Description Of Business

Description of Business

YRC Worldwide Inc. (also referred to as “YRC Worldwide”, the "Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”), one of the largest transportation service providers in the world, is a holding company that through wholly owned operating subsidiaries and its interests in certain joint ventures offers its customers a wide range of transportation services. YRC Worldwide has one of the largest, most comprehensive less-than-truckload ("LTL") networks in North America with local, regional, national and international capabilities. Through its team of experienced service professionals, YRC Worldwide offers industry-leading expertise in heavyweight shipments and flexible supply chain solutions, ensuring customers can ship industrial, commercial and retail goods with confidence. Our reporting segments include the following:

•

YRC Freight is the reporting segment for our transportation service providers focused on business opportunities in national, regional and international services. YRC Freight provides for the movement of industrial, commercial and retail goods, primarily through centralized management and customer facing organizations. This unit includes our LTL subsidiary YRC Inc. (“YRC Freight”) and Reimer Express (“YRC Reimer”), a subsidiary located in Canada that specializes in shipments into, across and out of Canada. In addition to the United States and Canada, YRC Freight also serves parts of Mexico, Puerto Rico and Guam.

•

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

In 2010 and 2011, we reported a Truckload reporting segment, which consisted of Glen Moore, a former domestic truckload carrier. On December 15, 2011, we sold the majority of Glen Moore's assets to a third party and concluded its operations.

In 2010, we sold the majority of YRC Logistics and ceased operations of the residual unsold business. As a result, this segment is classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

Principles Of Consolidation

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of YRC Worldwide and its majority owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. We report on a calendar year basis. The quarters of the Regional Transportation companies (with the exception of New Penn) consist of thirteen weeks that end on a Saturday either before or after the end of March, June and September, whereas all other operating segment quarters end on the natural calendar quarter end. Our investment in the non-majority owned affiliate in which we do not have control where the entity is either not a variable interest entity or YRC Worldwide is not the primary beneficiary is accounted for on the equity method. Other comprehensive loss attributable to our non-controlling interest was not significant for any period presented. Management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Accounting policies refer to specific accounting principles and the methods of applying those principles to fairly present our financial position and results of operations in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The policies discussed below include those that management has determined to be the most appropriate in preparing our financial statements.

Reverse Stock Splits

The board of directors approved a reverse stock split effective December 1, 2011 at a ratio of 1:300. This reverse stock split was effective on NASDAQ on December 2, 2011. The board of directors also approved a reverse stock split effective September 30, 2010 at a ratio of 1:25. This reverse stock split was effective on NASDAQ on October 1, 2010. Fractional shares were not issued in connection with the reverse stock splits, but were collected and pooled by our transfer agent and sold in the open market and the proceeds were allocated to the stockholders' respective accounts pro rata in exchange for their fractional shares. Shareholders' Equity (Deficit) has been retroactively adjusted to give effect to the reverse stock splits for all periods presented by reclassifying from Common stock to Capital surplus, the par value of the share reduction in connection with the reverse splits. All share numbers and per share amounts in the consolidated financial statements and notes to the consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to give effect to the reverse stock splits.

Each of the reverse stock splits reduced the number of shares of our common stock available for issuance under our employee and director equity plans in proportion to the reverse stock split ratio. Under the terms of our outstanding equity awards, the reverse stock split reduced the number of shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise or vesting of such awards in proportion to the reverse stock split ratio and caused a proportionate increase in the exercise price of such awards to the extent they were stock options. The number of shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise or vesting of outstanding equity awards was rounded to the nearest whole share and no cash payment was made in respect of such rounding.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include demand deposits and highly liquid investments purchased with maturities of three months or less. Under the Company's cash management system, checks issued but not presented to banks frequently result in book overdraft balances for accounting purposes which are classified within accounts payable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The change in book overdrafts are reported as a component of operating cash flows for accounts payable as they do not represent bank overdrafts.

Concentration of Credit Risks and Other

We sell services and extend credit based on an evaluation of the customer's financial condition, without requiring collateral. Exposure to losses on receivables is principally dependent on each customer's financial condition. We monitor our exposure for credit losses and maintain allowances for anticipated losses.

At December 31, 2012, approximately 76% of our labor force is subject to collective bargaining agreements, which predominantly expire in March 2015. In January 2009, the primary labor agreement was modified to reflect a 10% reduction in all wages, inclusive of scheduled increases, through the remaining life of the agreement. The modification also suspended any cost of living increases. In July 2009, the primary labor agreement was again modified to reflect an additional 5% reduction in all wages through the remaining life of the agreement. In September 2010, we modified the primary labor agreement to extend the expiration date from March 31, 2013 to March 31, 2015. The modification also extended the temporary cessation of multi-employer pension plan contributions to June 1, 2011 at which time we began contributing at the rate of 25% of the contribution rate as of July 1, 2009. Additionally the modification extended the 15% wage reductions but provided for wage increases in 2013 and 2014 and provided for significant changes in work rules.

Revenue Recognition

For shipments in transit, we record revenue based on the percentage of service completed as of the period end and accrue delivery costs as incurred. The percentage of service completed for each shipment is based on how far along in the shipment cycle each shipment is in relation to standard transit days. Standard transit days are defined as our published service days between origin zip code and destination zip code. Based on historical cost and engineering studies, certain percentages of revenue are determined to be earned during each stage of the shipment cycle, such as initial pick up, long distance transportation, intermediate transfer and customer delivery. Using standard transit times, we analyze each shipment in transit at a particular period end to determine what stage the shipment is in. We apply that stage's percentage of revenue earned factor to the rated revenue for that shipment to determine the revenue dollars earned by that shipment in the current period. The total revenue earned is accumulated for all shipments in transit at a particular period end and recorded as operating revenue.

In addition, we recognize revenue on a gross basis because we are the primary obligors even when we use other transportation service providers who act on our behalf. We remain responsible to our customers for complete and proper shipment, including the risk of physical loss or damage of the goods and cargo claims issues. We assign pricing to bills of lading at the time of shipment based primarily on the weight, general classification of the product, the shipping destination and individual customer discounts. This process is referred to as rating. At various points throughout our process, incorrect ratings could be identified based on many factors, including weight verifications or updated customer discounts. Although the majority of rerating occurs in the same month as the original rating, a portion occurs during the following periods. We accrue a reserve for rerating based on historical trends. At December 31, 2012 and 2011, our financial statements included a rerate reserve as a reduction to “Accounts Receivable” of $11.9 million and $16.4 million, respectively.

Uncollectible Accounts

We record an allowance for doubtful accounts primarily based on historical uncollectible amounts. We also take into account known factors surrounding specific customers and overall collection trends. Our process involves performing ongoing credit evaluations of customers, including the market in which they operate and the overall economic conditions. We continually review historical trends and make adjustments to the allowance for doubtful accounts as appropriate. Our allowance for doubtful accounts totaled $9.8 million and $12.0 million as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Discontinued Operations

In June 2010, we entered into an Equity Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with CEG Holdings, Inc. (now known as MIQ Holdings, Inc.) (“CEG”), a subsidiary of Austin Ventures, to sell the majority of YRC Logistics. In addition, certain other operations included in the YRC Logistics segment ceased during the quarter ended June 30, 2010. Accordingly, the results of operations of our YRC Logistics segment are separately presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented. The financial results included in discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2010 are as follows:



(in millions)
Revenue	$	194.2
Operating loss	(14.0		)
Loss from operations before income tax provision	(18.3		)
Income tax provision	4.8
Net loss from discontinued operations	$	(23.1	)

Foreign Currency

Our functional currency is the U.S. dollar, whereas, our foreign operations utilize the local currency as their functional currency. Accordingly, for purposes of translating foreign subsidiary financial statements to the U.S. dollar reporting currency, assets and liabilities of our foreign operations are translated at the fiscal year end exchange rates and income and expenses are translated monthly at the average exchange rates for each respective month. Foreign currency gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions resulted in a $2.0 million net gain, $5.2 million net gain and a $8.4 million net gain during 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and are included in “Other nonoperating (income) expense” and “Net income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax” in the accompanying statements of consolidated operations. Approximately $5.5 million of the 2010 gain relates to the recognition of foreign currency translation adjustment from the dissolution of a certain wholly owned subsidiary.

Claims and Insurance Accruals

Claims and insurance accruals, both current and long-term, reflect the estimated settlement cost of claims for workers' compensation, cargo loss and damage, and property damage and liability that insurance does not cover. We establish and modify reserve estimates for workers' compensation and property damage and liability claims primarily upon actuarial analyses prepared by independent actuaries. These reserves are discounted to present value using a risk-free rate based on the year of occurrence. The risk-free rate is the U.S. Treasury rate for maturities that match the expected payout of such claims and was 0.4%, 0.8% and 1.1% for workers' compensation claims incurred for the years ended and as of December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The rate was 0.3%, 0.5% and 0.7% for property damage and liability claims incurred for the years ended and as of December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The process of determining reserve requirements utilizes historical trends and involves an evaluation of accident frequency and severity, claims management, changes in health care costs and certain future administrative costs. The effect of future inflation for costs is considered in the actuarial analysis. Adjustments to previously established reserves are included in operating results in the year of adjustment. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, we had $437.3 million and $500.7 million, respectively, accrued for claims and insurance. The claims and insurance liabilities for YRC Logistics, which is included in our discontinued operations, were not assumed by CEG and therefore are still included in our outstanding liabilities.

Expected aggregate undiscounted amounts and material changes to these amounts as of December 31 are presented below:



(in millions)	Workers' Compensation			Property Damage and Liability Claims			Total
Undiscounted amount at December 31, 2010	$	446.6		$	102.1		$	548.7
Estimated settlement cost for 2011 claims	106.9			32.4			139.3
Claim payments, net of recoveries	(124.5		)	(66.5		)	(191.0		)
Change in estimated settlement cost for older claim years	20.6			11.9			32.5
Undiscounted amount at December 31, 2011	$	449.6		$	79.9		$	529.5
Estimated settlement cost for 2012 claims	100.4			27.4			127.8
Claim payments, net of recoveries	(140.9		)	(43.7		)	(184.6		)

Undiscounted settlement cost estimate at December 31, 2012	$	390.1		$	65.1		$	455.2
Discounted settlement cost estimate at December 31, 2012	$	351.2		$	65.1		$	416.3

In addition to the amounts above, settlement cost amounts for cargo claims and other insurance related amounts, none of which are discounted, totaled $21.0 million and $20.4 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Estimated cash payments to settle claims which were incurred on or before December 31, 2012, for the next five years and thereafter are as follows:



(in millions)	Workers' Compensation		Property Damage and Liability Claims		Total
2013	$	84.1	$	22.4	$	106.5
2014	58.5		17.3		75.8
2015	42.5		12.4		54.9
2016	33.0		6.8		39.8
2017	25.7		3.4		29.1
Thereafter	146.3		2.8		149.1
Total	$	390.1	$	65.1	$	455.2

Stock Compensation Plans

We have various stock-based employee compensation plans, which are described more fully in the "Stock Compensation Plans" footnote to our consolidated financial statements. We recognize compensation costs for non-vested shares and compensation cost for all share-based payments (i.e., options) based on the grant date fair value. Additionally, we recognize compensation cost for all share-based payments granted on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period (generally three to four years) based on the grant-date fair value.

Property and Equipment

The following is a summary of the components of our property and equipment at cost as of December 31:



(in millions)	2012		2011
Land	$	269.6	$	276.4
Structures	825.8		895.5
Revenue equipment	1,442.8		1,426.5
Technology equipment and software	127.0		267.3
Other	203.8		209.2
Total cost	$	2,869.0	$	3,074.9

We carry property and equipment at cost less accumulated depreciation. We compute depreciation using the straight-line method based on the following service lives:



	Years
Structures	10 - 30
Revenue equipment	10 - 20
Technology equipment and software	3 - 7
Other	3 - 10

We charge maintenance and repairs to expense as incurred, and capitalize replacements and improvements when these costs extend the useful life of the asset. We utilize certain terminals and equipment under operating leases. Leasehold improvements are capitalized and amortized over the remaining lease term.

Our investment in technology equipment and software consists primarily of customer service and freight management equipment and related software. We have capitalized certain costs associated with developing or obtaining internal-use software for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, which were not significant.

