<P align="left"><B>Note Concerning Forward-Looking Information</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Some of the information in this Report on Form&nbsp;10-K contains
 forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and
uncertainties. You can identify these statements by
forward-looking words such as &#147;may,&#148; &#147;will,&#148;
&#147;expect,&#148; &#147;anticipate,&#148; &#147;believe,&#148;
&#147;estimate&#148; and &#147;continue&#148; or similar words.
You should read statements that contain these words carefully
because they: (1)&nbsp;discuss our future expectations;
(2)&nbsp;contain projections of our future results of operations
or of our financial condition; or (3)&nbsp;state other
&#147;forward-looking&#148; information. We believe that it is
important to communicate our future expectations to our
investors. However, there may be events in the future that we are
 not able to accurately predict or over which we have no control,
 the occurrence of which could have a material adverse effect on
our business, operating results and financial condition. These
events may include future operating results, our efforts to
address Year 2000 issues and potential competition, among other
things. Factors that might cause actual results to differ
materially from those in such forward-looking statements include,
 but are not limited to, those discussed in Item&nbsp;7.

We offer a broad selection of national brand name and private
label automotive products for domestic and imported cars, vans
and light trucks. Our products include new and remanufactured
automotive replacement parts, maintenance items and accessories.
Most of our sales are to do-it-yourself customers, although our
commercial sales program, focusing on sales to auto repair
professionals and fleet owners, represents a significant and
increasing part of our business. Our stores typically offer
between 13,000 and 17,000 stock-keeping units, or SKUs. Our
operating strategy is to offer our products at everyday low
prices and at conveniently located and attractively designed
stores, supported by highly trained, efficient and courteous
customer service personnel.

<P align="left"><B>Recent Transactions</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
During March&nbsp;2000, we entered into a definitive agreement to
 acquire substantially all of the assets of All-Car Distributors,
 Inc. (&#147;AllCar&#148;), an operator of 22&nbsp;stores in
Wisconsin and Michigan. Under the terms of the agreement, we will
 pay approximately $865,000 in cash for the assets of AllCar and
will assume vendor accounts payable and certain indebtedness and
accrued expenses. The closing, which is subject to the
satisfaction of certain conditions, is expected to occur on
April&nbsp;27, 2000. The acquisition of the 22&nbsp;AllCar stores
 gives us an immediate presence of scale in a strategically
important market adjacent to our current operations. The acquired
 stores will be serviced out of our Minneapolis Distribution
Center and will be converted to the Checker Auto Parts name.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
During January&nbsp;2000, we entered into a definitive agreement
with Advance Auto Parts and Sequoia Capital to form a new joint
venture, PartsAmerica.com, which is expected to become one of the
 largest automotive parts and accessories e-commerce destinations
 in the $90 billion automotive parts and accessories market.
PartsAmerica.com will operate independently from its partners and
 will utilize both CSK&#146;s and Advance&#146;s existing
logistic systems to support its web-based operations.
PartsAmerica.com will offer both retail and commercial customers
the widest available selection of automotive parts and delivery
options, including same-day delivery, local in-store pickup, and
overnight shipment. In addition, because of 50-state coverage,
customers will be able to return or exchange merchandise at their
 local CSK or Advance Auto Parts store. We have contributed the
use of the e-commerce capabilities of our existing web site and
certain other assets to the joint venture. We are a party to a
service agreement with PartsAmerica.com that governs the terms of
 our sale of merchandise to PartsAmerica.com and certain other
services that we are to provide to the joint venture.
PartsAmerica.com is expected to commence operations in
July&nbsp;2000.

On October&nbsp;1, 1999, we acquired the common stock of
Al&#146;s and Grand Auto Supply, Inc. (&#147;AGA&#148;), formerly
 known as PACCAR Automotive, Inc., which operated 194&nbsp;stores
 under the trade names of Al&#146;s Auto Supply and Grand Auto
Supply (collectively, the &#147;AGA stores&#148;) in Washington,
California, Idaho, Oregon, Nevada and Alaska. We paid
approximately $145.6 million in cash for the stock of AGA and
associated transaction costs. The acquisition was funded with
proceeds from our senior credit facility. In connection with the
acquisition, we amended and restated our senior credit facility
to provide an additional $150.0 million of

names and store formats and integrated these stores into our

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
On September&nbsp;7, 1999, we acquired all of the common stock of
 Automotive Information Systems, Inc. (&#147;AIS&#148;). AIS,
based in St. Paul, Minnesota, is a leading provider of diagnostic
 vehicle repair information to automotive technicians, automotive
 replacement parts manufacturers, automotive test equipment
manufacturers, and the do-it-yourself consumer. We paid
approximately $10.3 million in cash for AIS and funded the
acquisition through our senior credit facility.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
On June&nbsp;30, 1999, we acquired substantially all of the
assets of Apsco Products Company dba Big Wheel/ Rossi (&#147;Big
Wheel&#148;), which operated 86&nbsp;stores under the trade name
of Big Wheel/ Rossi in Minnesota, North Dakota and Wisconsin
along with a distribution center in Minnesota. We paid
approximately $62.7 million in cash for substantially all the
assets and assumed certain liabilities and indebtedness of Big
Wheel. The acquisition was funded with proceeds from our senior
credit facility. In connection with the acquisition, we amended
and restated our senior credit facility to provide an additional
$125.0 million of senior term loan borrowing ability. We have
substantially converted the stores to the Checker name and store
format and integrated these stores into our operations.

<P align="left"><B>Automotive Aftermarket Industry</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We are a retailer of aftermarket automotive products such as
replacement parts, maintenance items and accessories. The term
aftermarket distinguishes our sales from those items sold as part
 of the original sale of a car or truck. We believe that the
automotive aftermarket for these items is growing because of

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
There are many companies selling automotive aftermarket products.
 We believe, however, that the industry is consolidating as
national and regional specialty retail chains gain market share
at the expense of smaller independent retailers and less
specialized mass merchandisers. Automotive specialty retailing
chains like ours, which have multiple locations in a given market
 area, enjoy competitive advantages in purchasing, distribution,
advertising and marketing compared to most small independent
retailers. In addition, the recent significant increase in the
variety of domestic and imported vehicle makes and models has
increased the number of automotive replacement parts. This makes
it difficult for smaller independent retailers and less
specialized mass merchandise chains to maintain inventory
selection broad enough to meet customer demands. We believe this
has created a competitive advantage for us and for other
automotive specialty retailing chains that have the distribution
capacity and sophisticated information systems to stock and
deliver a large number of products in a timely manner.

<P align="left"><B>Marketing and Merchandising Strategy</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Our marketing and merchandising strategy is to build market share
 by providing a broad selection of national brand name and
private label products at everyday low prices. We offer these
products at conveniently located and attractively designed
stores, staffed by highly trained, efficient and courteous
employees.

<P align="left"><B>Customer Service</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We are a customer-oriented retailer dedicated primarily to
do-it-yourself consumers with a significant and increasing focus
on commercial customers. We try to enhance customer service by
use of our sophisticated product distribution and store support
systems, as well as our extensive training programs.

<P align="center">3

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We believe that the recruiting, training and retention of high
quality sales associates is required if our business is to be
successful. We operate training and incentive programs to
encourage the development of technical expertise by our sales
associates so they can effectively advise customers on product
selection and use.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
CSK University, our sales associate development program, is
dedicated to the continuous education of store associates through
 structured on-the-job training and formal classroom instruction.
 The curriculum focuses on four areas of the associate&#146;s
development:

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Much of the training is delivered through formal classes in 26
training centers that are fully equipped with the same systems as
 are in our stores. We believe that our training programs enable
sales associates to provide a high level of service to a wide
variety of customers ranging from less informed do-it-yourself
consumers to more sophisticated purchasers requiring diagnostic
advice. We also provide continuing training programs for store
managers and district managers designed to assist them in
increasing store-level efficiency and improving their potential
for promotion. In addition, we require periodic meetings of
district and store managers to facilitate and enhance
communications within our organization. Approximately 2,278 of
our current associates have passed the ASE-P2 test, a nationally
recognized certification for auto parts technicians.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
In order to satisfy our customers, we adopted several service
initiatives including free testing of starters, alternators and
batteries; free charging of batteries; installation assistance
for batteries, windshield wipers and other selected products;
&#147;no hassle&#148; return policies; and electronically
maintained lifetime warranties, which eliminate the need for
consumer record keeping. Our significant investments in associate
 training and store-level information systems enable our in-store
 personnel to devote more time to attending to our
customers&#146; automotive needs.

<P align="left"><B>Product Selection</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Our stores have a broad selection of national brand name products
 in order to generate customer traffic and appeal to our
commercial customers. In addition, we stock a large selection of
high quality private label products that appeal to
value-conscious customers. Each store offers an extensive product
 line, including automotive replacement parts such as starters,
alternators, shock absorbers, mufflers, brakes, spark plugs,
filters and batteries, as well as a wide variety of maintenance
items, such as motor oil, lubricants, waxes, cleaners, polishes
and antifreeze. In addition, each store offers general
accessories such as car stereos, alarms, trim, floor mats, tools
and seat covers. Sales of replacement parts account for
approximately 60% of our sales. Replacement parts typically
generate higher gross profit margins than maintenance items or
general accessories. We are increasing our sales of replacement
parts, as a percentage of total sales, by offering a wider
selection of replacement parts and by increasing sales to
commercial customers.

<P align="left"><B>Product Availability</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Our stores offer between 13,000 and 17,000 SKUs of national brand
 name and private label automotive products. If a store does not
carry a specific part, store associates are able to use our
surround store inventory program to record the sale, reserve the
part and direct the customer to pick it up from a store in the
same market or at one of our nearby depots.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We continue to expand and improve our delivery system and we have
 increased our number of strategically located priority parts
depots to 44 and increased product selection through an increased
 SKU mix and access to our on-line local warehouse network. This
has led to better customer service by making available up to an
additional 200,000 products on a same-day delivery basis to over
75% of our stores and 1,000,000 additional products on a next-day
 delivery basis to all of our stores. This has also allowed us to
 increase sales to

<P align="center">4

<!-- PAGEBREAK -->
<P><HR noshade><P>

<DIV align="left">
commercial accounts due to the availability of a greater number
of replacement parts. Our priority parts operation handles
approximately 250,000 inquiries each week. Store associates are
able to electronically inquire on price and availability and
order parts from the priority parts depots through our electronic
 parts catalog and receive immediate confirmation of availability
 without having to make telephone inquiries.
</DIV>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We have classified our product mix into 120 separate categories
through a merchandising program designed to determine the optimal
 inventory mix at each individual store based on that
store&#146;s historical sales. We believe that we can improve
store sales, gross profit margin and inventory turnover by
tailoring individual store inventory mix based on historical
sales patterns for each of the 120 product categories.

<P align="left"><B>Pricing</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Our pricing philosophy is that we should not lose a customer
because of price. Our pricing strategy is to offer everyday low
prices at each of our stores. Part of this strategy is to beat
any competitor&#146;s lower price by 5%. As a result, we closely
monitor our competitors&#146; pricing levels through our
precision pricing program, which analyzes prices at the store
level rather than at the market or chain level. This initiative
enables us to establish pricing levels at each store based upon
that store&#146;s local market competition. Our entry-level
products offer excellent value by meeting standard quality
requirements at low prices. In addition, our sales associates are
 encouraged to offer alternative products at slightly higher
price points. These products typically provide extra features,
improved performance, an enhanced warranty or are of national
brand recognition.

<P align="left"><B>Advertising</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We support our marketing and merchandising strategy through print
 advertising, in-store promotional displays and an increasing
emphasis on radio and television advertising. The print
advertising consists of monthly color circulars that are produced
 by our in-house advertising department and that contain
redeemable coupons. We also advertise on radio, television and
billboards primarily to reinforce our image and name recognition.
 Television advertising is targeted to sports programming and
radio advertising is primarily aired during commuting hours.
Advertising efforts include Spanish language television and radio
 as well as bilingual store signage. In-store signs and displays
are used to promote products, identify departments, and to
announce store specials. We also sponsor two National Hot Rod
Association Funny Cars and have been designated the
&#147;Official Auto Parts Store of the NHRA.&#148; We have web
sites on the Internet at:

<P align="left"><B>Store-Based Information Systems</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Over the past several years, we have installed several
store-level information systems, which have improved store labor
productivity and customer service. These systems are described
below.

<P align="left"><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;Electronic Parts Catalog</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Our electronic parts catalog is a software-based system that
identifies the location and availability of over one and a half
million parts. The electronic parts catalog is a user-friendly
tool that enables our sales associates to assist customers in
parts selection and ordering based on simple input of the year,
model, engine type and application needed. Once provided with
this basic information, the electronic parts catalog displays
which part is needed and whether it is located in the store. In
the event a particular product is unavailable at a store, the
electronic parts catalog indicates whether it can be obtained at
a nearby store, priority parts depot, through

<DIV align="left">
certain warehouse distributors with same-day delivery or directly
 from the manufacturer. Information about the customer&#146;s car
 can be entered into a permanent customer database that can be
instantly accessed whenever the customer visits or phones the
store. The electronic parts catalog also displays related parts
that the sales associates can recommend to the customer for
purchase and prints parts lists for the customer. Our electronic
parts catalog system is integrated with our point of sale system
and centralized database. This integration improves customer
service by:

</TABLE>

<P align="left"><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;Point of Sale System</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We have installed a point of sale system consisting of cash
registers and sophisticated software in all of our stores, which
electronically record and report customer transactions and are
tied to our electronic parts catalog and the central inventory
system. This point of sale system improves store productivity and
 customer service by streamlining in-store procedures and
eliminating handwritten record keeping. This system also allows
for paperless transactions and electronic updating of warranty
information. In addition, the point of sale software tracks the
history of individual customer purchases for use in regionalized
marketing and merchandising programs.

