2. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying ~~Consolidated Financial Statements~~consolidated financial statements include the accounts of YRC Worldwide and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. We report on a calendar year basis. The quarters of ~~the Regional Transportation companies (with the exception of New Penn)~~Holland and Reddaway consist of thirteen weeks that end on a Saturday either before or after the end of March, June and September, whereas all other ~~operating segment~~companies’ quarters end on the natural calendar quarter end. ~~For ease of reference, the calendar quarter end dates are used herein.~~

We make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. We have prepared the Consolidated Financial Statements, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In our opinion, we have made all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods included in these financial statements. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted from these statements pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. Accordingly, the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements included

Revenue Disaggregation

We considered the disclosure requirements for revenue disaggregation guidance in ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and noted that our ~~segments disaggregate~~business transformation has led to one consolidated LTL network as we joined our national and regional operations and no longer measure revenues based on geographic and time-based factors as our Regional Transportation segment carriers operate in a smaller geographic footprint and have a shorter length of haul as compared to our YRC Freight segment. For additional information, see the “Business Segments” footnote to the consolidated financial statements.by geographies. The following table presents disaggregated revenue by revenue source between LTL shipments and total. LTL shipments are defined as shipments less than 10,000 ~~pounds. Beginning~~pounds that move in ~~2019, the Company disaggregated revenue for reporting of key operating metrics, including volume and yield metrics, due to the impacts from shipments over 10,000 pounds.~~

~~Newly-Adopted Accounting Standards~~

~~In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-02,~~ ~~Leases~~, which requires lessees to recognize a right-to-use asset and a lease obligation for all leases. Additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures, including significant judgments made by management, are required. The new standard became effective for the Company for its annual reporting period beginning January 1, 2019, including interim periods within that reporting period. The Company adopted the standard using a modified retrospective approach with the effective date of the standard as the date of initial application.

The Company elected the package of three practical expedients which allows entities to not reassess initial direct costs, lease classification for existing or expired leases, and lease definition for existing or expired contracts as of the effective date of January 1, 2019. Additionally, the Company did not elect the hindsight method practical expedient which would have allowed us to reassess lease terms and impairment. For leases with a term of twelve months or less, the Company has made an accounting policy election in which the right of use lease (“ROU”) asset and lease liability will not be recognized on the consolidated balance sheet. The Company does not separate lease and non-lease components for its revenue equipment and real property leases. The Company reassessed the accounting for debt financing obligations under the new standard and determined the historical accounting remained appropriate under the new standard.

~~The adoption of this standard impacted~~ our consolidated balance sheet through the recognition of $378.8 million in ROU assets and liabilities as of January 1, 2019. Lease deposits in the amount of $25.4 million were reclassified from assets to a reduction of long-term ROU liabilities upon adoption of the new standard.network.

US Treasury Loan

On July 7, 2020, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, as guarantors (the “Term Guarantors”), entered into the UST Tranche A Term Loan Credit Agreement (the “Tranche A UST Credit Agreement”) with The Bank of New York Mellon, as administrative agent and collateral agent and the UST Tranche B Term Loan Credit Agreement (the “Tranche B UST Credit Agreement” and together with the Tranche A UST Credit Agreement, the “UST Credit Agreements”) with The Bank of New York Mellon, as administrative agent and collateral agent, pursuant to which the United States Treasury (“UST”) committed to an aggregate of $700.0 million to the Company pursuant to the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The obligations of the Company under the UST Credit Agreements are unconditionally guaranteed by the Term Guarantors.

The UST Credit Agreements have maturity dates of September 30, 2024, with a single payment at maturity of the outstanding balance. The Tranche A UST Credit Agreement consists of a $300.0 million term loan and bears interest at a rate of Eurodollar rate (subject to a floor of 1.0%) plus a margin of 3.5% per annum, consisting of 1.50% in cash and the remainder paid-in-kind. Proceeds from the ~~difference between total rent payment~~Tranche A UST Credit Agreement will primarily be used to meet the Company’s contractual obligations and maintain working capital. The Tranche B UST Credit Agreement consists of a $400.0 million term loan and bears interest at a rate of Eurodollar rate (subject to a floor of 1.0%) plus a margin of 3.5% per annum, paid in cash. Proceeds from the Tranche B UST Credit Agreement will be used predominantly for the acquisition of tractors and trailers. Each agreement requires that the Company must maintain minimum “Liquidity” (defined in the UST Credit Agreements to indicate that such amount is calculated ~~principal amortization~~as the Company’s unrestricted cash on hand plus the amount of “Availability” (as defined in the loan agreement for the ABL Facility (as defined below)) to the extent such Availability could be borrowed under the ABL Facility) of $125.0 million and a minimum Adjusted EBITDA commencing with the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2021, to be not less than $100.0 million for the four quarters ending December 31, 2021, $150.0 million for the four quarters ending March 31, 2022, and $200.0 million thereafter. Obligations under the UST Credit Agreements are secured by a perfected first priority security interest in the escrow or controlled account supporting the respective UST Credit Facility, certain tractors and trailers (in the case of the UST Tranche B Credit Facility) and a perfected junior priority security interest (subject in each case to permitted liens) in substantially all other assets of the Company and the Term Guarantors, subject to certain exceptions.

The UST Credit Agreements will be funded through a series of draws made over time as the proceeds are utilized for the purposes outlined by the agreements. Borrowings are subject to the various requirements stated in the UST Credit Agreements. As of September 30, 2020, $245.0 million of funds have been drawn on the Tranche A Credit Agreement and 0 funds have been drawn on the Tranche B UST Credit Agreement. The funds drawn after September 30, 2020 on the Tranche B UST Credit agreement are further described in the “Subsequent Events” footnote to the consolidated financial statements.

The Company issued 15,943,753 shares of common stock as consideration related to the UST Credit Agreements, which has impacted both the capital surplus and common stock, for the par value per share. Accordingly, the fair value of those shares at issuance of approximately $46.7 million was recorded as a commitment fee that will be amortized into interest expense on a straight-line basis over the ~~life~~term of ~~lease agreements.~~

the availability of the UST funds, which ends on September 30, 2024. The Company classified the unamortized commitment fee both as a non-current asset, included within other assets, and as a reduction to long-term debt and financing, less current portion, for the remaining balance associated with the undrawn UST funds and the drawn UST funds, respectively, on our consolidated balance sheet. Prospectively, as the Company draws funds, a portion of the commitment fee will be reclassified from other assets to a reduction to long-term debt and financing, less current portion, based on the amount of UST funds drawn compared to total UST funds available. As of September 30, 2020, a total of $15.4 million of unamortized commitment fees are classified as a reduction to long-term debt and financing and the residual balance of $28.6 million remains in other assets.

The shares issued to the UST are subject to a Voting Trust Agreement (the “Voting Trust Agreement”) entered on July 9, 2020 which provides that all shares of the Company’s common stock owned by the UST shall be delivered to a voting trust and voted in proportion as all other common stock shares are voted, subject to certain exceptions defined therein. Additionally, prior to one year after the date of the Voting Trust Agreement, the shares may not be transferred without either the Company’s consent or other certain exceptions defined therein.

As a result of entering into the UST Credit Agreements, the Company incurred $12.2 million in debt issuance costs for the origination, legal and related fees. The debt issuance costs will be amortized into interest expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the UST funds, which ends September 30, 2024. The Company classified the debt issuance costs both as a non-current asset, included within other assets, and as a reduction to long-term debt and financing, less current portion, for the remaining balances associated with the undrawn UST Funds and the drawn UST funds, respectively, on our consolidated balance sheet. Prospectively, as the Company draws funds, a portion of the debt issuance costs will be reclassified from other assets to a reduction to long-term debt and financing, less current portion, based on the amount of UST funds drawn compared to total UST funds available. As of September 30, 2020, a total of $4.1 million of unamortized debt issuance costs are classified as a reduction to long-term debt and financing and the residual balance of $7.4 million remains in other assets.

Adjusted EBITDA, defined in our UST Credit Agreements and the New Term Loan

Agreement (defined below), as amended, (collectively, the “TL Agreements”) as “Consolidated EBITDA,” is a measure that reflects our earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization expense, and is further adjusted for, among other things, letter of credit fees, equity-based compensation expense, net gains or losses on property disposals, restructuring charges, transaction costs related to issuances of debt, non-recurring consulting fees, non-cash impairment charges, integration costs, severance, non-recurring charges, the gains or losses from permitted dispositions, discontinued operations, and certain non-cash expenses, charges and losses (provided that if any of such non-cash expenses, charges or losses represents an accrual or reserve for potential cash items in any future period, the cash payment in respect thereof in such future period will be subtracted from Adjusted EBITDA in such future period to the extent paid). Certain expenses that qualify as adjustments are capped at 10.0% of the trailing-twelve-month Adjusted EBITDA, in aggregate. Adjustments subject to the 10.0% cap include, but are not limited to, restructuring charges, integration costs, severance, and non-recurring charges. Additionally, all net gains from the disposition of properties are excluded from the definition of Adjusted EBITDA. Therefore any gains previously recognized in Adjusted EBITDA, as that term was previously defined in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), in accordance with its definition in the Prior Term Loan Agreement, will not be included in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA under the UST Credit Agreements.

New Term Loan

On September 11, 2019, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, as guarantors (the “Term Guarantors”), amended and restated the existing credit facilities under the credit agreement dated February 13, 2014 (the “Prior Term Loan Agreement”) and entered into a $600.0 million term loan agreement (“New Term Loan”) with funds managed by Apollo Global Management, LLC acting collectively as lead lender, and Cortland Products Corp, as administrative agent and collateral agent. The obligations of the Company under the agreement governing (the “New Term Loan Agreement”) are unconditionally guaranteed by the Term Guarantors.

