ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.
The disclosure in Item 4 is hereby supplemented by adding the following
after the last paragraph thereof:
On May 17, 2007, Parent and Acquisition Corp. delivered a letter to the
Special Committee (the "Revised Offer Letter"), whereby Parent and Acquisition
Corp. proposed an increased price for the shares of EGL Common Stock of $46.25
per share (the "Revised Offer"). A copy of the Revised Offer Letter is attached
hereto as Exhibit 7.31. The Revised Offer Letter indicated that the Revised
Offer was based on a termination fee of $40 million (and a corresponding reverse
termination fee of $40 million). In connection with the Revised Offer Letter,
Parent and Acquisition Corp. delivered to the Special Committee a proposed copy
of an amendment to the Merger Agreement effecting the Revised Offer, and copies
of revised debt and equity financing commitments and limited guarantees to be
executed and delivered in connection therewith.
In connection with the Revised Offer Letter, Centerbridge, Woodbridge and
Talon Management Holdings LLC, as assignee of Mr. Crane, entered into Amendment
No. 1 to Limited Liability Company Agreement of Parent (the "Interim LLC
Agreement Amendment"). The Interim LLC Agreement Amendment revised the

termination of the Merger Agreement. The foregoing description of the Interim
LLC Agreement Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its
entirety by reference to the Interim LLC Agreement Amendment, which is attached
hereto as Exhibit 7.32 and incorporated by reference in its entirety into this

letter agreement with Sterling (the "Sterling Consent Letter") whereby, in
connection with the agreement of Sterling to consent to the proposed amendment
to the Merger Agreement and the other transactions contemplated by the Revised
Offer Letter in connection with the Sterling Syndication Letter, Mr. Crane
agreed to pay to Sterling specified amounts in the event certain transactions
other than the transaction contemplated by the Revised Offer Letter are
2
consummated. The foregoing description of the Sterling Consent Letter does not
purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
Sterling Consent Letter, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 7.33 and
incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Item 4.
