     Sheldon Frankel has been a director of Intertrans since December 1980. From
1966 to the present time, Mr. Frankel has been a certified public accountant
with the accounting firm of Fox, Byrd, Golden & Frankel (and its predecessors),
Dallas, Texas, which accounting firm provides certain accounting services to
Intertrans.
 
     Cesareo Llano has been a director of Intertrans since March 1992, with

President of the Florida Customs Brokers & Forwarders Association, Director of
the International Air Freight Forwarders Association and a member of the
Advisory Board of the National Customs Brokers & Forwarders Association.
 
     David R. Pulk has served as Senior Vice President of Intertrans since
February 1987. From December 1983 to February 1987, Mr. Pulk served as Vice
President of Intertrans. From August 1981 to December 1983, Mr. Pulk was a Vice
President of Air Express International, Inc. and was responsible for development
of new services and marketing. From June 1970 to August 1981, Mr. Pulk was

     John R. Witt, Chief Financial Officer, joined Intertrans in March 1992.

Chief Financial Officer of Mr. Gatti, Inc., a 300-unit restaurant chain. From

Dallas, Texas based real estate and venture capital investment firm. Prior to
1983, Mr. Witt was a manager with the accounting firm of KPMG Peat Marwick LLP.
 
COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(a) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934
 
     Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires Intertrans'
directors and executive officers, and persons who beneficially own more than
10% of a registered class of Intertrans' equity securities to file reports of
ownership and changes on Forms 3, 4 and 5 (and amendments thereto) with the
SEC and the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Directors,
executive officers and greater than 10% shareholders are required by Securities
and Exchange Commission regulation to furnish Intertrans with copies of all
filed Forms 3, 4 and 5.

     Based solely on Intertrans' review of the copies of such forms received
and representations that no other reports were required, Intertrans believes
that all of its directors, executive officers and greater than 10%      
shareholders complied with all filing requirements applicable to them with
respect to transactions during fiscal 1994, except that Brent R. Burns
inadvertently failed to file one Form 4 reporting a gift in a timely manner and
Sheldon Frankel, W. Ted Minick, Charles F. Schroeder III and John R. Witt each
inadvertently failed to file one Form 5.

(1) The stock options granted to Mr. Witt vest over a three (3) year period in
    equal amounts beginning one (1) year after the date of grant and have a term
    equal to ten (10) years from the date of grant. The exercise price of the
    options granted to Mr. Witt was equal to the fair market value of the
    Intertrans Common Stock on the date of grant.
 
(2) The amounts set forth under "Potential Realized Value at Assumed Annual
    Rates of Stock Price Appreciation for Option Term" reflect required
    disclosures pursuant to regulations of the SEC. The actual value realized,
    if any, could be more or less than the assumed values depending upon the
    performance of the stock. The values disclosed are not intended to be, and
    should not be interpreted by investors as, representations or projections of
    future value or price of the Intertrans Common Stock. APB Opinion No. 25
    states that no compensation is received by an employee upon grant of a stock
    option where the option price is equal to or higher than the quoted market
    price on the date of grant. Accordingly, Intertrans has recorded no
    compensation expense related to the grant of such stock options.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS
 
        In accordance with the terms of the Intertrans Corporation 1992
Nonqualified Stock Option Plan adopted by the Board of Directors on December 11,
1992, and approved by the shareholders on March 30, 1993, directors of
Intertrans who are not employed by Intertrans (or any affiliate of Intertrans)
are eligible to receive nonqualified stock options to purchase shares of        
Intertrans Common Stock based on the number of meetings attended during the
year, up to a maximum of 6,000 shares per year. The exercise price of any
options granted to nonemployee directors may not be less than the fair market
value of the Intertrans Common Stock on the date of grant of the option.
 
     Intertrans reimburses all directors for their expenses incurred in
attending meetings as well as other expenses incurred in connection with their
service as directors of Intertrans.