The New Term Loan has a maturity date of June 30, 2024, with a single payment due at maturity of the outstanding balance. The New Term Loan ~~bears~~initially bore interest at ~~LIBOR~~Eurodollar rate (subject to a floor of 1.0%) plus a margin of 7.5% per annum, payable at least quarterly in cash, subject to a 1.0% margin step down in the event the Company achieves greater than $400.0 million in trailing-twelve-month Adjusted ~~EBITDA (defined in the New Term Loan Agreement as “Consolidated EBITDA”).~~EBITDA. Obligations under the New Term Loan are secured by a perfected first priority security interest in (subject to permitted liens) assets of the Company and the Term Guarantors, including but not limited to all of the Company’s wholly owned terminals, tractors and trailers, subject to certain limited exceptions.

~~The~~

On April 7, 2020, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into Amendment No. 1 (the “First New Term Loan ~~eliminated~~Amendment”) to the ~~total maximum leverage ratio covenant that the Company was subject to under the Prior~~New Term Loan Agreement as a result of expected future covenant and ~~introduced a new covenant that requires~~liquidity tightening due to unprecedented economic deterioration. Beginning the ~~Company maintain a minimum trailing-twelve-month Adjusted EBITDA~~last two weeks of ~~$200.0 million, measured quarterly.~~March 2020, our industry and the economy at-large experienced an unexpected and significant decline in economic activity due to the impact of the 2019 novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) and the resulting business shutdown and shelter-in-place orders made across North America by various governmental entities and private enterprises. The First New Term Loan ~~is subject~~Amendment principally provided additional liquidity allowing the Company to ~~repayment~~defer quarterly interest payments for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 and the quarter ending June 30, 2020 with almost all of such interest to be paid-in-kind. The First New Term Loan Amendment also provided for a waiver with respect to the Consolidated EBITDA financial covenant during each fiscal quarter during the fiscal year ending December 31, 2020. The interest rate was retroactively reset to a fixed 14% during the first six months of 2020.

On July 7, 2020, the Company and the Term Guarantors entered into Amendment No. 2 (the “Second New Term Loan Amendment”) to the New Term Loan Agreement. The material terms of the Second New Term Loan Amendment include, among other things, ~~100.0%~~a consent to the refinancing and conforming changes to the description of collateral set forth in the net cash proceeds from the disposition of assets outside the ordinary course of business, except that the Company is permitted to keep the first $40.0 million in trucking terminal property sales over the term of the loan to reinvest in operations or other strategic initiatives, where applicable.

~~Borrowings~~UST Credit Agreements, permanently capitalizing previously paid-in-kind interest on borrowings under the New Term Loan Agreement, that all future interest shall accrue at Eurodollar rate plus a margin of 7.5% per annum and 6.5% per annum in the case of alternative base rate borrowings paid in cash and a requirement that the Company must maintain minimum Liquidity of $125.0 million and a minimum Consolidated EBITDA commencing with the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2021, to be not less than $100.0 million for the four quarters ending December 31, 2021, $150.0 million for the four quarters ending March 31, 2022 and $200.0 million thereafter, and an extension of the EBITDA covenant holiday through the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2021.

$450 Million ABL Facility

On February 13, 2014, we entered into our $450 million asset-based loan facility (the “ABL Facility”) from a syndicate of banks arranged by Citizens Bank N.A. (formerly known as RBS Citizens, N.A.) (the “ABL Agent”), Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith and CIT Finance LLC. YRC Worldwide and our subsidiaries, YRC Freight, Reddaway, Holland and New Penn are borrowers under the ABL Facility, and certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries are guarantors thereunder.

Availability under the ABL Facility is derived by reducing the amount that may be ~~voluntarily prepaid, provided however,~~advanced against eligible receivables plus eligible borrowing base cash by certain reserves imposed by the ABL Agent and our outstanding letters of credit and revolving loans. Eligible borrowing base cash is cash that ~~any such prepayment~~is deposited from time to time into a segregated restricted account and is included in “Restricted amounts held in escrow” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

At our option, borrowings under the ABL Facility bear interest at either: (i) the applicable LIBOR rate plus 2.25%, as amended, or ~~mandatory prepayment (other~~(ii) the base rate (as defined in the ABL Facility) plus 1.25%, as amended.

Letter of credit fees equal to the applicable LIBOR margin in effect, 2.25% as amended, are charged quarterly in arrears on the average daily stated amount of all letters of credit outstanding during the quarter. Unused line fees are charged quarterly in arrears (such unused line fee percentage is equal to 0.375% per annum if the average revolver usage is less than ~~with respect~~50% or 0.25% per annum if the average revolver usage is greater than 50%).

The ABL Facility is secured by a perfected first priority security interest (subject to permitted liens) in accounts receivable, cash, deposit accounts and other assets related to accounts receivable of the Company and the other loan parties and an additional second priority security interest (subject to permitted liens) in substantially all remaining assets of the borrowers and the guarantors other than the CDA collateral.

The ABL Facility contains conditions, representations and warranties, events of default and indemnification provisions that are customary for financings of this type, including, but not limited to, a ~~prepayment~~springing minimum fixed charge coverage ratio covenant, borrowing base reporting, limitations on incurrence of debt, investments, liens on assets, certain sale and leaseback transactions, transactions with ~~excess cash flow) will be subject to a 3.0% premium until the first anniversary date, a 2.0% premium from the first anniversary date until the second anniversary date,~~affiliates, mergers, consolidations, purchases and ~~a 1.0% premium from the second anniversary date until the third anniversary date,~~sales of assets, and ~~0.0% thereafter.~~

~~The New Term Loan resulted in an extinguishment of $11.2 million in capitalized issuance discount and unamortized deferred debt issuance costs~~restricted payments. Certain provisions relating to investments, restricted payments and capital expenditures are relaxed upon meeting specified payment conditions or debt repayment conditions.

On July 7, 2020, the ~~prior term loan.

UST Credit Agreements as well as an increase of 0.5% to applicable margin to borrowings under the ABL Facility (which increase is already reflected above).

Liquidity

Our principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, available borrowings under our ~~asset-based loan facility (the~~

“ABL ~~Facility”)~~Facility and any prospective net cash flow from operations. As of September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, our maximum availability under our ABL Facility was ~~$69.5~~$61.0 million, and our managed accessibility was $19.6 million. “Managed Accessibility” represents the maximum amount we would access on the ABL Facility and is adjusted for eligible receivables plus eligible borrowing base cash measured as of September 30, 2020. Maximum availability is derived by reducing the amount that may be advanced against eligible receivables plus eligible borrowing base cash by certain reserves imposed by the ABL Agent and our $353.3 million of outstanding letters of credit. Our Managed Accessibility ~~was $28.8~~of $19.6 million ~~which~~ represents the maximum amount we would access on the ABL Facility and is adjusted for eligible receivables plus eligible borrowing base cash measured at September 30, ~~2019. As~~2020. The credit agreement governing the ABL Facility permits adjustments from eligible borrowing base cash to restricted cash prior to the compliance measurement date of ~~September 30, 2019, our cash and cash equivalents and Managed Accessibility were $150.1 million.~~

October 15, 2020.

For the December 31, ~~2018~~2019 borrowing base certificate, which was filed in January of ~~2019,~~2020, we transferred ~~$25.0~~$29.0 million of cash into restricted cash ~~to maintain the 10% threshold,~~ as permitted under the ABL Facility, which transfer effectively put our cash and cash equivalents and Managed Accessibility to ~~$203.8~~$80.4 million.

The Company is in our New Term Loan Agreement as “Consolidated EBITDA,” is a measure that reflects our earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization expense, and is further adjusted for, among other things, letter of credit fees, equity-based compensation expense, net gains or losses on property disposals, restructuring charges, transaction costs related to issuances of debt, non-recurring consulting fees, non-cash impairment charges, integration costs, severance, non-recurring charges and the gains or losses from permitted dispositions, discontinued operations, and certain non-cash expenses, charges and losses (provided that if any of such non-cash expenses, charges or losses represents an accrual or reserve for potential cash items in any future period, the cash payment in respect thereof in such future period will be subtracted from Consolidated EBITDA in such future period to the extent paid). The definition was further modified under the New Term Loan Agreement such that certain expenses that qualify as adjustments are capped at 10.0% of the trailing-twelve-month Adjusted EBITDA, in aggregate. Adjustments subject to the 10.0% cap include, but are not limited to, restructuring charges, integration costs, severance, and non-recurring charges. Additionally, all net gains from the disposition of properties are excluded from the definition of Adjusted EBITDA, therefore any gains previously recognized in Adjusted EBITDA, as that term was previously defined in our SEC filings, in accordance with its definition in the Prior Term Loan Agreement, will not be included in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA under the New Term Loan Agreement.

The ABL Facility also contains certain covenants, including, but not limited to, annual limits on capital expenditures. The ABL includes a $200.0 million annual limit on capital expenditures but one year lookback is permitted. The annual capital expenditure limit covenant was removed from the New Term Loan Agreement.

~~Risks and Uncertainties Regarding Compliance with Credit Facility Financial Covenants~~

~~We believe that our results of operations will allow us to comply~~compliance with the ~~minimum Adjusted EBITDA~~applicable financial covenant inas of September 30, 2020.

The only applicable financial covenant until December 31, 2021 is the ~~New Term Loan Agreement~~Liquidity requirement of $125.0 million. With Liquidity as of September 30, 2020 of $453.7 million, UST loan availability, and forecasted operating results, management concludes it probable the Company will meet this covenant requirement for ~~at least~~ the next twelve months, subject to specific actions and cost savings initiatives we are taking in the fourth quarter of 2019 and the first quarter of 2020 to provide additional Adjusted EBITDA. These actions include headcount reductions commensurate with our current volume levels, a hiring freeze on new and replacement positions, temporary elimination of short-term incentive compensation and a reduction in discretionary spend. We are taking these actions because we have not been able to fully realize operational efficiencies arising from our new five-year national master contract (“New NMFA”) due to depressed volume levels. Our ability to satisfy our liquidity needs and meet our minimum Adjusted EBITDA requirement during the next twelve months and thereafter is dependent upon our ability to achieve operating results that reflect improvement over our first half 2019, which were negatively impacted by the process to obtain our five-year labor agreement scheduled to expire on March 31, 2019 and successfully ratified on May 14, 2019. Significant adverse conditions, which may result from changes in global trade policies or increased contraction in the general economy, may impact our ability to achieve a minimum Adjusted EBITDA above $200.0 million on a trailing-twelve-month basis. Means for improving our profitability include accelerated

implementation of network optimization, specific initiatives in the areas of pricing and customer engagement, and other operational actions to improve productivity and efficiency, as well as increased volume, all of which may not be within our control. If we are unable to achieve the improved results required to comply with this covenant in one or more quarters over the next twelve months, we may be required to take specific actions in addition to those described above, including but not limited to, additional reductions in headcount, targeted procurement initiatives to reduce operating costs and accelerating terminal closures to reduce overhead and other operating costs, or alternatively, seeking an amendment or waiver from our lenders or taking other remedial measures.

