(Non-Qualified)

          THIS AGREEMENT, made this «DATE» day of «MONTH», «YEAR», by and between Graco Inc., a
Minnesota corporation (the “Company”) and «NAME» (the “Employee”).

          WITNESSETH THAT:

          WHEREAS, the Company pursuant to the Graco Inc. 2010 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) wishes
to grant this stock option to Employee;

          NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual covenants contained in this
Agreement, the parties agree as follows:

	1.	 	Grant of Option
	 
	 	 	The Company grants to Employee, the right and option (the “Option”) to purchase all or any
part of an aggregate of «SHARES» shares of Common Stock of the Company, par value USD 1.00
per share, at the price of USD «PRICE» per share on the terms and conditions set forth in
this Agreement. The date of grant of the Option is «DATE» (the “Date of Grant”).

	 
	2.	 	Duration and Exercisability

	 	A.	 	No portion of this Option may be exercised by Employee until the first
anniversary of the Date of Grant and then only in accordance with the Vesting Schedule
set forth below. In no event shall this Option or any portion of this Option be
exercisable following the tenth anniversary of the Date of Grant.

	 
	 	 	 	Vesting Schedule

	 	 	 	 	 
	 	 	Portion of Option	 
	Vesting Date	 	Exercisable	 
	First Anniversary of Date of Grant
	 	25%	
	Second Anniversary of Date of Grant
	 	50%	
	Third Anniversary of Date of Grant
	 	75%	
	Fourth Anniversary of Date of Grant
	 	100%	

	 	 	 	If Employee does not purchase in any one year the full number of shares of Common
Stock of the Company to which he/she is entitled under this Option, he/she may,
subject to the terms and conditions of Section 3, purchase such shares of Common
Stock in any subsequent year during the term of this Option. This Option shall
expire as of the close of trading at the national securities exchange on which the
Common Stock is traded (“Exchange”) on the tenth anniversary of the Date of Grant or
if the Exchange is closed
on the anniversary date or the Common Stock of the Company is not trading on said

 

Exhibit 10.4

	 	 	 	anniversary date, such earlier business day on which the Common Stock is trading on
the Exchange.

	 
	 	B.	 	During the lifetime of Employee, the Option shall be exercisable only by
him/her and shall not be assignable or transferable by him/her otherwise than by will
or the laws of descent and distribution.

	 
	 	C.	 	Under no circumstances may the Option or any portion of the Option granted by
this Agreement be exercised after the term of the Option expires.

	3.	 	Effect of Termination of Employment

	 	A.	 	If Employee’s employment terminates for any reason other than Employee’s gross
and willful misconduct, death, retirement (as defined in Section 3D), or disability (as
defined in Section 3D), Employee shall have the right to exercise that portion of the
Option exercisable upon the date of termination of employment at any time within the
period beginning on the day after termination of employment and ending at the close of
trading on the Exchange ninety (90) days later.

	 
	 	B.	 	If Employee’s employment terminates by reason of Employee’s gross and willful
misconduct during employment, including, but not limited to, wrongful appropriation of
Company funds, serious violations of Company policy, breach of fiduciary duty or the
conviction of a felony, the unexercised portion of the Option shall terminate as of the
time of the misconduct. If the Company determines subsequent to the termination of
Employee’s employment for whatever reason, that Employee engaged in conduct during
employment that would constitute gross and willful misconduct justifying termination,
the Option shall terminate as of the time of such misconduct. Furthermore, if the
Option is exercised in whole or in part and the Company thereafter determines that
Employee engaged in gross and willful misconduct during employment which would have
justified termination at any time prior to the date of such exercise, the Option shall
be deemed to have terminated as of the time of the misconduct and the Company may elect
to rescind the Option exercise.

	 
	 	C.	 	If Employee shall die while employed by the Company or an affiliate and shall
not have fully exercised the Option, all shares remaining under the Option shall become
immediately exercisable. If Employee shall die within ninety (90) days after a
termination of employment which meets the criteria of Section 3A above, only those shares vested as of the date of termination shall be exercisable. The executor or
administrator of Employee’s estate, or any person(s) to whom the Option was transferred
by will or the applicable laws of distribution and descent may exercise such
exercisable shares at any time during a period beginning on the day after the date of
Employee’s death and ending at the close of trading on the Exchange on the tenth
anniversary of the Date of Grant.

 

Exhibit 10.4

	 	D.	 	If Employee’s termination of employment is due to retirement or disability, all shares remaining under the Option shall become immediately exercisable. Employee shall
be deemed to have retired if the termination of employment occurs for reasons other
than the Employee’s gross and willful misconduct, death, or disability after Employee
(i) has attained age 55 and 10 years of service with the Company or an affiliate, or
(ii) has attained age 65. Employee shall be deemed to be disabled if the termination
of employment occurs because Employee is unable to work due to an impairment which
would qualify as a disability under the Company’s long term disability program.
Employee may exercise the shares remaining unexercised at any time during a period
beginning on the day after the date of Employee’s termination of employment and ending
at the close of trading on the Exchange on the tenth anniversary of the Date of Grant.
If Employee should die during the period between the date of Employee’s retirement or
disability and the expiration of the Option, the executor(s) or administrator(s) of the
Employee’s estate, or any person(s) to whom the Option was transferred by will or the
applicable laws of distribution and descent may exercise the unexercised portion of the
Option at any time during a period beginning the day after the date of Employee’s death
and ending at the close of trading on the Exchange on the tenth anniversary of the Date
of Grant.
	 
