                      AMENDED AND RESTATED EAGLE PASS LEASE

         THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED EAGLE PASS LEASE dated February 20, 2003 for
reference purposes ("Lease"), is entered into by and between JERRY AND VICKIE
MOYES, whose address is P.O. Box 29243, Phoenix, Arizona 85038-9243 ("Landlord")
and CENTRAL FREIGHT LINES, INC. whose address is P.O. Box 2638, Waco, Texas
76702-2638 ("Tenant").

Background. In February, 2003, in connection with a $65 million refinance
mortgage loan to Southwest Premier Properties, L.L.C. ("SPP") from Zions
National Bank (the "Loan"), Landlord, as an accommodation pledgor, pledged as
collateral one of the three properties subject to the Underlying Lease, as
defined below, making it necessary to split the three properties into two
leases. The underlying lease was executed March 2, 1998 covering the following
three properties: Eagle Pass, TX; Temple, TX, and Fort Worth, TX ("Underlying
Lease"). The Temple, TX property was sold to a third party, and is no longer
subject to the Underlying Lease or to this Lease. With respect to the Eagle Pass
property that is the subject of this Lease, this Amended and Restated Eagle Pass
Lease replaces and supplements the Underlying Lease. As of the date hereof, the
parties also have entered into an Amended and Restated Fort Worth Lease that
replaces and supplements in its entirety the Underlying Lease.

ability and business experience to own and operate the business located on the
Property and has a good business reputation.

         Upon any such permitted assignment or transfer, Tenant (and any
previous assignee) shall remain fully liable hereunder and shall not be released
from the performance of any remaining obligations of Tenant under his Lease
during the remainder. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord not later than five (5)
days before the effective date thereof, a duplicate original of such assignment
together with the assumption agreement by the assignee.

         SECTION 18.02. Any assignment of sublease which may hereafter be made
by Tenant with Landlord's approval shall provide that it is expressly made
subject to the terms, covenants, provisions and conditions of this Lease and is
subordinate thereto, and shall prohibit prepayment

                                       10

<PAGE>

of rent thereunder (including security) in an amount exceeding three (3) months
rent. Landlord will issue non-disturbance agreements to subtenants requesting
same in writing, provided their respective subleases are commercially reasonable
terms.

         SECTION 18.03. Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord, effective upon the
occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder, and so long as such Default
remains uncured, as collateral security for the performance of all obligations
of Tenant under this Lease, any sublease created by Tenant and each and every
amendment, modification or extension thereof. In no event shall such assignment
impose upon Landlord any duty or obligation to perform any of the obligations of
Tenant as sub-landlord under any such lease or subleases. After default by
Tenant, Landlord may collect the rents and subrents from any and all subtenants
or occupants and apply the net amount collected to the net rent under this
Lease, but no such collection by landlord will be deemed to be a waiver of any
agreement, term, covenant, or condition of this Lease by Landlord, nor the
acceptance by Landlord of any subtenant or occupant, as Tenant.

         SECTION 18.04. Notwithstanding any provision of this Article 18,
Tenant's interest in this Lease may be assigned with Landlord's written consent.
Provided, however, upon any such assignment, Tenant (and any previous assignee)
shall remain fully liable hereunder and shall not be released from the
performance of any remaining obligations of Tenant under this Lease during the
remainder of the term.

                                   ARTICLE 19

                                TENANT'S DEFAULTS

         SECTION 19.01. The occurrence of any one or more of the following
events (herein sometimes called "Events of Default") shall constitute a material
default and breach of this Lease by Tenant:

                  (a)      Failure to make in the due and punctual payment of
any rent, or in the payment of any other sums required to be paid by Tenant
under this Lease when and as the same shall become due and payable; or

                  (b)      Failure by Tenant to perform of or compliance with
any of the covenants, agreements, terms or conditions contained in this Lease
other than those referred to in the foregoing subdivisions (a), and the
continuation of such default for a period of thirty (30) days after written
notice thereof form Landlord to Tenant (provided, that if Tenant proceeds with
due diligence during such thirty (30) day period to cure such default and is
unable by reason of the nature of the work involved, to cure the same within the
said thirty (30) days, its time to do so shall be extended for such additional
period as shall be necessary to cure the same); or

