Re: Notice of Nomination of Individuals for Election as Directors at the 
2008 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of Circuit City Stores, Inc. 
 
Dear Mr. Wattles: 
 
                   We are in receipt of your letter dated February 25, 2008. As you know, we 
announced on October 15, 2007 that one of our directors intends not to stand for 
reelection to our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors presently intends not to fill 
the vacancy created, and to amend our bylaws effective the date of the 2008 
Annual Meeting of Shareholders, to provide that the number of directors shall be 
eleven (11) and not twelve (12). Accordingly, there would be four (4) directors 
rather than five (5) elected at the 2008 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Please 
advise which of your five (5) nominees you would withdraw. 
 
As described in our proxy statement, our Nominating & Governance 
Committee considers director nominees recommended by our shareholders. In that 
connection, we would like to schedule meetings between each of your nominees 
and one or more representatives of our Nominating & Governance Committee in 
New York on any day between March 3, 2008 and March 12, 2008. Please advise 
whether your nominees are amenable to such meetings during that time frame.                            
 
Sincerely,
 
                                                                  /s/ Reginald D. Hedgebeth