	 	E.	 	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3, if the
Employee’s employment is terminated by retirement (as defined in Section 3D) and
Employee has not given the Company written notice to his/her immediate supervisor and
the Chief Executive Officer, of Employee’s intention to retire not less than six (6)
months prior to the date of his/her retirement, then in such event, for purposes of
this Agreement only, said termination of employment shall be deemed to be not a
retirement but a termination subject to the provisions of Section 3A, provided,
however, that in the event that the Chief Executive Officer determines that said
termination of employment without six (6) months prior written notice is in the best
interests of the Company, such termination shall be deemed to be a retirement and shall
be subject to Section 3D.
	 
	 	F.	 	If the Option is exercised by the executors, administrators, legatees, or
distributees of the estate of a deceased optionee, the Company shall be under no
obligation to issue stock hereunder unless and until the Company is satisfied that the
person(s) exercising the Option is the duly appointed legal representative of the
deceased optionee’s estate or the proper legatee or distributee thereof.
	 
	 	G.	 	For purposes of this Section 3, if the last day of the relevant period is a day
upon which the Exchange is not open for trading or the Common Stock is not trading on
that day, the relevant period will expire at the close of trading on such earlier
business day on which the Exchange is open and the Common Stock is trading.

	4.	 	Manner of Exercise

	 	A.	 	Employee or other proper party may exercise the Option only by delivering
within the term of the Option written notice to the Company at its principal office in
Minneapolis, Minnesota, stating the number of shares as to which the Option is being
exercised and, except as provided in Sections 4B(2) and 4C, accompanied by
payment-in-full of the Option price for all shares designated in the notice.
	 
	 	B.	 	The Employee may, at Employee’s election, pay the Option price as follows:

 

Exhibit 10.4

	 	(1)	 	by cash or check (bank check, certified check, or personal
check)
	 
	 	(2)	 	by delivering to the Company for cancellation, shares of Common
Stock of the Company which have been held by the Employee for not less than six
(6) months with a fair market value equal to the Option price.

	 	 	 	For purposes of Section 4B(2), the fair market value of the Company’s Common Stock
shall be the closing price of the Common Stock on the day immediately preceding the
date of exercise on the Exchange. If there is not a quotation available for such
day, then the closing price on the next preceding day for which such a quotation
exists shall be determinative of fair market value. If the shares are not then
traded on an exchange, the fair market value shall be the average of the closing bid
and asked prices of the Common Stock as reported by the National Association of
Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System. If the Common Stock is not then
traded on NASDAQ or on an exchange, then the fair market value shall be determined
in such manner as the Company shall deem reasonable.

	 
	 	C.	 	The Employee may, with the consent of the Company, pay the Option price by
delivering to the Company a properly executed exercise notice, together with
irrevocable instructions to a broker to promptly deliver to the Company from sale or
loan proceeds the amount required to pay the exercise price.

	5.	 	Payment of Withholding Taxes
	 
	 	 	Upon exercise of any portion of this Option, Employee shall pay to the Company an amount
sufficient to satisfy any federal, state, or local withholding tax requirements which arise
as a result of the exercise of the Option or provide the Company with satisfactory
indemnification for such payment. Employee may pay such amount by delivering to the Company
for cancellation shares of Common Stock of the Company with a fair market value equal to the
minimum amount of such withholding tax requirement by (i) electing to have the Company
withhold shares otherwise to be delivered with a fair market value equal to the minimum
statutory amount of such taxes required to be withheld by the Company, or (ii) electing to
surrender to the Company previously owned shares with a fair market value equal to the
amount of such minimum tax obligation.

	 
	6.	 	Change of Control

	 	A.	 	Notwithstanding Section 2A hereof, the entire Option shall become immediately
and fully exercisable upon a “Change of Control” and shall remain fully exercisable
until either exercised or expiring by its terms. A “Change of Control” means:

	 	(1)	 	an acquisition by any individual, entity or group (within the
meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended (the “1934 Act”)), (a “Person”), of beneficial ownership (within the
meaning of Rule 13d-3 of the 1934 Act) which, together with other acquisitions
by such Person, results in the aggregate beneficial ownership by such Person of
30% or more of either

	 	(a)	 	the then outstanding shares of Common Stock of
the Company (the “Outstanding Company Common Stock”) or

 

