[Home Page Link] Fuel Surcharge

September 12, 2000

Re: Fuel Surcharge Percentages

Dear Valued Customer,

As I'm sure you are all aware, fuel prices are higher than most people thought they would be. Additionally, they are higher in California than any of our neighboring States. Because of our "Clean Air" fuel requirements, and the costs associated with them, we even have our own California Column in the DOE Fuel Cost Report. Taking all of this into consideration, we have adopted a revised Fuel Surcharge Percentage for our Company. Below is the current update to the chart. Hopefully, additional updates will not be needed.

DOE Posted Fuel Price Fuel Surcharge Percent
(California)  
1.25 - 1.34 1.80
1.35 - 1.39 2.10
1.40 - 1.44 2.40
1.45 - 1.49 2.70
1.50 - 1.54 3.00
1.55 - 1.60 3.30
1.61 - 1.65 3.60
1.66 - 1.70 3.90
1.71 - 1.75 4.20
1.76 - 1.80 4.50
1.81 - 1.85 4.80
1.86 - 1.90 5.10
1.91 - 1.95 5.40
1.96 - 2.00 5.70
2.01 - 2.05 6.00

Also, as prices continue to rise, we are forced to assess a Truckload Fuel Surcharge effective November 6, 2000. The Truckload Fuel Surcharge is 8% of your freight charges. Any accessorial charges such as handling and appointment charges will not be effected.

If you are interested in checking the weekly DOE Fuel Prices you may do so by logging onto our website at www.CalStateXpress.com and click on the fuel surcharge icon. Or, you can contact our customer service department at (562) 806-7333.

Thank you for your continued business and support. All of us at Cal State Xpress look forward to serving your California transportation needs.

Sincerely,
