leave the service of Company, or by employing or contracting with any such personnel. The
provisions of this Section 10 shall be construed as an Agreement independent of any other
provision contained herein and shall be enforceable in both Law and Equity, including by

of action by Employee against Company, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Company terminates Employee’s employment for convenience

customers, brokers and/or clients, and Employee agrees that Employee will neither make nor
retain copies of such materials after termination of employment.

full extent allowed by law, any and all monies owed by Employee to Company for any reason
whatsoever, including, but not limited to the correction of payroll errors and/or advanced
vacation time.
	 
	14.	 	NON-WAIVER. The failure of either party to insist upon the performance of any of the

any rights hereunder may be assigned, pledged or encumbered by Employee without the written
consent of Company.

written, and constitutes that final and entire agreement and understanding of the parties,
all prior representations and agreements having been merged into this Agreement, and this
Agreement shall amend, restate and replace all prior employment agreements entered into
between Company and Employee. No waiver or modification of this Agreement or of any
covenant, condition, or limitation shall be valid unless in

cars to or from the Track, which yield road haul revenue to the Railroad within any twelve (12)
month period (hereafter “Twelve-month Period”). If the Industry falls to do business in an active
and substantial manner over the Track in any Twelve-Month Period, the industry agrees to pay the
Railroad, in addition to any other charges specified in this Agreement, an annual fee of SIX
THOUSAND DOLLARS ($6,000,00) for the maintenance of the initial switch connections (hereinafter the
“Maintenance Fee”). Such payment shall entitle industry to a continuation of service unless the

judgment determines that the Maintenance Fee does not justify the continuation of the
Agreement. In such cases, the Railroad shall inform industry of its decision as soon as
practicable. The switch connection consists of that portion of the Track from the point of switch
to the clearance point. The Maintenance Fee shall be paid annually in advance, beginning with the
commencement date of any applicable respective Twelve-Month Period and shall continue to be paid in
advance for subsequent Twelve-Month Period that the industry fails to do business in an active and
substantial manner over the Track. It is understood that any Maintenance Fee paid by the industry
for a Twelve-Month Period shall be refunded to the Industry in the
event the Industry commences doing business in an active and
substantial manner over the Track for any applicable respective
Twelve-Month Period. The aforesaid Maintenance Fee is the Railroad’s current system wide
charge and the Railroad may adjust it at twelve-month (or greater) intervals to reflect the
Railroad’s then-current rate used system wide, subject to the terms, provisions and conditions set
forth in this Agreement and to any prior regulatory approval that may be needed.

Section 1. SAFETY

     (a) Clearances/Impairments. The Industry shall not permit or maintain any building,
platform, fence, gate, vehicle, or other structure, obstruction or material of any kind, closer to
the Track than the standard clearances of the Railroad without the prior written consent of the
Railroad. The standard clearances of the Railroad are
(i) horizontally, nine(9) feet from the centerline of the
Track, end (II) vertically, twenty-three (23)feet above the top of
the rail of the  Track. For any portion of
the Track that is curved, the standard horizontal clearance shall be increased one and one-half
inches for each degree of curvature. All doors, windows and gates shall be of the sliding type or
open away from the Track opening them toward the Track would impair clearance. Any moveable
appliance, including, but not limited to, dock plates and loading or unloading spouts or
equipment, that impairs the standard clearances only when in use, shall be securely stored or
fastened by the Industry when not in use so as to not impair such
clearances. If greater clearances
are required by the National Electrical Safety Code or by statute,
regulation or other competent
public authority, the Industry shall comply therewith and shall obtain any necessary public
authority and Railroad consent to impair clearances before creating an impairment. Any structure,
material or other obstruction (whether In use or not) which is closer to the Track than the
Railroad’s standard clearances or applicable public authority, whichever distance is greater, shall
be considered an impairment, whether or not consented to or permitted by the Railroad or public
authority.

     (b) Facilities. The Industry shall not construct, locate, maintain or permit the
construction or erection of any pits, loadout facilities, buildings,
private crossings, beans,
pipes, wires, or other obstructions or installations of any kind or character (hereinafter
“Facilities”) over or under the Track without the prior written consent of the Railroad.

     (c) Walkways. The Industry, at its expense, shall provide and maintain a clear and
safe pathway for Railroad employees along both sides of the Track beyond the clearance point. If
walkways are required by statute or regulation, the industry, at its expense, shall ensure that
walkways are built and maintained to conform with such statute or regulation.

     (d) Industry to Train and Oversee Employees. The Industry shall have a non-delegable
duty and responsibility to train and oversee its employees and agents as to proper and safe
working practices while performing any work in connection with this Agreement, or any work
associated with the Railroad serving the Industry over the Track.

     (e) Intraplant
Switching. The Industry shall not perform, permit or cause intraplant
switching without the prior written consent of the Railroad. Intraplant switching means the
movement of rail cars on the Track by the Industry by any method and includes the Industry’s
capacity to move rail cars, whether before, during or after any such movement.

