ITEM 1  DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Company Overview

   Velocity Express Corporation (formerly known as United Shipping &
Technology, Inc.) and its subsidiaries are engaged in the business of providing
same-day transportation and distribution/logistics services to individual
consumers and businesses. The Company operates primarily in the United States
with limited operations in Canada. The Company currently operates in a
single-business segment.

   The Company has one of the largest nationwide networks of time-critical
logistics solutions in the United States and is a leading provider of
scheduled, distribution and expedited logistics services. Our customers are
comprised of multi-location, blue chip customers with operations in the
commercial & office products, financial, healthcare, transportation &
logistics, technology, and energy sectors.

   The Company's service offerings are divided into the following categories:

  .   Scheduled logistics consisting of the daily pickup and delivery of
      parcels with narrowly defined time schedules predetermined by the
      customer.

  .   Distribution logistics consisting of the receipt of customer bulk
      shipments that are divided and sorted at major metropolitan locations and
      delivered into multiple routes with defined endpoints and more broadly
      defined time schedules.

  .   Expedited logistics consisting of unique and expedited point-to-point
      service for customers with extremely time sensitive delivery requirements.

   The largest customer base for scheduled logistics consists of financial
institutions that need a wide variety of services including the pickup and
delivery of non-negotiable instruments, primarily canceled checks and ATM
receipts, the delivery of office supplies, and the transfer of inter-office
mail and correspondence. Distribution logistics typically involves receiving
bulk shipments from the customer and dividing and sorting them for delivery to
specific locations. Customers utilizing distribution logistics normally include
pharmaceutical wholesalers, retailers, manufacturers or other companies who
must distribute merchandise every day from a

                                      1

<PAGE>

single point of origin to many locations within a clearly defined geographic
region. Most expedited logistics services occur within a major metropolitan
area or radius of 40 miles, and the Company usually offers one-hour, two- to
four-hour and over four-hour delivery services depending on the customer's time
requirements. These services are typically available 24 hours a day, seven days
a week. Expedited logistics services also include critical parts management and
delivery for companies.

Acquisition and Integration of Corporate Express Delivery Systems

   Effective August 28, 1999, United Shipping & Technology Inc., through a
wholly-owned subsidiary, acquired from CEX Holdings, Inc. ("CEX") all of the
outstanding shares of common stock of Corporate Express Delivery Systems, Inc.
("CEDS"), a provider of same-day delivery solutions. CEDS changed its name to
UST Delivery Systems, Inc., and subsequently changed its name to Velocity
Express, Inc. ("Velocity"). The results of Velocity's operations have been
included in the Company's consolidated financial statements since August 28,
1999.

   Immediately after the acquisition of CEDS, the Company initiated various
post-merger integration and consolidation initiatives. In fiscal 2000, the
Company integrated CEDS' management team into its own, resulting in the
elimination of redundant positions and the realignment and "right sizing" of
CEDS' field management structure. Upon the completion of this integration, the
Company then began divesting CEDS' non-core air courier business operations,
with the sale of one of the three acquired air courier operations in June 2000
and the closing or consolidation of unprofitable locations.

   In fiscal 2001, the Company divested the second of the three non-core air
courier operations in October 2000 and in the third quarter of fiscal 2001
announced the implementation of a multi-faceted restructuring program allowing
it to accelerate the "right-sizing" of its operations. As a result, the Company
streamlined and downsized its operations by reducing its workforce and
consolidating various locations. The total charge associated with this
restructuring program was $7.1 million consisting of severance costs of $2.2
million, $3.3 million for rental costs associated with the termination of
building leases and location rationalization costs and $1.6 million for the
write off of equipment.

   In fiscal 2002, the Company divested its third air courier business
operation in October 2001 and then focused its efforts on increasing the
efficiency of its driver costs through the variable cost delivery model and its
back office processes. In July 2001, Company began the transition to a variable
cost delivery model using independent contractors and employee-owner operators
in greater proportion to employee drivers. This transition resulted in improved
insurance expense and improvement in overall driver and vehicle-related costs.
During the same period the Company began integrating, through technology, all
back office processes into one common platform, which allowed the Company to
eliminate numerous redundant functions within its back office structure.

   For further discussion regarding the impact these initiatives had on the
operating performance of the Company, please see additional discussion in the
"Management's Discussion and Analysis" section below.

Industry Overview

   The Company operates in the same-day time-critical logistics industry, which
includes scheduled and non-scheduled, same-day transportation of documents and
packages in local and inter-city markets. The industry also provides
warehousing, facilities management and logistics solutions, as well as supply
chain management and cross-dock and package aggregation services.

   The Company believes the market for same-day time-critical logistics
solutions is large and growing. Based on industry studies, the U.S. same-day
transportation services market is estimated to generate revenues in excess of
$20 billion per year. Although the market is large, it is highly fragmented.
There are relatively low entry

                                      2

<PAGE>

barriers in this market as the capital requirements to start a local courier
business are relatively small and the industry is not subject to extensive
regulation. The Company believes there are currently as many as 6,000 same-day
transportation companies in the United States. Most are privately held and
operate only on the local level. The focus is generally on operations, with
little attention given to marketing and sales. Accordingly, the Company
believes there is little perceived service differentiation between competitors,
and that customer loyalty is generally short-term.

   There are no dominant brands in the same-day time-critical logistics
industry, and there is a relatively basic level of technology usage. By
contrast, the next-day package delivery industry is highly consolidated and
dominated by large, well-recognized companies such as UPS(R) and Federal
Express(R), both of which use technology extensively.

   The Company expects that further growth in the same-day time-critical
logistics market will be fueled by corporate America's trend toward outsourcing
and third-party logistics. Many businesses that outsource their distribution
and logistics needs prefer to purchase such services from one source, capable
of servicing multiple cities nationwide. Outsourcing decreases their number of
vendors and also maximizes efficiency, improves customer service and simplifies
billing. Customers are also seeking to reduce their cycle times and implement
"supply chain management" and "just-in-time" inventory management practices
designed to reduce inventory carrying costs. The growth of these practices has
increased the demand for more reliable logistics services. The Company believes
that same-day transportation customers increasingly seek greater reliability,
convenience, and speed from a trusted package delivery provider. Customers are
also seeking to streamline their processes, improve their customer-vendor
relationships and increase their productivity. The Company believes it is the
only national same-day transportation and logistics service provider with the
geographic reach and national footprint to meet these evolving needs.

Regulation and Safety

   The Company's business and operations are subject to various federal, state,
and local regulations and, in many instances, require permits and licenses from
these authorities. The Company holds nationwide general commodities authority
from the Federal Highway Administration of the U.S. Department of
Transportation to transport certain property as a motor carrier on an
inter-state basis within the contiguous 48 states and, where required, holds
statewide general commodities authority. The Company is also subject to
regulation by the Federal Aviation Administration/Transportation Safety
Administration for cargo shipments intended for transport on commercial
airlines.

   In connection with the operation of certain motor vehicles, the handling of
hazardous materials in its delivery operations and other safety matters,
including insurance requirements, the Company is subject to regulation by the
U.S. Department of Transportation and the states. The Company is also subject
to regulation by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, provincial
occupational health and safety legislation and federal and provincial
employment laws with respect to such matters as hours of work, driver logbooks
and workers' compensation. The Company believes that it is in compliance with
all of these regulations. Failure to comply with the applicable regulations
could result in substantial fines or possible revocations of one or more of the
Company's operating permits.

   From time to time, the Company's drivers are involved in accidents. The
Company carries liability insurance with a per claim self-insured retention.
Owner-operators and independent contractors are required to maintain auto
liability insurance at amounts required by the Company. The Company also has
insurance policies covering fidelity liability, which coverage includes all
drivers. The Company reviews prospective drivers to ensure that they have
acceptable driving records, and pass a criminal background and drug test, among
other criteria.

Sales and Marketing

   The Company has initiated a comprehensive sales and marketing program that
emphasizes its competitive position as the leading national provider of
same-day transportation services. The Company has also realigned its

                                      3

<PAGE>

national accounts and logistics team, and restructured its field sales
organization to effectively pursue growth opportunities. Sales efforts are
conducted at both the local and national levels through the Company's extensive
network of local sales representatives. The Company employs 33 marketing and
sales representatives who make regular calls on existing and potential
customers to determine their ongoing delivery and logistics needs. Sales
efforts are coordinated with customer service representatives who regularly
communicate with customers to monitor the quality of services and quickly
respond to customer concerns.

   The Company's sales department develops and executes marketing strategies
and programs that are supported by corporate communications and research
services. The corporate communications department also provides ongoing
communication of corporate activities and programs to employees, the press and
the general public. The expansion of the Company's national sales program and
continuing investment in technology to support expanding operations have been
undertaken at a time when large companies are increasing their demand for
delivery providers who offer a range of delivery services at multiple
locations. As of the end of fiscal 2004, approximately 80 percent of the
Company's revenues come from national companies needing multi-location
logistics solutions.

Competition

   The Company competes with a number of established, local, same-day couriers
and messenger services. Competition in local markets is intense. Nationally,
the Company competes with other large companies having same-day transportation
operations in multiple markets. Although many of the Company's competitors have
substantial resources and experience in the same-day transportation business,
the Company believes that its national presence, wide array of service
offerings, use of sophisticated technology and branding strategy will allow it
to successfully compete in any market in which it currently operates or may
elect to enter.

   There are also a number of national and international carriers who provide
document and package shipment solutions to individuals and business customers.
This market, which is dominated by major carriers such as UPS(R), Federal
Express(R), Airborne(TM), DHL(TM) and the United States Postal Service, is also
extremely competitive. However, these companies engage primarily in the
next-day and second-day ground and air delivery businesses and operate by
imposing strict drop-off deadlines and rigid package dimension and weight
limitations on customers. By comparison, the Company operates in the same-day
transportation business, and handles customized delivery needs on either a
scheduled, distribution or expedited basis. Accordingly, the Company does not
believe that it is in direct competition with these major carriers in same-day
transportation services although there are no assurances that one of these
entities might not enter its market.

Technology

   The Company believes the integration of high-tech communications software
within the currently low-tech same-day transportation business can provide a
market differentiation between its services and those of its competitors. The
Company believes customers will be attracted to companies with the ability to
offer greater efficiency, service, and customer supply chain information
through the use of technology. The Company plans to continue to use technology
to manage and coordinate its dispatching, delivery, tracking, warehousing and
logistics, and other back office functions in order to help its customers and
itself operate more efficiently and cost-effectively. To meet the customers'
needs for reliability, efficiency and speed, the Company has implemented and
will continue to implement the following technology initiatives:

  .   Smart package tracking technology which will provide a single source of
      aggregated delivery chain of custody supply chain information to national
      customers;

  .   A customer-oriented web portal for online information access to provide
      package tracking, chain-of-custody updates, electronic signature capture,
      real-time proof of delivery retrieval and customer order entry

  .   Route optimization software for large-market delivery efficiency

                                      4

Trademarks

   The Company has registered Velocity Express(R), Velocity(R), Relentless
Reliability(R) and currently has other applications pending for trademarks and
service marks ("marks") in the United States and internationally.. There can be
no assurance that any of these marks, if registered, will afford the Company
protection against competitors with similar marks that may have a use date
prior to that of the Company's. In addition, no assurance can be given that
others will not infringe upon the Company's marks, or that the Company's marks
will not infringe upon marks and proprietary rights of others. Furthermore,
there can be no assurance that challenges will not be instituted against the
validity or enforceability of any mark claimed by the Company, and if
instituted, that such challenges will not be successful.

Employees

   As of July 3, 2004, the Company had approximately 1,721 employees, of whom
approximately 786 primarily were employed in various management, sales, and
other corporate positions and approximately 935 were employed as drivers and
operations personnel. Additionally, the Company had contracts with
approximately 4,000 independent contractor drivers in its delivery operations
in North America. The Company believes that its relations with its employees
are good and the Company is not a party of any collective bargaining agreement.

present needs. Furthermore, the Company believes that suitable additional or
replacement space will be available when required.

   As of July 3, 2004, the Company leased approximately 735 vehicles of various
types through operating leases, which were operated by drivers employed by the
Company. The Company also engages independent contractors who provide their own
vehicles and are required to carry insurance coverage at levels dictated by the
Company.

   Aggregate rental expense, primarily for facilities, was approximately $18.6
million for the year ended July 3, 2004. See Note 10 to the Company's

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

   The Company is a party to litigation and has claims asserted against it
incidental to its business. Most of such claims are routine litigation that
involves workers' compensation claims, claims arising out of vehicle accidents
and other claims arising out of the performance of same-day transportation
services. The Company carries workers compensation insurance and auto liability
coverage for its employees. The Company and its subsidiaries are also named as
defendants in various employment-related lawsuits arising in the ordinary
course of the business of the Company. The Company vigorously defends against
all of the foregoing claims.

   The Company has established reserves for litigation, which it believes are
adequate. The Company reviews its litigation matters on a regular basis to
evaluate the demands and likelihood of settlements and litigation related
expenses. Based on this review, the Company does not believe that the pending
active lawsuits, if resolved or settled unfavorably to the Company, would have
a material adverse effect upon the Company's balance sheet or results of
operations. The Company has managed to fund settlements and litigation expenses
through cash flow and believes that it will be able to do so going forward.
Settlements and litigation expenses have not had a material impact on cash flow
and the Company believes they will not have a material impact going forward.

Cautionary Statements Regarding Pending Litigation and Claims

   The Company's statements above concerning pending litigation constitute
forward-looking statements. Investors should consider that there are many
important factors that could adversely affect the Company's assumptions and the
outcome of claims, and cause actual results to differ materially from those
projected in the forward-looking statements. These factors include:

  .   The Company has made estimates of its exposure in connection with the
      lawsuits and claims that have been made. As a result of litigation or
      settlement of cases, the actual amount of exposure in a given case could
      differ materially from that projected. In addition, in some instances,
      the Company's liability for claims may increase or decrease depending
      upon the ultimate development of those claims.

  .   In estimating the Company's exposure to claims, the Company is relying
      upon its assessment of insurance coverages and the availability of
      insurance. In some instances insurers could contest their obligation to
      indemnify the Company for certain claims, based upon insurance policy
      exclusions or limitations. In addition, from time to time, in connection
      with routine litigation incidental to the Company's business, plaintiffs
      may bring claims against the Company that may include undetermined
      amounts of punitive damages. The Company is currently not aware of any
      such punitive damages claim or claims in the aggregate which would exceed
      10% of its current assets. Such punitive damages are not normally covered
      by insurance.

ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

   No matters were submitted to shareholders during the fourth quarter of
fiscal 2004.

    warrants.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

   The following describes sales of the Company's securities in the last fiscal
quarter without registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities
Act"):

   In February 2004, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the sale of up
to $12.0 million of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series J Preferred")
through a private placement. In the March and April 2004, the Company sold
3,088,126 shares of Series J Preferred to investors for net proceeds of
approximately $4.6 million. The issuance of the Series J Preferred is subject
to shareholder approval and is non-voting unless it is converted into common
stock. Additionally, shareholder approval is required to increase the number of
authorized shares of the Company's stock by an amount sufficient to provide for
the issuance of all the preferred shares. TH Lee Putnam Ventures and MCG
Global, who control a majority of the shares have agreed to vote for such
approvals. The initial conversion price of the Series J Preferred is $0.15 per
common share, and is convertible, upon shareholder approval of the issuance of
the Series J Preferred, into the Company's common stock. Both the conversion
price and the number of common shares into which the Series J Preferred is
convertible are subject to adjustment in order to prevent dilution. In the
event the Company issues or sells any shares of Common Stock or securities
convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock for a consideration per share
of Common Stock received or receivable upon conversion or exercise of such
securities, of less than the market price of the Common Stock, determined as of
the date of the initial issue or sale, the conversion rate of the Series J
Preferred shall be proportionately adjusted to prevent dilution. The Series J
Preferred was deemed to have contained a beneficial conversion amounting to
$4.6 million which was recognized as a deemed dividend to preferred
shareholders. The Company began selling its Series J Preferred on March 30,
2004 and has completed the sale of the Series J Preferred on July 26, 2004.
Upon completion of the sale of the Series J Preferred, the Company will be
required to recognize a charge against net income (loss) available to common
shareholders of approximately $7.4 million to reflect the beneficial conversion
in the Series J Preferred.

   On June 30, 2004, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the sale of up
to $25 million of Series K Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series K Preferred")
through a private placement. Pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement entered
into on August 23, 2004, the Company sold, pending shareholder approval,
7,266,666 shares of Series K Preferred to investors for $1.50 per share and
received net proceeds of approximately $10.9 million. The issuance of the
Series K Preferred is subject to shareholder approval and is non-voting unless
it is converted into common stock. Additionally, shareholder approval is
required to increase the number of authorized shares of the Company's common
stock by an amount sufficient to provide for the issuance of all the preferred
shares. TH Lee Putnam Ventures and MCG Global, who control a majority of the
shares have agreed to vote for such approvals. The initial conversion price of
the Series K Preferred is $0.15 per common share, and, at the time the stock
purchase agreements were executed, assuming that the Series K Preferred were
issued and convertible then, each share of Series K Preferred was convertible
into ten shares of the Company's common stock. Both the conversion price and
the number of common shares into which the Series K Preferred is convertible
are subject

                                      9

<PAGE>

to adjustment in order to prevent dilution. The Series K Preferred was deemed
to have contained a beneficial conversion amounting to $10.9 million which was
recognized as a deemed dividend to preferred shareholders. The Company began
selling its Series K Preferred on August 23, 2004 and has not completed the
sale of the total authorized Series K Preferred. Upon completion of the sale of
the Series K Preferred, the Company may again be required to recognize a charge
against net income (loss) available to common shareholders to reflect the
beneficial conversion.

   The Company did not use an underwriter or placement agent in connection with
selling the Series' J and K Preferred, and no underwriting commissions were
paid. No means of general solicitation was used in offering the securities. The
securities were sold to a limited group of accredited investors within the
meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933 (the
"Securities Act") in a private placement transactions, exempt from registration
under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D
thereunder.

   On December 21, 2004, the Company signed a purchase agreement to raise
approximately $21 million of new equity capital investment. The investment is
initially in the form of a convertible note that will automatically convert
into Series M Convertible Preferred Stock upon approval of the transaction by
the Company's shareholders. The proceeds will be used for general working
capital needs consistent with financial budgets approved from time to time by
the Company's Board of Directors. The Preferred Series M Stock will accrue
cumulative PIK dividends equal to 6% per annum. In the event the Company's
shareholders do not approve the transaction, the interest rate will increase to
19%. As part of the transaction, the investors required that the Company's
charter be amended in a number or respects, including a requirement that, upon
shareholder approval for the transaction, all preferred shareholders
automatically convert their shares of preferred stock to common stock. In the
event of any liquidation or winding up of the Company, the holders of the
Preferred Series M will be entitled to a preference on liquidation equal to one
times (1x) the original purchase price of the Preferred Series M Stock plus
accrued and unpaid dividends. A consolidation or merger of the Company or a
sale of substantially all of its assets shall be treated as a liquidation for
these purposes.

   The investment will provide the Company with sufficient working capital
resources to provide for the anticipated liquidity needs for the fiscal year,
and to position the Company to accept definitive and available business with
existing and new customers by settling their respective concerns about the
Company's ability to service their respective business needs on a continuing
basis.

   As part of the above-described Series M private placement, the new investors
required that TH Lee Putnam Ventures ("THLPV") reach an agreement to extend,
for a two-year period, the July 1, 2004 capital contribution agreement
previously entered into between THLPV and the lenders. Under the terms of the
capital contribution agreement, in the event that THLPV elects to not provide
further financial support for the Company, THLPV is required to notify the
Company's lenders of such decision and provide specific levels of financial
support for a thirty (30) day period following the notification. In exchange
for entering into the capital contribution agreement, the lenders agreed to
waive certain financial covenants under the Company's credit facilities. At the
time, THLPV did not receive any compensation in exchange for entering into the
capital contribution agreement. As part of the extension of the capital
contribution agreement the Company agreed to issue to THLPV, subject to
shareholder approval, a warrant to purchase shares of common stock equal to 1%
of the fully diluted common stock of the Company on a fully converted basis.
The term of the warrant will be five years and will have an exercise price of
$0.0001. Due to the pricing of the warrant, the Company expects to take a
charge.

   The new investors, in the Company's Preferred Series M, include: Special
Situations Fund III, LP and affiliated entities Scorpion Capital Partners, LP,
Pequot Capital; TH Lee Putnam Ventures and affiliated entities Jack Duffy,
William Kingston, Adolf DiBiasio, Vincent Wasik, and MCG Global, LLC.

   On December 20, 2004, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the sale
of up to $7.0 million of Series L Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series L
Preferred") through a private placement. The purchaser will be TH Lee Putnam
Ventures and its related affiliates. The Company entered into a Stock Purchase
Agreement on

                                      10

<PAGE>

December 21, 2004, pursuant to which the Company will sell, pending shareholder
approval, 7,000,000 shares of Series L Preferred to investors for $1.00 per
share for net proceeds of approximately $7.0 million. The consideration for the
Series L will consist of cancellation of the Company's obligation to repay the
investor the funds paid by the investor to the Company's senior lender to
support the Company's revolving credit facility. The issuance of the Series L
Preferred is subject to shareholder approval and is non-voting unless it is
converted into common stock. Additionally, shareholder approval is required to
increase the number of authorized shares of the Company's common stock by an
amount sufficient to provide for the issuance of all the preferred shares. TH
Lee Putnam Ventures and MCG Global, who control a majority of the shares have
agreed to vote for such approvals. The conversion price of the Series L
Preferred is $0.10 per common share, and, at the time the stock purchase
agreements are executed, assuming that the Series L Preferred were issued and
convertible then, each share of Series L Preferred will be convertible into ten
shares of the Company's common stock. Based on the pricing of the Series L
Preferred, the sale of Series L Preferred is expected to contain a beneficial
conversion amounting to $7.0 million which will be recognized as a deemed
dividend to preferred shareholders at the time of the sale and a charge against
net income (loss) available to common shareholders.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

   This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations and other parts of this Annual Report on Form 10-K contain
forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The Company's
actual results may differ significantly from the results discussed in the
forward-looking statements and such differences may be material.

   Sales consist primarily of charges to customers for delivery services and
weekly or monthly charges for recurring services, such as facilities
management. Sales are recognized when the service is performed. The Revenue and
Profit for a particular service is dependent upon a number of factors including
size and weight of articles transported, distance transported, special handling
requirements, requested delivery time and local market conditions. Generally,
articles of greater weight transported over longer distances and those that
require special handling produce higher revenue and associated profits.

   Cost of sales consists of costs relating directly to performance of
services, including driver and messenger costs, third party delivery charges,
insurance and workers' compensation costs. Substantially all of the drivers
used by the Company provide their own vehicles, and approximately 81% of these
owner-operators are independent contractors as opposed to employees of the
Company. Drivers and messengers are generally compensated based on a percentage
of the delivery charge. Consequently, the Company's driver and messenger costs
are variable in nature. To the extent that the drivers and messengers are
employees of the Company, employee benefit costs related to them, such as
payroll taxes and insurance, are also included in cost of sales.

   Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") include salaries,
wages and benefit costs incurred at the branch level related to taking orders
and dispatching drivers and messengers, as well as administrative costs related
to such functions. Also included in SG&A expenses are regional and corporate
level marketing and administrative costs and occupancy costs related to branch
and corporate locations.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

   The Company's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of
operations are based upon the Company's consolidated financial statements,
which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements
requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported
amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company
evaluates its estimates, including those related to bad debts, goodwill and
intangible assets, insurance reserves, income taxes, and contingencies and
litigation. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on
various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about
the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent
from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under
different assumptions or conditions.

   The Company believes the following critical accounting policies affect its
more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its
consolidated financial statements.

    .  Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

       The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated
       losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make payments
       when due or within a reasonable period of time thereafter. Estimates are
       used in determining this allowance based on the Company's historical
       collection experience, current trends, credit policy and a percentage of
       accounts receivable by aging category. If the financial condition of the
       Company's customers were to deteriorate resulting in an impairment of
       their ability to make required payments, additional allowances or
       write-off may be required. In fiscal 2003, the Company hired an outside
       collection agency that assisted in a detailed review of the Company's
       accounts receivable. As a result of the review, the Company noticed
       deterioration in various customer receivable accounts and wrote off
       approximately $4.0 million of customer receivables. In fiscal, 2004 the
       Company increased the valuation allowance by a net $2.4 million.

    .  Goodwill and Intangible Impairment

       The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of
       Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 142, Goodwill and Other
       Intangible Assets, in June 2001. Effective with fiscal 2002 as a result
       of adopting this new standard, the Company no longer amortizes goodwill.
       Rather, goodwill is subjected to impairment testing, which requires that
       the Company estimate the fair value of its goodwill and compare that
       estimate to the amount of goodwill recorded on the balance sheet. The
       estimation of fair value requires making judgments concerning future
       cash flows and appropriate discount rates. These cash flow estimates
       take into account current customer volumes and the expectation of new or
       renewed contracts, historic gross margins, historic working capital
       parameters and planned capital expenditures. The estimate of the fair
       value of goodwill could change over time based on a variety of factors,
       including the actual operating performance of the Company. If these
       estimates or their related assumptions change in the future, the Company
       may be required to record impairment charges for these assets.

       In order to determine the fair value of Velocity Express the Company
       employed three approaches, as follows:

        .   Implied Enterprise Value based upon publicly trade stock prices;

        .   Analysis of Fair Value based upon most recent corporate
            transactions; and

        .   Analysis of Fair Value based upon Discounted Cash Flow.

       Each of the approaches indicated above yield a range of values and is
       widely accepted in determining Fair Value for an enterprise. In each
       instance, the values indicated were in excess of the carrying amount of
       Goodwill, and therefore no adjustment for impairment was required in
       fiscal 2004.

    .  Insurance Reserves

       The Company maintains an insurance program with insurance policies that
       have various deductible levels. The Company reserves the estimated
       amounts of uninsured claims and deductibles related to such insurance
       retentions for claims that have occurred in the normal course of
       business. These reserves are established by management based upon the
       recommendations of third-party administrators who perform a specific
       review of open claims, with consideration of incurred but not reported
       claims, as of the balance sheet date. Actual claim settlements may
       differ materially from these estimated reserve amounts.

    .  Income Taxes

       In determining the carrying value of the Company's net deferred tax
       assets, the Company must assess the likelihood of sufficient future
       taxable income in certain tax jurisdictions, based on estimates and
       assumptions in order to realize the benefit of these assets. Management
       evaluates whether the deferred tax assets may be realized and assesses
       the need for additional valuation allowances or reduction of existing
       allowances. Consistent with prior years, the Company has assessed a
       valuation allowance against its entire deferred tax asset as of July 3,
       2004.

    .  Contingencies

       As discussed in Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements, the
       Company is involved in various legal proceedings and contingencies and
       has recorded liabilities for these matters in accordance with SFAS No.
       5, Accounting for Contingencies. SFAS No. 5 requires a liability to be
       recorded based on the Company's estimate of the probable cost of the
       resolution of a contingency. The actual resolution of these
       contingencies may differ from our estimates. If a contingency were
       settled for an amount greater than the estimate, a future charge to
       income would result. Likewise, if a contingency were settled for an
       amount that is less than the estimate, a future credit to income would
       result.

Overview

   The Company is engaged in the business of providing same-day time-critical
logistics solutions to individual consumers and businesses, primarily in the
United States with limited operations in Canada.

   The Company has one of the largest nationwide networks of time-critical
logistics solutions in the United States and is a leading provider of
scheduled, distribution and expedited logistics services. The Company's service
offerings are divided into the following categories:

  .   Scheduled logistics consisting of the daily pickup and delivery of
      parcels with narrowly defined time schedules predetermined by the
      customer, for example, financial institutions that need a wide variety of
      services including the pickup and delivery of non-negotiable instruments,
      primarily canceled checks and ATM receipts, the delivery of office
      supplies, and the transfer of inter-office mail and correspondence.

  .   Distribution logistics consisting of the receipt of customer bulk
      shipments that are divided and sorted at major metropolitan locations and
      delivered into multiple routes with defined endpoints and more broadly
      defined time schedules. Customers utilizing distribution logistics
      normally include pharmaceutical wholesalers, retailers, manufacturers or
      other companies who must distribute merchandise every day from a single
      point of origin to many locations within a clearly defined geographic
      region.

  .   Expedited logistics consisting of unique and expedited point-to-point
      service for customers with extremely time sensitive delivery
      requirements. Most expedited logistics services occur within a major
      metropolitan area or radius of 40 miles, and the Company usually offers
      one-hour, two- to four-hour and over four-hour delivery services
      depending on the customer's time requirements. These services are
      typically available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Expedited
      logistics services also include critical parts management and delivery
      for companies.

   The Company's customers represent a variety of industries and utilize the
Company's services across multiple service offerings. Revenue categories and
percentages of total revenue are as follows:

<TABLE>
                 <S>                                      <C>
                 Commercial & office products............ 34.9%
                 Financial services...................... 31.0%
                 Healthcare.............................. 20.1%
                 Transportation & logistics..............  7.5%
                 Energy..................................  4.7%
                 Technology..............................  1.7%
</TABLE>

   With the enactment of the Federal Law known as Check 21, on October 28,
2004, the Company anticipates continued derogation of financial services
revenue as financial institutions will now electronically scan and process
checks, without the required need to move the physical documents to the
clearing institution. More than off-setting this derogation of revenue in the
Financial Services industry, the Company believes it will continue to benefit
from the growth in Healthcare and Healthcare related services industries within
the United States, and be able to effectively leverage their broad coverage
footprint to capitalize on this national growth industry.