For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, depreciation expense was $165.2 million, $173.8 million, and $181.1 million, respectively.

The cost of replacement tires are expensed at the time those tires are placed into service, as is the case with other repair and maintenance costs. The cost of tires on newly acquired revenue equipment is capitalized and depreciated over the estimated useful life of the related equipment.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

If facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of held-and-used identifiable amortizable intangibles and property, plant and equipment may be impaired, we perform an evaluation of recoverability in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 360. Our evaluation compares the estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset or asset group to its carrying amount to determine if a reduction to the carrying amount is required. The carrying amount of an impaired asset would be reduced to fair value if the estimated undiscounted cash flows are insufficient to recover the carrying value of the asset group. We performed impairment reviews for held-and-used long-lived assets during the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 in connection with an update of our internal business forecasts that considered current economic conditions and results of operations.

Impairment of Equity Method Investments

During the year ended December 31, 2012, we determined that the estimated fair value of JHJ International Transportation Company, Ltd ("JHJ"), a 50% owned equity investment, did not exceed its carrying amount and resulted in an impairment charge of $30.8 million. This determination was based upon market information we obtained in the fourth quarter of 2012 (a Level 3 fair value measurement). This impairment charge was recorded in equity investment impairment in the "Corporate and Other" segment in the accompanying statements of consolidated operations.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, we determined the estimated fair value of Jiayu, a 65% owned equity investment at the time, did not exceed its carrying amount and resulted in an impairment charge of $1.3 million on the property, plant and equipment, primarily based on the used revenue equipment market in China (a Level 3 fair value measurement), and $2.7 million on the intangibles. These impairment charges were recorded in depreciation and amortization in the "Corporate and Other" segment in the accompanying statements of consolidated operations for the year ended December 31, 2011.

Asset Retirement Obligations

We record estimated liabilities for the cost to return leased property to its original condition at the end of a lease term. Revisions to these liabilities for such costs may occur due to changes in the estimates for real property lease restoration costs, or changes in regulations or agreements affecting these obligations. These obligations could also include removal of underground storage tanks at leased or owned properties. Our accrual also includes amounts for restoration of U.S. federal “Superfund” sites. When we have been identified as a potentially responsible party in a Superfund site, we accrue our share of the estimated remediation costs of the site based on the ratio of the estimated volume of waste contributed to the site by us to the total volume of waste at the site. At December 31, 2012 and 2011, our accrued asset retirement obligations totaled $5.7 million and $6.7 million, respectively. These amounts are included in “Other current and accrued liabilities” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Assets Held for Sale

When we plan to dispose of property or equipment by sale, the asset is carried in the financial statements at the lower of the carrying amount or estimated fair value, less cost to sell, and is reclassified to assets held for sale. Additionally, after such reclassification, there is no further depreciation taken on the asset. For an asset to be classified as held for sale, management must approve and commit to a formal plan, the sale should be anticipated during the ensuing year and the asset must be actively marketed, be available for immediate sale, and meet certain other specified criteria. We use level 2 and level 3 inputs to determine the fair value of each property that is considered as held for sale.

At December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the net book value of assets held for sale was approximately $7.3 million and $39.1 million, respectively. This amount is included in “Property and Equipment” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. We recorded charges of $13.2 million, $17.9 million and $31.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, to reduce properties held for sale to estimated fair value, less cost to sell. These charges are included in “(Gains) losses on property disposals, net” in the accompanying statements of consolidated operations.

Earnings from Equity Method Investments

We account for the ownership of our joint venture under the equity method and accordingly, recognize our share of the respective joint ventures earnings in “Other nonoperating (income) expense” in the accompanying statements of operations.

The following reflects the components of these results for the years ended December 31:



(in millions)	2012			2011			2010
Our share of joint venture earnings	$	(1.9	)	$	(2.7	)	$	(0.8	)
Additional depreciation and amortization as required by purchase accounting	—			—			1.1
Impairment charge	30.8			—			12.3
Net equity method (earnings) losses	$	28.9		$	(2.7	)	$	12.6

The presentation above only includes Jiayu earnings through March 31, 2010, as this entity's financial information was consolidated as of April 1, 2010 through the first quarter of 2012. See the "Investment" footnote to our consolidated financial statements below for additional details.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

We determined fair value measurements used in our consolidated financial statements based upon the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity's own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:


•	Level 1: Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access.


•	Level 2: Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.


•	Level 3: Valuations based on inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The asset's or liability's fair value measurement level with the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

The valuation methodologies described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. We believe that our valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants. The use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial statements could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date. There have been no changes in the methodologies used at December 31, 2012 and 2011.

The following tables summarize the fair value hierarchy of our financial assets held at fair value on a recurring basis, which consists of our restricted cash held in escrow:



			Fair Value Measurement at December 31, 2012
(in millions)	Total Carrying Value		Quoted prices in active market (Level 1)		Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)		Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3)
Restricted amounts held in escrow-current	$	20.0	$	20.0	$	—	$	—
Restricted amounts held in escrow-long term	102.5		102.5		—		—
Total assets at fair value	$	122.5	$	122.5	$	—	$	—



			Fair Value Measurement at December 31, 2011
(in millions)	Total Carrying Value		Quoted prices in active market (Level 1)		Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)		Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3)
Restricted amounts held in escrow-current	$	59.7	$	59.7	$	—	$	—
Restricted amounts held in escrow-long term	96.3		96.3		—		—
Total assets at fair value	$	156.0	$	156.0	$	—	$	—

Restricted amounts held in escrow are invested in money market accounts and are recorded at fair value on quoted market prices. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates their fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Business Combinations [Abstract]
Investment	Investment Shanghai Jiayu Logistics Co., Ltd. On August 19, 2008, we completed the purchase of a 65% equity interest in Shanghai Jiayu Logistics Co., Ltd. (“Jiayu”), a Shanghai, China ground transportation company with a purchase price of $59.4 million. Through March 31, 2010, we accounted for our 65% ownership interest in Jiayu as an equity method investment as the rights of the minority shareholder were considered extensive and allowed for his ability to veto many business decisions. These rights were primarily provided as a part of the General Manager role held by the minority shareholder. Effective April, 1, 2010, the minority shareholder no longer had a role in managing the operations of the business which changed the conclusions from an accounting perspective regarding the relationship of this joint venture and required that we consolidate Jiayu in our financial statements effective April 1, 2010. The results of operations for Jiayu were included in our ‘Corporate and other’ reporting segment from April 1, 2010 to February 29, 2012. In an effort to focus on our core operations, we entered into an agreement in March 2012 to sell our 65% equity interest in Jiayu to the minority shareholder. The transaction closed during the fourth quarter of 2012. At the time the agreement was entered into, management control was passed to the minority shareholder and, as a result, we deconsolidated our interest in Jiayu during March 2012 and returned to accounting for our ownership interest as an equity method investment. Based on the March 2012 agreement, we recorded our equity method investment at its estimated fair value of $0 and wrote off a $12.0 million note receivable from Jiayu. After consideration of the non-controlling interest and other factors, we recognized a loss of $4.2 million upon the deconsolidation of our investment during 2012. Additionally, the noncontrolling interest was allocated a $4.2 million gain on this transaction.

Total marketing related intangible assets with indefinite lives, primarily tradenames, are not subject to amortization, but are subjected to an impairment test at least annually and as triggering events may occur. The impairment test for tradenames consists of a comparison of the fair value of the intangible asset with its carrying amount. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the asset. In making this assessment, we utilized the relief from royalty method, an income approach (a level 3 fair value measurement), which includes assumptions as to future revenue, applicable royalty rate and cost of capital, among others.

In 2010, we determined indicators of impairment were present, primarily due to reduced actual and forecasted revenue, as it relates to our tradenames. Accordingly we performed an impairment test that consisted of a comparison of the fair value of the intangible asset with its carrying amount. We recognized an impairment loss in the amount by which the carrying amount exceeded the fair value of the asset. In making this assessment, we utilized the relief from royalty method, an income approach (level three measurement as defined in FASB ASC Topic 820 that includes assumptions as to future revenue, applicable market-based royalty rate and cost of capital, among others). These impairment charges were $3.3 million and $2.0 million for YRC Freight (the Reimer tradename) and Regional Transportation (the New Penn tradename), respectively.

Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]

Restructuring

During 2010, we incurred restructuring charges of $10.3 million that consisted of additional severance costs of $8.9 million, including $3.0 million in the YRC Freight segment and $5.1 million at the Corporate and other segment as we reduced headcount in response to lower volumes. We also incurred $9.3 million of contract terminations related to lease cancellations related to certain discontinued operations to our consolidated financial statements. This is offset by $7.9 million in our YRC Freight segment where we were able to use or sublease locations in excess of our previously recorded estimate.

We reassess the accrual requirements under the above restructuring efforts at the end of each reporting period. Restructuring charges are included in “Salaries, wages and employees' benefits” as it relates to employee separation costs and “Operating expenses and supplies” as it relates to contract terminations and other costs in the accompanying statements of operations. Amounts related to our YRC Logistics segment are included in “Net income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax” in the accompanying statements of operations.

During the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, we received dividends in the amount of $2.4 million and $2.3 million, respectively, from our China joint venture, JHJ International Transportation Co., Ltd. (“JHJ”). During the year ended December 31, 2012 , we determined that the estimated fair value of JHJ, a 50% owned equity investment did not exceed its carrying amount and resulted in an impairment charge of $30.8 million on our JHJ equity investment. We determined fair value by discounting JHJ's forecasted future cash flows, an income approach (a level 3 fair value measurement). Our determination to evaluate impairment was based upon market information we obtained in the fourth quarter of 2012. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the excess of our investment over our interest in JHJ's equity is $4.6 million and $35.2 million, respectively.

Employee Benefits

Qualified and Nonqualified Defined Benefit Pension Plans

With the exception of Regional Transportation, YRC Reimer and certain of our other foreign subsidiaries, YRC Worldwide and its operating subsidiaries sponsor qualified and nonqualified defined benefit pension plans for certain employees not covered by collective bargaining agreements (approximately 14,000 current, former and retired employees). Qualified and nonqualified pension benefits are based on years of service and the employees' covered earnings. Employees covered by collective bargaining agreements participate in various multi-employer pension plans to which YRC Worldwide contributes, as discussed below. Regional Transportation does not offer a defined benefit pension plan and instead offers retirement benefits through either contributory 401(k) savings plans or profit sharing plans, as discussed below. The existing YRC Worldwide defined benefit pension plans closed to new participants effective January 1, 2004 and the benefit accrual for active employees was frozen effective July 1, 2008, except with respects to subsequent service related to early retirement benefits, as discussed below. Our actuarial valuation measurement date for our pension plans is December 31.

No plan assets are expected to be returned to the Company during the year ended December 31, 2013.

Benefit Plan Obligations

Amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets for pension benefits at December 31 are as follows:



(in millions)	2012		2011
Noncurrent assets	$	—	$	1.4
Current liabilities	0.6		3.0
Noncurrent liabilities	545.7		436.9

Amounts recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss at December 31 consist of:



(in millions)	2012		2011
Net actuarial loss	$	511.8	$	350.3
Prior service cost	—		—
Total	$	511.8	$	350.3

As shown above, included in accumulated other comprehensive loss at December 31, 2012, are unrecognized actuarial losses of $511.8 million ($418.4 million, net of tax). The actuarial loss included in accumulated other comprehensive income and expected to be recognized in net periodic cost during the year ended December 31, 2013, is $14.9 million.

The total accumulated benefit obligation for all plans was $1,345.7 million and $1,165.3 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

As of December 31, 2012, all of our pension plans accumulated benefit obligation (“ABO”) equal projected benefit obligation and exceed their plan assets. Information for pension plans with an ABO in excess of plan assets at December 31, 2011 is as follows:



(in millions)	ABO Exceeds Assets		Assets Exceed ABO		Total
Projected benefit obligation	$	1,160.8	$	5.4	$	1,166.2
Accumulated benefit obligation	1,160.8		4.5		1,165.3
Fair value of plan assets	720.9		6.8		727.7

Assumptions

Weighted average actuarial assumptions used to determine benefit obligations at December 31:



	2012		2011
Discount rate	4.28	%	5.23	%

Weighted average assumptions used to determine net periodic benefit cost for the years ended December 31:



	2012		2011		2010
Discount rate	5.23	%	5.79	%	6.15	%
Expected rate of return on assets	7.0	%	7.0	%	8.25	%
Mortality table	RP-2000 Projected to 2012		RP-2000 Projected to 2011		RP-2000

The discount rate refers to the interest rate used to discount the estimated future benefit payments to their present value, also referred to as the benefit obligation. The discount rate allows us to estimate what it would cost to settle the pension obligations as of the measurement date, December 31, and is used as the interest rate factor in the following year's pension cost. We determine the discount rate by selecting a portfolio of high quality noncallable bonds such that the coupons and maturities exceed our expected benefit payments.