STOCK OPTION PLANS
 
     In December 1983, Intertrans adopted the 1983 Incentive Stock Option Plan
(the "1983 ISO Plan"), pursuant to which 693,000 shares of Intertrans Common
Stock have been reserved for issuance. In September 1984, Intertrans adopted the
1984 Incentive Stock Option Plan (the "1984 ISO Plan"), pursuant to which
750,000 shares of Intertrans Common Stock have been reserved for issuance. In
December 1987, Intertrans adopted the 1987 Flexible Stock Option Plan (the
"1987 Flexible Plan"), pursuant to which 750,000 shares of Intertrans Common
Stock have been reserved for issuance. In January 1990, Intertrans adopted the
1990 Incentive Stock Option Plan (the "1990 ISO Plan"), pursuant to which
1,500,000 shares of Intertrans Common Stock have been reserved for issuance. In
December 1992, Intertrans adopted the 1992 Nonqualified Stock Option Plan (the
"1992 Plan"), pursuant to which 1,200,000 shares of Intertrans Common Stock
have been reserved for issuance. The 1983 ISO Plan, the 1984 ISO Plan and the
1990 ISO Plan are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "ISO Plans." The
ISO Plans, the 1987 Flexible Plan and the 1992 Plan are hereinafter
collectively referred to as the "Intertrans Stock Option Plans." The shares of
Intertrans Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Intertrans Stock Option
Plans have been proportionately adjusted, as necessary, to reflect the
three-for-two share dividend effected February 17, 1987, and the two-for-one
share dividend effected June 7, 1993. The options granted under the ISO Plans
are intended to qualify as "incentive stock options" within the meaning of
Section 422A of the Code. The 1987 Flexible Plan provides for the issuance of
both incentive stock options and nonstatutory stock options. The 1992 Plan
provides for the issuance of nonstatutory stock options.
 
     Incentive stock options may be granted under the ISO Plans and the 1987
Flexible Plan to key employees of Intertrans, including officers and directors
who are employees of Intertrans. Stock options may be granted under the 1992
Plan to directors who are not employees and to officers of Intertrans. Under the
1992 Plan, nonemployee directors receive an option to purchase 6,000 shares of
Intertrans Common Stock each year on November 1, subject to reduction to the
extent such director was unable to attend scheduled director meetings.
 
     The ISO Plans, the 1987 Flexible Plan and the 1992 Plan may be administered
by the Board of Directors, a majority of whom are disinterested persons, or a
committee appointed by the Board of Directors composed of no less than three
directors who are disinterested persons. A committee comprised of Sheldon
Frankel and W. Ted Minick currently administers the ISO Plans, the 1987 Flexible
Plan and the 1992 Plan. The Board of Directors or the committee administering
the plans designates the optionees, the date of grants and the exercise prices.
 
     The exercise price of any incentive stock options granted may not be less
than the fair market value of the Intertrans Common Stock on the date of grant
of the option. The exercise price of any nonstatutory stock option granted to
nonemployee directors under the 1992 Plan may not be less than the fair market
value of the Intertrans Common Stock on the date of grant of the option. The
exercise price of any nonstatutory stock options granted under the 1987 Flexible
Plan and the 1992 Plan (except with respect to nonemployee directors) shall be
determined from time to time in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors or
the committee administering such plan. Under the ISO Plans, options may not be
granted to any person who owns shares representing in excess of 10% of the total
combined voting power of all classes of stock of Intertrans on the date of grant
of the options. With respect to the 1987 Flexible Plan, no options may be
granted to any person who owns shares representing in excess of 5% of the total
combined voting power of all classes of stock of Intertrans as of the date of
grant of the options.
 
     Options granted under ISO Plans become exercisable with respect to
one-third of the shares subject to such options on the date one year subsequent
to the date of grant of such options. Thereafter, options become exercisable
with respect to an additional one-third of such shares on each of the dates two
years and three years, respectively, following the date of grant of such
options. Options granted under the ISO Plans remain exercisable until exercise
or termination. All options granted pursuant to the 1983 ISO Plan and the 1984
ISO Plan terminate on the eighth anniversary of the date of grant and options
granted pursuant to the 1990 ISO Plan terminate on the tenth anniversary of the
date of grant.
 
     Options granted under the 1987 Flexible Plan become fully exercisable
beginning on the second anniversary date of the date upon which such options are
granted. Options granted under the 1987 Flexible Plan remain exercisable until
exercise or termination. All options granted under the 1987 Flexible Plan
terminate on the tenth anniversary of the date of grant.
 
