Part III -- Narrative
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K,
10-Q, N-SAR, or the transition report, or portion thereof, could not be filed
within the prescribed time period.
CD&L, Inc. (the "Company") is unable to file its quarterly report on
Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2001 within the time period prescribed
for such report without unreasonable effort or expense. On March 30, 2001, the
Company consummated a transaction providing for the sale of certain assets and
liabilities of Sureway Air Traffic Corporation, Inc., its air delivery business.
As a result of this transaction, the Company is required to reclassify the
activities of the air delivery business as discontinued operations in its prior
year financial statements. The Company expects to have finalized the
reclassification of the prior year financial statements within the time-frame
granted for filing the Company's report on Form 10-Q by Rule 12b-25(b).
Part IV -- Other Information
(1) Name and telephone number of person to contact in regard to this
notification.

(2) Have all other periodic reports required under Sections 13 or 15(d)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company
Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the
registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed? If answer is no,
identify report(s).
|X| Yes |_| No
(3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of
operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be
reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or
portion thereof?
|X| Yes |_| No
If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively
and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable
estimate of the results cannot be made.
Operating income, on a comparable basis, for the three months ended March 31,
2001 will be approximately $2,200,000 higher than the operating income reported
for the three months ended March 31, 2000. This variance is due to both an
improvement in profit margin as well as decreased selling, general and
administrative expenses. The decrease in cost of revenue is mainly due to the
Company's efforts to eliminate less profitable business. The decrease in
selling, general and administrative expenses is primarily attributable to
ongoing efforts to reduce and better control such costs and certain
non-recurring items recorded during the first quarter of 2000.