~~4. Leases~~

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease or contains a lease at inception. We lease certain revenue equipment and real estate, predominantly through operating leases, and we have an immaterial number of leases in which we are a lessor. Operating leases are expensed on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease beginning on the lease commencement date. We determine the lease term by assuming the exercise of renewal options that are reasonably certain. The lease term is used to determine whether a lease is finance or operating and is used to calculate rent expense. Additionally, the depreciable life of leased assets and leasehold improvements is limited by the expected lease term. Operating lease balances are classified as operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and current and long-term operating lease liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet. We have an immaterial amount of finance leases that are included in property and equipment, other current liabilities, and other long-term liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet.

ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate adjusted for duration and other factors to represent the rate we would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease and we will adjust the life of the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise these options.

We have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are generally accounted for as a single lease component. We have variable lease components, including lease payments with payment escalation based on the Consumer Price Index, and other variable items, such as common area maintenance and taxes.

~~Key assumptions include discount rate, the impact of purchase options and renewal options on our lease term, as well as the assessment of residual value guarantees.~~

Our revenue equipment leases generally have purchase options. However, in most circumstances we are not typically certain of exercising the purchase option as we may sign a new lease, return the equipment to the lessor, or exercise the option as circumstances dictate. Our revenue equipment leases often contain residual value guarantees, but they are not reflected in our lease liabilities

~~as our lease rates are such that residual value guarantees are not expected to be owed at the end of our leases. Wrecked units are expensed in full upon damage and paid out to the lessor.~~

Our real estate leases will often have an option to extend the lease, but we are typically not reasonably certain of exercising options to extend as we have the ability to move to more advantageous locations over time, relocate to other leased and owned locations, or discontinue service from particular locations over time as customer demand changes.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, net periodic pension cost included a non-union pension settlement charge for the Yellow Corporation Pension Plan (the “Yellow Plan”) of $1.9 million. The pension settlement charge was triggered due to the amount of lump sum benefit payments distributed from plan assets in 2020. The lump sum benefit payments reduce pension obligations and are funded from existing pension plan assets and therefore do not impact the Company’s cash balance. As a result of this settlement, the Company was required to measure the Yellow Plan as of July 31, 2020.

While plan liabilities increased by $37.5 million largely due to decreasing discount rates, plan assets specific to the Yellow Plan increased by $146.9 million as a result of larger than expected return on plan assets held in a master trust over our three pension plans. The return on plan assets was achieved primarily on the strength of one investment where we have trading restrictions in place until late in the fourth quarter of 2020. The net impact of the remeasurement yielded an improvement in the funded status of the Yellow Plan from a net liability of $118.5 million as of December 31, 2019 to a net asset of $0.2 million as of September 30, 2020.

The other two plans held in the same master trust, the Roadway LLC Pension Plan and the YRC Retirement Pension Plan, have not been remeasured as they did not trigger a similar settlement charge and will be remeasured on December 31, 2020.

We ~~expect to contribute $9.9~~have contributed $16.6 million to our Company-sponsored pension plans in ~~2019, of which we have contributed $7.7 million~~ through September 30, ~~2019.~~

2020. Due to funding relief provided by the CARES Act, we are not required to make the remaining $15.2 million of required annual contributions until January 1, 2021 but required contributions may be made sooner.

6. Income Taxes

Our effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, ~~2019~~2020 was ~~3.0%~~83.8% and ~~1.2%~~35.1%, respectively, compared to ~~61.8%~~3.0% and ~~44.9%~~1.2%, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, ~~2018.~~ 2019. The significant items impacting the ~~2019~~2020 rates includea benefit from the reversal of liability for an uncertain tax position resulting from statute expiration, a benefit recognized due to application of the exception to the rules regarding intraperiod tax allocation, a provision for net state and foreign taxes, certain permanent items and a change in the valuation allowance established for the net deferred tax asset balance projected for December 31, ~~2019.~~2020. The significant items impacting the ~~2018~~2019 rates include a benefit recognized due to application of the exception to the rules regarding intraperiod tax allocation, a provision for net state and foreign taxes, ~~foreign withholding taxes related to dividends from a foreign subsidiary,~~ certain permanent items and a change in the valuation allowance established for the net deferred tax asset balance that had been projected for December 31, ~~2018.~~2019. We recognize valuation allowances on deferred tax assets if, based on the weight of the evidence, we determine it is more likely than not such assets will not be realized. Changes in valuation allowances are included

in our tax provision in the period of change. In determining whether a valuation allowance is warranted, we evaluate factors such as prior years’ earnings history,

expected future earnings, loss carry-forward periods, reversals of existing deferred tax liabilities and tax planning strategies that potentially enhance the likelihood of the realization of a deferred tax asset. At September 30, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, substantially all of our net deferred tax assets were subject to a valuation allowance.

7. ~~Earnings (Loss)~~Loss Per Share

~~We calculate basic earnings (loss) per share by dividing~~

Given our net ~~earnings (loss) available to common shareholders by our weighted-average shares outstanding at the end~~loss position for each of the period. The calculation for diluted earnings (loss) per share adjusts the weighted average shares outstanding for our dilutive unvested shares and stock units using the treasury stock method. Our calculations for basic and dilutive earnings (loss) per share for three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, ~~and 2018 are as follows:~~

~~8. Business Segments~~

~~We report financial and descriptive information about our reporting segments on a basis consistent~~

On July 9, 2020, the Company issued 15,943,753 shares of common stock to the UST in connection with that used internally for evaluating segment performance and allocating resources to segments. We evaluate segment performance primarily on external revenue, operating income (loss), and operating ratio.

~~We charge management fees and other corporate service fees to our reporting segments based on~~ the benefits received or an overhead allocation basis. Shared support functions include information technology, legal, financial services, revenue management, and other company-wide services. Corporate represents residual operating expensesexecution of the ~~holding company that are not attributable to any segment and remain unallocated. It also represents certain items that are permitted to be~~UST Credit Agreements. These shares have been included in ~~Adjusted EBITDA. Corporate identifiable assets primarily consist of cash~~the average common shares outstanding used to calculate loss per share for the three and ~~cash equivalents, restricted amounts held in escrow, and information technology assets, which are offset by eliminations with~~nine month periods ended September 30, 2020 from the ~~two business segments.~~

Department of Defense Complaints

In December 2018, the United States on behalf of the United States Department of Defense filed a Complaint in Intervention (“Complaint”) against the Company in the U.S. District in the Western District of New York captioned United States ex rel. James Hannum v. YRC Freight, Inc.; Roadway Express, Inc.; and Yellow Transportation, Inc., Civil Action No. 08-0811(A). The Complaint alleges that the Company violated the False Claims Act by overcharging the Department of Defense for freight carrier services by failing to comply with the contractual terms of freight contracts between the Department of Defense and the Company and related government procurement rules. The Complaint also alleges claims for unjust enrichment and breach of contract. Under the False Claims Act, the Complaint seeks treble damages, civil penalties, attorneys’ fees and costs of suit, all in unspecified amounts. The remaining common causes of action seek an undetermined amount for an alleged breach of contract or alternatively causes constituting unjust enrichment or a payment by mistake. The Company has moved to dismiss the case, and the court heard oral arguments on the motion on August 12, 2019. On July 17, 2020, the court granted the Company’s motion to dismiss in part with respect to one claim and denied it in all other respects. Management believes the Company has meritorious defenses against the remaining counts and intends to vigorously defend this action. We are unable to estimate the possible loss, or range of possible loss, associated with these claims at this time.

Class Action Securities Complaint

In January 2019, a purported class action lawsuit captioned Christina Lewis v. YRC Worldwide Inc., et al., Case No. 1:19-cv-00001, was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of New York against the Company and certain of our current and former officers. The complaint was filed on behalf of persons who purchased or otherwise acquired the Company’s publicly traded securities between March 10, 2014 and December 14, 2018. The complaint generally ~~alleges~~alleged that the defendants had violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by making false and misleading statements relating to ~~its~~the Company’s freight billing practices as alleged in the Department of Defense complaint described above. The action ~~includes~~included claims for damages, including interest, and an award of reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees. The co-lead plaintiffs filed an amended complaint on June 14, 2019, and the defendants moved to dismiss it on July 15, 2019. On March 27, 2020, the court granted defendants’ motion to dismiss in its entirety and entered judgment closing the case. The ~~motion~~co-lead plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit on April 27, 2020. That appeal is fully briefed and awaiting decision. Management believes the Company has meritorious defenses and intends to vigorously defend this action. We are unable to estimate the possible loss, or range of possible loss, associated with these claims at this time.