In determining the expected rate of return on assets, we consider our historical experience in the plans' investment portfolio, historical market data and long-term historical relationships as well as a review of other objective indices including current market factors such as inflation and interest rates. Although plan investments are subject to short-term market volatility, we believe they are well diversified and closely managed. Our asset allocation as of December 31, 2012, consisted of 27% equities, 50% in debt securities and 23% in absolute return investments and as of December 31, 2011 consisted of 25% equities, 50% in debt securities, 22% in absolute return investments, and 3% in interest bearing accounts. The 2012 allocations are consistent with the targeted long-term asset allocation for the plans which is 25% equities, 48% debt securities and 27% absolute return investments. Based on various market factors, we selected an expected rate of return on assets of 7.0% effective for the 2012 valuation. We will continue to review our expected long-term rate of return on an annual basis and revise appropriately. The pension trust holds no YRC Worldwide securities.

Future Contributions and Benefit Payments

We expect to contribute approximately $62.6 million to our single employer pension plans in 2013.

Expected benefit payments from our qualified and non-qualified defined benefit pension plans for each of the next five years and the total payments for the following five years ended December 31 are as follows:



(in millions)	2013		2014		2015		2016		2017		2018-2022
Expected benefit payments	$	69.4	$	69.0	$	70.5	$	70.5	$	71.3	$	378.0

Pension and Other Post-retirement Costs

The components of our net periodic pension cost, other post-retirement costs and other amounts recognized in other comprehensive loss for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 were as follows:



(in millions)	2012			2011			2010
Net periodic benefit cost:
Service cost	$	3.9		$	3.6		$	3.6
Interest cost	59.3			61.2			60.1
Expected return on plan assets	(51.1		)	(43.0		)	(52.4		)

Total recognized in other comprehensive loss (income)	161.4			(6.0		)	99.1
Total recognized in net periodic benefit cost and other comprehensive loss	$	182.5		$	25.4		$	117.9

During the year ended December 31, 2012 and 2010, the income tax provision (benefit) related to amounts in other comprehensive income was $(1.3) million and $2.5 million. There was no corresponding amount in 2011.

Fair Value Measurement

Our pension assets are stated at fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The majority of our assets are invested in Level 2 assets of fixed income funds and absolute return investments. These funds are valued at quoted redemption values that represent the net asset values of units held at year-end which we have determined approximates fair value. This process of using the net asset value (NAV) to approximate fair value is permitted under ASU 2009-12, “Investments in Certain Entities that Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or its Equivalent)” which we adopted as of December 31, 2009.

Investments in private equities and absolute return funds do not have readily available market values. These estimated fair values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for these investments existed, and such differences could be material. Investments in hedge funds that do not have an established market are valued at net asset values as determined by the investment managers, which we have determined approximates fair value.

The table below details by level, within the fair value hierarchy, the pension assets at fair value as of December 31, 2012:

(a)	The private equities consist of four private equity funds investing in renewable solar energy, acquisition of pharmaceutical company interest and Chinese technology and healthcare companies.


(b)	Consists of three fixed income funds, two of which invest in debt securities secured by royalty payments from top-tier marketers of pharmaceutical products, and one which invests in Indian mezzanine debt.


(c)	Redemptions are not permitted for two of the Level 3 fixed income funds. The third fund has redemption terms of quarterly after the second anniversary and a 90 day redemption notice period.

The following table sets forth a summary of the Level 3 assets for which the fair value is not readily determinable but a reported NAV is used to estimate the fair value as of December 31, 2011:



	Fair value estimated using Net Asset Value per Share
(in millions)	Fair Value		Unfunded Commitments		Redemption Frequency	Redemption Notice Period
Private equities ^(a)	$	29.0	$	18.3	Redemptions not permitted
Fixed income ^(b)	14.6		18.6		Redemptions not permitted
Total	$	43.6


(a)	The private equities consist of four private equity funds investing in renewable solar energy, acquisition of pharmaceutical company interest and Chinese technology and healthcare companies.


(b)	The fixed income funds consist of funds which invest in debt securities by royalty payments from top-tier marketers of pharmaceutical products.

The assets presented above in the December 31, 2012 and 2011 fair value hierarchy tables classified as Level 1 and Level 2, which fair value is estimated using NAV per share, have redemption frequencies ranging from daily to annually, have redemption notice periods from approximately 1 day to 90 days and have no unfunded commitments. These assets consist of equity, fixed income, and absolute return funds. Generally, the investment strategies of the fixed income and equity funds is based on fundamental and quantitative analysis and consists of long and hedged strategies. The general strategy of the absolute return funds consists of alternative investment techniques, including derivative instruments and other unconventional assets, to achieve a stated return rate.

Multi-Employer Pension Plans

YRC Freight, New Penn, Holland and Reddaway contribute to various separate multi-employer health, welfare and pension plans for employees that are covered by our collective bargaining agreements (approximately 76% of total YRC Worldwide employees). The collective bargaining agreements determine the amounts of these contributions. The 65 health and welfare plans provide medical related benefits to active employees and retirees. The 37 pension plans provide defined benefits to retired participants. We recognize as net pension cost within 'salaries, wages and employee benefits' the contractually required contributions for the period and recognize as a liability any contributions due and unpaid at period end. We do not directly manage multi-employer plans. The trusts covering these plans are generally managed by trustees, half of whom the unions appoint and half of whom various contributing employers appoint.

We expensed the following amounts related to these plans for the years ended December 31:



(in millions)	2012		2011		2010
Health and welfare	$	387.5	$	378.2	$	345.9
Pension	85.6		48.7		3.3
Total	$	473.1	$	426.9	$	349.2

Pension

Through the third quarter of 2009, we deferred payment of certain of our contributions to multi-employer pension funds. These deferred payments have been recognized as an operating expense and the liability was recorded as deferred contribution obligations. Beginning in the third quarter of 2009 through May 2011, most of our collective bargaining agreements provided for a temporary cessation of pension contributions so no expense or liability was required to be recognized for that period. In accordance with modifications to our collective bargaining agreements, we agreed to resume making pension contributions effective June 1, 2011 at 25.0% of the contribution rate in effect as of July 1, 2009.

The following table provides additional information related to our participation in individually significant multi-employer pension plans for the year ended December 31, 2012:



		Pension Protection Zone Status ^(b)		Funding Improvement or Rehabilitation Plan	Employer Surcharge Imposed	Expiration Date of Collective-Bargaining Agreement
Pension Fund ^(a)	EIN Number	2012	2011	Funding Improvement or Rehabilitation Plan	Employer Surcharge Imposed	Expiration Date of Collective-Bargaining Agreement
Central States, Southwest and Southwest Areas Pension Fund	36-6044243	Red	Red	Yes	No	3/31/2015
Teamsters National 401K Savings Plan ^(c)	52-1967784	N/A	N/A	N/A	No	3/31/2015
I.B. of T. Union Local No 710 Pension Fund	36-2377656	Green	Yellow	No	No	3/31/2015

Road Carriers Local 707 Pension Fund	51-6106510	Red	Red	Yes	No	3/31/2015

^(a)The determination of individually significant multi-employer plans is based on the relative contributions to the plans over the periods presented as well as other factors.

^(b)The Pension Protection Zone Status is based on information that the Company obtained from the plans' Forms 5500. Unless otherwise noted, the most recent Pension Protection Act (PPA) zone status available for 2012 and 2011 is for the plan's year-end during calendar years 2011 and 2010, respectively. Among other factors, plans in the red zone are generally less than 65 percent funded, plans in the yellow zone are less than 80 percent funded, and plans in the green zone are at least 80 percent funded.

^(c)The policies of the Western Conference of Teamsters Pension Trust precluded the Company from reentering the plan on June 1, 2011. The failure to reenter did not constitute a withdrawal subject to certain conditions. Contributions related to the employees previously covered by this plan are now being made to the Teamsters National 401(k) Plan.

YRC Worldwide was listed in the Road Carriers Local 707 Pension Fund's Forms 5500 as providing more than 5 percent of the total contributions for 2011 and 2010.

We contributed a total of $84.9 million, $45.6 million and $3.3 million to the multi-employer pension funds for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010. The following table provides the pension amounts contributed by fund for those funds that are considered to be individually significant:



(in millions)	2012		2011		2010
Central States, Southeast and Southwest Areas Pension Plan	$	51.9	$	27.6	$	—
Teamsters National 401K Savings Plan	11.0		5.8		—
I.B. of T. Union Local No 710 Pension Fund	4.1		2.2		—
Central Pennsylvania Teamsters Defined Benefit Plan	4.5		2.3		—
Road Carriers Local 707 Pension Fund	2.5		1.2		—

The comparability of annual contributions for 2010 through 2012 is impacted by the temporary cessation of contributions for the period from the third quarter of 2009 through May 2011 and the reduction in the Company's workforce.

In 2006, the Pension Protection Act became law and modified both the Internal Revenue Code (as amended, the “Code”) as it applies to multi-employer pension plans and the Employment Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (as amended, “ERISA”). The Code and ERISA (in each case, as so modified) and related regulations establish minimum funding requirements for multi-employer pension plans.

If any of our multi-employer pension plans fails to meet minimum funding requirements, meet a required funding improvement or rehabilitation plan that the Pension Protection Act may require for certain of our underfunded plans, obtain from the IRS certain changes to or a waiver of the requirements in how the applicable plan calculates its funding levels, or reduce pension benefits to a level where the requirements are met then we could be required to make additional contributions to the pension plan. If any of our multi-employer pension plans enters critical status and our contributions are not sufficient to satisfy any rehabilitation plan schedule, the Pension Protection Act could require us to make additional surcharge contributions to the multi-employer pension plan in the amount of five to ten percent of the existing contributions required by our labor agreement for the remaining term of the labor agreement.

If we fail to make our required contributions to a multi-employer plan under a funding improvement or rehabilitation plan or if the benchmarks that an applicable funding improvement plan provides are not met by the end of a prescribed period, the IRS could impose an excise tax on us with respect to the plan. Such an excise tax would then be assessed to the plan's contributing employers, including the Company. These excise taxes are not contributed to the deficient funds, but rather are deposited in the United States general treasury funds. The Company does not believe that the temporary cessation of certain of its contributions to applicable multi-employer pension funds beginning in the third quarter of 2009 and continuing through May 2011 will give rise to these excise taxes as the underlying employer contributions were not required for that period.

A requirement to materially increase contributions beyond our contractually agreed rate or the imposition of an excise tax on us could have a material adverse impact on the financial results and liquidity of YRC Worldwide.

Executive Supplemental Retirement Benefits

We maintain individual benefit arrangements for a limited number of former senior executives that are accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 710. The unfunded obligation is actuarially determined using a discount rate of 8.25%, a lump sum rate based on the Moody's bond rate and the RP-2000 mortality table projected to 2012. At December 31, 2012 and 2011, we have accrued $2.6 million and $13.2 million, respectively, for these benefits. The balance at December 31, 2012 is classified in “Pension and postretirement liabilities” in the accompanying balance sheets. The related expense for these arrangements was $0.2 million, $0.2 million and $2.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

401(k) Savings Plans

We sponsor the YRC Worldwide Inc. 401(k) Plan, which is a defined contribution plan primarily for employees that our collective bargaining agreements do not cover. The plan permits participants to make contributions to the plan and permits the employer of participants to make contributions on behalf of the participants. There were no employer contributions in 2012, 2011 or 2010. Our employees covered under collective bargaining agreements may also participate in union-sponsored 401(k) plans.

Performance Incentive Awards

YRC Worldwide and its operating subsidiaries each provide annual performance incentive awards and more frequent sales incentive awards to certain non-union employees, which are based primarily on actual operating results achieved compared to targeted operating results or sales targets and are paid in cash. Operating (loss) income in 2012, 2011, and 2010 included performance and sales incentive expense for non-union employees of $12.3 million, $13.9 million, and $14.6 million, respectively. We generally pay annual performance incentive awards in the first quarter of the following year and sales performance incentive awards on a monthly basis.

