MaverickMessenger 1 challenge intensifying industry-wide with the implementation of ELDs, a national drug & alcohol clearinghouse database, and new driver training requirements on the horizon. Once again, Maverick is prepared for these changes. In addition to providing our drivers one of the best pay and benefit packages in the business, we have made substantial investments in training facilities and programs and are aggressively recruiting and training new entrants in the industry. We are extremely proud of our program and are committed to training safe, professional drivers. We are confident that our training aptitude gives us a competitive advantage over our peers. Maverick was also recently awarded "Top Pay Carrier" designation by The National Transportation Institute. Back to equilibrium. When the economy shifts, it will not take much improvement for the pendulum to swing back. In times like these, shippers have choices between building and strengthening relationships or playing the supply and demand market. Both are valid business strategies and we understand both. However, we value relationships and truly appreciate our customers that feel the same. We are committed to being there for you as the economy and supply and demand equation changes over time. As we've been discussing things that change, I want to conclude with something that will remain constant: our corporate culture, or what we refer to as "The Maverick Way". It is not just a slogan. It's who we are and how we roll, and I want to express my sincere gratitude and appreciation for Stephen's leadership and his living "The Maverick Way" for 32 years! We wish him the best. His retirement has brought change, but it also brings opportunity for many leaders at Maverick who are eager to write this next chapter of Maverick's history. Fortunately, our leadership team completely embraces our corporate culture and is very good at what they do. I am extremely excited for the future and all the change it brings! Look forward to working with you, • "Do the right thing" with integrity, respect and commitment • Be socially and environmentally responsible • Promote our unwavering emphasis on safety • Value our people • Strive for excellence in all we do • Have fun!
