OWNER/OPERATOR FAQ
What was announced?
Swift Transportation and Knight Transportation have entered an agreement to operate under common
ownership. The Swift holding company will be renamed Knight-Swift Transportation Holdings Inc., and the
common ownership structure will enable both companies to share best practices, while running the
businesses independently and maintaining separate brands. There is no immediate impact in how we do
business and we will continue working toward building our brand and realizing our vision.
Richard Stocking and Ginnie Henkels have chosen to pursue other opportunities following the close of the
transaction though will stay on until then to ensure a seamless transition. Once the transaction is
completed, which we expect to occur in the third quarter of 2017, the combined company will be led by
Dave Jackson as CEO and by Adam Miller as CFO, with. Kevin Knight serving as the Executive
Chairman. Knight’s Executive Chairman, Kevin Knight, will assume the role of President of Swift (which
will operate as a subsidiary of the combined company post-closing) and. Knight’s President and CEO,
Dave Jackson, will remain President of Knight (which will also operate as a subsidiary of the combined
company post-closing.

We anticipate the transaction will be complete in the third quarter of 2017.