Exhibit 10.4

	 	(b)	 	the combined voting power of the then
outstanding voting securities of the Company entitled to vote generally
in the election of directors (the “Outstanding Company Voting
Securities”);

	 	 	 	provided, however, that the following acquisitions will not result in a
Change of Control:

	 	(i)	 	an acquisition by any employee
benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the
Company or any corporation controlled by the Company,

	 
	 	(ii)	 	an acquisition by the Employee or
any group that includes the Employee, or

	 
	 	(iii)	 	an acquisition by any entity
pursuant to a transaction that complies with clauses (a), (b)
and (c) of Section 6A(3) below; or

	 	(2)	 	Individuals who, as of the date hereof, constitute the Board of
Directors of the Company (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to
constitute at least a majority of said Board; provided, however, that any
individual becoming a director subsequent to the date hereof whose election, or
nomination for election by the Company’s shareholders, was approved by a vote
of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board
will be considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent
Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such individual whose initial
membership on the Board occurs as a result of an actual or threatened election
contest with respect to the election or removal of directors or other actual or
threatened solicitation of proxies by or on behalf of a Person other than the
Board; or

	 
	 	(3)	 	Consummation of a reorganization, merger or consolidation of
the Company with or into another entity or a statutory exchange of Outstanding
Company Common Stock or Outstanding Company Voting Securities or sale or other
disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (“Business
Combination”); excluding, however, such a Business Combination pursuant to
which

	 	(a)	 	all or substantially all of the individuals and
entities who were the beneficial owners of the Outstanding Company
Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities immediately
prior to such Business Combination beneficially own, directly or
indirectly, a majority of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of
common stock and the combined voting power of the then outstanding
voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of
directors (or comparable equity interests), as the case may be, of the
surviving or acquiring entity resulting from such Business Combination
(including, without limitation, an entity that as a result of such
transaction beneficially owns 100% of the outstanding shares of common
stock and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting
securities (or comparable equity securities) or all or substantially
all of the Company’s assets either directly or indirectly) in
substantially the same proportions (as compared to the other holders of
the Company’s common stock and voting securities prior to the Business
Combination) as their respective

 

Exhibit 10.4

	 		 	ownership, immediately prior to such Business Combination, of the
Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting
Securities,

	 
	 	(b)	 	no Person (excluding (i) any employee benefit
plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or such
entity resulting from such Business Combination or any entity
controlled by the Company or the entity resulting from such Business
Combination, (ii) any entity beneficially owning 100% of the
outstanding shares of common stock and the combined voting power of the
then outstanding voting securities (or comparable equity securities) or
all or substantially all of the Company’s assets either directly or
indirectly and (iii) the Employee and any group that includes the
Employee) beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 30% or more of the
then outstanding shares of common stock (or comparable equity
interests) of the entity resulting from such Business Combination or
the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities (or
comparable equity interests) of such entity, and

	 
	 	(c)	 	immediately after the Business Combination, a
majority of the members of the board of directors (or comparable
governors) of the entity resulting from such Business Combination were
members of the Incumbent Board at the time of the execution of the
initial agreement, or of the action of the Board, providing for such
Business Combination; or

	 	(4)	 	approval by the shareholders of the Company of a complete
liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

	7.	 	Adjustments; Fundamental Change

	 	A.	 	If there shall be any change in the number or character of the Common Stock of
the Company through merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, dividend
in the form of stock (of whatever amount), stock split or other change in the corporate
structure of the Company, and all or any portion of the Option shall then be
unexercised and not yet expired, appropriate adjustments in the outstanding Option
shall be made by the Company, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of Employee’s
Option rights. Such adjustments shall include, where appropriate, changes in the number
of shares of Common Stock and the price per share subject to the outstanding Option.

	 
	 	B.	 	In the event of a proposed (i) dissolution or liquidation of the Company, (ii)
a sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company, (iii) a merger or
consolidation of the Company with or into any other corporation, regardless of whether
the Company is the surviving corporation, or (iv) a statutory share exchange involving
the capital stock of the Company (each, a “Fundamental Change”), the Management
Organization and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”)
may, but shall not be obligated to:

	 	(1)	 	with respect to a Fundamental Change that involves a merger,
consolidation or statutory share exchange, make appropriate provision for the
protection of the Option by the substitution of options and appropriate voting
common stock of the corporation surviving any such merger or consolidation or,
if appropriate, the

 

Exhibit 10.4

	 	 	 	“parent corporation” (as defined in Section 424(e) of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended from time to time, and any regulations promulgated
thereunder, or any successor provision) of the Company or such surviving
corporation, in lieu of the Option and shares of Common Stock of the
Company, or

