PROXY STATEMENT
Annual Meeting of Shareholders
June 2, 1995
This statement is being furnished on or about April 28,
1995, in connection with the solicitation by the Board of
Directors of Intrenet, Inc. (the "Company") of proxies to be
voted at the annual meeting of shareholders to be held at
11:00 a.m., New York City time, on Friday, June 2, 1995, at
270 Park Avenue, Third Floor Auditorium, New York, New York,
for the purposes set forth in the accompanying Notice.
At the close of business on March 31, 1995, the record date
for the meeting, there were 13,162,178 shares of common stock,
without par value, of the Company ("Common Stock") outstanding
and entitled to vote at the meeting. On all matters,
including the election of directors, each shareholder will
have one vote for each share held.
If the enclosed form of proxy is executed and returned, it
may nevertheless be revoked at any time before it is voted.
If a shareholder executes more than one proxy, the proxy
having the latest date will revoke any earlier proxies.
Attendance in person at the meeting by a shareholder will
constitute revocation of a proxy, and the shareholder may vote
in person.
Unless revoked, a proxy will be voted at the meeting in
accordance with the instructions of the shareholder in the
proxy, or, if no instructions are given, for the election as
directors of all nominees listed under Proposal 1 and for the
proposals shown as Proposal 2 and Proposal 3. Assuming a
quorum is present at the meeting, directors will be elected by
a plurality of the votes cast by the shares entitled to vote
in the election at the meeting. Approval of Proposal 2 and
Proposal 3 is subject to the vote of a greater number of
shares favoring the proposal than opposing it, assuming a
quorum is present. A proxy may indicate that all or a portion
of the shares represented by such proxy are not being voted
with respect to a specific proposal. This could occur, for
example, when a broker is not permitted to vote shares held in
street name on certain proposals in the absence of
instructions from the beneficial owner. Shares that are not
voted with respect to a specific proposal will be considered
as not present and entitled to vote on such proposal, even
though such shares will be considered present for purposes of
determining a quorum and voting on other proposals.
Abstentions on a specific proposal will be considered as
present, but not as voting in favor of such proposal. Because
none of the proposals to be considered at the meeting requires
the affirmative vote of a specified number of outstanding
shares (they require only a plurality or a majority of the
shares voted), neither the non-voting of shares nor
abstentions on a specific proposal will affect the
determination of whether such proposal will be approved.
The Board of Directors knows of no matters, other than those
reported below, which are to be brought before the meeting.
However, if other matters properly come before the meeting, it
is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed form of
proxy to vote such proxy in accordance with their judgment on
such matters.
The cost of this solicitation of proxies will be borne by
the Company.
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
Nominees
Nine directors are to be elected at the meeting, each to
hold office for a term of one year and until his or her
successor is elected and has qualified. It is the intention
of the persons named in the accompanying form of proxy to vote
such proxy for the election to the Board of Directors of the
persons identified below, each of whom is now a director. The
Board of Directors has no reason to believe that any of the
nominees will be unable to serve if elected. If, for any
reason, one or more of such persons is unable to serve, it is
the intention of the persons named in the accompanying form of
proxy to nominate such other person(s) as director as they may
in their discretion determine, in which event the shares will
be voted for such other person(s).
The names, ages and principal occupations of the nominees
and other directorships held by them are set forth below.
Unless otherwise indicated in the following table, the
principal occupation of each nominee has been the same for the

Meetings and Committees
During 1994, the Board of Directors of the Company held four
meetings. The Board of Directors had an Audit Committee, a
Compensation Committee and an Incentive Compensation Committee
during 1994. The Audit Committee, which currently consists of
Ms. Reade, Mr. Noonan and Mr. Montero recommends the
appointment of the Company's auditors and meets with the
auditors to discuss accounting matters and internal controls.
