will be made in cash. Payment of the deferred Retirement Amount and fees credited to the stock accounts will be made in common stock. The deferred fees and Retirement Amount will be paid to the director either (i) in a lump sum on the date specified
by the director, (ii) in substantially equal annual installments, not to exceed ten, (iii) in a lump sum upon a Change in Control or threatened Change in Control (as defined in the Plan), or (iv) if no election is made, on 60 days following the date

director, or if no method is selected, within 60 days after the director&#146;s death. If a director does not designate any beneficiaries or the beneficiaries have predeceased the director, the balance in the accounts will be paid to the

director have any property rights in any particular assets held by the Registrant, whether or not held for the purpose of meeting the Registrant&#146;s obligations hereunder. The Obligations will not have the benefit of a negative pledge or any

and officers in terms sufficiently broad to permit such indemnification under certain circumstances for liabilities (including reimbursement for expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the &#147;Securities
Act&#148;). Article XIV of the Registrant&#146;s Bylaws, as amended and restated, provides for indemnification of its directors, officers, employees and other agents to the maximum extent permitted by Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation
Law. </FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></DIV> <DIV STYLE="text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000">Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted for directors,
officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law and the foregoing bylaw provision or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer
or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the
opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue. </FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></DIV> <DIV STYLE="text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000">The Registrant carries directors&#146; and officers&#146;

In addition, pursuant to Rule 416(c) under the Securities Act of 1933 this

(2)
If, prior to the completion of the distribution of the Common Stock covered

stock dividend pursuant to Rule 416.
(3)
The number of shares to be registered has been computed on the basis of the Issuer's estimate of the aggregate number of shares which will be needed under
the RadioShack Corporation Unfunded Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors over the next 60 months.
(4)
Calculated based upon the average of the high and low sale prices as reported by the New York Stock Exchange and published in the Wall Street Journal as of a

dividend on each share of its common stock being registered. The rights initially are attached to and trade with shares of the Registrant's common stock being registered. Value attributable to these rights, if any, is reflected in the market

In addition, the Registrant incorporates by reference the descriptions of its common stock and preferred stock purchase rights, which are contained in
Registration Statement on Form 8-B, dated February 26, 1968, Registration Statement on Form 8-A, dated August 26, 1986, Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-A to Registration Statement on Form 8-A, dated July 11, 1988, Amendment No. 2 on Form 8-A to

Finally, the Registrant incorporates by reference in this prospectus all documents that it may file under Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or
15(d) of the Exchange Act after the date of this Prospectus and before the filing of a post-effective amendment (which indicates that all securities offered have been sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold). Those documents
are a part of this Prospectus from the date of their filing and later information the Registrant files with the Commission will automatically update and supersede this information.
Item 4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
The securities being registered
include obligations (the "Obligations") of the Registrant, under the Registrant's Unfunded Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors (the "Plan"), to pay to its directors retainer fees, meeting fees, as well as amounts due
(the "Retirement Amount") under a previously terminated director retirement plan, in the form of either cash or common stock that may be issued to participants in satisfaction of the Obligations.
Under the Plan, a director may elect to defer payment of all of his or her Retirement Amount and all or a portion of his or her directors
fees, including cash or common stock and dividends attributable thereto. The Registrant will maintain a memorandum cash account reflecting the deferred cash fees, and two memorandum stock accounts respectively reflecting the Retirement Amount and
fees payable in the form of common stock that have been deferred. Interest will accrue on the amounts in the cash account. The Registrant will credit directors with an amount equal to dividends attributable to the number of shares of
1
common stock credited to his or her stock accounts. It will either credit this amount to each such director's cash account, or pay this amount in cash to each such director. The Registrant
will also credit to a director's stock account an additional number of shares of common stock equal to twenty five percent of the shares of Common Stock initially credited to the stock account if a director defers payment of these shares for
three years or more from the date of the initial deferral.
Payment of deferred fees credited to a cash account
will be made in cash. Payment of the deferred Retirement Amount and fees credited to the stock accounts will be made in common stock. The deferred fees and Retirement Amount will be paid to the director either (i) in a lump sum on the date specified
by the director, (ii) in substantially equal annual installments, not to exceed ten, (iii) in a lump sum upon a Change in Control or threatened Change in Control (as defined in the Plan), or (iv) if no election is made, on 60 days following the date
director ceases to serve as a director.
If a director dies before deferred amounts credited to his or her cash
account or stock accounts have been distributed, the balance of any Retirement Amount, deferred fees, dividends and interest in the accounts will be paid promptly to the director's designated beneficiary in the manner designated by the
director, or if no method is selected, within 60 days after the director's death. If a director does not designate any beneficiaries or the beneficiaries have predeceased the director, the balance in the accounts will be paid to the
director's estate.
During the director's lifetime, the right to the Retirement Amount, deferred fees,
dividends, cash and interest in the Plan accounts may not be transferred, assigned, hypothecated or pledged to any person. Any such attempt to transfer, assign, hypothecate or pledge the accounts will be void.
The right of a director to receive payment of deferred amounts under the provisions of the Plan shall be an unsecured claim against the
general assets of the Registrant. The maintenance of individual director accounts is for bookkeeping purposes only. The Registrant is not obligated to acquire or set aside any particular assets for the discharge of its obligations, nor shall any
director have any property rights in any particular assets held by the Registrant, whether or not held for the purpose of meeting the Registrant's obligations hereunder. The Obligations will not have the benefit of a negative pledge or any
other affirmative or negative covenant on the part of the Registrant.
The Obligations are not subject to
redemption, although they could be redeemed in the case of termination of the Plan. The Registrant reserves the right to modify the Plan from time to time or terminate the Plan entirely, but no modification or termination of the Plan will operate to
annul a deferral election already in effect for the calendar year in which the modification occurs or any preceding calendar year.
Item
5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL
An opinion concerning the validity of the issuance of shares of common
stock and the validity and binding nature of the Obligations has been passed upon for the Registrant by Mark C. Hill, Senior Vice President, Corporate Secretary and General Counsel of the Registrant. Mr. Hill beneficially owns or has rights to
acquire under employee benefit plans, an aggregate of less than 1% of shares of Common Stock.
Item 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND
OFFICERS
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law grants corporations the power to indemnify directors
and officers in terms sufficiently broad to permit such indemnification under certain circumstances for liabilities (including reimbursement for expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
Act"). Article XIV of the Registrant's Bylaws, as amended and restated, provides for indemnification of its directors, officers, employees and other agents to the maximum extent permitted by Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation
Law.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted for directors,
officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law and the foregoing bylaw provision or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer
or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the
opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
The Registrant carries directors' and officers'
liability insurance policies under which all of the directors and executive officers of Registrant are insured against loss imposed upon them with respect to their legal liability for breach of their duty to Registrant. Excluded from coverage under
said policy are fines and penalties imposed by law upon such directors and officers or other matters which
2
may be deemed uninsurable such as material acts of active and deliberate dishonesty committed by the insureds with actual dishonest purpose and intent. In addition, the Registrant has entered
into indemnification agreements with its directors and certain officers for indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