	 
	 	(2)	 	with respect to any Fundamental Change, including, without
limitation, a merger, consolidation or statutory share exchange, declare, prior
to the occurrence of the Fundamental Change, and provide written notice to the
holder of the Option of the declaration, that the Option, whether or not then
exercisable, shall be canceled at the time of, or immediately prior to the
occurrence of, the Fundamental Change in exchange for payment to the holder of
the Option, within 20 days after the Fundamental Change, of cash (or, if the
Committee so elects in lieu of solely cash, of such form(s) of consideration,
including cash and/or property, singly or in such combination as the Committee
shall determine, that the holder of the Option would have received as a result
of the Fundamental Change if the holder of the Option had exercised the Option
immediately prior to the Fundamental Change) equal to, for each share of Common
Stock covered by the canceled Option, the amount, if any, by which the Fair
Market Value (as defined in this Section 7B) per share of Common Stock exceeds
the exercise price per share of Common Stock covered by the Option. At the
time of the declaration provided for in the immediately preceding sentence, the
Option shall immediately become exercisable in full and the holder of the
Option shall have the right, during the period preceding the time of
cancellation of the Option, to exercise the Option as to all or any part of the shares of Common Stock covered thereby in whole or in part, as the case may be.
In the event of a declaration pursuant to this Section 7B, the Option, to the
extent that it shall not have been exercised prior to the Fundamental Change,
shall be canceled at the time of, or immediately prior to, the Fundamental
Change, as provided in the declaration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
holder of the Option shall not be entitled to the payment provided for in this
Section 7B if such Option shall have expired or been forfeited. For purposes
of this Section 7B only, “Fair Market Value” per share of Common Stock means
the fair market value, as determined in good faith by the Committee, of the
consideration to be received per share of Common Stock by the shareholders of
the Company upon the occurrence of the Fundamental Change, notwithstanding
anything to the contrary provided in this Agreement.

	8.	 	Miscellaneous

	 	A.	 	This Option is issued pursuant to the Plan and is subject to its terms. The
terms of the Plan are available for inspection during business hours at the principal
offices of the Company.

	 
	 	B.	 	This Agreement shall not create an employment relationship between Employee and
the Company and shall not confer on Employee any right with respect to continuance of
employment by the Company or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries, nor will it
interfere in any way with the right of the Company to terminate such employment at any
time.

	 
	 	C.	 	Neither Employee, the Employee’s legal representative, nor the executor(s) or
administrator(s) of the Employee’s estate, or any person(s) to whom the Option was

 

Exhibit 10.4

	 	 	 	transferred by will or the applicable laws of distribution and descent shall be, or
have any of the rights or privileges of, a shareholder of the Company in respect of
any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Option, in whole or
in part, unless and until such shares shall have been issued upon exercise of this
Option.

	 
	 	D.	 	This option has been granted to Employee as a purely discretionary benefit and
shall not form part of Employee’s salary or entitle Employee to receive similar option
grants in the future. Benefits received under the Plan shall not be used in
calculating severance payments, if any.

	 
	 	E.	 	The Company shall at all times during the term of the Option reserve and keep
available such number of shares as will be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of
this Agreement.

	 
	 	F.	 	The internal law, and not the law of conflicts, of the State of Minnesota, USA,
shall govern all questions concerning the validity, construction and effect of this
Agreement, the Plan and any rules and regulations relating to the Plan or this Option

	 
	 	G.	 	Employee hereby consents to the transfer by his/her employer or the Company of
information relating to his/her participation in the Plan, including the personal data
set forth in this Agreement, between them or to other related parties in the United
States or elsewhere, or to any financial institution or other third party engaged by
the Company, but solely for the purpose of administering the Plan and this Option.
Employee also consents to the storage and processing of such data by such persons for
this purpose.

          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Agreement to be executed on the day and year
first above written.

Execution Version

SUPPLY AGREEMENT 

     This Supply Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made as of this 14th day of
March, 2011 (the “Effective Date”), by and between GATX Corporation, a corporation
organized under the laws of the State of New York (“Buyer”), and Trinity Rail Group, LLC, a
limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (“Seller”)
(collectively, the “Parties” and individually, a “Party”).

     In consideration of the mutual promises contained herein and other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Seller and Buyer agree
as follows:

	1.	 	TERM. Except to the extent sooner terminated pursuant to the terms hereof, the term of
this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and end on the fifth (5th)
anniversary date of the Effective Date; provided, that if Seller has not Delivered
(as hereinafter defined) all of the Railcars (as hereinafter defined) ordered by Buyer
hereunder on or before such end date, this Agreement shall expire on the date the last
Railcar is Delivered (the “Term”).
	 
	2.	 	PURCHASE COMMITMENT AND QUANTITY. Buyer hereby commits to purchase during the Term a total
of twelve thousand five hundred (12,500) Railcars (the “Base Order Quantity”) and to
submit to Seller, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Buyer’s purchase orders to fulfill
such commitment. Seller agrees to manufacture, sell and Deliver to Buyer during the Term the
12,500 Railcars as ordered by Buyer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, Buyer shall not be required to purchase, and Seller shall not be required to
manufacture, sell and Deliver, any Railcars in excess of the Base Order Quantity under the
terms of this Agreement.
	 
