On May 11, 2009, the registrant issued a press release announcing its
upcoming participation in the 2nd Annual Wolfe Research Global
Transportation Conference in New York City, New York on Tuesday May 19,

Form 8-K.
The investor materials and a live audio webcast of the presentation
provided at the Wolfe Research conference will be publicly available on
such conference date on the registrant's internet website: www.werner.com,
under the "Investor Information" link. The investor materials provided at
the KeyBanc conference will be publicly available on this website on the
day prior to such conference date. Replays of the Wolfe Research
conference webcast and the investor materials from each conference will
also be publicly accessible on the registrant's website for a limited
period following each respective conference. Details concerning the
conferences, investor materials, webcast and replays are included in the
exhibit.
In accordance with General Instruction B.2 to the Form 8-K, the information
under this Item 7.01 and the press release exhibit to this Form 8-K shall
not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the
liabilities of that Section 18, nor shall such information and exhibit be
deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Exchange Act or
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), unless the
registrant expressly states that such information and exhibit are to be
considered "filed" under the Exchange Act or incorporates such information
and exhibit by specific reference in an Exchange Act or Securities Act
filing.
This current report on Form 8-K, as well as the investor materials and the
oral public statements made by a representative of the registrant during
the aforementioned conference presentations and webcast announced in this
Form 8-K and the related press release, may contain forward-looking
statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and
Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Such forward-looking statements are based
on information currently available to the registrant's management and are
current only as of the date made. For that reason, undue reliance should
not be placed on any such forward-looking statement. Actual results could
also differ materially from those anticipated as a result of a number of
factors, including, but not limited to, those discussed in the registrant's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. The
registrant assumes no duty or obligation to update or revise any forward-
looking statement, although it may do so from time to time as management
believes is warranted. Any such updates or revisions may be made by filing
reports with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, through the
issuance of press releases or by other methods of public disclosure.
