CEVA LOGISTICS INCREASES PROPOSAL TO ACQUIRE
EGL, INC. FOR $1.95 BILLION IN CASH

EGL Shareholders to Receive $46 Per Share

     Amsterdam, May 14, 2007 -- CEVA Logistics, an Apollo Management VI, L.P. portfolio company, today announced that it has submitted an increased proposal to the Special Committee of the Board of Directors of EGL, Inc. (NASDAQ: EAGL) to acquire EGL for approximately $1.95 billion, or $46.00 per share, in cash. The offer represents a $3 per share increase over CEVA’s prior offer of $43 per share and was made based on discussions between CEVA and the Special Committee over the weekend.

     CEVA’s proposal is subject to a customary merger agreement, which has been submitted to the EGL Special Committee together with CEVA’s offer. The transaction would be subject to regulatory approvals and the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of EGL’s outstanding shares. The bid is fully financed pursuant to commitments from leading financial institutions. If accepted by the EGL board, CEVA anticipates that the transaction would close this summer.

     If the transaction is completed, CEVA intends to retain EGL’s headquarters in Houston and to use EGL’s operations as a complementary base to expand CEVA’s scale and product offerings globally.