   During fiscal 2005, the Company plans to continue to invest in automated
technologies that will increase their competitive advantage in the market by
providing more economical delivery routing, enhance and automated package
tracking, and increased productivity from both a frontline delivery and back
office perspective. During fiscal 2004, the Company spent over $3 million, in
the development and implementation of route management software solutions that
are anticipated to have a significant impact on reducing overall delivery cost,
and increasing the Company's ability to better manage their variable operating
cost. These initiatives will be fine tuned over the next 12 to 24 months, and
are anticipated to be applied across all services offering categories, allowing
the Company to become more profitable and price competitive, through optimized
route management and delivery density.

                                      15

<PAGE>

   Achieving the Company's financial goals involves maximizing the
effectiveness of the variable cost model by replacing Company drivers with
independent drivers, the implementation of customer-driven technology solutions
and continued leverage of the consolidated back office SG&A platform. To date,
the Company has primarily relied upon debt and equity investments to fund these
activities. During fiscal 2005, the Company will continue to seek the required
additional financing from lenders or through the issuance of additional equity;
however, there can be no assurance that this funding can be obtained.

Historical Results of Operations

Year ended July 3, 2004 Compared to Year Ended June 28, 2003

   The Company reports its financial results on a 52-53 week fiscal year basis.
Under this basis, the Company's fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to
June 30/th/. Fiscal 2004 was a 53 week year, 2003 and 2002 each consisted of 52
weeks. In fiscal years consisting of 53 weeks, the final quarter will consist
of 14 weeks. As such, the fiscal 2004 year includes an additional week of
revenues and expenses when compared against the results of fiscal 2003 and
2002, respectively.

   Revenue for the year ended July 3, 2004 decreased $19.2 million or 6.3% to
$287.9 million from $307.1 million for the year ended June 28, 2003. The
decrease in revenue for the year ended July 3, 2004 compared to the same period
last year is related to lower volume experienced as a result of customer
attrition, revenue loss associated with pricing pressure, and customer freight
volume fluctuations of approximately $54.3 million. This decline was offset by
revenue growth during the year from new customer contracts and expansion within
existing customers of approximately $35.1 million. A greater focus on selling
to national accounts resulted in an increased proportion of revenues
originating from those accounts. In fiscal 2004, $149.5 million or 51.9% of
total revenues can be attributed to the Company's 50 largest accounts; versus
$129.1 million or 42.0% during fiscal 2003.

   The Company is continually engaged in bidding additional contract work for a
variety of customers. The Company's current pipeline of bidding activity
remains robust, with potential customers whose expected billings would amount
to approximately $92 million on an annual basis. The activity is consistent
across all geographic regions in which the Company operates. Implementation of
newly awarded contracts generally requires from thirty to sixty days for full
implementation.

   Cost of services for the year ended July, 2004 was $238.3 million, a
reduction of $2.8 million or 1.2% from $241.1 million for the year ended June
28, 2003. These decreases consist of a $7.5 million volume and restructure
related reductions in employee driver, and employee driver related, cost,
off-set by increases of $4.7 million related to the rising insurance cost.
During 2004, under the employee driver based model, the Company was effected
adversely by fix driver pay commitments during periods where customer attrition
and reductions in sales volume where experienced. As a result, when combined
with the increase in insurance cost, gross margin declined from 21.5% in the
prior-year to 17.2% for the year ended July 3, 2004. During the Second/Third
Quarter of 2004, the Company began the implementation of an independent
contractor driver based model, which it believes will allow for continued
improvement in driver related cost, inclusive of insurance related
expenditures, creating a more variable based cost structure and higher gross
margins. As of July 3, 2004, the Company had reduced the number of employee
based drivers by approximately 10% from the prior fiscal year-end.
Additionally, the Company is now implementing proprietary route management
technology which it feels will allow the Company to improve its gross margin.
The implementation was begin in February 2004 and is targeted to be completed
in all areas within a two year period.

   Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses for the year ended
July, 2004 were $79.9 million or 27.7% of revenue, an increase of $17.9 million
or 28.9% as compared with $62.0 million or 20.2% of revenue for the year ended
June 28, 2003. The increase in SG&A for the year resulted, in part, from $7.7
million of incremental adjustments to the Company's accounts receivable versus
the one year prior period. An additional $2.7 million of SG&A was recorded to
recognize the cost of warrants issued to certain members of management.

                                      16

<PAGE>

Further, approximately $2.4 million of the SG&A increase relates to increased
utilization of contract labor. Other items contributing to the increase totaled
$5.1 million, including $1.0 million of deferred financing costs related to
previous financings. Such costs did not have any relationship to the credit
facilities in place at the end of the fiscal year.

   Occupancy charges for the year ended July 3, 2004 were $14.0 million, an
increase of $1.0 million or 8.1% from $13.0 million for the year ended June 28,
2003. The net increase is due to higher utility and common area maintenance
charges, higher net rental expense and the expansion of facilities to handle
increased demands associated with new markets, the expansion of the Company's
coverage footprint and location specific growth and volume related requirements.

   Interest expense for the year ended July 3, 2004 increased $0.4 million to
$3.4 million from $3.0 million for the year ended June 28, 2003. Interest
expense related to the Company's borrowings increased over the same period in
the prior year as a result of higher average interest rates under the revolving
credit and senior subordinated debt facilities.

   As a result of the foregoing factors, the net loss for the year ended July
3, 2004 was $47.8 million, compared with $12.3 million for the same period in
fiscal 2003, a decline of $35.5 million.

   Net loss applicable to common shareholders was $77.7 million for year ended
July 3, 2004 as compared with $15.6 million for the same period in fiscal 2003.
For the year, the difference between net loss applicable to common shareholders
and net loss in the current year relates to the beneficial conversion
associated with the sale of the Series I Preferred & Series J Preferred. In the
prior-year, the difference between net loss applicable to common shareholders
and net loss related to the accretion of the charge associated with the common
stock warrants issued with the Series H Preferred.

Year ended June 28, 2003 Compared to Year Ended June 29, 2002

   Revenue for the year ended June 28, 2003 decreased $35.6 million or 10.4% to
$307.1 million from $342.7 million for the year ended June 29, 2002. The
decrease in revenue for the year ended June 28, 2003 is related to the
divesture of a non-core air courier business operation of $4.1 million and
lower volume experienced as a result of customer attrition, revenue loss
associated with pricing pressure, and volume declines from the soft economy and
severe weather of approximately $50.3 million. This decline was offset by
revenue growth from new customer contracts during fiscal 2003 of approximately
$18.8 million.

   Cost of services for the year ended June 28, 2003 was $241.1 million, a
reduction of $23.7 million or 9.0% from $264.8 million for the year ended June
29, 2002. The reduction of $23.7 million consists of $3.7 million related to
the divestiture of a non-core air courier business operation and $20.0 million
in reduced costs as a result of the reduced revenue described above. In fiscal
2002, the Company's results were impacted favorably by one-time gains achieved
through the initial conversion to the variable cost model. As a result of the
one-time savings achieved in fiscal 2002, gross margin declined from 22.7% in
the prior year to 21.5% for the year ended June 28, 2003. The Company continues
to refine its variable cost strategy, which will allow the Company to continue
to realize savings related to overall driver and vehicle-related costs.

   Selling General and Administrative ("SG&A") expenses for the year ended June
28, 2003 were $62.0 million or 20.2% of revenue, a reduction of $1.0 million or
1.6% as compared with $63.0 million or 18.4% of revenue for fiscal 2002. The
decrease in SG&A for fiscal 2003 resulting from integrating, through
technology, all back office processes into one common platform as well as the
Company's continued focus on this integration and scaling back expenses as a
result of the soft economy amounted to $6.3 million. The sale of a non-core air
courier business operation eliminated $0.6 million of related costs. These
reductions were offset by charges associated with the valuation of certain
accounts receivable of $4.0 million and various claims amounting to $1.9
million. In fiscal 2003, the Company hired an outside collection agency that
assisted in a detailed review of the

                                      17

<PAGE>

Company's accounts receivable. As a result of the review, the Company noticed
deterioration in its various customer receivable accounts and took a charge of
$4.0 million. Excluding these charges, the operational reduction in SG&A
expenses from fiscal 2002 to fiscal 2003 was actually $6.9 million or 11.0%.

   Occupancy charges for fiscal 2003 were $13.0 million, a reduction of $0.1
million or 0.8% from $13.1 million for the year ended June 29, 2002. The
improvement for the year is due to divestitures of a non-core air courier
business operation and better utilization of space in facilities currently
occupied, offset by slightly higher costs in the third and fourth quarters
related to new office startups and higher utility costs related to the cold
weather and higher fuel costs.

   Interest expense for the year ended June 28, 2003 decreased $9.6 million to
$3.0 million from $12.6 million for the year ended June 30, 2002. Included in
interest expense for the prior year are certain non-cash charges related to the
conversion of the Series D Bridge Notes and interest thereon amounting to
approximately $4.7 million as well as a non-cash charge of $4.0 million related
to a long-term guarantee the Company received from its largest shareholder on
two letters of credit supporting the Company's revolving credit facility.
Interest expense related to the Company's borrowings decreased over the prior
year primarily as a result of lower interest rates as the Company used LIBOR
contracts for the majority of its borrowings under the revolving credit
facility.

   The net loss for the year ended June 28, 2003 was $12.3 million, compared
with $10.5 million for the same period in fiscal 2002, an increase of $1.8
million or 17.1%. Exclusive of the SG&A charges of $5.9 million discussed
above, the net loss for the year ended June 28, 2003 was $6.4 million.

   Net loss applicable to common shareholders was $15.6 million for the year
ended June 28, 2003 as compared with $20.4 million for the year ended June 29,
2002. The difference in the current year between net loss applicable to common
shareholders and net loss relates to the beneficial conversion associated with
Series H Preferred and the charge associated with the issuance of warrants to
the holders of Series H Preferred. In the prior year, the difference between
net loss applicable to common shareholders and net loss was comprised of
non-cash charges associated with the Company's redeemable preferred stock.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

   Cash flow used in operations was $15.6 million for fiscal 2004. This use of
funds was comprised of cash used in operations of $26.9 million offset by cash
provided as a result of working capital changes of $11.3 million ($7.1 million
of which was provided through an aggressive review of accounts payable terms).

   Cash flow used as a result of investing activities was $5.5 million and
consisted primarily of capital expenditures for the Company's continued
development and implementation of cost savings and customer-driven technology
solutions initiatives. The Company's major technological cost savings
initiative entails detailed and interactive analysis and optimization of the
Company's routing designs and metrics. This effort is focused upon optimizing
the efficiency of route definition and benchmarking standards used in delivery
metrics and driver settlements. Two customer-driven technology solutions
initiatives were placed in service during the fiscal year and are comprised of
two elements: (i) a smart package tracking technology which provides a single
source of aggregated delivery information to national customers, and (ii) a
customer-oriented web portal for online information access to provide package
tracking, chain-of-custody updates, electronic signature capture, and real-time
proof of delivery retrieval. The Company expects to reduce its capital
expenditures in fiscal 2005 due to the near completion of portions of the
significant software initiatives described above.

   Cash flow from financing activities amounted to $20.7 million during fiscal
2004. The primary uses of cash were for the $9.4 million paydown of the
revolving credit facility and pay down of a $4.0 million note payable. The note
was satisfied as part of a refinancing which provided $6.0 million of cash to
the Company. An additional $26.6 million was provided by the issuance of
preferred stock. Debt financing costs approximated $0.9 million.

   On June 30, 2004, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the sale of up
to $25 million of Series K Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series K Preferred")
through a private placement. Pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement entered
into on August 23, 2004, the Company sold, pending shareholder approval,
7,266,666 shares of Series K Preferred to investors for $1.50 per share and
received net proceeds of approximately $10.9 million. The issuance of the
Series K Preferred is subject to shareholder approval and is non-voting unless
it is converted into common stock. Additionally, shareholder approval is
required to increase the number of authorized shares of the Company's common
stock by an amount sufficient to provide for the issuance of all the preferred
shares. TH Lee Putnam Ventures and MCG Global, who control a majority of the
shares have agreed to vote for such approvals. The initial conversion price of
the Series K Preferred is $0.15 per common share, and, at the time the stock
purchase agreements were executed, assuming that the Series K Preferred were
issued and convertible then, each share of Series K Preferred was convertible
into ten shares of the Company's common stock. Both the conversion price and
the number of common shares into which the Series K Preferred is convertible
are subject to adjustment in order to prevent dilution. This sale of Series K
Preferred was deemed to have contained a beneficial conversion amounting to
$10.9 million which was recognized as a deemed dividend to preferred
shareholders. The Company began selling its Series K Preferred on August 23,
2004 and has not completed the sale of the total authorized Series K Preferred.
Upon the sale of any additional shares of Series K Preferred, the Company may
again be required to recognize a charge against net income (loss) available to
common shareholders to reflect beneficial conversion.

   On December 21, 2004, the Company signed a purchase agreement to raise
approximately $21 million of new equity capital investment. The investment is
initially in the form of a convertible note that will automatically convert
into Series M Convertible Preferred Stock upon approval of the transaction by
the Company's shareholders. The proceeds will be used for general working
capital needs consistent with financial budgets approved from time to time by
the Company's Board of Directors. The Preferred Series M Stock will accrue
cumulative PIK dividends equal to 6% per annum. In the event the Company's
shareholders do not approve the transaction, the interest rate will increase to
19%. As part of the transaction, the investors required that the Company's
charter be amended in a number or respects, including a requirement that, upon
shareholder approval for the transaction, all preferred shareholders
automatically convert their shares of preferred stock to common stock. In the
event of any liquidation or winding up of the Company, the holders of the
Preferred Series M will be entitled to a preference on liquidation equal to one
times (1x) the original purchase price of the Preferred Series M Stock plus
accrued and unpaid dividends. A consolidation or merger of the Company or a
sale of substantially all of its assets shall be treated as a liquidation for
these purposes.

   The investment will provide the Company with sufficient working capital
resources to provide for the anticipated liquidity needs for the fiscal year,
and to position the Company to accept definitive and available business with
existing and new customers by settling their respective concerns about the
Company's ability to service their respective business needs on a continuing
basis.

   As part of the above-described Series M private placement, the new investors
required that TH Lee Putnam Ventures ("THLPV") reach an agreement to extend,
for a two-year period, the July 1, 2004 capital contribution agreement
previously entered into between THLPV and the lenders. Under the terms of the
capital contribution agreement, in the event that THLPV elects to not provide
further financial support for the Company, THLPV is required to notify the
Company's lenders of such decision and provide specific levels of financial
support for a thirty (30) day period following the notification. In exchange
for entering into the capital contribution agreement, the lenders agreed to
waive certain financial covenants under the Company's credit facilities. At the
time, THLPV did not receive any compensation in exchange for entering into the
capital contribution agreement. As part of the extension of the capital
contribution agreement the Company agreed to issue to THLPV, subject to
shareholder approval, a warrant to purchase shares of common stock equal to 1%
of the fully diluted common stock of the Company on a fully converted basis.
The term of the warrant will be five years and will have an exercise price of
$0.0001. Due to the pricing of the warrant, the Company expects to take a
charge.

