Set forth below is a line graph comparing the yearly dollar change in the cumulative total shareholder return on the Company’s
Common Stock against the cumulative total shareholder return of the Standard and Poor’s 500 Stock Index and a peer group composite
index structured by the Company as set forth below for the five year period that commenced December 31, 2004 and ended December 31,
2009. This graph assumes that $100 was invested on December 31, 2004 in Genuine Parts Company Common Stock, the S&P 500
Stock Index (the Company is a member of the S&P 500, and its cumulative total shareholder return went into calculating the S&P 500
results set forth in the graph) and the peer group composite index as set forth below and assumes reinvestment of all dividends.

In constructing the peer group composite index (“Peer Index”) for use in the stock performance graph above, the Company used the
shareholder returns of various publicly held companies (weighted in accordance with each company’s stock market capitalization at
December 31, 2004 and including reinvestment of dividends) that compete with the Company in three industry segments: automotive
parts, industrial parts and office products (each group of companies included in the Peer Index as competing with the Company in a
separate industry segment is hereinafter referred to as a “Peer Group”). Included in the automotive parts Peer Group are those companies
making up the Dow Jones Auto Parts and Equipment Index (the Company is a member of such industry group, and its individual
shareholder return was included when calculating the Peer Index results set forth in the performance graph). Included in the industrial
parts Peer Group are Applied Industrial Technologies, Inc. and Kaman Corporation and included in the office products Peer Group is
United Stationers Inc. The Peer Index does not break out a separate electrical/electronic peer group due to the fact that there is currently no
true market comparative to EIS. The electrical/electronic component of sales is redistributed to the Company’s other segments on a pro
rata basis to calculate the final Peer Index.