                  (c)      The filing by Tenant of a voluntary petition in
bankruptcy or the adjudication of Tenant as a bankrupt or insolvent, or taking
by Tenant of the benefit of any relevant debtors or the filing by Tenant of any
petition or answer seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition,
readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief for itself under

                                       11

<PAGE>

any present or future federal, state or other consent to or acquiesce in the
appointment of any trustee, receiver or liquidator of Tenant or all or any
substantial part of its properties, or the making by Tenant of any general
assignment for the benefit of creditors; or

                  (d)      The filing against Tenant of a petition seeking any
reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution
or similar relief under any present or future federal, state or other statute,
law or regulation which petition shall remain undismissed or unstayed for an
aggregate of sixty (60) days, or if any trustee, receiver or liquidator of
Tenant, or of all or any substantial part of its properties, shall be appointed
without the consent or acquiescence of Landlord and such appointment shall
remain unvacated or unstayed for an aggregate of sixty (60) days.

         In the event of any such Event of Default, this Lease and the term
herein stated and all rights of Tenant under this Lease at the option of the
Landlord shall expire and terminate.

         SECTION 19.02. Upon any such termination of this Lease, Tenant shall
quit and peacefully surrender the Property to Landlord and the buildings and
improvements thereon shall automatically be and become the property of Landlord
free and clear of any claims of Tenant. At any time on or after such
termination, Landlord may without further notice, enter upon the Property by
force, summary proceedings, ejectment or otherwise, and dispose and remove
Tenant therefrom.

         SECTION 19.03. In such event of termination, Landlord shall be entitled
to accelerate the rent to recover from Tenant all unpaid installments of rent
and other sums due and owing under this Lease for the remainder of the term and
all other damages incurred by Landlord by reason of Tenant's default, including
but not limited to any or all of the following:

                  (a)      The cost of recovering possession of the Property,
including attorney's fees and court costs;

                  (b)      Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for
all the determent proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its
obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be
likely to result therefrom; and

                  (c)      Any other amounts and remedies permitted by law. All
remedies are cumulative and are not alternate or singular.

         SECTION 19.04. At any time (a) written fifteen (15) days prior to the
expiration of the term of this Lease, or (b) after Landlord or Tenant shall have
been served any notice of termination of this Lease, but prior to the date of
termination, or (c) after Landlord shall have commenced a proceeding to recover
possession of the Property, but prior to the termination of this Lease, all
subleases theretofore executed by or assigned to Tenant and the rents payable
thereunder, at the option of Landlord (such option to be exercised by notice to
Tenant), shall be deemed assigned and transferred by Tenant to Landlord. Such
assignment and transfer shall be effect without execution by Tenant of any
instrument. However, Tenant at Landlord's request, shall execute, acknowledge
and deliver to Landlord an instrument or instruments, in recordable

                                       12

<PAGE>

form, confirming such assignment and transfer, and in the event that Tenant
shall fail or refuse to execute, acknowledge or deliver such instrument,
Landlord, in addition to any other rights and remedies, may as the
attorney-in-fact of Tenant, execute, acknowledge and deliver it, and Tenant
hereby irrevocably nominates, constitutes and appoints Landlord Tenant's proper
and legal attorney-in-fact for such purpose, coupled with an interest, hereby
ratifying all that Landlord may do in such capacity.

         SECTION 19.05. Tenant, for and on behalf of itself and all persons
claiming through or under Tenant waives any and all right of redemption or
reentry or repossession or to restore the operation of this Lease in case Tenant
shall be dispossessed by a judgment or by warrant of any court or judge or in
case of expiration or termination of this Lease. The terms "enter", "reenter",
"entry" or "reentry", as used in this Lease, are not restricted to their
technical legal meaning.

