ITEM 8. CHANGE IN FISCAL YEAR.
On July 2, 2000, the Board of Directors of EGL, Inc., a Texas
corporation ("EGL"), determined to change its fiscal year from a year ending on
September 30th to a year ending on December 31st. The decision to change EGL's
fiscal year was made to facilitate (1) investment community comparisons with
peer companies, and (2) EGL's reporting requirements arising after the
completion of the proposed merger of Circle International Group, Inc., a
Delaware corporation with a fiscal year ending on December 31st, and EGL
Delaware I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and newly formed, wholly owned
subsidiary of EGL.
EGL's 2000 fiscal year will end on December 31, 2000. Not more than
45 days after July 2, 2000, EGL will file with the Securities and Exchange
Commission a Report on Form 10-Q covering the three-month transition period from
October 1, 1999 to December 31, 1999.
