     FOURTH AMENDMENT, dated as of December 18, 2007 (this “Amendment”), to the CREDIT
AGREEMENT dated as of June 30, 2006 (as amended, supplemented or modified from time to time, the
“Credit Agreement”) among CSK AUTO, INC., the Lenders party thereto, and JPMORGAN CHASE
BANK, N.A., as Administrative Agent., and LEHMAN COMMERCIAL PAPER INC. and WACHOVIA BANK, NATIONAL
ASSOCIATION, as Co-Syndication Agents.

W I T N E S S E T H:

          WHEREAS, the Company, the Administrative Agent, the Co-Syndication Agents and the Lenders are
parties to the Credit Agreement;

          WHEREAS, the parties hereto have agreed to amend the Credit Agreement upon the terms and
conditions set forth herein;

          NOW, THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, and in consideration of the premises contained herein, the parties hereto agree as
follows:

          1. Defined Terms. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms which are
defined in the Credit Agreement are used herein as defined therein.

          2. Amendments to Credit Agreement.

          (a) Amendments to Section 1.01. Effective upon the Effective Date (as defined below),
Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by:

          (i) deleting the definition of “Applicable Rate” where it appears therein, and
inserting in lieu thereof, the following new definition:

          ““Applicable Rate” means, for any day, with respect to any Eurodollar Loan or ABR
Loan, the applicable rate per annum set forth below under the caption “Eurodollar Spread” or “ABR
Spread” as applicable, based upon the then current corporate ratings issued by Moody’s and S&P for
the Company, and provided, that if at any time either of Moody’s or S&P does not have or
withdraws its rating on the Company, for the purposes hereof, the rating shall be deemed to be less
than B2or B, as the case may be:

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	Grid Level	 	Moody’s Rating	 	Eurodollar Spread	 	ABR Spread
	1

	 	>B2
	 	 	5.00	%	 	 	4.00	%
	2

	 	B2
	 	 	6.00	%	 	 	5.00	%
	3

	 	<B2
	 	 	7.00	%	 	 	6.00	%

          If at any time the S&P rating for the Company is less than B then Grid Level 3 shall apply
(notwithstanding the then current Moody’s rating). If at any time the S&P rating for the Company
is equal to or greater than B, the current Moody’s rating shall determine the Grid Level. If any
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing as of any date on which the Applicable Rate
would have otherwise been adjusted in accordance with this definition, the Applicable Rate shall in
no event be

 

 

reduced on such date (from the Applicable Rate as in effect prior to such date) until such
Event of Default is cured or waived.”

          (ii) amending the definition of “Consolidated EBITDAR” by (a) deleting the word “and”
where it appears before clause (xii) thereof and adding “, and” at the end of such clause,
and (b) by adding, immediately prior to the words “less (b)” where they appear
therein, a new clause (xiii) thereto as follows:

     “(xiii) any expense or write-off of deferred debt issuance costs and amendment fees
related to this Agreement”

          (iii) amending the definition of “Interest Expense” by deleting the “)” where it
appears after the word “Loans” therein.

          (iv) inserting the following new definitions in appropriate alphabetical order:

     ““Fourth Amendment” means the fourth amendment, dated as of December 18, 2007,
to this Agreement.

     “Fourth Amendment Effective Date” means December 18, 2007.

     “PIK Component” means (i) if Grid Level 2 (as set forth in the definition of
Applicable Rate) is applicable, 0.50% per annum, or (ii) if Grid Level 3 (as set forth in
the definition of Applicable Rate) is applicable, 1.00% per annum.”

          (b) Amendment to Section 2.05. Section 2.05 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended
by (i) deleting the words “(other than any credit facility incurred, or repricing effected,
concurrently with a Change of Control)” after the word “Loans” where it first appears in the second
proviso thereof, (ii) deleting the word “first” where it appears in the second proviso thereof and
inserting the word “second” in lieu thereof; and (iii) deleting the term “Third Amendment Effective
Date” where it appears in the second proviso thereof and inserting “Fourth Amendment Effective
Date” in lieu thereof.

