Daimler
      Truck Financial $200 Million Secured Equipment Facility
On
      June 30, 2008, 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") (together with certain
      other subsidiaries of the Company), secured a $200,000,000 line of credit
      from Daimler Truck Financial (the "Daimler Financing").  The
      Daimler Financing is secured by both new and used tractors and is
      structured as a combination of retail installment contracts and TRAC
      leases.  Pricing for the Daimler Financing is at (i) the 60
      month Treasury Rate plus 1.97% annually on new equipment financed through
      retail installment contracts, and (ii) a rate of 6% annually on all used
      equipment financed.  Approximately $122,000,000 was funded under
      the Daimler Financing at June 30, 2008.
Amendment
      No. 2, Consent and Limited Waiver to Second Amended and Restated Credit
      Agreement
Contemporaneously
      with the funding of the Daimler Financing, the Company and the Borrower
      (together with certain other subsidiaries of the Company), entered into
      that certain Amendment No. 2, Consent and Limited Waiver to Second Amended
      and Restated Credit Agreement ("Amendment No. 2") 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, FSG Bank,
      N.A., and Sovereign Bank (collectively, with the Agent, the "Lenders"),
      which amends that certain Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement,
      dated December 21, 2006, by and among the Company, the Borrower, and the
      Lenders, as amended (the "Credit Agreement").
Amendment
      No. 2, among other things, (i) amends certain defined terms used in the
      Credit Agreement, (ii) authorizes the Daimler Financing and releases
      Agent's liens on any collateral securing the Daimler Financing, (iii)
      reduces the maximum borrowing limit from $190,000,000 to $81,000,000, (iv)
      limits the aggregate outstanding amount of revolving loans under the
      Credit Agreement to $30,000,000, (v) fixes the letter of credit sublimit
      under the Credit Agreement at the present level of $51,000,000 and grants
      the Agent a security interest in a cash collateral account of $50,500,000
      to secure outstanding standby letters of credit, and (vi) waives, for the
      period commencing June 30, 2008 and ending August 29, 2008, any default or
      event of default that may have otherwise occurred as a result of any
      failure by the Company's consolidated group of companies to comply with a
      leverage ratio contained in the Credit Agreement.  After giving
      effect to Amendment No. 2, borrowings under the Credit Agreement are
      subject to a borrowing base limit of (i) 85% of the net orderly
      liquidation value of any eligible revenue equipment as determined under an
      appraisal prepared by Taylor & Martin, Inc. (the "Taylor & Martin
      Appraisal"), plus (ii) 70% of the net book value of any eligible revenue
      equipment that is not valued in the Taylor & Martin Appraisal, plus
      (iii) the balance in the cash collateral account, less specified
      types of unsecured indebtedness, and letters of credit.
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, excluding certain revenue equipment of the
      Guarantors serving as collateral under the Daimler Financing.
The
      foregoing summary of the terms and conditions of Amendment No. 2 does not
      purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to
      the full text of Amendment No. 2, which will be filed with the Company's
      Form 10-Q for the quarter ending June 30,
2008.
Limited
      Waiver to Loan Agreement Relating to Accounts Receivable
      Securitization
On
      July 7, 2008, the Company and CVTI Receivables Corp., an indirect,
      wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into that certain Limited
      Waiver to Loan Agreement (the "Securitization Facility Waiver") with Three
      Pillars Funding LLC, and SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, Inc., the sole
      purpose of which was to waive any defaults that would have occurred under
      the Company's existing accounts receivable securitization facility because
      of a certain cross-default provision contained in the existing accounts
      receivable securitization facility.  That cross-default
      provision is triggered by the Company's default on any debt obligation in
      excess of $5 million, regardless of whether such default is
      waived.  Thus, a default under the Credit Agreement, although
      waived, necessitated a waiver under the Company's existing accounts
      receivable securitization facility.  The Securitization Facility
      Waiver is effective for the period commencing June 30, 2008 and ending
      August 29, 2008.
