Explanation of Responses:

1. The shares will be delivered to the reporting person immediately upon the date on which the reporting person ceases to be a director for any reason, provided that such reporting person incurs a "separation from service" from the issuer (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and the related Treasury Regulations) (the "Termination Date"), unless the reporting person has irrevocably elected in writing to defer the delivery of such shares: (1) in a single lump-sum payment on the fifth anniversary of the Termination Date; (2) in a single lump-sum payment on the tenth anniversary of the Termination Date; or (3) in two equal installments on each of the fifth and tenth anniversaries of the Termination Date.

2. The shares are restricted stock units (fully vested on the date of grant) issued to the reporting person in accordance with the AutoZone, Inc. 2011 Equity Incentive Award Plan and the AutoZone, Inc. 2011 Director Compensation Program in lieu of pro-rated quarterly retainer fees in an aggregate amount equal to $17,391.30. The number of shares of the issuer's common stock underlying the restricted stock unit award is equal to the reporting person's pro-rated aggregate quarterly retainer fee, divided by $419.94, the closing market price of a share of the issuer's common stock on August 30, 2013.
