What Has Caused the LBO Boom?
1. Historically Loose Credit Markets
• Pay more and still get required return on equity (ROE)
2. Lower required investor returns
• More money chasing deals
3. Institutionalization of private companies
• Private companies more liquid than ever
Capital Markets Update
11
• Leverage multiples in LBO transactions remain at historical highs
– Higher debt allows PE firms to pay more

Capital Markets UpdateLeverage Summary Concepts

• With the recent developments in the credit markets and the resulting lack of liquidity, it is uncertain whether the strong volume of M&A transactions seen over the past 24 months will continue
Impacts of credit crunch will likely be:
• More equity and less debt will lead to lower valuations
• Lower PEG valuations will result in a re-emergence of the strategic buyer
• Middle market M&A will be significantly more insulated than larger transactions
– Smaller deals don’t require syndication
• Quality deals will still receive premium valuation

III. Automotive Aftermarket Update
24
• After a slow start to September, October is picking up, but certain geographic areas remain weak
• Retailers are trying to follow the growth to DIFM
• Retailers aggressively seeking direct sourcing opportunities
Automotive Aftermarket UpdateKey Takeaways
25
• After a slow beginning to September we are seeing acceleration in October and we are beginning to hear some cautious optimism, despite up-tick in gas prices
• Regional performance differences exist
• We believe the deferral of routine maintenance that began in early 2006 has spurred significant reductions in discretionary automotive maintenance
• However, our outlook is cautiously optimistic for the remainder of Q4 and into 2008 as this trend reverses and the macro economic environment stabilizes

• To continue to drive top-line growth, DIY focused retailers are repositioning their business model for DIFM distribution growth
Automotive Aftermarket UpdateDIY to DIFM
“I think clearly we have the greatest opportunity on Commercial. We have 13% market share on DIY, 1.3% on Commercial. We have a tremendous long-term opportunity in Commercial and a tremendous long-term opportunity in DIY, but we have a more mature model in DIY than we do in Commercial.”
September 18, 2007
“We are increasing our commercial focus to take greater advantage of the full potential of the large and growing commercial market. We believe that over the last few quarters we've missed meaningful opportunities to drive our commercial sales, and as a result, our comp growth in this area has slowed.”

Automotive Aftermarket UpdateDirect Sourcing
• In addition to top line growth, parts distributors are looking to increase direct sourcing to reduce costs and grow earnings
– Currently, most dual marketers have only a small percentage (5-10%) – but expect this to increase over time
– Parts coverage, quality and fill rates are no longer such obstacles
– Profit improvement should be a direct result – with greater benefit to the first movers
“We use a combination of private label, and prominent national brands to offer a better-best, or in some cases a good-better-best strategy across key categories. This allows us to take advantage of the gross margin opportunities that come from importing products from lower cost countries where some of the aftermarket products are being manufactured.”
April 25, 2007
“We also believe that we have significant opportunity in direct importing over time…We began it in earnest about two years ago…and we are working now on our parts area as the quality in China becomes acceptable to bring in more product.”
