DEREGISTRATION OF UNSOLD SECURITIES
Pursuant to Registration Statement No. 333-85807 on Form S-8 (the
"Registration Statement"), Circle International Group, Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("Circle"), registered 125,000 shares of its common stock, par value
$1.00 per share ("Circle Common Stock"), to be offered under the Circle
International Group, Inc. 1999 Stock Option Plan.
On July 2, 2000, EGL, Inc., a Texas corporation ("EGL"), EGL Delaware
I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of EGL ("Merger
Sub"), and Circle entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger
Agreement") providing for the merger (the "Merger") of Merger Sub with and into
Circle, with Circle surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of EGL. The Merger
became effective upon the filing of a Certificate of Merger with the Secretary
of State of the State of Delaware on October 2, 2000 (the "Effective Time").
Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each outstanding share of Circle Common
Stock was converted at the Effective Time into the right to receive one share of
EGL common stock. As a result of the Merger, Circle terminated at the Effective
Time all offerings of Circle Common Stock under its existing registration
statements, including the Registration Statement.
In accordance with an undertaking made by Circle in the Registration
Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment,
any of the securities which remain unsold at the termination of the offering,
Circle hereby removes from registration all shares of Circle Common Stock
registered under the Registration Statement which remained unsold as of the
Effective Time.
