On January 20, 2010, the registrant issued a press release announcing its
upcoming participation in the Stifel Nicolaus 2010 Transportation and
Logistics Conference on Wednesday, February 10, 2010 and the 25th Annual

A live audio webcast of each presentation and the investor materials
provided by the registrant at each conference will be available to the
public on the respective conference date on the registrant's internet
website: www.werner.com, under the "Investor Information" link. The
investor materials and replays of the webcast presentations will also be
publicly available on such website for a limited period following each
particular conference date. Details concerning the conferences, investor
materials, webcasts 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 provided
by and the oral public statements made by a representative of the
registrant during the aforementioned conference presentations and webcasts
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 and made pursuant to the
safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995, as amended. Such forward-looking statements are based on information
presently available to the registrant's management and are current only as
of the date made. 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 and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
quarterly period ended March 31, 2009. For those reasons, undue reliance
should not be placed on any forward-looking statement. 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 or as may be required by applicable securities law. 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.
