DEREGISTRATION OF SHARES
As originally filed on November 17, 2000, this Registration Statement
registered 50,000 shares of the Common Stock of Covenant Transport, Inc. (the
"Company") which had been approved for issuance under the Company's Outside
Director Stock Option Plan (the "Outside Director Plan"). The Company now has
adopted a new plan, the Covenant Transport, Inc. 2003 Incentive Stock Plan (the
"2003 Plan") to which shares remaining available for grant under the Outside
Director Plan may be transferred for the purpose of new grants. As of May 31,
2003, a total of 45,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock were subject to
outstanding but unexercised option grants, and a total of 5,000 shares were
reserved for future stock grants under the Outside Director Plan. This
post-effective Amendment is being filed to deregister all shares of the
Company's stock reserved for issuance under the Outside Director Plan that are
not subject to outstanding but unexercised option grants.
Accordingly, this post-effective Amendment is being filed to deregister
5,000 shares previously registered for the Outside Director Plan. A new Form S-8
Registration Statement will be filed by the Company to register shares issuable
under the 2003 Plan.
