     This Amendment No. 4 supplements the information set forth in the Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), as amended from time to time (the "Schedule 13D"), relating to Common Stock, par value $0.01 (the "Common Stock"), of LKQ Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer"). All capitalized terms contained herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D.

     The information set forth in response to each separate Item below shall be deemed to be a response to all Items where such information is relevant. The Schedule 13D is hereby supplementally amended as follows:

Item 5.    Interest in Securities of the Issuer
   
     The responses to Items 3, 4 and 6 of this Schedule 13D are incorporated herein by reference.
 
     (a) and (b). Set forth below is the beneficial ownership of shares of Common Stock of the Issuer for each person named in Item 2. Shares reported as beneficially owned by ValueAct Master Fund are also reported as beneficially owned by (i) ValueAct Management L.P. as the manager of each such investment partnership, (ii) ValueAct Management LLC, as General Partner of ValueAct Management L.P., (iii) ValueAct Holdings, as the majority owner of the membership interests of VA Partners I, (iv) ValueAct Holdings II, as the sole owner of the limited partnership interests of ValueAct Management L.P. and the membership interests of ValueAct Management LLC, and (v) ValueAct Holdings GP, as General Partner of ValueAct Holdings and ValueAct Holdings II.  Shares reported as beneficially owned by ValueAct Master Fund are also reported as beneficially owned by VA Partners I, as General Partner of ValueAct Master Fund.  VA Partners I, ValueAct Management L.P., ValueAct Management LLC, ValueAct Holdings, ValueAct Holdings II, and ValueAct Holdings GP also, directly or indirectly, may own interests in one or more than one of the partnerships from time to time. Unless otherwise indicated below, by reason of such relationship ValueAct Master Fund is reported as having shared power to vote or to direct the vote, and shared power to dispose or direct the disposition of, such shares of Common Stock, with VA Partners I (only with respect to ValueAct Master Fund), ValueAct Management L.P., ValueAct Management LLC, ValueAct Holdings, ValueAct Holdings II, and ValueAct Holdings GP.

     As of the date hereof, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of 12,552,751 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 4.4% of the Issuer's outstanding Common Stock. All percentages set forth in this Schedule 13D are based upon the Issuer's reported 282,832,938 outstanding shares of Common Stock as of April 29, 2022 as reported in the Issuer's Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2022.    

     (c) The following table sets forth all transactions with respect to shares of Common Stock effected in the previous sixty days to this Schedule 13D by the Reporting Persons, inclusive of any transactions effected through 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on May 19, 2022. Except as otherwise noted below, all such transactions were purchases or sales of shares of Common Stock effected in the open market.

     (e)  The Reporting Persons have ceased to be beneficial owners of more than five percent of Issuer's Common Stock, and accordingly, their obligation to file a Schedule 13D has been terminated.


Item 6.     Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

     The responses to Items 3, 4, 5 and 7 of this Schedule 13D are incorporated  herein by reference.

     Other than as described in this Report and as previously reported, the Reporting Persons have no understandings, arrangements, relationships or contracts relating to the Issuer's Common Stock which are required to be described hereunder.
