Exhibit 99.1

Con-way Inc.

Reason for the Tender Offer Blackout Period and This Notice

In the Reason for the Tender Offer Blackout Period and This Notice, dated September 24, 2015 (the “Prior Notice”), that was previously delivered to you, you were notified of a trading restriction (the “Prior Tender Offer Blackout Period”) that would be imposed because of a blackout period under the Con-way Personal Savings Plan, the Con-way 401(k) Plan and the Con-way Retirement Savings Plan (collectively, the “Plans”). The Prior Tender Offer Blackout Period, which began on October 9, 2015 and would have ended on the date that the Plans received and allocated the tender offer consideration described below to Plan accounts, was necessary for the process of exchanging shares of common stock of Con-way Inc. (the “Company”) under the Plans for cash as part of the tender offer commenced by Canada Merger Corp. (the “Purchaser”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of XPO Logistics, Inc., on September 15, 2015 (the “Tender Offer”) in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Agreement and Plan of Merger by and among the Company, XPO Logistics, Inc. and the Purchaser (the “Merger Agreement”). On October 19, 2015, the Company was notified by the Purchaser that the period during which individuals may tender shares of the Company’s common stock had been extended until October 30, 2015. To accommodate this extension, notice is being provided that the Prior Tender Offer Blackout Period has been lifted and that a trading restriction beginning October 27, 2015 (the “Tender Offer Blackout Period”) may need to be imposed because of a blackout period under the Plans. During the Tender Offer Blackout Period, tendering participants would be unable to engage in transactions, such as obtaining loans or distributions from, or diversifying or otherwise changing, the portion of their account balances invested in the Company’s common stock. Further, the trading restrictions in effect during the Tender Offer Blackout Period would be in addition to other restrictions on trading activity that the Company imposes on its executive officers and directors, including under the Company’s insider trading policy and any administrative blackout related to the Company’s online incentive award platform.

As a result of the Tender Offer Blackout Period, Regulation BTR requires that we impose trading restrictions on directors and executive officers during the Tender Offer Blackout Period if fifty (50%) or more of participants in any of the Plans who hold shares of the Company’s common stock under such Plan elect to tender those shares. Pursuant to Rule 104 of Regulation BTR, the Company is required to timely notify its directors and executive officers, as well as the SEC, of the Tender Offer Blackout Period. Consequently, although we are unable to gauge at this time whether fifty percent (50%) or more of participants in any of the Plans who hold shares of our common stock under such Plan will actually participate in the Tender Offer (and thus actually trigger the imposition of this mandatory trading restriction period), we are required nevertheless to plan for the institution of trading restrictions during the Tender Offer Blackout Period as set forth in this notice. If fewer than fifty percent (50%) of the participants in each Plan who hold shares of our common stock under such Plan actually elect to participate in the Tender Offer, we will notify you promptly, and in such a case no trading restrictions will actually be implemented.

While the Tender Offer Blackout Period is in effect, the executive officers and directors (and their immediate family members who share their residence) should not, directly or indirectly, engage in any purchase, sale, transfer, acquisition, or disposition of any equity securities of the Company relating to the Company’s common stock and any options with respect to any of these stocks. There are limited exclusions and exemptions from this rule. For example, transactions that are executed pursuant to a properly adopted Rule 10b5-1 plan and the tendering of shares into the Tender Offer are exempt from the foregoing SOX blackout trading restrictions.

This notice constitutes a Rule 104 notice of a blackout period.
