PROXY STATEMENT FOR ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

TO BE HELD DECEMBER 11, 2014

GENERAL INFORMATION

This proxy statement ("Proxy Statement") is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors of Celadon Group, Inc. (the "Company") to be voted at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company (the "Annual Meeting"), which will be held on Wednesday, December 11, 2014, beginning at 10 a.m. local time, at our principal executive offices located at 9503 East 33rd Street, One Celadon Drive, Indianapolis, Indiana, 46235, and any adjournment thereof.

A Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the "Internet Notice") was first mailed on or about October 28, 2014 to stockholders of record at the close of business on October 13, 2014 (the "Record Date"). The Internet Notice will instruct you as to how you may access and review the proxy materials. The Proxy Statement, the proxy card, and our Annual Report are first being made available to stockholders on October 28, 2014.

The terms "Company," "we," "us," and "our" refer to Celadon Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

Voting by Proxy

THE ENCLOSED PROXY IS SOLICITED BY OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS. When a proxy is executed and returned prior to the Annual Meeting, the proxy will be voted according to the instructions made by the stockholder when granting the proxy. Where specific choices are not indicated, all proxies received pursuant to this solicitation will be voted (i) FOR the election of the director nominees named below; (ii) FOR approval of the advisory resolution on executive compensation; and (iii) with respect to any other matters properly brought before the Annual Meeting, in accordance with the recommendations of the Board of Directors, or, if no recommendations are given, in accordance with the judgment of the proxy holders. We have not received notice of other matters that properly may be presented for voting at the Annual Meeting.

Your executed proxy appoints each person appointed to vote the proxies as your duly authorized attorney-in-fact and gives such person the power to represent and vote at the Annual Meeting all shares of our outstanding common stock that you are entitled to vote as a stockholder. Such person will vote your shares as instructed by you on your proxy. If you do not provide voting instructions on Proposals 1 or 2, or for any other matters properly presented at the Annual Meeting, your proxy also gives such person the discretionary authority to vote your shares represented thereby as recommended above by the Board of Directors and in accordance with such person's best judgment.

Voting Rights

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on the Record Date ("Stockholders") are entitled to vote, either in person or by valid proxy, at the Annual Meeting. As of the close of business on the Record Date, there were issued and outstanding 23,648,633 shares of common stock, par value $.033 per share, entitled to cast votes on all matters subject to a vote at the Annual Meeting. The total number of issued and outstanding shares excludes approximately 822,198 shares of common stock underlying issued and outstanding stock options granted under our incentive stock plans and other arrangements. Stockholders are entitled to one vote for each share of common stock held of record. Holders of unexercised options or other rights to acquire common stock are not entitled to vote the underlying shares at the Annual Meeting, but holders of restricted stock are entitled to vote such shares at the Annual Meeting. We have no other class of stock outstanding. Stockholders are not entitled to cumulative voting in the election of directors.

Table of Contents

Quorum Requirement

In order to transact business at the Annual Meeting, a quorum must be present. A quorum is present if the holders of a majority of the total number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of the Record Date are represented at the Annual Meeting in person or by proxy. Shares that are entitled to vote but that are not voted at the direction of the holder (called "abstentions") and shares that are not voted by a broker or other record holder due to the absence of instructions from the beneficial owner (called "broker non-votes") will be counted for the purpose of determining whether a quorum is present.

Required Vote

Directors are elected by an affirmative vote of a plurality of the votes cast by Stockholders entitled to vote and represented in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting, which means the director nominees receiving the highest number of votes for their election will be elected as directors. Approval of any other matter properly submitted to Stockholders for action at the Annual Meeting requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by Stockholders entitled to vote and represented in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting, unless a different vote is required by law or our certificate of incorporation or bylaws. Abstentions and broker non-votes are not considered affirmative votes and thus will have no effect on the election of directors by a plurality vote, but will have the same effect as negative votes with respect to the approval of any other matter submitted to Stockholders.

Voting Instructions

Your method of stock ownership determines the method by which you may vote your shares. If your shares are registered directly in your name in the stock register and stock transfer books of the Company or with our transfer agent, you are a "registered holder" and considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares. If you hold your shares through a broker, rather than holding shares registered directly in your name, you are considered a "beneficial owner" of shares held in street name. Beneficial owners have the right to instruct their broker how to vote the shares held in their account.

If you are a registered holder of record of our common stock, you may vote your shares either by (i) telephone by calling a toll-free number, (ii) using the Internet and visiting the designated website, (iii) mailing in your proxy card, or (iv) attending the Annual Meeting and notifying and obtaining a ballot from the Secretary prior to the occurrence of any votes. We have arranged for telephone and Internet-voting procedures to be used. These procedures have been designed to authenticate your identity, to allow you to give instructions, and to confirm that those instructions have been recorded properly. If you choose to vote by telephone or by using the Internet by accessing the designated website, please refer to the specific instructions on the proxy card. The deadline for voting by telephone or the Internet is 11:59 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on Tuesday, December 10, 2014. If you wish to vote using the proxy card, please complete, sign, and date your proxy card and return it to us before the Annual Meeting.

Beneficial owners who hold their shares in street name will need to obtain a voting instruction form from the broker or institution that holds their stock and must follow the voting instructions given by that broker or institution. A beneficial owner of shares may not vote in person at the Annual Meeting unless they obtain from their broker or institution a legal proxy that gives you the right to vote the shares.

Right to Attend the Meeting; Revocation of Proxy

Returning a proxy now will not interfere with a Stockholder's right to attend the Annual Meeting or to vote his or her shares personally at the Annual Meeting, if he or she wishes to do so. Stockholders who execute and return proxies may revoke them at any time before they are exercised by giving written notice of revocation to our Secretary at the address of our principal executive offices, by executing a subsequent proxy and delivering it to our Secretary at such address, or by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person.

Costs of Solicitation

We will bear the cost of solicitation of proxies, which we expect to be nominal and will include reimbursements for the charges and expenses of brokerage firms and others for forwarding solicitation materials to beneficial owners of our outstanding common stock. Proxies will be solicited by mail and may be solicited personally by directors, officers, or regular employees, who will not receive any additional compensation for any such services.

EACH STOCKHOLDER SHOULD READ THIS INFORMATION BEFORE COMPLETING AND RETURNING THE ENCLOSED PROXY CARD.

Electronic Access to Proxy Statement and Form 10-K

This Proxy Statement and our 2014 Form 10-K may be viewed online at www.celadontrucking.com; provided, you may not cast any votes through our website. If you are a Stockholder, you can elect to receive future Forms 10-K and proxy statements electronically by marking the appropriate box on your proxy form. If you choose this option and remain a stockholder at such time, you will receive a proxy form prior to the next Annual Meeting of Stockholders listing the website locations at which the Form 10-K and proxy statement can be found and your choice will remain in effect until you notify us by mail that you wish to resume mail delivery of these documents. If you hold our stock through a bank, broker, or another holder of record, refer to the information provided by that entity for instructions on how to elect this option. Selecting this option will save us the time and expense of printing and mailing these materials to you.

PROPOSAL NO. 1 – ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

At the Annual Meeting, Stockholders will elect directors to serve as the Board of Directors until our Annual Meeting of Stockholders following our 2015 fiscal year or until their successors are duly elected and qualified. Upon recommendation by the Compensation and Nominating Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Compensation Committee"), our Board of Directors has nominated Stephen Russell, Anthony Heyworth, Catherine Langham, Michael Miller, and Paul Will, for election as directors. Each of these nominees is presently serving as a director. Pursuant to our by-laws, the permissible number of directors which constitute the Board of Directors may range from not less than two (2) to not more than ten (10). In addition to the five (5) incumbent directors and subject to stockholder approval, the Compensation Committee has also nominated Robert Long to serve on the Board of Directors as the sixth (6th) member. Accordingly, if all incumbent directors and Mr. Long are elected, the size of the Board of Directors will automatically increase to six (6). In the absence of contrary instructions, each proxy will be voted for the election of all of the proposed directors.

If any of the nominees named above become unable for any reason or unwilling for good cause to serve as a director, the Board of Directors may designate a substitute nominee. In that case, the proxy holders will vote for the substitute nominee designated by the Board of Directors.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" EACH OF THE DIRECTOR NOMINEES.