Shareholder Derivative Complaint

In May 2019, a putative shareholder filed an action derivatively and on behalf of the Company naming James L. Welch, Jamie G. Pierson, Stephanie D. Fisher, Raymond J. Bromark, Douglas A. Carty, William R. Davidson, Matthew A. Doheny, Robert L. Friedman, James E. Hoffman, Michael J. Kneeland, Patricia M. Nazemetz, and James F. Winestock individually as defendants and the Company as the nominal defendant. In an amended complaint, filed on October 15, 2019, Darren D. Hawkins was added as a defendant. The case, is captioned Hastey v. Welch, et al., Case No. 2:~~19-cf-2266-KGG, and is pending~~19-cv-2266-KGG, was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Kansas. The Complaint ~~alleges~~alleged that the Company was exposed to harm by the individual defendants’ purported conduct concerning its freight-billing practices as alleged in the Department of Defense Complaint and the Class Action Securities Complaint described above. The Complaint ~~asserts~~asserted that the individual defendants’ purported conduct violated Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and that they breached their fiduciary duties, were unjustly enriched, and engaged in corporate waste. ~~Motions to dismiss were filed on August 16, 2019~~On March 30, 2020, the Court granted the Company’s and ~~in response, Plaintiff filed the October 15, 2019 amended complaint. A~~individual defendants’ motion to dismiss, dismissing Plaintiff’s Section 14(a) claim with prejudice, and declining to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over the ~~amended complaint was~~remaining claims and thus dismissing them without prejudice. The Court further denied as moot motions to intervene in the action that had been filed ~~on October 29, 2019. The Complaint seeks damages on behalf of the Company.~~

by three putative shareholders.

In October 2019, another putative shareholder filed an action derivatively and on behalf of the Company in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware naming the same defendants as did the October 15, 2019 amended complaint in the Hastey case. The case is captioned Broughton v. Hawkins, et al. Case No. 1:19-cv-01958-UNA, and makes claims similar to those made in Hastey.

After a motion to dismiss the Broughton Complaint was filed on December 20, 2019, Plaintiff filed an unopposed motion for voluntary dismissal of her Complaint without prejudice on February 19, 2020. The court granted the motion on April 20, 2020.

Other Legal Matters

We are involved in litigation or proceedings that arise in ordinary business activities. When possible, we insure against these risks to the extent we deem prudent, but no assurance can be given that the nature or amount of such insurance will be sufficient to fully indemnify us against liabilities arising out of pending and future legal proceedings. Many of these insurance policies contain self-insured retentions in amounts we deem prudent. Based on our current assessment of information available as of the date of these consolidated financial statements, we believe that our consolidated financial statements include adequate provisions for estimated costs and losses that may be incurred within the litigation and proceedings to which we are a party.

9. Related Party Transactions

We are deemed a related party under the applicable accounting standards with the United Stated federal government as a result of entering the UST Credit Agreements and the associated issuance of common stock to the UST. In the ordinary course of business, the Company has continued to regularly transact with various authorities associated with the United States federal government (the “U.S. government”) and to also operate in an industry subject to various U.S. government regulations. These transactions and regulatory oversight relationships include the Company providing a full range of transportation services to various U.S. government entities and the Company being subject to certain applicable U.S. government regulations such as those of the U.S. Departments of Transportation and Homeland Security, as examples.

10. Subsequent Events

On October 20, 2020, the Company received $74.8 million of funds on an initial draw of the Tranche B UST Credit Agreement, which is more fully described in the “Debt and Financing” footnote to the consolidated financial statements. These funds are required to be used to fund the purchase of tractors and trailers.

Our Business

YRC Worldwide is a holding company that, through its operating subsidiaries, offers our customers a wide range of transportation services. YRC Worldwide has one of the largest, most comprehensive LTL networks in North America with local, regional, national and international capabilities. Through its team of experienced service professionals, YRC Worldwide offers industry-leading expertise in LTL shipments and flexible supply chain solutions, ensuring customers can ship industrial, commercial and retail goods with confidence.

The Company is currently modernizing the holding company brand of Yellow and expects to reinvigorate its use in the coming months.

We measure the performance of our business ~~on both a consolidated and reporting segment basis and~~ using several metrics, but rely primarily upon (without limitation) operating revenue, operating income (loss), and operating ratio. We also use certain non-GAAP financial measures as secondary measures to assess our operating performance.

•

Operating Revenue: Our operating revenue has two primary components: volume (commonly evaluated using tonnage, tonnage per day, number of shipments, shipments per day or weight per shipment) and yield or price (commonly evaluated using picked up revenue, revenue per hundredweight or revenue per shipment). Yield includes fuel surcharge revenue, which is common in the trucking industry and represents an amount charged to customers that adjusts with changing fuel prices. We base our fuel surcharges on the U.S. Department of Energy fuel index and adjust them weekly. Rapid material changes in the index or our cost of fuel can positively or negatively impact our revenue and operating income as a result of changes in our fuel surcharge. We believe that fuel surcharge is an accepted and important component of the overall pricing of our services to our customers. Without an industry accepted fuel surcharge program, our base pricing for our transportation services would require changes. We believe the distinction between base rates and fuel surcharge has blurred over time, and it is impractical to clearly separate all the different factors that influence the price that our customers are willing to pay. In general, under our present fuel surcharge program, we believe rising fuel costs are beneficial to us and falling fuel costs are detrimental to us in the short term, the effects of which are mitigated over time.

•

Operating Income (Loss): Operating income (loss) is operating revenue less operating expenses.

•

Operating Ratio: Operating ratio is a common operating performance measure used in the trucking industry. It is calculated as (i) 100 percent (ii) minus the result of dividing operating income by operating revenue or (iii) plus the result of dividing operating loss by operating revenue, and is expressed as a percentage.

~~Operating Income (Loss):~~ ~~Operating income (loss) is operating revenue less operating expenses. Consolidated operating income (loss) includes certain corporate charges that are not allocated to our reporting segments.~~

•

Non-GAAP Financial Measures: We use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures, to assess the following:

It is calculated as (i) 100 percent (ii) minus the result of dividing operating income by operating revenue or (iii) plus the result of dividing operating loss by operating revenue, and is expressed as a percentage.

~~Non-GAAP Financial Measures:~~ ~~We use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures, to assess the following:~~


◦ o	EBITDA: a non-GAAP measure that reflects our earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization expense. EBITDA is used for internal management purposes as a financial measure that reflects our core operating performance.

◦

Adjusted EBITDA: a non-GAAP measure that reflects EBITDA, and further adjusts for letter of credit fees, equity-based compensation expense, net gains or losses on property disposals, restructuring charges, transaction costs related to issuances of debt, non-recurring consulting fees, non-cash impairment charges and the gains or losses from permitted dispositions, discontinued operations, and certain non-cash expenses, charges and losses (provided that if any of such non-cash expenses, charges or losses represents an accrual or reserve for potential cash items in any future period, the cash payment in respect thereof in such future period will be subtracted from Consolidated EBITDA in such future period to the extent paid). All references to “Adjusted EBITDA” throughout this section and the rest of this report refer to “Adjusted EBITDA” calculated under our ~~New Term Loan Agreement~~TL Agreements (defined therein as “Consolidated EBITDA”) unless otherwise specified. Consolidated EBITDA is also a defined term in our ABL ~~Agreement~~Facility and the definition there aligns with the prior definition of Consolidated EBITDA under the Prior Term Loan Agreement. Adjusted EBITDA is used for internal management purposes as a financial measure that reflects our core operating performance, to measure compliance with financial covenants in our ~~credit facilities~~TL Agreements and to determine certain management and employee bonus compensation.

We believe our presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors and other users as these measures represent key supplemental information our management uses to compare and evaluate our core underlying business results, ~~both on a consolidated basis and across our business segments,~~ particularly in light of our leverage position and the capital-intensive nature of our business. Further, EBITDA is a measure that is commonly used by other companies in our industry and provides a comparison for investors to evaluate the performance of the companies in the industry. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA helps investors to understand how the company is tracking against our financial covenant in our ~~term loan credit agreement~~TL Agreements as this measure is calculated as defined in our ~~term loan credit agreement~~TL Agreements and serves as a driving component of our key financial ~~covenant.~~

covenants.

Our non-GAAP financial measures have the following limitations:


◦ o	EBITDA does not reflect the interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or fund principal payments on our outstanding debt;


◦ o	Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or fund principal payments on our outstanding debt, letter of credit fees, restructuring charges, transaction costs related to the issuance of debt, non-cash expenses, charges or losses, or nonrecurring consulting fees, among other items;


◦ o	Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will generally need to be replaced in the future and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;


◦ o	Equity-based compensation is an element of our long-term incentive compensation package, although Adjusted EBITDA excludes employee equity-based compensation expense when presenting our ongoing operating performance for a particular period; and


◦ o	Other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, potentially limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Because of these limitations, our non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and use our non-GAAP measures as secondary measures.

COVID-19

The global outbreak of COVID-19 has significantly impacted 2020 results and may continue to do so in future reporting periods. The full extent of the outbreak, related business and travel restrictions and changes to behavior intended to reduce the virus’s spread are uncertain and continue to evolve. While transportation is an essential business, and we have continued to operate without any material business interruptions, there has been a negative impact to the demand for transportation services.

Our shipping volumes began to decline in late March and were depressed compared to prior year throughout the first nine months of 2020. However, volumes have improved during the third quarter. Given the amount of economic uncertainty, including uncertainty about how and when federal, state and local governments will lift business and travel restrictions, it is difficult to predict how long we may experience negative year-over-year trends. Additionally, the demand for crude oil has seen a decline during the third quarter which will continue to put downward pressure on our fuel surcharge revenues. As shipping revenues decrease, the need to manage liquidity becomes increasingly important and actions the Company has taken are more fully described in Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources. As of September 30, 2020, there have been no significant charges related to bad debt due to the global outbreak of COVID-19.

As we have not experienced any significant information technology outages that have impacted day-to-day operations, our control environment and operations continue to operate as they did before the outbreak of COVID-19.

The CARES Act contained certain income tax provisions intended to provide relief to taxpayers, but the Company does not anticipate these will have any significant impact on our tax rate, current or deferred tax provision, or cash taxes.

Business Strategy Overview

~~The~~

During 2019, the Company ~~has developed~~launched a ~~comprehensive business~~multi-year enterprise transformation strategy to achieve long-term profitability and ~~stability.~~cash flow. Our strategic roadmap ~~to improved profitability and stability is~~was built upon the proven alliance of our LTL regional and national networks, as well as our recently launched multi-mode freight brokerage solutions, to provide a broad portfolio of freight and business services to our customers.

