(a)

Advance Stores Company, Incorporated (“Advance Stores”) shall serve as the Plan Sponsor, and shall be responsible for all fiduciary functions under the Plan except insofar as any such authority or responsibility is assigned by or pursuant to the Plan to another name fiduciary, or is delegated to another fiduciary pursuant to subsection (b) below. In that regard, Advance Stores shall be the “Administrator” of the Plan within the meaning of ERISA. The authority and responsibility reserved or assigned to Advance Stores shall be exercised by an authorized officer or by the Compensation Committee.