Table of Contents

Nominees for Directorships

Information concerning the names, ages, positions with the Company, tenure as a director, and business experience of nominees standing for election as directors at the Annual Meeting, as well as the specific attributes qualifying each nominee for a directorship, is set forth below. All references to experience with the Company include positions within our operating subsidiaries. All executive officers are elected annually by the Board of Directors.

Stephen Russell, 74, has been our Chairman of the Board (“Chairman”) since our inception in July 1986 and served as Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") from July 1986 until December 2012, when he transitioned to serving solely as Chairman. He continues to serve as Chairman in a non-employee role. He was our President from September 2000 to October 2004. Mr. Russell's leadership and industry knowledge helped guide our Company through periods when volatile economic conditions persisted. In addition to his role within our Company, he previously served as a member of the American Trucking Associations' (“ATA”) Executive Committee, Chairman of the ATA’s Audit Committee, Chairman of the ATA’s Homeland Security Policy Committee, and as a member of the Board of the Truckload Carriers Association. Mr. Russell also has served as Chairman of the Board of Governors of the Indianapolis Museum of Art. The Board believes that Mr. Russell's significant and extensive understanding of our business and industry developed over the past 25 years, as well as his leadership skills, qualify him for continued service as a director and the Chairman of the Board.

Anthony Heyworth, 70, has been one of our directors since 1999. Mr. Heyworth is Chairman of the Audit and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”) and a member of the Compensation Committee. Mr. Heyworth retired from KeyCorp in February 2001 as Vice Chairman, Commercial Banking, KeyBank N.A., after a 36 year career with this financial services company. He also served as Chairman, President, and CEO of Keybank – Indiana, Michigan, and Florida from 1989 to 2001. He joined the former Central National Bank in 1965 and was Executive Vice President when the bank merged with Society National Bank of Cleveland in 1986 and KeyBank in 1994. Mr. Heyworth has a long and extensive experience with our business. The Board believes that Mr. Heyworth's significant leadership experience with financial institutions, understanding of financial statements, and long tenure as one of our directors qualifies him well to assist the Board in navigating complex financial issues and serving as a Board member.

Catherine Langham, 56, has served as a director since July 2007. She is a member of both the Audit Committee and the Compensation Committee. Ms. Langham is President and Chief Executive Officer of Langham Logistics, Inc. ("LLI"), a global freight management company specializing in expedited transportation, warehousing, and distribution based in Indianapolis, Indiana. Ms. Langham has been with LLI since its inception over twenty years ago and brings extensive experience in the logistics industry to her role as a director. Ms. Langham serves, as a director of The Finish Line, Inc., and as a director of H.H. Gregg. Ms. Langham was a director of Marsh Supermarket, Inc. from 1998 through September 2006 and previously served as a member of the Regions Bank Board of Advisors, as a member of the Board of the Indiana Economic Development Corporation, as Chairperson of the Greater Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce, and as the Chairperson of the Board of the National Association of Women Business Owners, Indiana Chapter, and of the Air Forwarders Association. Ms. Langham's experience provides the Board with unique insight into business development and management oversight. The Board believes Ms. Langham's extensive experience serving on Boards coupled with her strategic planning, business development, industry knowledge, and management skills qualify her to serve on our Board.

Michael Miller, 69, has been one of our directors since February 1992. Mr. Miller is our Lead Director and a member of the Audit Committee and the Chairman of the Compensation Committee. Mr. Miller has been Chairman of the Board and CEO of Aarnel Funding Corporation, a venture capital/real estate company, since 1974, a partner of Independence Realty, an owner and manager of real estate properties since 1989, and President and CEO of Miller Investment Company, Inc., a private investment company, since 1990. Mr. Miller previously served as President, Secretary, Treasurer, and director of Morlex, Inc., a "blank check" shell public company. Mr. Miller has a long and extensive experience with our business. The Board believes that Mr. Miller's extensive history with our Company, coupled with his senior executive, operating, corporate governance, finance and financial accounting oversight experience from publicly and privately held companies, qualify him to serve on our Board.

Robert Long, 60, is a nominee for director. Mr. Long retired from KPMG in December 2006 as managing partner of the firm’s Indianapolis office.

The Board believes Mr. Long’s extensive accounting and public company experience, including his board experience, qualifies him to serve on our Board.

Paul Will, 48, was named CEO in December 2012, and has served as a director since August 2007. He continues to serve as our President, a position he has held since November 2010. He was Vice-Chairman of the Board from August 2007 to December 2012. He was COO and President from July 2011 to December 2012.

Mr. Will is a certified public accountant and formerly served as Chairman of the American Trucking Associations' National Accounting and Finance Council. The Board believes that Mr. Will's significant knowledge and thorough understanding of our business operations and industry, which is attributed to his long-term professional experience with our Company, and his financial background qualify him to serve on our Board. Mr. Will's experience serving in various positions within our Company provides us with unique insight into the different challenges and opportunities facing the Company.

Pursuant to Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, our certificate of incorporation provides that we shall, to the full extent permitted by law, indemnify all of our directors, officers, incorporators, employees, and agents against liability for certain of their acts. Our certificate of incorporation also provides that, with a number of exceptions, none of our directors shall be liable to us for damages for breach of a fiduciary duty as a director.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Applicable Corporate Governance

Our common stock has been listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") since November 2009 and we are subject to the NYSE listing standards, including those related to corporate governance. Prior to listing on the NYSE, our common stock was traded on the Nasdaq Global Select Market ("NASDAQ"), and we were subject to the NASDAQ listing standards, including those related to corporate governance. As a publicly traded company, we are also subject to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

The Board of Directors

Meetings. Our Board of Directors held ten (10) meetings during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014. No director attended less than 75% of the meetings of the Board of Directors and each committee on which he or she served. In addition, all directors are encouraged to attend the Annual Meeting, although we do not have a formal policy regarding director attendance at annual meetings. All of our then-current directors attended the Annual Meeting of Stockholders following our 2013 fiscal year.

Independent Directors. Our Compensation Committee, which is also responsible for the nomination of candidates for the Board of Directors, has reviewed (i) the SEC regulatory and NYSE listing standards for assessing the independence of our directors and director nominees, (ii) the criteria for determining each such individual's independence specifically for purposes of serving on the Audit Committee and Compensation Committee and as an "audit committee financial expert," and (iii) each such individual's professional experience, education, skills, ability to provide differences of viewpoint, and other qualities among our Board membership.

Table of Contents

After concluding its review, the Compensation Committee submitted its independence recommendation for our Board of Directors. Our Board then made its independence determinations based on the Compensation Committee's recommendations.

Upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the Board has determined that the following directors are “independent” under NYSE Rule 303A.02: Anthony Heyworth, Catherine Langham, Michael Miller (collectively, the "Independent Directors"). The Board has determined that Mr. Long, nominee for director, is also "independent" under NYSE Rule 303A.02. Except in their capacities as directors or as holders of an immaterial amount of securities of other entities, none of the Independent Directors and Mr. Long either directly or in his or her capacity as a partner, stockholder, officer, or similar position of another organization, has or in the past three years had any business or financial relationship with us or any of our subsidiaries. None of the Independent Directors and Mr. Long or any of their immediate family members has or had any of the disqualifying relationships with us or our subsidiaries specified in NYSE Rule 303A.02.

Executive Sessions. In 2014, pursuant to NYSE Rule 303A.03, our Independent Directors held five (5) meetings, referred to as “executive sessions,” at which only the Independent Directors were present. Mr. Miller currently serves as the Lead Outside Director and will continue in that capacity following the Annual Meeting. The Lead Outside Director acts as the lead independent director and is the presiding director for all executive sessions. Our Independent Directors will continue to hold at least two meetings annually at which only independent directors are present.

Board Leadership Structure. The Board is currently composed of five (5) directors, and is proposed to expand to six (6) members if Mr. Long is elected. Stephen Russell has been our Chairman of the Board since the Company’s inception and served as the CEO from July 1986 until December 2012, when Paul Will became the CEO. Prior to December 2012, we believe that having Mr. Russell serve in both roles was optimal considering his experience with the Company and the suitability of this structure for facilitating proper and efficient Board functioning and communication. Mr. Miller served as the lead independent director while Mr. Russell served as both Chairman and CEO until December 2012. As the Company has continued to grow and our industry becomes increasingly complex, we believed it was appropriate to split the positions of Chairman and CEO between Mr. Russell and Mr. Will, respectively, which occurred in December 2012. This modified structure allows the Chairman and CEO to dedicate more time to the demands and responsibilities of each individual position, which we believe is an appropriate structure as we continue to grow. Mr. Miller continues to serve as the lead independent director.