The ~~key~~Company accomplished four foundational components ~~to our multi-year strategic roadmap include:~~

during 2019:


1.	~~Labor contract ratification, along with implementation of operational efficiencies to achieve service excellence~~ Ratified a new five-year labor contract;


2.	~~Capital structure improvement~~ Refinanced a term loan with improved and more flexible terms;


3.	~~Network optimization~~ Reorganized the field leadership structure to streamline decision making and enhance execution; and


4.	~~Customer growth/engagement initiatives~~ Completed the reorganization of the enterprise-wide sales force.

In 2020, the next phase of our transformation includes:


5. 1.	~~Capital investment in equipment and technology~~ Operational optimization;

~~Labor contract ratification and implementation of operational efficiencies: During the first half of 2019, the Company ratified the New NMFA~~

Technology migration;

Facility evaluation.

The primary focus for the employees of Holland, New Penn and YRC Freight. The New NMFA is a critical element to the comprehensive strategic plan as it provides the Company with important changes to create a foundation for revenue growth and operational excellence. The operational changes are expected to provide efficiencies in our workforce by introducing new job classifications and allowing us to employ more flexible work rules to optimize the use of our valuable employee resources. These changes allow us to improve labor mix which should result in reduced costs per labor hour. For example, prior to the New NMFA, we were unable to fill part-time positions in many key markets across our footprint due to a non-competitive wage package for part-time employees. With the New NMFA, we are now expanding our part-time work force which allows us to reposition our commercial driver’s license (“CDL”) drivers to freight delivery and to deploy part-time employees to dock positions, resulting in lower employee compensation expense and improved productivity. The expansion of purchased transportation that is permitted under the New NMFA provides us opportunities to plan and source our operations using more cost-effective resources and to expand our capacity consistent with our customer growth and engagement initiatives. The New NMFA also allows us to introduce new equipment, referred to as box trucks, into our LTL freight operations, which, along with new non-CDL driver classifications, permits us to provide a lower cost solution to local cartage or short-term rentals. Further, on September 27, 2019, the Company ratified a new two-year collective bargaining agreement for the employees of Reddaway, who were previously party to multiple bargaining agreements, have been combined into one collective agreement.

~~Capital Structure Improvement~~: The Company announced a refinancing of its term loan obligations on September 11, 2019 and entered into a New Term Loan Agreement, which provides for additional liquidity, less restrictive financial covenants, a lower interest rate and extends the maturitynext phase of the ~~facility~~enterprise transformation strategy is to ~~June 2024. The New Term Loan eliminates~~operationally transform the ~~annual principal amortization~~movement of ~~3.0%, which approximated $18.0 million~~freight through our network and the technology used in ~~principal payments per year, and provides~~ the ~~ability to reinvest the first $40.0 million in cash proceeds earned from the sale of certain owned properties.~~

~~Network Optimization~~: While ongoing investments in equipment and technology remain our primary use of excess operating cash flows, we understand the importance of balancing liquidity and our ongoing investments with the service capacity we need to bring to the market.process. In the initial phase of our ~~network optimization~~ plan to optimize operations, which ~~spans~~spanned most of 2019, two of our companies ~~operate~~operated independently out of the same service ~~center. Upon implementation of~~area. Under the New ~~NMFA~~National Master Freight Agreement that was ratified on May 14, 2019, we ~~may now~~have the opportunity to consolidate service centers across our operating companies, along with the ability to implement strategic changes of operations, to optimize utilization of our assets and ~~resources, and companies that operate in the same service territory will be serviced through one primary carrier.~~resources. We believe service center consolidation presents the greatest opportunity for ~~our network optimization~~this initiative. We ~~expect to launch~~launched our first consolidation in late 2019, with the ~~majority~~emphasis of ~~network consolidations~~facility evaluation occurring in 2020. By ~~consolidating~~rationalizing the number of physical locations in the network while maintaining geographic coverage, we will improve density which should allow for improved service ~~centers, we expect~~for our valued customers. We anticipate these efforts have allowed us to recognize cost savings in our linehaul and pick-up and delivery operations due to improved density, ~~fewer miles driven~~increased asset utilization, and optimization of route planning and labor ~~resources.~~resources, but we believe COVID-19 impacts have masked the full impact of those improvements. Over time, this initiative should continue to enhance service and strategically position our network for the growing demand of ~~next-day services,~~our customers and their supply chain needs, provide productivity improvements and streamline our cost structure as we seek to ~~eliminate redundancies~~optimize resources across the network, ~~both in~~including facilities, infrastructure and human capital. AsWe intend to consolidate individual operating company systems into a single platform, with the end goal of the date of this filing, we have completed the consolidation of twelve service centers. Most recently, we have moved forward with certain headcount reductions to remain disciplined with our cost structure, including, but not limited to, the consolidation of the New Penn corporate servicesimproving profitability and the ~~implementation of a new operations field structure.~~

~~Customer Growth/Engagement Initiatives: Creating simplified engagement for customers and an increased service offering~~customer experience. By streamlining systems, we are a critical part of our strategic focus on growth and engagement. We completed the final phase of our sales restructuring which consolidated our four distinct sales groups into one enterprise sales organization. This allows customers to buy regional, national and brokerage services from a single point of contact at YRCW while introducing existing customers to additional operating companies. The launch of our third-party brokerage solution, HNRY Logistics in late 2018 is the perfect complement to our LTL, asset-based companies and allows us to better serviceproviding our customers ~~with a full suite of logistics solutions.~~

access to five brands through one network and one enterprise-wide service offering.

Capital ~~Investment: Capital allocation~~investment remains a top priority for us. We believe our UST Credit Agreements will ~~continue~~enable a significant increase in the amount of capital we are able to invest in revenue equipment to improve the age of our fleet as there is an immediate return in improved fuel miles per gallon and reduced vehicle maintenance ~~expense and improved driver morale. Since 2015, approximately 37% of~~expense. To properly execute on our ~~tractor fleet and 28% of our trailer fleet have been upgraded. While the average age of our fleet still lags the industry, the average age of our fleet is no longer increasing.~~

~~New National Master Freight Agreement~~

On May 14, 2019, union employees at operating companies Holland, New Penn and YRC Freight ratified New NMFA, along with all supplemental agreements. The New NMFA outlines terms and conditions of employment that are customary in collective bargaining agreements and apply at a national level across the covered operations, such as wages, health benefits, multiemployer pensiontransformation plan, ~~contribution rates, and various operational items. A few of the highlights in the New NMFA include:~~

~~Hourly wage increases in each year of the contract, beginning April 1, 2019 through 2023~~

~~Health and welfare and pension contribution rate increases~~

~~Restoration of an additional one-week of vacation~~

~~The expanded ability to utilize smaller trucks that can be operated by employees who do not have a CDL~~

~~The ability to utilize additional hours of service, in accordance with Department of Transportation regulations~~

~~The increased ability to utilize purchased transportation at YRC Freight and Holland~~

~~The increased ability to utilize employees in non-driving positions~~

~~A newly-structured performance bonus program for employees~~

~~The new wage improvements allow us to advance our driver hiring and retention efforts to ensure~~ we are ~~adequately staffed with professional CDL drivers~~committed to investing in technology in order to enhance the customer experience and ~~other key personnel at~~improve our service centers. The contractual wage increases under the New NMFA were paid retroactively to April 1, 2019 including the one week of vacation. Additionally, the Company incurred one-time vacation charges in second quarter operating results of $12.4 million to reflect the full year 2018 and first quarter 2019 vacation benefit increase.

~~The supplemental agreements cover more localized work rules and other terms and conditions of employment. The Company was unable to commence actions to implement the~~ operational ~~efficiencies until the New NMFA, and all supplements, were fully ratified on May 14, 2019.~~flexibilities.

~~Our~~2019

Results of operations in the third quarter of 2020 were impacted by the outbreak of COVID-19 as shipping volumes decreased from typical levels especially earlier in the quarter and in certain markets that have seen greater case levels of COVID-19. Downward pressure on diesel prices reduced the amount of fuel surcharge revenues the Company was able to price in our services. As such, our consolidated operating revenue decreased ~~$46.8~~$73.4 million, or ~~3.6%~~5.8%, during the third ~~quarter of~~ ~~2019~~ ~~compared~~quarter.

Due to the ~~same period~~trends in ~~2018. The decrease~~shipping volumes and shortages for certain labor resources, the Company maintained a lower headcount than historical levels. In addition, the Company’s results reflect decreases in ~~revenue is primarily attributed to a decrease in tonnage~~variable expenses, including fuel and ~~fuel surcharge revenue, while partially offset by an increase in base yield excluding fuel surcharge.~~

maintenance, among others. Offsetting these variable expense decreases the Company paid higher contractual wage and benefit rates for union employees.

Total operating expenses decreased ~~$29.4~~$69.0 million, or 2.3%, for the third quarter of 2019 compared to the third quarter of 2018, and consisted primarily of lower purchased transportation expense as well as lower fuel, operating expenses and supplies, partially offset by increased salaries, wages and employee benefits.

~~Salaries, wages and employee benefits. Salaries, wages and employee benefits increased $13.2 million, or 1.8%~~5.6%, primarily ~~due to a $10.5 million increase in benefits costs and a $7.2 million increase in wage expense,~~ as a result of ~~higher contractual rates due to the New NMFA, which were partially offset by a $6.3 million decrease~~decreases in ~~short-term incentive compensation.~~

variable expenses. Further material changes are provided below.

Fuel, operating expenses and supplies. Fuel, operating expenses and supplies decreased ~~$14.7~~$43.7 million, or ~~6.3%~~20.0%, primarily due to a ~~$15.0~~$27.9 million decrease in fuel expense, which was largely a result of lower fuel prices and fewer miles driven.

