Numerous important factors, including those factors identified as in Yellow’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and other of the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the fact that the assumptions set forth in this Current Report on Form 8-K could prove incorrect, could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in such forward-looking statements.

The information furnished pursuant to Item 9 in this Current Report shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1933, as amended. The furnishing of the information in Item 9 of this Current Report is not intended to, and does not, constitute a representation that such furnishing is required by Regulation FD or that the information Item 9 of this Current Report contains is material investor information that is not otherwise publicly available.
