Item 1.01 Entry into Material Definitive Agreements

On January 4, 2005, Total Logistics, Inc. (“TLCX”), SUPERVALU INC. (“SUPERVALU”) and Titan Acquisition Corp. (“TAC”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”).

The Merger Agreement provides for the acquisition of TLCX by SUPERVALU by means of a cash tender offer commenced by TAC to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of TLCX’s Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), at a price of $28.50 per share, net to the seller without interest (the “Offer Price”). The tender offer is subject to at least seventy-five percent of the outstanding shares of Common Stock being validly tendered and not withdrawn. Any shares of Common Stock not acquired by TAC in the tender offer will be acquired at Offer Price in cash in a subsequent merger of TAC with and into TLCX. All TLCX stock options outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger will be cancelled and exchanged for the right to receive cash in an amount equal to the number of shares of TLCX common stock subject to such options multiplied by the excess, if any, of the Offer Price over the exercise price of such options. All restricted shares of Common Stock will become unrestricted as a result of the tender offer and will be acquired at the Offer Price.

TLCX and SUPERVALU have made customary representations, warranties and covenants in the Merger Agreement and consummation of the tender offer and the merger are subject to various customary conditions, including the receipt of regulatory approvals. The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights for both TLCX and SUPERVALU and further provides that, upon termination of the Merger Agreement upon certain conditions, reimbursement of expenses or a termination fee may be due to one of the parties.

The description of the Merger Agreement contained herein is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement and to the press release of TLCX, dated January 4, 2005, which are filed as Exhibits 2.4 and 99.1, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.

On January 4, 2005, the Board of Directors of TLCX approved the prior recommendation of the Compensation and Nominating Committee to enter into a Confidentiality and Non-Compete Agreement with John Buono, TLCX’s Chief Financial Officer. Under the Confidentiality and Non-Compete Agreement, Mr. Buono has agreed that in the event his employment with TLCX is terminated (by TLCX or by Mr. Buono) on or before December 31, 2005, then for the six-month period after termination of his employment (the “Non-Compete Period”), he will (a) hold in strict confidence and not use or communicate any confidential information regarding TLCX and (b) not compete with TLCX or solicit TLCX’s employees or customers. As consideration for the foregoing, upon termination of his employment with TLCX, Mr. Buono will receive from TLCX a payment equal to $65,000, as well as continued coverage under TLCX’s health, dental, vision and prescription drug plans for the Non-Compete Period. If the employment of Mr. Buono is not terminated prior to December 31, 2005, then Mr. Buono’s Confidentiality and Non-Compete Agreement will expire.

The description of the Confidentiality and Non-Compete Agreement contained herein is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Confidentiality and Non-Compete Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.8 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

Also on January 4, 2005, the Board of Directors of TLCX approved the prior recommendation of the Compensation and Nominating Committee to fully vest all outstanding options held by Mr. Buono, to the extent not already exercisable, upon a Change in Control (as such term is defined in TLCX’s 1998 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended).
