RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS

1.	*Covenant Not to Solicit Restricted Customers and Carriers.*

Agreement Not to Solicit. For a period of two (2) years following the Effective Time (the “Restricted Period”), you agree that you will not (nor will you assist any other person or entity to), for any reason, either directly or indirectly, call on, contact, solicit or otherwise take away or disrupt, or attempt to call on, contact, solicit or otherwise take away or disrupt, our relationship with or business expectancy from any customer or carrier of Parent or its affiliates (including the Company and its subsidiaries) (the “Parent Group”) (i) on whose account you worked or with whom you had regular contact, or (ii) as to whom you had access to Confidential Information (in either instance at any time within the one year prior to the Effective Time). This undertaking on your part for our benefit is called your “Non-Solicit Covenant.”

You Acknowledge the Legitimacy, Reasonableness and Fairness of Your Non-Solicit Covenant. You acknowledge that: (i) in the course of performing your duties as an employee who has had and/or will have direct contact with the customers or carriers the Parent Group and/or access to proprietary information about them, you have had access to, and have been regularly exposed to, and in some cases have generated and controlled, Confidential Information which is sensitive, and competitively valuable information about of the Parent Group; (ii) the Parent Group has developed its Confidential Information through considerable time, effort and expense; (iii) the relationships of the Parent Group with its customers, carriers, vendors, suppliers, business partners and employees, as well its Confidential Information, constitute valuable and legitimate protectable business interests of the Parent Group; (iv) your Non-Solicit Covenant is reasonable and necessary to protect those interests, the Confidential Information and goodwill of the Parent Group; and (v) your compliance with your Non-Solicit Covenant following termination of your employment will not prevent you from earning a livelihood in a business similar to the business of the Parent Group, but, in any event, your experience and capabilities are such that you now have and will have other opportunities to earn a livelihood and adequate means of support for yourself and your dependents.

For purposes of this Letter (including this Annex A), “Confidential Information” means all information, written (whether generated or stored on magnetic, digital, photographic or other media) or oral, not generally known, or proprietary to the Parent Group about the Parent Group’s businesses, affairs, operations, products, services, customer and carrier lists, pricing strategies, operating processes, business methods and procedures, information technology and information-gathering techniques and methods, business plans, financial affairs, and all other accumulated data, listings, or similar recorded matter useful in the businesses of the Parent Group, including by way of illustration and not limitation:

information about the business, affairs or operation of the Parent Group developed by you or which was furnished to you by any member of the Parent Group during your employment;

ii.

operating instructions, training manuals, procedures, and similar information;

iii.

information about customers, carriers, vendors and other with whom the Parent Group does business (e.g. customer, carrier or vendor lists, pricing, contracts, and activity records);

iv.

information about sales and marketing (e.g., plans and strategies);

information about any other third parties that the Parent Group has a business relationship with or owes a duty of confidentiality to; and

vi.

all notes, observations, data, analyses, compilations, forecasts, studies or other documents prepared by you that contain or reflect any Confidential Information and which is not known to the public generally other than as a result of your breach of this Letter (including this Annex A).

However, we expressly acknowledge and agree that the term “Confidential Information” excludes information which (A) is in the public domain or otherwise generally known to the trade, or (B) is disclosed

to third parties other than by reason of your breach of your confidentiality obligations under this Letter (including this Annex A), or (C) is learned of by you after the termination of your employment from any other party not then under an obligation of confidentiality to the Parent Group.

2.	*Covenant Not to Compete.*

Duration and Geographic Scope. For the Restricted Period, you are not allowed to compete with the Parent Group in the “Restricted Territory” (geographic area) fixed below. This undertaking on your part for our benefit is called your “Non-Compete Covenant.”

Your Non-Compete Covenant. You expressly agree that during the Restricted Period, you will not (either directly or indirectly through others) have any of the following business relationships anywhere within your Restricted Territory:

perform any services, whether as an employee, agent or independent contractor, which are the same as or reasonably related to the services you performed while employed by the Company or its affiliates during the two years prior to the Effective Time, for a “Competing Business” (defined below);

ii.

own any financial interest in a Competing Business (e.g., as a partner, member, principal, shareholder or other owner (other than a holder of less than 1% of the outstanding voting shares of any publicly held company)); or

iii.

loan money to, borrow money from, lease to, or have any other financial dealings with a Competing Business (except for ownership of less than 1% of the outstanding voting shares of any publicly held company).

Definition of a “Competing Business”. You and Parent agree that a “Competing Business” means any individual or business (e.g., a corporation, partnership or limited liability company) engaged in the business of the Parent Group as it is conducting it immediately following the Effective Time (including any business any member of the Parent Group is then actively considering or was considering at any time during the 12 month period ending immediately following the Effective Time), including by way of example:

any providers of transportation and transportation logistics services, including only by way of illustration, freight brokerage, freight forwarding, expediting, internet load boards, last-mile delivery logistics, truckload or less-than-truckload carriage, contract logistics or intermodal providers, or firms such as XX Xxxxxxxx, Expeditors International of Washington, Inc., Echo Global Logistics Inc., Total Quality Logistics, TransCore, DHL, FedEx Corporation, United Parcel Service, Inc., Old Dominion Freight Line, YRC Worldwide Inc., X.X. Xxxx Transport Services, Inc., Xxxxx + Xxxxx International AG, syncreon, Neovia Logistics and Hub Group Inc.; and

ii.

an individual or business that otherwise competes with the business of the Parent Group anywhere in the Restricted Territory.

