Item 1.01.    Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
 
The Pep Boys - Manny, Moe & Jack (the "Company") is revising its executive compensation program to eliminate the retirement plan contributions that have historically been made by the Company under (i) The Pep Boys Deferred Compensation Plan, effective for fiscal year 2014, and (ii) the Company's supplemental executive retirement plan (known as the Account Plan), effective for calendar 2015. In their place, the Company will increase the annual equity grant target amounts for executives. The aggregate equity grants will be delivered 40% in performance share units, 40% in stock options and 20% in restricted stock units.

On January 31, 2014, we amended and restated The Pep Boys Deferred Compensation Plan and the Account Plan to reflect these changes.