<P align="left"><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;Retail Paperless Management System</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Our retail paperless management system is a store-based software
system used to improve store efficiency. This system provides for
 interactive store associate development and testing,
communication via company-wide e-mail, knowledge-based
interviewing of associate applicants, automated associate time
and attendance recording and forms automation.

<P align="left"><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;Labor Scheduling System</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We utilize a sophisticated labor scheduling system that allocates
 labor hours based on factors including forecasted sales and
customer traffic counts. We believe this system enables us to
provide superior customer service while providing for improved
labor productivity.

<P align="left"><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;Satellite Communications Network</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Our satellite communications network links all of our stores with
 our corporate office. The satellite network enables us to
efficiently obtain and deliver to our stores all file transfers,
including pricing down-loads, sales information updates and
interactive transactions such as electronic parts ordering. The
system also broadcasts common files to all stores simultaneously
to update our electronics parts catalog. In addition, the
satellite network significantly increases the speed of credit
card and check authorization.

<P align="left"><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;Call Center</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Our centralized call center provides store personnel at selected
high-volume stores the option to reroute customer calls to a
central location during the store&#146;s busiest hours of
operation. Call center associates perform all functions that
store personnel normally handle, such as store-specific parts
look-up, price look-up and inventory availability verification.
Associates in the call center can take an order from a customer
and electronically transmit it to the store, so that the customer
 can pick up the requested product at his local store. Use of the
 call center allows sales associates to give their undivided
attention to customers at the store while call-in customers are
serviced directly by call center associates.

Our stores are generally open seven days a week, with hours from
8:00&nbsp;a.m. to 9:00&nbsp;p.m. (9:00&nbsp;a.m. to
6:00&nbsp;p.m. on Sundays). The average store employs
approximately 10 to 20&nbsp;employees, including a store manager,
 two assistant store managers and a staff of full-time and
part-time employees.

<P align="left"><B>Store Formats</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Our stores are generally located in high visibility, high traffic
 strip shopping centers or in freestanding units adjacent to
strip shopping centers. The stores, which range in size from
2,600 to 24,000 square feet, average approximately 7,200 square
feet in size and offer between 13,000 and 17,000 SKUs.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We have three prototype store designs which are 6,000, 7,000 and
8,000 square feet in size. The store size for a given new
location is selected based upon sales volume expectations
determined through demographics and the detailed market analysis
that we prepare as part of our site selection process. The
following table categorizes our stores by size, as of
January&nbsp;30, 2000:

Approximately 61% of our stores are freestanding, with the
balance principally located within strip shopping centers.
Approximately 85% to 90% of each store&#146;s square footage is
selling space, of which approximately 40% to 50% is dedicated to
automotive replacement parts inventory. The replacement parts
inventory area is fronted by a counter staffed by knowledgeable
parts personnel and is equipped with the electronic parts
catalog. The remaining selling space contains gondolas for
accessories and maintenance items,

We have identified most of our stores smaller than 5,000 square
feet as future relocation or expansion priorities.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Our market strategy group, which is a part of our real estate
department, utilizes a sophisticated, market-based approach that
identifies and analyzes potential store locations based on
detailed demographic and competitive studies. These demographic
and competitive studies include analysis of population density,
growth patterns, age, per capita income, vehicle traffic counts
and the number and type of existing automotive-related
facilities, such as automotive parts stores and other competitors
 within a pre-determined radius of the potential new location.
These potential locations are compared to our existing locations
to determine opportunities for opening new stores and relocating
or expanding existing stores.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We believe that the large number of small operators in our
industry has enabled us to effectively pursue an opportunistic
acquisition strategy. We focus our acquisition efforts in
(1)&nbsp;existing markets to achieve further market penetration
in a timely and cost-effective manner without adding additional
retail square footage; and (2)&nbsp;contiguous markets to permit
further leveraging of our established infrastructure over an
increasing sales base.

We believe that substantial growth opportunities exist in our
current markets and that our store growth strategy will increase
our name recognition and market penetration while we benefit from
 economies of scale in advertising, management and distribution
costs. We opened, relocated, or expanded 119 stores in fiscal
1999 as compared to 130 stores in fiscal 1998. We plan to
continue our store growth strategy and expect to open, acquire,
relocate or expand approximately 100 stores in fiscal 2000. As of
 January&nbsp;30, 2000, we had executed purchase contracts or
leases for 33 sites, were in various stages of negotiation for 41
 additional sites and had identified numerous potential
additional sites for store growth. New stores generally become
profitable during the first year of operation.

<P align="left"><B>Commercial Sales Program</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
In addition to our primary focus on serving the do-it-yourself
consumer, we have significantly increased our marketing efforts
to the commercial customer in the automotive replacement parts
market. The

<P align="center">9

<!-- PAGEBREAK -->
<P><HR noshade><P>

<DIV align="left">
commercial market constitutes in excess of 50% of the annual
sales in the automotive aftermarket and is currently growing at a
 faster rate than the do-it-yourself market. Our commercial sales
 program, which is intended to facilitate penetration of this
market, is targeted to professional mechanics, auto repair shops,
 auto dealers, fleet owners, mass and general merchandisers with
auto repair facilities and other commercial repair outlets
located near our stores.
</DIV>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We have made a significant commitment to this portion of our
business and upgraded the information systems capabilities
available to the commercial sales group. In addition, we employ
one district sales manager for approximately every five stores
that have a commercial sales center. A district sales manager is
responsible for servicing existing commercial accounts and
developing new commercial accounts. In addition, at a minimum
each commercial sales center has a dedicated in-store
salesperson, driver and delivery vehicle.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We believe we are well positioned to effectively and profitably
service commercial customers, who typically require a higher
level of customer service and broad product availability. The
commercial market has traditionally been serviced primarily by
jobbers. Recently, however, automotive specialty retailing
chains, such as our company, have entered the commercial market.
The chains typically have multiple locations in given market
areas and maintain a broad inventory selection. We believe we
have significant competitive advantages in servicing the
commercial market because of our experienced sales associates,
conveniently located stores, attractive pricing and ability to
consistently deliver a broad product offering with an emphasis on
 national brand names.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
As of January&nbsp;30, 2000, we operated commercial service
centers in 554 of our stores. Our sales to commercial accounts
(including sales by stores without commercial service centers)
increased 40% to $217.7 million in fiscal 1999 from $155.8
million in fiscal 1998.

<P align="left"><B>Purchasing</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Merchandise is selected from over 300 suppliers and purchased for
 all stores by personnel at our corporate headquarters in
Phoenix, Arizona. No one class of product and no single supplier
accounted for as much as 10% of our purchases in fiscal 1999.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Our inventory management systems include the E-3 Trim Buying
System, which provides inventory movement forecasting based upon
history, trend and seasonality. Combined with service level
goals, vendor lead times and cost of inventory assumptions, the
E-3 Trim Buying System determines the timing and size of purchase
 orders. Approximately 90% of the dollar value of transactions
are sent via electronic data interchange, with the remainder
being sent by a computer facsimile interface. Our store
replenishment system generates orders based upon store on-hand
and store model stock. This includes an automatic model stock
adjustment system utilizing historical sales, seasonality and
store presentation requirements. We also can allocate seasonal
and promotional merchandise based upon a store&#146;s history of
prior promotional and seasonal sales.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Our stores offer products with nationally recognized,
well-advertised brand names, such as Armor All, Autolite, AC
Delco, Castrol, Dayco, Exide, Fel Pro, Fram, Havoline, Mobil,
Monroe, Pennzoil, Prestone, Quaker State, RayBestos, Stant,
Sylvania, Turtle Wax and Valvoline. In addition to brand name
products, our stores carry a wide variety of high quality private
 label products. Because most of such products are produced by
nationally recognized manufacturers that produce similar brand
name products that enjoy a high degree of consumer acceptance, we
 believe that our private label products are of a quality that is
 comparable to such brand name products.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We have increased our gross profit margin over the last several
years primarily as a result of obtaining lower product
acquisition costs, more favorable vendor terms, cash discounts
from vendors, efficiencies from our warehouse and distribution
system and improvements in product mix. We believe that the
improved vendor terms are primarily the result of our improved
financial performance and growth in our store count and purchase
volume. Our gross profit margin increased from 44.6% of net sales
 in fiscal 1997 to 48.3% of net sales in fiscal 1999.

<P align="left"><B>Warehouse and Distribution</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Our warehouse and distribution system utilizes bar coding, radio
frequency scanners and sophisticated conveyor and put-to-light
systems. We instituted engineered labor standards and incentive
programs in each of our distribution centers which have
contributed to improved labor productivity. Each store is
currently serviced by one of our three main distribution centers,
 with the regional distribution centers handling bulk materials,
such as oil. All of our merchandise is shipped by vendors to our
distribution centers, with the exception of batteries, which are
shipped directly to stores by the vendor. We have sufficient
warehouse and distribution capacity to meet the requirements of
our growth plans for the foreseeable future.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The following table sets forth certain information relating to
our three main distribution centers as of January&nbsp;30, 2000:

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We have the ability to expand the Phoenix distribution center by
approximately 80,000 square feet and the Dixon distribution
center by 160,000 square feet should the need arise to do so.

<P align="left"><B>Associates</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
As of January&nbsp;30, 2000, we employed approximately 9,890
full-time associates and 4,920 part-time associates.
Approximately 86% of the personnel are employed in store level
operations, 7% in distribution and 7% in our corporate
headquarters, including our call center and priority parts
operation.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We have never experienced any material labor disruption and
believe that our labor relations are good. Except for
approximately 700 associates located at 75 stores in the Northern
 California market, who have been represented by two unions for
many years, none of our personnel are represented by a labor
union.

<P align="left"><B>Competition</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We compete principally in the do-it-yourself sector of the
automotive aftermarket which is highly fragmented and generally
very competitive. We compete primarily with national and regional
 retail automotive parts chains (such as AutoZone, Inc. and The
Pep Boys&nbsp;&#151; Manny, Moe and Jack, Inc.), wholesalers or
jobber stores (some of which are associated with national
automotive parts distributors or associations, such as NAPA),
automobile dealers and mass merchandisers that carry automotive
replacement parts, maintenance items and accessories (such as
Wal-Mart Stores, Inc.). We believe that chains of automotive
parts stores like ours, with multiple locations in regional
markets, have competitive advantages in marketing, product
selection, purchasing and distribution, as compared to
independent retailers and jobbers that are not part of a chain or
 associated with other retailers or jobbers. We believe that, as
a result of these advantages, national and regional chains have
been gaining market share in recent years at the expense of
independent retailers and jobbers.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The principal competitive factors that affect our business are
store location, customer service, product selection,
availability, quality and price. While we believe that we compete
 effectively in our various markets, certain competitors are
larger in terms of number of stores and sales volume, have
greater financial and management resources and have been
operating longer in certain geographic areas.

<P align="left"><B>Trade Names, Service Marks and Trademarks</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We own and have registered the service mark
&#147;Schuck&#146;s&#148; with the United States Patent and
Trademark Office for use in connection with the automotive parts
retailing business. We have the right to use the tradenames
&#147;Checker&#148; (in connection with the automotive parts
retailing business) and &#147;Kragen.&#148; In addition, we own
and have registered numerous trademarks with respect to many of
our private label products. We believe that our various
tradenames, service marks and trademarks are important to our
merchandising strategy, but that our business is not otherwise
dependent on any particular service mark, tradename or trademark.
 There are no infringing uses known by us that materially affect
the use of such marks.

<P align="left"><B>Environmental Matters</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We are subject to various federal, state and local laws and
governmental regulations relating to the operation of our
business, including those governing recycling of batteries and
used lubricants, and regarding ownership and operation of real
property. We handle hazardous materials during our operations,
and our customers may also use or bring hazardous materials onto
our properties. In addition, in a small number of recently
acquired store locations we service automobiles and we sublease
to third parties other pre-existing service bays. These service
bays are required to dispose of certain items, including used
batteries, lubricants and oils in accordance with applicable
environmental regulations. We currently provide a recycling
program for batteries and for the collection of used lubricants
at certain of our stores as a service to our customers pursuant
to agreements with third-party vendors. Pursuant to the
agreements, the batteries and used lubricants are collected by
our associates, deposited into vendor-supplied containers/pallets
 and then disposed of by the third-party vendors. Our agreements
with such vendors are designed to limit our potential liability
under applicable environmental regulations for any harm caused by
 the batteries and lubricants to off-site properties or even
on-site when such failure is the fault of the vendor. Many of the
 agreements provide us with indemnification against liability
that we may incur in connection with the disposal of such items.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Under environmental laws, a current or previous owner or operator
 of real property may be liable for the cost of removal or
remediation of hazardous or toxic substances on, under, or in
such property. Such laws often impose joint and several liability
 and may be imposed without regard to whether the owner or
operator knew of, or was responsible for, the release of such
hazardous or toxic substances. We do not believe that compliance
with such laws and regulations has had a material impact on our
operations to date, but there can be no assurance that future
compliance with such laws and regulations will not have a
material adverse effect on us.