   On December 20, 2004, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the sale
of up to $7.0 million of Series L Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series L
Preferred") through a private placement. The purchaser will be

                                      19

<PAGE>

TH Lee Putnam Ventures and its related affiliates. The Company entered into a
Stock Purchase Agreement on December 21, 2004, pursuant to which the Company
will sell, pending shareholder approval, 7,000,000 shares of Series L Preferred
to investors for $1.00 per share for net proceeds of approximately $7.0
million. The consideration for the Series L will consist of cancellation of the
Company's obligation to repay the investor the funds paid by the investor to
the Company's senior lender to support the Company's revolving credit facility.
The issuance of the Series L Preferred is subject to shareholder approval and
is non-voting unless it is converted into common stock. Additionally,
shareholder approval is required to increase the number of authorized shares of
the Company's common stock by an amount sufficient to provide for the issuance
of all the preferred shares. The conversion price of the Series L Preferred is
$0.10 per common share, and, at the time the stock purchase agreements are
executed, assuming that the Series L Preferred were issued and convertible
then, each share of Series L Preferred will be convertible into ten shares of
the Company's common stock. Based on the pricing of the Series L Preferred, the
sale of Series L Preferred is expected to contain a beneficial conversion
amounting to $7.0 million which will be recognized as a deemed dividend to
preferred shareholders at the time of the sale and a charge against net income
(loss) available to common shareholders.

   The Company reported a loss from operations of approximately $44.3 million
for fiscal 2004 and has negative working capital of approximately $35.5 million
at July 3, 2004, which includes the classification of the revolving credit
facility as a current liability, and a reduction in Accounts Receivable
balances. At July 3, 2004, the Company had in place waivers of its financial
debt covenants related to its revolving credit facility and its senior
subordinated debt facility. Pursuant to the Company's receipt of $21.0 million
of investment capital, on December 21, 2004 the Company obtained waivers and
consents from its lenders. The lenders waived all existing defaults and delayed
the start date for the financial covenants for both minimum EBITDA and interest
coverage ratio until the earlier of January 1, 2007 and the date upon which the
(a) Company's EBITDA for each of two consecutive months equals or exceeds the
Company's fixed charges (interest expense and scheduled principal payments due
with respect to Money Borrowed) for the applicable month and (b) Availability
under the credit facility for each day of the immediately preceding thirty days
is greater than or equal to $1,000,000. The accompanying financial statements
have been prepared as if the Company will continue as a going concern.

   During fiscal 2003, an increasing portion of the Company's trade accounts
payable became past due. In an effort to restructure its trade debt, the
Company proposed a Trade Creditor Plan (the "Plan") to various trade creditors
with balances outstanding as of August 1, 2003. The Plan included approximately
20 percent of the Company's outstanding accounts payable, and was approved by a
majority of the creditors included in the Plan. It was enacted during the
second fiscal quarter. Approval of the plan offset a portion of the Company's
committed cash flow as it provided a vehicle for certain vendor balances to be
paid over a one to three year period. Vendors under this Plan have been
continuing to supply the Company with services and goods.

   During fiscal 2005, the Company intends to aggressively focus its efforts on
positive cash flow and continue improved operating performance. These
activities include, but are not limited to, implementation of the Company's
routing optimization software, maximization of the effectiveness of the
variable cost model, implementation of customer-driven technology solutions,
and improved leveraging of the consolidated back office SG&A platform.

   The Company maintains a revolving credit facility with Fleet Capital
Corporation that allows for borrowings up to the lesser of $42.5 million or an
amount based on a defined portion of receivables. Interest is payable monthly
at a rate of prime plus 1.25% (5.5% at July 3, 2004), or, at the Company's
election, at LIBOR plus 3.25%. As of July 3, 2004, the Company has 85% of the
facility usage under LIBOR contracts at an interest rate of 4.5%. In addition,
the Company is required to pay a commitment fee of 0.375% on unused amounts of
the total commitment, as defined in the agreement. The facility terminates on
December 31, 2006. The Company's accounts receivable have been pledged to
secure borrowings under the revolving note. The Company is subject to certain
restrictive covenants, the more significant of which include limitations on
dividends, acquisitions, new indebtedness and changes in capital structure. The
Company is also required to maintain financial covenants related to capital
expenditures and maintaining of minimum availability levels. The Company also
maintains a $6.0 million senior subordinated note with interest payable
quarterly at 15% per annum (to be reduced to 12%

                                      20

<PAGE>

upon the occurrence of certain events), with a quarterly principal repayment
schedule commencing January 2005 terminating with a final payment at October
31, 2007.

   Substantially all of the Company's assets have been pledged to secure
borrowings under the revolving credit facility and senior subordinated note.
The Company is subject to certain restrictive covenants under the agreements,
the more significant of which include limitations on capital asset
expenditures, dividends, acquisitions, new indebtedness in excess of $0.5
million and changes in capital structure. The Company is also required to
maintain the following financial covenants:

  .   Capital expenditures may not exceed $2.75 million and $3.0 million,
      respectively for the fiscal years ending July 3, 2004 and July 2, 2005.

  .   EBITDA must exceed $0.75 million, $2.0 million, $2.5 million, and $3.3
      million, respectively for the three month period ending January 1, 2005,
      the six month period ending April 2, 2005, and the six month period
      ending July 2, 2005, and each six month period thereafter.

  .   Interest Coverage ratios must exceed 1.2 to 1, 1.5 to 1, and 2.2 to 1,
      respectively for the three month period ending January 1, 2005; the six
      month period ending April 2, 2005; and the nine month period ending July
      2, 2005.

   At July 3, 2004, the Company had in place waivers of its financial debt
covenants related to its revolving credit facility and its senior subordinated
debt facility. These waivers are in effect through January 1, 2005; and
pursuant to the Company's December 2004 receipt of $21.0 million of investment
capital, the Company has finalized the extensions of the waivers for an
additional two years.

   On March 31, 2004 and July 1, 2004, the Company entered into the third and
fourth amendments, respectively, to the amended and restated revolving credit
facility with Fleet. The purpose of these amendments was to reset certain of
the financial covenants provided for in the agreement discussed above.

   In connection with amending and restating the revolving credit facility and
obtaining the senior subordinated note, the Company was required to obtain an
additional $25.2 million of investment capital. As part of this equity raise,
the Company borrowed $1.0 million during the first quarter from an individual
investor with an agreement to repay the principal and interest within 90 days.
During the second quarter, the indebtedness to the individual investor plus the
interest thereon as well as $0.1 million of other borrowings were converted to
Series I Convertible Preferred Stock.

   The company is continuing to pursue operational efficiencies through
conversion of employee drivers to independent contractors, will reduce its back
office workforce, and is pursuing savings in other areas. Through these
actions, the company expects operations to be cash flow positive in the second
half of fiscal 2005.

   The Company reviews the adequacy of its provision for bad debts on a regular
basis, taking into consideration customer payment trends, accounts receivable
balances that have been outstanding greater than 90 days, customer payment
trends in the transportation sector, and the strength of the overall economy.
At the end of the fiscal year the reserve for bad debts approximated $4.7
million.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

   As of the date of this Annual Report, the Company does not have any
off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a
current or future effect on the Company's financial condition, changes in
financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity,
capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors. The
term "off-balance sheet arrangement" generally means any transaction, agreement
or other contractual arrangement to which an entity unconsolidated with the
Company is a party, under which the Company has (i) any obligation arising
under a guarantee contract, derivative instrument or variable interest; or (ii)
a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to such entity or
similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support for
such assets.

   In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of
Variable Interest Entities (FIN No. 46), which requires the consolidation of
variable interest entities. FIN No. 46 is applicable to financial statements
issued by the Company beginning in fiscal 2004. However, disclosures are
required if the Company expects to consolidate any variable interest entities.

   During May 2004 the Company entered into a business venture designed to
provide both the manpower and the vehicle fleet to service, first--a major
customer and, subsequently--a growing market demand. This major customer's
desire to outsource its delivery operation and related vehicle fleet provided
the genesis for this new business venture, named Peritas. It was formed by MCG
Global, one of the Company's largest investors with a strategic objective to
acquire a fleet of vehicles and to lease such vehicles to Independent
Contractors ("ICs") to service outsourced customer business endeavors. When in
full operation, it is anticipated that the Peritas / Velocity arrangement will
be one where Velocity provides administrative services to Peritas for a fee and
Peritas provides vehicle leases to ICs interested in providing outsource
services to some customers on behalf of Velocity.

   Velocity provided for the initial purchase of $799,000 of customer vehicles,
for Peritas, with an offset against account receivable balances due from the
aforementioned customer. Peritas reimbursed Velocity for the full amount of the
purchase price during August 2004. Additional vehicles purchases amounting to
$854,000 have been subsequently made by Velocity on behalf of Peritas and
repaid.

   For the fiscal year ended July 3, 2004 the Company has consolidated the
operations of Peritas in accordance with FIN No. 46. Such operations provided a
minimal net income to Velocity of $27,000 on net sales of $36,000.

   During the second quarter of fiscal 2004 TH Lee Putnam Ventures, a major
investor in and related party to Velocity purchased 100% of Peritas from MCG
Global.

Risk Factors

Customer Contractual Commitments

   The Company's contracts with its commercial customers typically have a term
of one to three years, but are terminable upon 30 or 60 days notice. Although
the Company has no reason to believe that these contracts will be terminated
prior to the expiration of their terms, early termination of these contracts
could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial
condition and results of operations.

Highly Competitive Industry

   The market for same-day delivery and logistics services has been and is
expected to remain highly competitive. Competition is often intense,
particularly for basic delivery services. High fragmentation and low barriers
to entry characterize the industry. Other companies in the industry compete
with the Company not only for provision of services but also for qualified
drivers. Some of these companies have longer operating histories and greater
financial and other resources than the Company. Additionally, companies that do
not currently operate delivery and logistics businesses may enter the industry
in the future.

Claims Exposure

   As of July 3, 2004, the Company utilized the services of approximately 4,000
drivers and messengers. From time to time such persons are involved in
accidents or other activities that may give rise to liability claims. The
Company currently carries liability insurance with a per occurrence and an
aggregate limit of $15 million. Owner-operators are required to maintain
liability insurance of at least the minimum amounts required by applicable
state or provincial law. The Company also has insurance policies covering
property and fiduciary trust liability, which coverage includes all drivers and
messengers. There can be no assurance that claims against the Company, whether
under the liability insurance or the surety bonds, will not exceed the
applicable amount of coverage, that the Company's insurer will be solvent at
the time of settlement of an insured claim, or that the Company will be able to
obtain insurance at acceptable levels and costs in the future. If the Company
were to experience a material increase in the frequency or severity of
accidents, liability claims, workers' compensation claims or unfavorable
resolutions of claims, the Company's business, financial condition and results
of operations could be materially adversely affected. In addition, significant
increases in insurance costs could reduce the Company's profitability.

Certain Tax Matters Related to Drivers

   A significant number of the Company's drivers are currently independent
contractors (meaning that they are not its employees). From time to time,
federal and state taxing authorities have sought to assert that independent
contractor drivers in the same-day transportation and transportation industries
are employees. The Company does not pay or withhold federal or state employment
taxes with respect to drivers who are independent contractors. Although the
Company believes that the independent contractors the Company utilizes are not
employees under existing interpretations of federal and state laws, the Company
cannot guarantee that federal and state authorities will not challenge this
position or that other laws or regulations, including tax laws and laws
relating to employment and workers' compensation, will not change. If the IRS
were to successfully assert that the Company's independent contractors are in
fact its employees, the Company would be required to pay withholding taxes,
extend additional employee benefits to these persons and could be required to
pay penalties or be subject to other liabilities as a result of incorrectly
classifying employees. If drivers are deemed to be employees rather than
independent contractors, the Company could be required to increase their
compensation since they may no longer be receiving commission-based
compensation. Any of the foregoing possibilities could increase the Company's
operating costs and have a material adverse effect on its business, financial
condition and results of operations.


                                      23

<PAGE>

Local Delivery Industry; General Economic Conditions

   The Company's sales and earnings are especially sensitive to events that
affect the delivery services industry including extreme weather conditions,
economic factors affecting the Company's significant customers and shortages of
or disputes with labor, any of which could result in the Company's inability to
service its clients effectively or the inability of the Company to profitably
manage its operations. In addition, downturns in the level of general economic
activity and employment in the U.S. or Canada may negatively impact demand for
the Company's services.

Permits and Licensing

   Although certain aspects of the transportation industry have been
significantly deregulated, the Company's delivery operations are still subject
to various federal (U.S. and Canadian), state, provincial and local laws,
ordinances and regulations that in many instances require certificates, permits
and licenses. Failure by the Company to maintain required certificates, permits
or licenses, or to comply with applicable laws, ordinances or regulations could
result in substantial fines or possible revocation of the Company's authority
to conduct certain of its operations.

Dependence on Key Personnel

   The Company's success is largely dependent on the skills, experience and
performance of certain key members of its management. The loss of the services
of any of these key employees could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. The
Company's future success and plans for growth also depend on its ability to
attract and retain skilled personnel in all areas of its business. There is
strong competition for skilled personnel in the same-day delivery and logistics
businesses.

Dependence on Availability of Qualified Delivery Personnel

   The Company is dependent upon its ability to attract and retain, as
employees or through independent contractor or other arrangements, qualified
delivery personnel who possess the skills and experience necessary to meet the
needs of its operations. The Company competes in markets in which unemployment
is generally relatively low and the competition for owner-operators and other
employees is intense. The Company must continually evaluate and upgrade its
pool of available owner-operators to keep pace with demands for delivery
services. There can be no assurance that qualified delivery personnel will
continue to be available in sufficient numbers and on terms acceptable to the
Company. The inability to attract and retain qualified delivery personnel could
have a material adverse impact on the Company's business, financial condition
and results of operations.

Material Weakness

   In connection with the preparation of the Company's consolidated financial
statements for the year ended July 3, 2004 certain significant internal control
deficiencies became evident to management that, in the aggregate, represent
material weaknesses, including, inadequate staffing and supervision leading to
the untimely identification and resolution of certain accounting matters;
failure to perform timely cutoff and reviews, substantiation and evaluation of
certain general ledger account balances; inadequate procurement procedures;
lack of procedures or expertise needed to prepare all required disclosures; and
evidence that employees lack the experience and training to fulfill their
assigned functions. A material weakness is a significant deficiency in one or
more of the internal control components that alone or in the aggregate
precludes the Company's internal controls from reducing to an appropriately low
level the risk that material misstatements in its financial statements will not
be prevented or detected on a timely basis. If the Company is unable to correct
these weaknesses in a timely manner it may represent a risk.

   As part of the Company's year-end closing, expenses were identified which
may have a material impact on the reported results of prior fiscal quarters.
Management's attempts to accurately quantify the extent of the

                                      24

<PAGE>

required inter-quarter reclassification(s), and then to assess the need to
restate prior quarters' reported results, have been precluded from definitive
completion by the very weaknesses identified herein. As such, attempts to
completely quantify and accurately allocate quarter-specific amounts were not
possible, and therefore all fiscal year-end adjustments were recorded as part
of the Company's fourth quarter results. Corrections of the underlying
weaknesses have been identified, and annual fiscal results are fairly stated.