Risk Oversight. The Board of Directors has assigned the assessment of risk to the Audit Committee. Management reports to the Audit Committee with respect to the overall enterprise risk environment, including both business and financial risk of the Company’s operations. The Audit Committee works closely with management to identify and evaluate risk and reports directly to the Board of Directors.

Communications with the Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors has adopted procedures by which our stockholders may communicate with members of the Board of Directors, including the independent directors, individually or as a group. If you wish to communicate with the entire Board of Directors, you may send correspondence to them addressed as follows: The Board of Directors, Celadon Group, Inc., c/o Paul Will – President and CEO, 9503 East 33rd Street, One Celadon Drive, Indianapolis, Indiana, 46235. Written communications addressed in this manner will be copied and distributed to each director at or prior to the next meeting of the Board of Directors. If you wish to communicate with an individual director, you may send correspondence addressed to him or her as follows: Name – Director, Celadon Group, Inc., c/o Paul Will – President and CEO, 9503 East 33rd Street, One Celadon Drive, Indianapolis, Indiana 46235. Written communications received in this manner will not be opened, but rather delivered unopened to the director to whom they are addressed at or prior to the next meeting of the Board of Directors, following clearance through normal security procedures.

Committees of the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors has a standing Audit Committee and a Compensation Committee. The Board of Directors does not maintain any other standing committees.

Table of Contents

Audit Committee

Functions, Meetings, and Composition of the Audit Committee. The responsibilities of the Audit Committee are set forth in the Audit Committee Report, which appears below. The Audit Committee met four (4) times during fiscal 2014. Mr. Heyworth, Ms. Langham, and Mr. Miller served on the Audit Committee, with Mr. Heyworth serving as the chairperson. Each member of the Audit Committee satisfies the independence and audit committee membership criteria set forth in NYSE Rule 303A.07. Specifically, each member of the Audit Committee:

·	is independent under NYSE Rule 303A.02;
·	meets the criteria for independence set forth in Rule 10A-3(b)(1) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"); and
·	is financially literate, as our Board of Directors has interpreted such qualification in its business judgment.

Audit Committee Financial Expert. The Board of Directors has determined that at least one "audit committee financial expert," as defined under Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K, currently serves on the Audit Committee. The Board of Directors has identified Mr. Heyworth as an audit committee financial expert. Mr. Heyworth is "independent", as independence for audit committee members is defined under applicable SEC and NYSE rules. The Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Heyworth possesses adequate accounting and related financial management expertise, as our Board interprets such qualifications in its business judgment under relevant SEC and NYSE rules.

Audit Committee Charter. Our Audit Committee operates pursuant to a written charter detailing its purpose, powers, and duties. The Audit Committee reviews and reassesses the adequacy of its formal written charter on an annual basis. A copy of the Audit Committee's current charter is available on our website at http://www.celadontrucking.com.

Audit Committee Report. In performing its duties, the Audit Committee, pursuant to applicable Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") rules, issues a report recommending to the Board of Directors that our audited financial statements be included in the Form 10-K, and relating to certain other matters, including the independence of our public accounting firm. The fiscal 2014 Report of the Audit Committee is set forth below.

The Report of the Audit Committee shall not be deemed to be "soliciting material" or to otherwise be considered "filed" with the SEC, nor shall this report be subject to Regulation 14A or Regulation 14C (other than as indicated) or to the liabilities set forth in Section 18 of the Exchange Act. This Report of the Audit Committee also shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any prior or subsequent filing with the SEC made by us under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or the Exchange Act, notwithstanding any general statement contained in any such filings incorporating this Proxy Statement by reference, except to the extent we incorporate such report by specific reference.

Audit Committee Report for Fiscal 2014

The primary purpose of the Audit Committee is to assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities relating to the quality and integrity of our financial reports and financial reporting processes and financial reporting internal control systems. Management has primary responsibility for the preparation, accuracy, integrity, and fair presentation of our financial statements and the overall reporting process, including maintenance of our internal control systems. We retain an independent registered public accounting firm that is responsible for conducting an independent audit of our financial statements, the effectiveness of management's assessment of internal controls over financial reporting, and the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, and issuing a report thereon.

In performing its duties, the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed our financial statements, management's assessment of internal controls over financial reporting, and the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting with management and our independent registered public accounting firm and, in issuing this report, has relied upon the responses and information provided to the Audit Committee by management and the independent registered public accounting firm.

Table of Contents

For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, the Audit Committee reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements for such fiscal year with management and BKD, our independent registered public accounting firm during such fiscal year. Specifically, the Audit Committee has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed by Item 2-07 of Regulation S-X (Communication with Audit Committees) of the SEC and Statement on Auditing Standards No. 16, (Communication with Audit Committees), as amended, (AICPA, Professional Standards, Vol. I, AU Section 380) and as adopted by the PCAOB in Rule 3200T, and as superseded by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 114 (The Auditor's Communication With Those Charged With Governance) adopted by the PCAOB, which include, among other things:

	·	methods used to account for significant unusual transactions;
	·	the effect of significant accounting policies in controversial or emerging areas for which there is a lack of authoritative guidance or consensus;
	·	the process used by management in formulating particularly sensitive accounting estimates and the basis for the accounting firm’s conclusions regarding the reasonableness of those estimates; and
	·	disagreements with management over the application of accounting principles, the basis for management’s accounting estimates, and the disclosures in the financial statements.

The Audit Committee has received the written disclosures from the independent registered public accounting firm required by PCAOB Ethics and Independence Rules 3526, “Communication with Audit Committees Concerning Independence” and discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm its independence within the meaning of the rules and standards of the PCAOB and the securities laws and regulations administered by the SEC.

The Audit Committee met with representatives of the independent registered public accounting firm without management present on four (4) occasions during fiscal 2014. Based on the foregoing reviews and meetings, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2014, for filing with the SEC.

Compensation Committee

Functions, Meetings, and Composition of the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee reviews all aspects of compensation of our executive officers, recommends director nominees for the selection by the Board of Directors, and makes recommendations on such matters to the full Board of Directors. The Compensation Committee met four (4) times during fiscal 2014. Mr. Heyworth, Ms. Langham, and Mr. Miller served on the Compensation Committee in fiscal 2014, with Mr. Miller serving as the chairperson.

Role of the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee was formed in September 1993. The Compensation Committee is responsible for determining the compensation program for our executive officers, including our CEO and President, our Chief Financial Officer, and our three other most highly compensated executive officers whose total compensation was $100,000 or more for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 (collectively, the "Named Executive Officers").

Table of Contents

The Compensation Committee is responsible for annually reviewing and approving annual base salary compensation for the Named Executive Officers. The Compensation Committee establishes and administers the bonus compensation program, which is re-evaluated each fiscal year, pursuant to which certain of our employees and executive officers may be eligible to receive bonuses. The Compensation Committee administers the Celadon Group, Inc. 2006 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended (the "Incentive Plan") and, subject to the provisions of the Incentive Plan, determines grants under the Incentive Plan for all employees, including the Named Executive Officers. The Compensation Committee also considers and if appropriate, recommends for selection, nominees for the Board of Directors. Subject to certain restrictions, when it deems appropriate, the Compensation Committee may form and delegate to subcommittees the authority to undertake any of the foregoing responsibilities.

Compensation Committee Member Independence. Each member of our Compensation Committee satisfies the independence and compensation committee membership criteria set forth in NYSE Rules 303A.02(a)(ii) and 303A.05. In determining the independence of our Compensation Committee members, the Board considered several relevant factors, including each director's source of compensation and affiliations. Specifically, each member of the Compensation Committee (i) is independent under NYSE Rule 303A.02, (ii) meets the independence criteria in Rule 10C-1(b)(1) of the Exchange Act, (iii) did not directly or indirectly accept any consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fee from the Company, (iv) is not affiliated with the Company, any Company subsidiary, or any affiliate of a Company subsidiary, and (v) does not have any other relationship with the Company that is material to the director's ability to be independent from management in connection with the duties of a Compensation Committee member.