Additional information regarding our facilities appears in

<P align="left"><B>Item&nbsp;3.&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Legal Proceedings</I></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
On May&nbsp;4, 1998, a lawsuit was filed against us in the
Superior Court in San Diego, California. The case was brought by
two former store managers and a former senior assistant manager.
It purports to be a class action for all present and former
California store managers and senior assistant managers and seeks
 overtime pay for a period beginning in May&nbsp;1995 as well as
injunctive relief requiring overtime pay in the future. We have
also been served with two other lawsuits purporting to be class
actions filed in California state courts in Orange and Fresno
Counties by thirteen other former and current employees. These
lawsuits include similar claims to the San Diego lawsuit, except
that they also include claims for unfair business practices which
 seek overtime from October&nbsp;1994. The Orange County lawsuit
initially included claims for punitive damages and unlawful
conversion, but the Court subsequently dismissed both of these
claims.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The three cases have been &#147;coordinated&#148; before one
judge in San Diego County. Discovery has been conducted by the
parties. On January&nbsp;19, 2000, as amended on January&nbsp;27,
 2000, the judge issued an order allowing the coordinated
lawsuits to proceed as class actions, with class periods of
May&nbsp;1994 through January&nbsp;2000 for store managers and
October&nbsp;1994 through July&nbsp;1997 for senior assistant
managers. We filed a Petition for Writ of Mandate seeking
appellate review of the foregoing order which was not successful.
 On March&nbsp;23, 2000, we filed a Petition for Review by the
California Supreme Court to have the trial court&#146;s order
reversed.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Although we cannot estimate the potential loss or range of loss
at this time, if these cases are permitted to proceed as class
actions and are decided against us, we believe that the aggregate
 potential exposure could be material to results of operations or
 cash flows for the year in which the cases are ultimately
decided. However, we do not believe that such an adverse outcome,
 if it were to happen, would materially affect our financial
position, operations or cash flows in subsequent periods.
Although at this stage in the litigation it is difficult to
predict its outcome with any certainty, we believe that there are
 meritorious defenses to these cases and intend to defend them
vigorously.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We were served on March&nbsp;8, 2000 with a complaint filed in
Federal Court in the Eastern District of New York by the
Coalition for a Level Playing Field, L.L.C. and 179 individual
auto parts dealers alleging that we and seven other auto parts
dealers (AutoZone, Inc., Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., Advance Stores
Company, Inc., Discount Auto, Inc., The Pep Boys&nbsp;&#151;
Manny, Moe and Jack, Inc., O&#146;Reilly Automotive, Inc., and
Keystone Automotive Operations, Inc.) violated the
Robinson-Patman Act. Only 14 of the individual plaintiffs
asserted claims against us, and three of those have voluntarily
dismissed their claims without prejudice. The complaint alleges
that we and other defendants knowingly either induced or received
 discriminatory prices from large suppliers, allegedly in
violation of Section&nbsp;2(a) and 2(f) of the Robinson-Patman
Act, as well as receiving

<P align="center">13

<!-- PAGEBREAK -->
<P><HR noshade><P>

<DIV align="left">
compensation from large suppliers for services not performed for
those suppliers, allegedly in violation of Section&nbsp;2(c) of
the Robinson-Patman Act. The complaint seeks injunctive relief
against all defendants and seeks treble damages on behalf of the
individual auto parts dealers who are plaintiffs, plus
attorneys&#146; fees. The complaint alleges that the estimated
average damage amount per plaintiff is $1,000,000 (and more for
those plaintiffs that are wholesale distributors and not simply
jobbers) before trebling. We believe the suit is without merit
and plan to vigorously defend it.
</DIV>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We currently and from time to time are involved in other
litigation incidental to the conduct of our business. The damages
 claimed in some of this litigation are substantial. Although the
 amount of liability that may result from these matters cannot be
 ascertained, we do not currently believe that, in the aggregate,
 they will result in liabilities material to our consolidated
financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

	EBITDA represents income before net interest expense, provision
	for income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, other
	non-cash charges, extraordinary items and non-recurring charges.
	While EBITDA is not intended to represent cash flow from
	operations as defined by GAAP (and should not be considered as an
	 indicator of operating performance or an alternative to cash
	flow (as measured by GAAP)), it is included herein because we
	believe it is a meaningful measure which provides additional
	information with respect to our ability to meet our future debt
	service, capital expenditure and working capital requirements.
	EBITDA has been calculated as described above in accordance with
	the terms of the indenture under which our 11% Senior
	Subordinated Notes were issued and may differ in method of
	calculation from similarly titled measures used by other
	companies.</TD>

Gross profit consists primarily of net sales less the cost of
sales and warehouse and distribution expenses. Gross profit as a
percentage of net sales may be affected by variations in our
product mix, price changes in response to competitive factors and
 fluctuations in merchandise costs and vendor programs.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Operating and administrative expenses are comprised of store
payroll, store occupancy, advertising expenses, other store
expenses and general and administrative expenses, including
salaries and related benefits of corporate employees,
administrative office occupancy expenses, data processing,
professional expenses and other related expenses.

<P align="left"><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;Fiscal 1999 Compared to Fiscal 1998</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Net sales for fiscal 1999 increased $227.1 million, or 22.6%,
over net sales for fiscal 1998, primarily reflecting an increase
in the number of stores operated and a comparable store sales
increase of 4%. During the third quarter of fiscal 1999, we
acquired 194 Al&#146;s Auto Supply and Grand Auto Supply stores
from Al&#146;s and Grand Auto Supply, Inc. formerly known as
PACCAR Automotive, Inc. During the second quarter of fiscal 1999,
 we acquired 86 former Big Wheel stores from Apsco Products
Company. The acquired stores contributed $101.5 million of net
sales during the portion of the year that we owned them. In
addition to the AGA and Big Wheel stores, during fiscal 1999 we
opened 84 new stores, relocated 26 stores and expanded 9 stores.
We closed 77 stores including those closed due to relocation, of
which 37 were acquired stores. At January&nbsp;30, 2000, we had
1,120 stores in operation compared to 807 stores at the end of
fiscal 1998.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Gross profit for fiscal 1999 was $595.2 million, or 48.3% of net
sales, compared to $473.3 million, or 47.1% of net sales, for
fiscal 1998. The increase in gross profit percentage primarily
resulted from our ability to

obtain generally better pricing and more favorable terms and
support from our vendors due to increased purchase volume and
improved financial performance.
</DIV>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Operating and administrative expenses increased by $79.8 million
to $471.3 million, or 38.3% of net sales, for fiscal 1999 from
$391.5 million, or 39.0% of net sales, for fiscal 1998. The
increase in dollar value is primarily the result of the operating
 costs of new stores. The decrease as a percent of sales resulted
 from a leveraging of fixed costs over an expanded sales base.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Operating profit increased to $86.8 million, or 7.1% of net
sales, for fiscal 1999, compared to $74.0 million, or 7.4% of net
 sales, for fiscal 1998. During fiscal 1999, we incurred $30.2
million of non-recurring expenses associated with the integration
 and conversion of the AGA and Big Wheel stores into our
operations, $2.5 million of store closing costs for CSK Auto
stores that were identified for closure due to overlap with
certain acquired stores, $1.9 million of goodwill amortization
relating to our recent acquisitions and $2.4 million of other
store closing costs. Operating profit for fiscal 1998 was
affected by $3.1 million of expenses associated with the
integration of the Trak West stores, a $3.6 million non-recurring
 charge associated with the termination of a management agreement
 as a result of our IPO and $0.8 million of costs associated with
 our Secondary Offering.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Interest expense for fiscal 1999 increased to $41.3 million from
$30.7 million for fiscal 1998. The expense increased primarily as
 a result of the additional indebtedness incurred to fund the AGA
 and Big Wheel Acquisitions.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Income tax expense for fiscal 1999 was $17.4 million, compared to
 income tax expense of $15.7 million in fiscal 1998. Our
effective tax rate increased during the 1999 period to
approximately 38% of pre-tax income from approximately 36% in
fiscal 1998 as a result of certain tax credits that were realized
 in the prior year which were not available in the current year.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Fiscal 1999 was affected by a charge of $0.7 million, net of
income tax, relating to the cumulative effect of a change in
accounting principle associated with the adoption of
SOP&nbsp;98-5, &#147;Reporting on the Cost of Start-up
Activities.&#148; See Note&nbsp;2 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
As a result of the factors cited above, net income increased in
fiscal 1999 to $27.4 million, or $0.96 per diluted share,
compared to net income for fiscal 1998 of $20.7 million, or $0.75
 per diluted share. Additionally, earnings before interest,
taxes, depreciation and amortization (&#147;EBITDA&#148;)
increased by $45.1 million to $149.0 million in fiscal 1999
compared to $103.9 million in fiscal 1998.

<P align="left"><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;Fiscal 1998 Compared to Fiscal 1997</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Net sales for fiscal 1998 increased $158.6 million, or 18.7%,
over net sales for fiscal 1997, primarily reflecting an increase
in the number of stores operated. Our comparable store sales
increased $17.5 million, or 2%. Our new stores contributed $138.9
 million to the increase in net sales for the fiscal year,
including $84.3 million in net sales contributed by the stores
acquired in the Trak West Acquisition. During fiscal 1998, we
opened 94 stores, relocated 31 stores, expanded 5 stores,
acquired 2 stores and closed 7 stores in addition to those closed
 due to relocation. As a result, we operated 807 stores at the
end of fiscal 1998 compared to 718 stores at the end of fiscal
1997.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Gross profit for fiscal 1998 was $473.3 million, or 47.1% of net
sales, compared to $377.6 million, or 44.6% of net sales, for
fiscal 1997. The increase in gross profit percentage primarily
resulted from our ability to obtain generally better pricing and
more favorable terms and support from our vendors due to
increased purchase volume, improved financial performance and
stronger capitalization.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Operating and administrative expenses increased by $65.3 million
to $391.5 million, or 39.0% of net sales, for fiscal 1998 from
$326.2 million, or 38.6% of net sales, for fiscal 1997. The
increase is primarily the result of the operating costs of new
stores that are in the early stages of maturation and the
operating costs of the Trak West stores, which exceed our
company-wide average as a percent of sales.

<P align="center">21

Operating profit increased to $74.0 million, or 7.4% of net
sales, for fiscal 1998, compared to $45.5 million, or 5.3% of net
 sales, for fiscal 1997. During the first quarter of 1998, we
incurred $3.1 million of expenses associated with the integration
 of the Trak West stores and a $3.6 million non-recurring charge
associated with the termination of a management agreement as a
result of our IPO. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 1998, we
incurred $0.8 million of costs in connection with the Secondary
Offering. Operating profit for fiscal 1997 was affected by $3.4
million of expenses associated with the integration of the Trak
West stores and by $0.9 million of stock-based compensation
expense.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Interest expense for fiscal 1998 decreased to $30.7 million from
$40.7 million for fiscal 1997. The expense decreased primarily as
 the result of the early retirement of approximately $147.6
million of outstanding debt with the proceeds of our IPO. The
retirement of this debt also produced an extraordinary loss of
$6.8 million, net of tax, which consisted primarily of prepayment
 premiums paid in connection with the redemption of debt and the
write-off of a portion of deferred debt issuance costs.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Income tax expense for fiscal 1998 was $15.7 million compared to
income tax expense of $1.6 million in fiscal 1997.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
As a result of the factors cited above, net income increased in
fiscal 1998 to $20.7 million, $0.75 per diluted share, from a net
 loss for fiscal 1997 of $0.8 million, or $0.04 per diluted
share. Additionally, earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization (&#147;EBITDA&#148;) increased by
$33.7 million to $103.9 million in fiscal 1998, compared to $70.2
 million in fiscal 1997.

<P align="left"><B>Liquidity and Capital Resources</B>

<P align="left"><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;Overview</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Our primary cash requirements include working capital (primarily
inventory), debt service obligations and capital expenditures. We
 intend to finance our cash requirements with cash flows from
operations, funds from our leasing facility and borrowings under
our revolving credit facility. At January&nbsp;30, 2000, we had
net working capital of approximately $456.6 million and total
liquidity (cash plus availability under our revolving credit
facility) of approximately $44.9 million. We also have access to
an off-balance sheet operating lease facility that is used to
finance new store construction. The facility provides up to
$112.2 million of funding for the acquisition and development of
up to 94 new stores through December&nbsp;31, 2000. As of
January&nbsp;30, 2000, $4.6 million of this $112.2 million
leasing facility had been utilized. Under a similar agreement
that expired on May&nbsp;31, 1999 with respect to the addition of
 new stores, we had approximately $87.6 million committed, with
$10.5 million remaining to be funded for stores that were
previously identified for development but not completed by
May&nbsp;31, 1999. We believe that cash flow from operations
combined with the availability of funds under the leasing
facility and the revolving credit facility will be sufficient to
support our operations and liquidity requirements for the
foreseeable future.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
In fiscal 1999, net cash used in operating activities was $4.0
million, compared to $3.4 million of cash provided by operating
activities during fiscal 1998. The largest component of the
change in cash flow from operating activities relates to our
investment in inventories, where $93.6 million of cash was used
during fiscal 1999 compared to $45.8 million used for such
purposes during fiscal 1998. The increase in inventories reflects
 the Big Wheel and AGA Acquisitions, the increase in number of
stores operated, and an expanded product selection in support of
our commercial sales program. In addition, net income increased
by $6.7 million, partially offsetting the use of cash for
inventories.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Net cash used in investing activities totaled $260.2 million in
fiscal 1999, compared to $37.5 million in fiscal 1998. The
increase in cash used in investing activities was primarily the
result of $218.2 million used in the Big Wheel, AGA and AIS
Acquisitions.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $268.5 million
in fiscal 1999 compared to $36.8 million in fiscal 1998. In 1999,
 we used $283.7 million of net borrowings under the Senior Credit
 Facility primarily relating to the Big Wheel, AGA and AIS
Acquisitions, incurred $4.7 million of debt issuance costs, made
payments of $10.9 million on capital lease obligations, received
$0.4 million of stockholder receivables, received $0.8 million in
 proceeds from stock option exercises and paid $0.7 in connection
 with other financing

activities. In the 1998 period, we borrowed $126.0 million under
the Senior Credit Facility, made payments of debt of $87.1
million, made payments of capital lease obligations of $8.6
million, received $0.2 million of stockholder receivables and
paid $0.2 million in connection with other financing activities.
In addition, during the 1998 period we received gross proceeds of
 $172.5 million in connection with our IPO, which were applied as
 follows: (1)&nbsp;$13.9 million to pay underwriters&#146;
discounts and other transaction costs; (2)&nbsp;$50.0 million to
retire all of our outstanding 12% Subordinated Notes;
(3)&nbsp;$43.8 million to retire certain of the 11% Senior
Subordinated Notes; (4)&nbsp;$53.8 million to pay certain
outstanding balances under the Senior Credit Facility; and
(5)&nbsp;$4.9 million to pay premiums in connection with the
retirement of certain of the aforementioned debt instruments and
the balance to pay accrued interest and for general corporate
purposes.
</DIV>