Your Restricted Territory. You agree that your “Restricted Territory” means any state, province, territory or country (including, without limitation, the United States, Canada, Mexico, and/or the European Union) in which the Parent Group’s customers are located or any member of the Parent Group performs services for or on behalf of the Parent Group’s customers or carriers.

Certain Exceptions. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2 to the contrary, you and we hereby agree as follows:

The Non-Compete Covenant shall not restrict you from (i) being an employee of a company that ships goods or materials of any kind (such as, for purposes of illustration only, Procter & Xxxxxx or General Motors), including, but not limited to, companies that are engaged in manufacturing, assembly, retailing, e-commerce, oil and gas, chemicals and technology, among other things (any

A-2

such company, a “Shipper”), or (ii) performing any supply chain management and engineering services, including procurement of transportation, logistics, storage and cross-dock management services for a Shipper; provided, that, in each case, you may not be employed by any Shipper a material portion of the business of which is providing transportation and/or logistics services for third parties in exchange for compensation, including, in any event, the following companies: Amazon, XX Xxxxxxxxx and Google (or their affiliates). For the avoidance of doubt, you may provide as an agent or consultant any services for a Shipper that you are permitted to provide directly as an employee.

ii.

The Restricted Period shall be deemed to be 12 months with respect to any Competing Business that engages only in contract logistics, pure play transportation management services, warehousing and storage (including frozen and cold chain).

iii.

The Non-Compete Covenant shall not restrict you from engaging in the moving and storage of residential and household goods (as done by companies such as (but not limited to) Graebel Moving & Storage).

You Acknowledge the Legitimacy, Reasonableness and Fairness of Your Non-Compete Covenant. You acknowledge that: (i) in the course of performing your duties as an employee who has had and/or will have direct contact with the customers or carriers the Parent Group and/or access to proprietary information about them, you have had access to, and have been regularly exposed to, and in some cases have generated and controlled, Confidential Information which is sensitive, and competitively valuable information about of the Parent Group; (ii) your Non-Compete Covenant is essential to protect the business and goodwill of the Parent Group because, were you to enter into activities competitive with the business of the Parent Group, you would cause the Parent Group and/or its individual members substantial harm (and not only because of your post-employment activities, but because of the impact those activities might have on the Parent Group’s other employees and former employees); and (iii) although your compliance with your Non-Compete Covenant may prevent you from earning a livelihood in a business similar to the business of the Parent Group, your experience and capabilities are such that you now have and will have other opportunities to earn a livelihood and adequate means of support for yourself and your dependents.

Consequences of Your Breach of Your Non-Solicit and Non-Compete Covenants. We reserve the right to use any remedies available to us in law or in equity to enforce our rights under this Letter (including this Annex A), generally, and your Non-Compete Covenant, Non-Solicit Covenant and other covenants to us set forth in this Letter (including this Annex A), specifically. In addition to any other legal remedies we may be entitled to, you agree that if you breach your Non-Compete Covenant and/or Non-Solicit Covenant, you will be required, within ten business days following a final judicial determination that you have breached your Non-Compete Covenant and/or Non-Solicit Covenant, to return to us (i) the Shares, including any proceeds received in connection with the sale or disposition of the Shares, in each case, including any dividends and distributions that you received in respect of such Shares and net of any taxes paid by you in respect of such Shares, and (ii) the Cash Payment, net of any taxes paid by you on such payment. You further agree that if you violate your Non-Compete Covenant and/or your Non-Solicit Covenant, the Restricted Period shall be extended by a period of time equal to that period beginning when your activities constituting such violation commenced and ending when such violative activities terminated.

Severability. If any provision of this Letter (including this Annex A) or its application is held invalid, such invalidation shall not affect other provisions or applications hereof which can be given effect without the invalid provisions or applications, and so that this objective may be achieved, the provisions hereof are declared to be severable. In the event of a final, non-reviewable, non-appealable determination that any covenant of yours set forth in this Letter (including this Annex A) (whether in whole or in part) is void or constitutes an unreasonable restriction against you, such provision shall not be rendered void but shall be deemed to be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make such provision enforceable for the longest duration and the greatest scope as may constitute a reasonable restriction under the circumstances.

A-3

Interpretation. You agree that to the extent you become bound by a prior or subsequent written agreement with the Parent Group or any member thereof setting forth confidentiality, non-solicit, anti-hiring, non-compete and similar covenants in favor of the Parent Group or any member thereof, such prior or subsequent agreement shall be enforceable independent of this Letter (including this Annex A), and shall not be deemed to modify or supersede this Letter (including this Annex A) in any way, or to be modified or superseded by this Letter (including this Annex A) in any way. You and we acknowledge that it is our common and mutual intention that, notwithstanding the terms of any such prior or subsequent agreement, this Letter (including this Annex A) and each such prior or subsequent agreement shall be enforceable severally, and that you will be bound by and subject to the most restrictive and comprehensive restrictive covenants in any agreement with the Parent Group or any member thereof to which you are a party. You and we further expressly acknowledge and agree that there are no oral agreements between you and us pertaining to the subject matter hereof.

6.	*Survival.* The provisions of this Letter (including this Annex A) shall survive termination of your employment regardless of the reason.