	3.	 	RAILCARS AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE.

	 	3.1.	 	Except to the extent later removed from Exhibits A, B or C pursuant to
Section 3.5, Seller shall make available for sale, and Buyer shall purchase, Railcars
consisting of one or more of (i) the types of Railcar listed in Exhibits A, B, and C
(the “Railcar Types”) as of the Effective Date; (ii) the Modified Railcars
(including those Railcars and Railcar Types treated as a Modified Railcar under
Section 3.4); and (iii) those railcars and railcar types, if any, that are added to
Exhibits A, B, or C after the Effective Date in accordance with Sections 3.3 or 3.4,
or by mutual written agreement of the Parties (collectively, “Railcars” and
individually, a “Railcar”). For the avoidance of doubt, each unit within an
articulated or drawbar-coupled string of railcars shall be considered a single Railcar
for all purposes hereunder.

 

 

	3.2.	 	Buyer may purchase from Seller hereunder, Railcar Types (i) that, on or after
the Effective Date, [*****]1 (each of the foregoing described in clauses
(i) and (ii) above, individually, a “Modified Railcar” and collectively,
“Modified Railcars”), and Exhibit A, B, and/or C, respectively, shall be
amended without further action by the Parties to include each such Modified Railcar.
	 
	3.3.	 	Buyer may not purchase “Excluded Railcars” as defined in this Section
3.3. “Excluded Railcars” are (i) railcars or railcar types that are not listed on
Exhibits A, B, or C; (ii) railcars and railcar types [*****] (each of the foregoing
described in clause (ii) above, individually, a “Developed Railcar” and
collectively, “Developed Railcars”); [*****].
	 
	 	 	[*****] then, in any such case, such Excluded Railcar shall thereafter constitute a
Railcar which Buyer may purchase from Seller and Exhibit C shall be amended without
further action by the Parties to include such Excluded Railcar (except, in the case
of clause (y) above, to the extent prohibited under a written agreement between
Seller and the Third Party that had previously been the exclusive purchaser of such
Excluded Railcar).
	 
	3.4.	 	If a Railcar and/or Railcar Type meet the definition of a Developed Railcar
set out in Section 3.3 as well as the definition of a Modified Railcar set out in
Section 3.2, the Railcar shall be a Developed Railcar for all purposes under this
Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Railcars and the Railcar Types
shall include, and Buyer may purchase from Seller hereunder, a railcar and railcar
type [*****], in which case, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, such Railcar
shall be treated as a Modified Railcar in all respects except that Exhibit A shall be
amended without further action by the Parties to include such Railcar as a
“Specialized Car I” in such Exhibit.
	 
	3.5.	 	Once a Railcar is included on Exhibit A, B or C, Buyer may submit an Order
for such Railcar from Seller hereunder until such time that the Parties mutually agree
to remove such Railcar from such Exhibit.
	 
	3.6.	 	For purposes of this Agreement:

	 	3.6.1.	 	“Third Party” shall mean any Person that is not a (i) Party to this
Agreement or (ii) an Affiliate (as hereinafter defined) of a Party to this

of a Person, whether through the ownership of at least 51% of the voting
securities, by contract or otherwise; and

	6.	 	SELLER’S STANDARD MANUFACTURING COST.

	 	6.1.	 	Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all calculations of Seller’s
Standard Manufacturing Cost (as defined below) shall conform to and be made using
Seller’s Cost Accounting Policy and Procedure, dated and current as of the Effective
Date and initialed by the Parties (“Seller’s Costing Policy”).

	 	6.1.1.	 	Seller may modify Seller’s Costing Policy to the extent necessary to comply with
any changes in U.S. generally accepted accounting procedures (GAAP), international
financial reporting standards (IFRS) or other applicable accounting regulatory
mandates.
	 
	 	6.1.2.	 	[*****].3
	 
	 	6.1.3.	 	Following any modifications to Seller’s Costing Policy pursuant to Section
6.1.1, [*****], Seller shall promptly provide an updated copy (which shall
indicate the date of most recent revision) of Seller’s Costing Policy to Buyer,
which shall be initialed by the Parties and replace the prior version of Seller’s

Parties.
	 
	 	6.1.4.	 	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Seller’s Costing Policy,
in the event of any conflicts between this Agreement and the Seller’s Costing
Policy, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

	9.	 	ORDERS.

	 	9.1.	 	Annual Order Quantity and Monthly Order Quantity. “Order Year” means
from March 14, 2011 through March 13, 2012 for the first Order Year, and thereafter
each following period of twelve (12) consecutive months. Buyer shall order 2,500
Railcars per Order Year (“Annual Order Quantity”) until the Base Order Quantity
is reached. Of those 2,500 Railcars, Buyer shall order [*****] per month from Exhibit
A (“Monthly Order Quantity”) of each Order Year for a total of [*****] per
Order Year (“Scheduled Cars”), in each case until the Base Order Quantity is
reached. The Parties agree that out of the Annual Order Quantity, [*****] Railcars can
be a mix of either tank cars or freight cars from Exhibits A, B, and C
(“Unscheduled Cars”).
	 
