscal year and throughout the periods covered by the consolidated financial statements. Representatives of PwC are expected to attend the annual meeting in order to respond to questions from stockholders, and they will have the opportunity to make a statement.
     On February 9, 2006, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company determined that it would dismiss PwC as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm upon completion by PwC of its procedures on the Company’s financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended January 28, 2006 and the Form 10-K in which such financial statements will be included. Upon completion of such procedures by PwC, the Company will file an

amendment to the Current Report on Form 8-K, filed on February 15, 2006, with an update of the disclosures required by Items 304(a)(1)(ii), (iv) and (v) of Regulation S-K through the date of completion of such procedures.
     PwC’s reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended January 29, 2005 and January 31, 2004, did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
     During the Company’s fiscal years ended January 29, 2005 and January 31, 2004, and through February 9, 2006, there were no disagreements with PwC on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure (within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) which, if not resolved to PwC’s satisfaction, would have caused PwC to make reference thereto in its report on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for such years. There were no reportable events (as defined by Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K), except for a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over the selection and application of our lease accounting policies, which failed to identify misstatements in property and equipment, deferred credits from landlords, rent expense, depreciation expense and the related impact of these items on cash provided by operating activities and cash used for investing activities (the “Material Weakness”), as reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2005 (the “2004 Form 10-K”). PwC discussed the Material Weakness with the Audit Committee during the Company’s preparation of the 2004 Form 10-K. As reported in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended July 30, 2005, the Material Weakness was remediated. The Company has authorized PwC to respond fully to any inquiries by the successor independent registered public accounting firm relating to the Material Weakness.
     The Company requested PwC to furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether PwC agreed with the above statements. A copy of PwC’s letter was filed as Exhibit 16.1 to Amendment No. 1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 24, 2006.
     On February 14, 2006, the Audit Committee approved the engagement of Deloitte & Touche LLP (“Deloitte & Touche”) to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending February 3, 2007. The decision to appoint Deloitte & Touche as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm was made by the Audit Committee and was the result of a competitive review process involving several accounting firms.
     During the Company’s fiscal years ended January 29, 2005 and January 31, 2004, and through February 9, 2006, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted with Deloitte & Touche regarding any of the matters or events set forth in Items 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
     The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has selected, subject to the ratification of the stockholders of the Company, Deloitte & Touche LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Company for the 2006 fiscal year. It is intended that persons acting under the accompanying proxy will vote the shares represented thereby in favor of ratification of such appointment. It is anticipated that representatives of Deloitte & Touche LLP will be present at the annual meeting to respond to appropriate questions and to make a statement if such representatives so desire. Deloitte & Touche LLP has not performed audits of the Company in the past.
     Ratification of the selection of the independent registered public accounting firm requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock voting on the matter. Abstentions have the same effect as votes cast against ratification, and broker non-votes have no effect. Unless a contrary choice is specified, proxies solicited by the Board of Directors will be voted for ratification of the selection of the independent registered public accounting firm.
     THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR RATIFICATION OF THE SELECTION OF DELOITTE & TOUCHE LLP AS THE INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR THE 2006 FISCAL YEAR.

The Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to a member of the Committee. The decisions of the member to whom pre-approval authority is delegated must be presented to the full Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Audit Committee has delegated pre-approval authority to the Chairman.
STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS
     Stockholder proposals to be included in the proxy statement for the 2007 Annual Meeting of Stockholders should be submitted to the Secretary of the Company at our corporate offices by December 15, 2006, but not before November 15, 2006. The Company may omit from the proxy statement and form of proxy relating to the next annual meeting of stockholders any proposals that are not received by the Secretary by December 15, 2006, or which are received before November 15, 2006. Any stockholder proposal submitted outside the processes of Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, for presentation at our 2007 Annual Meeting will be considered untimely for purposes of Rule 14a-4 and 14a-5 if notice thereof is received by the Company after February 27, 2007. To be submitted at the meeting, any such proposal must be a proper subject for stockholder action under the laws of the State of Delaware.
     Stockholder nominations for the Board of Directors to be elected at the 2007 Annual Meeting of Stockholders should be submitted not less than 14 days, nor more than 50 days, before the 2007 Annual Meeting.
SOLICITATION EXPENSES
     The Company will pay the expense of preparing, assembling, printing and mailing the proxy form and the form of material used in solicitation of proxies. Our associates may solicit proxies by telephone, mail services, electronic mail, mailgram, facsimile, telegraph, cable and personal interview.

CERTAIN MATTERS RELATING TO PROXY MATERIALS AND ANNUAL REPORTS
     The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted amendments to its rules regarding delivery of proxy statements and annual reports to stockholders sharing the same address. We may now satisfy these delivery rules by delivering a single proxy statement and annual report to an address shared by two or more of our stockholders. This delivery method is referred to as “householding” and can result in significant costs savings for us. To take advantage of this opportunity, we have delivered only one proxy statement and annual report to multiple stockholders who share an address, unless we received contrary instructions from the impacted stockholders prior to the mailing date. We undertake to deliver promptly upon written or oral request a separate copy of the proxy statement or annual report, as requested, to a stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of those documents was delivered. If you prefer to receive separate copies of a proxy statement or annual report, either now or in the future, you can request a separate copy of the proxy statement or annual report by writing to us at the following address: Investor Relations, Too, Inc., 8323 Walton Parkway, New Albany, Ohio 43054, Attention: Robert C. Atkinson, or by telephoning us at (614) 775-3500.
     If you are currently a stockholder sharing an address with another Too, Inc. stockholder and wish to have your future proxy statements and annual reports householded, please contact Investor Relations at the above address or telephone number.
OTHER MATTERS
     Copies of the exhibits to our 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K may be downloaded from our corporate website, www.tooinc.com. Printed copies are also available, at a reasonable charge for copying and mailing, by writing to us at the following address: Investor Relations, Too, Inc., 8323 Walton Parkway, New Albany, Ohio 43054, Attention: Robert C. Atkinson, or by telephoning us at (614) 775-3500.
