[YELLOW CORPORATION LETTERHEAD]
JULY 8, 1999
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
YELLOW CORPORATION COMPLETES TENDER OFFER
TO ACQUIRE JEVIC TRANSPORTATION, INC.
OVERLAND PARK, KAN. -- Yellow Corporation (NASDAQ: YELL) announced today that it
has successfully completed its previously announced cash tender offer to
purchase the outstanding shares of common stock of Jevic Transportation, Inc. at
a price of $14 per share.
The offer expired on Wednesday, July 7, 1999 as of 12 midnight (EDT). At that
time, based on a preliminary count from the depository for the offer, 10,553,167
shares of Jevic common stock were tendered, including 101,200 shares which were
tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures. All shares have been
accepted for payment.
Yellow now beneficially owns approximately 98.6 percent of the outstanding
shares of Jevic. Yellow and Jevic now expect to complete a merger in which Jevic
becomes a wholly owned subsidiary of Yellow Corporation. All remaining Jevic
shareholders have the right to receive $14 per share in cash, payable according
to terms of the tender offer.
The aggregate purchase price of the stock, including transaction costs, is
approximately $162.4 million. Including debt assumption, the total transaction
is approximately $200 million. The acquisition is being financed under the
company's existing credit facilities.
<PAGE> 2
Jevic is a fully integrated regional and inter-regional less-than-truckload
(LTL) and truckload carrier that combines the high-yield revenue characteristics
of LTL carriers with the operating flexibility and low fixed costs of truckload
carriers. Jevic is headquartered in Delanco, NJ.
Yellow Corporation is a holding company with operating subsidiaries specializing
in national, regional and international freight transportation services.
Headquartered in Overland Park, Kansas, Yellow now employs approximately 32,000
people, including the 2,300 Jevic employees.
Statements contained in this release that are not purely historical are
forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements regarding the company's
expectations, hopes, beliefs and intentions on strategies regarding the future.
It is important to note that the company's actual future results could differ
materially from those projected in such forward-looking statements because of a
number of factors, including but not limited to inflation, labor relations,
inclement weather, competitor pricing activity, Year 2000 computer issues,
expense volatility and a downturn in general economic activity.
