Low has previously reported his acquisition of 539,600 shares of the common stock, $1.00 par value (the "KLLM Common Stock"), of KLLM Transport Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer"), 135 Riverview Drive, Richland, Mississippi 39218, in an initial Schedule 13D filing dated January 5, 2000 (the "Schedule 13D"), and amendments thereto dated February 1, 2000 and February 10, 2000. On March 16, 2000, Mr. Low, filed a third amendment to his Schedule 13D disclosure for the limited purpose of confirming the creation of a group relating to the beneficial ownership of KLLM Common Stock, and to denote the membership of Mr. Low, Richard D. Hoedl and C. Stephan Wutke in such group (Mr. Low, Mr. Hoedl and Mr. Wutke are sometimes referred to hereinafter as the "Reporting Persons"). The Reporting Persons are filing this Amendment No. 4 to amend and supplement Mr. Low's previously filed Schedule 13D, as heretofore amended. Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer. On March 29, 2000, the Issuer, through John M. Grayson, Jr. of Morgan Keegan & Company, Inc., Memphis, Tennessee, delivered to Mr. Low a form of a confidentiality agreement, presumably as a condition to permitting Mr. Low access to non-public confidential information required in connection with an evaluation and due diligence review of the Issuer. Because the form of confidentiality agreement submitted on behalf of the Issuer contained provisions unacceptable to Mr. Low, including a two year standstill restriction, Mr. Low would not sign it. By letter dated March 30, 2000, Mr. Low responded to the form of confidentiality agreement submitted on behalf of the Issuer. A copy of this letter is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.3. Item 7. Material to be Filed as Exhibits. Exhibit 99.3 - Letter from Robert E. Low to John M. Grayson, Jr. of Morgan Keegan & Company, Inc., dated March 30, 2000. SIGNATURE After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and correct. Date: March 31, 2000 /s/ Robert E. Low -------------------------------------- (Signature) Robert E. Low -------------------------------------- (Name and Title) /s/ Richard D.

[Robert E. Low's Letterhead] March 30, 2000 John M. Grayson, Jr. Morgan Keegan & Company, Inc. Morgan Keegan Tower 50 Front Street. Memphis, Tennessee 38103 Dear Mr. Grayson: This letter is to acknowledge receipt today of the confidentiality agreement in letter form dated March 28, 2000 submitted by you on behalf of your client, KLLM Transport Services, Inc. Hopefully, your submission of the confidentiality agreement indicates the willingness of your client in not only making available to me the information necessary to conduct a due diligence review for the purpose of evaluating a potential transaction with KLLM, but to begin exploratory discussions with regard to such a transaction. Although I fully expected and would be willing to sign a reasonable confidentiality agreement providing KLLM with appropriate protection as to the information furnished to me, I was disappointed in the form of confidentiality agreement submitted to me primarily because of its inclusion of a two year standstill provision. As you probably expect, I would be unwilling to undertake such a "standstill" position. My interest is to pursue discussions with your client on a friendly basis and I believe that the holding of such exploratory discussions would be in the best interest of KLLM and its stockholders. However, I will not sacrifice virtually all of the options and alternatives otherwise available to me without assurances that we will be able to negotiate a transaction supported by the KLLM Board. I hope that the form of confidentiality agreement submitted to me merely represents your firm's customary first attempt to obtain a confidentiality agreement and does not indicate the unwillingness of the KLLM Board to hold exploratory discussions and to permit the orderly conduct of a due diligence review by inclusion of unacceptable provisions such as the standstill paragraph. I am enclosing for your information a form of confidentiality agreement reflecting the type of agreement I would be willing to sign. I would appreciate your prompt response. Very truly yours, /s/ Robert E. Low Robert E. Low -----END PRIVACY-ENHANCED MESSAGE-----
