Explanation of Responses:

*	If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
**	Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1)	Shares held in the Target Corporation 401(k) Plan, as of August 19, 2010, subject to earnings adjustments since the reporting person's last filing that have been reinvested in additional 401(k) Plan shares.
(2)	Includes dividend equivalents paid on restricted stock units since the date of the reporting person's last filing that have been reinvested in additional stock units.
(3)	Deferred compensation units are held under the Target Corporation Executive Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Plan"). Under the terms of the Plan, participant's deferred compensation balances are indexed to various crediting rate alternatives, as chosen by them. The units reported relate to the Target common stock crediting rate alternative, and each unit is the economic equivalent of one share of Target common stock. The value of such units increases or decreases daily in accordance with an equivalent investment in the Target Stock Fund in the corporation's 401(k) plan. Participants are generally free to transfer plan balances into other crediting rate alternatives at any time. The Plan balances represent unsecured general obligations of Target Corporation, and are payable solely in cash.
(4)	Includes units acquired as a result of reinvested dividends since the reporting person's last filing that reported these deferred compensation units.