~~Purchased transportation. Purchased transportation decreased $22.7~~ Additional decreases resulted from cost reduction efforts, including an $8.3 million ~~or 12.4%, primarily due to a $17.9 million decrease~~reduction in ~~rail and over-the-road purchased transportation expense as a result of reduced shipping volumes and a $3.4 million decrease from reduced usage of local purchased transportation.~~

~~Other operating expense.~~ ~~Other operating expense decreased $6.6 million, or 10.1%, primarily due to~~professional services, a $5.3 million decrease in ~~third-party liability claims expense largely due to an unfavorable adjustment recorded in 2018 with no similar adjustment during 2019.~~

~~Nonoperating~~other employee expenses, ~~net.~~ Nonoperating expenses, net, increased $6.7 million in the third quarter of 2019 compared to the third quarter of 2018, primarily driven by an $11.2 million loss on extinguishment of debt, which was partially offset byand a ~~$4.9~~$3.7 million decrease in ~~non-union pension~~vehicle maintenance.

Purchased transportation. Purchased transportation increased $16.4 million, or 10.2%, primarily due a $7.3 million increase in third-party costs due to the growth in customer-specific logistics solutions and a $7.0 million increase in over-the-road purchased transportation expense.

Income tax.Our effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2020 and 2019 was 83.8% and ~~2018 was~~ 3.0% ~~and 61.8%~~, respectively. The significant items impacting the ~~2019~~2020 rate include a benefit from the reversal of liability for an uncertain tax position resulting from statute expiration,a benefit recognized due to application of the exception to the rules regarding intraperiod tax allocation, a provision for a net state and foreign taxes, certain permanent items and a change in the valuation allowance established for the net deferred tax asset balance projected for December 31, ~~2019.~~2020. The significant items impacting the ~~2018~~2019 rate include a benefit recognized due to application of the exception to the rules regarding intraperiod tax allocation, a provision for net state and foreign taxes, ~~foreign withholding taxes related to a dividend from a foreign subsidiary,~~

certain permanent items and a change in the valuation allowance established for the net deferred tax asset balance that had been projected for December 31, ~~2018.~~2019. We recognize valuation allowances on deferred tax assets if, based on the weight of the evidence, we determine it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. Changes in valuation allowances are included in our tax provision in the period of change. In determining whether a valuation allowance is warranted, we evaluate factors such as prior years’ earnings history, expected future earnings, loss carry-forward periods, reversals of existing deferred tax liabilities and tax planning strategies that potentially enhance the likelihood of the realization of a deferred tax asset. At September 30, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, substantially all of our net deferred tax assets were subject to a valuation allowance.

~~Reporting Segment Results of Operations~~

~~We evaluate our operating performance using our YRC Freight and Regional Transportation reporting segments:~~

~~YRC Freight~~ is the reporting segment that focuses on longer haul business opportunities with national, regional and international services. YRC Freight provides for the movement of industrial, commercial and retail goods, primarily through centralized management. This reporting segment includes LTL subsidiaries YRC Inc. and YRC Freight Canada Company (both doing business as, and herein referred to as, “YRC Freight”) and HNRY Logistics, Inc. (“HNRY Logistics”), our customer-specific logistics solutions provider. In addition to the United States and Canada, YRC Freight also serves parts of Mexico and Puerto Rico.

~~Regional Transportation~~ is the reporting segment for our transportation service providers focused on business opportunities in the regional and next-day delivery markets. Regional Transportation is comprised of Holland, New Penn and Reddaway. These companies each provide regional, next-day ground services in their respective regions through a network of facilities located across the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico.

The Company uses key operating metrics to provide a comparison with industry peers. Two primary components include volume (commonly evaluated using tonnage, tonnage per day, total shipments, shipments per day or weight per shipment) and yield or price (commonly evaluated as picked up revenue, revenue per hundredweight, or revenue per shipment). With the enhanced focus of service and product expansion and the launch of HNRY Logistics in late 2018, our increase in shipments over 10,000 pounds is growing, impacting the year-over-year revenue per hundredweight metrics that we have historically presented for YRC Freight, which includes the results of operations for HNRY Logistics.

Therefore, the Company has updated its presentation of operating metrics to separately present LTL operating statistics, which represents shipments less than 10,000 pounds. Shipments greater than 10,000 pounds are primarily transported using third-party purchased transportation.

~~YRC Freight Results~~

~~YRC Freight represented 63.9% of consolidated operating revenue for the third quarter of~~ ~~2019, as compared to 63.1% for the third quarter of~~ ~~2018~~. YRC Freight represented 63.3% of consolidated operating revenue for the first three quarters of 2019, as compared to 62.4% for the first three quarters of 2018.

Operating income for YRC Freight was $31.6 million in the third quarter of 2019 compared to operating income of $24.7 million in the third quarter of 2018. Operating expenses decreased $25.8 million, or 3.2%, primarily due to decreases in purchased transportation expense and fuel, operating expenses and supplies. These decreases were partially offset by increased salaries, wages and employee benefits.

~~Salaries, wages and employee benefits.~~ Salaries, wages and employee benefits increased $5.7 million, or 1.3%, primarily due to a $6.0 million increase in benefits costs and a $3.3 million increase in wage expense as a result of higher contractual rates due to the New NMFA, partially offset by a decrease in tonnage that reduced the number of hours needed to process freight. These increases were offset by a $2.6 million decrease in short-term incentive compensation expense.

~~Fuel, operating expenses and supplies~~. Fuel, operating expenses and supplies decreased $9.2 million, or 6.3%, primarily due to an $8.6 million decrease in fuel expense, which was largely driven by lower fuel prices and fewer miles driven.

~~Purchased transportation~~. Purchased transportation decreased $18.4 million, or 12.7%, primarily due to a $13.3 million decrease in rail purchased transportation expense due to reduced shipping volumes and a $4.4 million decrease from reduced usage of local purchased transportation.

~~Other operating expense.~~ Other operating expense decreased $5.0 million, or 12.8%, primarily due to a $3.6 million decrease in third-party liability claims expense largely due to an unfavorable adjustment recorded in 2018 with no similar adjustment during 2019.

Operating income for YRC Freight was $26.5 million in the first three quarters of 2019 compared to operating income of $44.6 million in the first three quarters of 2018. Operating expenses decreased $35.1 million, or 1.5%, primarily due to a decrease in purchased transportation expense and fuel, operating expenses and supplies. These decreases were partially offset by increased salaries, wages and employee benefits.

~~Salaries, wages and employee benefits.~~ Salaries, wages and employee benefits increased $20.9 million, or 1.6%, primarily due to a $23.1 million increase in benefits costs which was largely driven by a $13.9 million increase in union vacation expense due to restoration of benefits from the passage of the New NMFA, and a $4.5 million increase in salaries expense. These increases were partially offset by a $3.3 million reduction in short-term incentive compensation and a $1.7 million decrease in wage expense as a result of an increase in contractual wage rates due to the New NMFA, which was more than offset by a decrease in tonnage that reduced the number of hours needed to process freight.

~~Fuel, operating expenses and supplies. Fuel, operating expenses and supplies decreased $19.2 million, or 4.3%, primarily due to an $18.4 million decrease in fuel expense, which was largely driven by fewer miles driven and lower prices.~~

~~Purchased transportation~~. Purchased transportation decreased $36.5 million, or 9.1%, primarily due to a $38.6 million decrease in rail and over-the-road purchased transportation expense as a result of reduced shipping volumes and a $10.6 million decrease from reduced usage of local purchased transportation and short-term equipment rentals. Purchased transportation expense also includes a $10.4 million increase in third-party costs for customer-specific logistics solutions and a $7.5 million increase in long-term equipment rentals in conjunction with the Company’s leasing strategy to reinvest in its fleet.

~~Other operating expense.~~ ~~Other operating expense decreased $4.4 million, or 4.0%, primarily due to a $3.1 million decrease in cargo claims expense.~~

~~(Gains)/Losses on property disposals~~. Net gains on disposals of property were $2.0 million in the first three quarters of 2019 primarily as a result of a deferred gain recognized from changes in contractual lease terms, partially offset by losses on the disposal of revenue equipment, compared to a $6.2 million loss in the first three quarters of 2018, primarily due to losses on the disposal of revenue equipment.

~~Impairment charges.~~ During the first quarter of 2019 an $8.2 million impairment charge was recorded that reflects the write-down of an intangible asset as a result of rebranding strategies, leading to discontinued use of a tradename.

~~Regional Transportation Results~~

Regional Transportation represented 36.1% of consolidated operating revenue for the third quarter of 2019, as compared to 36.9% for the third quarter of 2018. Regional Transportation represented 36.7% of consolidated operating revenue for the first three quarters of 2019, as compared to 37.6% for the first three quarters of 2018.

~~Third Quarter of 2019 Compared to the Third Quarter of 2018~~

Regional Transportation reported operating revenue of $453.6 million for the third quarter of 2019, a decrease of $27.9 million, or 5.8%, from the third quarter of 2018. The decrease in revenue is primarily attributed to a decrease in tonnage and fuel surcharge revenue, partially offset by an improvement in base yield, excluding fuel surcharge. The table below summarizes the key revenue metrics for the Regional Transportation reporting segment for the third quarter of 2019 compared to the third quarter of 2018:

Operating loss for Regional Transportation was $4.1 million for the third quarter of 2019 compared to operating income of $18.4 million for the third quarter of 2018. Operating expenses decreased $5.4 million, or 1.2%, primarily due to a decrease in fuel, operating expenses and supplies and purchased transportation expense. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in salaries, wages and employee benefits.

~~Salaries, wages and employee benefits.~~ Salaries, wages and employee benefits increased $5.9 million, or 2.1%, primarily due to a $4.3 million increase in benefits costs and a $3.8 million increase in wages which were largely driven by an increase in contractual

wage rates due to the New NMFA, and was partially offset by a decrease in tonnage that reduced the number of hours needed to process freight. Additionally, these increases were partially offset by a $2.1 million decrease in short-term incentive compensation.

~~Fuel, operating expenses and supplies.~~ ~~Fuel, operating expenses and supplies decreased $5.5 million, or 5.6%, primarily due to a $6.3 million decrease in fuel expense, which was largely driven by fewer miles driven and lower prices.~~

~~Purchased transportation. Purchased transportation decreased $4.4 million, or 11.2%, primarily due to a $5.5 million decrease in over-the-road purchased transportation expense as a result of reduced shipping volumes.~~

~~Other operating expense.~~ Other operating expense decreased $1.5 million, or 5.8%, primarily due to a $1.7 million decrease in third-party liability claims expense largely due to improved development of prior year claims during 2019 as compared to 2018.