Other

We provide a performance based incentive plan to key management personnel that provides the opportunity annually to earn cash and equity awards to further compensate certain levels of management and our Board of Directors. The equity awards are more fully described in the "Stock Compensation Plans" footnote to our consolidated financial statements. During the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, compensation expense related to these awards was $3.8 million, $0.6 million and $6.0 million, respectively.

For a description of our outstanding debt, please refer the "Debt and Financing" footnote to our consolidated financial statements.

Credit Facility Covenants

On April 27, 2012, we entered into an amendment to our amended and restated credit agreement, which reset the minimum Consolidated EBITDA, maximum Total Leverage Ratio and minimum Interest Coverage Ratio covenants (as defined in the amended and restated credit agreement).

The covenants for each of the remaining test periods are as follows:



Four Consecutive Fiscal Quarters Ending	Minimum Consolidated EBITDA	Maximum Total Leverage Ratio	Minimum Interest Coverage Ratio

Minimum Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in our credit facilities, is a measure that reflects our earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization expense, and is further adjusted for letter of credit fees, equity-based compensation expense, net gains or losses on property disposals and certain other items, including restructuring professional fees and the results of permitted dispositions and discontinued operations.

We are also required to maintain a minimum cash balance (as defined in our credit facilities) of at least $50.0 million. Starting in August of 2013, this requirement increases to $119.4 million by November of 2013. This increase is required to ensure we have sufficient liquidity to pay the outstanding balance of our 6% convertible senior notes, which mature in February of 2014.

We were in compliance with all of our credit facility covenants for the year ended and as of December 31, 2012. We believe that our cash and cash equivalents, results of operations and availability under our credit facilities will be sufficient to allow us to continue to comply with the covenants in our credit facilities, fund our operations, increase working capital as necessary to support our planned revenue growth and fund capital expenditures for the foreseeable future, including the next twelve months.

Our most recent financial forecast indicates that our minimum cash balance covenant represents our highest risk of default. In the event our future operating results indicate that we will not meet our minimum cash balance covenant, we will take actions to improve our liquidity, including (without limitation):


•	repatriating cash from foreign sources;


•	deferring the timing of our capital expenditures; and


•	deferring the timing of our workers compensation settlement payments;

These actions, if deemed necessary, will allow us to meet any shortfall in our minimum cash balance.

In the event that we fail to meet this or any other financial covenant, we would be considered in default under our credit facilities, which would enable lenders thereunder to accelerate the repayment of amounts outstanding and exercise remedies with respect to collateral and we would need to seek an amendment or waiver from our lenders. In the event that our lenders under our credit facilities demand payment, we will not have sufficient cash to repay such indebtedness. In addition, a default under our credit facilities or the lenders exercising their remedies thereunder would trigger cross-default provisions in our other indebtedness and certain other operating agreements. Our ability to amend our credit facilities or otherwise obtain waivers from our lenders depends on matters that are outside of our control and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in that regard.

Risk and Uncertainties Regarding Future Liquidity

Our principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents and available borrowings under our $400 million ABL facility as well as any prospective net operating cash flows resulting from improvements in operations. As of December 31, 2012, we had cash and cash equivalents and availability under the ABL facility of $251.3 million and the borrowing base under our ABL facility was $369.8 million.

Our principal uses of cash are to fund our operations, including making contributions to our single-employer pension plans and our multi-employer pension funds, and to meet our other cash obligations, including but not limited to paying cash interest and principal on our funded debt, letter of credit fees under our credit facilities and funding capital expenditures and lease payments for operating equipment. For the year ended December 31, 2012, our cash flow from operating activities used net cash of $25.9 million.

We continue to have a considerable amount of indebtedness, a substantial portion of which will mature in late 2014 and early 2015, and considerable future funding obligations for our single-employer pension plans and the multi-employer pension funds. As of December 31, 2012, we had $1,375.4 million in aggregate principal amount of outstanding indebtedness, which amount will increase over time as we continue to accrue paid-in-kind interest on a portion of such indebtedness. We intend to refinance or restructure the portions of our debt which will mature in late 2014 and early 2015. The refinancing or restructuring of these debt obligations is outside of our control and there can be no assurance that such transaction will occur, or if it does occur, on what terms. We expect our funding obligations for 2013 for our single-employer pension plans and multi-employer pension funds will be $62.6 million and $84.9 million, respectively. In addition, we also have, and will continue to have, substantial operating lease obligations. As of December 31, 2012, our operating lease obligations for 2013 are $52.1 million.

Our capital expenditures for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 were $66.4 million and $71.6 million, respectively. These amounts were principally used to fund replacement engines and trailer refurbishments for our revenue fleet, capitalized costs for our network facilities and technology infrastructure. Additionally, for the year ended December 31, 2012, we entered into new operating lease commitments for revenue equipment totaling $67.1 million, with such payments to be made over the average lease term of 3 years. In light of our operating results over the past few years and our liquidity needs, we have deferred certain capital expenditures and expect to continue to do so for the foreseeable future. As a result, the average age of our fleet has increased and we will need to update our fleet periodically.

We believe that our results of operations and available funds pursuant to our ABL Facility will provide sufficient liquidity to fund our operations and meet the aforementioned covenants for the foreseeable future, including the next twelve months.

Our ability to satisfy our liquidity needs beyond 2013 is dependent on a number of factors, some of which are outside of our control. These factors include:


•	we must continue to achieve improvements in our operating results which rely upon pricing and shipping volumes;


•	we must continue to comply with covenants and other terms of our credit facilities so as to have access to the borrowings available to us under such credit facilities;


•	we must secure suitable lease financing arrangements for deferred replacement of revenue equipment;


•	we must continue to implement and realize cost saving measures to match our costs with business levels and in a manner that does not harm operations and our productivity and efficiency initiatives must be successful;

•

we must be able to generate operating cash flows that are sufficient to meet the minimum cash balance requirement under our credit facilities, cash requirements for pension contributions to our single and multi employer pension funds, cash interest and principal payments on our funded debt, payments on our equipment leases, letter of credit fees under our credit facilities and for capital expenditures or additional lease payments for new revenue equipment; and


•	we must restructure, or refinance our debt obligations prior to scheduled maturities in 2014 and 2015.

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]

Debt and Financing

We currently have two primary credit facilities that we utilize to support our liquidity needs: the amended and restated credit agreement and an asset-backed lending facility (the "ABL Facility," collectively referred to as our “credit facilities”). We are also currently party to a number of other financing arrangements, most of which we entered into in connection with the July 2011 financial restructuring (refer to the "Financial Restructuring" footnote for more details). We have set forth a brief description of our two primary credit facilities and our other financing arrangements below.

Amended and Restated Credit Agreement

- Overview: Our amended and restated credit agreement provides for a term loan in an aggregate principal amount of $307.4 million ("Restructured Term Loan") and a letter of credit facility of up to $437.0 million. No amounts under the Restructured Term Loan, once repaid, may be reborrowed. As of December 31, 2012, we have repaid $8.7 million in aggregate principal on the Restructured Term Loan. New letters of credit may be issued in substitution or replacement of the rollover letters of credit for the same or a substantially similar purpose substantially concurrently with (and in any event within twenty days of) such substitution or replacement. Certain material provisions of the amended and restated credit agreement are summarized below:

- Maturity and Amortization: The Restructured Term Loan and, subject to the ability to replace or substitute letters of credit, the letters of credit, will mature on March 31, 2015. The term loan will not amortize.

- Interest and Fees: The Restructured Term Loan, at our option, bears interest at either (x) 5.50% in excess of the alternate base rate (i.e., the greater of the prime rate and the federal funds effective rate in effect on such day plus 1/2 of 1%) in effect from time to time, or (y) 6.50% in excess of the London interbank offer rate (adjusted for maximum reserves). The London interbank offer rate will be subject to a floor of 3.50% and the alternate base rate will subject to a floor of the then-applicable London interbank offer rate plus 1.0%. The stated interest rate floor of 10.0% has been in effect since issuance.

Issued but undrawn letters of credit are subject to a participation fee equal to 7.50% of the average daily amount of letter of credit exposure. Any commitment available to be used to issue letters of credit will be subject to a commitment fee of 7.50% of the average daily unused commitment. Letters of credit will be subject to a 1% fronting fee or as mutually agreed between the Company and the applicable issuing bank.

- Guarantors: All our obligations under the credit agreement are unconditionally guaranteed by our U.S. subsidiaries (other than the ABL Borrower, as defined below).

- Collateral: The collateral securing the obligations under the credit agreement and guarantees entered into pursuant thereto includes, subject to certain customary exceptions, all shares of capital stock of (or other ownership equity interests in) and intercompany debt owned by the Company and each present and future Guarantor and substantially all present and future property and assets of the Company or each Guarantor, except to the extent a security interest would result in a breach, termination or default by the terms of the collateral being granted.

Pursuant to the terms under the credit agreement, we are required to deposit an amount into escrow accounts to secure our obligations under the credit agreement. This amount totaled $12.4 million as of December 31, 2012 and is included in "Restricted amounts held in escrow", a non-current asset on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The liens on the collateral securing the obligations under the credit agreement and guarantees entered into pursuant thereto are junior to the liens securing the obligations under the Contribution Deferral Agreement solely with respect to certain parcels of owned real property on which the pension funds have a senior lien and certain other customary permitted liens.

- Mandatory Prepayments: The credit agreement includes the following mandatory prepayments (none of which shall be subject to a reinvestment right except as set forth below):


•	75% of the net cash proceeds from certain asset sales (but, in any event, excluding casualty and condemnation events and certain other customary exceptions), except that no prepayment is required with respect to up to $10 million of net cash proceeds from non-real estate asset sales in any fiscal year to the extent reinvested in assets useful to the business;


•	50% of Excess Cash Flow, as defined in the credit agreement, swept on an annual basis;


•	50% of net cash proceeds from equity issuances (subject to certain exceptions, including equity issuances to finance capital expenditures); and


•	100% of cash proceeds from debt issuances that are not permitted by the credit agreement.

- Covenants: On April 27, 2012, we entered into an amendment to our amended and restated credit agreement, which reset the minimum Consolidated EBITDA, maximum Total Leverage Ratio and minimum Interest Coverage Ratio covenants (as defined in the amended and restated credit agreement). Among other things, the amendment also (i) permits the sale of certain specified parcels of real estate without counting such asset sales against the annual $25.0 million limit on asset sales and permits us to retain the net cash proceeds from such asset sales for the payment or settlement of workers’ compensation and bodily injury and property damage claims and (ii) allows us to add back to Consolidated EBITDA, for purposes of the applicable financial covenants the fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the amendment, the ABL facility amendment and our contribution deferral agreement. Refer to the "Liquidity" footnote of our consolidated financial statements for covenants for each of the remaining test periods.

ABL Facility

- Overview: Our ABL Facility provides for a $175.0 million ABL first-out delayed draw term loan facility (the “Term A Facility”) and a $225.0 million ABL last-out term loan facility (the “Term B Facility”). We collectively refer to these term loan facilities as our “ABL Facility”. The ABL Facility terminates on September 30, 2014 (the “Termination Date”). Pursuant to the terms of the ABL Facility, YRC Freight, Holland and Reddaway (each, one of our subsidiaries and each, an “Originator”) will each sell, on an ongoing basis, all accounts receivable originated by that Originator to YRCW Receivables LLC, a bankruptcy remote, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, which we refer to herein as the “ABL Borrower".

- Availability: The aggregate amount available under the ABL Facility is subject to a borrowing base equal to 85% of Net Eligible Receivables, plus 100% of the portion of the ABL Facility that has been cash collateralized, minus reserves established by the Agent in its permitted discretion. “Net Eligible Receivables” means, as of any day, the outstanding balance of eligible receivables, and reduced by specified concentration limits and unapplied cash. Subject to certain limitations, including compliance with the borrowing base, the ABL Borrower is entitled to request additional borrowings under the Term A Facility in an aggregate amount not to exceed $175.0 million prior to the Termination Date. On February 27, 2012, the Company entered into an amendment to the ABL Facility to clarify the calculation of the required reserves under the ABL Facility.