Compensation Committee Charter. Our Compensation Committee operates pursuant to a written charter detailing its purpose, powers, and duties. A copy of the Compensation Committee's current charter is available on our website at http://www.celadontrucking.com.

Report of the Compensation Committee. In performing its duties, the Compensation Committee, as required by applicable rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC, issues a report recommending to the Board of Directors that our Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this Proxy Statement. The Report of the Compensation Committee follows.

The Report of the Compensation Committee shall not be deemed to be "soliciting material" or to otherwise be considered "filed" with the SEC, nor shall this report be subject to Regulation 14A or Regulation 14C (other than as indicated) or to the liabilities set forth in Section 18 of the Exchange Act. This Report of the Compensation Committee also shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any prior or subsequent filing with the SEC made by us under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, notwithstanding any general statement contained in any such filings incorporating this Proxy Statement by reference, except to the extent we incorporate such report by specific reference or treat it as soliciting material.

Table of Contents

There were no interlocking relationships between our directors and executive officers and the executive officers and directors of any other entity that might affect the compensation of our executive officers. For a description of other transactions between us and other directors and executive officers, see "Certain Relationships and Related Transactions" below.

Director Nomination Process. The Compensation Committee recommends director nominees for selection by the Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors has adopted a policy of re-nominating incumbent directors who continue to satisfy the criteria for Board of Directors membership, whom the Compensation Committee believes continue to make important contributions to the Board of Directors, and who consent to continue to serve on the Board of Directors. In choosing to nominate Robert Long to a position on the Board of Directors, the Compensation Committee carefully examined his credentials, qualifications, and his prospective ability to make a positive impact on the Board of Directors. The Compensation Committee will continue periodically evaluate potential candidates for the Board of Directors.

In filling vacancies on the Board of Directors, the Compensation Committee will solicit recommendations for nominees from persons that the Compensation Committee believes are likely to be familiar with (i) our needs and (ii) are qualified candidates. These persons may include members of the Board of Directors and management, advisors to us, or professional search firms.

Consideration of Director Candidates Recommended by Stockholders. The Compensation Committee also will consider proposed director nominees recommended by stockholders, provided that the following procedural requirements are satisfied. Director nominee recommendations should be mailed via certified mail, return receipt requested, and addressed to Director Nomination, Celadon Group, Inc., c/o Paul Will – President and CEO, 9503 East 33rd Street, One Celadon Drive, Indianapolis, Indiana, 46235. In order to be considered, a stockholder recommendation must: (i) be received at least 120 days prior to the anniversary of the mailing date of our proxy statement for the prior year's Annual Meeting of Stockholders (by June 30, 2015 for director candidates to be considered for nomination for election at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders following the end of fiscal year 2015), however, if the date of such Annual Meeting of Stockholders is more than thirty days before or after December 11, 2015, then the deadline for submitting any director candidates for nomination for election at such Annual Meeting of Stockholders will be a reasonable time before we begin to print or mail such proxy materials; (ii) contain sufficient background information, such as a resume and references, to enable our Compensation Committee to make a proper judgment regarding the proposed nominee's qualifications; (iii) be accompanied by a signed consent of the proposed nominee to serve as a director, if elected, and a representation that such proposed nominee qualifies as "independent" under NYSE Rule 303A.02 or, if the proposed nominee does not qualify, a description of the reason(s) he or she is not "independent"; (iv) state the name and address of the stockholder submitting the recommendation and the number of shares of our common stock owned of record or beneficially by such stockholder; and (v) if submitted by a beneficial stockholder, be accompanied by evidence (such as a recent brokerage statement) that the person making the recommendation beneficially owns shares of our common stock.

Criteria for Evaluating Director Nominees. In evaluating potential nominees, including potential nominees properly submitted by stockholders, our Compensation Committee will review the background and qualifications to determine the suitability of any potential nominee to serve on the Board of Directors. Specifically, the Compensation Committee will evaluate their skill, expertise, diversity, personal and professional integrity, character, business judgment, dedication, and time availability to serve on the Board of Directors. Other relevant factors are considered when the Compensation Committee considers such factors appropriate in the context of the needs of the Board of Directors and the Company.

With regard to specific qualities and skills, the Compensation Committee does not have any minimum qualifications that must be met to be considered. However, our Board of Directors believes it necessary that: (i) at least a majority of the members of the Board of Directors qualify as "independent" under NYSE 303A.02 and applicable SEC rules; (ii) at least three members of the Board of Directors satisfy the audit committee membership independence criteria specified in NYSE 303A.02; and (iii) at least one member of the Board of Directors, eligible to serve on the Audit Committee, have sufficient knowledge, experience, and training concerning accounting and financial matters so as to qualify as an "audit committee financial expert" within the meaning of Item 407(d) of Regulation S-K.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Under the securities laws of the United States, our directors and executive officers and any persons owning more than ten percent (10%) of our common stock are required to report their ownership of common stock and any changes in that ownership, on a timely basis, to the SEC. Officers, directors, and greater than 10% stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they filed. Based solely upon a review of the copies of such forms furnished to us, we believe that none of our officers, directors, and greater than 10% beneficial owners failed to file on a timely basis the reports required by Section 16(a). The exception was that Cathy Langham failed to timely file one transaction on a Form 4 which involved stock option exercises.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

This Proxy Statement discusses the executive compensation of our Named Executive Officers and explains to our stockholders how our executive compensation programs, policies, and decisions are made with respect to the compensation of our Named Executive Officers. In the Compensation Discussion and Analysis below, we also discuss and analyze our executive compensation program, including the various types of compensation awarded under the program, and the corresponding compensation amounts for each Named Executive Officer.

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis should be read in conjunction with the Summary Compensation Table (including the related tabular and narrative discussions) and the Committees of the Board of Directors – The Compensation Committee section contained in this Proxy Statement. As noted in that section, our Compensation Committee, which is comprised only of directors who satisfy applicable SEC and NYSE independence requirements, oversees and administers our executive compensation policies and practices.

Overview and Philosophy of Compensation

We believe the quality, skills, and dedication of our executive officers are critical factors affecting our long-term value and success. Our philosophy of executive compensation is to provide overall compensation levels that (i) attract and retain talented executives and motivate those executives to achieve superior results, (ii) foster employee commitment, (iii) align executives' interests with our corporate strategies, our business objectives, and the long-term interests of our stockholders, and (iv) enhance executives' incentives to increase our stock price and maximize stockholder value. In many instances, we build our compensation elements around long-term retention and development together with annual rewards. To this end, we have sought to provide competitive levels of compensation that integrate pay with our annual and long-term performance goals and reward performance.

The Compensation Committee oversees all of our executive officer compensation arrangements. The Compensation Committee has the specific responsibility to (i) review and approve corporate goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of our CEO, (ii) evaluate the performance of our CEO in light of those goals and objectives, (iii) consider factors related to our performance as a company, including accomplishment of our long-term business and financial goals, and (iv) determine and approve the compensation level of our CEO based upon such evaluation. The Compensation Committee also has the responsibility to review annually the compensation of our other executive officers and to determine whether such compensation is reasonable under existing facts and circumstances. In making such determinations, the Compensation Committee seeks to ensure that the compensation of our executive officers aligns the executives' interests with the interests of our stockholders. The Compensation Committee must also review and approve all forms of incentive compensation, including annual cash bonuses, stock option grants, restricted stock grants, and other forms of incentive compensation granted to our executive officers. The Compensation Committee takes into account the recommendations of our CEO in reviewing and approving the overall compensation of the other executive officers.

Role of Stockholder "Say-on-Pay"

At our 2013 Annual Meeting, we held an advisory vote on executive compensation, commonly known as "say-on-pay." While the vote is advisory and non-binding, the Compensation Committee reviewed, and will continue to consider, the voting results to determine the cause of any significant negative voting results. Approximately 97% of the votes cast (excluding abstentions and broker non-votes) at our 2013 Annual Meeting were in favor of the non-binding proposal on executive compensation, and the Compensation Committee considered this outcome to be an endorsement of our compensation policies and procedures and an indication of stockholder satisfaction with our compensation policies.