	 	9.2.	 	Production Slot Allocation for Scheduled Cars. Seller shall schedule car
production slots in each month of an Order Year to produce the Monthly Order Quantity,
for a total of [*****] production slots for Scheduled Cars in each Order Year
(“Allocated Production Slots”). Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to
the contrary contained in this Agreement, Seller will have no obligation to schedule
more than [*****] Allocated Production Slots in any one month during the Term. For the
avoidance of doubt, accepted Orders for Unscheduled Cars are not eligible for Allocated
Production Slots and shall not impact the scheduling or Delivery of Scheduled Cars in
accordance with Section 9.6.1.
	 
	 	9.3.	 	Unscheduled Cars. Buyer’s Order(s) accepted by Seller’s Order Confirmation for
Unscheduled Cars will be placed in the next available production slot in Seller’s then
current backlog. Buyer’s obligation to order the [*****] per Order Year is firm and
the duration of Seller’s railcar backlog and the effect such backlog has on Delivery of
Unscheduled Cars shall not permit Buyer to avoid placing its required Order per Order
Year for Unscheduled Cars. [*****].
	 
	 	9.4.	 	Monthly Price Lists; Pricing Proposals. At the beginning of each Order Year,
Seller and Buyer shall mutually agree to a list totaling [*****] Railcars from Exhibits
A, B and C for which Seller shall provide Buyer with monthly updates, as to Exhibit A
Railcars, to Buyer’s Estimated Base Sales Price(s), and as to Exhibit B and C Railcars,
to the [*****] for such Railcars under then-current market conditions, during the Order
Year (the “Monthly Price List”). In the event a Railcar is not listed on the
Monthly Price List, upon Buyer’s written request, Seller shall provide Buyer with a
written pricing proposal for the requested Railcars within ten (10) business days
following such request, which pricing proposal shall be consistent with the terms of
this Agreement.
	 
	 	9.5.	 	Order Form. Each order submitted by Buyer shall be in the form set forth on
Exhibit E attached hereto and shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (“Order”). Each Order shall specify (i) the Railcar Type; (ii)
the quantity of Railcars for each Railcar Type; (iii) any Alternates for the
Railcars ordered; (iv) any new Buyer-Supplied Components that Buyer will be
providing;

6

 

	 	(v)	 	any non-new Buyer-Supplied Components that Buyer will be providing; and (vi) the
price agreed upon by the Parties pursuant to Section 5.2.1 for the Railcar(s)
ordered. Subject to Seller’s rights of rejection under Section 9.7, upon Seller’s
reasonable written request, Buyer will correct any Order that does not conform to
the form set forth on Exhibit E.
	 
	 	9.6.	 	Order Placement.

	 	9.6.1.	 	Orders for Scheduled Cars must be placed by Buyer [*****]5
(collectively, “Scheduled Car Lead Times”) prior to their Allocated
Production Slots by delivering each such Order per the instructions on the
Order form. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, such Orders for Scheduled
Cars shall be (i) filled in the order in which they were placed, and (ii)
Delivered by Seller within the final month of the applicable Scheduled Car Lead
Times. Seller shall Deliver at least [*****]. If Buyer fails to place one or
more Orders for all or any portion of the Scheduled Cars within the Scheduled
Car Lead Times, Seller shall place the Order(s) for Buyer consistent with
Buyer’s default instructions for orders of Scheduled Cars (“Default
Scheduled Car Order Instructions”) set forth on Exhibit K hereto; which
Exhibit shall identify specific Railcar(s). Subject to Section 9.7 (unless
otherwise agreed by the Parties), Buyer may update the Default Scheduled Car
Order Instructions at any time by delivery of written notice to Seller,
provided each such update identifies specific Railcars, in which case Exhibit K
shall be amended without further action by the Parties to include such updated
Default Scheduled Car Order Instructions in Exhibit K and such update shall be
effective for all Orders following each such update.
	 
	 	9.6.2.	 	Orders for Unscheduled Cars will be placed by Buyer from time to time by
delivering each such Order per the instructions on the Order form. In
accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 9.6.3, such Unscheduled
Cars shall be added to Seller’s next available production slots and added to
Buyer’s Delivery Schedule. If Buyer fails to place one or more Orders for all
or any portion of the Order Year Unscheduled Cars requirement by the first day
of the last month of an Order Year, Seller shall place the Order for Buyer with
Buyer’s default instructions for orders of Unscheduled Cars (“Default
Unscheduled Car Order Instructions”) set forth on Exhibit K hereto; which
Exhibit shall identify specific Railcar(s), and unless otherwise agreed by the
Parties, shall consist of Railcar(s) from Exhibit A only. Subject to Section
9.7 (unless otherwise agreed by the Parties), Buyer may update the Default Unscheduled Car Order Instructions at
any time by delivery of written notice to Seller, provided each such update
identifies specific Railcar(s), in which case Exhibit K

been omitted and filed separately with the Commission. Confidential treatment
has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.