The Audit Committee met once during 1994. The Compensation
Committee, which currently consists of Messrs. Morgens, Baker,
Ades and Jackson, sets and reviews the compensation of
executive officers. The Compensation Committee met once
during 1994. The Incentive Compensation Committee was
appointed to administer the Company's 1994 Stock Option and
Incentive Plan. The members of the Incentive Compensation
Committee are Messrs. Morgens, Ades and Jackson. The
Incentive Compensation Committee met once in 1994.
In February 1994, the Board of Directors appointed a
Nominating Committee consisting of Messrs. Morgens, Baker and
Stone. The Nominating Committee, which recommends to the full
Board persons for nomination as directors, met once during
1994.
No director attended fewer than 75% of the aggregate of the
total number of meetings held in 1994 by the Board of
Directors and its committees.
Section 16(a) Reporting
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
requires the Company's officers and directors, and persons who
own more than ten percent of Common Stock, to file reports of
ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission and
NASDAQ. Officers, directors and greater than ten-percent
shareholders are required to furnish the Company with copies
of all Section 16(a) forms they file.
Based solely on its review of copies of such forms received
by it, or written representations from certain reporting
persons that no Forms 5 were required for those persons, the
Company believes that, during 1994, all filing requirements
applicable to its officers, directors, and greater than ten-
percent shareholders were complied with, except that Mr. Davis
filed a late Form 4 that was due in June 1994 reporting a
purchase and Messrs. Usher and Davis each filed a late Form 5
that was due in February 1995 reporting option grants in
December 1994.
PROPOSAL TO ADOPT RESTATED
ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION
The Board of Directors has adopted, subject to shareholder
approval, Restated Articles of Incorporation (the "Restated
Articles") and recommends that you vote for the proposal to
approve the Restated Articles. If the proposal to adopt the
Restated Articles is approved by the shareholders, the
Restated Articles will become effective at the time the
Company files Articles of Restatement with the Office of the
Indiana Secretary of State. It is anticipated that such
action will occur on June 5, 1995.
The substance and effect of certain provisions of the
Restated Articles are described below and the complete text of
the proposed Restated Articles is set forth in Exhibit "A" to
this Proxy Statement. The following discussions are qualified
in their entirety by reference to the text of the proposed
Restated Articles.
Changing the Company's Name
The Restated Articles would change the Company's name from
"Intrenet, Inc." to "Roadrunner Enterprises, Inc." The Board
of Directors believes that the new name will have several
positive effects. First, the new name will more closely
identify the Company with two of its motor carrier
subsidiaries, Roadrunner Trucking, Inc. and Roadrunner
Distribution Services, Inc. Second, the new name will provide
a distinctive and promotable identity for the activities of
the Company and its subsidiaries. Finally, the new name will
eliminate continuing confusion in the investing public between
the Company and the "Internet" computer network.
Amendments Affecting Capitalization
The Restated Articles reflect certain changes to the
Company's capitalization. The Restated Articles provide for
authorized capital stock for the Company consisting of
25,000,000 shares of Common Stock, without par value, and
10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, without par value. The
Company's current Articles of Incorporation (the "Current
Articles") authorize 20,000,000 shares of Common Stock,
without par value.
The Restated Articles would increase the amount of
authorized shares of Common Stock by 5,000,000. At March 31,
1995 the Company had 13,162,178 shares of Common Stock
outstanding. This number reflects the issuance of 3,636,352
shares of Common Stock as a result of the conversion of $6
million principal amount of the 7% Convertible Subordinated
Debentures of the Company. At March 31, 1995 there were
warrants or options outstanding to purchase an additional
1,067,750 shares of Common Stock. At the same date, the
Company had reserved 752,250 shares of Common Stock for
issuance under the Company's 1993 Stock Option and Incentive
Plan.
The additional authorized shares of Common Stock would be
available for general corporate purposes, including additional
stock option grants, dividends or splits, mergers and
acquisitions and public or private offerings of securities.