         SECTION 19.06. No failure by Landlord to insist upon the strict
performance of any covenant, agreement, term or condition of this Lease or to
exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof, and no acceptance
of full or partial rent during the continuance of any such breach, shall
constitute a wavier of any such breach or of such covenant, agreement, term of
condition. No covenant, agreement, term of condition of this Lease to be
performed or complied with by Landlord or Tenant, and no breach thereof, shall
be waived, altered or modified, except by a written instrument executed by the
party to be charged therewith. No waiver of any breach shall affect or alter
this Lease, but each and every covenant, agreement, term, and condition of this
Lease shall continue in full force and effect with respect to any other then
existing or subsequent breach thereof.

         SECTION 19.07. In the event of any breach by Tenant of any of the
covenants, agreements, terms or conditions contained in this Lease, Landlord
shall be entitled to enjoin such breach and shall have the right to invoke any
right and remedy allowed at law or in equity for such breach as through
re-entry, summary proceedings, and other remedies were not provided for in this
Lease. In the event of Tenant's failure to pay rent on the date when due, Tenant
shall pay Landlord interest on any such overdue payments at the lessor of its
maximum interest rate then permitted by Texas law or fifteen percent (15%) per
annum.

               END OF TERM, INTEREST ON DEFAULT, AND LATE CHARGES

         SECTION 20.01. All rent in arrears and all amounts collectible
hereunder shall bear interest at the lessor of (i) fifteen percent (15%) per
annum or (ii) the maximum rate then permitted by Texas law, from their
respective due dates until paid, provided that this shall in no way limit,
lesson or affect any claim for damages by Landlord for any breach or default by
Tenant.

         SECTION 20.02. Tenant hereby acknowledges that late payment by Tenant
to Landlord of rent and other sums due hereunder will cause Landlord to incur
costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be
extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but

                                       13

<PAGE>

are not limited to processing and accounting charges, and late charges which may
be imposed on Landlord by the terms of any mortgage or trust deed covering the
Property.

                                  SEVERABILITY

         SECTION 21.01. If any term of provision of this Lease or the
application thereof to any person or circumstances shall, to any extent, be
invalid or unacceptable, the remainder of this Lease, or the application of such
term or provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is
held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term and
provision of this Lease shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent
permitted by law.

                  SECTION 32.01 This Lease shall be subject and subordinate at
all times to the lien of existing mortgages and of mortgages which hereafter may
be made a lien on the Premises. Although no instrument or act on the part of the
Tenant shall be necessary to effectuate such subordination, the Tenant will
nevertheless execute and deliver such further instruments subordinating this
Lease to the lien of any such mortgages as may be desired by the mortgagee. The
Tenant hereby irrevocably appoints the Landlord his attorney-in-fact to execute
and deliver any such instrument for the Tenant. Provided, however, and
notwithstanding the foregoing provisions hereof, upon foreclosure of the
mortgage with the mortgagee succeeding to the rights of the Landlord, the Tenant
shall, at the option of said mortgagee, attorn to the mortgagee as follows:

                  (a)      Tenant shall be bound to the mortgagee under all the
terms of the Lease for the balance of the term hereof remaining with the same
force and effect as if the mortgagee were the Landlord under the Lease, and
Tenant hereby attorns to the mortgagee as its Landlord, such attornment to be
effective and self-operative, without the execution of further instrument on the
part of either of the parties hereto, and immediately upon the mortgagee
succeeding to the

                                       17

<PAGE>

interest of Landlord under this lease and having given written notice of the
same to Tenant. The respective rights and obligations of Tenant and of the
mortgagee upon such attornment shall to the extent of the remaining term of the
lease be the same as now set.

                  (b)      The mortgagee shall be bound to the Tenant under all
of the terms of this Lease, and the Tenant shall, from and after such event,
have the same remedies against the mortgagee for the breach of an agreement
contained in this Lease that the Tenant might have had under this Lease against
the Landlord hereunder. In no event, however, shall the mortgagee be liable for
any act or omission of any prior Landlord, be subject to any offsets or defenses
which Tenant might have against any prior Landlord, or be bound by any rent or
additional rent which the Tenant might have paid to any prior Landlord for more
than the current month.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Amended and
Restated Eagle Pass Lease effective as of the day and year first above written.