- Interest and Fees: Interest on outstanding borrowings is payable at a rate per annum equal to the reserve adjusted LIBOR rate (which is the greater of the adjusted LIBOR rate and 1.50%) or the “ABR Rate” (which is the greatest of the applicable prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, and the LIBOR rate plus 1.0%) plus an applicable margin, which, for loans under the Term A Facility are equal to 7.00% for LIBOR rate advances and 6.00% for ABR Rate advances, and for loans under the Term B Facility are equal to 9.75% for LIBOR rate advances and 8.75% for ABR Rate advances. We are required to pay a commitment fee equal to 7.00% per annum on the average daily unused portion of the commitment in respect of the Term A Facility.

- Collateral: The ABL Facility is secured by a perfected first priority security interest in and lien (subject to permitted liens) upon all accounts receivable (and the related rights) of the ABL Borrower, together with deposit accounts into which the proceeds from such accounts receivable are remitted (collectively, the “ABL Collateral”).

Pursuant to the terms of the ABL Facility, we were required to deposit an aggregate amount equal to $90.0 million into escrow accounts to secure our obligations under the ABL Facility, which we expect such amount to remain in escrow for the term of the ABL Facility; this amount is included in “Restricted amounts held in escrow”, a non-current asset on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Pursuant to the terms of a standstill agreement, certain trucks, other vehicles, rolling stock, terminals, depots or other storage facilities, in each case, whether leased or owned, are subject to a standstill period in favor of the collateral agent, the administrative agent and the other secured parties under the ABL Facility for a period of 10 business days (absent any exigent circumstances arising as a result of fraud, theft, concealment, destruction, waste or abscondment) with respect to the exercise of rights and remedies by the secured parties with respect to those assets under our other material debt agreements.

- Mandatory Prepayments: The ABL Facility is subject to payment on the following terms:


•	loans under the ABL Facility are subject to mandatory prepayment in connection with a borrowing base shortfall or loans in excess of the applicable commitment; any mandatory prepayments will be applied to cash collateralizing the loans under the ABL Facility; provided that any such cash collateral shall be released to the extent any such shortfall is reduced or eliminated;


•	borrowings under the Term B Facility are payable in equal quarterly amounts equal to 1.0% per annum, with the remaining balance payable on the Termination Date (as of December 31, 2012, we have paid $2.8 million);


•	subject to specified exceptions, loans under the Term B Facility may be voluntarily prepaid only upon the termination of commitments under the Term A Facility and payment in full of all loans thereunder; and


•	loans under the Term A Facility and the commitments in respect thereof (i) may not be prepaid and or terminated on or prior to the first anniversary of the closing date and (ii) are subject to a 1.0% prepayment premium after the first anniversary but on or prior to the second anniversary of the closing date.

- Covenants: The ABL Facility contains certain affirmative and negative covenants and “Termination Events,” including, without limitation, specified minimum consolidated adjusted EBITDA, unrestricted cash and capital expenditure trigger events (that are consistent with the credit agreement), and certain provisions regarding borrowing base reporting and delivery of financial statements.

Series A Convertible Senior Secured Notes

On July 22, 2011, we issued $140.0 million in aggregate principal of our Series A Convertible Senior Secured Notes ("Series A Notes") that bear interest at a stated rate of 10% per year and mature on March 31, 2015. Interest is payable on a semiannual basis in arrears only in-kind through the issuance of additional Series A Notes. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, there was $161.2 million and $146.3 million in aggregate principal amount of Series A Notes outstanding, after giving effect to the payment in-kind of interest on the Series A Notes.

The Series A Notes are convertible into our common stock beginning July 22, 2013. After such time, subject to certain limitations on conversion and issuance of shares, holders may convert any outstanding Series A Notes into shares of our common stock at the conversion price per share of approximately $34.0059 and a conversion rate of 29.4067 common shares per $1,000 of the Series A Notes. See "Conversions" section below for additional details regarding conversions on our Series A Notes.

The holders of the Series A Notes are entitled to vote with our common stock on an as-converted-to-common-stock-basis, provided that, such number of votes shall be limited to 0.1089 votes for each such share of common stock on an as-converted-to-common stock-basis. We may redeem the Series A Notes, in whole or in part, at any time at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date.

The indenture governing the Series A Notes contains covenants limiting, among other things, us and our restricted subsidiaries' ability to (i) create liens on assets and (ii) merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of our and our guarantors' assets.

The Series A Notes are guaranteed by all of our domestic subsidiaries that guarantee obligations under the credit agreement. The Series A Notes and the guarantees of the Series A Notes are our and the guarantors' senior obligations and are secured by junior priority liens on substantially the same collateral securing the credit agreement (other than any leasehold interests and equity interests of subsidiaries to the extent such pledge of equity interests would require increased financial statement reporting obligations pursuant to Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X). As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the common stock of our largest operating companies, such as YRC Inc., Holland, New Penn and Reddaway, would be excluded as collateral under these kick-out provisions.

Series B Convertible Senior Secured Notes

On July 22, 2011, we issued $100.0 million of our 10% Series B Convertible Senior Secured Notes ("Series B Notes") that bear interest at a stated rate of 10.0% per year and mature on March 31, 2015. Interest is payable on a semiannual basis in arrears only in-kind through the issuance of additional Series B Notes. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, there was $91.5 million and $98.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Series B Notes outstanding, after giving effect to the payment in-kind of interest on the Series B Notes offset by $15.5 million in aggregate principal amount of Series B Notes surrendered for conversion.

The Series B Notes are convertible into our common stock, at any time at the conversion price per share of approximately $18.5334 and a conversion rate of 53.9567 common shares per $1,000 of the Series B Notes (such conversion price and conversion rate applying also to the Series B Notes make whole premium). Upon conversion, holders of Series B Notes will not receive any cash payment representing accrued and unpaid interest; however, such holders will receive a make whole premium, equal to the total amount of interest received if the notes were held to their maturity, paid in shares of our common stock for the Series B Notes that were converted. See "Conversions" section below for additional details regarding conversions on our Series B Notes.

As of December 31, 2012, the effective conversion price and conversion rate for Series B Notes (after taking into account the make whole premium) was $14.5175 and 68.8821 common shares per $1,000 of Series B Notes, respectively.

The holders of the Series B Notes are entitled to vote with our common stock on an as-converted-to-common-stock-basis, provided that, such number of votes shall be limited to 0.0594 votes for each such share of common stock on an as-converted-to-common-stock-basis.

The Series B Notes indenture contains customary covenants limiting, among other things, our and our restricted subsidiaries' ability to:


•	pay dividends or make certain other restricted payments or investments;


•	incur additional indebtedness and issue disqualified stock or subsidiary preferred stock;


•	create liens on assets;


•	sell assets;


•	merge, consolidate, or sell all or substantially all of our or the guarantors' assets;


•	enter into certain transactions with affiliates; and


•	create restrictions on dividends or other payments by our restricted subsidiaries.

The Series B Notes are guaranteed by all of our domestic subsidiaries that guarantee obligations under the credit agreement. The Series B Notes and the guarantees of the Series B Notes are our and the guarantors' senior obligations and are secured by junior priority liens on substantially the same collateral securing the credit agreement (other than any leasehold interests and equity interests of subsidiaries to the extent such pledge of equity interests would require increased financial statement reporting obligations pursuant to Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X). As of December 31, 2012, the common stock of our largest operating companies, such as YRC Freight, Holland, New Penn and Reddaway, would be excluded as collateral under these kick-out provisions.

6% Convertible Senior Notes

On February 11, 2010, we entered into a note purchase agreement with certain investors pursuant to which such investors agreed, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, to purchase up to $70 million of our notes. These 6% Convertible Senior Notes ("6% Notes") bear interest at 6% which is payable on February 15 and August 15 of each year. To the extent we are not permitted to pay interest in cash under our senior secured bank credit facilities or we reasonably determine that we have insufficient funds to pay interest in cash, we are permitted to pay interest through the issuance of additional shares of our common stock subject to certain conditions. Our credit agreement no longer restricts our ability to pay cash interest to holders of the 6% Notes and we have paid cash interest to holders of the 6% Notes beginning with the August 15, 2011 interest payment date and expect to continue to make future interest payments in cash in lieu of paying interest with shares of common stock. Pursuant to the limitations of our credit agreement, we may not redeem the 6% Notes prior to the February 2014 maturity.

The notes are convertible, at the holder's option, at any time and from time to time, into shares of our common stock. The notes are currently convertible at a conversion price of $3,225 per share, which is equal to a conversion rate of approximately 0.3101 common shares per $1,000 principal amount of notes, subject to adjustment. The 6% Notes indenture provides that the maximum number of shares of our common stock that can be issued in respect of the 6% Notes upon conversion or with respect to the payment of interest or in connection with the make whole premium or otherwise shall be limited to 21,522 shares of common stock for $69.4 million in aggregate principal amount of the 6% Notes, subject to certain adjustments. If the limit is reached, no holder is entitled to any other consideration on account of shares not issued. See "Conversions" section below for additional details regarding conversions on our 6% Notes.

The 6% Notes are our senior unsecured obligations and rank equally with all of our other senior indebtedness and rank senior to any of our subordinated indebtedness outstanding or incurred in the future. The 6% Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain of our domestic subsidiaries.

Amended and Restated Contribution Deferral Agreement

- Overview: Certain of our subsidiaries are parties to the amended and restated contribution deferral agreement (the “A&R CDA”) with certain multiemployer pension funds named therein (collectively, the “Funds”) pursuant to which we are permitted to continue to defer pension payments and deferred interest owed to such Funds as of July 22, 2011 (each, “Deferred Pension Payments” and “Deferred Interest”). The A&R CDA is scheduled to mature on March 31, 2015, and there is no mandatory amortization prior to that time. The Deferred Pension Payments and Deferred Interest bears interest at a fixed rate, with respect to each Fund, per annum as set forth in its trust documentation as of February 28, 2011.

- Application of Certain Payments: Pursuant to the terms of the collective bargaining agreement with the IBT, the Company's subsidiaries began making contributions to the Funds for the month beginning June 1, 2011 at the rate of 25% of the contribution rate in effect on July 1, 2009. However, legislative changes to current law or other satisfactory action or arrangements are required to enable certain of the Funds (based on their funded status) to accept contributions at a reduced rate.

In accordance with the re-entry arrangements between each Fund and the primary obligors, a Fund may require the primary obligors to make payments of obligations owed to such Fund under the A&R CDA in lieu of payments required pursuant to the collective bargaining agreement with the IBT or make payments into an escrow arrangement, in each case in an amount equal to such Fund's current monthly contribution amount.

- Collateral: The Funds maintain their first lien on existing first priority collateral. The Funds allow the secured parties under the Series A Notes and Series B Notes (as each are defined above) a second lien behind the secured parties to the credit agreement on certain properties and the Funds have a third lien on such collateral.

- Most Favored Nations: If any of the obligors enter into an amendment, modification, supplementation or alteration of the credit agreement after July 22, 2011 that imposes any mandatory prepayment, cash collateralization, additional interest or fee or any other incremental payment to the lenders thereunder not required as of July 22, 2011, the primary obligors are required to pay the Funds 50% of a proportionate additional payment in respect of the Deferred Pension Payments and Deferred Interest, with certain exceptions.

- Guarantors: The A&R CDA is guaranteed by USF Glen Moore Inc. and Transcontinental Lease, S. de R.L. de C.V.

Lease Financing Transactions

During 2011 and 2010, we received $9.0 million and $45.0 million, respectively, in net cash proceeds from lease financing transactions with various parties. No such proceeds were received in 2012. The underlying transactions included providing title of certain real estate assets to the issuer in exchange for agreed upon proceeds; however, the transactions did not meet the accounting definition of a “sale leaseback” and as such, the assets remain on our balance sheet in the amount of the proceeds as long-term debt (titled Lease Financing Obligations). We are required to make monthly lease payments, which are recorded as principal and interest payments under these arrangements, generally over a term of ten years.

