                  by and among the Company, the Borrower, and the Lenders (the "Credit
                  Agreement").&#160;&#160;Borrowings under the Credit Agreement continue to
                  be classified as either "base rate loans" or "Eurodollar rate
                  loans".&#160;&#160;Base rate loans accrue interest at a base rate set
                  equal to the higher of the Federal Funds Rate plus &#189; of 1% or the Agent's
                  prime rate plus an applicable margin that is adjusted quarterly
                  between
                  0.000% and 1.000% based on a leverage ratio, which is generally
                  defined as
                  the ratio of borrowings, letters of credit, and the present value
                  of
                  operating lease obligations to our earnings before interest, income
                  taxes,
                  depreciation, amortization, and rental payments under operating
                  leases.&#160;&#160;Prior to Amendment No. 1, the applicable margin was
                  adjusted quarterly between 0.000% and 0.375% based on the leverage
                  ratio.
                  Eurodollar rate loans accrue interest at LIBOR plus an applicable
                  margin
                  that is adjusted quarterly between 0.875% and 2.250% based on the
                  leverage
                  ratio.&#160;&#160;Prior to Amendment No. 1, the applicable margin was
                  adjusted quarterly between 0.625% and 1.625% based on the leverage
                  ratio.
                  Had Amendment No. 1 been in effect at June 30, 2007, the applicable
                  margin
                  would have been 1.875%, whereas prior to the execution of Amendment
                  No. 1,
                  the applicable margin was 1.625% based on the calculated leverage
                  ratio.</font></div>

Item
                  1.01
Entry
                  into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On
                  August 28, 2007, Covenant Transportation Group, Inc., a Nevada
                  corporation
                  (formerly known as Covenant Transport, Inc. and herein referred
                  to as, the
                  "Company"), and Covenant Asset Management, Inc., a Nevada corporation
                  and
                  one of the Company's subsidiaries (the "Borrower"), entered into
                  Amendment
                  No. 1 to Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement ("Amendment
                  No. 1")
                  with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent (the "Agent")
                  and
                  SunTrust Bank, National City Bank, Branch Banking and Trust Company,
                  First
                  Tennessee Bank National Association, LaSalle Bank National Association,
                  Regions Bank, and Sovereign Bank (collectively, with the Agent,
                  the
                  "Lenders").
Amendment
                  No. 1 amends, among other things, certain (i) defined terms, (ii)
                  negative
                  covenants, and (iii) obligations related to the secured interest and
                  collateral, as contained in that certain Second Amended and Restated
                  Credit Agreement, dated December 21, 2006 that matures December
                  20, 2011,
                  by and among the Company, the Borrower, and the Lenders (the "Credit
                  Agreement").  Borrowings under the Credit Agreement continue to
                  be classified as either "base rate loans" or "Eurodollar rate
                  loans".  Base rate loans accrue interest at a base rate set
                  equal to the higher of the Federal Funds Rate plus ½ of 1% or the Agent's
                  prime rate plus an applicable margin that is adjusted quarterly
                  between
                  0.000% and 1.000% based on a leverage ratio, which is generally
                  defined as
                  the ratio of borrowings, letters of credit, and the present value
                  of
                  operating lease obligations to our earnings before interest, income
                  taxes,
                  depreciation, amortization, and rental payments under operating
                  leases.  Prior to Amendment No. 1, the applicable margin was
                  adjusted quarterly between 0.000% and 0.375% based on the leverage
                  ratio.
                  Eurodollar rate loans accrue interest at LIBOR plus an applicable
                  margin
                  that is adjusted quarterly between 0.875% and 2.250% based on the
                  leverage
                  ratio.  Prior to Amendment No. 1, the applicable margin was
                  adjusted quarterly between 0.625% and 1.625% based on the leverage
                  ratio.
                  Had Amendment No. 1 been in effect at June 30, 2007, the applicable
                  margin
                  would have been 1.875%, whereas prior to the execution of Amendment
                  No. 1,
                  the applicable margin was 1.625% based on the calculated leverage
                  ratio.
The
                  obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement continue
                  to be
                  guaranteed by the Company and all of the Company's wholly-owned
                  domestic
                  subsidiaries, except CVTI Receivables Corp., a Nevada corporation
                  (collectively, the "Guarantors"), and is secured by a pledge of
                  certain of
                  the Guarantors' assets.  In consideration for the Lenders
                  agreeing to enter into Amendment No. 1, the Lenders' security interest
                  was
                  expanded to include, with limited exceptions, the now owned and
                  hereafter
                  acquired revenue equipment of the Guarantors.
The
                  maximum borrowing limit under the Credit Agreement remains at the
                  lesser
                  of (i) $200.0 million or (ii) 90% of the net book value of
                  eligible revenue equipment less specified types of unsecured
                  indebtedness.  Letters of credit are still limited to an
                  aggregate commitment of $100.0 million and a swing line facility
                  still has
                  a limit of $10.0 million. A commitment fee, adjusted quarterly
                  between
                  0.175% and 0.500% per annum based on cash flow coverage, is due
                  on the
                  daily unused portion of the Credit Agreement. Prior to Amendment
                  No. 1,
                  the commitment fee was adjusted quarterly between 0.125% and
                  0.350%.
The
                  foregoing summary of the terms and conditions of Amendment No.
                  1 does not
                  purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference
                  to
                  the full text of Amendment No. 1, which will be filed with the
                  Company's
                  Form 10-Q for the quarter ending September 30,
                  2007.
