                                   EGL, INC.

          UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements
give effect to the merger of EGL and Circle to be accounted for as a pooling of
interests. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet presents the
combined financial position of EGL and Circle as of June 30, 2000 assuming that
the proposed merger had occurred as of June 30, 2000. Such pro forma information
is based upon the historical balance sheet data of EGL and Circle as of that
date.

     The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income gives effect
to the proposed merger of EGL and Circle by combining the results of operations
of EGL for the three years ended September 30, 1999 with the results of
operations of Circle for the three years ended December 31, 1999. In July 2000,
EGL determined to change its fiscal year end to December 31 and will file its
first annual report on that basis for the year ending December 31, 2000. The
periods have been labeled year ended December 31 to be more consistent with the
combined company's future year-end. EGL's results of operations for the six
months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 have been combined with Circle's results of
operations for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, and
accordingly, EGL's operating results for the three months ended December 31,
1999 have been omitted from the information presented. EGL's revenues, net
revenues, net income and basic and diluted earnings per share for the period
October 1, 1999 through December 31, 1999 were $187,365,000, $78,170,000,
$9,960,000, $0.35 and $0.33, respectively.

     These unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements,
including the notes thereto, of EGL and Circle, which are incorporated by
reference in this document. The unaudited pro forma financial statements are
presented for illustration purposes only, in accordance with the assumptions set
forth below, and are not necessarily indicative of the operating results or
financial position that would have occurred if the merger had been completed.
Nor is it necessarily indicative of future operating results or the financial
position of the combined enterprise. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined
statements of income do not reflect any adjustments to reflect any cost savings
or other synergies anticipated as a result of the merger or any future
merger-related restructuring or integration expenses.

      NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     On July 2, 2000, EGL, EGL Delaware and Circle entered into a merger
agreement. Under the merger agreement, EGL Delaware would merge with and into
Circle, and Circle, as the surviving corporation, would become a wholly owned
subsidiary of EGL. Under the terms of the merger, each Circle common share
issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger
will be converted into the right to receive one EGL common share. The business
combination will be accounted for using the pooling of interests method of
accounting. There are no material adjustments necessary to conform the
accounting policies of EGL and Circle.

     Because the transaction has not been completed, costs of the merger can
only be estimated at this time. The pro forma condensed combined statements of
income exclude:

     - the positive effects of potential cost savings and synergies that may be
       achieved upon combining the resources of the companies, and

     - estimated transaction costs of approximately $9.75 million (net of
       related income tax benefits of $0.75 million), including investment
       banking, legal and accounting fees and contractual executive severance
       payments.

     Additionally, EGL and Circle are developing a plan to integrate the
operations of EGL and Circle after the merger. In connection with that plan, EGL
anticipates that significant non-recurring charges will be incurred in
connection with the integration, including, among other things, severance costs,
office and facility relocation costs and costs to convert to common information
systems. EGL cannot factually identify the timing, nature and amount of these
charges as of the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus. However, any
charge could affect EGL's results of operations in the period in which charges
are recorded. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements do
not reflect any integration charges related to the merger.

2. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS

     There were no intercompany transactions that required elimination from the
pro forma condensed combined balance sheet or statements of income.

     (a) Other accrued liabilities -- The pro forma adjustment reflects the
expected incurrence of approximately $9.75 million (net of related income tax
benefits of $0.75 million) for one-time, estimated transaction costs directly
related to the merger that will be expensed at the time the merger is completed
as required under the pooling of interests accounting method. These charges
represent estimated direct merger costs, which include financial advisor fees of
approximately $6.6 million, outside legal and accounting fees and filing costs
of approximately $1.5 million, contractual executive severance payments
totalling approximately $1.9 million that will be directly attributable to the
consummation of the merger and various other costs and filing fees of $0.5
million.

     (b) Stockholders' equity -- The capital accounts have been adjusted to give
effect to the anticipated issuance of 17,679,890 EGL common shares in exchange
for all the outstanding Circle common shares. The excess of the par value of
Circle common shares exchanged over the par value of EGL common shares issued
has been credited to additional paid-in capital. The number of EGL common shares
to be issued in the merger will be based upon the actual number of Circle common
shares outstanding at that time.

     (c) Shares used in per share calculations -- Pro forma combined
weighted-average common shares outstanding for all periods presented are based
upon EGL's and Circle's combined historical weighted-average shares outstanding
in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128. As each
Circle

                                       8
   9

common share will be exchanged for one EGL common share, no adjustment of
Circle's historical weighted-average common share data is considered necessary.

     (d) Shares used in per share calculations -- Pro forma combined
weighted-average common shares outstanding used in the fully diluted calculation
have been adjusted to assume a dilutive effect related to common share
equivalents of the combined companies in accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 128. As each Circle common share and common share
equivalent will be exchanged for one EGL common share and common share
equivalent, no adjustment of Circle's historical weighted-average fully diluted
common share data is considered necessary.
