INTRODUCTION
 

This Amendment No. 2 to Rule 13E-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 (“Schedule 13E-3/A-2”) is being filed jointly by Central Freight Lines, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Central”), North American Truck Lines, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“Parent”), Green Acquisition Company, a Nevada corporation (“Purchaser”), Jerry Moyes (“Mr. Moyes”), Robert V. Fasso (“Mr. Fasso”), Gerald F. Ehrlich as trustee of the Moyes Children’s Trust, dated December 14, 1992 (the “Children’s Trust) and Jerry Moyes as trustee of the Jerry and Vickie Moyes Family Trust, dated December 11, 1987 (the “Family Trust” and with Mr. Moyes and the Children’s Trust, the “Affiliated Continuing Investors”), in connection with the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of January 30, 2006, by and among Central, Parent and Purchaser as amended by the First Amendment to Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of September 13, 2006, by and among Central, Parent and Purchaser (as amended, the “Merger Agreement”). Central, Mr. Fasso, Purchaser, Parent and the Affiliated Continuing Investors are referred to herein as the “Filing Persons.”  The Children’s Trust has been advised by Central and Mr. Moyes that the Children’s Trust may be required to join in this filing by reason of interpretations of the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the application of Rule 13e-3 to substantial stockholders continuing as stockholders in an issuer which is the subject of a Rule 13e-3 transaction, as that term is defined in Rule 13e-3. At the request of Central and Mr. Moyes, the Children’s Trust has consented to be included in this filing. However, the Children’s Trust expressly disclaims any Schedule 13E-3 filing obligation in connection with the Merger (as defined below) and expressly disavows that it is engaged in any Rule 13e-3 transaction. Specifically, the Children’s Trust is not, directly or indirectly, (i) purchasing any equity security of Central; (ii) making any tender offer or request or invitation for tenders of any equity security of Central; or (iii) soliciting any proxy, consent or authorization of any equity securityholder of Central with respect to the Merger. The Children’s Trust also expressly disclaims that it is an affiliate of, or acting together as part of a group in connection with the Merger with, any other Filing Person, and the Children’s Trust is not a proponent of the Merger or of approval ofthe Merger Agreement by the stockholders of Central.
 
If the Merger Agreement is approved by Central's stockholders, Purchaser will merge with and into Central, with Central continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”). Each issued and outstanding share of Central common stock held by the Affiliated Continuing Investors shall remain issued and outstanding shares of Central. In the Merger, each issued and outstanding share of Central common stock (other than shares held by the Affiliated Continuing Investors) will be converted into the right to receive the merger consideration of $2.25 per share in cash, without interest. Each issued and outstanding share of the Purchaser common stock shall be converted into the number of issued and outstanding shares of the surviving corporation equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the difference between (A) all of the issued and outstanding shares of Central common stock immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger and (B) the number of shares of Central common stock held by the Affiliated Continuing Investors by (ii) the number of issued and outstanding shares of the Purchaser common stock immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger. At the effective time of the Merger, each option to purchase Central common stock granted under any stock option plan established by Central for the benefit of its employees and outside directors and outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of the Merger, will become fully vested and exercisable at that time. Each holder of options to purchase Central common stock with an exercise price below $2.25 (other than options held by Mr. Moyes and Mr. Fasso) including each director and executive officer of Central (other than Mr. Fasso), will receive in cash the difference between the exercise price and $2.25 multiplied by the number of shares of common stock subject to that option in consideration for the cancellation of that option. Each holder of options with an exercise price equal to or greater than $2.25, including directors and executive officers of Central, will receive $0.01 multiplied by the number of shares subject to that option in consideration for the cancellation of that option. Mr. Moyes has agreed to the cancellation of his stock options for no payment; Mr. Fasso’s stock options will be amended pursuant to his amended stock option agreement. A copy of the Merger Agreement has been filed by Central as Annex A to the preliminary proxy statement of Central (as amended, the “Preliminary Proxy Statement”), which is filed as Exhibit (a)(i) to this Schedule 13E-3/A-2.

Concurrently with the filing of this Schedule 13E-3/A-2, Central is filing under Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Preliminary Proxy Statement, as amended, pursuant to the definitive version of which Central’s board of directors will be soliciting proxies from stockholders of Central in connection with the merger.