          (c) Amendment to Section 2.06. Section 2.06(c) of the Credit Agreement is hereby
amended by adding the following new sentence at the end of such Section:

          “Each prepayment of Loans under this Section prior to the second anniversary of the Fourth
Amendment Effective Date shall be subject to a prepayment premium equal to 1% of the Loans so
prepaid, which premium shall be payable on the date of such prepayment.”

          (d) Amendment to Section 2.08. Section 2.08(f) of the Credit Agreement is hereby
amended so that it provides as follows:

          “(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions
and continuations of Eurodollar Loans and all selections of Interest Periods shall be in such
amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, (i) after giving effect thereto, the
aggregate principal amount of each Eurodollar Loan shall be equal to $5,000,000 or (subject to
Section 2.13(f)), a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (ii) no more than one
Eurodollar Loan shall be outstanding at any one time.”

          (e) Amendment to Section 2.13. Section 2.13 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended
by adding the following new clause (f) at the end of such Section:

-2-

 

          “(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have the option, with any interest
accruing on and after January 8, 2008 to pay the PIK Component included in any interest payment by
adding such PIK Component to the principal of the Loans as of the Interest Payment Date on which
such interest payment is due. The Company may exercise such option with respect to the interest
payable on any Interest Payment Date by giving irrevocable notice of such exercise to the
Administrative Agent no later than (i) in the case of interest payable on a Eurodollar Borrowing,
the date of the Interest Election Request for the Interest Period related to such Interest Payment
Date and (ii) in the case of interest payable on an ABR Borrowing, the later of the Interest
Election Request related to the conversion thereof from a Eurodollar Borrowing or the last Interest
Payment Date for such ABR Borrowing, (it being understood that if no such notice is given all of
such PIK Component shall be payable in cash). Any principal of the Loans resulting from interest
being paid under this clause (f) by adding such interest to the principal of the Loans may be
included in Eurodollar Loans without regard to the whole multiple requirement of Section 2.08(f).”

          (f) Amendment to Section 6.07. Effective upon the Effective Date, Section 6.07 of the
Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting such Section in its entirety and inserting in lieu
thereof the following new Section:

Re: Harvey Electronics, Inc. Secured Convertible Debenture No. HRVE-1-3, dated
    August 21, 2007, issued to YA Global Investments, L.P. (the "Debenture")

Gentlemen:

     Capitalized  terms not defined herein shall have the meaning  assigned them
in the  Debenture.  As you are aware,  by reason of the  Common  Stock of Harvey
Electronics, Inc. (the "Company") having been delisted from, or no longer quoted
for,  trading on the Nasdaq  Capital  Market,  an Event of Default has  occurred
under  section  2(a)(iv) of the  Debenture.  As a  consequence  of this Event of
Default,  YA  Global  Investments,  LP,  ("YA")  and  the  Company  agree  that,
notwithstanding any provisions of the Debenture or any other agreement, document
or  instrument  to the  contrary:  (a) the full unpaid  Principal  amount of the
Debenture, together with interest and other amounts owing in respect thereof, is
hereby immediately due and payable in cash, without the necessity of the passage
of additional  time; (b) YA may remove from escrow the sum of  $375,000.00  that
had been placed in escrow  pursuant to section 4(d) of the  Securities  Purchase
Agreement  dated as of August 21, 2007 and apply such amount to the  accelerated
indebtedness under the Debenture; and (c) YA shall refrain from pursuing further
collection rights and remedies under the Debenture, the Security Agreement dated
as of August 21, 2007,  or any other  agreement,  document or  instrument  for a
period of not more than ten (10) days from the date hereof,  but in any event no
later than the date upon  which the  Company  may  commence,  or have  commenced
against the Company, proceedings for relief under the bankruptcy or similar laws
relating to debtor or creditor relief.

<PAGE>

     If you are in  agreement  with the  foregoing  terms,  kindly  execute this
letter  agreement where  indicated below and return the executed  original and a
copy to me as soon as possible.