<P align="left"><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;Store Acquisitions</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
In June&nbsp;1999, we paid approximately $62.7 million in cash
for substantially all the assets and assumed certain current
liabilities and indebtedness of Big Wheel. The acquisition was
funded with proceeds from our senior credit facility. In
connection with the acquisition, we amended and restated our
senior credit facility to provide an additional $125.0 million of
 senior term loan borrowing ability. We used $64.4 million, which
 included $1.7 million in debt issuance costs, of this facility
in conjunction with the Big Wheel acquisition and the remaining
$60.6 million was used to fund transition costs and to reduce the
 balance of the revolving credit portion of our senior credit
facility.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We have converted the Big Wheel stores to the Checker name and
store format and integrated these stores into our operations. In
connection with the integration of the Big Wheel stores, we will
incur one-time transition and integration expenses estimated to
be $12.5 million, consisting primarily of grand opening
advertising, training and re-merchandising costs. Approximately
$8.9 million of such expenses were incurred during fiscal 1999
with the balance expected to be incurred during the first quarter
 of fiscal 2000. In addition, we will incur one-time capital
expenditures estimated to be $3.2 million, consisting primarily
of expenditures related to equipment, store fixtures, signage and
 the installation of our store-level information systems in the
Big Wheel stores. Approximately $3.0 million of such capital
expenditures were incurred during fiscal 1999 with the balance
expected to be incurred during the first quarter of fiscal 2000.
During the fourth quarter we revised our estimates for transition
 and integration expenses and capital expenditures. Expected
transition and integration expenses increased from our original
estimate of $7.0 million to $12.5 million and expected capital
expenditures decreased from our original estimate of $6.0 million
 to $3.2 million. We have revised our estimates as a result of a
change in our transition plan that allows for: (1)&nbsp;higher
training and re-merchandising costs, resulting from increased
labor hours and store set-up rates, and (2)&nbsp;lower capital
expenditures, resulting from an increased allocation of existing
equipment and greater utilization of operating lease facilities.
As a result of the change in the transition plan, our overall
conversion budget increased by $2.7 million.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
In October&nbsp;1999, we paid approximately $145.6 million in
cash for the common stock of AGA and associated transaction
costs. The acquisition was funded with proceeds from our senior
credit facility. In connection with the acquisition, we amended
and restated our senior credit facility to provide an additional
$150.0 million of senior term loan borrowing ability. We used
$148.6 million, which included $3.0 million in debt issuance
costs, of this facility in conjunction with the AGA Acquisition
and the remaining $1.4 million was used to fund transition costs
and working capital needs.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We have converted the AGA stores that we acquired to the Checker,
 Schuck&#146;s and Kragen names and store formats and integrated
these stores into our operations. In connection with the
integration of the AGA stores, we will incur one-time transition
and integration expenses estimated to be $28.8 million,
consisting primarily of grand opening advertising, training and
re-merchandising costs. Approximately $21.3 million of such
expenses were incurred during fiscal 1999 with the balance
expected to be incurred during the first quarter of fiscal 2000.
In addition, we will incur one-time capital expenditures
estimated to be $5.6 million, consisting primarily of
expenditures related to equipment, store fixtures, signage and
the installation of our store-level information systems in the
AGA stores. Approximately $2.0 million of such capital
expenditures were incurred during fiscal 1999 with the balance
expected to be incurred during the first quarter of fiscal 2000.
During the fourth quarter we revised our estimates for transition
 and integration expenses and capital

<P align="center">23

<DIV align="left">
expenditures. Expected transition and integration expenses
increased from our original estimate of $21.8 million to $28.8
million and expected capital expenditures decreased from our
original estimate of $13.2 million to $5.6 million. We have
revised our estimates as a result of a change in our transition
plan that allows for: (1)&nbsp;higher training and
re-merchandising costs, resulting from increased labor hours and
store set-up rates, and (2)&nbsp;lower capital expenditures,
resulting from an increased allocation of existing equipment and
greater utilization of operating lease facilities. As a result of
 the change in the transition plan, our overall conversion budget
 decreased by $0.6 million.
</DIV>

<P align="left"><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;Expansion</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We opened 119 new, relocated or expanded stores in fiscal 1999
and 130 new, relocated or expanded stores in fiscal 1998. We
expect to open, acquire, relocate or expand approximately 100
stores in fiscal 2000. We anticipate that the majority of these
new, relocated or expanded stores will be financed by our lease
facility under arrangements structured as operating leases that
require no net capital expenditures except for fixtures and store
 equipment. For the remainder of our planned new, relocated or
expanded stores, we expect to spend approximately $125,000 per
store for leasehold improvements. In addition to capital
expenditures, each new store will require an estimated investment
 in working capital, principally for inventories, of
approximately $300,000. New stores generally become profitable
during the first full year of operations.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
In addition to capital expenditures for new stores, we expect to
spend approximately $6.5 million over the next year for
information systems hardware and software. Our debt service
requirements in 2000 include scheduled principal reductions of
approximately $13.2 million.

<P align="left"><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;Store Closing Costs</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We provide an allowance for estimated costs and losses to be
incurred in connection with store closures. For stores to be
closed, such costs are recognized when a store is specifically
identified, costs can be estimated and closure is planned to be
completed within the next twelve months (prior to
January&nbsp;31, 1999, eighteen months). For stores to be
relocated, such costs are recognized when an agreement for the
new location has been reached with a landlord and site plans meet
 preliminary municipal approvals. The allowance for store closing
 costs is included in accrued expenses in the accompanying
financial statements, and consists primarily of future rents to
be paid over the remaining terms of the master lease agreement
for stores, net of estimated sub-lease recoveries. Future rents
will be incurred through the expiration of the non-cancelable
leases, the longest of which runs through June&nbsp;2014.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Activity in the provision for store closings and the related
store closing costs for the three fiscal years ended
January&nbsp;30, 2000, is as follows (in thousands):

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
During the period that they remain open for business, the rent
and other operating expenses for the stores to be closed continue
 to be reflected in our normal operating expenses. As a result of
 the AGA acquisition, we have analyzed our store locations in
California and the Pacific Northwest. We will close or relocate
approximately 39 of the former AGA stores (of which 37 were
closed as of January&nbsp;30, 2000) based on several factors
including: (1)&nbsp;market saturation; (2)&nbsp;store
profitability; and (3)&nbsp;store size and format. Costs
associated with these closures have been considered in our
preliminary purchase price allocation (see Note&nbsp;3 to the
Consolidated Financial Statements). In addition, we finalized a
store closure plan for our own stores that overlap with AGA
stores, which resulted in a pretax charge of approximately $2.5
million during the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999. The charge
consists of two components: (1)&nbsp;future rents to be paid over
 the remaining terms of the master lease agreements for the
stores (net of estimated sub-lease recoveries); and
(2)&nbsp;write-down of leasehold improvements and other fixed
assets associated with the stores.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Adjustments to prior plans relate to costs for store closures
that were accrued in prior years but withdrawn from our store
closure plan in the year of adjustment. Such withdrawals are due
to subsequent improvements in the underlying economics of the
store&#146;s performance or (in the case of store relocation)
because we were unable to secure a previously identified site
upon acceptable lease terms. We had significant adjustments to
prior year plans in 1997 and 1998 because of changes resulting
from higher than expected improvements in our gross profit
margins in 1997-1998 and changes resulting from the Trak West
Acquisition (see Note&nbsp;3 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements) and the IPO (see Note&nbsp;8 to the Consolidated
Financial Statements). Further significant changes to the
strategic plan are not considered likely. All relocations and
store closings are anticipated to be completed within twelve
months of accrual and only after costs can be estimated.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Other cost revisions are comprised of changes in expected future
rental costs for vacant or sub-leased store locations, which are
due largely to early terminations of lease agreements.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
As part of the purchase price allocation for the Trak West, Big
Wheel and AGA stores (see Note&nbsp;3 to the Consolidated
Financial Statements), we recorded an allowance for the costs of
closing or relocating certain stores.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
On a store count basis, activity and the remaining number of
stores to be closed are summarized as follows:

<P align="left"><B>Year 2000 Conversion</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Historically, certain computerized systems have used two digits
rather than four to define the applicable year. Computer
equipment and software and devices with imbedded technology that
are time-sensitive may recognize a date using &#147;00&#148; as
the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. As a result, the
possibility existed on

<P align="center">25

<!-- PAGEBREAK -->
<P><HR noshade><P>

<DIV align="left">
January&nbsp;1, 2000 that these computer programs would fail from
 an inability to interpret date codes properly. This problem is
generally referred to as &#147;the Year&nbsp;2000 issue.&#148;
</DIV>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
During fiscal 1997, we began a comprehensive review of our
systems and applications for Year&nbsp;2000 compliance. We also
engaged an independent advisor to evaluate and assist us with our
 Year&nbsp;2000 program. Our efforts have included both
information technology, such as purchased software and
point-of-sale computer systems, and non-information technology
equipment, such as warehouse conveyor systems, in our
evaluations. In addition, we identified our key third-party
business partners and coordinated with them to address potential
Year&nbsp;2000 issues. These issues include data exchange with us
 as well as their shipping and warehousing processes.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999, we completed our
Year&nbsp;2000 identification, assessment, remediation and
testing efforts, although we will continue to monitor systems
through the remainder of fiscal 2000. We also finalized
contingency plans, which include: switching vendors, back-up
systems and manual processes, and the potential stockpiling of
certain products. As of January&nbsp;30, 2000, we have incurred
and expensed approximately $0.9 million related to our
Year&nbsp;2000 conversion project. We have also capitalized
approximately $6.2 million in connection with the replacement of
certain hardware and software applications. We do not anticipate
incurring any substantial additional costs during fiscal 2000
related to Year 2000 issues.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
As a result of our planning and remediation efforts, we have
experienced no significant business disruption in our systems as
a result of the Year&nbsp;2000 issue. In addition, as of the date
 of this filing, we have not experienced any Year&nbsp;2000
operational or financial interruptions, either internally or
externally with vendors or service providers, nor are any
expected. Although we believe that we have successfully avoided
any significant business disruption, we will continue to monitor
all critical systems for the appearance of delayed complications
or disruptions. In addition, we will continue to monitor any
problems encountered by vendors, distributors or service
providers throughout fiscal 2000 to ensure that any latent
Year&nbsp;2000 matters that may arise are promptly addressed.
However, if any problems are encountered during fiscal 2000 and
we do not make the necessary modifications and conversions, or do
 not complete them in a timely manner, it could have a material
adverse effect on our operations.

<P align="left"><B>Quarterly Results and Seasonality</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Our business is somewhat seasonal in nature, with the highest
sales occurring in the summer months of June through August
(overlapping our second and third fiscal quarters). Our business
is, in addition, affected by weather conditions. While unusually
severe or inclement weather tends to reduce sales as our
customers tend to defer elective maintenance during such periods,
 extremely hot and cold temperatures tend to enhance sales by
causing auto parts to fail and sales of seasonal products to
increase.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The following table sets forth certain quarterly unaudited
operating data for fiscal 1999 and 1998. The unaudited quarterly
information includes all adjustments which management considers
necessary for a fair presentation of the information shown.

<P align="left"><B>Inflation</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We do not believe our operations have been materially affected by
 inflation. We believe that we will be able to mitigate the
effects of future merchandise cost increases principally through
economies of scale resulting from increased volumes of purchases,
 selective forward buying and the use of alternative suppliers.

