Officer, or me. It is understood that you shall perform these services from the
Company's principal offices in Phoenix, Arizona, your home or any other
location, at your discretion. You shall work such hours as are necessary to
perform the designated work, with the understanding that nothing herein shall be
deemed to prohibit you from engaging in outside employment that does not
interfere with your ability to perform your Company-assigned duties and
responsibilities.

2. You shall be paid an annual base salary of $100,000, to be paid on a
bi-weekly basis.

3. You shall continue to receive such medical, dental, insurance, 401(k) and

4. With respect to the terms of the Stock Option Agreement dated November 1,
1996 and two separate Non-Qualified Stock Option Contracts dated March 18, 1999
and December 21, 1999, respectively (collectively, the "Stock Option
Agreements"), it is understood that your change in employment status as of the
Effective Date shall not serve to terminate the vesting or exerciseability of
any stock options granted to you, and such vesting and exerciseability shall be
governed by the terms of the Stock Option Agreements based on your continued
employment with the Company.

5. Upon presentation of acceptable substantiation therefor, the Company will pay
or reimburse you for such reasonable travel, entertainment and other expenses as
you may incur during your employment in connection with the performance of his
duties hereunder. Federal, state and local income taxes shall be withheld on all
cash and in-kind payments made by the Company to you in accordance with
applicable tax laws and regulations.

or (c) is required by law, a court of competent jurisdiction, or a governmental
or regulatory agency. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "proprietary
information" shall mean: (a) the name or address of any customer, supplier or
affiliate of the Company, or any information concerning the transactions or
relations of any customer, supplier or affiliate of the Company or any of its
shareholders; (b) any information concerning any product, technology or
procedure employed by the Company, but not generally known to its customers,
suppliers or competitors, or under development by or being tested by the

any information relating to the marketing methods, sales margins, discounts,
rebates, suppliers incentives, or the like, the capital structure, or results of
any business plan of the Company; (d) any information contained in the Company's
policies and procedures or employees' manual; (e) any inventions, innovations,
trade secrets or other items covered by Paragraph 7 below; and (f) any other
information which the Board has determined by resolution and communicated to you
to be confidential or proprietary. However, proprietary information shall not
include any information that is or becomes generally known to the industries in
which the Company competes other than through your actions in violation of this
paragraph.

7. You agree that, while you are employed by the Company or at any time
thereafter, you shall not, except as required by law, give any "confidential
records" (as hereinafter defined) to, or permit any inspection or copying of

such individual's or entity's employment or retention by the Company or as

establish and confirm such ownership by the Company.

9. For purposes of this letter, the term "Company" shall include the Company and
any and all of its subsidiaries, ventures or affiliates, whether currently
existing or hereafter formed.

10. The parties hereto agree that the duration and area for which the covenants
set forth herein are to be effective are reasonable. In the event that any court
or arbitrator determines that the time period of the area, or both of them, are
unreasonable and that any of the covenants are to that extent unenforceable, the
parties hereto agree that such covenants will remain in full force and effect,
first, for the greatest time period, and second, in the greatest geographical
area that would not render them unenforceable. The parties intend that this
Agreement will be deemed to be a series of separate covenants, one for each and
every county of each and every state of the United States of America. You agree
that damages are an inadequate remedy for any breach of

the covenants in this letter, and the Company will, whether or not it is
pursuing any potential remedies at law, be entitled to equitable relief in the

upon any actual or threatened breach of this Agreement.

11. As of the Effective Date, the Employment Agreement as amended and restated
as of June 12, 1998 between you and the Company shall be deemed to be terminated
and of no further force or effect.

12. You represent that you are free to enter into this agreement and that you
are not bound by any agreement or other restriction which would interfere with
your acceptance of employment or the full, timely and faithful performance of
your duties.

subject matter hereof, may not be amended except in writing, and shall be of no
force or effect until signed by both parties hereto.

without cause, and upon such termination you shall not be entitled to any
further compensation or benefits hereunder. Nothing herein shall be construed as
modifying the "at will" employment relationship described herein, except by
written document executed by the President or me.

If the foregoing is acceptable, please acknowledge your agreement to the terms
and conditions set forth above by signing and dating below.

Very truly yours,

Agreement, dated as of January 27, 1997, as amended and restated in its entirety
by that certain Amended and Restated Employment Agreement, dated as of June 12,
1998 (the "Employment Agreement");

         WHEREAS, pursuant to such Employment Agreement, the Company entered

Company loaned to Executive the principal amount of Five Hundred Fifty Thousand
Dollars ($550,000.00) pursuant to the terms of a promissory note dated February
27, 1997 (the "Note"), a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit "A";

         WHEREAS, the Transition Loan was secured by a deed of trust dated

principal and accrued interest was due and payable on March 1, 1999;

         WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company, by that certain
Unanimous Written Consent In Lieu of a Meeting of the Board of Directors of CSK
Auto, Inc., dated September 24, 1999, consented to the adoption of certain
resolutions (the "Board Resolutions") regarding the Employment Agreement and the
Transition Loan; and

         WHEREAS, the Company and Executive desire to amend certain provisions
of the Employment Agreement in order to reflect and properly implement the Board
Resolutions.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration for Executive's efforts regarding the

acquisition by the Company of PACCAR Automotive, Inc., now known as Al's and
Grand Auto Supply, Inc. (the "Al's and Grand Acquisition"), the

2. Forgiveness of the Transition Loan.Provided that Executive remains employed
by the Company on each of November 1, 1999, and February 1, 2000 (unless
Executive's failure to remain employed by the Company is due to a termination by
the Company), Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000.00) of the Transition
Loan shall be forgiven by the Company on November 1, 1999, and the remaining Two
Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00) of the Transition Loan, plus any

Paragraph 1 of this Amendment. In the event that Executive voluntarily
terminates his employment with the Company prior to either November 1, 1999, or

duly executed as of the day and year first written above.