Except as required in connection with the transaction that
would otherwise require shareholder approval, such as a
merger, no further approval would be required for future
issuances of Common Stock. Although the current number of
authorized shares of Common Stock is sufficient to permit the
Company to issue all of its existing or expected obligations
as described above, the Board of Directors believes that the
authorization of an additional 5,000,000 shares will provide
greater flexibility in structuring mergers, acquisitions,
capital raising transactions and employee benefit plans. The
Company has no present plans to issue any of the additional
authorized shares of Common Stock.
The Restated Articles authorize a class of Preferred Stock
not authorized under the Current Articles. Under the Restated
Articles, Preferred Stock could be issued in one or more
series upon adoption by the Board of Directors of an amendment
to the Restated Articles, without any further actions by the
shareholders. The Restated Articles give the Board of
Directors the authority to determine the designation, rights,
preferences, privileges and restrictions, including voting
rights, conversion rights, right to receive dividends, right
to assets upon any liquidation, and other relative benefits,
restrictions and limitations of any series of Preferred Stock.
The Board of Directors will also determine whether such
Preferred Stock will be convertible into other securities of
the Company, including Common Stock. Accordingly, the
issuance of Preferred Stock, while promoting flexibility in
connection with possible acquisitions and other corporate
purposes, could adversely affect the voting rights of the
holders of, or the market price of, Common Stock. The holders
of Preferred Stock also have the right to vote separately as a
class on any proposal involving fundamental changes in the
rights of holders of Preferred Stock pursuant to the Indiana
Business Corporation Law. The Company has no present plans to
issue Preferred Stock.
The Restated Articles also reduce the proportion of
directors required to approve the issuance of authorized
Common Stock or Preferred Stock. The Current Articles require
that two-thirds (2/3) of the Company's directors must approve
the issuance of any shares. The Restated Articles require
approval of a majority of directors prior to issuance of any
shares.
Provisions Affecting the Size of the Board of Directors
The Restated Articles provide that the number of directors
of the Company shall be fixed by the Company's By-Laws. The
Current Articles set the number of directors of the Company at
nine (9).
Provisions Affecting the Call of Special Meetings by
Shareholders
The Restated Articles provide that special meetings of
shareholders must be called upon written demand by holders of
shares representing at least fifty percent (50%) of all votes
entitled to be cast on the issue proposed for consideration at
the special meeting. The Current Articles allow holders of
shares representing at least twenty five percent (25%) of all
votes entitled to be cast to call a special meeting of
shareholders.
Antitakeover Effect
The overall effect of certain provisions of the Restated
Articles, including the increase in authorized shares of
Common Stock, the creation of the new class of Preferred
Stock, and the increase in number of shares needed to call a
special meeting of shareholders, may be to render more
difficult or to discourage a merger, tender offer or proxy
contest, the assumption of control of the Company by a holder
of a large block of the Company's stock or other person, or
the removal of incumbent management, even if such actions may
be beneficial to the Company's shareholders generally.
APPOINTMENT OF AUDITORS
The appointment of Arthur Andersen LLP as auditors for the
Company during 1995 is recommended by the Audit Committee of
the Board of Directors and will be submitted to the meeting in
order to permit the shareholders to express their approval or
disapproval. In the event that the votes cast against the
proposal exceed those cast in favor, the selection of auditors
will be made by the Board of Directors. A representative of
Arthur Andersen LLP is expected to be present at the meeting
and will be given an opportunity to make a statement if he
desires and to respond to appropriate questions.

Employment Contracts and Change in Control Arrangements
As of the date of this Proxy Statement, the Company has
employment agreements in effect with each of its executive
officers.
The employment agreement with the Company's President and
CEO, Jackson A. Baker, became effective on January 19, 1993,
and is for a term through December 31, 1995. The agreement
provides for an annual base salary of $300,000. The agreement
may be terminated by the Company's Board of Directors with or
without "cause". If the Company terminates the agreement
without cause, the agreement provides for a severance payment
of $75,000. If such termination occurs within 90 days after a
"change in control", the severance payment increases to
$300,000. If the Company terminates the agreement with cause
or if Mr. Baker terminates the agreement, dies or becomes
disabled, then there is no severance payment. On January 19,
1993, the Company also granted Mr. Baker non-qualified options
to purchase 200,000 shares of Common Stock at $1.50 per share
through December 31, 1997. The options have vested or will
vest as follows: 66,666 - July 1, 1993; 66,667 - July 1,
1994; and 66,667 - July 1, 1995. If Mr. Baker is not a full-
time employee of the Company on the vesting date, the options
lapse.