<P align="left"><B>Recent Accounting Pronouncements</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
In March&nbsp;1998, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee
of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued
Statement of Position (&#147;SOP&#148;)&nbsp;98-1,
&#147;Accounting for the Cost of Computer Software Developed or
Obtained for Internal Use.&#148; The SOP defines the
characteristics of internal-use computer software, the criteria
for capitalization and financial statement disclosure
requirements. The SOP is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December&nbsp;15, 1998, with earlier application
encouraged. We adopted SOP&nbsp;98-1 in the first quarter of
fiscal 1999 and such adoption did not have a material effect on
our financial condition or results of operations.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
In April&nbsp;1998, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee
of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued
SOP&nbsp;98-5, &#147;Reporting on the Cost of Start-up
Activities.&#148; The SOP broadly defines start-up activities as
those one-time activities related to opening a new facility,
introducing a new product or service, conducting business in a
new territory, or commencing some new operation. The SOP requires
 that the costs of start-up activities be expensed as incurred
and is effective for financial statements for fiscal years
beginning after December&nbsp;15, 1998, with earlier application
encouraged. Our historical accounting policy with respect to the
cost of start-up activities (store preopening expenses) was to
defer such costs for the approximately three month period of time
 that it takes to develop a new store facility and to expense
such costs during the month that the new store opens. We adopted
SOP 98-5 in the first quarter of fiscal 1999, which required us
to change our accounting policy to expense start-up costs as
incurred. Upon adoption, we expensed approximately $741,000, net
of an income tax benefit of $468,000, of preopening expenses that
 had been deferred as of January&nbsp;31, 1999. Such expense is
reflected in the accompanying consolidated statement of
operations as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting
principle.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
In June&nbsp;1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(&#147;FASB&#148;) issued SFAS No.&nbsp;133, &#147;Accounting for
 Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities&#148;. This
Statement establishes accounting and reporting standards for
derivative instruments and for hedging activities. It requires
companies to recognize all derivatives as either assets or
liabilities in their statement of financial position and measure
those instruments at fair value. In September&nbsp;1999, the FASB
 issued SFAS No.&nbsp;137, &#147;Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities-Deferral of the Effective Date
 of FASB Statement No.&nbsp;133,&#148; which delayed the
effective date of SFAS No.&nbsp;133 to fiscal years beginning
after June&nbsp;15, 2000. We are analyzing the implementation
requirements and currently do not anticipate there will be a
material impact on our financial position or the results of our
operations.

<P align="left"><B>Item&nbsp;7A.&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Quantitative and Qualitative
Disclosures about Market Risk</I></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Financial market risks relating to our operations result
primarily from changes in interest rates. Interest earned on our
cash equivalents as well as interest paid on our variable rate
debt are sensitive to changes in interest rates. Our variable
rate debt relates to borrowings under our Senior Credit Facility,
 which is primarily vulnerable to movements in the LIBOR rate.
Our fixed rate debt consists primarily of our 11% Senior
Subordinated Notes and capital lease obligations. Our exposure to
 interest rate risk increased during fiscal 1999 due to increases
 in corresponding interest rates as well as increased debt
balances in conjunction with our recent acquisitions.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
We currently utilize no derivative financial instruments that
expose us to significant market risk. While we cannot predict the
 impact interest rate movements will have on our debt, we believe
 the exposure to interest rate risk is not material to our
financial position or results of operations.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in
the index appearing under Item&nbsp;14(a)(1) on page&nbsp;58
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of CSK Auto Corporation and its subsidiary at January&nbsp;30,
2000 and January&nbsp;31, 1999, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended January&nbsp;30, 2000 in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
 Company&#146;s management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements. We conducted our audits of
 these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally
 accepted in the United States of America, which require that we
plan and perform the audit 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, assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed
above.

<P align="center">
<B>NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
CSK Auto Corporation is a holding company. At January&nbsp;30,
2000, CSK Auto Corporation had no business activity other than
its investment in CSK Auto, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary
(&#147;Auto&#148;). On a consolidated basis, CSK Auto Corporation
 and subsidiary are referred to herein as &#147;the
Company.&#148;

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
CSK Auto, Inc. is a specialty retailer of automotive aftermarket
parts and accessories. At January&nbsp;30, 2000, the Company
operated 1,120 stores in 18 Western and Northern Plains states as
 a fully integrated company under three brand names: Checker Auto
 Parts, founded in 1969 and operating in the Southwestern, Rocky
Mountain and Northern Plains states; Schuck&#146;s Auto Supply,
founded in 1917 and operating in the Pacific Northwest; and
Kragen Auto Parts, founded in 1947 and operating primarily in
California.

<P align="left"><B>Note&nbsp;1&nbsp;&#151; Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies</B>

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>Principles of Consolidation</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CSK
 Auto Corporation and Auto for all years presented. In addition,
the accounts of Automotive Information Systems, Inc.
(&#147;AIS&#148;) are included in the accompanying financial
statements from September&nbsp;7, 1999, the date of acquisition
(see Note&nbsp;3). All intercompany accounts and transactions are
 eliminated in consolidation.

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>Fiscal Year</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The Company&#146;s fiscal year end is on the Sunday nearest to
January&nbsp;31 of the following calendar year. The fiscal years
ended January&nbsp;30, 2000 (&#147;fiscal&nbsp;1999&#148;),
January&nbsp;31, 1999 (&#147;fiscal&nbsp;1998&#148;) and
February&nbsp;1, 1998 (&#147;fiscal&nbsp;1997&#148;) each
consisted of 52&nbsp;weeks.

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>Revenue Recognition</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The Company recognizes sales upon the delivery of products to its
 customers, which generally occurs at the Company&#146;s retail
store locations. For commercial customers, the Company also
delivers products to customer locations. All retail and
commercial sales are final upon delivery of products. However, as
 a convenience to the customer and as typical of most retailers,
the Company will accept merchandise returns. The Company
generally limits the period of time within which products may be
returned to 30&nbsp;days and requires returns to be accompanied
by original packaging and a sales receipt. The accompanying
financial statements include an allowance for sales returns,
which has been estimated by management based upon historical
activity.

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>Cash Equivalents</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Cash equivalents consist primarily of certificates of deposit
with maturities of three months or less when purchased.

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>Receivables</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Receivables are primarily comprised of amounts due from vendors
for rebates or allowances and from commercial sales customers.

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>Concentration of Credit Risk</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to
concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash
 equivalents and trade receivables. As of January&nbsp;30, 2000,
the Company had cash and cash equivalents on deposit with a major
 financial institution that were in excess of FDIC insured
limits. Historically, the Company has not experienced any loss of
 its cash and cash equivalents due to such concentration of
credit risk.

<B>NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS&nbsp;&#151;
(Continued)</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The Company does not hold collateral to secure payment of its
trade accounts receivable. However, management performs ongoing
credit evaluations of its customers&#146; financial condition and
 provides an allowance for estimated potential losses. Exposure
to credit loss is limited to the carrying amount.

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>Inventories and Cost of Sales</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market, cost being
 determined utilizing the last-in, first-out method. Cost of
sales includes product cost, net of earned vendor rebates,
discounts and allowances. The Company recognizes vendor rebates,
discounts and allowances based on the terms of the underlying
agreements. Such amounts may be amortized over the life of the
applicable agreements or recognized as inventory is sold. Certain
 operating and administrative costs associated with purchasing
and handling of inventory are capitalized in inventories. The
amounts of such costs included in inventories as of
January&nbsp;30, 2000 and January&nbsp;31, 1999 were
approximately $31.8 million and $17.9 million, respectively. In
addition, the Company increases cost of sales and reduces
inventory by an estimate of purchase discounts and volume rebates
 that are unearned at period end, based upon inventory turnover
rates. Such capitalized purchase discounts totaled $23.5 million
and $13.2 million as of January&nbsp;30, 2000 and
January&nbsp;31, 1999, respectively. The replacement cost of
inventories approximated $548.3 million and $356.7 million at
January&nbsp;30, 2000 and January&nbsp;31, 1999, respectively.

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>Property and Equipment</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Property, equipment and purchased software are recorded at cost.
Depreciation and amortization are computed for financial
reporting purposes utilizing primarily the straight-line method
over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which
range from 5 to 25&nbsp;years, or for leasehold improvements and
property under capital lease, the base lease term or estimated
useful life, if shorter. Maintenance and repairs are charged to
earnings when incurred.

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>Store Preopening Costs</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
During the first quarter of fiscal 1999, the Company adopted
Statement of Position (&#147;SOP&#148;) 98-5, &#147;Reporting on
the Cost of Start-up Activities.&#148; SOP&nbsp;98-5 requires
that store preopening costs, consisting primarily of incremental
labor, supplies and occupancy costs directly related to the
opening of specific stores, be expensed as incurred. Previously,
the Company capitalized such costs as prepaid expenses and other
current assets and expensed them during the month in which the
store was opened. See Note&nbsp;2.

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>Internal Software Development Costs</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
During the first quarter of fiscal 1999, the Company adopted SOP
98-1 &#147;Accounting for the Cost of Computer Software Developed
 or Obtained for Internal Use.&#148; SOP&nbsp;98-1 provides for
the capitalization of certain internal software development costs
 and amortization over the life of the related software.
Previously, internal software development costs, consisting
primarily of incremental internal labor costs and benefits, were
expensed as incurred. Amounts capitalized during 1999 were $1.7
million with accumulated amortization of $0.2 million as of
January&nbsp;30, 2000. Total amounts charged to operations for
fiscal years 1998 and 1997 were approximately $1.6 million and
$1.3 million, respectively.

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>Leasehold Interests</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Leasehold interests represent the discounted net present value of
 the excess of the fair rental value over the respective
contractual rent of facilities under operating leases acquired in
 business combinations. Amortization expense is computed on a
straight-line basis over the respective lease terms. Accumulated
amortization totaled $16.6 million and $16.2 million at
January&nbsp;30, 2000 and January&nbsp;31, 1999, respectively.

(Continued)</B>

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>Goodwill</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The cost in excess of net assets acquired is amortized on a
straight-line basis over periods ranging from 20 to
30&nbsp;years, depending on the business acquired. Management
estimates such periods using factors such as entry barriers in
certain regions, operating rights and estimated lives of other
operating assets acquired. The realizability of goodwill and
other intangibles is evaluated periodically when events or
circumstances indicate a possible inability to recover the
carrying amount. Such evaluation is based on cash flow and
profitability projections that incorporate the impact of existing
 Company businesses. The analyses necessarily involve significant
 management judgment to evaluate the capacity of an acquired
business to perform within projections. Accumulated amortization
as of January&nbsp;30, 2000 was $1.9 million.

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>Store Closing Costs</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The Company provides an allowance for estimated costs and losses
to be incurred in connection with store closures and losses on
the disposal of store-related assets, which is net of anticipated
 sublease income. Such costs are recognized when a store is
specifically identified, costs can be estimated and closure is
planned to be completed within the next twelve months. See
Note&nbsp;12.

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>Advertising</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The Company expenses all advertising costs as such costs are
incurred. Amounts due under vendor cooperative advertising
agreements are recorded as receivables until their collection.
Advertising expense for fiscal 1999, 1998 and 1997 totaled
approximately $16.5 million, $21.9 million and $23.7 million, net
 of vendor funded cooperative advertising, respectively.

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>Assets Held for Sale</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Assets held for sale consist of newly acquired land, buildings
and store fixtures owned by the Company which the Company intends
 in the next twelve months to sell to and lease back from third
parties under lease arrangements.

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>Long-lived Assets</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The Company applies Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(&#147;SFAS&#148;) No.&nbsp;121, &#147;Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be
Disposed Of,&#148; which requires that long-lived assets and
certain identifiable intangible assets to be held and used or
disposed of by an entity be reviewed for impairment whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
amount of an asset may not be recoverable. In the event assets
are impaired, losses are recognized based on the excess carrying
amount over the estimated fair value of the asset. SFAS
No.&nbsp;121 also requires that assets to be disposed of be
reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair market
value less selling costs. The Company evaluates the carrying
value of long-lived assets on a quarterly basis to determine
whether events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable and an
impairment loss should be recognized. Such evaluation is based on
 the expected utilization of the related asset and the
corresponding useful life.

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>Income Taxes</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in
future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and
liabilities and their financial reporting amounts
(&#147;temporary differences&#148;) at each year end based on
enacted tax laws and statutory rates applicable to the period in
which the temporary differences are expected to affect taxable
income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to
reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
 Income tax expense includes both taxes payable for the period
and the change during the period in deferred tax assets and
liabilities.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
SFAS No.&nbsp;123, &#147;Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation,&#148; encourages but does not require companies to
record compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation
plans at fair value. The Company has chosen to continue to
account for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value
method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion
No.&nbsp;25, &#147;Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees&#148;
 and related interpretations thereof. Accordingly, compensation
cost for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the
market price of the Company&#146;s stock at the date of grant
over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. See
Note&nbsp;9.

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>Earnings per Share</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average
outstanding common shares. Diluted earnings per share is based on
 the weighted average outstanding shares adjusted for the effect
of stock options.

Calculation of shares used in computing per share amounts is
summarized as follows:

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>Use of Estimates</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
 liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

In April&nbsp;1998, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee
of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued
SOP&nbsp;98-5, &#147;Reporting on the Cost of Start-up
Activities.&#148; The SOP broadly defines start-up activities as
those one-time activities related to opening a new facility,
introducing a new product or service, conducting business in a
new territory, or commencing some new operation. The SOP requires
 that the costs of start-up activities be expensed as incurred
and is effective for financial statements for fiscal years
beginning after December&nbsp;15, 1998, with earlier application
encouraged. The Company&#146;s historical accounting policy with
respect to the cost of start-up activities (store preopening
expenses) was to defer such

<P align="left">
costs for the approximately three month period of time that it
takes to develop a new store facility and to expense such costs
during the month that the new store opens. The Company adopted
SOP&nbsp;98-5 in the first quarter of fiscal 1999, which required
 the Company to change its accounting policy to expense start-up
costs as incurred. Upon adoption, the Company expensed
approximately $741,000, net of an income tax benefit of $468,000,
 of preopening expenses that had been deferred as of
January&nbsp;31, 1999. Such expense is reflected in the
accompanying consolidated statement of operations as the
cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
In June&nbsp;1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(&#147;FASB&#148;) issued SFAS No.&nbsp;133, &#147;Accounting for
 Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities&#148;. This
Statement establishes accounting and reporting standards for
derivative instruments and for hedging activities. It requires
companies to recognize all derivatives as either assets or
liabilities in their statement of financial position and measure
those instruments at fair value. In September&nbsp;1999, the FASB
 issued SFAS No.&nbsp;137, &#147;Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities-Deferral of the Effective Date
 of FASB Statement No.&nbsp;133,&#148; which delayed the
effective date of SFAS No.&nbsp;133 to fiscal years beginning
after June&nbsp;15, 2000. The Company is analyzing the
implementation requirements and currently does not anticipate
there will be a material impact on its financial position or the
results of its operations.