Volatility of Stock Price

   Prices for the Company's common stock will be determined in the marketplace
and may be influenced by many factors, including the depth and liquidity of the
market for the common stock, investor perception of the Company and general
economic and market conditions. Variations in the Company's operating results,
general trends in the industry and other factors could cause the market price
of the common stock to fluctuate significantly. In addition, general trends and
developments in the industry, government regulation and other factors could
have a significant impact on the price of the common stock. The stock market
has, on occasion, experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have
often particularly affected market prices for smaller companies and that often
have been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of the
affected companies, and the price of the common stock could be affected by such
fluctuations.

Fuel Costs

   The owner-operators utilized by the Company are responsible for all vehicle
expense including maintenance, insurance, fuel and all other operating costs.
The Company makes every reasonable effort to include fuel cost adjustments in
customer billings that are paid to owner-operators to offset the impact of fuel
price increases. If future fuel cost adjustments are insufficient to offset
owner-operators' costs, the Company may be unable to attract a sufficient
number of owner-operators that may negatively impact the Company's business,
financial condition and results of operations.

Capital Funding Requirements

   Achieving the Company's financial goals involves maximizing the
effectiveness of the variable cost model, the implementation of customer-driven
technology solutions and continued leverage of the consolidated back office
SG&A platform. To date, the Company has primarily relied upon debt and equity
investments to fund these activities. If its strategy requires additional
funding, the Company will continue to seek the required additional financing
from lenders or through the issuance of additional equity; however, there can
be no assurance that this funding can be obtained.

ITEM 7A.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

   The Company's operations are not currently subject to material market risks
for interest rates, foreign currency rates, or other market price risks.
However, the Company has revolving debt of $29.5 million at July 3, 2004 that
is subject to variable interest rates. A one percent change in the interest
rate would result in an impact of $295,000 on interest expense.

            Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Velocity Express Corporation and Subsidiaries

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Velocity
Express Corporation and subsidiaries as of July 3, 2004 and June 28, 2003, and
the related consolidated statements of operations, cash flows and shareholders'
equity for each of the three years in the period ended July 3, 2004. Our audits
also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15.
These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements and schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of
Velocity Express Corporation and subsidiaries at July 3, 2004, and June 28,
2003, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended July 3, 2004 in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Also, in our
opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation
to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all
material respects the information set forth therein.

                  Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


1.  DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

   Velocity Express Corporation (formerly known as United Shipping &
Technology, Inc.) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company",
"Velocity") are engaged in the business of providing same-day time-critical
logistics solutions to individual consumers and businesses. The Company
operates primarily in the United States with limited operations in Canada. The
Company currently operates in a single-business segment and thus additional
disclosures under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 131,
Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, are not
required.

   Reincorporation--On December 18, 2001, United Shipping & Technology, Inc.
reincorporated in Delaware through a merger with and into Velocity Express
Corporation. The merger was effective as of January 4, 2002 at which time
United Shipping & Technology, Inc. ceased to exist as a separate corporate
entity, and all of its assets and liabilities became the assets and liabilities
of Velocity Express Corporation. The name of the Company was changed to
Velocity Express Corporation.

2.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

   The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Velocity
Express Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The
consolidated financial statements also include Peritas as the result of FASB
Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities ("FIN No.
46").

Fiscal Year

   The Company's fiscal year ends the Saturday closest to June 30/th/. Each
quarter consists of a 13-week period ending on a Saturday. In fiscal years
consisting of 53 weeks, the final quarter will consist of 14 weeks. Fiscal 2004
was a 53 week year, 2003 and 2002 each consisted of 52 weeks.

Use of Estimates

   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

   Revenue from the same-day transportation and distribution/logistics services
is recognized when services are rendered to customers.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

   The Company places its cash with federally insured financial institutions.
At times, such cash balances may be in excess of the federally insured limit.
Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable is limited
due to the wide variety of customers to which the Company's services are sold
and the dispersion of those services across many industries and geographic
areas. Further, the Company does not have any one customer that accounts for
10% or more of its revenues. The Company performs credit evaluation procedures
on its customers and generally does not require collateral on its accounts
receivable. An allowance for doubtful accounts is reviewed periodically based
on management's evaluation of collectibility, historical experiences, and other
economic factors.

            Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Cash Equivalents

   All highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the
date of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents and are carried at cost,
which approximates market value.

Property and Equipment

   Property and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated over their
estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. The estimated useful
lives of buildings and leasehold improvements are 40 years or the life of the
lease and are three to seven years for furniture, equipment, vehicles and
computer software.

Long-Lived Assets

   The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or
circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
The Company evaluates potential impairment by comparing the carrying amount of
the assets with the estimated undiscounted cash flows associated with them. If
an impairment exists, the Company measures the impairment utilizing discounted
cash flows.

Goodwill

   The Company accounts for its goodwill in accordance with the provisions of
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets." Under these rules, goodwill and other intangible assets
deemed to have indefinite useful lives are no longer amortized but are subject
to impairment tests at least annually, or more frequently if circumstances
occur that indicate impairment may have occurred.

   The Company completed its annual goodwill impairment evaluation during 2004,
and concluded that no impairment existed.

Deferred Financing Costs

   Deferred financing costs relate to the cost incurred in the arrangement of
the Company's debt agreements and are being amortized using the straight-line
method over the terms of the related debt.

Income Taxes

   The Company accounts for income taxes following the provisions of SFAS No.
109, Accounting for Income Taxes. SFAS No. 109 requires that deferred income
taxes be recognized for the future tax consequences associated with differences
between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting
amounts at each year end, based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates
applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect
taxable earnings. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce
deferred tax assets to the amount more likely than not to be realized. The
effect of changes in tax rates is recognized in the period in which the rate
change occurs.

Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions

   Foreign assets and liabilities are translated using the year-end exchange
rate. Results of operations are translated using the average exchange rates
throughout the year. Translation gains or losses, net of applicable deferred
taxes, are accumulated as a separate component of shareholders' equity.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Comprehensive Income (Loss)

   The Company follows the provisions of SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive
Income, which establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive
income and its components. Comprehensive income (loss) is net earnings (loss)
plus certain other items that are recorded directly to shareholders' equity.
For the Company, comprehensive income (loss) represents net income (loss)
adjusted for foreign currency translation adjustments. Comprehensive income
(loss) is disclosed in the consolidated statement of shareholders' equity.

Stock Plans and Awards

   The Company follows Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting
for Stock Issued to Employees, in accounting for its employee stock options.
Pro forma net earnings and earnings per share are presented in Note 8 as if the
Company had adopted SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, as
amended by SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation--Transition
and Disclosure.

   In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation--Transition and Disclosure. SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS No. 123,
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to provide alternative methods of
transition for a voluntary change to the fair value-based method of accounting
for stock-based employee compensation and to require expanded and more
prominent disclosure about the method of accounting for stock-based employee
compensation and the effect of the method on reported results. The Company has
not adopted a method of transition to the fair value-based method of accounting
for stock-based employee compensation provided under SFAS No. 123 but rather,
follows APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and
related interpretations in accounting for its stock option plans. The following
table illustrates the effect on net loss and loss per share as if the Company
had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


   The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was developed for use in estimating
the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions and are
fully transferable. In addition, option-pricing models require the input of
highly subjective assumptions. Because the Company's employee stock options
have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and
because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the
fair value estimate, in management's opinion, the existing models may not
necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee
stock options. Under the forgoing assumptions, the weighted-average fair value
of each option granted during fiscal year 2003 and 2002 was $1.32 and $3.95,
respectively. There were no options granted in fiscal year 2004.

Reclassifications

   Certain reclassifications have been made to prior years' consolidated
financial statements to conform to the current year presentation.

New Accounting Pronouncements

   In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated
with Exit or Disposal Activities, effective for exit or disposal activities
initiated after December 31, 2002. SFAS No. 146 requires recording costs
associated with exit or disposal activities at their fair values when a
liability has been incurred. Under previous guidance, certain exit costs were
accrued upon management's commitment to an exit plan. The adoption of this
statement beginning in fiscal 2003 has not had a material impact on the
Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

   The Company adopted FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 45, Guarantor's Accounting
and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of
Indebtedness of Others, in fiscal 2003. FIN No. 45 provides guidance on the
recognition and disclosure of certain types of guarantees, including product
warranties. The adoption of this standard has not had a material impact on the
Company's consolidated financial statements.

   In January 2003, FIN No. 46 was issued, which requires the consolidation of
variable interest entities. FIN No. 46 is applicable to financial statements
issued by the Company beginning in fiscal 2004. However, disclosures are
required if the Company expects to consolidate any variable interest entities.
The Company has consolidated Peritas. [See footnote 5 Consolidated Financial
Interest Entity]

   In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial
Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity. SFAS No. 150
changes the accounting for certain financial instruments that, under previous
guidance, issuers could account for as equity. The new statement requires that
those instruments be classified as liabilities in statements of financial
position. Most of the guidance in SFAS No. 150 is effective for all financial
instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is
effective at the beginning of the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2003. This
Statement did not have any effect on the Company's consolidated financial
position, results of operations and cash flow.

3.  ACQUISITION

   On August 2, 2001, the Company completed certain purchase price adjustments
to a fiscal year 2000 merger agreement related to the acquisition of Velocity.
The purchase price adjustments provide for the discharge of certain
pre-acquisition insurance liabilities, principally the amount of the accruals
necessary for workers'

                                      36

                 VELOCITY EXPRESS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

            Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

compensation and auto insurance reserves of approximately $13.5 million as well
as certain other adjustments including litigation and customer loss accruals,
which had the impact of reducing specific liabilities by approximately $12.0
million. Additionally, under the terms of the settlement regarding the purchase
price, the Company was no longer liable for the convertible subordinated note
to CEX in the amount of $3.6 million, the long-term subordinated note to CEX of
$6.5 million, the short-term subordinated note to CEX of $4.4 million and the
accrued interest related to the notes of approximately $2.8 million. The
purchase price adjustments totaling approximately $42.8 million were recorded
as an offset to the goodwill in the Company's first quarter of fiscal 2002. In
the second quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company finalized all purchase price
adjustments associated with the amendment to the merger agreement resulting in
a reduction in the previously reported adjustment to goodwill of approximately
$3.1 million. In conjunction with the agreement pertaining to the purchase
price adjustments, the Company issued a five-year common stock warrant for
400,000 shares at an exercise price of $2.00 per share. The warrants were
issued for services rendered by two outside consultants, one of whom
subsequently was appointed Chairman of the Board of the Company. The fair value
of the warrants amounted to approximately $1.0 million and is included in other
expense in the statement of operations. The fair value was determined on date
of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model assuming expected
volatility of 121%, a risk-free interest rate of 4%, and an expected life of
five years.

   The acquisition has been accounted for using the purchase method of
accounting. Accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the net assets
acquired based upon their estimated fair values.

4.  RESTRUCTURING

   In connection with the acquisition of Velocity, management implemented a
plan to involuntarily terminate approximately 100 employees and to consolidate
certain facilities. Approximately $3.9 million in anticipated costs relating to
such items was included in the acquisition cost allocation. As of June 28,
2003, approximately $3.9 million in costs (primarily related to severance
payments and lease terminations) have been charged against the reserve and no
amounts related to such plan have been included in the determination of net
loss for the year.

   During fiscal 2004 the Company relocated its headquarters and financial
functions to Westport Connecticut from Minnesota. The costs of relocation,
employee acquisition, training and severance were recognized as period costs.
Approximately $243,000 of severance pay liability remains at July 3, 2004 and
has been accrued.

5.  CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INTEREST ENTITY

   During May 2004 the Company entered into a business venture designed to
provide both the manpower and the vehicle fleet to service, first--a major
customer and, subsequently--a growing market demand. This major customer's
desire to outsource its delivery operation and related vehicle fleet provided
the genesis for this new business venture, named Peritas. It was formed by MCG
Global, one of the Company's largest investors with a strategic objective to
acquire a fleet of vehicles and to lease such vehicles to Independent
Contractors ("ICs") to service outsourced customer business endeavors. When in
full operation, it is anticipated that the Peritas / Velocity arrangement will
be one where Velocity provides administrative services to Peritas for a fee and
Peritas provides vehicle leases to ICs interested in providing outsource
services to some customers on behalf of Velocity.

   Velocity provided for the initial purchase of $799,000 of customer vehicles,
for Peritas, with an offset against account receivable balances due from the
aforementioned customer. Peritas reimbursed Velocity for the full amount of the
purchase price during August 2004. Additional vehicles purchases amounting to
$854,000 have been subsequently made by Velocity on behalf of Peritas and
repaid.

   On January 25, 2002, the Company entered into a revolving credit facility
with Fleet Capital Corporation ("Fleet"), which replaced the credit facility
with GE Capital. Borrowings under the revolving note were limited to the lesser
of $40 million or an amount based on a defined portion of receivables. Interest
was payable monthly at a rate of prime plus 1.25% (5.25% at June 28, 2003), or,
at the Company's election, at LIBOR plus 3%. Further, the Company had the
ability to lower these margins by 0.5% over the remainder of the agreement
provided it met certain conditions as defined in the agreement. As of June 28,
2003, the Company had 81% of the facility under LIBOR contracts at interest
rates ranging from 4.25% to 4.375%. In addition, the Company was required to
pay a commitment fee of 0.375% on unused amounts of the total commitment, as
defined in the agreement. Commitment fees paid during fiscal 2004 and 2003 were
minimal. The facility was scheduled to mature January 2004, but amended as
discussed below.

   On November 26, 2003, the Company amended and restated the revolving credit
facility with Fleet and Merrill Lynch Capital. Borrowings under this new
arrangement are limited to the lesser of $42.5 million or an amount based on a
defined portion of receivables. Interest is payable monthly at a rate of prime
plus 1.25% (5.5% at July 3, 2004), or, at the Company's election, at LIBOR plus
3.25%. Further, these margins may be adjusted upward or downward 25 basis
points on an annual basis depending on the Company's achieving certain
conditions as defined in the agreement. As of July 3, 2004, the Company has 85%
of the facility usage under LIBOR contracts at an average interest rate of
4.5%. In addition, the Company is required to pay a commitment fee of 0.375% on
unused amounts of the total commitment, as defined in the agreement. Commitment
fees paid during fiscal 2004 and 2003 were minimal. The facility terminates on
December 31, 2006. Due to the characteristics of the revolving credit facility,
in accordance with current accounting pronouncements, the Company has
classified the amount outstanding under the revolving credit facility as a
current liability.

   In exchange for a long-term guarantee to provide additional collateral
support under the revolving note during the second quarter of fiscal 2002, the
Company agreed to compensate its largest investor by reducing the conversion
prices of the Series B and Series C Preferred. In conjunction with the
conversion price amendment, the Company recognized a $4.0 million charge,
representing the fair value of the benefit received by the investor as a result
of the reduction of the conversion prices, which was recorded as non-cash
interest expense.

