Air, said, "We selected XPO Logistics for this critical role in our supply chain
based on the strength of its global experience and ability to continuously
improve logistics processes. Sealed Air looks forward to innovating with the XPO
team to increase operational efficiency and ensure the highest level of service
for our customers."

and transportation management services in Europe, and with intermodal and less-
than-truckload transportation in North America. The new contract represents a
significant expansion of the relationship between the two companies.