<P align="left"><B>Note&nbsp;3&nbsp;&#151; Business Acquisitions</B>

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>Al&#146;s and Grand Auto Supply</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
On October&nbsp;1, 1999, the Company acquired the common stock of
 Al&#146;s and Grand Auto Supply, Inc. (&#147;AGA&#148;),
formerly known as PACCAR Automotive, Inc., which operated 194
stores under the trade names of Al&#146;s Auto Supply and Grand
Auto Supply (collectively, the &#147;AGA stores&#148;) in
Washington, California, Idaho, Oregon, Nevada and Alaska. The
Company has substantially converted these stores to the
Schuck&#146;s and Kragen names and store formats and integrated
these stores into the Company&#146;s operations.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The Company paid approximately $145.6 million in cash for the
stock of AGA and associated transaction costs. The acquisition
was funded with proceeds from the Senior Credit Facility. In
connection with the acquisition, the Company amended and restated
 the Senior Credit Facility to provide an additional $150.0
million of senior term loan borrowing ability. There are no
contingent payments, options or commitments associated with the
acquisition.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
In connection with the integration of the AGA stores, the Company
 will incur one-time transition and integration expenses
estimated to be $28.8 million, consisting primarily of grand
opening advertising, training and re-merchandising costs.
Approximately $21.3 million of such expenses were incurred during
 fiscal&nbsp;1999 with the balance expected to be incurred during
 the first quarter of fiscal&nbsp;2000. In addition, the Company
will incur one-time capital expenditures of approximately $5.6
million, consisting primarily of expenditures related to
equipment, store fixtures, signage and the installation of the
Company&#146;s store-level information systems in the AGA stores.
 Approximately $2.0 million of such capital expenditures were
incurred during fiscal&nbsp;1999 with the balance expected to be
incurred during the first quarter of fiscal 2000.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
As a result of the AGA acquisition, the Company has analyzed its
store locations in California and the Pacific Northwest. The
Company will close or relocate approximately 39 of the formerly
owned AGA stores (of which 37 were closed as of January&nbsp;30,
2000) based on several factors including: (1)&nbsp;market
saturation; (2)&nbsp;store profitability; and (3)&nbsp;store size
 and format. Costs associated with these closures consist of
future rents to be paid over the remaining terms of the master
lease agreements for the stores (net of estimated sublease
recoveries). In addition, we finalized a store closure plan for
our own stores that overlap with AGA stores, which resulted in a
pretax charge of approximately $2.5 million during the fourth
quarter of fiscal 1999. The charge consisted of two components:
(1)&nbsp;future rents to be paid over the remaining lease terms
of the master lease agreements for the stores (net of estimated
sublease rentals); and (2)&nbsp;a write-down in the

carrying amounts of leasehold improvements and other fixed assets
 associated with the affected stores. See Note&nbsp;12.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The AGA acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method
of accounting. Accordingly, the results of operations of these
stores are included in the consolidated operating results of the
Company from October&nbsp;1, 1999, the first day of operations
subsequent to the acquisition. The financial statements reflect
the preliminary allocation of the purchase price, based on
estimated fair values at the date of acquisition, pending final
determination of certain acquired balances. Approximately $124.1
million was allocated to inventory, leasehold improvements, fixed
 assets and favorable lease rights. The preliminary allocation
also includes an estimated liability for the cost of closing the
39 acquired stores described above. The excess of the purchase
price over the estimated fair value of the assets acquired
resulted in goodwill of approximately $60.7 million and is being
amortized on a straight-line basis over 30&nbsp;years.

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>Automotive Information Systems</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
On September&nbsp;7, 1999, the Company acquired all of the common
 stock of Automotive Information Systems, Inc. (&#147;AIS&#148;).
 AIS, based in St. Paul Minnesota, is a leading provider of
diagnostic vehicle repair information to automotive technicians,
automotive replacement parts manufacturers, automotive test
equipment manufacturers, and the do-it-yourself consumer. The
Company paid approximately $10.3 million in cash for AIS and
funded the acquisition through its Senior Credit Facility. There
are no contingent payments, options or commitments associated
with the acquisition.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The AIS acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method
of accounting. Accordingly, the results of operations are
included in the consolidated operating results of the Company
from September&nbsp;7, 1999, the first day of operations
subsequent to the acquisition. The financial statements reflect
the preliminary allocation of the purchase price, based on
estimated fair values at the date of acquisition, pending final
determination of certain acquired balances. The excess of the
purchase price over the estimated fair value of the assets
acquired resulted in goodwill of approximately $9.2 million and
is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 20&nbsp;years.

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>Big Wheel</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
On June&nbsp;30, 1999, the Company acquired substantially all of
the assets of Apsco Products Company dba Big Wheel/ Rossi
(&#147;Big Wheel&#148;), the leading retailer of auto parts in
the Northern Plains states. Big Wheel operated 86 stores in
Minnesota, North Dakota and Wisconsin along with a distribution
center in Minnesota. The Company has substantially converted
these stores to the Checker name and store format and integrated
these stores into the Company&#146;s operations.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The Company paid approximately $62.7 million in cash for
substantially all the assets and assumed certain current
liabilities and indebtedness of Big Wheel. The acquisition was
funded with proceeds from the Senior Credit Facility. In
connection with the acquisition, the Company amended and restated
 the Senior Credit Facility to provide an additional $125.0
million of senior term loan borrowing ability. There are no
contingent payments, options or commitments associated with the
acquisition.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
In connection with the integration of the Big Wheel stores, the
Company will incur one-time transition and integration expenses
estimated to be $12.5 million, consisting primarily of grand
opening advertising, training and re-merchandising costs.
Approximately $8.9 million of such expenses were incurred during
fiscal 1999 with the balance expected to be incurred during the
first quarter of fiscal 2000. In addition, the Company will incur
 one-time capital expenditures estimated to be $3.2 million,
consisting primarily of expenditures related to equipment, store
fixtures, signage and the installation of the Company&#146;s
store-level information systems in the Big Wheel stores.
Approximately $3.0 million of such capital expenditures were
incurred during fiscal&nbsp;1999 with the balance expected to be
incurred during the first quarter of fiscal&nbsp;2000.

The Big Wheel acquisition was accounted for under the purchase
method of accounting. Accordingly, the results of operations of
these stores are included in the consolidated operating results
of the Company from July&nbsp;1, 1999, the first day of
operations subsequent to the acquisition. The financial
statements reflect the preliminary allocation of the purchase
price, based on estimated fair values at the date of acquisition,
 pending final determination of certain acquired balances,
principally inventories. Approximately $23.0 million was
allocated to inventory, leasehold improvements, fixed assets and
favorable lease rights. The excess of the purchase price over the
 estimated fair value of the assets acquired resulted in goodwill
 of approximately $56.5 million and is being amortized on a
straight-line basis over 30&nbsp;years.

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>M&#38;O Auto Parts</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
On January&nbsp;6, 1999, the Company acquired two stores in
Alaska from M&#38;O Auto Parts for $0.9 million. The Company has
converted these stores to the Schuck&#146;s name and store format
 and integrated these stores into the Company&#146;s operations.
No significant transition and integration costs were incurred
relating to this acquisition.

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>Trak West</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
On December&nbsp;8, 1997, the Company acquired a newly formed
subsidiary (&#147;Trak West&#148;) of Trak Auto Corporation
(&#147;Trak Auto&#148;). Upon its formation, Trak Auto
contributed to Trak West the fixtures and equipment, merchandise
inventories and store leases of 82 specific store sites in
Southern California, together with the merchandise inventory of
the Ontario, California distribution center operated by Trak
Auto. After this contribution, Trak West had no liabilities and
owned no other assets than those previously described.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The Company acquired Trak West for a total cost of approximately
$34.5 million and financed its acquisition with a $22.0 million
equity investment by affiliates of the Company&#146;s existing
stockholders and borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility. In
connection therewith, an affiliate of Investcorp S.A., was paid a
 $1.0 million placement fee. In connection with the negotiation
of the Trak West acquisition, TG Investments, Ltd., an affiliate
of Carmel, was paid a $1.0 million consulting fee.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The Trak West acquisition was accounted for under the purchase
method of accounting. Accordingly, the results of operations of
these stores are included in the consolidated operating results
of the Company from December&nbsp;9, 1997, the first day of
operations subsequent to the acquisition, and were not material
to the Company&#146;s consolidated results of operations for
fiscal&nbsp;1997. No goodwill was recorded in connection with
this acquisition.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The Company incurred $3.1 million and $3.4 million of one-time
transition and integration expenses during fiscal&nbsp;1998 and
fiscal&nbsp;1997, respectively, associated with the Trak West
acquisition. Such expenses included the costs of employee
training, remerchandising and grand opening advertising for the
former Trak West stores.

The following unaudited pro forma financial information presents
the combined historical results of the Company, Big Wheel, AIS
and AGA as if the acquisitions had occurred at the beginning of
the periods presented, after giving effect to certain
adjustments. Pro forma adjustments include the following:
(1)&nbsp;amortization of goodwill; (2)&nbsp;depreciation expense
based on the allocation of purchase price to fixed assets; and
(3)&nbsp;interest expense and amortization of deferred financing
costs associated with the additional borrowings under the Senior
Credit Facility. Although cost savings and other future synergy
benefits of the combined companies are expected, no such benefits
 are reflected in this pro forma financial information.

(Continued)</B>

<P align="left"><B>Note&nbsp;4&nbsp;&#151; Transactions and Relationships with
Related Parties</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
In October&nbsp;1989, the Company entered into a nine year lease
(the &#147;Initial Lease&#148;) for its corporate headquarters in
 Phoenix, Arizona, with an unaffiliated landlord. During
January&nbsp;1994, Missouri Falls Holdings Corp., an affiliate of
 Carmel, acquired an interest in the partnership (&#147;Missouri
Falls Partners&#148;) which acquired the building and assumed the
 lease between the Company and the former landlord. In
October&nbsp;1996, the Company extended the Initial Lease through
 October&nbsp;2006. The lease relates to approximately 78,577
square feet and provides for a current base rent of approximately
 $1,490,000 per year. The Company is currently negotiating an
extension for the term of the Initial Lease.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
In April&nbsp;1995, the Company assumed a lease (the
&#147;Subsequent Lease&#148;) between a former tenant and
Missouri Falls Partners for approximately 11,683 square feet of
additional office space at its corporate headquarters. In
October&nbsp;1996, the Company extended the Subsequent Lease
through October&nbsp;2006. At its originally scheduled
termination as of April&nbsp;1998, rent under the Subsequent
Lease increased to the same per square foot as is charged under
the Initial Lease to a total annual rent of $221,510. The Company
 is currently negotiating an extension of the term of the
Subsequent Lease.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The Company leased approximately 5,754 square feet of additional
space at the above premises for an annual rental of $106,449
under three separate lease documents with expiration dates of
February&nbsp;2000 and March&nbsp;2000. The Company has vacated
approximately 2,458 square feet of space for which the lease has
expired. The Company is presently negotiating for an extension of
 the lease on the remaining 3,296 square feet and for a new lease
 of other space in the same premises.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The Company also leases from MFP&nbsp;Holdings, LLC, an affiliate
 of Carmel, a parking lot adjacent to its corporate headquarters
for an annual rental of $62,506 under a separate lease which
expires in October&nbsp;2006.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
From time to time, the Company has entered into sale-leaseback or
 other financing arrangements with related parties.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Beginning in October&nbsp;1995, the Company entered into a series
 of sale-leaseback transactions with Transatlantic Realty, Inc.
(&#147;Realty&#148;), another affiliate of Carmel, for various
real property and fixtures. The total funding provided by Realty
in these transactions through January&nbsp;30, 2000 was
approximately $33.1 million (of which $27.3 million was for real
property and $5.8 million was for fixtures). This amount
represented the Company&#146;s cost of such assets. The Company
has replaced approximately $27.3 million of the real property
sale-leasebacks and $5.3 million of the fixture sale-leasebacks
with similar arrangements with unrelated third parties. As of
January&nbsp;30, 2000, there were approximately $0.5 million of
fixture sale-leasebacks remaining in this facility. The Company
intends to continue to replace such sale-leasebacks and has
agreed to use its best efforts to do so.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Beginning in October&nbsp;1996, the Company entered into a series
 of sale-leaseback transactions with Transatlantic Leasing, Inc.
(&#147;Leasing&#148;), another affiliate of Carmel, for certain
real property. The terms of the leases under the facility with
Leasing were set in arm&#146;s-length negotiations. As of
January&nbsp;30, 2000, the net funding provided by Leasing in
these transactions was approximately $0.9 million. In
October&nbsp;1997, the Company established a new sale-leaseback
facility and the Company terminated the facility with Leasing.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The Company believes that the terms of the transactions with
affiliated parties described above in this Note were no less
favorable to it than terms that may have been available from
independent third parties at the time of the applicable
transaction.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
In connection with his engagement as Chief Executive Officer, the
 Company loaned Mr.&nbsp;Jenkins $550,000, which he used to
finance the purchase of the new home required as a result of his
relocation. This loan was to mature in 1999 and bear interest at
a rate of 4.545%. This loan was authorized by the Board of
Directors prior to the commencement of Mr.&nbsp;Jenkins&#146;
employment. In September 1999, the Company agreed to forgive
$300,000 principal amount of the loan on November&nbsp;1, 1999
and $250,000 principal amount,

Borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility are collateralized by
 a first priority security interest in substantially all of the
personal property of Auto, subject to certain permitted liens.
The Company also issued a guarantee of such borrowings under the
Senior Credit Facility, which guarantee is collateralized by a
pledge by the Company of all issued and outstanding capital stock
 of Auto. In addition, the revolving credit portion allows for
the issuance of letters of credit that reduce revolver
availability. Letters of credit outstanding were $2.9 million and
 $0.6 million at January&nbsp;30, 2000 and January&nbsp;31, 1999,
 respectively.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The Senior Credit Facility prohibits, with certain limited
exceptions, the optional or mandatory prepayment or other
defeasance of Auto&#146;s 11% Senior Subordinated Notes. The
Senior Credit Facility further requires that, under certain
circumstances, Auto make prepayments of the term loan outstanding
 thereunder with (i)&nbsp;50% of any Excess Cash Flow (as defined
 therein); and (ii)&nbsp;50% of the Net Proceeds (as defined
therein) from certain offerings of the Company&#146;s voting
stock. In addition, a &#147;change of control&#148; allows the
lenders to accelerate the loans. A change of control occurs under
 any of the following circumstances: (i)&nbsp;anyone, other than
the Initial Shareholders (as defined therein), acquires the power
 to vote at least 30% of the common stock, on a fully diluted
basis (as defined); (ii)&nbsp;certain changes in the composition
of the Board of Directors; and (iii)&nbsp;any sale of the common
stock of Auto.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Commitment fees on available funds under the Revolving Credit
Commitment are payable quarterly in arrears on the average
daily-unused amount of the total commitment. Commitment fees
totaling $103,000 and $295,000 were incurred in fiscal 1999 and
1998, respectively.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The terms of the Senior Credit Facility include restrictions on
investments, capital expenditures, dividends and certain other
payments and require the Company to meet certain financial
covenants. The Company believes it was in compliance with all
such covenants at January&nbsp;30, 2000.

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>11% Senior Subordinated Notes Due 2006</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
On October&nbsp;30, 1996, Auto issued and sold in a private
placement $125.0 million aggregate principal amount of 11% Senior
 Subordinated Notes due 2006 (the &#147;Old 11%&nbsp;Notes&#148;)
 pursuant to an indenture, between Auto and The Bank of New York
(as successor to Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.), as Trustee. On
March&nbsp;13, 1997, Auto offered to exchange up to all
outstanding Old 11% Notes for a like principal amount of its 11%
Series&nbsp;A Senior Subordinated Notes due 2006 (the &#147;11%
Senior Subordinated Notes&#148;) issued pursuant to the Indenture
 in a transaction registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
 amended. Auto consummated the exchange offer on June&nbsp;18,
1997, with all of the Old 11% Notes being exchanged for the 11%
Senior Subordinated Notes.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
In April&nbsp;1998, 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the
11% Senior Subordinated Notes was redeemed at a redemption price
of 110% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid
interest

initial public offering of Common Stock. See Note&nbsp;8.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The indenture potentially restricts Auto from making additional
borrowings under its Revolving Credit Commitment that, when added
 to the aggregate amount of outstanding borrowings under the
Senior Credit Facility (including term loans), exceed $200.0
million. This restriction does not apply if the new borrowings
are of a type specifically permitted by the indenture, or, if
after giving pro forma effect to such new borrowings the ratio of
 Auto&#146;s consolidated EBITDA to fixed charges (as such terms
are defined in the indenture) exceeds 2.25 to 1. Accordingly, the
 Company has been able to exceed the potential restriction and
does not anticipate that it will limit access to further
borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The indenture also provides that upon a &#147;change of
control,&#148; as defined therein, each holder of 11% Senior
Subordinated Notes will have the right to require Auto to
repurchase all or any part of such holder&#146;s notes at a
purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount plus
 accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The 11% Senior Subordinated Notes bear interest at 11% per year,
payable semiannually in arrears on each May&nbsp;1 and
November&nbsp;&nbsp;1, and mature on November&nbsp;1, 2006. The
11% Senior Subordinated Notes are general, unsecured senior
subordinated obligations. The 11% Senior Subordinated Notes are
required to be guaranteed fully, unconditionally and jointly and
severally by most future United States subsidiaries of Auto, on a
 senior subordinated basis.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
On and after November&nbsp;1, 2001, the 11% Senior Subordinated
Notes will be redeemable, at the option of Auto, in whole or in
part, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60&nbsp;days&#146;
notice, at the redemption prices set forth below (expressed in
percentages of principal amount), plus accrued and unpaid
interest thereon, if any, to the applicable redemption date, if
redeemed during the 12-month period beginning on November&nbsp;1
of the years indicated below:

Upon the consummation of the offering, the Company recorded an
extraordinary loss of approximately $6.8 million, net of taxes.
Such extraordinary loss consisted primarily of the premiums paid
in connection with the redemption of indebtedness and the
write-off of a portion of deferred debt issuance costs.

<P align="left"><B>Note 7&nbsp;&#151; Leases</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The Company leases its office and warehouse facilities, all but
four of its retail stores, and a majority of its equipment.
Generally, store leases provide for minimum rentals and the
payment of utilities, maintenance, insurance and taxes. Certain
store leases also provide for contingent rentals based upon a
percentage of sales in excess of a stipulated minimum. The
majority of lease agreements are for base lease periods ranging
from 15 to 20&nbsp;years, with three to five renewal options of
five years each.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The Company also has access to an off-balance sheet operating
lease facility that is used to finance new store construction.
The facility provides up to $112.2 million of funding for the
acquisition and development of up to 94 new stores through
December&nbsp;31, 2000. As of January&nbsp;30, 2000, $4.6 million
 of this $112.2 million leasing facility had been utilized. Under
 a similar agreement that expired on May&nbsp;31, 1999 with
respect to the addition of new stores, the Company had
approximately $87.6 million committed, with $10.5 million

In December&nbsp;1997, the Company sold 180,600 shares of its
Class&nbsp;B stock to certain executives of the Company. Also in
December&nbsp;1997, in connection with the acquisition of Trak
West, the Company sold 1,827,788 shares of stock to affiliates of
 the Company&#146;s existing stockholders. See Note 9.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
On March&nbsp;17, 1998, the Company completed an initial public
offering (the &#147;IPO&#148;) of approximately 8.6 million
shares of its common stock, generating proceeds of approximately
$159.1 million, net of offering expenses. The offering proceeds
were used to retire the Company&#146;s 12% Subordinated Notes and
 other indebtedness as more fully described in Note&nbsp;6. Upon
retirement of the 12% Subordinated Notes, all of the outstanding
preferred stock of Auto was cancelled.

In connection with the IPO, the Company&#146;s Board of Directors
 and stockholders approved a 17.105 to 1 stock split effected in
the form of a stock dividend. Accordingly, all share and option
information contained herein has been adjusted to give
retroactive effect to such stock split. In addition, under the
terms of the Company&#146;s restated Certificate of Incorporation
 in effect at the time of the IPO, each share of each class of
issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company automatically
 converted to common stock upon the consummation of the IPO on
March&nbsp;17, 1998.

 Company contributions. The Company does not provide
post-employment or post-retirement health care or life insurance
benefits to its employees.

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>Retirement Program</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The Company sponsors a 401(k) plan which is available to all
employees of the Company who have completed one year of
continuous service. Effective October&nbsp;1, 1997, the Company
matches from 40% to 60% of employee contributions in 10%
increments, based on years of service with the Company, up to 4%
of the participant&#146;s base salary. Prior to October&nbsp;1,
1997, the Company matched 20% of employee contributions, up to 6%
 of the participant&#146;s base salary, without regard to years
of service. Participant contributions are subject to certain
restrictions as set forth in the Internal Revenue Code. The
Company&#146;s matching contributions totaled $1,422,400,
$1,258,500 and $394,500 for fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997,
respectively.

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>1996 Stock Option Plans</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
On October&nbsp;30, 1996, the Company awarded options to purchase
 shares of common stock under its Associate Stock Option Plan
(the &#147;Associate Plan&#148;) and its Executive Stock Option
Plan (the &#147;Executive Plan&#148; and together with the
Associate Plan, the &#147;Plans&#148;) in order to provide
incentives to store managers and salaried corporate and warehouse
 employees of the Company. In October&nbsp;1996 and
February&nbsp;1997, the Company&#146;s Board of Directors
approved the Associate Plan and the Executive Plan, respectively.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The Plans may be administered by a committee of the Board of
Directors of the Company, which would have broad authority in
administering and interpreting the Plans, or, if a committee has
not been appointed, by the entire Board of Directors. The Plans
provide that, at such time as the Company has a class of equity

securities registered under Section&nbsp;12 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the &#147;Exchange Act&#148;),
the committee must consist entirely of &#147;Non-Employee
Directors&#148; (as defined in Rule&nbsp;16b-3 under the Exchange
 Act). The Compensation Committee has been appointed to
administer the Plans.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Options to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,026,300 shares of
common stock may be granted under the Associate Plan. On
April&nbsp;30, 1999, the Board of Directors amended and restated
the Executive Plan, increasing the maximum number of shares for
which options may be granted by 60,000 to a total of 744,200
shares of common stock. Options granted under the Plans may be
options intended to qualify as incentive stock options under
Section&nbsp;422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended, or options not intended to so qualify. In the event of a
 sale of more than 80% of the outstanding shares of capital stock
 of the Company or 80% of its assets, as defined, all options
under the plan are vested. All options expire on the seventh
anniversary of the date of grant (or, under certain
circumstances, 30&nbsp;days later).

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
As a result of the IPO, each option granted under the Plans will
become exercisable upon vesting. Options granted under the
Associate Plan vest in three equal installments on the second,
third and fourth anniversaries of the date of their grant,
assuming the associate&#146;s employment continues during this
period (&#147;Four Year Vesting&#148;). Options granted under the
 Executive Plan are subject to the Four Year Vesting as to 84% of
 such options and performance vesting (over the same four years)
as to the remaining 16%. The performance vesting criteria is
based upon achieving specified operating results. Partial vesting
 of options subject to performance vesting occurs if the Company
achieves less than 95% of the specified operating results. Any
portion of options granted under the Executive Plan which are
subject to performance vesting and which do not vest during the
four years will automatically vest 90 days prior to the end of
the option&#146;s term. If the specified operating results are
exceeded for any year by at least 10%, the executive will receive
 options for up to an additional 5% (20% on a cumulative basis)
of his or her original option grant. Based on 1998 results, an
additional 8,713 options were granted in April&nbsp;1999. Based
on 1999 results, approximately 15,000 options will be granted in
April&nbsp;2000.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
As of January&nbsp;30, 2000, the Company has granted options to
purchase 878,455 shares under the Associate Plan and 607,707
shares under the Executive Plan, net of cancellations and
exercises. Except for 96,062 options granted under the Executive
Plan (see &#147;Employment Agreements&#148; below), the exercise
prices represent the fair market value at the date of grant based
 upon the price paid for such shares and other valuation analyses
 performed by the Company, or actual market prices as determined
by trades reported by the New York Stock Exchange subsequent to
the IPO, as applicable.

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>1999 Stock Option Plan</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
On April&nbsp;30, 1999, the Company adopted the 1999 Employee
Stock Option Plan (the &#147;1999 Plan&#148;) in order to
attract, retain and motivate qualified individuals to serve as
employees of the Company.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The 1999 Plan is administered by a committee of the Board of
Directors of the Company, which has broad authority in
administering and interpreting the plan. The 1999 Plan provides
that, at such time as the Company has a class of equity
securities registered under Section&nbsp;12 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the &#147;Exchange Act&#148;),
the committee must consist entirely of &#147;Non-Employee
Directors&#148; (as defined in Rule&nbsp;16b-3 under the Exchange
 Act).

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Options to purchase up to an aggregate of 750,000 shares of
common stock may be granted under the 1999 Plan. Options granted
under the 1999 Plan may be options intended to qualify as
incentive stock options under Section&nbsp;422 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or options not intended to so
qualify. In the event of a sale of more than 80% of the
outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company or 80% of its
assets, as defined, all options under the plan are vested. All
options expire on the tenth anniversary of the date of grant (or,
 under certain circumstances, 30&nbsp;days later).

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
As of January&nbsp;30, 2000, the Company has granted options to
purchase 533,020 shares under the 1999 Plan, net of cancellations
 and exercises. The exercise prices represent the fair market
value at the date of grant based upon actual market prices as
determined by trades reported by the New York Stock Exchange.
Options granted under the 1999 Plan vest and become exercisable
as determined by the Board of Directors.

<P align="left"><B>&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><I>Directors Stock Plan</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Directors who are currently associated with the Investcorp Group
or the Carmel Group do not currently receive any compensation for
 serving as directors. In June&nbsp;1998, the Company&#146;s
Board of Directors adopted a non-employee director compensation
plan, which was approved in June&nbsp;1999. The plan provides for
 an aggregate of up to 50,000 shares in the form of restricted
stock grants or stock options. The Board of Directors has adopted
 a policy which provides the two non-employee directors who are
not associated with the Investcorp Group or the Carmel Group with
 an annual stipend of $25,000, of which at least $10,000 must be
paid in the form of restricted stock grants. Pursuant to this
Plan, two Directors were granted a total of 1,534 and 1,516
shares of restricted stock during fiscal 1999 and 1998,
respectively.