Standby Letter of Credit Agreement

On July 22, 2011, we entered into a Standby Letter of Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo, National Association (“Wells Fargo”) pursuant to which Wells Fargo issued one replacement letter of credit and permitted an existing letter of credit to remain outstanding and we pledged certain deposit accounts and securities accounts (collectively, the “Pledged Accounts”) to Wells Fargo to secure its obligations in respect of the letters of credit. We are required to maintain an amount equal to at least 101% of the face amount of the letters of credit in the Pledged Accounts. As of December 31, 2012, the Pledge Accounts were equal to $20.0 million and are included in “Restricted amounts held in escrow”, a current asset on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. We are required to pay (quarterly in arrears) a fee equal to 1.0% per annum on the average daily amount available to be drawn under each letter of credit during such quarter and expenses in connection with the issuance and maintenance of the letters of credit.

Conversions

During the year ended December 31, 2012, $15.5 million of aggregate principal amount of Series B Notes converted into 1.1 million shares of our common stock. Upon conversion, during the year ended December 31, 2012, we recorded $10.6 million of additional interest expense representing the $5.1 million make whole premium and $5.5 million of accelerated amortization of the discount on Series B Notes converted. As of December 31, 2012, the effective conversion price and conversion rate for Series B Notes (after taking into account the make whole premium) was $14.5175 and 68.8821 common shares per $1,000 of Series B Notes, respectively.

As of December 31, 2012 and February 15, 2013, there was $161.2 million in aggregate principal amount of Series A Notes outstanding that are convertible into approximately 5.9 million shares of our common stock at the maturity date.

As of December 31, 2012, there was $91.5 million in aggregate principal amount of Series B Notes outstanding that are convertible into approximately 6.1 million shares of our common stock (after taking into account the make whole premium). From December 31, 2012 through February 15, 2013, $5.8 million aggregate principal amount of Series B Notes converted into 0.3 million shares of common stock

As of December 31, 2012 and February 15, 2013, a maximum of 17,600 shares of our common stock is available for future issuances in respect of the 6% Notes. Such limitation on the number of shares of common stock issuable in respect of the 6% Notes applies on a pro rata basis to the $69.4 million in aggregate principal amount of outstanding 6% Notes.

Maturities

The principal maturities of total debt for the next five years and thereafter are as follows:



(in millions)	Restructured Term Loan		ABL Facility		Series A and B Notes ^(b)		6% Notes		Lease Financing Obligation ^(a)		A&R CDA		Other		Total

(b)	The Series A Notes exclude $39.6 million and the Series B Notes exclude $22.4 million of in-kind interest payments that will be due and payable if the notes are held to maturity.

Fair Value Measurement

The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of our long-term debt, including current maturities and other financial instruments, are summarized as follows:



	December 31, 2012				December 31, 2011
(in millions)	Carrying amount		Fair Value		Carrying amount		Fair Value
Restructured term loan	$	366.3	$	197.5	$	402.0	$	216.5

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]

Financial Restructuring

On July 22, 2011, we completed our financial restructuring that included the following transactions (collectively referred to herein as the “restructuring”):

•

an exchange offer, whereby we issued to our lenders under our then-existing credit agreement an aggregate of 3.7 million shares of our new Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, which were converted into 4.6 million shares of common stock on a post split basis, and $140.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our Series A Notes in exchange for a $305.0 million reduction of our credit agreement obligations;


•	the issuance and sale for cash to such lenders of $100.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our Series B Notes;


•	the execution of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, the ABL Facility and an A&R CDA with certain multi-employer pension funds;


•	the issuance of 1.3 million shares of our Series B Preferred Stock to the Teamster-National 401(k) Savings Plan for the benefit of the Company's IBT employees, which were converted into 1.6 million shares of common stock on a post split basis;


•	the issuance of one share of our new Series A Voting Preferred Stock to the IBT to confer certain board representation rights;


•	the repayment in full and termination of our then-outstanding ABS Facility and collateralizing a portion of our outstanding letters of credit with cash; and

•

the Teamsters National Freight Industry Negotiating Committee (“TNFINC”) of the IBT waived its right to terminate, and agreed not to further modify, the Agreement for the Restructuring of the YRC Worldwide Inc. Operating Companies, dated as of September 24, 2010 (as amended, the “2010 MOU”) such that the collective bargaining agreement will be fully binding until its specified term of March 31, 2015.

The table below summarizes the cash flow activity as it related to the restructuring as of July 22, 2011:



Sources of Funds (in millions)			Uses of Funds (in millions)
Issuance of Series B Notes	$	100.0	Retirement of ABS facility borrowings	$	164.2
Borrowings on the ABL facility	255.0		Restricted amounts held in escrow - Standby Letter of Credit Agreement	64.7
Additional borrowings under the revolving credit facility	18.5		Fees, expenses and original issue discount of restructuring	57.0
Company cash	2.4		Restricted amounts held in escrow - ABL facility	90.0
Total sources of funds	$	375.9	Total uses of funds	$	375.9

Following the restructuring, we amended and restated our certificate of incorporation on September 16, 2011 such that, among other things, all of our outstanding Series B Preferred Stock issued in the restructuring automatically converted into shares of our common stock and effected a one-for 300 reverse stock split on December 1, 2011.

Restructured Credit Agreement Claims

In connection with the restructuring, we exchanged $305.0 million of amounts due under our credit agreement for an aggregate of 3.7 million shares of Series B Preferred Stock and $140.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our Series A Notes. We estimated the fair value of the Series B Preferred Stock to be $43.2 million. We also converted the remaining Credit Agreement borrowings from the revolving credit facility to the restructured term loan, eliminated the unused revolving credit facility capacity and extended the Credit Agreement maturity date to March 31, 2015 for the $307.4 million aggregate principal amount restructured term loan and the $437.0 million letter of credit facility.

In accordance with FASB ASC 470-60, we accounted for this element of the restructuring as a troubled debt restructuring as the Company had been experiencing financial difficulty and the lenders granted a concession to the Company. We assessed the total future cash flows of the restructured debt as compared to the carrying amount of the original debt and determined the total future cash flows to be greater than the carrying amount at the date of the restructuring. As such, the carrying amount was not adjusted and no gain was recorded, consistent with troubled debt restructuring accounting.

The Credit Agreement's carryover basis was allocated to the Restructured Term Loan and Series A Notes on a relative fair value basis, after taking into account the Series B Preferred Stock and the conversion feature in the Series A Notes. The difference in the effective interest rates as compared to the stated interest rates for the restructured term loan and Series A Notes is a function of the underlying fair values of the respective instruments, due to the allocation of carryover basis on a relative fair value basis. Fair values of the respective instruments were based on a contemporaneous valuation using an option pricing model, a Level 3 fair value measurement.

The fair value of the Series B Preferred Stock was based on a contemporaneous valuation, whereas an estimated enterprise value was first calculated using assumptions related to market multiples of earnings, a market approach which is a Level 3 fair value measurement. The estimated enterprise value was then reduced by the fair value of our debt instruments post-restructuring, with the residual allocated to our Series B Preferred Stock and common stock. See further discussion regarding our Series B Preferred Stock in our "Shareholders' Deficit" footnote to our consolidated financial statements.

The conversion feature embedded in the Series A Notes was required to be bifurcated on the restructuring closing date and separately measured as a derivative liability, as the Company did not have enough authorized and unissued common shares to satisfy conversion of the Series A Notes. We estimated the fair value of the conversion feature based on a contemporaneous valuation using an option pricing model, a Level 3 fair value measurement, and determined the fair value to be $12.4 million.

On September 16, 2011, the Company held a special meeting of shareholders at which the Company's amended and restated certificate of incorporation was approved and the number of authorized common shares increased to allow for the conversions. This increase provided sufficient authorized common shares to satisfy the conversion feature in the Series A Notes, and thus the conversion feature in the Series A Notes was no longer required to be bifurcated and presented as a derivative liability. The conversion feature was adjusted to a fair value of $26.5 million on September 16, 2011, with the change of $14.1 million recorded as 'Fair value adjustment on derivative liabilities' in the accompanying statements of consolidated operations. The fair value of the conversion feature was then reclassified as an equity-classified derivative within 'Capital surplus' in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

We allocated $15.6 million of professional fees to this element of the restructuring, of which $14.0 million are related to the issuance of the Series A Notes and modifications to the credit agreement. Such amount has been recognized as 'Nonoperating restructuring transaction costs' in the accompanying statements of consolidated operations, consistent with troubled debt restructuring accounting. The remaining $1.6 million of professional fees are allocated to the issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock and have been recorded as a reduction to 'Capital surplus' in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

ABL Facility and Refinancing of ABS Facility

In connection with the restructuring, the Company entered into the ABL Facility, of which the Term A Facility was funded by lenders that did not participate in the ABS Facility and the Term B Facility was funded by one of the ABS Facility lenders. This element of the restructuring is being accounted for as an extinguishment of debt and issuance of new debt, for the portion of ABL Facility debt attributed to lenders that did not participate in the ABS Facility. For the portion of the ABL Facility debt attributed to the lender that participated in the ABS Facility, this element of the transaction is being accounted for as an exchange of line-of-credit or revolving-debt arrangements.

As a part of refinancing the ABS Facility, the lenders agreed to forgive accrued interest of $11.3 million and deferred commitment fees of $15.0 million. The forgiveness of the interest and fees along with the write-off of $1.2 million of unamortized deferred debt costs associated with the ABS Facility resulted in the recognition of a gain on the extinguishment of debt of $25.1 million. Such amount has been recognized as '(Gain) loss on extinguishment of debt' in the accompanying statements of consolidated operations.

We allocated $5.2 million of professional fees to this element of the restructuring. Such costs have been recorded as unamortized deferred debt costs in “Other assets” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet and will be recognized as interest expense over the term of the ABL Facility.

Restructured Contribution Deferral Agreement

In connection with the restructuring, we entered into the A&R CDA with certain multi-employer pension funds to which we contribute. Such amendment, among other things, revised the final maturity date from December 31, 2012 to March 31, 2015 for amounts outstanding at the date of the restructuring, converted accrued interest of $4.5 million at the time of the restructuring to principal, and increased the interest rate for the Central States Pension Fund, which represents 64.3% of the total amount outstanding under the CDA, to 7.5%. The impact of this element of the restructuring on our accompanying consolidated balance sheet was primarily limited to the reclassification of current obligations to non-current liabilities, due to the change in maturity date for all principal to March 31, 2015.

We allocated $3.8 million of professional fees to this element of the restructuring. Such amount has been recognized as 'Nonoperating restructuring transaction costs' in the accompanying statements of consolidated operations.

Series B Notes

The conversion feature embedded in the Series B Notes was required to be bifurcated on the restructuring date and separately measured as a derivative liability, as the Company did not have enough authorized and unissued common shares to satisfy conversion of the Series B Notes. We estimated the fair value of the conversion feature based on a contemporaneous valuation using an option pricing model, a Level 3 fair value measurement, and determined the fair value to be $41.7 million.

On September 16, 2011, the Company held a special meeting of shareholders at which the Company's amended and restated certificate of incorporation was approved and the number of authorized common shares to allow for the conversions. This increase provided sufficient authorized common shares to satisfy the conversion feature in the Series B Notes, and thus the conversion feature in the Series B Notes was no longer required to be bifurcated and presented as a derivative liability. The conversion feature was adjusted to a fair value of $106.8 million on September 16, 2011, with the change of $65.1 million recorded as 'Fair value adjustment on derivative liabilities' in the accompanying statements of consolidated operations. The $106.8 million fair value of the conversion feature was then reclassified as an equity-classified derivative within 'Capital surplus' in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

We allocated $2.1 million of professional fees to this element of the restructuring. Such costs have been recorded as unamortized deferred debt costs in “Other assets” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet and will be recognized as interest expense over the term of the Series B Notes.

Stock Compensation Plans

We have reserved 2.0 million shares for issuance to key management personnel and directors under the 2011 long-term incentive and equity award plan. As of December 31, 2012, 1.2 million shares remain available for issuance under this plan. The plan permits the issuance of restricted stock and share units, as well as options, stock appreciation rights, and performance stock and performance stock unit awards. Awards under the plan can be satisfied in cash or shares at the discretion of the Board of Directors. According to the plan provisions, the share units provide the holders the right to receive one share of our common stock upon vesting of one share unit. The plan requires the exercise price of any option equal to the closing market price of our common stock on the date of grant.