7

 

	 	 	 	shall be amended without further action by the Parties to include such
updated Default Unscheduled Car Order Instructions in Exhibit K and such
update shall be effective for all Orders following each such update.
	 
	 	9.6.3.	 	Within five (5) business days after Seller’s receipt of an Order, and
provided Seller has not rejected the Order pursuant to Section 9.7, Seller
shall provide Buyer with an order confirmation, substantially in the form of
Exhibit L and in accordance with the terms hereof, confirming (i) the Seller’s
Order Confirmation Price for Railcars on Exhibits A, B, or C and (ii) the month
the Railcars will commence Delivery (the “Seller’s Order
Confirmation”). Within ten (10) business days of Seller’s issuance of an
Order Confirmation, Seller shall add Buyer’s Order to the Buyer Delivery
schedule (the “Buyer’s Delivery Schedule”) indicating the quantity of
Railcars to be Delivered each month (the “Committed Delivery Month”), a
copy of which shall be promptly provided to Buyer. Within sixty (60) days of
the first Railcar Delivery in a Committed Delivery Month, Seller shall update
Buyer’s Delivery Schedule to reflect the week in which such Railcar will be
Delivered (the “Committed Delivery Date”), a copy of which update shall
be promptly provided to Buyer. Any change to Buyer’s Delivery Schedule shall
require the written agreement of both Buyer and Seller.
	 
	 	9.6.4.	 	Each Order for Railcars that (i) complies with this Section 9, (ii) has been
delivered to Seller in accordance with this Section 9, and (iii) which has not
been rejected by Seller within five (5) business days of its placement pursuant
to Section 9.7, shall be deemed to have been accepted by Seller and shall
represent a firm commitment by Seller to manufacture, sell, and Deliver, and
for Buyer to purchase and take Delivery of, the Railcars specified in such
Order in accordance herewith, regardless of whether Seller has complied with
its obligation to return a signed Order Confirmation to Buyer in the time
specified under Section 9.6.3.
	 
	 	9.6.5.	 	If any term or condition in Buyer’s Order, Seller’s Order Confirmation, or
other documentation by or from either Party relating to the subject matter of
the Order or of this Agreement (i) conflicts with a term or condition of this
Agreement or (ii) except to the extent the Parties mutually agree in writing,
adds to or supplements the terms of this Agreement, and in either case the
terms or conditions of this Agreement shall control and the conflicting term or
condition, or the additional or supplemental term or condition, as the case may
be, shall be without force or effect with respect to such subject matter or
Order.

	 	9.7.	 	Seller Order Rejection. In the event that Seller does not have a production
line operating to produce Unscheduled Railcars on Exhibits B or C ordered by Buyer,
Seller shall notify Buyer within five (5) business days following receipt of such Order
that it cannot manufacture such Railcars, in which case Buyer shall place its

8

 

	 	 	 	Order for different Railcars to replace such Railcars that Seller cannot
manufacture. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Seller
shall ensure that, during the Term of this Agreement, [*****].6
	 
	 	9.8.	 	Change Order. Once a Seller’s Order Confirmation has been issued to Buyer,
Buyer may request in writing a change in an Order specifying the particular Railcars
that are subject to Buyer’s request and the requested change. Within ten (10) business
days following receipt of such request, Seller shall provide Buyer with a Change Order
quote (“Change Order Quote”) comprised of (i) any change to the Buyer’s
Delivery Schedule and (ii) any price adjustment for the Change Order Request. If Buyer
accepts Seller’s Change Order Quote, Buyer shall issue a confirming change Order
(“Change Order”) to Seller within five (5) business days after receipt of the
Change Order Quote. If Seller does not receive a timely Change Order from Buyer
accepting Seller’s Change Order Quote, Buyer’s Order will not be modified, and the
affected Railcars shall be built in accordance with the original Specification and
subject to the original Seller Order Confirmation Price.
	 
	 	9.9.	 	Regulation-Mandated Changes. Seller will promptly notify Buyer of any changes
or additions to the Seller Specification mandated by changes in the Regulations. Any
such changes or additions to the Specification that arise between the date of the
Seller’s Order Confirmation for a Railcar and the date of Delivery for such Railcar
shall be treated as a Change Order in accordance with the procedures set forth in
Section 9.8.
	 
	 	9.10.	 	Lead Time Estimates. Upon Buyer’s reasonable written request, Seller shall
provide Buyer with its then-current estimate of the next available delivery dates for a
Railcar Type as of the date of such request.
	 
	 	9.11.	 	Initial Order. Within five (5) business days following the Effective Date,
Buyer may submit an initial Order or Orders for a total of [*****] Railcars (the
“Initial Order(s)”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, with respect to the Initial Order(s), the Parties agree that [*****]. Except
as otherwise provided in this Section 9.11, all other terms and conditions of this
Agreement shall apply to the Initial Order(s) and the Railcars Ordered thereunder.