Elements of Compensation

Our compensation program for executive officers consists of two major elements, fixed and incentive compensation. The total compensation for executive officers consists of one or more of the following components: (i) base salary, (ii) incentive compensation, which may include a performance-based annual bonus and long-term equity incentive awards, which in recent years have been in the form of stock options and/or restricted stock grants, (iii) other compensation, including specified perquisites, and (iv) employee benefits, which are generally available to all of our employees.

Table of Contents

The Compensation Committee has the responsibility to make and approve changes in the total compensation of our executive officers, including the mix of compensation elements. In making decisions regarding an executive's total compensation, the Compensation Committee considers whether the total compensation is fair and reasonable, internally appropriate based upon our culture, goals, initiatives, and the compensation of our other employees, and within a reasonable range of the compensation afforded by other opportunities, overall economic conditions, and our recent historical performance. The Compensation Committee also bases its decisions regarding compensation upon its assessment of the executive's leadership, integrity, individual performance, prospect for future performance, years of experience, skill set, level of commitment and responsibility required in the position, contributions to our financial results, the creation of stockholder value, and current and past compensation. In determining the mix of compensation elements, the Compensation Committee considers the effect of each element in relation to total compensation. The Compensation Committee specifically considers whether each particular element provides an appropriate incentive and reward for performance that sustains and enhances long-term stockholder value. The Compensation Committee also takes into account the tax and accounting consequences associated with each element of compensation. In determining whether to increase or decrease an element of compensation, we rely upon the business experience of the members of the Compensation Committee, the Compensation Committee's general understanding of compensation levels of public companies, and the historical compensation levels of the executive officers.

We generally do not rely on rigid formulas, other than performance measures under our annual bonus program, or short-term changes in business performance when setting compensation. In addition, the Compensation Committee has the authority to engage various compensation advisors. The Compensation Committee does not currently engage in benchmarking when considering the structure of compensation for our employees.

Base Salary

We pay base salaries at levels that reward executive officers for ongoing performance and that enable us to attract and retain highly qualified executives, but not at a level that alone allows the executives to achieve the overall compensation they desire. Base pay is a critical element of our compensation program because it provides our executive officers with stability. Compensation stability allows our executives to focus their attention and efforts on our business objectives, which includes creating stockholder value. In determining base salaries, we consider the executive's current salary and the executive's qualifications and experience, including, but not limited to, the executive's length of service with us, the executive's industry knowledge, and the executive's leadership, integrity, scope of responsibilities, dedication to us and our stockholders, past performance, and future potential of providing value to our stockholders. We set our base salaries at a level that allows us to pay a portion of an executive officer's total compensation in the form of incentive compensation (including annual cash bonuses and long-term incentives) and perquisites. We believe this mix of compensation helps us incentivize our executives to maximize stockholder value in the long run. We consider adjustments to base salaries annually and as needed in respect of changes in responsibilities to reflect the foregoing factors but do not apply a specific weighting to such factors.

Incentive Compensation

Long-Term Incentives

Our Incentive Plan is a broad-based equity plan that we use to, among other things, (i) provide annual incentives to executive officers in a manner designed to reinforce our performance goals, (ii) attract, motivate, and retain qualified executive officers by providing them with long-term incentives, and (iii) align our executives' and stockholders' long-term interests by creating a strong, direct link between executive pay and stockholder return. The Incentive Plan allows the Compensation Committee to link compensation to performance over a period of time by using equity-based awards (which often value a company's long-term prospects). Over time, the Compensation Committee expects to grant equity primarily using restricted stock.

Table of Contents

Other aspects of the equity compensation portion of the program include the following:

·	a target run rate of equity grants equivalent to 1% to 2% of outstanding shares granted per year, with a fair value (considering stock options at their Black-Scholes value upon issuance and restricted stock at the closing stock price on the date of issuance) equal to approximately 1% of market capitalization annually;

·	a target grant date value equal to approximately 1.0 to 1.5 times base salary; and

·	time vesting of restricted stock awards over four or five years.

The Compensation Committee considered various alternatives for structuring incentive compensation, including the use of performance targets for restricted stock vesting. The Compensation Committee determined that the combination of time vesting restricted stock (which provides upside potential and downside exposure without the accounting complexity of performance vesting stock) and performance-based annual bonuses provided an appropriate balance of incentive-based and retention-based compensation.

Performance-Based Annual Bonuses

Consistent with our goal of improving stockholder value, the Compensation Committee primarily evaluates earnings per share for determining whether to grant performance-based bonuses and the amount of such bonuses, if any. In fiscal 2014, we adopted a bonus program that awarded annual cash bonuses based on the achievement of certain earnings per share thresholds and the discretion of the Compensation Committee. The total amount of each bonus under the bonus program was based on target bonus amounts as a percentage of the Named Executive Officer’s annual salary. When making determinations related to grants of performance-based bonuses, the Compensation Committee considers various factors, including Company performance, operating metrics, and individual performance and responsibilities. The annual bonuses granted for fiscal 2014 were granted on the basis of the Company's improved financial and operating results and the contribution of each of the grant recipients to such results. Specific criteria evaluated by the Compensation Committee in granting these awards are described in more detail below.

Other Compensation

We provide our Named Executive Officers with certain other benefits that we believe are reasonable, competitive, and consistent with our overall executive compensation program. We believe that these benefits generally allow our executives to work more efficiently in the execution of their duties. The costs of these benefits constitute only a small percentage of each executive's total compensation. In setting the amount of these benefits, the Compensation Committee considers each executive's position and scope of responsibilities and all other elements comprising the executive's compensation.

Employee Benefits

Our executive officers are eligible to participate in all of our employee benefit plans, such as our 401(k) Plan and medical, dental, and group life insurance plans, in each case on the same basis as our other employees.

Compensation Paid to Our Named Executive Officers

Compensation Paid to Our Chief Executive Officer

Mr. Paul Will has served our Company in many roles since joining us in 1993, including his role as President since November 2010. In December 2012, Mr. Will became our CEO. In January 2013, Mr. Will’s base salary was increased to $500,000 annually from $420,000 annually.

In July 2013, after reviewing the results of the Company during fiscal 2013, the Compensation Committee granted Mr. Will a discretionary performance bonus of $350,000. When granting this bonus, the Compensation Committee considered (i) the magnitude of Mr. Will's ability to impact corporate performance based on his responsibilities, including his assumption of increased responsibilities arising from his transition to the CEO position, (ii) the composition of Mr. Will's total compensation package, (iii) our long-term financial goals, and (iv) the improvement in the Company's financial results and Mr. Will's continued contributions to those results.

Table of Contents

In October 2013, the Compensation Committee approved a performance-based cash incentive plan for certain executive officers (the "2014 Bonus Program") under which Mr. Will was eligible to receive a target bonus of 65% of his base salary for 2014. The percentage of salary assigned to Mr. Will’s potential bonus was based on the Compensation Committee's evaluation of (i) the magnitude of Will’s ability to impact corporate performance based on his responsibilities, (ii) the composition of Will’s total compensation package, and (iii) our long-term financial goals. The Compensation Committee set performance targets for Mr. Will that were tied to the achievement by the Company of earnings per share targets. The performance targets for Mr. Will were the same performance targets for our Chief Financial Officer and our President of Asset Light Business Units, as discussed below. Because we achieved our consolidated performance target for 2014, the Compensation Committee awarded a performance bonus to Mr. Will for 2014 under the 2014 Bonus Program in the amount of $471,250, which included a discretionary amount of $43,875, after the Compensation Committee considered Mr. Will’s base salary, position, scope of responsibility, ability to affect our results, ability to create stockholder value, and the historic and recent performance of the Company.

In March 2014, after considering an increase to Mr. Will’s base salary and considering his position, scope of responsibility, ability to affect our results, ability to create stockholder value, and historic and recent performance, as partially described above, and as a retention incentive, the Compensation Committee granted Mr. Will 44,000 restricted shares. The March 2014 grant is time-based and will vest as follows: (i) 20% of the shares vest March 2015; (ii) 20% of the shares vest March 2016; (iii) 20% of the shares vest March 2017; (iv) 20% of the shares vest March 2018; and (v) 20% of the shares vest March 2019.

