FOR

THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT is made, entered into, and is effective as of
the 1st day of August, 2004 (the "Effective Date"), by and between CarMax, Inc.,
a Virginia Corporation, and its affiliated companies (collectively, the
"Company") and ____________________________ (the "Executive").

WHEREAS, the Company recognizes the Executive's intimate knowledge and
experience in the business of the Company, and desires to employ the Executive
in the role of [Title] of the Company;

WHEREAS, the Executive will develop and/or come in contact with the
Company's proprietary and confidential information that is not readily available
to the public, and which is of great importance to the Company and is treated by
the Company as secret and confidential information; and

WHEREAS, the Company and Executive desire to agree upon the terms,
conditions, compensation and benefits of Executive's future employment; and

WHEREAS, upon execution of this Agreement, any prior employment
agreement between the Executive and the Company and/or Circuit City Stores,
Inc., whether oral or written, will have no force and effect with respect to the
terms and conditions of Executive's employment and will be replaced and
superseded by the terms of this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the Executive's continued
employment and of the mutual covenants and agreements of the parties set forth
in this Agreement, and of other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to
be legally bound, agree as follows:

Article 1. Term of Employment

The Company hereby agrees to employ the Executive and the Executive
hereby accepts employment as [Title] of the Company, in accordance with the
terms and conditions set forth herein, for an initial period of two (2) years,
commencing as of the Effective Date of this Agreement as indicated above (the
"Initial Term"); subject, however, to earlier termination as expressly provided
herein.

The Initial Term will automatically be extended for an additional
period of one (1) year at the end of the Initial Term, and then again each
successive year thereafter (collectively, the "Renewal Periods," which, together
with the Initial Term, constitute the "Term" of this Agreement). This Agreement
will not, however, be extended if either party gives written notice of its

intent not to renew, delivered at least ninety (90) days before the end of the
Initial Term or any Renewal Period. For purposes of this Agreement, an
"Employment Year" shall mean any twelve (12) month period during the Term of
this Agreement beginning on the Effective Date or on any anniversary thereof.

Article 2. Position and Responsibilities

Company and such other duties and responsibilities not inconsistent with the

location shall be the corporate headquarters of the Company located in the
