On June 11, 2008, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York ruled that The Children's Investment Fund and 3G Capital Partners (together, the "TCI Group") have violated federal securities laws. The Court also rejected the counterclaims filed by the TCI Group against the Company and Michael Ward in their entirety. The Court's opinion has been posted on the Company's Internet website ( http://2008annualmeeting.csx.com ) in connection with the 2008 annual meeting of shareholders and is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

In connection with the Court's ruling, on June 11, 2008, the Company issued a press release and on June 12, 2008, the Company issued an employee communication. The press release and the employee communication are attached hereto as Exhibits 99.2 and 99.3, respectively.