Compensation Paid to Our Other Named Executive Officers

For all Named Executive Officers other than our Chief Executive Officer, the form and amount of compensation awarded by the Compensation Committee was partially based on recommendations made by the Chief Executive Officer. As discussed above, the Compensation Committee relied on the business experience of its members, the historical compensation levels of the Named Executive Officers, and its general understanding of compensation levels at public companies to determine that the Chairman’s recommendations with respect to the compensation levels and forms were appropriate for 2014. For 2014, the form of compensation paid to our Named Executive Officers was generally consistent with past years, with compensation consisting primarily of base salary, performance-based cash bonuses pursuant to the 2014 Bonus Program (with the exception of Mr. Core and Mr. Gabbei), and equity compensation in the form of restricted stock grants. For each of the Named Executive Officers, the Compensation Committee considered, among other things, our financial and operating results for the periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2014, the duties and responsibilities of each Named Executive Officer, and the length of time each Named Executive Officer has been with us, as further described in each executive's biographical information found herein.

In July 2013, after reviewing the results of the Company for fiscal 2013 and the contributions made by each officer to those results, the Compensation Committee awarded discretionary performance bonuses in the following amounts: Mr. Jonathan Russell - $160,000, Mr. Core - $35,000, Mr. Gabbei - $35,000 and Mr. Meek -$160,000, each related to results achieved and the contribution by each recipient to those results for fiscal 2013. The annual bonus granted to Mr. Jonathan Russell was attributed to his increased responsibilities related to his transition during fiscal 2013 to the position of President of Asset Light Business Units, improved earnings for our asset light business units, and increased overall Company earnings, to which Mr. John Russell has contributed. Mr. Meek's bonus was awarded as a result of improved Company performance and Mr. Meek's increased responsibilities with regard to his transition during fiscal 2013 to the position of Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Core and Mr. Gabbei’s bonuses were awarded as a result of improved Company performance and in recognition of their continued service as Vice President and Secretary, and Chief Information Officer, respectively.

In March 2014, Mr. Meek’s salary was increased to $235,000 annually from $220,000 annually. In June 2014, Mr. Gabbei’s base salary was increased to $165,000 annually from $162,000 annually. These increases were granted by the Compensation Committee based on each executive’s scope of responsibilities and historical and recent performance of the Company and each executive. Mr. Jonathan Russell's salary and Mr. Core's salary remained at $335,000 and $150,000, respectively, for fiscal 2014.

The Compensation Committee also made grants of restricted shares to each of the other Named Executive Officers in March 2014. After considering previous restricted stock grants to each Named Executive Officer, other than the CEO, in prior years and each Named Executive Officer's base salary, position, scope of responsibility, ability to affect our results, ability to create stockholder value, and historic and recent performance, the Compensation Committee granted: (i) Mr. Jonathan Russell 18,000 restricted shares, (ii) Mr. Core 4,500 restricted shares, (iii) Mr. Meek 22,000 restricted shares, and (iv) Mr. Gabbei 3,500 restricted shares. All shares were granted in March 2014, except for Mr. Gabbei’s, which were granted in January 2014. All grants will vest ratably over five years. The Compensation Committee believes its 2014 restricted stock grants provide an appropriate mix of long-term incentive based compensation to our Named Executive Officers, while encouraging each Named Executive Officer to work toward achieving the Company's goal of continued financial improvement.

Pursuant to the 2014 Bonus Program adopted in October 2013, the Compensation Committee approved annual cash bonus opportunities for fiscal 2014 under which Mr. Will, Mr. Meek and Mr. Jonathan Russell were eligible to receive a cash bonus award. Under the 2014 Bonus Program, the above listed officers were eligible to receive bonuses based on a percentage of their base salary. These bonuses involved both the achievement of the earnings per share goals and a discretionary component. The percentage of salary assigned to each of the above listed Officers was adjusted for any salary changes during the year and was based on the Compensation Committee's evaluation of: (i) the magnitude of each officer's ability to impact corporate performance based on the executive's responsibilities at the time the targets were set, (ii) the composition of each officer's total compensation package, and (iii) our long-term financial goals.

Under the 2014 Bonus Program, the Compensation Committee adopted the following target bonus amounts for each of the officers listed below:

Name and Position	Target Bonus as a Percentage of Salary	Target Bonus in Dollars on Grant Date
Paul Will, CEO and President	65%	$325,000

William E. Meek, Executive Vice President and COO (former Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer)	50%	$110,000

Jonathan Russell, President of Asset Light Business Units	50%	$167,500

The Compensation Committee established the following criteria for attainment of the 2014 cash bonus:

Bonus Criteria	Percentage of Bonus
Earnings Per Share Target	70%

Discretionary Amount	30%

For the earnings per share criterion, the recipients were eligible to earn between 0% and 200% of the portion of the target bonus amount attributable to that criterion, depending on the level of performance achieved.

Earnings per share is equal to diluted earnings per share as reflected in the audited financial statements, excluding any gain or loss attributable to extraordinary non-cash items. The bonus amounts under the 2014 Bonus Program were linear in between the identified earnings per share targets and adjusted for the pro forma impact of any acquisitions/dispositions.

Diluted EPS Calculation
Fiscal 2014 EPS	Percentage of Target Bonus
<$1.10	0%
$1.10	50%
$1.20	100%
$1.30	150%
$1.40	200%

The Compensation Committee viewed the 2014 performance targets as reflecting a range of performance that is achievable but uncertain, with the upper end of the range reflecting a significant accomplishment.

The Compensation Committee met in August 2014 to discuss and review the 2014 bonus awards for the Named Executive Officers. The Compensation Committee reviewed the 2014 Bonus Program and our earnings per share. After determining that we achieved the earnings per share target at the 145% level, the Compensation Committee awarded performance bonuses under the 2014 Bonus Program in the amounts consistent with the criteria set forth above, based on each executive officer's salary as of the award date. In recognition of the Company's financial and operating results and the contribution of certain executive officers to such results, the Compensation Committee awarded Mr. Jonathan Russell and Mr. Meek discretionary bonuses of $22,613 and $15,863, respectively. Additionally, Mr. Core was awarded a discretionary bonus of $35,000, and Mr. Gabbei was awarded a discretionary bonus of $35,000, each related to results achieved and contribution to those results for fiscal 2014.

We also provided Mr. Jonathan Russell with a company vehicle and each Named Executive Officer with 401(k), medical, dental, and group life insurance. Each perquisite is designed to help the officer more effectively carry out their responsibilities for us.

Compensation Decisions with Respect to 2015

The Compensation Committee annually reviews and considers increases in the base salaries of our Named Executive Officers, as well as proposals to grant equity awards to each Named Executive Officer based on the number of restricted shares granted to each Named Executive Officer in prior years and each Named Executive Officer's base salary, position, scope of responsibility, ability to affect our results, ability to create stockholder value, and historic and recent performance, as described above. In connection with his appointment to the position of Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer in October 2014, Mr. Meek's base salary was increased to $285,000 annually. Management had not proposed and the Compensation Committee had not yet considered any further changes to the salaries of our Named Executive Officers. Nevertheless, the Compensation Committee may consider changes to the Named Executive Officers' base salaries and grants of equity awards to the Named Executive Officers in future meetings.

In September 2014, the Compensation Committee approved a cash bonus program for fiscal 2015 (the "2015 Bonus Program") for certain Named Executive Officers. Under the 2015 Bonus Program, the Compensation Committee adopted the following target bonus amounts for each of the officers listed below:

Name and Position	Target Bonus as a Percentage of Salary	Target Bonus in Dollars on Grant Date
Paul Will, CEO and President	65%	$325,000

William E. Meek, Executive Vice President and COO (former Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer)	50%	$117,500

Jonathan Russell, President of Asset Light Business Units	35%	$117,250

Under the 2015 Bonus Program, the entire potential bonus for each Named Executive Officer is based on an earnings per share target, unlike our previous cash bonus programs, which have included a discretionary component.

The recipients may earn between 0% and 200% of the target, depending on the level of performance. If the performance target is met, the bonus is calculated based upon the award date salary. Earnings per share is equal to diluted earnings per share as reflected in our audited financial statements, excluding any gain or loss attributable to extraordinary non-cash items. The bonus amounts are linear in between the identified earnings per share targets and adjusted for the pro forma impact of any acquisitions or dispositions.

