<P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On December&nbsp;30, 2010, Monro Muffler Brake, Inc. (the &#147;Company&#148;) entered into Employment Agreements with its President, John
W. Van Heel, its Executive Vice President-Store Operations, Joseph Tomarchio Jr. and its Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Catherine D&#146;Amico. All three Agreements became effective on January&nbsp;1, 2011 and have a four-year
term. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Under the Agreements, Messrs.&nbsp;Van Heel and Tomarchio and Ms.&nbsp;D&#146;Amico (i)&nbsp;will be paid an annual
base salary of $445,000, $475,000 and $330,000, respectively; (ii)&nbsp;will be eligible to earn a target bonus, pursuant to the terms of the Company&#146;s bonus plan, up to, in the case of Mr.&nbsp;Van Heel, 100% of his base salary, and, in the
case of Mr.&nbsp;Tomarchio and Ms.&nbsp;D&#146;Amico, 87.5% of the executive&#146;s base salary, upon the achievement of certain predetermined corporate objectives and (iii)&nbsp;will participate in the Company&#146;s other incentive and welfare and
benefit plans made available to executives. The base salary of each executive will be reviewed annually by the Compensation Committee and may be increased to reflect the performance and responsibilities of each such executive. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Finally, each executive is entitled to certain payments upon death, disability, a termination without Cause (as defined in the
Agreements), a resignation by the executive for Good Reason (as defined in the Agreements) or a termination in the event of a Change in Control of the Company (as defined in the Agreements), all as set forth in detail in the Agreement. In accordance
with the policy adopted by the Compensation Committee in May 2009, the executives contracts do not include any provision for the payment of what is commonly referred to as an &#147;excise tax gross-up&#148; with respect to payments received by an
executive upon a Change in Control (as defined in the Agreements). </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Also, on December&nbsp;30, 2010 and in consideration of
the executives&#146; execution of the Agreements, the Company&#146;s Compensation Committee awarded to Messrs.&nbsp;Van Heel and Tomarchio and Ms.&nbsp;D&#146;Amico a five (5)&nbsp;year option to purchase 150,000, 120,000 and 90,000 shares of Common
Stock, respectively, at an exercise price of $35.31 per share (the closing price of the Company&#146;s stock on the date of the award), pursuant to the Company&#146;s 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (together, the &#147;Executive Options&#148;). Each of
the Executive Options will vest equally over four (4)&nbsp;years, beginning December&nbsp;29, 2011. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">A copy of the
Company&#146;s Employment Agreements with Messrs. Van Heel and Tomarchio and Ms.&nbsp;D&#146;Amico are attached to this Current Report as Exhibits 99.1, 99.2 and 99.3, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference. </FONT></P>

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Today, the Company&#146;s Compensation Committee awarded to Robert G. Gross, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, a five (5)&nbsp;year option to purchase 150,000 shares of Common Stock, at an exercise
price of $33.62 per share (the closing price of the Company&#146;s stock on the date of the award). Like the Executive Options, the option grant to Mr.&nbsp;Gross will vest equally over four (4)&nbsp;years, beginning January&nbsp;3, 2012. The option
was granted in anticipation of Mr.&nbsp;Gross&#146;s continued service to the Company as Chief Executive Officer and/or as a member of the Company&#146;s Board of Directors during the term of the option. </FONT></P>