   During fiscal year 2002 the Company entered into a senior subordinated note
with Bayview Capital which called for interest payable quarterly at 12% per
annum and was due September 30, 2004. The note was subordinate to the revolving
note. The initial carrying value of the senior subordinated note was reduced by
$1.7 million for the fair value of the common stock warrant issued to the
senior subordinated lender. The unamortized discount was $0.4 million at June
28, 2003, was being amortized over the remaining term of the note. As noted
below the note was paid on November 26, 2003. The unamortized balance of the
original issue discount was recognized as a period expense and reported as a
component of interest expense for the year ended July 3, 2004. The related
warrant has an exercise price of $6.71 per share and entitles the holder to
acquire, in whole or in part, 674,540 shares of the Company's common stock, as
adjusted to reflect certain anti-dilution rights as defined in the warrant
purchase agreement.

   On November 26, 2003, the Company entered into a new senior subordinated
note agreement with BET Associates, LP which replaced the senior subordinated
debt facility with the former lender, Bayview Capital. The initial carrying
value of the senior subordinated note was $6.0 million and was reduced by $0.6
million for the fair value of Series I Preferred Stock issued to the senior
subordinated lender. The unamortized discount was $0.5 million at July 3, 2004,
and is being amortized over the remaining term of the note. The Company also
incurred fees of $0.2 million, $0.1 million of which were satisfied through the
issuance of Series I Preferred Stock. These

                                      39

            Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

fees were recorded as deferred financing costs and will be amortized over the
life of the loan. The senior subordinated note has monthly interest payable 15%
per annum (to be reduced to 12% upon the occurrence of certain events), and
includes a requirement of quarterly principal repayments of $0.5 million
beginning January 31, 2005. Further, the Company is required to pay a service
fee of $5,000 per month related to the acquisition and management of the
indebtedness. The senior subordinated note is due October 31, 2007. The note is
subordinate to the revolving note.

   During fiscal years 2004, and 2003 the company amortized $1.2 million and
$1.0 million of deferred financing costs, respectively.

   Substantially all of the Company's assets have been pledged to secure
borrowings under the revolving credit facility and senior subordinated note.
The Company is subject to certain restrictive covenants under the agreements,
the more significant of which include limitations on capital asset
expenditures, dividends, acquisitions, new indebtedness in excess of $0.5
million and changes in capital structure. The Company has been required to
maintain the following financial covenants:

  .   Capital expenditures may not exceed $2.75 million and $3.0 million,
      respectively for the fiscal years ending July 3, 2004 and July 2, 2005.

  .   EBITDA must exceed $0.75 million, $2.0 million, $2.5 million, and $3.3
      million, respectively for the three month period ending January 1, 2005,
      the six month period ending April 2, 2005, and the six month period
      ending July 2, 2005, and each six month period thereafter.

  .   Interest Coverage ratios must exceed 1.2 to 1, 1.5 to 1, and 2.2 to 1,
      respectively for the three month period ending January 1, 2005; the six
      month period ending April 2, 2005; and the nine month period ending July
      2, 2005.

On March 31, 2004 and July 1, 2004, the Company entered into the third and
fourth amendments, respectively, to the amended and restated revolving credit
facility with Fleet. The purpose of these amendments was to reset certain of
the financial covenants, provided for in the agreement discussed above, that
the Company had at the time violated.

   As of July 3, 2004, the Company had in place waivers of its financial debt
covenants related to its revolving credit and its senior subordinated debt
facilities. Pursuant to the Company's receipt of $21.0 million of investment
capital, on December 21, 2004 the Company obtained waivers and consents from
its lenders. The lenders waived all existing defaults and delayed the start
date for the financial covenants for both minimum EBITDA and interest coverage
ratio until the earlier of January 1, 2007 and the date upon which the (a)
Company's EBITDA for each of two consecutive months equals or exceeds the
Company's fixed charges (interest expense and scheduled principal payments due
with respect to Money Borrowed) for the applicable month and (b) Availability
under the credit facility for each day of the immediately preceding thirty days
is greater than or equal to $1,000,000.

   In connection with amending and restating the revolving credit facility and
obtaining the senior subordinated note, the Company was required to obtain an
additional $25.2 million of investment capital. As part of this equity raise,
the Company borrowed $1.0 million during the first quarter from an individual
investor with an agreement to repay the principal and interest within 90 days.
During the second quarter, the indebtedness to the individual investor plus the
interest thereon as well as $0.1 million of other borrowings were converted to
Series I Convertible Preferred Stock.

Series J Convertible Preferred Stock

   In February 2004, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the sale of up
to $12.0 million of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series J Preferred")
through a private placement. Pursuant to Stock Purchase Agreements entered into
during March and April 2004, the Company contracted to issue, upon shareholder
approval, 3,088,126 shares of Series J Preferred to investors for $1.50 per
share for net proceeds of approximately $4.6 million. The issuance of the
Series J Preferred is subject to shareholder approval and is non-voting unless
it is converted into common stock. TH Lee Putnam Ventures & MCG Global, who
control a majority of the shares, have agreed to vote for such approvals.
Additionally, shareholder approval is required to increase the number of
authorized shares of the Company's stock by an amount sufficient to provide for
the issuance of all the preferred shares. The initial conversion price of the
Series J Preferred is $0.15 per common share, and, at the time the stock
purchase agreements were entered into, assuming that the Series J Preferred
were issued and convertible then, each share of Series J Preferred was
convertible into ten shares of the Company's common stock. Both the conversion
price and the number of common shares into which the Series J Preferred is
convertible are subject to adjustment in order to prevent dilution. The Series
J Preferred was deemed to have contained a beneficial conversion amounting to
$4.6 million which was recognized as a deemed dividend to preferred
shareholders. The Company began selling its Series J Preferred on March 30,
2004 and has completed the sale of the Series J Preferred in the first quarter
of fiscal 2005. Upon completion of the sale of the Series J Preferred, the
Company will be required to recognize a charge against net income (loss)
available to common shareholders of approximately $7.4 million to reflect the
beneficial conversion in the Series J Preferred.

Series I Convertible Preferred Stock

   In connection with the extensions of the revolving credit and senior
subordinated debt facilities in November 2003, the Company's Board of Directors
authorized the sale of up to $25.2 million in Series I Convertible Preferred
Stock ("Series I Preferred") through a private placement. Pursuant to Stock
Purchase Agreements entered into during October, November and December 2003,
the Company contracted to issue, upon shareholder approval, 16,809,987 shares
of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock for $1.50 per share for net proceeds of
approximately $24.6 million. The issuance of the Series I Preferred is subject
to shareholder approval and has voting rights on an as-converted basis unless
the resulting conversion results in the holder having, cumulatively, more than
40% of the voting stock of the Company. TH Lee Putnam Ventures & MCG Global,
who control a majority of the shares, have agreed to vote for such approvals.
Additionally, shareholder approval

is required to increase the number of authorized shares of the Company's stock
by an amount sufficient to provide for the issuance of all the preferred
shares. The initial conversion price of the Series I Preferred is $0.15 per
common share, and, at the time the stock purchase agreements were entered into,
assuming that the Series I Preferred were issued and convertible then, each
share of Series I Preferred was convertible into ten shares of the Company's
common stock. Both the conversion price and the number of common shares into
which the Series I Preferred is convertible are subject to adjustment in order
to prevent dilution. The Series I Preferred was deemed to have contained a
beneficial conversion amounting to $25.2 million which was recognized as a
deemed dividend to preferred shareholders.

Series H Convertible Preferred Stock

   The Company, while in the process of raising subordinated debt, authorized
the issuance of up to $5.0 million of its Series H Convertible Preferred Stock
("Series H Preferred"). The initial conversion price of the Series H Preferred
was $1.00 per common share, and is convertible into the Company's common stock
upon the later of shareholder approval or April 30, 2003. Both the conversion
price and the number of common shares into which the Series H Preferred is
convertible are subject to adjustment in order to prevent dilution.

   The Company sold 500,000 shares of Series H Preferred to investors for net
proceeds of approximately $4.6 million. In connection with the sales of Series
H Preferred, the Company issued five-year warrants to purchase 2.5 million
shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share. The proceeds
from the Series H Preferred were allocated based upon their relative fair
values between the warrants and the Series H Preferred resulting in an
allocation of $1.5 million from Series H Preferred to additional paid in
capital. The Series H Preferred was deemed to have contained a beneficial
conversion amounting to $0.9 million which was recognized as a deemed dividend
to preferred shareholders.

   The Series H Preferred contained a call provision that provided the Company
with the right to repurchase any or all of the shares of Series H Preferred at
a purchase price of $1.00 per share of common stock until the expiration of the
call provision on April 30, 2003. If the Company did not call the Series H
Preferred prior to the call date, the Company would be required to issue a
warrant to purchase additional shares of common stock. The Company did not
exercise its call right with respect to the Series H Preferred prior to its
expiration on April 30, 2003, and on May 1, 2003 issued 3.8 million warrants
with a five-year term and an exercise price of $0.01 per share to the holders
of the Series H Preferred. The fair value of these warrants determined on the
date of grant amounted to approximately $2.5 million and has been accounted for
on the date of their issuance as a deemed dividend to the preferred
shareholders which increased the accumulated deficit and additional paid in
capital.

Series G Convertible Preferred Stock

   In May 2002, the Company issued 5,865,331 shares of Series G Preferred for
net proceeds of $4.1 million. The initial conversion price of the Series G
Preferred was $3.75, and, at the time of issuance, each share of Series G
Preferred was convertible, upon shareholder approval, into 0.2 shares of the
Company's common stock. Both the conversion price and the number of common
shares into which the Series G is convertible are subject to adjustment in
order to prevent dilution.

Series F Convertible Preferred Stock

   During fiscal 2002, the Company issued 1,072,752 shares of Series F
Preferred for net proceeds of approximately $11.3 million. The initial
conversion price of the Series F Preferred was $2.75, and, at the time of
issuance, each share of Series F Preferred was convertible into four shares of
the Company's common stock. Both the conversion price and the number of common
shares into which the Series F is convertible are subject to adjustment in
order to prevent dilution. The Company also issued warrants to purchase 360,128
shares of

common stock with an exercise price of $3.60 per share in connection with these
sales. The warrants expire between July and November of 2006. The fair value of
the warrants as determined by an outside independent appraiser was determined
to be approximately $0.3 million and was charged to accumulated deficit. At
July 3, 2004, 740,339 shares of Series F Preferred are outstanding.

Series D Convertible Preferred Stock

   The Company entered into a bridge loan agreement dated January 4, 2001, and
a supplemental bridge loan agreement dated January 31, 2001 (collectively, the
"Bridge Loan Agreement"), pursuant to which the Company received $3.5 million
and $1.5 million, respectively. The indebtedness was represented by promissory
notes, payable on July 4, 2001, bearing interest at a rate of 18% per annum
(the "Bridge Notes"), which were convertible at the option of the lender into
909,090 shares of the Company's Series D Preferred at an exercise price of
$5.50 per share pursuant to the Bridge Loan Agreement, upon shareholder
approval of the conversion.

   The Company also entered into note purchase agreements in connection with
the issuance of promissory notes convertible into shares of Series D Preferred
(the "Subscription Notes"). During March and April 2001, the Company sold
Subscription Notes convertible into 624,906 shares of Series D Preferred to
accredited investors for an aggregate $5.0 million. Each Subscription Note was
convertible into shares of Series D Preferred at an effective purchase price of
$8.00 per share of Series D Preferred pursuant to the Subscription Notes.

   During fiscal 2002 at a special shareholders' meeting, the Company's
shareholders approved the conversion of the Bridge Notes and the Subscription
Notes that the Company entered into in fiscal 2001 into shares of Series D
Preferred, resulting in the issuance of 1,642,444 shares of Series D Preferred.
As a result of the conversion, the Company recorded a $4.7 million non-cash
interest charge. The initial conversion price of the Series D Preferred was
$4.00, and, at the time of issuance, each share of Series D Preferred was
convertible into two shares of the Company's common stock. Both the conversion
price and the number of common shares into which the Series D is convertible
are subject to adjustment in order to prevent dilution.

   The Company's Series D Preferred that resulted from the conversion of the
Subscription Notes was deemed to have contained beneficial conversion features
that were recognized as a deemed dividend to preferred shareholders. The value
of the proceeds allocated to the beneficial conversion feature was $2.7 million
and was recognized as a return to the preferred shareholders at the date of
shareholder approval since the Series D Preferred was immediately convertible.

   In connection with the Bridge Loan Agreement, the Company issued warrants to
purchase an aggregate 216,533 shares of Series D Preferred at a purchase price
of $0.01 per share (the "Bridge Warrants"). The warrants expire January 3,
2006. The fair value of the Bridge Warrants as determined by an outside
independent appraiser was approximately $0.9 million and was allocated from the
value received from the Series D Bridge Notes.

   In fiscal 2001, the Company entered into securities purchase agreements in
connection with the sale of Series D Preferred. The Company sold 252,429 shares
of Series D Preferred at $8.00 per share for approximately $2.0 million.

Series C Convertible Preferred Stock

   In September 2000, the Company issued 2,000,000 shares of its Series C
Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series C Preferred") at $6.00 per share for
total proceeds of $12.0 million and the cancellation of two warrants issued in
connection with the Series B Preferred. The initial conversion price of the
Series C Preferred was

$30.00, and, at the time of issuance, each share of Series C Preferred was
convertible into 0.20 shares of the Company's common stock. Both the conversion
price and the number of common shares into which the Series C is convertible
are subject to adjustment in order to prevent dilution.

   In connection with the issuance of the Series C Preferred the Company issued
warrants to purchase 825,484 shares of Series C Preferred at an exercise price
of $0.01 per share (the "Series C Warrants"). The warrants expire September 1,
2005. The fair value of the Series C Warrants as determined by an outside
independent appraiser was determined to be approximately $3.5 million and was
allocated from the value received from the Series C Preferred Stock. The $2.7
million remaining fair value received for the Series C Preferred in excess of
the Series C Preferred redemption value and the Series C Warrants was recorded
as additional paid-in capital.

Series B Convertible Preferred Stock

   In May 2000, the Company entered into an agreement to sell 2,806,797 shares
of the Company's Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series B
Preferred") at a price of $9.00 per share for a total of approximately $25.3
million. Three separate warrants were issued to the Series B Preferred
shareholders subject to approval at a special meeting of shareholders in August
2000. The fair value of the warrants issued with the Series B Preferred was
allocated from the carrying amount of the Series B Preferred to the respective
warrants at the August 2000 measurement date. The initial conversion price of
the Series B Preferred was $45.00, and, at the time of issuance, each share of
Series B Preferred was convertible into 0.20 shares of the Company's common
stock. Both the conversion price and the number of common shares into which the
Series B is convertible are subject to adjustment in order to prevent dilution.

   The Company agreed to issue with the preferred shares three warrants upon
the approval of the Company's shareholders. The terms of the three warrants
were as follows:

  .   A warrant to purchase the number of shares of Series B Preferred equal to
      an aggregate of $30 million divided by the 45-day average closing sales
      price of the Company's common stock immediately prior to the date of
      exercise. The fair value of this warrant as determined by an outside
      independent appraiser was determined to be approximately $4.4 million at
      the date of shareholder approval. In exchange for the Series C Warrants,
      the Company subsequently canceled this warrant.