Stock Options

A summary of activity in our stock option plans is presented in the following table:



	Shares	Weighted Average Exercise Price per Share		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term	Aggregate Intrinsic Value
	(in thousands)	(in dollars)		(in years)	(in millions)

Exercisable at December 31, 2012	33	$	3,680.09	7.17	$	—

On March 1, 2010, we formalized the Second Union Employee Option Plan that provided for a grant of up to 31,000 options, including the effect of the reverse stock split, to purchase our common stock at an exercise price equal to $3,600.00 per share, of which all have been granted. As a part of the union wage reduction, we agreed to award a certain equity interest to all effected union employees. These options vested immediately, will expire 10 years from the grant date, and were exercisable upon shareholder approval, which was received on June 29, 2010, at our annual shareholder meeting.

The fair value of each option award was estimated on the date the grant was approved by shareholders using the Black-Scholes-Merton pricing model. Expected volatilities were estimated using historical volatility of our common stock. We used historical data to estimate option exercise and employee termination within the valuation model; separate groups of employees that have similar historical exercise behavior were considered separately for valuation purposes. The expected term of options granted was derived from the output of the valuation model and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

We valued the award granted under the Second Union Employee Option Plan in 2010 using the above described model with the following weighted average assumptions:



Dividend yield	—		%
Expected volatility	173.2		%
Risk-free interest rate	0.61		%
Expected option life (years)	2.0
Fair value per option	$	675.00

Based on the above fair value calculation, we recognized compensation expense of $25.0 million related to these outstanding stock option awards for the year ended December 31, 2010 which is included in “Equity based compensation expense” in our accompanying statement of consolidated operations.

The following table summarizes information about stock options outstanding as of December 31, 2012:



	Options Outstanding				Options Exercisable
	Shares	Weighted Average Remaining Contractual	Weighted Average		Shares	Weighted Average
Range of exercise prices	(in thousands)	Term (in years)	Exercise price		(in thousands)	Exercise price
$ 3,600.00 - 35,475.00	33	7.17	$	3,680.09	33	$	3,680.09

Restricted Stock

A summary of the activity of our nonvested restricted stock and share unit awards is presented in the following table:



	Shares (in thousands)		Weighted Average Grant-Date Fair Value
Nonvested at December 31, 2009	—		$	—
Nonvested at December 31, 2010	—		—
Granted	271		11.60
Vested	(1	)	11.60
Forfeited	—		—
Nonvested at December 31, 2011	270		11.60
Granted	586		11.34
Vested	(21	)	8.85
Forfeited	(83	)	11.63
Nonvested at December 31, 2012	752		$	11.47

We recognize expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting term. The vesting provisions for the restricted stock and share unit awards and the related number of shares granted during the year ended December 31 are as follows:



	Shares (in thousands)
Vesting Terms	2012	2011	2010
25% per year for four years	501	78	—
100% on February 20, 2013	72	—	—
33.3% immediately and 33.3% per year thereafter on the anniversary of the grant date	13	3	—
25% on January 1, 2013, 25% on the 2 year anniversary of the employment date, 25% on each employment anniversary thereafter	—	184	—
100% on July 27, 2013	—	6	—
Total restricted stock and share units granted	586	271	—

As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, there was $6.4 million and $3.2 million, respectively of unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements. That expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.7 years. The fair value of nonvested shares is determined based on the closing trading price of our shares on the grant date. The fair value of shares vested during the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 was not material.

At December 31, 2012, none of the outstanding awards under our stock compensation plans provide dividend participation features.

Teamster 401(k) Contribution

On July 22, 2011, the Company delivered into escrow 1.3 million shares of our Series B Preferred Stock, which were delivered from escrow on July 25, 2011, to the Teamster-National 401(k) Savings Plan for the benefit of the Company's IBT employees. The $14.9 million fair value of the1.3 million shares of Series B Preferred Stock issued was based on a contemporaneous valuation, whereas an estimated enterprise value was first calculated using assumptions related to market multiples of earnings, a market approach which is a level 3 fair value measurement. The estimated enterprise value was then reduced by the fair value of our debt instruments post-restructuring, with the residual allocated to our Series B Preferred Stock and common stock. On September 16, 2011, following approval from the shareholders of the Company's amended and restated certificate of incorporation the number of common shares increased and these preferred shares were automatically converted into 1.6 million shares of common stock.

This element of the restructuring was accounted for as the grant of a share-based payment award to employees and the $14.9 million charge for the share-based payments has been included in “Equity based compensation expense” in the accompanying statements of consolidated operations.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

Income Taxes

We use the liability method to reflect income taxes on our financial statements. We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities by applying enacted tax rates to the differences between the carrying value of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and to loss carryforwards. Tax credit carryforwards are recorded as deferred tax assets. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that the change occurs. We assess the validity of deferred tax assets and loss and tax credit carryforwards and provide valuation allowances when we determine it is more likely than not that such assets, losses, or credits will not be realized. We have not recognized deferred taxes relative to foreign subsidiaries' earnings that are deemed to be permanently reinvested. Any related taxes associated with such earnings are not material.

Deferred tax liabilities (assets) were comprised of the following at December 31:



(in millions)	2012			2011
Depreciation	$	327.8		$	375.2
Deferred revenue	12.2			12.4
Intangibles	36.3			45.5
Gain on debt redemption	63.9			64.5
Other	54.8			46.6
Deferred tax liabilities	495.0			544.2
Claims and insurance	(179.6		)	(204.6		)
Net operating loss carryforwards	(298.8		)	(230.5		)
Employee benefit accruals	(288.9		)	(238.2		)
Other	(173.6		)	(207.4		)
Deferred tax assets	(940.9		)	(880.7		)
Valuation allowance	448.4			336.6
Net deferred tax assets	(492.5		)	(544.1		)
Net deferred tax liability	$	2.5		$	0.1

The net deferred tax liability of $2.5 million as of December 31, 2012 is included in “Other current and accrued liabilities” in the accompanying balance sheets. Current income tax receivable was $27.3 million and $9.6 million as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and is included in “Prepaid expenses and other” in the accompanying balance sheets.

The Company has carried back the 2012 federal taxable loss to the extent allowed and claimed refunds of $16.5 million. As of December 31, 2012, the Company has remaining federal Net Operating Loss carryforwards of approximately $617.2 million, of which, an estimated $99.0 million will not be utilized due to limitations imposed by the Internal Revenue Code regarding the use of tax attributes following a deemed ownership change such as occurred in July, 2011. These carryforwards expire between 2030 and 2032 if not used. As of December 31, 2012, the Company has foreign tax credit carryforwards of approximately $15.3 million, none of which will be utilized due to the Internal Revenue Code limitations described above, and will expire between 2014 and 2018 if not used.

As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, valuation allowances of $448.4 million and $336.6 million have been established for certain deferred tax assets because, based on available sources of future taxable income, it is more likely than not that those assets will not be realized.

A reconciliation between income taxes at the federal statutory rate and the consolidated effective tax rate follows:



	2012		2011		2010
Federal statutory rate	35.0	%	35.0	%	35.0	%
State income taxes, net	(1.8	)%	(1.1	)%	3.8	%
Foreign tax rate differential	2.6	%	—	%	—	%
Permanent differences	8.6	%	(6.3	)%	—	%
Valuation allowance	(39.8	)%	(35.4	)%	(15.1	)%
Net (increase) decrease in unrecognized tax benefits	(1.7	)%	3.7	%	—	%
Benefit from settlement of Tax Court litigation	6.4	%	—	%	—	%
Other, net	0.6	%	6.2	%	0.3	%
Effective tax rate	9.9	%	2.1	%	24.0	%

The income tax provision (benefit) consisted of the following:



(in millions)	2012			2011			2010
Current:

Uncertain Tax Positions

A rollforward of the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits for the years ended December 31 is as follows:



(in millions)		2012			2011
Unrecognized tax benefits at January 1		$	27.1		$	45.1

Increases related to:
	Tax positions taken during a prior period	3.6			1.2
	Tax positions taken during the current period	0.9			—

Decreases related to:
	Tax positions taken during a prior period	—			(15.7		)
	Lapse of applicable statute of limitations	(1.9		)	—
	Settlements with taxing authorities	—			(3.5		)

Unrecognized tax benefits at December 31		$	29.7		$	27.1

At December 31, 2012 and 2011, there are $25.8 million and $23.9 million of benefits that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate. We accrued interest of $2.2 million and $1.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 and reversed $5.6 million of previously accrued interest on uncertain tax positions during the year ended December 31, 2012 for a net reduction of $3.4 million for 2012. The reversal related primarily to a favorable resolution of prior uncertain positions. The total amount of interest accrued for uncertain tax positions is $15.7 million and $19.1 million as of as of December 31, 2012 and 2011. During the year ended December 31, 2011, we paid tax of $3.3 million and interest of $2.2 million to settle an IRS audit of tax years 2002-04 for a consolidated group acquired in 2005 and reduced our previously recorded tax contingency accordingly. We have not accrued any penalties relative to uncertain tax positions. We have elected to treat interest and penalties on uncertain tax positions as interest expense and other operating expenses, respectively.

It is reasonably possible that the existing unrecognized tax benefits may decrease over the next twelve months by as much as $18.0 million as a result of developments in examinations and/or litigation, or from the expiration of statutes of limitation.

Tax years that remain subject to examination for our major tax jurisdictions as of December 31, 2012:



Statute remains open		2005-2011
Tax years currently under examination/exam completed		2005-2011
Tax years not examined		2012

- Definition

The entire disclosure for income taxes. Disclosures may include net deferred tax liability or asset recognized in an enterprise's statement of financial position, net change during the year in the total valuation allowance, approximate tax effect of each type of temporary difference and carryforward that gives rise to a significant portion of deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets, utilization of a tax carryback, and tax uncertainties information.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Business Segments

We report financial and descriptive information about our reportable operating segments on a basis consistent with that used internally for evaluating segment performance and allocating resources to segments. We evaluate performance primarily on operating income and return on invested capital.

We have the following reportable segments, which are strategic business units that offer complementary transportation services to their customers. YRC Freight includes carriers that provide comprehensive national, regional and international services. Regional Transportation is comprised of carriers that focus primarily on business opportunities in the next-day and regional delivery markets. Truckload consists of Glen Moore, a former domestic truckload carrier. On December 15, 2011, we sold a majority of the assets of Glen Moore to a third party for $18.5 million and ceased the operations. We recognized a $4.6 million loss on the sale of these assets which is included in the Truckload segment for 2011.

Effective April 1, 2010 until its deconsolidation in the first quarter of 2012, the results of Jiayu are reflected in our consolidated results as part of the Corporate Segment.

We charge management fees and other corporate services to our segments based upon usage or on an overhead allocation basis. Corporate and other operating losses represent operating expenses of the holding company, including compensation and benefits and professional services for all periods presented. Corporate identifiable assets primarily refer to cash, cash equivalents, technology assets and deferred debt issuance costs as well as our investment in JHJ. Intersegment revenue relates to transportation services between our segments.

Revenue from foreign sources totaled $158.3 million, $186.8 million, and $170.8 million in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and is largely derived from Canada, Asia and Mexico. Long-lived assets located in foreign countries totaled $14.7 million, $15.5 million and $19.2 million at December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively.

Shareholders' Deficit

12 Months Ended

Dec. 31, 2012

Stockholders' Equity Note [Abstract]

Shareholders' Deficit

Shareholders’ Deficit

The Company designated one of the authorized shares of preferred stock as its Series A Voting Preferred Stock. The Series A Voting Preferred Stock has a $1 liquidation value and entitles the holder to elect two directors to the Company's Board of Directors. The one share of Series A Voting Preferred Stock was issued to the IBT on July 22, 2011 in connection with the restructuring. The Series A Voting Preferred Stock was recorded at its liquidation value.

The Company designated 4,999,999 of the authorized shares of preferred stock as its Series B Preferred Stock. As part of the restructuring, we issued an aggregate of 4,999,999 shares of Series B Preferred Stock to satisfy a portion of the outstanding credit agreement claims (3,717,948 shares) and to satisfy our obligation to the IBT for their modifications of the MOU in both 2009 and 2010 (1,282,051 shares). On September 16, 2011, these preferred shares were immediately convertible into our common stock upon effectiveness of the Charter Agreement Merger and increase in authorized common shares. At the date of issuance, the Company did not have sufficient authorized and unissued common shares to satisfy the conversion of all of the Series B Preferred Stock and as such, the Company considered the guidance under ASC Topic 815-40 and determined that conversion was not within the Company's control for the Series B Preferred Stock and therefore classified the Series B Preferred Stock as temporary equity for the period July 22, 2011 through September 16, 2011, at which such time the Series B Preferred Stock converted into common shares.

