The LTIP award (if any) of each executive officer would be equal to the executive officer’s base salary at December 31, 2018 multiplied by the payout percentage that corresponds to the performance goal achieved by the Company.

| 4. | Grants of performance-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”) under the Company’s 1998 Equity Incentive Plan with a value equal to certain dollar amounts, which translate (at an assumed stock price of $28.31 per share, calculated as the average of the high and low sales prices on December 14) into the number of units set forth below. The RSUs will be issued on January 8, 2016 (the second Friday of January 2016). The actual number of RSUs issued will be adjusted based on the average of the high and low sales prices of the Company’s common stock on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on January 8, 2016. Each RSU will convert into one share of LKQ common stock on the applicable vesting date. The RSUs will be subject to two vesting conditions, each of which must be satisfied: (a) time-based vesting equal to 16.67% of the number of RSUs subject to the award (rounded to the nearest whole share) on July 14, 2016 and on each six-month anniversary of July 14, 2016; and (b) a performance-based condition of positive fully-diluted earnings per share of the Company (subject to adjustment for certain extraordinary items) for any of the first five fiscal years ending after the grant date. If and when the performance-based condition is met, all RSUs that had previously met the time-based vesting condition will vest immediately and the remaining RSUs will vest according to the remaining schedule of the time-based condition. If the performance-based condition is not met, all RSUs will be forfeited. The RSUs will be subject to the terms and conditions of a Performance-Based Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, the form of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this report on Form 8-K. RSU grants are subject to the full terms of the Equity Incentive Plan, which was included as Appendix A to our 2013 Proxy Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 22, 2013.