Diluted EPS Calculation
Fiscal 2015 EPS	Percentage of Target Bonus
<$1.10	0%
$1.10	50%

The Compensation Committee viewed the 2015 performance target as reflecting a range of performance that is achievable but uncertain, with the upper end of the range reflecting a significant accomplishment. The 2015 performance targets do not reflect any view of management or the Compensation Committee concerning earnings expectations for the year.

Employment Agreements

We have a separation agreement with Mr. Will, our President and CEO. The agreement with Mr. Will reflects the fact that a significant portion of his total compensation may, at any point in time, consist of unvested stock options or restricted stock holdings and that some measure of protection against a possible, but unpredictable, action of successor corporations is desirable for both Mr. Will and the Company. This agreement also reduces the risk that alignment between the interests of Mr. Will will be decoupled from our stockholders' interests by a change-in-control event. The payout provisions under this agreement were established based on prevailing market practice.

In October 2013, we entered into a service agreement with Mr. Stephen Russell which superseded the Company's employment agreement with Mr. Stephen Russell. Under the service agreement, Mr. Stephen Russell continues in his position as Chairman of the Board in a non-employee role. Mr. Stephen Russell's compensation under the service agreement is $300,000 per year. The term of the service agreement is through December 2015, with a one-year renewal option upon mutual agreement of us and Mr. Stephen Russell. Mr. Stephen Russell is prevented under the service agreement from competing with us for two years following termination of the agreement or his resignation. If the service agreement is terminated by us or by Mr. Stephen Russell for any reason other than for cause or by the death of Mr. Stephen Russell, we will pay Mr. Stephen Russell the balance owed under the service agreement as of the date of termination. The service agreement also allows Mr. Stephen Russell to retain any previously granted stock options that have vested and provides that he may exercise those options at any time until ninety days after his resignation or termination.

Under Mr. Will's separation agreement with us, we have the right at any time, with or without prior written notice, to terminate his employment or obtain his resignation. The agreement provides that in the event of termination of employment, Mr. Will will be entitled to receive from us: (i) a lump-sum payment in an amount equal to one year's salary less normal withholding; (ii) a pro-rata bonus payment equal to the then current bonus formula for the time employed in the then current fiscal year up to the date of termination in that fiscal year less normal withholdings; (iii) a lump sum payment equal to twelve months of COBRA premiums for the group medical and dental plans; and (iv) a lump sum payment in an amount equal to twelve months of his car allowance. In addition, in such event, Mr. Will will be entitled to exercise any vested or unvested stock options he then has in accordance with the terms of the Incentive Plan, for a period of one year from the termination of his employment.

Currently, we do not have any other employment contracts, severance agreements, change in control agreements, non-competition agreements, separation agreements, or other arrangements with any of our other Named Executive Officers that would provide for payment or benefit to a Named Executive Officer at, following, or in connection with a change in control, a change in a Named Executive Officer's responsibilities, or a Named Executive Officer's termination of employment, including registration, severance, retirement, or constructive termination. The Compensation Committee will continue to evaluate the Company’s needs on this issue from time-to-time.

Other Policies and Considerations

Risk Considerations Regarding Compensation

We believe our compensation policies and practices for executive and non-executive employees create appropriate and meaningful incentives for our employees and encourage the avoidance of excessive or inappropriate risks. Our Compensation Committee assesses the risks that could arise from such policies and practices by regularly reviewing the various elements and aspects of our compensation, including base salaries, incentive compensation (which includes long-term equity awards and performance-based annual bonuses), perquisites, employee benefits, and other compensation. Upon concluding such assessment, the Compensation Committee determined that our compensation policies and practices do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have a materially adverse impact on the Company. In making this determination, our Compensation Committee primarily considered the following factors:

Table of Contents

·	Our general compensation structure utilizes a combination of short-term (such as base salary and performance-based annual bonuses) and long-term (equity awards) elements. This balanced mix aligns our compensation with the achievement of short- and long-term Company goals, promotes short- and long-term executive decision-making, and does not encourage or incentivize excessive or unreasonable risk-taking by employees in pursuit of short-term benefits.
·	Variable compensation elements are based on financial results, including earnings per share, our long-term financial goals, the composition of each Named Executive Officer's total compensation, and the ability of each Named Executive Officer to impact our performance and contribute to improved financial results.
·	The Compensation Committee is comprised of only independent directors who review and make compensation decisions based on objective measurements and payment methodologies.
·	Base salaries for our employees are competitive and generally consistent with salaries paid for comparable positions in our industry.
·	Our internal controls over financial reporting, audit practices and corporate codes of ethics and business conduct were implemented to reinforce the balanced compensation objectives established by our Compensation Committee.

Director Compensation

The following table sets forth information concerning the compensation of our non-employee directors for fiscal 2014.

Name	Fees Earned or Paid in Cash(1) ($)	Stock Awards(2) ($)	Total ($)
Anthony Heyworth	57,500	70,999(3)	128,499
Catherine Langham	55,000	70,999(3)	125,999
Michael Miller	72,500	70,999(3)	143,499

(1)	This column represents the amount of cash compensation earned in fiscal 2014 by non-employee directors for service on the Board of Directors and on the Audit Committee and Compensation Committee.
(2)	This column represents the dollar amount recognized for financial statement reporting purposes with respect to fiscal 2014 for the fair value of stock awards granted to each non-employee director in fiscal 2014 in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. Pursuant to SEC rules, the amounts shown exclude the impact of estimated forfeitures related to service-based vesting conditions. Fair value is calculated using the closing price of our stock on the date of grant. For additional information on the valuation assumptions, refer to Note 1, Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Note 5, Stock Plans, of our consolidated financial statements in the Form 10-K for the year-ended June 30, 2014, as filed with the SEC on September 15, 2014. These amounts reflect our accounting expense related to the awards and do not correspond to the actual value that will be recognized by the directors.
(3)	In December 2013 each non-employee director received 3,688 of our common stock, determined by dividing the current year's director compensation subject to payment in common stock, by the closing market price of our common stock on the date of grant, or $19.25 per share. These shares are subject to certain holding and other restrictions.

Narrative to Director Compensation

For fiscal 2014, directors who are not our employees received annual compensation consisting of cash compensation of $50,000, plus an additional $2,500 for serving on a committee, $2,500 for serving as a committee chair, and, for Mr. Miller, $15,000 for serving as lead director. There were no fees paid for meeting attendance. In addition, we established equity compensation for our non-employee directors of approximately $71,000, consisting of a number of shares of restricted stock equal to $71,000 divided by the closing stock price on the date of the grant (rounded to the nearest share). Accordingly, at the 2014 Annual Meeting, each of our non-employee directors received equity compensation of approximately $71,000, consisting of a number of shares of restricted stock equal to $71,000 divided by the closing stock price on the date of the grant (rounded to the nearest share), which resulted in each of our non-employee directors receiving restricted stock awards in the amount of 3,688 shares. The restricted stock awards will vest entirely on the date of the 2015 Annual Meeting. The shares must be held for a minimum of two years following the vesting date so long as the recipient remains a director.

For fiscal 2015, the annual compensation program for directors will remain the same as in fiscal 2014.

(2)	Beneficial ownership is calculated in accordance with the rules of the SEC. A person is deemed to have "beneficial ownership" of any security that he or she has a right to acquire within sixty days following October 13, 2014. Shares of common stock underlying stock options that are currently exercisable or will be exercisable within sixty days following October 13, 2014 are deemed to be outstanding for purposes of computing the percentage ownership of the person holding such options and the percentage ownership of all executive officers and directors as a group, but are not deemed outstanding for purposes of computing the percentage ownership of any other person or entity. As a result, the denominator used in calculating beneficial ownership percentages among our stockholders and management may differ. As of October 14, 2014, our executive officers and directors held shares of common stock underlying stock options currently exercisable or that will become exercisable within sixty days following October 14, 2014 in the following amounts: Mr. Stephen Russell – 405,784; Mr. Will – 303,256; Mr. Jonathan Russell – 0 shares; Mr. Core – 26,950; Mr. Meek – 0; Mr. Gabbei – 21,950; Ms. Tarble – 3,750; Mr. Peavler – 1,250; Mr. Miller – 7,875; Mr. Heyworth – 16,875; and Ms. Langham – 0.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Our Audit Committee has established procedures relating to the review, approval, or ratification of any transaction, or any proposed transaction, in which we were or are to be a participant and the amount involved exceeds $120,000, and in which any "related person" (as that term is defined in Instruction 1 to Item 402(a) of Regulation S-K) had or will have a direct or indirect material interest ("Interested Transactions"). Upon review of the material facts of all Interested Transactions, the Audit Committee will either approve or disapprove the Interested Transactions, subject to certain exceptions, by taking into account, among other factors it deems appropriate, whether the terms are arms'-length and the extent of the related person's interest in the transaction. No director may participate in any discussion or approval of an Interested Transaction for which he is a related party. If an Interested Transaction will be ongoing, the Audit Committee may establish guidelines for our management to follow in its ongoing dealings with the related party and then at least annually must review and assess ongoing relationships with the related party. Although not evidenced in writing, we feel these policies and procedures best serve the Company and therefore we follow them closely. Each year our directors and officers are asked to disclose any Interested Transaction and are reminded that Interested Transactions should be brought to the Audit Committee's attention prior to consummation so any such transactions or relationships may be reviewed.