The Series B Preferred Stock contained a beneficial conversion feature that was in-the-money on July 22, 2011. The $58.0 million fair value of the Series B Preferred Stock was allocated to this beneficial conversion feature at July 22, 2011, resulting in a discount recorded against the Series B Preferred Stock of $58.0 million, with the offset recorded to 'Capital surplus'. Upon effectiveness of the Charter Agreement Merger and increase in authorized common shares on September 16, 2011, the $58.0 million discount recorded against the Series B Preferred Stock was amortized into 'Accumulated deficit'.

The amortization of the discount recorded against the Series B Preferred Stock increased the net loss attributable to common shareholders in the calculation of basic and diluted loss per share.

On September 16, 2011, the Company's stockholders approved an amendment to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of the Company's capital stock from 85.0 million shares to 10.005 billion shares of which 5.0 million shares are preferred stock, par value $1.00 per share, and 10.0 billion shares are common stock, par value $0.01 per share. On September 16, 2011, the Company filed a Certificate of Merger with the Delaware Secretary of State in connection with which the Company's certificate of incorporation was amended and restated.

On September 16, 2011, the Company's stockholders approved an amendment to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the Company's common stock following the effectiveness of the authorized share increase described above, at a ratio to be determined by the Company's board of directors and within a range of one-for-50 to one-for-300; and reduce the number of authorized shares of the Company's common stock by the reverse split ratio.

The board of directors approved the reverse stock split effective December 1, 2011 at a ratio of 1:300. The reverse stock split was effective on NASDAQ on December 2, 2011. Fractional shares were not issued in connection with the reverse stock split. Fractional shares were collected and pooled by our transfer agent and sold in the open market and the proceeds were allocated to the stockholders' respective accounts pro rata in lieu of fractional shares.

See the "Principles of Consolidation" footnote to our consolidated financial statements for additional disclosures regarding the effects of the reverse stock split.

On February 17, 2010, the Company's stockholders approved the following:

•

an amendment to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation to reduce the par value of the Company's common stock from $1.00 to $0.01 per share; and increase the number of authorized shares of the Company's capital stock from 9.8 million shares to 85.0 million shares of which five million shares are preferred stock, par value $1.00 per share, and 80.0 million shares are common stock, par value $0.01 per share; and

•

an amendment to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the Company's common stock following the effectiveness of the par value reduction and the authorized share increase described above, at a ratio to be determined by the Company's board of directors and within a range of one-to-five to one-for-25; and reduce the number of authorized shares of the Company's common stock by the reverse split ratio.

On February 17, 2010, the Company filed the amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation to increase its authorized common stock and change the par value of the stock. Effective with that amendment, 4.3 million shares of the Class A preferred stock automatically converted into 0.1 million shares of common stock at a ratio of 34.04 shares of common stock for each share of Class A preferred stock.

The board of directors approved a reverse stock split effective September 30, 2010 at a ratio of 1:25. The reverse stock split was effective on NASDAQ on October 1, 2010. Fractional shares were not issued in connection with the reverse stock split. Fractional shares were collected and pooled by our transfer agent and sold in the open market and the proceeds were allocated to the stockholders' respective accounts pro rata in lieu of fractional shares.

See "Principles of Consolidation" footnote to our consolidated financial statements for additional disclosures regarding the effects of the reverse stock split.

On May 3, 2010, we entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement. During the three months ended June 30, 2010, we sold 6,000 shares for net proceeds of $15.4 million. No additional At the Market transactions were completed during the remaining period in 2010.

In connection with Amendment No. 18 to the ABS Facility, we paid fees to the Co-Agents (the “Closing Fees”). The Closing Fees were paid by the Company by the issuance to the Co-Agents (or their designees) of an aggregate of 3,000 shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share, of which a portion were issued as of June 30, 2010 and the remaining were issued on July 22, 2010.

The following reflects the activity in the shares of our preferred and common stock for the years ended December 31:



	Preferred Shares					Common Shares
(in thousands)	2012	2011		2010		2012	2011	2010
Beginning balance	—	—		4,346		6,847	159	13

In addition the activity above, one share of Series A Voting preferred stock was issued to the IBT for the right to elect two members of the Board of Directors.

Our current Credit Agreement restricts the ability of YRC Worldwide to declare dividends on its outstanding capital stock.

Loss Per Share	12 Months Ended
Loss Per Share	Dec. 31, 2012
Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Loss Per Share	Loss Per Share We present both basic and diluted EPS amounts. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. In periods with net income, diluted EPS is based upon the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the year which is calculated using the treasury stock method for stock options and restricted stock units, the if-converted method for convertible notes, and assumes conversion of our convertible senior notes based on the related fiscal year financial data. In periods with net loss, diluted EPS uses the same shares as basic EPS with no consideration of the if-converted method on the numerator. Given our net loss position for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, there are no dilutive securities for these periods. Antidilutive options and share units were 771,700, 302,700 and 37,300 at December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively. Antidilutive 6% convertible senior note conversion shares, including the make whole premium, were convertible into 17,600, 17,600 and 18,300 common shares at December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively. Antidilutive Series A convertible note conversion shares were 4,740,000 and 4,300,000 at December 31, 2012 and 2011, with no corresponding amount at December 31, 2010. Antidilutive Series B convertible note conversion shares, including the make whole premiums, were 6,149,000 and 7,261,000 at December 31, 2012 and 2011, with no corresponding amount at December 31, 2010.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

Commitments, Contingencies, and Uncertainties

Financial Matters

We incur rental expenses under noncancelable lease agreements for certain buildings and operating equipment. Rental expense is charged to “Operating expense and supplies” or “Purchased transportation” on the accompanying statements of operations. Rental expense was $78.0 million, $79.4 million, and $77.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

At December 31, 2012, we were committed under noncancelable lease agreements requiring minimum annual rentals payable as follows:



(in millions)	2013		2014		2015		2016		2017		Thereafter
Minimum annual rentals	$	52.1	$	41.9	$	25.3	$	9.8	$	6.1	$	16.4

We expect in the ordinary course of business that leases will be renewed or replaced as they expire. The leases provide for fixed and escalating rentals and contingent escalating rentals based on the Consumer Price Index not to exceed certain specified amounts. We record rent expense for our operating leases on a straight-line basis over the base term of the lease agreements. In many cases our leases are entered into by a subsidiary and a parent guarantee is issued. The maximum potential amount of undiscounted future payments under the guarantee are the same as the minimum annual rentals disclosed above.

As of December 31, 2012, we have $6.7 million committed for capital expenditures to be completed during 2013.

ABF Lawsuit

On November 1, 2010, ABF Freight System, Inc. (“ABF”) filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Arkansas against several parties, including our subsidiaries YRC Inc., New Penn Motor Express, Inc. and USF Holland Inc. and the International Brotherhood of Teamsters and the local Teamster unions party to the National Master Freight Agreement (“NMFA”) alleging violation of the NMFA due to modifications to the NMFA that provided relief to our subsidiaries without providing the same relief to ABF. The complaint sought to have the modifications to the NMFA declared null and void and damages of $750.0 million from the named defendants. We believe the allegations are without merit.

On December 17, 2010, the District Court dismissed the complaint. ABF appealed the dismissal on January 18, 2011 to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 8th Circuit. On July 6, 2011, the Court of Appeals vacated the District Court's dismissal of the litigation on jurisdictional grounds and remanded the case back to the District Court for further proceedings. ABF filed an amended complaint on October 12, 2011, containing allegations consistent with the original complaint. Our subsidiaries filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint. On August 1, 2012, the District Court dismissed ABF's amended complaint without prejudice. ABF has appealed the dismissal to the Court of Appeals. Although we believe we have meritorious defenses to this case, the ultimate outcome of this matter is not determinable; therefore, we have not recorded any liability.

Bryant Holdings Securities Litigation

On February 7, 2011, a putative class action was filed by Bryant Holdings LLC ("Bryant") in the U.S. District Court for the District of Kansas on behalf of purchasers of our common stock between April 24, 2008 and November 2, 2009, inclusive (the "Class Period"), seeking damages under the federal securities laws for statements and/or omissions allegedly made by us and the individual defendants during the Class Period which plaintiffs claimed to be false and misleading.

On April 8, 2011, an individual (Stan Better) and YRC Investors Group, a group of investors (including Bryant) filed competing motions seeking to be named lead plaintiff in the lawsuit. The Court appointed them as co-lead plaintiffs on August 22, 2011. Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint on December 20, 2011 making claims similar to Bryant's original complaint. We filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint on December 20, 2011. On September 25, 2012, the Court denied our motion to dismiss. In overruling our motion, the Court ruled that the allegations filed by plaintiffs were sufficient enough to state a claim. The Court's order did not constitute a ruling on the truth of plaintiffs' factual allegations or the ultimate merits of their claims.

The individual defendants are former officers of our Company. No current officers or directors have been named in the lawsuit. Limited discovery has commenced and a mediation is set for March 11, 2013. Although we believe we have meritorious defenses to the claims in this case, we believe the ultimate outcome of the case is not determinable at this time. Therefore, we have not recorded any liability for this matter.

Other Legal Matters

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

Condensed Consolidating Financial Statements

Guarantees [Abstract]

Condensed Consolidating Financial Statements

Guarantees of the 6% Convertible Senior Notes Due 2014

On February 23, 2010 and August 3, 2010, we issued $70 million in aggregate principal amount of our 6% convertible senior notes due 2014 (the “6% Notes”). In connection with the 6% Notes, the following 100% owned subsidiaries of YRC Worldwide have issued guarantees in favor of the holders of the notes: YRC Inc., YRC Enterprise Services, Inc., Roadway LLC, Roadway Next Day Corporation, YRC Regional Transportation, Inc., USF Holland Inc., USF Reddaway Inc., USF Glen Moore Inc. and YRC Logistics Services, Inc. Each of the guarantees is full and unconditional and joint and several, subject to customary release provisions. Effective December 31, 2011, USF Sales Corporation and IMUA Handling Corporation were released as guarantors in connection with their merger with and into YRC Regional Transportation, Inc.

The condensed consolidating financial statements are presented in lieu of separate financial statements and other related disclosures of the subsidiary guarantors and issuer because management does not believe that such separate financial statements and related disclosures would be material to investors. There are currently no significant restrictions on the ability of YRC Worldwide or any guarantor to obtain funds from its subsidiaries by dividend or loan.

The following represents condensed consolidating financial information as of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, with respect to the financial position and for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, for results of operations and the statement of cash flows of YRC Worldwide and its subsidiaries. The Parent column presents the financial information of YRC Worldwide, the primary obligor of the convertible senior notes. The Guarantor Subsidiaries column presents the financial information of all guarantor subsidiaries of the convertible senior notes. The Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries column presents the financial information of all non-guarantor subsidiaries, including those subsidiaries that are governed by foreign laws and YRCW Receivables LLC, the special purpose entity that is associated with our ABL facility.

- Definition

The amount of the gain (loss) recognized by the parent and included in its attributable portion of net income for the period due to deconsolidation of a subsidiary or derecognition of a group of assets. The gain (loss) recognized and included in the net income attributable to the parent for the period is generally computed as the difference between: (a) the aggregate of: (1) the fair value of any consideration received; (2) the fair value of any retained noncontrolling investment in the former subsidiary at the date the subsidiary was deconsolidated; and (3) the carrying amount of any noncontrolling interest in the former subsidiary (including any accumulated other comprehensive income attributable to the noncontrolling interest) at the date the subsidiary was deconsolidated and (b) the carrying amount of the former subsidiary's assets and liabilities.

- Definition

The amount of pension and other (such as medical, dental and life insurance) postretirement benefit costs recognized during the period for (1) defined benefit plans (periodic benefit costs include the following components: service cost, interest cost, expected return on plan assets, gain (loss) on assets, prior service cost or credit, transition asset or obligation, and gain (loss) due to settlements or curtailments) and for (2) defined contribution plans (to the extent that a plan's defined contributions to an individual's account are to be made for periods in which that individual renders services, the net cost for a period is the contribution called for in that period; if a plan calls for contributions for periods after an individual retires or terminates, the estimated cost is accrued during the employee's service period).
