Dear Steve:

On behalf of the Board of Directors of KLLM Transport
Services, Inc., I am pleased to offer you the position of
President and Chief Executive Officer.  Your background and
career accomplishments have clearly demonstrated your ability
to successfully lead our company.

This letter outlines the terms of our offer which is subject
to favorable results from:

      A complete physical examination at a medical facility of
      the company's choosing and at our expenses.

      Comprehensive reference checks to be conducted on your
      background and work experience/performance.

Your compensation package would include the following:

      Base salary:  $225,000 annually to be paid in equal
      installments monthly.

      Bonus opportunity: based on the company's new EVA plan,
      a copy of which you have received.  Your 1995 bonus under
      the plan will be guaranteed at a minimum of $50,000.

      Stock options:  150,000 shares to be vested 20 percent at
      your date of employment and in equal amounts of 20
      percent each year on your first, seconds, third and
      fourth anniversaries with the company.  These options
      will be priced at $15.00.  You will have 10 years from
      the date of employment to exercise these options.

      Relocation:  $75,000 to paid in a lump sum the day you
      begin employment.  This sum is to be used to cover your
      expenses related to moving, temporary living trips
      to/from Arkansas during the transition, house hunting
      trips, buying and selling costs for a home and other
      miscellaneous expenses related to your relocation.  This
      amount will be grossed up to eliminate any income tax
      burden to you in 1995.

      Separation agreement:  should KLLM deem it necessary to
      terminate your employment with the company at any time on
      or before January 1, 1997, you will be paid your annual
      base salary in 12 equal monthly installments following
      the date of your termination.  The company will be under
      no obligation to pay you any amount if you are terminated
      for cause.

      Other perquisites:  as provided by company policy for all
      KLLM executives.

Steve, I am truly excited about the future of KLLM and our
partnership together.  I believe this financial package
reflects our strong commitment to your success.  If this offer
of employment and the conditions under which it is made are
acceptable to you, please sign this letter in appropriate
space below and return it to me as soon as possible.

Other members of the Board and I are looking forward to
hosting you and Penny when you visit Jackson early next week.

Sincerely,