  .   A warrant to purchase up to an aggregate of 452,901 shares of Series B
      Preferred at an exercise price of $9.00 per share, subject to adjustment
      in order to prevent dilution. The fair value of this preferred warrant as
      determined by an outside independent appraiser was determined to be
      approximately $0.6 million at the date of shareholder approval. In
      exchange for the Series C Warrants, the Company subsequently canceled
      this warrant.

  .   A warrant to purchase an aggregate of 85,000 shares of the Company's
      common stock. The warrant becomes exercisable on a pro rata basis in the
      event and to the extent that any of the 600,000 options granted under the
      Company's 2000 Stock Option Plan are exercised. The exercise price is
      equal to the lowest exercise price of the initially approved 2000 Plan
      options, subject to adjustment to prevent dilution. The fair value of
      this warrant as determined by an outside independent appraiser was
      determined to be approximately $0.4 million at the date of shareholder
      approval. The warrant expired on May 31, 2004.

   In September 2000, two of the warrants issued to the Series B Preferred
shareholders were exchanged as partial consideration for the Series C
Preferred. The remaining outstanding warrant issued with the Series B Preferred
provides for the purchase of an aggregate of 85,000 shares of the Company's
common stock. The

warrant becomes exercisable on a pro rata basis in the event and to the extent
that any of the 3,000,000 options granted under the Company's 2000 Stock Option
Plan ("2000 Plan") are exercised. The exercise price is equal to the lowest
exercise price of the initially approved 2000 Plan options, subject to
adjustment to prevent dilution. The warrant expired on May 31, 2004.

   The Company's Series B Preferred was deemed to have contained beneficial
conversion features that were recognized as a deemed dividend to preferred
shareholders. The value of the proceeds allocated to the beneficial conversion
feature was approximately $3.5 million and was recognized in fiscal 2000 as a
return to the preferred shareholders at the date of issuance since the Series B
Preferred is immediately convertible.

Preferred Warrants

   As described above in the sections entitled Series C Convertible Preferred
Stock and Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, the Company issued certain
warrants to purchase preferred stock to the Holders of both the Series C & D
Convertible Preferred Stock. The warrants are subject to adjustments to prevent
dilution under the same terms as the Series C & D Convertible Preferred Stock.

Common stock

   During fiscal 2004, the Company issued 3,743,470 shares, 324,242 shares and
791,822 shares of common stock as a result of shareholder conversions of Series
F Preferred, Series G Preferred and Series H Preferred, respectively.

   During fiscal 2004, the Company issued 42,500 shares of restricted common
stock to members of the board of directors for their service to the board. The
stock vests one year from the date of grant. The Company will amortize the
expense of approximately $44,570 in the statement of operations based on the
fair market value of the common stock as determined on the date of grant using
the closing price of the Company's common stock as quoted on the NASDAQ system
over the vesting period.

   During fiscal 2003, the Company issued 705,436 shares of common stock as a
result of shareholder conversions of Series F Preferred and 820,145 shares of
common stock as a result of shareholder conversions of Series D Preferred.

   During fiscal 2002, the Company issued 25,448 shares of common stock as a
result of shareholder conversions of Series F Preferred and 152,787 shares of
common stock as a result of shareholder conversions of Series D Preferred.

Stock Options and Warrants

   The Company currently sponsors the 1995 Stock Option Plan, the 2000 Stock
Option Plan and the 1996 Director Stock Option Plan. These plans provide for
the issuance of up to 2,670,996 shares. Options may be granted to employees,
directors and consultants. With the exception of the 2000 Stock Option Plan,
option prices are not less than the fair market value of the Company's common
stock on the date of grant. In the case of the 2000 Stock Option Plan,
non-statutory options may be granted at not less than 85% of the fair market
value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. The majority of the
options vest annually in equal amounts over a three-year period. The 2000 Stock
Option Plan also allows for the issuance of performance shares or restricted
stock. As of July 3, 2004, there were 42,500 shares of restricted stock
outstanding. No restricted stock or performance shares were outstanding as of
June 28, 2003 or June 29, 2002.

   On February 12, 2004, the Company issued 3,456,663 common stock warrants to
certain members of the Company's management. The warrants are initially
exercisable into one share of common stock per warrant, have an exercise price
of $0.01 per share and a term of seven years. Warrants granted in connection
with offers of employment are immediately exercisable upon their grant. All
other warrants granted are not exercisable until shareholder approval of their
issuance is obtained. Holders of such warrants have agreed to surrender these
warrants if shareholder approval of their issuance is not obtained in the next
annual shareholder meeting. These warrants, by their terms, provide for an
anti-dilution adjustment to the number of shares of common stock into which the
warrants are exercisable in the event that the Company issues other equity
instruments that would result in dilution to the holders of the warrants. In
the event the Company issues or sells any shares of common stock or securities
convertible into or exercisable for common stock for a consideration per share
of common stock of less than the market price of the common stock, determined
as of the date of the initial issue or sale, the exercise rate of the warrants
shall be proportionately adjusted to prevent dilution. As of July 3, 2004, each
warrant is exercisable into 1.097 shares of common stock. The fair value of the
warrants was approximately $2.6 million, which was included in compensation
expense in the statement of operations during the fiscal year. Further
expansion of the management team may result in additional warrant issuances and
related compensation charges.

   In fiscal 2003, the Company issued 30,000 common stock warrants at an
exercise price of $3.08 per share and 10,000 common stock warrants at an
exercise price of $8.25 per share to consultants in exchange for services
rendered. The term of the warrants is five years. The fair value of the
warrants was approximately $78,000 and was included in compensation expense in
the statement of operations.

Earnings Per Share

   Basic earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding by dividing net income or loss applicable to common
shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for
the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that
could occur if securities or other obligations to issue common stock such as
options, warrants or convertible preferred stock, were exercised or converted
into common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Company. For all
periods presented, diluted net loss per share is equal to basic net loss per
share because the effect of including such securities or obligations would have
been antidilutive.

   At July 3, 2004 the Company had net operating loss carry forwards for income
tax purposes of approximately $142.5 million, which expire 2005 through 2024.
Usage of a portion of the losses may be limited pursuant to Internal Revenue
Code Section 382.

   The change in the valuation allowance was an increase of $17.9 million, $4.9
million and $5.3 million in fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and
resulted principally from net operating loss carry forwards.

   Rent expense was $18.6 million, $15.5 million and $16.5 million during the
years ended July 3, 2004, June 28, 2003 and June 29, 2002, respectively.

Automobile and Workers' Compensation Liabilities

   The Company is partially self-insured for automobile, workers' compensation
and cargo claims. The Company has elected to retain a portion of expected
losses through the use of deductibles. Provisions for losses expected under
these programs are recorded based upon the Company's estimates of the aggregate
liability for claims incurred. These estimates include the Company's actual
experience based on information received from the Company's insurance carriers
and historical assumptions of development of unpaid liabilities over time. The
Company pre-funds this estimated liability on a monthly basis based upon
actuarial loss projections. As of July 3, 2004 and June 28, 2003, the Company
has deposits recorded of $6.3 million and $7.4 million, respectively.

   The Company has established reserves for automobile and workers'
compensation liabilities, which it believes, are adequate. The Company reviews
these matters, internally and with outside brokers, on a regular basis to
evaluate the likelihood of losses, settlements and litigation related expenses.
The Company has managed to fund settlements and expenses through cash flow and
believes that it will be able to do so going forward. There have not been any
losses that have differed materially from the accrued estimated amounts.

Litigation

   The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in the
ordinary course of their business. The Company determined the size of its legal
reserve with respect to these matters in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles based on management's estimate of the probable liability.
In the opinion of management, none of these legal proceedings or claims is
expected to have a material effect upon the Company's financial position or
results of operations. However, the impact on cash flows might be material in
the periods such claims are settled and paid.

11.  EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

   The Company has defined contribution retirement plans (the "Plans") in
accordance with Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. All full-time
employees of the Company and its subsidiaries are eligible to participate in
the Plans. Company contributions to these plans are discretionary. The Company
made no matching contributions for fiscal years 2004, 2003 or 2002.

12.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

   Mr. Vincent A. Wasik serves as the Company's Chief Executive Officer
pursuant to a Contractor Services Agreement, effective as of July 28, 2003,
between the Company and MCG Global LLC. Mr. Wasik is an owner and principal of
MCG Global LLC and was a shareholder and Chairman of the Board of the Company
at the time this Contractor Services Agreement was authorized and entered into.
The Service Agreement sets forth the rights and duties of both the Company and
Mr. Wasik and directs the Company's Compensation Committee to establish, on an
annual basis, Mr. Wasik's compensation level and eligibility for salary
increases, bonuses, benefits and grants of equity. The Service Agreement also
allows Mr. Wasik to contract to provide similar services to other businesses as
long as Mr. Wasik abides by his confidentiality obligations under the Service
Agreement. Furthermore, the Company has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless
MCG, its officers, directors, employees and agents, including Mr. Wasik, from
liabilities arising out of any services rendered by MCG to the Company, other
than as a result of gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Company also
agreed to cause

                                      50

                 VELOCITY EXPRESS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

            Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MCG and Mr. Wasik to be named as additional insured parties under its Directors
and Officers Liability insurance policies. The Service Agreement does not
contain any fixed term and may be terminated by either party at any time upon
written notice. Other than payment of outstanding fees and expenses owed to MCG
at termination, the Service Agreement does not contain any obligation upon the
Company to pay severance in the event the agreement is terminated by the
Company. During the fiscal year 2004, Mr. Wasik and MCG were reimbursed $31,535
and $107,535, respectively for expenses incurred on the Company's behalf. In
addition the Company paid $410,000 and issued $465,000 of Preferred Stock to
MCG in lieu of cash for continuing and specific services rendered in addition
to Mr. Wasik's compensation; of these amounts the Company recorded compensation
expense of $510,000 to Mr. Wasik through MCG for these services and the
remainder is recorded in SG&A for rent and management services. During fiscal
2004, the Company also reimbursed a major investor, TH Lee Putnam Ventures LLP
("THLPV") $46,125 for expenses incurred on the Company's behalf. THLPV also
provides the Company with a standby Letter of Credit guarantee of $7.5 million
in support of the Company's revolving credit facility.

   The Company has a business relationship with Peritas, LLC ("Peritas"), a
vehicle rental company wholly owned by THLPV. Peritas was initially formed and
owned by MCG Global, LLC. The founder and principal of MCG Global LLC is
Vincent Wasik, the Chairman of the Board and CEO of the Company. MCG
established Peritas to accommodate the Company's need for the Peritas services
pending a new owner. Neither MCG nor Mr. Wasik has received any revenue,
compensation or benefit from short term ownership or management of Peritas and
Peritas was transferred to THLPV for no compensation or consideration. The
business of Peritas is to rent delivery vehicles to independent contractors who
perform services for the Company and other companies. On May 24, 2004, the
Company and Peritas entered into an Agency Agreement whereby the Company acts
as an agent for Peritas for the purposes of vehicle rentals. The term of the
agreement is for twelve months. The services performed by the Company under the
Agency Agreement include, renting the vehicles to independent contractors,
maintenance of the vehicles and collecting the rental fees and delivering the
fees to Peritas. Under the Agency Agreement, the Company receives a 10%
commission of all rental revenues and a reimbursement of any vehicle related
expenses. To date, the Company has collected rental revenues and received
commissions. The Company's Audit Committee approved the business relationship
between the Company and Peritas. [See footnote 5 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
INTEREST ENTITY]

   In fiscal 2003, the Company issued $0.2 million of Series H Preferred as
compensation for these services.

   In fiscal 2002, the Company granted a total of 245,000 warrants to purchase
common stock. 200,000 of the warrants are five-year common stock warrants with
an exercise price of $2.00 per share. The fair value of the warrants was
determined on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model,
assuming expected volatility of 121%, a risk-free interest rate of 4%, and
expected life of five years. The remaining 45,000 warrants are five-year
warrants, having an exercise price of $8.10 per share, and were priced at fair
market value on the date of grant based on the closing price of the Company's
common stock as quoted on the NASDAQ system. Cash and warrant-based
compensation for these services amounted to $1.8 million in fiscal 2002.

13.  LIQUIDITY

   The Company reported a loss from operations of approximately $44.3 million
for fiscal 2004; and, has negative working capital of approximately $35.5
million at July 3, 2004, primarily due to the classification of the revolving
credit facility as a current liability, and the write-off of certain Accounts
Receivable balances.

   On March 31, 2004 and July 1, 2004, the Company entered into the third and
fourth amendments, respectively, to the amended and restated revolving credit
facility with Fleet. The purpose of these amendments was to reset certain of
the financial covenants provided for in the agreement discussed above. In
connection with amending and restating the revolving credit facility and
obtaining the senior subordinated note, the Company was

                                      51

                 VELOCITY EXPRESS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

            Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

required to obtain an additional $25.2 million of investment capital. As part
of this equity raise, the Company borrowed $1.0 million during the first
quarter from an individual investor with an agreement to repay the principal
and interest within 90 days. During the second quarter, the indebtedness to the
individual investor plus the interest thereon as well as $0.1 million of other
borrowings were converted to Series I Convertible Preferred Stock.

   At July 3, 2004, the Company had in place waivers of its financial debt
covenants related to its revolving credit facility and its senior subordinated
debt facility. These waivers are in effect through January 1, 2005; and
pursuant to the Company's receipt of $21.0 million of investment capital [See
footnote 14 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS], on December 21, 2004 the Company obtained
waivers and consents from its lenders. The lenders waived all existing defaults
and delayed the start date for the financial covenants for both minimum EBITDA
and interest coverage ratio until the earlier of January 1, 2007 and the date
upon which the (a) Company's EBITDA for each of two consecutive months equals
or exceeds the Company's fixed charges (interest expense and scheduled
principal payments due with respect to Money Borrowed) for the applicable month
and (b) Availability under the credit facility for each day of the immediately
preceding thirty days is greater than or equal to $1,000,000.

14.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

  .   New Equity Investment

   On December 21, 2004, the Company signed a purchase agreement to raise
approximately $21 million of new equity capital investment. The investment is
initially in the form of a convertible note that will automatically convert
into Series M Convertible Preferred Stock upon approval of the transaction by
the Company's shareholders. The proceeds will be used for general working
capital needs consistent with financial budgets approved from time to time by
the Company's Board of Directors. The Preferred Series M Stock will accrue
cumulative PIK dividends equal to 6% per annum. In the event the Company's
shareholders do not approve the transaction, the interest rate will increase to
19%. As part of the transaction, the investors required that the Company's
charter be amended in a number of respects, including a requirement that, upon
shareholder approval for the transaction, all preferred shareholders
automatically convert their shares of preferred stock to common stock. In the
event of any liquidation or winding up of the Company, the holders of the
Preferred Series M will be entitled to a preference on liquidation equal to one
times (1x) the original purchase price of the Preferred Series M Stock plus
accrued and unpaid dividends. A consolidation or merger of the Company or a
sale of substantially all of its assets shall be treated as a liquidation for
these purposes.