<P align="left"><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;Employment Agreements</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Auto has entered into an employment agreement with its Chairman
pursuant to which he is paid a fixed base salary and eligible for
 a bonus based upon earnings per share. The agreement does not
contain a stated termination date, but rather is terminable at
will by either party. If Auto were to terminate the employment of
 the Chairman without cause, or if he terminates his employment
for good reason, Auto has agreed to pay to the Chairman his base
salary and performance bonus for a period of 24&nbsp;months. The
Chairman also received a loan of $550,000 from the Company,
bearing interest at 4.545%. In consideration of the
chairman&#146;s efforts regarding the Company&#146;s acquisitions
 (see Note&nbsp;3), $300,000 was forgiven during the fourth
quarter of fiscal 1999, with the remaining balance to be forgiven
 in the first quarter of fiscal 2000. Auto had entered into an
employment agreement with its President pursuant to which he was
paid a base salary and a bonus based upon earnings per share. The
 agreement was terminated effective April&nbsp;1, 2000 in
connection with the President&#146;s retirement from day-to-day
operations.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
In connection with the commencement of his employment, the
Company agreed to pay the Chairman $1.0 million which, in turn,
was used by the Chairman to purchase 83,079 shares of common
stock from a member of the Investcorp Group, reflecting a share
value of $12.04, the fair market value at the date of the
agreement, based on the price paid for such shares in the 1996
Recapitalization. The Company also loaned the Chairman
approximately $440,000 to pay the income tax consequences of the
award. The loan bears interest at the rate applicable to
borrowings under the Revolving Credit Commitment. This loan was
paid in full in December&nbsp;1998.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
In connection with the execution of his employment agreement, the
 Company&#146;s Chairman received an option for 401,967 shares of
 common stock, exercisable at $12.04 per share. As of
January&nbsp;30, 2000, this option had vested to the extent of
200,982 shares. As a result of vesting acceleration triggered by
the IPO, this option will generally vest and become exercisable
in March 2000, subject to earlier vesting based upon the
achievement of certain EBITDA targets and the occurrence of other
 specified events. In connection with the Trak West acquisition,
the Company&#146;s Chairman received an option for 39,940 shares
of common stock, exercisable at $12.04 per share, effective as of
 February&nbsp;1, 1998. This option will vest and become
exercisable in four equal annual installments beginning in
April&nbsp;1999. In connection with the issuance of these
options, the Company will recognize a charge to earnings of
approximately $0.2 million over the vesting period for the
difference between the exercise price and the fair market value
of the common stock at the date of grant. In connection with the
IPO, the Company&#146;s Chairman received an option for 216,635
shares of common stock, exercisable at $20.00 per share, the fair
 market value at the date of grant based on the IPO. This option
will vest and become exercisable in three equal annual
installments beginning in April&nbsp;2000.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
In connection with the execution of his employment agreement, the
 Company&#146;s President received an option for 299,337 shares
of common stock, exercisable at $12.04 per share. This option has
 both vested and become exercisable to the extent of 171,048
shares. As a result of vesting acceleration triggered by the IPO,
 the remainder of this option vested and became exercisable in
March&nbsp;2000.

<P align="left"><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;Management Stock Purchase Agreements and Loans
Plans</I>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
In December&nbsp;1997, the Company entered into stock purchase
agreements with certain executives of the Company. Under the
terms of the agreements, the Company agreed to issue a total of
180,600 shares of its common stock at a price of $12.04 per
share, the same price paid in the 1996 Recapitalization. In
addition, the Company granted certain executives non-qualified
options to purchase 96,058 shares of its common stock, also at a
price of $12.04 per share. The options contain similar terms and
vesting provisions as existing options under the Company&#146;s
Executive Stock Option Plan. In connection with the issuance of
these shares, the Company recognized a charge to earnings of $0.9
 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1997 for the difference
between the issuance price and the fair market value of the stock
 at the date of sale. In addition, in the fourth quarter of
fiscal 1997, the Company recorded deferred compensation of
approximately $0.5 million to reflect the difference between the
exercise price and the fair market value of stock associated with
 the options granted to certain executives. The deferred
compensation will produce a charge to earnings over the vesting
period of the options.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Of the total consideration paid to the Company of $2.2 million in
 connection with the purchase of the Company&#146;s common stock
by certain executives, approximately $1.0 million was loaned by
the Company to certain executives to purchase 84,542 of the
shares (the &#147;Stock Loans&#148;). The Stock Loans are
collateralized by the stock under pledge agreements, provide full
 recourse to the executive, bear interest at the average rate
paid by the Company under the revolving portion of its Senior
Credit Facility, and mature in December&nbsp;2003.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The Company has recorded deferred tax assets of approximately
$2.2 million as of January&nbsp;30, 2000 reflecting the benefit
of federal tax loss carryforwards totaling $6.4 million which
begin to expire in 2013. Realization is dependent on generating
sufficient taxable income prior to expiration of the loss
carryforwards. Utilization of certain of the net operating loss
carryforwards may be limited under Section&nbsp;382 of the
Internal Revenue Code. Although realization is not assured,
management believes it is more likely than not that all the
deferred tax assets will be realized. Accordingly, the Company
believes that no valuation allowance is required for deferred tax
 assets in excess of deferred tax liabilities. The amount of the
deferred tax assets considered realizable, however, could be
reduced in the near term if estimates of future taxable income
during the carryforward period are reduced.

<P align="left"><B>Note&nbsp;12&nbsp;&#151;&nbsp;Store Closing Costs</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The Company provides an allowance for estimated costs and losses
to be incurred in connection with store closures. For stores to
be closed, such costs are recognized when a store is specifically
 identified, costs can be estimated and closure is planned to be
completed within the next twelve months (prior to
January&nbsp;31, 1999, eighteen months). For stores to be
relocated, such costs are recognized when an agreement for the
new location has been reached with a landlord and site plans meet
 preliminary municipal approvals. The allowance for store closing
 costs is included in accrued expenses in the accompanying
financial statements, and consists primarily of future rents to
be paid over the remaining terms of the master lease agreement
for stores, net of estimated sub-lease recoveries. Future rents
will be incurred through the expiration of the non-cancelable
leases, the longest of which run through June 2014.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
During the period that they remain open for business, the rent
and other operating expenses for the stores to be closed continue
 to be reflected in the Company&#146;s normal operating expenses.
 Included in store closing costs for fiscal 1999 is a charge of
$2.5 million for store closing costs that were incurred due to
overlap of certain CSK stores with more favorably sized or
situated stores acquired from Al&#146;s and Grand Auto Supply.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
As part of the purchase price allocation for the Trak West, Big
Wheel and AGA stores (see Note&nbsp;3), the Company recorded an
allowance for the costs of closing or relocating certain stores.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Adjustments to prior plans relate to costs for store closures
that were accrued in prior years but withdrawn from the
Company&#146;s store closure plan in the year of adjustment. Such
 withdrawals are due to subsequent improvements in the underlying
 economics of the store&#146;s performance or (in the case of
store relocation) because the Company was unable to secure a
previously identified site upon acceptable lease terms. The
Company had significant adjustments to prior year plans in 1997
and 1998 because of changes resulting from higher than expected
improvements in its gross profit margins in 1997-1998 and changes
 resulting from the Trak West Acquisition (see Note&nbsp;3) and
the IPO (see Note&nbsp;8). Further significant changes to the
strategic plan are not considered likely. All relocations and
store closings are anticipated to be completed within twelve
months of accrual and only after costs can be estimated.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Other cost revisions are comprised of changes in expected future
rental costs for vacant or sub-leased store locations, which are
due largely to early terminations of lease agreements.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
On a store count basis, activity and the remaining number of
stores to be closed are summarized as follows:

<P align="left"><B>Note&nbsp;13&nbsp;&#151; Legal Matters</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
On May&nbsp;4, 1998, a lawsuit was filed against the Company in
the Superior Court in San Diego, California. The case was brought
 by two former store managers and a former senior assistant
manager. It purports to be a class action for all present and
former California store managers and senior assistant managers
and seeks overtime pay for a period beginning in May 1995 as well
 as injunctive relief requiring overtime pay in the future. The
Company has also been served with two other lawsuits purporting
to be class actions filed in California state courts in Orange
and Fresno Counties by thirteen other former and current
employees. These lawsuits include similar claims to the San Diego
 lawsuit, except that they also include claims for unfair
business practices which seek overtime from October 1994. The
Orange County lawsuit initially included claims for punitive
damages and unlawful conversion, but the Court subsequently
dismissed both of these claims.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The three cases have been &#147;coordinated&#148; before one
judge in San Diego County. Discovery has been conducted by the
parties. On January&nbsp;19, 2000, as amended on January&nbsp;27,
 2000, the judge issued an order allowing the coordinated
lawsuits to proceed as class actions, with class periods of May
1994 through January 2000 for store managers and October 1994
through July 1997 for senior assistant managers. The Company
filed a Petition for Writ of Mandate seeking appellate review of
the foregoing order which was not successful. On March&nbsp;23,
2000, the Company filed a Petition for Review by the California
Supreme Court to have the trial court&#146;s order reversed.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Although the Company cannot estimate the potential loss or range
of loss at this time, if these cases are permitted to proceed as
class actions and are decided against it, the Company believes
that the aggregate potential exposure could be material to
results of operations or cash flows for the year in which the
cases are ultimately decided. However, the Company does not
believe that such an adverse outcome, if it were to happen, would
 materially affect its financial position, or its operations or
cash flows in subsequent periods. Although at this stage in the
litigation it is difficult to predict its outcome with any

defenses to these cases and intends to defend them vigorously.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The Company was served on March&nbsp;8, 2000 with a complaint
filed in Federal Court in the Eastern District of New York by the
 Coalition for a Level Playing Field, L.L.C. and
179&nbsp;individual auto parts dealers alleging that the Company
and seven other auto parts dealers (AutoZone, Inc., Wal-Mart
Stores, Inc., Advance Stores Company, Inc., Discount Auto, Inc.,
The Pep Boys&nbsp;&#151; Manny, Moe and Jack, Inc., O&#146;Reilly
 Automotive, Inc., and Keystone Automotive Operations, Inc.)
violated the Robinson-Patman Act. Only 14 of the individual
plaintiffs asserted claims against the Company, and three of
those have voluntarily dismissed their claims without prejudice.
The complaint alleges that the Company and other defendants
knowingly either induced or received discriminatory prices from
large suppliers, allegedly in violation of Section&nbsp;2(a)
and&nbsp;2(f) of the Robinson-Patman Act, as well as receiving
compensation from large suppliers for services not performed for
those suppliers, allegedly in violation of Section&nbsp;2(c) of
the Robinson-Patman Act. The complaint seeks injunctive relief
against all defendants and seeks treble damages on behalf of the
individual

auto parts dealers who are plaintiffs, plus attorneys&#146; fees.
 The complaint alleges that the estimated average damage amount
per plaintiff is $1,000,000 (and more for those plaintiffs that
are wholesale distributors and not simply jobbers) before
trebling. The Company believes the suit is without merit and
plans to vigorously defend it.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The Company currently and from time to time is involved in other
litigation incidental to the conduct of its business. The damages
 claimed in some of this litigation are substantial. Although the
 amount of liability that may result from these matters cannot be
 ascertained, the Company does not currently believe that, in the
 aggregate, they will result in liabilities material to its
consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash
flows.

<P align="left"><B>Note 15&nbsp;&#151; Subsequent Events</B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
During March&nbsp;2000, the Company entered into a definitive
agreement to acquire substantially all of the assets of All-Car
Distributors, Inc. (&#147;AllCar&#148;), an operator of 22 stores
 in Wisconsin and Michigan. Under the terms of the agreement, the
 Company will pay approximately $865,000 in cash for the assets
of AllCar and will assume vendor accounts payable and certain
indebtedness and accrued expenses. The closing, which is subject
to the satisfaction of certain conditions, is expected to occur
on April&nbsp;27, 2000. The acquisition of the 22 AllCar stores
gives the Company an immediate presence of scale in a
strategically important market adjacent to our current
operations. The acquired stores will be serviced out of its
Minneapolis Distribution Center and will be converted to the
Checker Auto Parts name.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
During January&nbsp;2000, the Company entered into a definitive
agreement with Advance Auto Parts and Sequoia Capital to form a
new joint venture, PartsAmerica.com, which is expected to become
one of the largest automotive parts and accessories e-commerce
destinations in the $90 billion automotive parts and accessories
market. PartsAmerica.com will operate independently from its
partners and will utilize both CSK&#146;s and Advance&#146;s
existing logistic systems to suport its web-based operations.
PartsAmerica.com will offer both retail and commercial customers
the widest available selection of automotive parts and delivery
options, including same-day delivery, local in-store pickup, and
overnight shipment. In addition, because of 50-state coverage,
customers will be able to return or exchange merchandise at their
 local CSK or Advance Auto Parts store. The Company has
contributed the use of the e-commerce capabilities of its
existing web site and certain other assets to the joint venture.
The Company is a party to a service agreement with
PartsAmerica.com that governs the terms of our sale of
merchandise to PartsAmerica.com and certain other services that
the Company is to provide to the joint venture. PartsAmerica.com
is expected to commence operations in July&nbsp;2000.

Our audits of the consolidated financial statements referred to
