Explanation of Responses:
1. Each derivative security represents the right to receive one share of common stock.
2. One hundred percent (100%) of the restricted stock units granted on August 21, 2007 have vested.
3. One-hundred percent (100%) of the restricted stock units paid as a dividend in connection with the restricted stock units granted on August, 21 2007 have vested.
4. This director has elected to defer payment under the Restricted Stock Unit Deferral Program (the "Program") of the restricted stock units issued under the Circuit City Stores, Inc. 2000 Non-Employee Director Stock Incentive Plan. Vested deferred units are held as "phantom stock" in a phantom stock account. Dividends on vested and unvested units will be reinvested until distributions are made. The shares of common stock underlying the phantom stock units in the director's account will be distributed to the director when he ceases to serve as a director of the company.