Mr. Stephen Russell is the father of Mr. Jonathan Russell, and all arrangements between the Company and Mr. Jonathan Russell are described elsewhere in this proxy statement.

See "Corporate Governance – The Board of Directors – Committees of the Board of Directors – Compensation Committee – Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation" for a description of transactions between us and members of our Compensation Committee or their affiliates.

PROPOSAL NO. 2 – ADVISORY, NON-BINDING VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

In accordance with the requirements of Section 14A of the Exchange Act (which was added by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the related rules of the SEC), we are including in this Proxy Statement a separate resolution, subject to stockholder vote, to approve, in a non-binding vote, the compensation of our Named Executive Officers as disclosed on pages 13 to 26.

As described in more detail in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section of this Proxy Statement, the Compensation Committee has structured our executive compensation program to achieve the following key objectives:

Objective		How Our Executive Compensation Program Achieves This Objective

Attract and retain talented executives and motivate those executives to achieve superior results.		We link compensation to achievement of goals and continued employment with the Company. Our base salaries are set to provide stability for our executives while encouraging improved performance. We also utilize multi-year vesting requirements for equity-based compensation to promote long-term ownership.

Align executives' interests with our corporate strategies, our business objectives, and the long-term interests of our stockholders.		Annual cash bonuses for each of our Named Executive Officers are based on criteria that are important to our success. In fiscal 2014, the Compensation Committee adopted a bonus plan that includes a specific diluted EPS target and a discretionary component of 30%, and is based upon a target bonus as a percentage of the salary of each Named Executive Officer. The fiscal 2015 bonus plan is similarly based on a target bonus as a percentage of the salary of each Named Executive Officer, with only a diluted EPS target and no discretionary component.

Enhance executives' incentives to increase our stock price and maximize stockholder value.		Annual cash incentives based on our financial performance keep management focused on near-term results.
		The equity compensation component, which includes awards such as stock options and restricted stock grants, provides balance to our other elements of our compensation program and creates incentive for executives to increase stockholder value over an extended period of time.

		We attempt to keep base salaries relatively low and weight overall compensation toward incentive and equity-based compensation.

Approximately 97% of the votes cast (excluding abstentions and broker non-votes) at our 2013 Annual Meeting were in favor of the non-binding proposal on executive compensation, and the Compensation Committee considered this outcome to be an endorsement of our compensation policies and procedures. We urge stockholders to read the Compensation Discussion and Analysis beginning on page 13 of this Proxy Statement for more information on our executive compensation policies and procedures. The Compensation Committee and the Board believe that the policies and procedures articulated in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis are effective in achieving our goals.

Accordingly, we are asking our stockholders to approve, in a non-binding vote, the following resolution in respect of this Proposal No. 2:

"RESOLVED, that the stockholders approve, in an advisory, non-binding vote, the compensation of the Company's Named Executive Officers, as disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K in this Proxy Statement, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables, and narrative discussion."

This advisory resolution, commonly referred to as a "say-on-pay" resolution, is non-binding on the Board of Directors. Although non-binding, the Board and the Compensation Committee will review and consider the voting results when making future decisions regarding our executive compensation program.

INTEREST OF CERTAIN PERSONS IN MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON

Other than as set forth herein, we are not aware of any substantial interest, direct or indirect, by way of beneficial ownership of securities or otherwise, of any person who has been our director or executive officer at any time since the beginning of the Company's last fiscal year or any proposed nominee for election as a director, or any associate of any of the foregoing, in any matter to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting, other than the election of directors and the impact on such persons as Participants in the Incentive Plan, which is proposed to be amended.

RELATIONSHIP WITH INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Our current independent registered public accounting firm is BKD, LLP ("BKD"). We dismissed KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) in October 2013, with such dismissal being approved by the Audit Committee. We then engaged BKD in October 2013, and we expect to continue to engage BKD for fiscal 2015. A representative from BKD is expected to be present at the Annual Meeting and to be available to respond to appropriate questions, and such representative will have an opportunity to make a statement at the Annual Meeting if he or she desires to do so.

The audit report of KPMG on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2013 and the audit report of BKD on the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2014 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. The audit report of KPMG on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2013 and the audit report of BKD on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2014 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 and the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, there were no disagreements between the Company and KPMG or BKD on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope and procedures that, if not resolved to the satisfaction of KPMG or BKD, would have caused KPMG or BKD to make reference to the matter in its audit reports.

We have provided KPMG with a copy of the foregoing statements. A copy of KPMG’s letter to the SEC, dated October 8, 2013, regarding its agreement with the foregoing statements was filed as Exhibit 16.1 to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on October 8, 2013.

Principal Accounting Fees and Services

BKD and KPMG billed us the following amounts for services provided in the following categories during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013:

	Fiscal 2014	Fiscal 2013
Audit Fees(1)	$233,448	$266,775
Audit-Related Fees(2)	0	0
Tax Fees(3)	0	0
All Other Fees(4)	14,624	0
Total	$248,072	$266,775

(1)	"Audit Fees" represents the aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered by BKD and KPMG for the audit of our annual financial statements and audit of internal controls and review of financial statements included in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and annual report on Form 10-K, and services that are normally provided by an independent registered public accounting firm in connection with statutory or regulatory filings or engagements for that fiscal year.
(2)	"Audit-Related Fees" represents aggregate fees billed, other than Audit Fees, for assurance and related services by the principal independent registered public accounting firm that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of our financial statements and internal control over financial reporting. We were not billed any Audit-Related Fees in fiscal 2014 or fiscal 2013.
(3)	"Tax Fees" represents the aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered by BKD for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning. We were not billed any Tax Fees in fiscal 2014 or fiscal 2013.
(4)	All Other Fees represent the aggregate fees billed for products and services provided by BKD, other than Audit Fees, Audit-Related Fees, and Tax Fees.

Table of Contents

The Audit Committee maintains a policy pursuant to which it pre-approves all audit services and permitted non-audit services to be performed by the independent registered public accounting firm in order to assure that the provision of such services is compatible with maintaining the firm's independence. Under this policy, the Audit Committee pre-approves specific types of categories of engagements constituting audit, audit-related, tax, or other permissible non-audit services to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm. Pre-approval of an engagement for a specific type or category of services generally is provided for up to one year and typically is subject to a budget comprised of a range of anticipated fee amounts for the engagement. Management and the independent registered public accounting firm are required to periodically report to the Audit Committee regarding the extent of services provided by the firm in accordance with the annual pre-approval, and the fees for the services performed to date. If management believes that a new service, or the expansion of a current service, provided by the independent registered public accounting firm is necessary or desirable then such new or expanded services are presented to the Audit Committee for its review and approval prior to the engagement of the independent registered public accounting firm to render such services. No audit-related, tax, or other non-audit services were approved by our Audit Committee pursuant to the de minimus exception to the pre-approval requirement under Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) of Regulation S-X during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014.

Any such proposal received after September 13, 2015 is untimely. However, if the date of such Annual Meeting of Stockholders is more than thirty days before or after December 11, 2015, then the deadline for submitting any such Stockholder proposal will be a reasonable time before we mail the proxy materials relating to such meeting. Pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 14a-4(c)(1), the proxy holders designated by an executed proxy in the form accompanying our 2015 Proxy Statement will have discretionary authority to vote on any stockholder proposal that is not received on or prior to the deadline described above.
