the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 7, 2005. It is anticipated that
Stoney Stubbs's compensation for 2005 will be comparable to that disclosed in
such proxy statement.
Russell
Stubbs is also the brother of Mr. Timothy L. Stubbs ("Tim Stubbs"), who is an
employee of the Company with a base salary of less than $60,000 per year and who
participates in various bonus and incentive plans of the Company.
Stoney
Stubbs is the managing partner and has beneficial ownership of 1.3% in a family
partnership for which the partners consist of his spouse, children and
grandchildren. Russell Stubbs is a general partner and, together with his
children, has beneficial ownership of 42% of such family partnership. Tim Stubbs
is a partner and has beneficial ownership of approximately 17% of such family
partnership. Transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries and the
family partnership and Stoney Stubbs in 2004 have been described in the
Company's proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
April 7, 2005.
Along
with other transactions described in the Company's proxy statement, Stoney
Stubbs and the family partnership lease tractors to a subsidiary of the Company.
Because the terms of the leases are more flexible than those involving
unaffiliated lessors, the subsidiary pays on average an 8.5% rental premium for
tractors. From January 1, 2005 until November 9, 2005, the subsidiary has made
tractor rental payments as follows: Stoney Stubbs - $82,000 and the family
partnership - $1,088,000
, each
in the
aggregate. The subsidiary has an option to purchase the tractors at the end of
the lease term. None of the tractor leases expire in 2005.
The
aggregate future minimum rentals under the tractor non-cancelable operating
leases at December 31, 2005 are:

Russell
Stubbs is also the beneficial owner of an approximately 31% interest in an
equipment company in which Tim Stubbs and other family members own the remaining
interests. For more than ten years, the subsidiary has rented trailers from such
equipment company and the family partnership on a month-to-month basis. From
January 1, 2005 until November 9, 2005, the subsidiary has made trailer rental
payments as follows: the equipment company - $107,000 and the family partnership
- $208,000, each in the aggregate. The subsidiary pays up to a 50% rental
premium for the trailers as compared to some unaffiliated month-to-month
lessors.
The
Company's Audit Committee has approved all tractor and trailer transactions
between the subsidiary, the family partnership, the equipment company and Stoney
Stubbs.
The
Company, the equipment company and the family partnership have agreed, should
the month-to-month leases be terminated within twelve months following a change
in control, that the Company is required to pay to the lessors a lump sum
payment in cash equal to 24 times the most recent monthly rental.
Additionally,
the Company provides or arranges for tax, accounting, equipment registration and
legal services for Stoney Stubbs, the family partnership and the equipment
company, which have not exceeded $60,000 in the aggregate in the last two fiscal
years.
