Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

As previously reported in CSK Auto Corporation’s (the “Company”) Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 7, 2006, CSK Auto, Inc. (“Auto”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, received a notice from the holders of over 25% in aggregate principal amount of its 3 3/8% Senior Exchangeable Notes due 2025 (the “3 3/8% Notes”) on July 5, 2006 that such holders had accelerated the 3 3/8% Notes as a result of the failure to file the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended January 29, 2006 with the trustee for the 3 3/8% Notes before July 2, 2006 (the end of the cure period for the previously disclosed defaults under the indenture governing the 3 3/8% Notes). On July 10, 2006, Auto borrowed an aggregate principal amount of $125 million under its previously announced new Term Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) to retire all of the $125 million of outstanding 3 3/8% Notes.

The borrowing is guaranteed by the Company and CSKAUTO.COM, Inc. (“AUTO.COM”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Auto, and is secured by a second lien security interest in the inventory and receivables of Auto and the guarantors and by a first lien security interest in substantially all of their other assets. The borrowing is required to be repaid in consecutive quarterly installments, commencing December 31, 2006, in an amount equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the loans under the Credit Agreement (the “Term Loans”), with the balance payable in full on the sixth anniversary of the Closing Date (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The Credit Agreement contains, among other things, limitations on liens, indebtedness, mergers, dispositions of assets, investments, payments in respect of capital stock, modifications of material indebtedness, changes in fiscal year, transactions with affiliates, lines of business, and swap agreements. Auto is also subject to financial covenants under the Credit Agreement measuring its performance against standards set for leverage and fixed charge coverage.

The Term Loans bear interest at a base rate or the Eurodollar rate, as defined in the Credit Agreement, plus, in either case, a margin that fluctuates depending upon the rating of the Term Loans.