The employment agreement with the Company's Executive Vice
President, James V. Davis, became effective on August 2, 1993
and is for a term through June 30, 1996. The agreement
provides for an annual base salary of $200,000. The agreement
may be terminated by the Board of Directors with or without
"cause." If the Company terminates the agreement without
cause, the agreement provides for a severance payment of
$200,000. If the Company terminates the agreement with cause
or if Mr. Davis dies, becomes disabled or terminates the
agreement at any time other than within 90 days after a
"change in control," there is no severance payment. If
Mr. Davis terminates the agreement within 90 days after a
change in control, Mr. Davis is entitled to a severance
payment equal to the greater of $200,000 or the total
compensation, including bonus, paid to him for the preceding
year. On August 2, 1993, the Company issued Mr. Davis
incentive stock options under the Company's 1993 Stock Option
and Incentive Plan to purchase 100,000 shares of Common Stock
at $2.75 per share through June 30, 1998. All of such options
vested on or prior to January 1, 1995.
The employment agreement with the Company's Vice President -
Finance and Chief Financial Officer, Jonathan G. Usher, dated
March 1, 1994, has a term through February 28, 1996. The
agreement provides for an annual base salary of $145,000. The
agreement may be terminated by the Company or Mr. Usher either
with or without "cause," as defined in the agreement. If the
Company terminates the agreement without cause or if Mr. Usher
terminates the agreement with cause, the agreement provides
for a severance payment of $145,000. The definition of cause
that would entitle Mr. Usher to such severance payment
includes, but is not limited to, a change in control of the
Company. If the Company terminates the agreement with cause
or if Mr. Usher terminates the agreement without cause, dies
or becomes disabled, there is no severance payment.
Option Plans
On August 15, 1992, the Board of Directors adopted the
Company's 1992 Non-qualified Stock Option Plan (the "1992
Plan"). The 1992 Plan authorized the Board of Directors to
grant options to purchase up to 590,000 shares of Common
Stock. Recipients of the options may be employees of the
Company or its affiliates and certain independent contractors
providing services under agreements. During 1992, the Board
granted options to purchase 590,000 shares at prices of either
$1.50 (market value on the date of grant) or, in the case of
three executive officers, $1.00 per share. No further options
may be granted under the 1992 Plan. At December 31, 1994,
there were a total of 460,000 options outstanding under the
1992 Plan.
On April 6, 1993, the Board of Directors adopted the
Company's 1993 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the "1993
Plan"). The 1993 Plan was approved by shareholders on May 19,
1993. The 1993 Plan authorizes the Incentive Compensation
Committee of the Board of Directors to make awards of non-
qualified and incentive stock options and restricted stock to
officers or key employees of the Company and its subsidiaries.
The total number of shares of Common Stock available for
awards is 1,000,000, subject to antidilution adjustments. The
1993 Plan will terminate no later than April 6, 2003. Through
December 31, 1994, the Incentive Compensation Committee had
granted options to purchase a total of 254,750 shares, of
which 245,750 were outstanding at such date.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation in
Compensation Decisions
During 1994, the Compensation Committee consisted of
directors Morgens, Baker, Ades and Jackson. None of the
committee members are involved in a relationship requiring
disclosure as an interlocking executive officer/director or
under Item 404 of Regulations S-K or as a former officer or
employee of the Company.
Compensation Committee Report on Executive Compensation
General. The Compensation Committee decides, or recommends
to the Board for its decision, all matters of policy relating
to compensation of executive management. The Compensation
Committee consists of Messrs. Morgens, Baker, Ades, and
Jackson. The Incentive Compensation Committee approves grants
of stock and options to purchase stock under the 1993 Stock
Option and Incentive Plan. The Incentive Compensation
Committee is composed of Messrs. Morgens, Ades and Jackson.
