Write a script /root/sbin/mysql-shutdown.sh with whatever you need in 
it, & call that script from /etc/rc.shutdown

Only root can read it.

Or:

/usr/local/site/sbin/mysql-shutdown.sh

chmod it 0770, and chown it root:dba so that anyone in the dba group can 
edit (passwd changes) and run the script.
