TABLE OF CONTENTS
Item 8.01 Other Events.
On September 8, 2009, Ryder System, Inc. (“Ryder”) issued a press release announcing that
approximately $289 million aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 5.95% Notes due May 2011,
5.0% Notes due April 2011 and 4.625% Notes due April 2010 (collectively, the “Notes”) had been
validly tendered and not validly withdrawn in the previously announced cash tender offer (the
“Offer”) for up to $100 million aggregate principal amount of Notes. Pursuant to the terms of the
Offer, Ryder accepted for purchase $100 million aggregate principal amount of the tendered Notes.
A copy of the press release announcing the results of the Offer is furnished hereto as Exhibit
99.1.
From time to time in the future, Ryder may acquire Notes that were not purchased in the Offer,
or other outstanding notes, through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions,
tender offers, exchange offers or otherwise, upon such terms and at such prices as Ryder may
determine, which may be more or less than the price to be paid pursuant to the Offer and could be
for cash or other consideration. Alternatively, Ryder may, subject to certain conditions, redeem
any or all of the Notes not purchased pursuant to the Offer at any time that it is permitted to do
so under the respective indentures governing the Notes.