~~First Three Quarters of 2019 Compared to the First Three Quarters of 2018~~

Regional Transportation reported operating revenue of $1,364.0 million for the first three quarters of 2019, a decrease of $79.8 million, or 5.5%, from the first three quarters of 2018. The decrease in revenue is primarily attributed to a decrease in tonnage and fuel surcharge, partially offset by an improvement in base yield, excluding fuel surcharge.

Operating loss for Regional Transportation was $8.5 million for the first three quarters of 2019 compared to operating income of $52.8 million for the first three quarters of 2018. Operating expenses decreased $18.5 million, or 1.3%, primarily due to a decrease in purchased transportation expense and fuel, operating expenses and supplies. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in salaries, wages and employee benefits.

~~Salaries, wages and employee benefits.~~ Salaries, wages and employee benefits increased $13.9 million, or 1.6%, primarily due to an $11.6 million increase in benefits costs which was largely driven by a $7.4 million increase in union vacation expense due to restoration of benefits from the passage of the New NMFA, a $5.3 million increase in workers’ compensation expense, and a $2.0 million increase in salaries expense. These increases were partially offset by a $5.0 million decrease in short-term incentive compensation and flat wage expense which is a result of an increase in contractual wage rates due to the New NMFA, offset by a decrease in tonnage that reduced the number of hours needed to process freight.

~~Fuel, operating expenses and supplies.~~ ~~Fuel, operating expenses and supplies decreased $12.0 million, or 4.0%, primarily due to a $12.6 million decrease in fuel expense, which was largely driven by fewer miles driven and lower prices.~~

~~Purchased transportation. Purchased transportation decreased $14.6 million, or 12.6%, primarily due to a $13.7 million decrease in over-the-road purchased transportation expense due to reduced shipping volumes.~~

~~Other operating expense.~~ Other operating expense decreased $3.9 million, or 5.1%, primarily due to a $2.5 million decrease in third-party liability claims expense largely due to favorable development of prior year claims, and a $1.3 million decrease in operating taxes as a result of fewer miles driven.

~~(Gains)/losses on property disposals~~. Net gains on disposals of property were $1.6 million in 2019 as a result of gains on the sale of real property, partially offset by losses on the disposal of revenue equipment, as compared to net losses of $1.1 million in 2018, primarily due to losses on the disposal of revenue equipment.

Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measures

As discussed in the “Our Business” section, we use certain non-GAAP financial measures to assess performance. These measures should be considered in addition to the results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, our GAAP financial measures. ~~For segment~~

Such adjustments include, but are not limited to, restructuring charges, integration costs, severance, and non-recurring charges.

Financial Condition /Liquidity and Capital Resources

The following sections provide aggregated information regarding our financial condition, liquidity and capital resources.

Liquidity

Our principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, available borrowings under our asset-based loan facility and any prospective net cash flow from operations. As of September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, our maximum availability under our ABL Facility was ~~$69.5~~$61.0 million, and our managed accessibility was $19.6 million. Maximum availability is derived by reducing the amount that may be advanced against eligible receivables plus eligible borrowing base cash by certain reserves imposed by the ABL Agent and our $353.3 million of outstanding letters of credit. Our Managed Accessibility ~~was $28.8~~of $19.6 million ~~which~~ represents the maximum amount we would access on the ABL Facility and is adjusted for eligible receivables plus eligible borrowing base cash measured at September 30, ~~2019. As~~2020. The credit agreement governing the ABL Facility permits adjustments from eligible borrowing base cash to restricted cash prior to the compliance measurement date of ~~September 30, 2019, our cash and cash equivalents and Managed Accessibility were $150.1 million.~~

October 15, 2020.

The table below summarizes cash and cash equivalents and Managed Accessibility as of September 30, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018:~~2019:

(in millions)	September 30, 2020		December 31, 2019
Cash and cash equivalents	$	434.1	$	109.2
Amounts placed (into)/out of restricted cash subsequent to period end		—		(29.0	)
Managed Accessibility		19.6		0.2
Total cash and cash equivalents and Managed Accessibility	$	453.7	$	80.4

Outside of funding normal operations, our principal uses of cash include ~~making contributions to various multi-employer pension funds and our single-employer pension plans, and meeting our other cash obligations including,~~but are but not limited to, paying principal and interest on our funded debt, making payments on our equipment leases, and funding capital expenditures.

In addition, we are required to make contributions to our non-union pension plans.

As of September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, we had ~~$906.3~~$1,155.6 million in aggregate par value of outstanding indebtedness, the majority of which matures in approximately three to five years. In addition, we have, and will continue to have, significant operating lease obligations. As of September 30, 2020, our operating lease payment obligations through 2030 totaled $383.9 million. We also have future funding obligations for our various multi-employer health, welfare and pension funds and ~~single-employer~~non-union pension plans. We expect our funding obligations for the remainder of 2019 for our multi-employer pension funds and single-employer pension plans will be $34.7 million and $2.2 million, respectively. In addition, we have, and will continue to have, operating lease obligations. As of September 30, 2019, our operating lease payment obligations through 2030 totaled $470.2 million and are expected to increase as we lease additional revenue equipment. For the first three quarters of 2019, we entered into new operating leases for revenue equipment totaling $94.6 million in future lease payments, payable over an average lease term of four years.

Our capital expenditures for the first three quarters of 2020 and 2019 ~~and 2018~~ were ~~$111.5~~$41.4 million and ~~$92.4~~$111.5 million, respectively. These amounts were principally used to fund the purchase of new and used revenue equipment, for capitalized costs to improve our technology infrastructure and to refurbish engines for our revenue fleet. ~~For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 we entered into~~Our activity related to new operating lease commitments for revenue equipment ~~with a capital equivalent value~~was nominal during the first three quarters of ~~$113.3 million.~~

~~As of September 30, 2019, our Standard & Poor’s Corporate Family Rating was “B-” with a stable outlook and Moody’s Investor Service Corporate Family Rating was “B2” with a stable outlook.~~

2020.

Covenants

The ~~New Term Loan Agreement includes~~TL Agreements include a financial covenant requirement for the Company to maintain a minimum ~~of $200.0 million trailing-twelve-month Adjusted EBITDA, measured quarterly. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, defined~~Liquidity. The Company is in our New Term Loan Agreement as “Consolidated EBITDA,” is a measure that reflects our earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization expense, and is further adjusted for, among other things, letter of credit fees, equity-based compensation expense, net gains or losses on property disposals, restructuring charges, transaction costs related to issuances of debt, non-recurring consulting fees, non-cash impairment charges and the gains or losses from permitted dispositions, discontinued operations, and certain non-cash expenses, charges and losses (provided that if any of such non-cash expenses, charges or losses represents an accrual or reserve for potential cash items in any future period, the cash payment in respect thereof in such future period will be subtracted from Consolidated EBITDA in such future period to the extent paid). The definition was further modified under the New Term Loan Agreement such that certain expenses that qualify as adjustments are capped at 10.0% of the trailing-twelve-month Adjusted EBITDA, in aggregate. Adjustments subject to the 10.0% cap include, but are not limited to, restructuring charges, integration costs, severance, and non-recurring charges. Additionally, all net gains from the disposition of properties are excluded from the definition of Adjusted EBITDA, therefore any gains previously recognized in Adjusted EBITDA, as that term was previously defined in our SEC filings, in accordance with its definition in the Prior Term Loan Agreement, will not be included in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA under the New Term Loan Agreement.

~~Risks and Uncertainties Regarding Compliance with Credit Facility Financial Covenants~~

~~We believe that our results of operations will allow us to comply~~compliance with the ~~minimum Adjusted EBITDA~~applicable financial covenant inas of September 30, 2020.

The only applicable financial covenant until December 31, 2021 is the ~~New Term Loan Agreement~~Liquidity requirement of $125.0 million. With Liquidity as of September 30, 2020 of $453.7 million, UST loan availability, and forecasted operating results, management concludes it probable the Company will meet this covenant requirement for ~~at least~~ the next twelve months, subject to specific actions and cost savings initiatives we are taking in the fourth quarter of 2019 and the first quarter of 2020 to provide additional Adjusted EBITDA. These actions include headcount reductions commensurate with our current volume levels, a hiring freeze on new and replacement positions, temporary elimination of short-term incentive compensation and a reduction in discretionary spend. We are taking these actions because we have not been able to fully realize operational efficiencies arising from our New NMFA due to depressed volume levels. Our ability to satisfy our liquidity needs and meet our minimum Adjusted EBITDA requirement during the next twelve months and thereafter is dependent upon our ability to achieve operating results that reflect improvement over our first half 2019, which were negatively impacted by the process to obtain our five-year labor agreement scheduled to expire on March 31, 2019 and successfully ratified on May 14, 2019. Significant adverse conditions, which may result from changes in global trade policies or increased contraction in the general economy, may impact our ability to achieve a minimum Adjusted EBITDA above $200.0 million on a trailing-twelve-month basis. Means for improving our profitability include accelerated implementation of network optimization, specific initiatives in the areas of pricing and customer engagement, and other operational actions to improve productivity and efficiency, as well as increased volume, all of which may not be within our control. If we are unable to achieve the improved results required

to comply with this covenant in one or more quarters over the next twelve months, we may be required to take specific actions in addition to those described above, including but not limited to, additional reductions in headcount, targeted procurement initiatives to reduce operating costs and accelerating terminal closures to reduce overhead and other operating costs, or alternatively, seeking an amendment or waiver from our lenders or taking other remedial measures.