                          Employment Duties of Employee

         The Company hereby hires the Employee to serve the Company as Chief
Executive Officer. The Employee does hereby accept such employment and agrees to
perform the duties required of him in such capacity faithfully, industriously

provided, however, that such duties shall specifically provide for the Employee
to be the Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

                                    Section 2

                               Place of Employment

                     Time to be Devoted to Company Business

         The Employee shall give his best endeavors to the discharge of his
duties hereunder with undivided loyalty, devoting substantially all of his

person, firm or corporation, other than the Company, to interfere with the
performance of his duties to the Company.

as herein provided, the Company agrees to pay the Employee an annual salary of

but not less than one pro-rated payment monthly. The Employee's base
compensation may be increased but may not be decreased, by merit raises in an
amount to be determined annually by the Board of Directors of the Company, and
to be based upon an annual review of Employee's performance by the Board of
Directors of the Company.

                                Performance Bonus

         As additional compensation to the Employee for the services to be
performed by the Employee as herein provided, the Employee shall be eligible to
participate in the annual bonus plan as set forth on Appendix A, attached hereto
and incorporated herein (the "Annual Bonus Plan"); provided, however, that in
the year the Employee ceases to be employed by the Company on a full-time basis,
the Employee's participation in the Annual Bonus Plan shall be pro-rated and
calculated as follows: the bonus that the Employee would have been entitled to
receive if the Employee had been employed by the Company on the last day of that
year, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of
days in that year that the Employee was employed by the Company on a full-time
basis, and the denominator of which shall be 365.

                                    Section 6

                               Granting of Equity

         The Company shall cause its parent company, Central Freight Lines,
Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Parent"), to grant to the Employee an option to
purchase 1,260,000 shares of the Parent's Class A Common Stock (the "Option
Shares"), for a period of 10 years from the Commencement Date (as defined in
Section 7 of this Agreement), at a price of $1.35 per share. The Employee's
right to purchase the Option Shares shall vest 50% on the Commencement Date,
with the remaining 50% vesting 20% per year beginning with the first anniversary
of the closing date of the initial public offering of the Parent's Class A
Common Stock, all as more specifically described in a Stock Option Agreement to
be entered into by the Parent and the Employee.

                                Term of Agreement

is employed by the Company.

         (ii)     The Employee may be terminated at any time upon payment of two
years' salary at the then current level. The removal of the Employee as Chief
Executive Officer of the Company, or a material adverse change in his
responsibilities, shall constitute a termination for the purposes of this
Agreement. In no event, however, shall the Employee be entitled to receive the
payment described in this Section 7(ii) if the Employee voluntarily terminates
his employment with the Company.

                                    Section 8

                                    Insurance

         During the term of the Employee's employment, the Company will pay the
premiums on two life insurance polices, one $4,000,000 term policy and one
$1,000,000 whole-life policy, owned by the Employee; provided, however, that in
no event shall the Company's obligation to pay such premiums exceed $7,000 per
policy per year unless approved by the Board of Directors of the Company.

                                    Section 9

                                 Indemnification

         The Company shall indemnify and hold the Employee harmless from and
against any and all claims, demands, suits, expenses (including attorneys'
fees), judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement of claims of any kind, and
all other liabilities of any kind which arise by reason of the fact that the
Employee is or was an officer, director, employee or agent of the Company, or is
or was serving on behalf of the Company as a director, officer, employee or
agent of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise, during any period of time from and after the Commencement Date. Such
indemnification by the Company shall extend to the full extent permitted by law
so long as the Employee acted in good faith. Such indemnification shall not
extend to acts of the Employee which constitute bad faith or a willful breach of
trust in the performance of his duties hereunder or acts of the Employee which
are criminally illegal. The indemnification provided herein is in addition to
and not in substitution for, any indemnification provided the Employee by any
other document executed by the Company or any other person or entity. The rights
of the Employee under this Section 9 shall not be limited to the life of this
Agreement.

         This Agreement and the Interest Purchase Agreement and the Secured