     (f) Standards. The Industry shall comply with all applicable ordinances, regulations,
statutes, rules, decisions and orders including, but not limited to, safety, zoning, air and water
quality, noise, hazardous substances and hazardous wastes
(hereinafter “Standards”) issued by any
federal, state or local governmental body or agency (hereinafter “Authority”). If the industry is
not in full compliance with any Standards issued by any authorized Authority, the Railroad, after
notifying the industry of its noncompliance and the industry’s failure within twenty days of such
notice to correct such noncompliance, may elect to take whatever action is necessary to bring the
Track and any Railroad property into compliance with such standards; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if
industry’s failure to comply with standards interferes with,
obstructs or endangers Railroad
mainline or yard operations in anyway, Railroad may initiate compliance action immediately. The
Industry shall reinsure the Railroad for all costs (including, but not limited to, consulting,
engineering, clean-up, disposal, legal costs and attorneys, fees, fines and penalties) incurred by
the Railroad in complying with, abetting a violation of, or defending
any claim of violation of
such standards. A waiver by the Railroad of the breach by the industry of any conversant or
condition of this Agreement shall not impair the right of the Railroad to avail itself of any
remedy for subsequent breach thereof

     (g) Railcars
Containing Hazardous Materials. If the Industry uses the Track for the
purpose of shipping, receiving or storing Railcars containing hazardous materials, as defined by
the Department of Transportation (the “DOT”), the Industry will comply with and abide by all DOT
regulations as set out in 49 Code of Federal Regulations, parts 100-199, inclusive, as amended from
time to time, and provisions contained in applicable circulars of the Bureau of Explosives,
Association of American Railroads, including any and all amendments and supplements thereto. The
term “standards” defined in section 1(f) shall include (but is not limited to) regulations
referenced in this subsection (g).

     (h) Telecommunications
and Fiber Optic Cable System. Telecommunications and Fiber Optic
Cable systems may be buried on the Railroad’s property. Industry shall telephone the Railroad during
normal business hours (7.00 a.m. to 9.00 p.m., Central Time, Monday
through Friday, except
holidays) at 1-500.336-9193 (also a 24-hour, 7-day number for emergency calls) to determine if
telecommunications or fiber optic cable are buried anywhere on the Railroad’s premises to be used
by the industry. If it is, industry telephone with the telecommunication company(ies) involved,
arrange for a cable locator, and make arrangements for relocation or
other protection of the cable and will Commence no work Railroad’s property until all such protection or relocation has been
accomplished.

     (i) Fire Precautions. Industry shall not permit, place, pile, store, or stack
any flammable material within ten (10) feet of centerline of the Track. Industry shall
remove or otherwise control vegetation adjacent to the Track so that it does not
constitute a fire hazard. Industry shall ensure that suitable firefighting equipment is
available and in working order.

     (j) Notice and Flagging. Prior to entering Railroad’s right of way or
other property for the purpose of performing any maintenance,
repair, or reconstruction of the Track as set forth in this Agreement, and/or
constructing additional track segments connecting to the Track, the Industry
and/or its contractors are required to first notify the Railroad’s local Manager
of Track Maintenance at least ten (10) working days in advance of such work so
that the Railroad can determine if flagging and/or other protection is needed.
If Railroad deems that flagging and/or other protection is needed, no work of any
kind shall be performed, and no person, equipment, machinery, tool(s),
materials(s), vehicles(s), or thing(s) shall be located, operated, placed, or
stored within 25 feet of the Track or any other track of Railroad at any time,
for any reason, unless and until a Railroad flagman is provided to watch for
trains. If flagging or other special protective or safety measures are performed
by the Railroad, such services will be provided at Industry’s expense with the
understanding that if the Railroad provides any flagging or other services, the
Industry shall not be relieved of any of its responsibilities or liabilities set
forth herein. Industry shall promptly pay to Railroad all charges connected with
such services within 30 days after presentation of a bill. The rate of pay per
hour for each flagman will be the prevailing hourly rate in effect for an eight
hour day for the class of flagman used during regularly assigned hours and
overtime in accordance with Labor Agreements and Schedules in effect at the time
the work is performed. In addition to the cost of such labor, a composite charge
for vocation, holiday, health and welfare, a supplemental sickness, Railroad
Retirement and Unemployment Compensation, supplemental pension, Employer’s
Liability and Property Damage and Administration will be included, computed on
actual payroll. The composite charge will be the prevailing composite charge in
effect on the day that the flagging is provided. One and one-half times the
current hourly rate is paid for overtime, Saturdays and Sundays; two and one-half
times current hourly rate for holidays. Wage rates are subject to change at any
time, by law or by agreement between the Railroad and its employees, and may be
retroactive as a result of negotiations or a ruling of an authorized
Governmental
Agency. Additional charges on labor are also subject to change. It
the wage rate
or additional charges are changed, the Industry shall pay on the basis of the new
rates and charges. Reimbursement to the Railroad will be required covering the
full eight hour day during which any flagman is furnished, unless the flagman can
be assigned to other Railroad work during a portion of such day. In which event
reimbursement will not be required for the portion of the day during which the
flagman is engaged in other Railroad work. Reimbursement will also be required
for any day not actually worked by said flagman following the flagman assignment
to work on the project for which the Railroad is required to pay the flagman and
which could not reasonably be avoided by the Railroad by assignment of such
flagman to other work, even though the Industry and/or Industry’s contractors may
not be working during such time. When it becomes necessary for the Railroad to
bulletin and assign an employee to a flagging position in compliance with union
collective bargaining agreements, the Industry or Industry’s contractors must
provide the Railroad a minimum of five (5) days notice prior to the cessation of
the need for a flagman. If five (5) days notice of cessation is not given, the
Industry will still be required to pay flagging charges for the five (5) day
notice period required by union agreement to be given to the employee, even
though flagging is not required for the period. An additional ten (10)
days notice must then be given to the Railroad if flagging
services are needed again after such five (5) day cessation notice has been given
Railroad.
