Despite $ontinual organi6ing atte%pts by labor unions other than the pilots of FedEx Express all of our 9.S. e%ployees ha#e thus far $hosen not to unioni6e. /he 9.S. ;ongress has in the past $onsidered adopting $hanges in labor la!s ho!1 e#er that !ould %a*e it easier for unions to organi6e units of our e%ployees.

Finally $hanges to federal or state la!s go#erning e%ployee $lassifi$ation $ould i%pa$t the status of FedEx 2round"s o!ner1operators as independent $ontra$tors. FedEx 2round relies on o!ner1operators to $ondu$t its linehaul and pi$*up1and1deli#ery operations and the status of these o!ner1operators as independent $ontra$tors rather than e%ployees is being $hallenged. FedEx 2round"s use of independent $ontra$tors is !ell suited to the needs of the ground deli#ery business and its $usto%ers as e#iden$ed by the strong gro!th of this business seg%ent. We are in#ol#ed in nu%erous la!suits and state tax and other ad%inistrati#e pro$eedings that $lai% that the $o%pany"s o!ner1operators or their dri#ers should be treated as our e%ployees rather than independent $ontra$tors. We in$ur $ertain $osts in$luding legal fees in defending the status of FedEx 2round"s o!ner1operators as independent $ontra$tors. We belie#e that FedEx 2round"s o!ner1 operators are properly $lassified as independent $ontra$tors and that FedEx 2round is not an e%ployer of the dri#ers of the $o%pany"s independent $ontra$tors. @o!e#er ad#erse deter%inations in these %atters $ould a%ong other things entitle $ertain of our o!ner1 operators and their dri#ers to the rei%burse%ent of $ertain expenses and to the benefit of !age1and1 hour la!s and result in e%ploy%ent and !ithholding tax and benefit liability for FedEx 2round and $ould result in $hanges to the independent $ontra$tor status of FedEx 2round"s o!ner1operators. ;hanges to state la!s go#erning the definition of independent $ontra$tors $ould i%pa$t the status of FedEx 2round"s o!ner1operators. If FedEx 2round is $o%pelled to $on#ert its independent $ontra$tors to e%ployees labor organi6ations $ould %ore easily organi6e these indi#iduals our operating $osts $ould in$rease %aterially and !e $ould in$ur signifi$ant $apital outlays.

'egulatory a$tions affe$ting global a#iation or transportation rights or a failure to obtain or %aintain a#iation or other transportation rights in i%portant international

For exa%ple during 200A the European ;o%%ission appro#ed the extension of the European 9nion E%issions /rading S$he%e G<E/S=H for 2@2 e%issions to the airline industry. 9nder this de$ision all FedEx Express flights to and fro% any airport in any %e%ber state of the European 9nion are no! $o#ered by the E/S re4uire%ents and ea$h year !e are re4uired to sub%it e%ission allo!an$es in an a%ount e4ual to the $arbon dioxide e%issions fro% su$h flights. 5e$ause the European 9nion E/S is being $ontested by %any $ountries on a nu%ber of fronts and the effe$ti#e date for parts of the E/S has been delayed until next year the future i%pa$t on us is un$lear. In addition the 9.S. ;ongress has in the past $onsidered bills that !ould regulate 2@2 e%issions and so%e for% of federal $li%ate $hange legislation is possible in the future.

While the granting of su%%ary )udg%ent in fa#or of FedEx 2round by the %ultidistri$t litigation $ourt in 20 of the 2I $ases that had been $ertified as $lass a$tions re%ains sub)e$t to appeal !e belie#e that it signifi$antly i%pro#es the li*elihood that our independent $ontra$tor %odel !ill be upheld. .d#erse deter%inations in %atters related to FedEx 2round"s independent $ontra$tors ho!e#er $ould a%ong other things entitle $ertain of our o!ner1operators and their dri#ers to the rei%burse%ent of $ertain expenses and to the benefit of !age1and1 hour la!s and result in e%ploy%ent and !ithholding tax and benefit liability for FedEx 2round and $ould result in $hanges to the indepen1 dent $ontra$tor status of FedEx 2round"s o!ner1operators in $ertain )urisdi$tions. We belie#e that FedEx 2round"s o!ner1operators are properly $lassified as independent $ontra$tors and that FedEx 2round is not an e%ployer of the dri#ers of the $o%pany"s independent $on1 tra$tors. While it is reasonably possible that potential loss in so%e of these la!suits or su$h $hanges to the independent $ontra$tor status of FedEx 2round"s o!ner1operators $ould be %aterial !e $annot yet deter%ine the a%ount or reasonable range of potential loss. . nu%ber of fa$tors $ontribute to this. /he nu%ber of plaintiffs in these la!suits $ontinues to $hange !ith so%e being dis%issed and others being added and as to ne! plaintiffs dis$o#ery is still ongoing. In addition the parties ha#e $ondu$ted only #ery li%ited dis$o#ery into da%ages !hi$h $ould #ary $onsiderably fro% plaintiff to plaintiff. Further the range of potential loss $ould be i%pa$ted $onsiderably by future rulings on the %erits of $ertain $lai%s and FedEx 2round"s #arious defenses and on e#identiary issues. In any e#ent !e do not belie#e that a %aterial loss is probable in these %atters. In addition !e are defending $ontra$tor1%odel $ases that are not or are no longer part of the %ultidistri$t litigation three of !hi$h ha#e been $ertified as $lass a$tions. /hese $ases are in #arying stages of litigation and !e do not expe$t to in$ur a %aterial loss in any of these %atters. 0/@E' 8.//E'S. In .ugust 2010 a third1party $onsultant !ho !or*s !ith shipping $usto%ers to negotiate lo!er rates filed a la!suit in federal distri$t $ourt in ;alifornia against FedEx and 9nited 7ar$el Ser#i$e In$. G<97S=H alleging #iolations of 9.S. antitrust la!. /his %atter !as dis%issed in 8ay 2011 but the $ourt granted the plaintiff per%ission to file an a%ended $o%plaint !hi$h FedEx re$ei#ed in Bune 2011. In No#e%ber 2011 the $ourt granted our %otion to dis%iss this $o%plaint but again allo!ed the plaintiff to file an

a%ended $o%plaint. /he plaintiff filed a ne! $o%plaint in De$e%ber 2011 and the %atter re%ains pending before the $ourt. In February 2011 shortly after the initial la!suit !as filed !e re$ei#ed a de%and for the produ$tion of infor%ation and do$u%ents in $onne$tion !ith a $i#il in#estigation by the 9.S.

In No#e%ber 2012 the D0B ser#ed a $i#il in#estigati#e de%and on the third1party $onsultant see*ing all pleadings deposi1 tions and do$u%ents produ$ed in the la!suit.

While the litigation pro$eedings and the D0B in#estigation %o#e for!ard and the a%ount of loss if any is dependent on a nu%ber of fa$tors that are not yet fully de#eloped or resol#ed !e do not belie#e that a %aterial loss is reasonably possible. We ha#e re$ei#ed re4uests for infor%ation fro% the D0B in the Northern Distri$t of ;alifornia in $onne$tion !ith a $ri%inal in#estiga1 tion relating to the transportation of pa$*ages for online phar%a$ies that %ay ha#e shipped phar%a$euti$als in #iolation of federal la!. We responded to grand )ury subpoenas issued in Bune 200I and .ugust 200A and to additional re4uests for infor%ation pursuant to those subpoenas and !e $ontinue to respond and $ooperate !ith the in#estigation. We belie#e that our e%ployees ha#e a$ted in good faith at all ti%es.