Compensation programs for the Company's executive officers
are designed to attract, retain and motivate employees who
will contribute to achievement of corporate goals and
objectives. Elements of executive compensation include
salaries, bonuses, and awards of stock and options to purchase
stock, with the last two being variable in making its decision
or recommendations. The Incentive Compensation Committee
takes into account factors relevant to the specific
compensation component being considered, including
compensation paid by other business organizations of
comparable size and complexity, the generation of income and
cash flow by the business, the attainment of annual individual
and business objectives and an assessment of business
performance against peer groups of companies in the Company's
industries.
During 1994, the Incentive Compensation Committee granted
options to purchase 12,000 shares of the Company's Common
Stock to two of the Company's executive officers, Mr. Davis
and Mr. Usher. The options were granted at the market price
on the date of grant and have an exercise period of ten years.
The options granted to each executive officer represented less
than 5% of the total options granted to all employees during
1994. The Incentive Compensation Committee expects to
continue to consider grants of stock and options under the
1993 Stock Option and Incentive Plan on an annual basis to
executive officers in order to link executive compensation
more directly to increases in value in the Company's Common
Stock.
CEO Compensation. In late 1992, the Company began a search
for a new chief executive officer. In December 1992, the
Board of Directors approved the employment of Jackson A. Baker
as President and CEO to become effective at such time that the
Company completed its recapitalization. The recapitalization
became effective on January 19, 1993. Mr. Baker's
compensation is described elsewhere herein. The Compensation
Committee was not asked to determine Mr. Baker's compensation;
instead, the terms were negotiated by the Board's Finance
Committee at the time and submitted to the entire Board for
approval. The terms of Mr. Baker s compensation were not
altered during 1994. In general, the factors considered by
both the Finance Committee and the Board of Directors included
the Company's clear need to select a qualified successor, Mr.
Baker's experience as a chief operating officer of a
transportation firm and transportation consultant, and the
support for Mr. Baker indicated by prospective investors who
subsequently participated in the January 1993
recapitalization. Neither the Finance Committee nor the Board
of Directors based their actions concerning Mr. Baker's
employment on the Company's prior performance.

The graph below compares the cumulative total shareholder
return on the Common Stock for the last four years with a
cumulative total return on the NASDAQ Stock Market (US) Index
(the "NASDAQ Index") and the NASDAQ Trucking and
Transportation Stock Index (the "Trucking Index") over the
same period assuming the investment of $100 in the Company's
Common Stock, the NASDAQ Index and the Trucking Index on
May 9, 1991, the date on which the Common Stock began trading
on NASDAQ. The Company believes that comparisons with earlier
periods would not be meaningful. The shareholder return shown
on the graph is not necessarily indicative of future
performance.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
Great Basin Southwest Trucks, Inc. ("Great Basin"), a Salt
Lake City-based truck dealership, is an affiliate of director
Eric C. Jackson. In 1994, Great Basin sold approximately 150
tractors to unaffiliated leasing companies who in turn leased
the tractors to the Company's subsidiaries. The tractors had
an aggregate fair market value of approximately $10.7 million.
As selling dealer, Great Basin was paid a commission by the
lessors equal to approximately 2% of the fair market value of
the tractors. During 1995, the Company expects to lease an
additional 370 tractors that will be sold by Great Basin to
unaffiliated lessors. Such tractors will have an aggregate
fair market value of approximately $27.1 million. The lessors
will pay Great Basin a commission of approximately 2%. The
terms of the leases entered into with such leasing companies
are the result of arm's-length negotiations between the
Company and the lessors. The Company believes that the
involvement of Great Basin as selling dealer has not resulted
and will not result in lease terms that are less favorable to
the Company than would otherwise be available to it. The
Company also purchases maintenance parts and services from
Great Basis from time to time. Total payments to Great Basin
in 1994 for these services were $304,000.
