Item 5.02
Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

(e) On November 3, 2014, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of LKQ Corporation (the “Company”) approved amendments to the Company’s Long Term Incentive Plan (the “LTIP”).  The primary purposes of the amendments, which will be applicable to performance periods under the LTIP commencing on or after January 1, 2015, were (i) to allow the grant of three year performance awards each year (i.e. overlapping performance periods) instead of the current practice of granting three year performance awards every three years (i.e. end-to-end performance periods), (ii) to eliminate the deferred vesting concept (i.e. the full award would be payable at the end of the applicable performance period instead of 50% of the award being paid in equal installments over three years following the end of the performance period), (iii) to increase, subject to stockholder approval, the maximum dollar amount of any one performance award, (iv) to allow a pro rata payment of a performance award in the event of a participant’s death or disability during the applicable performance period, and (v) to allow continuation of vesting of a performance award in the event of a qualifying retirement during the applicable performance period.

This summary does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the LTIP, as amended, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
