Regulations
We are subject to various federal, state and local laws and governmental regulations relating to our business, including those related to
the handling, storage and disposal of hazardous substances, the recycling of batteries and used lubricants, and the ownership and
operation of real property.
As part of our operations, we handle hazardous materials in the ordinary course of business and our customers may bring hazardous
materials onto our property in connection with, for example, our oil and battery recycling programs. We currently provide a recycling
program for batteries and the collection of used lubricants at certain of our stores as a service to our customers pursuant to agreements
with third-party vendors. The batteries and used lubricants are collected by our associates, deposited into vendor-supplied containers
and pallets, and then disposed of by the third-party vendors. In general, our agreements with such vendors contain provisions that are
designed to limit our potential liability under applicable environmental regulations for any damage or contamination, which may be
caused by the batteries and lubricants to off-site properties (including as a result of waste disposal) and to our properties, when caused
by the vendor.
Compliance with any such laws and regulations has not had a material adverse effect on our operations to date. We cannot give any
assurance, however, that we will not incur significant expenses in the future in order to comply with any such laws or regulations.