   The investment will provide the Company with sufficient working capital
resources to provide for the anticipated liquidity needs for the fiscal year;
and to position the Company to accept definitive and available business with
existing and new customers by settling their respective concerns about the
Company's ability to service their respective business needs on a continuing
basis.

  .   Warrant to Purchase Common Stock

   As part of the above-described Series M private placement, the new investors
required that TH Lee Putnam Ventures ("THLPV") reach an agreement to extend,
for a two-year period, the July 1, 2004 capital contribution agreement
previously entered into between THLPV and the lenders. Under the terms of the
capital contribution agreement, in the event that THLPV elects to not provide
further financial support for the Company, THLPV is required to notify the
Company's lenders of such decision and provide specific levels of financial
support for a thirty (30) day period following the notification. In exchange
for entering in to the capital contribution agreement, the lenders agreed to
waive certain financial covenants under the Company's credit facilities. At the

                                      52

            Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

time, THLPV did not receive any compensation in exchange for entering into the
capital contribution agreement. As part of the extension of the capital
contribution agreement the Company agreed to issue to THLPV, subject to
shareholder approval, a warrant to purchase shares of common stock equal to 1%
of the fully diluted common stock of the Company on a fully converted basis.
The term of the warrant will be five years and will have an exercise price of
$0.0001. Due to the pricing of the warrant, the Company expects to take a
charge.

  .   Series L Convertible Preferred Stock

   On December 20, 2004, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the sale
of up to $7.0 million of Series L Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series L
Preferred") through a private placement. The purchaser will be TH Lee Putnam
Ventures and its related affiliates. The Company entered into a Stock Purchase
Agreement on December 21, 2004, pursuant to which the Company will sell,
pending shareholder approval, 7,000,000 shares of Series L Preferred to
investors for $1.00 per share for net proceeds of approximately $7.0 million.
The consideration for the Series L will consist of cancellation of the
Company's obligation to repay the investor the funds paid by the investor to
the Company's senior lender to support the Company's revolving credit facility.
The issuance of the Series L Preferred is subject to shareholder approval and
is non-voting unless it is converted into common stock. Additionally,
shareholder approval is required to increase the number of authorized shares of
the Company's common stock by an amount sufficient to provide for the issuance
of all of the preferred shares. TH Lee Putnam Ventures and MCG Global, who
control a majority of the shares have agreed to vote for such approvals. The
conversion price of the Series L Preferred is $0.10 per common share, and, at
the time the stock purchase agreements are executed, assuming that the Series L
Preferred were issued and convertible then, each share of Series L Preferred
will be convertible into ten shares of the Company's common stock. Based on the
pricing of the Series L Preferred, the sale of Series L Preferred is expected
to contain a beneficial conversion amounting to $7.0 million which will be
recognized as a deemed dividend to preferred shareholders at the time of the
sale and a charge against net income (loss) available to common shareholders.

  .   Peritas LLC

   During November 2004, the Company's Consolidated Financial Interest Entity
was purchased by TH Lee Putnam Ventures from MCG Global. The Company will
continue, on a forward basis, to enjoy a strategic relationship with Peritas
pursuant to customer service and business development. As TH Lee Putnam
Ventures is a significant investor in the Company, the business relationship
and extent of interactivity will hereafter be disclosed along with related
party transactions. The future need to consolidate Peritas as a part of the
Company's financial statements will be determined based upon the requirements
as set forth in FIN No. 46.

  .   Issuance of Series K Preferred Stock

   On June 30, 2004, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the sale of up
to $25 million of Series K Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series K Preferred")
through a private placement. Pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement entered
into on August 23, 2004, the Company sold, pending shareholder approval,
7,266,666 shares of Series K Preferred to investors for $1.50 per share and
received net proceeds of approximately $10.9 million. The issuance of the
Series K Preferred is subject to shareholder approval and is non-voting unless
it is converted into common stock. Additionally, shareholder approval is
required to increase the number of authorized shares of the Company's common
stock by an amount sufficient to provide for the issuance of all the preferred
shares. TH Lee Putnam Ventures and MCG Global, who control a majority of the
shares have agreed to vote for such approvals. The initial conversion price of
the Series K Preferred is $0.15 per common share, and, at the time the stock
purchase agreements were executed, assuming that the Series K Preferred were
issued and convertible then, each share of Series K Preferred was convertible
into ten shares of the Company's common stock. Both the conversion price and
the number of common shares into which the Series K Preferred is convertible
are subject

to adjustment in order to prevent dilution. This sale of Series K Preferred was
deemed to have contained a beneficial conversion amounting to $10.9 million
which was recognized as a deemed dividend to preferred shareholders at the time
of the sale. The Company began selling its Series K Preferred on August 23,
2004. On December 21, 2004, the Company sold 2,584,800 additional shares of
Series K Preferred for net proceeds of approximately $3.9 million to complete
its sales of Series K Preferred. Upon completion of the sale of the Series K
Preferred in the second fiscal quarter of 2005, the Company will be required to
recognize a charge against net income (loss) available to common shareholders
of approximately $3.9 million to reflect the beneficial conversion in the
Series K Preferred.

ITEM 9.  CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND
        FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

   Not applicable.

ITEM 9A.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

   The Company's Audit Committee and its Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer (the "Certifying Officer") have evaluated the effectiveness
of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as
defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this annual report on
Form 10-K. Based on this evaluation, the Certifying Officer concluded that
these disclosure controls and procedures were deficient to ensure that the
information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (as amended) is accurate, and is recorded,
processed, summarized and reported within the requisite time periods.
Deficiencies resulted from the Company's relocation of its finance function
during the second half of the fiscal year, and substantial management and staff
turnover, resulting in the loss of operations and process knowledge.

   In connection with the preparation of the Company's consolidated financial
statements for the year ended July 3, 2004 certain significant internal control
deficiencies became evident to management that, in the aggregate, represent
material weaknesses, including, inadequate staffing and supervision leading to
the untimely identification and resolution of certain accounting matters;
failure to perform timely cutoff and reviews, substantiation and evaluation of
certain general ledger account balances; inadequate procurement procedures;
lack of procedures or expertise needed to prepare all required disclosures; and
evidence that employees lack the experience and training to fulfill their
assigned functions. A material weakness is a significant deficiency in one or
more of the internal control components that alone or in the aggregate
precludes the Company's internal controls from reducing to an appropriately low
level the risk that material misstatements in its financial statements will not
be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

   As part of the Company's year-end closing, expenses were identified which
may have a material impact on the reported results of prior fiscal quarters.
Management's attempts to accurately quantify the extent of the required
inter-quarter reclassification(s), and then to assess the need to restate prior
quarters' reported results, have been precluded from definitive completion by
the very weaknesses identified herein. As such, attempts to completely quantify
and accurately allocate quarter-specific amounts were not possible, and
therefore all fiscal year-end adjustments were recorded as part of the
Company's fourth quarter results. Corrections of the underlying weaknesses have
been identified, and annual fiscal results are fairly stated.

   At the direction of the Audit Committee, management has continued to review
how the deficiencies in internal control occurred and will proceed
expeditiously with its existing plan to enhance internal controls and
procedures, which it believes addresses each of the issues. The Company plans
to add financial expertise with the hiring of an experienced Controller to
provide hands-on oversight of the monthly financial closing, data analysis,
account reconciliation and cutoff. The Company has also designated specialists
in its Billings & Collections group to work hand-in-hand with problem accounts
to ensure that billings are rendered in a timely and appropriate fashion for
timely customer processing and payment. This group also spearheads problem
resolution. In addition, the Company has moved to purge inactive accounts from
its vendor file and has implemented a system of invoice processing and approval
built upon multiple levels of active and passive reviews starting with
system-required authorized vendor numbers and ending with review by an
authorized signer.

   Cash Compensation.  The Company has not paid any cash compensation to a
director in his or her capacity as a director and has no present plan to pay
directors' fees.

   Stock Options and Restricted Stock.  In February 1996, the Company adopted
its 1996 Director Stock Option Plan. Until February 2002, each outside director
was granted an option to purchase 3,000 shares of Common Stock for each year of
service as a director. The term of each option granted under the plan was five
years and the exercise price per share for stock granted under the plan was
100% of the fair market value per share on the date on which the respective
option was granted.

   Effective February 2002 on an annual basis, each director was granted 4,000
options, and the Chairman of the Board was granted an additional 2,000 options.
Audit and Executive Committee members were granted 2,000 options, Compensation
Committee members were granted 1,000 options, and Executive IT Committee
members were granted 1,500 options. The chairperson of each committee received
an additional 1,000 options. The term of each option granted under the plan was
five years and the exercise price per share for stock granted under the plan
was 100% of the fair market value per share on the date on which the respective
option was granted.

   Effective September 2002, directors and committee members were granted, on
an annual basis, shares of restricted stock as compensation for board and
committee service. The shares vested one year from the date of grant of the
restricted stock. Directors were awarded 4,000 shares, and the Chairman of the
Board was granted an additional 2,000 shares. Audit and Executive Committee
members were granted 2,000 shares, Compensation Committee members were granted

   Effective May 2004, directors and committee members are granted, on an
annual basis, shares of restricted stock as compensation for board and
committee service. The shares will vest one year from the date of grant of the
restricted stock. The number of shares of restricted stock is to be determined
by dividing the amount of compensation by the closing price of the Company's
common stock on the date of grant according to the following compensation
schedule. Directors are awarded $25,000, and the Chairman of the Board is
granted an additional $12,500. Audit Committee members are granted $25,000.

                         COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT

   The following is the report of the compensation committee of the board
describing compensation policies and rationales applicable to the Company's
executive officers with respect to the compensation paid to such executive
officers for the fiscal year ended July 3, 2004.

   Compensation Philosophy.  The philosophy of the Company's compensation
committee regarding executive compensation is to link executive pay to
corporate performance. A significant portion of executive compensation is tied
to the Company's success in meeting one or more specified performance goals and
to appreciation in the Company's market valuation. The goals of the
compensation program are to attract and retain highly talented executives and
to motivate them to high levels of performance, recognizing the different
impact that various executives have on the achievement of corporate goals.

   The key elements of the executive compensation are generally base salary,
annual bonus (dependent on corporate and individual performance) and stock
options. The compensation committee approves compensation and pay levels as
well as stock option grants to executive officers.

   Base Salaries.  Base salaries for executive officers are determined by
evaluating the responsibilities of the position and the experience of the
individual. Base salaries are reviewed annually, and are adjusted based upon
performance contribution, management recommendation and market conditions.

   Bonus.  Some of the Company's executive officers are eligible for an annual
cash bonus. Individual and corporate performance objectives are established at
the beginning of each year, and eligible executives are assigned target bonus
levels. In fiscal 2004, no executive officers received cash bonus payments. A
number of executive officers did receive, as a bonus and incentive, warrants to
purchase shares of the Company's common stock.

   Stock Options.  The purpose of the Company's stock option plans is to
provide an additional incentive to certain employees of the Company to work to
maximize stockholder value. Option grants with short-term vesting are used to
reward past performance while option grants with long-term vesting are awarded
to encourage employees to take into account the long-term interests of the
Company, align employees' and shareholders' interests, as well as to create a
valuable retention device for key employees. Stock options are typically
granted at the time of hire, at the time of promotion or at the time of
achievement of a significant corporate objective.

   Compensation of Chief Executive Officer.  The compensation committee
approved the compensation of Vincent Wasik for fiscal 2004 by way of an
agreement between the Company and MCG Global, LLC. Mr. Wasik is an owner and
principal of MCG Global, LLC. Compensation in fiscal 2004 under the agreement
amounted to $510,000. The compensation committee determined the Chief Executive
Officer's compensation after considering the same factors used to determine the
compensation of other executive officers.

   Summary.  It is the opinion of the compensation committee that the executive
compensation policies and programs in effect for the Company's executive
officers provide an appropriate level of total remuneration that properly
aligns the Company's performance and interests of the Company's shareholders
with competitive executive compensation in a balanced and reasonable manner.

Contracts and arrangements with Related Parties

   The Company has entered into Contractor Services Agreement (the "agreement")
with MCG Global, LLC and its related entities ("MCG"), effective as of July 27,
2003 under which Vincent A. Wasik provides all services as Chief Executive
Officer of the Company. Vincent A. Wasik was a shareholder and Chairman of the
Board of the Company at the time the agreement was entered into. The agreement
provides that the Compensation Committee on an annual basis shall establish the
compensation for these services. In fiscal 2004, the Company recorded
compensation expense of $510,000 for these services.

   The Company subleases a portion of its headquarters office space in Westport
Connecticut from MCG. The sublease agreement was approved by the Company's
Audit Committee who determined that the terms of the sublease were at market
rates. The Company also reimburses MCG for limited use of MCG's personnel and
for office expenses.

   The Company has a business relationship with Peritas, LLC ("Peritas"), a
vehicle rental company wholly owned by TH Lee Putnam Ventures ("THLPV").
Peritas was initially formed and owned by MCG Global, LLC.

                                      82

<PAGE>

The founder and principal of MCG Global LLC is Vincent Wasik, the Chairman of
the Board and CEO of the Company. MCG established Peritas to accommodate the
Company's need for the Peritas services pending a new owner. Neither MCG nor
Mr. Wasik has received any revenue, compensation or benefit from short term
ownership or management of Peritas and Peritas was transferred to THLPV for no
compensation or consideration. The business of Peritas is to rent delivery
vehicles to independent contractors who perform services for the Company and
other companies. On May 24, 2005, the Company and Peritas entered into an
Agency Agreement whereby the Company acts as an agent for Peritas for the
purposes of vehicle rentals. The term of the agreement is for twelve months.
The services performed by the Company under the Agency Agreement include,
renting the vehicles to independent contractors, maintenance of the vehicles
and collecting the rental fees and delivering the fees to Peritas. Under the
Agency Agreement, the Company receives a 10% commission of all rental revenues
and a reimbursement of any vehicle related expenses. To date, the Company has
collected rental revenues and received commissions. The Company's Audit
Committee approved the business relationship between the Company and Peritas.

   THLPV provides the Company with a standby Letter of Credit guarantee of $7.5
million in support of the Company's revolving credit facility.

Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit
Services Provided by the Company's Independent Auditors

   The Audit Committee is responsible for appointing, setting compensation for
and overseeing the work of the independent auditors. The Audit Committee has
established a policy for pre-approving the services provided by the Company's
independent auditors in accordance with the auditor independence rules of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. This policy requires the review and
pre-approval by the Audit Committee of all audit and permissible non-audit
services provided by the independent auditors and an annual review of the
financial plan for audit fees.

   To ensure that auditor independence is maintained, the Audit Committee
annually pre-approves the audit services to be provided by the independent
auditors and the related estimated fees for such services, as well as the
nature and extent of specific types of audit-related, tax and other non-audit
services to be provided by the independent auditors during the year.

   As the need arises, other specific permitted services are pre-approved on a
case-by-case basis during the year. A request for pre-approval of services on a
case-by-case basis must be submitted by the Company's Chief Financial Officer,
providing information as to the nature of the particular service to be
provided, estimated related fees and management's assessment of the impact of
the service on the auditor's independence. The Audit Committee will not
delegate to management the pre-approval of services to be performed by the