Cash Flows

Operating Cash Flow

Cash provided by operating activities was $108.5 million during the first three quarters of 2020, compared to $13.4 million during the first three quarters of ~~2019, compared to $157.9 million of cash provided during the first three quarters of 2018.~~2019. The ~~decrease~~increase in cash provided was primarily attributable to ~~a $91.4~~deferrals of various payments recorded as other operating liabilities. Under the CARES Act, we are deferring payment of certain employer payroll taxes that resulted in $57.9 million ~~decrease~~of liabilities as of September 30, 2020 for the remainder of 2020, with 50% due December 31, 2021 and 50% due December 31, 2022 as detailed in ~~income, and~~our Contractual Cash Obligations table. Lease payments were $18.8 million lower during the ~~remaining difference is~~first three quarters of 2020, as compared to the first three quarters of 2019. Cash paid for lease payments decreased primarily ~~related~~due to ~~timing differences in working capital accounts.~~

lease payment deferrals. Other operating liabilities increased $75.5 million, which includes accrued payroll tax deferrals. In addition, for the nine months ended 2020 the Company incurred $40.5 million of interest expenses that were paid-in-kind.

Investing Cash Flow

Cash ~~used in~~provided by investing activities was ~~$101.6~~$13.9 million during the first three quarters of ~~2019~~2020 compared to ~~$87.5~~$101.6 million used during the first three quarters of ~~2018.~~2019. The increase of ~~$14.1~~$115.5 million in cash provided was largely driven by ~~higher revenue equipment acquisitions partially offset by higher~~ cash proceeds from the sale of real ~~property.~~

property as well as a reduction to cash outflows on revenue equipment acquisitions. Cash used by investing cash flows during the remainder of 2020 are expected to increase due to increased capital expenditures as the Company anticipates utilizing funds from the UST Credit Agreements.

Financing Cash Flow

Cash ~~used in~~provided by financing activities for the first three quarters of ~~2019 and 2018~~2020 was $206.9 million compared to $18.1 million ~~and $22.9 million, respectively.~~used during the first three quarters of 2019. The ~~payment of $11.1 million~~increase in ~~deferred debt issuance costs and the favorable impact~~cash is primarily related to ~~cash of obtaining our New Term Loan reduced our cash used when compared to 2018, which consisted primarily of repayments~~amounts drawn on our ~~long-term debt under our Prior Term Loan.~~

UST Credit

Agreement Tranche A. Cash provided by financing activities during the fourth quarter of 2020 will include additional funds drawn to acquire tractors and trailers as described by the UST Credit Agreements.

New Board Member Appointments

On October 27, 2020, the ~~covenants in our New Term Loan Agreement could materially adversely affect out financial condition~~Board of Directors (the “Board”) of YRC Worldwide Inc. (the “Company”) appointed Susana Martinez and ~~liquidity.~~

The documents governing our indebtedness contain financial covenants, affirmative covenants requiring us to take certain actions and negative covenants restricting our ability to take certain actions. In particular, our New Term Loan Agreement contains a financial covenant that requires us to maintain minimum trailing-twelve-month Adjusted EBITDA of $200.0 million. For additional information, see the “Debt and Financing” footnoteShaunna D. Jones to the ~~consolidated financial statements.~~

~~We believe~~Board, each to serve until the 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The Board anticipates that ~~our results~~Gov. Martinez and Ms. Jones will be nominated by the Board for election by the stockholders at that meeting and going forward.

The Board has appointed Gov. Martinez to serve on the Compensation Committee and as the Chairperson of ~~operations will allow us~~the Governance Committee and Ms. Jones to ~~comply with~~serve on the ~~minimum Adjusted EBITDA covenant in the New Term Loan Agreement for at least the next twelve months, subject~~Audit and Ethics Committee and Governance Committee. There are no arrangements or understanding that exist between Gov. Martinez or Ms. Jones and any other persons pursuant to ~~specific actions and cost savings initiatives we~~which either was selected as a director. In addition, there are ~~taking in the fourth quarter of 2019~~no transactions between either Gov. Martinez or Ms. Jones and the ~~first quarter~~Company that would be reportable under Item 404(a) of ~~2020~~Regulation S-K.

Each of Gov. Martinez and Ms. Jones will receive the same cash and equity compensation as the other non-employee directors serving on the Board pursuant to ~~provide additional Adjusted EBITDA. These actions include headcount reductions commensurate with our current volume levels, a hiring freeze~~the Company’s Fourth Amended and Restated Director Compensation Plan (the “Plan”), as amended, which has been filed as Exhibit 10.5.1 to the Company’s Annual Report on new and replacement positions, temporary elimination of short-term incentive compensation and a reduction in discretionary spend. We are taking these actions because we have not been able to fully realize operational efficiencies arising from our New NMFA due to depressed volume levels. Our ability to satisfy our liquidity needs and meet our minimum Adjusted EBITDA requirement duringForm 10-K for the next twelve months and thereafter is dependent upon our ability to achieve operating results that reflect improvement over our first half 2019, which were negatively impacted by the process to obtain our five-year labor agreement scheduled to expire on Marchyear ended December 31, 2019 and ~~successfully ratified~~incorporated herein by reference. Pursuant to the Plan, each new director will receive an annual cash retainer of $190,000, paid quarterly. In addition, each will be entitled to receive an annual grant of restricted stock units equal to $60,000 divided by the 30-day average closing price of our common stock on ~~May 14, 2019.

Mr. Pierson will also receive a portion of the time-vested restricted shares he was previously granted that were scheduled to vest in December 2020 and February 2021 based on a proration calculation from the date of grant through the date of separation as provided under his current equity agreements.

Appointment of Interim Chief Financial Officer and Chief Accounting Officer

On October 29, 2020, the Board appointed Daniel L. Olivier to serve as the Company’s Interim Chief Financial Officer and James R. Faught to serve as the Company’s Chief Accounting Officer.

Mr. Olivier, age 48, has been employed by the Company since 1997 in various positions of increasing responsibility. Most recently, Mr. Olivier served as Vice President, Financial Reporting and Analysis since October 2019 and has served as Vice President Finance at USF Holland since April 2008. Mr. Olivier previously served as the Company’s Interim Treasurer from July to December 2010.

Mr. Faught, age 39, has served as Vice President - Controller of the Company since February 2020 and prior thereto as Director of Financial Reporting since July 2017. Prior to joining the Company, Mr. Faught served as the Director of Financial Planning & Analysis for ROM Acquisition Corp (Safe Fleet), a provider of safety and productivity solutions to fleet vehicles manufacturers and operators, since 2014. At Safe Fleet, Mr. Faught was responsible for financial reporting, treasury operations, budgeting and cash management, among other responsibilities.

In connection with their appointments, the base salary of Messrs. Olivier and Faught will be $400,000 and $250,000 per annum, respectively. In addition, Messrs. Olivier and Faught will be entitled to participate in the Company’s executive compensation program with a short-term incentive program target potential payout of 100% of their respective base salary, with a maximum earnings opportunity of 200% of target along with potential long-term incentive opportunities as established by the Compensation Committee of the Board.

There are no arrangements or understanding that exist between Messrs. Olivier or Faught and any other persons pursuant to which either was selected as an officer. In addition, there are no transactions between either Messrs. Olivier or Faught and the Company that would be reportable under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

Amendment to Bylaws

On October 29, 2020, the Board adopted resolutions amending Section 5.3 of the Amended and Restated Bylaws (adopted as of September 16, 2011) (the “Bylaws”) of the Company to add a new paragraph (b) as set forth below:

(b) Each of the Chairman of the Board and the Chief Executive Officer shall serve as ex-officio members of all committees of the Board on which each does not otherwise serve as a member. Each ex-officio member or members of any committee shall be entitled to be present in person, to present matters for consideration and to take part in consideration of any business by the committee at any meeting of the committee, but which ex-officio member or members shall not be counted for purposes of a quorum nor for purposes of voting or otherwise in any way for purposes of authorizing any act or other transaction of business by such committee. The Chairman of the Board as an ex-officio member may notice and call any meeting of a committee in accordance with the procedures set for by the committee in accordance with Section 5.4 below.

The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Company’s Amendment to Amended and Restated By-Laws, as adopted and effective on October 29, 2020, a copy of which ~~may not be within our control. If we are unable to achieve the improved results, we may face challenges to comply with this covenant in one or more quarters over the next twelve months~~is filed herewith as Exhibit 3.1 and we may be required to pursue certain actions in addition to the ones described above for the fourth quarter of 2019 and the first quarter of 2020, including but not limited to, additional headcount reductions, targeted procurement initiatives to reduce operating costs and/or seeking other cost reductions. Some of those actions might adversely affect our operations and financial performance over the long-term.

incorporated by reference.

Any covenant breach or other event of default could enable lenders thereunder to accelerate the repayment of amounts outstanding and exercise remedies with respect to the collateral. If our lenders under our credit facilities demand payment, we will not have sufficient cash to repay such indebtedness. In addition, a default under our credit facilities or the lenders exercising their remedies thereunder could trigger cross-default provisions in our other indebtedness and certain other operating agreements.

In addition, any covenant breach or event of default could harm our credit rating and our ability to obtain financing on acceptable terms. The occurrence of any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and liquidity.

If our relationship with our employees and unions were to deteriorate, we may be faced with labor disruptions or stoppages or general uncertainty by our customers, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, result in a loss of customers, and place us at a disadvantage relative to non-union competitors.

Each of our operating subsidiaries has employees who are represented by the International Brotherhood of Teamsters (“IBT”). These employees comprised 79% of our workforce at September 30, 2019. Salaries, wages and employee benefits for both union and non-union employees compose over half of our operating costs. Each of our YRC Freight, New Penn, and Holland subsidiaries employ most of their unionized employees under the terms of a common, master collective bargaining agreement and related supplemental agreements that remain in effect through March 31, 2024, and Reddaway employs most of its unionized employees

under a collective bargaining agreement that expires March 31, 2021. The IBT also represents a number of employees at YRC Freight in Canada under more localized agreements, which have wages, benefit contributions and other terms and conditions that we believe better fit the cost structure and operating models of this entity.

Our subsidiaries are regularly subject to grievances, arbitration proceedings and other claims concerning alleged past and current non-compliance with applicable labor law and collective bargaining agreements. We cannot predict the outcome of any of these matters. These matters, if resolved in a manner unfavorable to us, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations.