     Options granted under the 1992 Plan to nonemployee directors become
exercisable immediately on grant. Except in the case of termination or a change
in control, options granted to officers under the 1992 Plan


                                      5
<PAGE>   8

 
become exercisable as set forth in the option agreement entered into with each
option recipient. In the event of a termination or change in control of
Intertrans, a holder of an option will be entitled to (a) all or a portion of
the full number of shares not previously exercised, without regard to the period
of exercisability, or (b) retain the option or accept in substitution for a new
option covering the appropriate number of shares of the successor corporation or
entity to the extent the holder of such option has elected not to exercise the
option. All options granted under the 1992 Plan terminate on the tenth
anniversary of the date of grant or, with respect to options granted to
officers, such earlier date as the committee administering such options may
determine.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
 
     The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors has furnished the
following report on executive compensation:
 
          Intertrans has continued its policy of structuring executive officer
     compensation to provide competitive annual base salaries and benefits,
     supplemented with incentives in the form of awards of stock options and, to
     a lesser extent, cash bonuses. As previously reported, the emphasis on
     stock options as a reward for performance and as an incentive for future
     performance, in preference to cash bonuses and other immediate compensatory
     benefits, tends to align the interests of the executives and Intertrans'
     shareholders, an important goal of Intertrans' compensation strategy. Such
     a strategy provides executive officers with a "personal stake" in the
     financial and operating performance of Intertrans, and they are thus
     encouraged to enhance productivity and efficiencies in their respective
     areas of responsibility. Further, grants of stock options which are not
     immediately exercisable in full, but which become exercisable over time
     (typically three years), encourage executives to remain with Intertrans and
     to associate their personal financial well being with the financial and
     operating performance of Intertrans. The Committee considers the total
     compensation (earned or potentially available) of each executive officer in
     establishing each element of compensation.
 
          In 1992, the Compensation Committee negotiated and structured
     multi-year compensation arrangements with Carsten S. Andersen, the
     President of Intertrans, and (acting without the participation of Mr.
     Wilson) Sam N. Wilson, the Chief Executive Officer of Intertrans. Messrs.
     Andersen and Wilson remain subject to the employment agreements negotiated
     in 1992, and their compensation has remained unchanged.
 
          In the early part of each fiscal year, the Committee reviews and
     approves, with any modifications it deems appropriate, an annual salary
     plan for Intertrans' senior executives, including the Chief Executive
     Officer. The salary plan is developed under the direction of the Chief
     Executive Officer based on performance judgments as to past and expected
     future contributions of the individual executives. In addition, the
     Committee considers information on compensation paid by competitors, to the
     extent available. Although the Chief Executive Officer's compensation is
     currently set in a three-year employment contract, it remains the
     Committee's responsibility (acting without the participation of Mr. Wilson)
     to review and fix the base salary of the Chief Executive Officer based upon
     competitive compensation data and the Committee's assessment of his
     performance and its expectation as to his future contributions in leading
     Intertrans. Inasmuch as stock options are a significant component of the
     Chief Executive Officer's compensation arrangement, no adjustment was made
     in 1994.

          All senior executives participate in Intertrans' stock option plans,
     under which granted options typically vest over three years. Intertrans has
     employed stock options as a means to reward and provide incentives for key
     employees since 1983. Intertrans believes the stock options are a highly
     effective means of compensating and motivating employees, as evidenced by
     Intertrans' historically strong financial and operating performance. During
     fiscal 1994, stock option committees comprised of disinterested directors
     considered stock option grants to various key employees and approved grants
     of options to a number of employees. No additional options were granted to
     the Chief Executive Officer or the President.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

 
CERTAIN EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS AND RELATED ARRANGEMENTS
 
     Chief Executive Officer -- Services Agreement and Option
Arrangements. Effective on August 7, 1992, Intertrans entered into a Services
Agreement with Sam N. Wilson pursuant to which Mr. Wilson has agreed to serve as
Chief Executive Officer for a three-year period, subject to a two-year extension
if deemed appropriate by Mr. Wilson and Intertrans. The Services Agreement also
calls for Mr. Wilson to provide consulting services to Intertrans for a ten-year
period following the termination of his employment as Chief Executive Officer.
 
     As compensation for his services as Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Wilson
will receive $200,000 per annum in salary, plus benefits and incentives. Among
the benefits accorded to Mr. Wilson is an option to purchase 250,000 shares of
Intertrans Common Stock (now 500,000 shares as a result of the two-for-one share
dividend which was issued to all holders of record of Intertrans Common Stock as
of June 21, 1993) under a Nonqualified Stock Option Agreement. These option
shares have an exercise price equal to the fair market value on the date of
grant and vest over a three-year period in equal amounts beginning one year
after the August 7, 1992, date of grant. The vesting of these options will
accelerate in the event of a change in control of Intertrans at which time all
unexercised options become immediately exercisable. If Mr. Wilson's employment
terminates by reason of his death, disability or resignation without Good Reason
(as defined below), or if Intertrans terminates his employment for cause,
Mr.Wilson (or his estate) will be entitled to receive any unpaid salary through
the date of termination and exercise any stock options which are exercisable on
the date of termination. In addition, if Mr. Wilson's employment terminates by
reason of death, his estate or beneficiary will be entitled to receive a lump
sum from Intertrans (discussed below). If Mr. Wilson terminates his employment
for Good Reason, he will be entitled to receive unpaid salary through the date
of termination, plus a severance amount equal to the sum of the aggregate annual
salary for each year or portion thereof which he would have received had his
employment not been terminated. In addition, Mr. Wilson will be entitled to
exercise any stock options which are exercisable on the date of termination.
"Good Reason" will be considered to exist with respect to any termination if
there has been a material nonconsensual reduction in Mr. Wilson's duties and
responsibilities, any reduction in Mr. Wilson's salary or other benefits or the
occurrence of a change in control of Intertrans.
 
