SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires Swift's officers
and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of Swift's common stock, to
file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and
Exchange Commission and to furnish us copies of all such filings. Based solely
upon a review of the copies of such forms furnished to Swift, or written
representations that no Forms 5 were required, Swift believes that during our
preceding fiscal year all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its
officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners were complied with,
except that Messrs. Farley and Jensen did not timely report one stock
transaction and Mr. Moyes did not timely report two stock transactions. All
transactions were reported on subsequent filings.

                              1998   $162,225   $137,775                                                               $ 18,000



(1)   "All Other Compensation" for each of the named executive officers included
      Swift contributions in the amount of $7,000 for 2000, $16,500 for 1999,
      and $18,000 for 1998, pursuant to the Swift Transportation Co., Inc.
      Retirement Plan, a 401(k) profit sharing plan. In addition to the amounts
      in the Summary Compensation Table above, under a Nonqualified Deferred
      Compensation Agreement between Swift and Mr. Riley, Swift made contingent
      deposits of $507,387 in 2000 to an investment account. The balance of
      compensation included in "All Other Compensation" for each of the named
      executive officers during each of the identified periods represents
      payments of term life and disability insurance premiums by Swift on behalf
      of the respective named executive officers. The amount of such insurance
      premiums paid on behalf of Mr. Riley during 2000, 1999, and 1998 was
      $7,060, $6,780, and $6,780, respectively. The amount of such insurance
      premiums paid on behalf of Mr. Sartor during 2000, 1999 and 1998 was
      $3,025, $3,025, and $3,025, respectively. Swift does not pay such premiums
      for Mr. Jensen or Mr. Farley. Swift procured two term life insurance
      policies with a combined face amount of $20 million for the benefit of
      Jerry Moyes and his spouse. The aggregate annual premiums paid by Swift
      for these polices were $147,377, $147,731, and $148,268 in 2000, 1999 and
      1998, respectively. Swift's purpose in maintaining these policies is to
      ensure that, in the event of the Moyes' deaths, their estate would be able
      to satisfy estate taxes without having to sell a large block of Swift's
      common stock, which might adversely affect the market for the common
      stock.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

Directors who are employees do not receive additional compensation for their
service as directors. Non-employee directors are paid an annual retainer of
$3,000 for their service as directors. In addition, non-employee directors
receive $500 for attending each board meeting and board committee meeting. Under
our Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan, each non-employee director also
receives an option to purchase 5,000 shares of common stock every fifth year.
These option grants vest and become exercisable over four years beginning on the
date of grant, permitting the holder to purchase shares at 85% of their fair
market value on the date of grant, which was $11.10 in the case of options
granted in 2000. Unless earlier terminated, forfeited or surrendered pursuant to
the plan, each option granted will expire on the sixth anniversary date of the
grant. Both employee and non-employee directors are reimbursed for reasonable
travel and related expenses incurred in connection with their service on the
board and board committees.

EMPLOYMENT AND CHANGE OF CONTROL AGREEMENTS

Swift currently does not have any employment contracts or severance agreements
with any of its executive officers. Swift has a deferred compensation agreement
with Mr. Riley, the contribution to which is described in footnote (1) to the
Summary Compensation Table. If the merger with M.S. Carriers is consummated,
Swift will enter employment agreements with current M.S. Carriers' executives
Michael S. Starnes, M. J. Barrow, James W. Welch, and Mike Reaves.

In the event Swift sells all or substantially all of its assets, or merges with
or into another corporation, stock options outstanding are required to be
assumed or equivalent options are required to be substituted by such successor
corporation or a parent or subsidiary of such successor corporation, unless
Swift's board of directors determines, in the exercise of its sole discretion
and in lieu of such assumption or substitution, that the option holder shall
have the right to exercise his or her option, including shares as to which such
option would not otherwise be exercisable. If the board makes options fully
exercisable in lieu of assumption or substitution in the event of a merger or
sale of assets, the board must notify the option holder that the option is fully
exercisable for a period of thirty (30) days from the date of such notice (but
not later than the expiration of the term of the option) and the option will
terminate upon the expiration of such period.

At December 31, 2000, $483,000 was owed by Swift for these transportation
services. Also, Swift was paid $1.9 million by this fleet operator and paid
