      Program and consistent with the objectives of the Plan, certain employees,
      including the Company&#8217;s named executive officers, may receive bonuses upon
      satisfaction of the Performance Targets established for 2007. Bonuses awarded
      pursuant to the Program will be determined by a formula established by the
      Committee that is tied to achievement of one or both of the Performance Targets.
      The formula established by the Committee utilizes incremental levels of
      achievement of the Performance Targets, subject to upward or downward adjustment
      in defined circumstances. The applicable percentage of the Performance Target
      that is achieved is then multiplied by the employee&#8217;s target bonus to determine
      the employee&#8217;s bonus. </font></div>

                Officers
On
        February 28, 2007, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the
        "Committee") of Covenant Transport, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Company"),
        approved the key terms of the Company's 2007 Bonus Program (the "Program"),
        which was approved under the Company's 2006 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "Plan").
        As set forth in the Plan, which was approved by the Company's stockholders at
        the 2006 annual meeting of stockholders, the Committee may choose from a
        range
        of defined performance measures. The Committee approved operating income
        and
        operating ratio targets (the "Performance Targets") as the basis for bonuses to
        be paid pursuant to the Program for each of the following service offerings
        (or
        combination of service offerings) and subsidiaries (each, a "Business Unit") and
        on a consolidated basis: Expedited, Dedicated, Covenant Regional/Over the
        Road,
        the total Covenant division (prior three service offerings), Southern
        Refrigerated Transport, Inc., Star Transportation, Inc., and Covenant Transport
        Solutions, Inc. The Performance Targets are generally consistent with the
        Company's goal to improve its consolidated operating ratio by 100 to 200 basis
        points in 2007 versus 2006, although the Performance Targets for some Business
        Units require significantly greater improvement and the Performance Targets
        for
        some Business Units allow for a decrease in performance versus
        2006.
Under
      the
      Program and consistent with the objectives of the Plan, certain employees,
      including the Company's named executive officers, may receive bonuses upon
      satisfaction of the Performance Targets established for 2007. Bonuses awarded
      pursuant to the Program will be determined by a formula established by the
      Committee that is tied to achievement of one or both of the Performance Targets.
      The formula established by the Committee utilizes incremental levels of
      achievement of the Performance Targets, subject to upward or downward adjustment
      in defined circumstances. The applicable percentage of the Performance Target
      that is achieved is then multiplied by the employee's target bonus to determine
      the employee's bonus.
The
      following chart highlights the method by which the bonus payments to the
      Company's named executive officers would be calculated should the Company meet
      100% of the Performance Targets for 2007:

Bonuses payable for 2007 (if any) will vary depending
              on
              the extent to which actual performance
meets,
              exceeds, or falls short of the Performance Targets. Bonuses payable
              for
              the named executive officers can range from 15% to 130% of the employee's
              target bonus.

Performance
                Targets are tied to the achievement of operating income and operating
                ratio goals. Performance Targets for senior executive officers and
                most
                other participants with corporate-wide responsibility are tied to
                operating income and operating ratio goals calculated on a consolidated
                basis. Performance Targets for Business Unit managers and other
                participants dedicated primarily to a single Business Unit are tied
                to
                operating income and operating ratio goals for the Business Unit.