     Following his tenure as Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Wilson has agreed to
provide consulting services to Intertrans for a ten-year period for $200,000 per
annum. The consulting arrangement with Mr. Wilson will not come into effect,
however, if Mr. Wilson's employment as Chief Executive Officer is terminated by
Intertrans for cause or by Mr. Wilson without Good Reason. If Intertrans
terminates Mr. Wilson's consulting services or Mr. Wilson voluntarily resigns
following a change in control of Intertrans, Mr. Wilson will be entitled to
receive unpaid compensation through the date of termination, plus a severance
amount equal to the sum of the aggregate annual compensation for each year or
portion thereof which he would have received had his consulting services not
been terminated. In addition, Mr. Wilson will be entitled to exercise any stock
options which are exercisable on the date of termination. If Mr. Wilson's
consulting services are terminated by reason of his death, his estate will be
entitled to receive any unpaid compensation for services rendered through the
date of termination and exercise any stock options which are exercisable on the
date of termination. In addition, Mr. Wilson's estate or beneficiary will be
entitled to receive a lump sum payment of $2,000,000, less

the sum of all compensation actually paid to Mr. Wilson for his consulting
services. This obligation is fully insured by key man life insurance policies
maintained by Intertrans.
 
     President -- Employment Agreement and Option Agreement. Effective on August
1, 1992, Intertrans entered into an Employment Agreement with Carsten S.
Andersen in which Mr. Andersen has agreed to serve as President for a five-year
period for a salary of $200,000 per annum, plus benefits and incentives. Among
the benefits accorded to Mr. Andersen is an option to purchase 150,000 shares of
Intertrans Common Stock (now 300,000 shares as a result of the two-for-one share
dividend which was issued to all holders of record of Intertrans Common Stock as
of June 7, 1993) under a Nonqualified Stock Option Agreement pursuant to the
1992 Plan. These option shares have an exercise price equal to the fair market
value on the date of grant and vest over a three-year period in equal amounts
beginning one year after the August 1, 1992, date of grant. The vesting of these
options will accelerate in the event of a change in control of Intertrans at
which time all unexercised options become immediately exercisable. For a
two-year period following the expiration of the Employment Agreement, Mr.
Andersen may be entitled to receive payments totalling $200,000 per annum in
respect of an agreement not to compete with Intertrans in certain geographical
areas during that period. However, the noncompetition covenant and the
obligation to pay amounts to Mr. Andersen in respect thereof may be waived by
Intertrans. If Intertrans terminates Mr. Andersen's employment for cause or Mr.
Andersen voluntarily terminates his employment, Mr. Andersen will be entitled to
receive unpaid salary through the date of termination and exercise any stock
options which are exercisable on the date of termination. In addition, for a
two-year period following termination, Mr. Andersen may be entitled to receive
payments totalling $100,000 per annum in respect of an agreement not to compete
with Intertrans in certain geographical areas during that period. Again, the
noncompetition covenant and the obligation to pay amounts to Mr. Andersen in
respect thereof may be waived by Intertrans. If Mr. Andersen's employment is
terminated without cause, Mr. Andersen will be entitled to receive unpaid salary
through the date of termination, plus a severance amount equal to the sum of the
aggregate annual salary for each year or portion thereof which he would have
received had his employment not been terminated. In addition, Mr. Andersen will
be entitled to exercise any options which are exercisable on the date of
termination and may be entitled to receive payments of $16,667 per month for
each full month after August 1, 1997, up to a possible 24 months, during which
he is precluded from competing with Intertrans. The noncompetition covenant and
the obligation to pay amounts to Mr. Andersen in respect thereof may be waived
by Intertrans. If Mr. Andersen's employment terminates by reason of death or
disability, Mr. Andersen (or his estate) will be entitled to receive unpaid
salary through the date of termination and exercise any stock options which are
exercisable on the date of termination.