	10.	 	DELIVERY AND SHIPMENT.

	 	10.1.	 	Delivery and Title.

	 	10.1.1.	 	Unless otherwise agreed to in writing and signed by both Seller and Buyer,
“Delivery” (including the terms “Deliver” and “Delivered”)
of the Railcars shall be defined as (i) in the case of Railcars manufactured in
the United States, actual delivery of such Railcars, F.O.B. Seller’s plant or (ii)

	 	 	 	case of Railcars manufactured in Mexico, actual delivery of such Railcars,
F.O.B. site on the United States side of the border at a site to be mutually
agreed between Buyer and Seller or, if no agreement has been reached by the
time such Railcar is ready for Delivery, at a site on the United States side of
the border determined by Seller. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing and
signed by both Seller and Buyer, Buyer agrees to Delivery of all or any number
of the Railcars as they are accepted pursuant to Section 11.1.
	 
	 	10.1.2.	 	Subject to Section 10.1.3 below, exclusive ownership, rights of possession and
control, and risk of loss to each Railcar manufactured by Seller, whether in the
United States or Mexico, will pass to Buyer at the time of Delivery of such
Railcar.
	 
	 	10.1.3.	 	Unless otherwise agreed to in writing and signed by both Seller and Buyer, with
respect to Railcars manufactured in Mexico, the acceptance of such Railcars
pursuant to Section 11.1 (i) represents Buyer’s authorization for Seller to ship
such Railcars to Buyer for Delivery, and (ii) shall not transfer title or risk of
loss of such Railcars until they have been Delivered by Seller to Buyer at the
F.O.B. site on the United States side of the border set forth in Section 10.1.1
above.

	 	10.2.	 	After Delivery of a Railcar to Buyer as provided in Section 10.1, at Buyer’s
written request, Seller will ship such finished Railcar to Buyer or Buyer’s customer at
the place designated by Buyer to Seller and any resulting freight charges shall be for
Buyer’s account. Such freight charges may appear as a line item on Seller’s invoice
for the Railcars if Seller pays such freight charges for Buyer’s account.
	 
	 	10.3.	 	[*****].7
	 
	 	10.4.	 	Force Majeure Events.

	 	10.4.1.	 	Seller shall not be liable for any delay or failure to perform in whole or in
part caused by “Force Majeure Events” which adversely impact the
performance of Seller’s obligations regardless of when occurring, including, but
not limited to, restrictions or Regulations imposed by the federal or any state
government or any subdivision or agency thereof or by acts of God; acts of Buyer,
its officers, directors, employees, agents or contractors, including, but not
limited to, Buyer’s failure to provide in a timely manner any parts, Components, equipment or labor, including plans, drawings or engineers, which
it has agreed to supply; war, preparation for war or the acts or interventions
of naval or military executives or other agencies of government; acts of
terrorists; blockade, sabotage, vandalism, malicious

	 	 	 	mischief, bomb scares, insurrection or threats thereof; rain that requires
a shutdown of a substantial portion of Seller’s facility where the Railcars are
being manufactured and/or the painting/coating area of such facility prior to
12:00 noon (local time) on a regularly scheduled work day; landslides,
hurricanes, earthquakes or other natural calamity; delays of subcontractors or
of carriers by land, sea or air; delays due to changes in drawings or
Specification; collisions or fires, floods, strikes, work stoppages, shortage
of labor, lockouts or other industrial disturbances, accidents, casualties,
shortages or late delivery of supplies (including, without limitation, fuel
supplies) or raw materials (including, without limitation, steel) from usual
sources at customary pricing, or other causes beyond Seller’s reasonable
control.
	 
	 	10.4.2.	 	In the event of any Force Majeure Event, the Parties agree the date of Delivery
or performance shall be extended for a period equal to the time lost by reason of
the delay; provided, however, that if the period of delay exceeds one hundred
eighty (180) days from the original Committed Delivery Date, Buyer may cancel the
Delivery of such Railcar subject to the delay due to the Force Majeure Event. Any
cancelled Railcar shall be treated as having been validly ordered for the purposes
of Buyer’s obligations hereunder with respect to the Base Order Quantity required
under Section 2 and the applicable Annual Order Quantity and/or Monthly Order
Quantity required under Section 9.1. If delivery of any items necessary for the
Delivery of such Railcars is delayed by Buyer for more than thirty (30) days,
Seller may adjust the Invoice Price payable hereunder to reflect the direct
damages attributable to such delay (e.g., increases in cost of supplies, shipping
and the like), but not to include indirect or consequential damages. Nothing
hereunder shall require Seller to arrange for shipment and acceptance of any
required materials in advance of Seller’s actual needs. In the event that the
occurrence of a Force Majeure Event affects a Party’s performance of its
obligations hereunder for more than 240 consecutive days, the other Party may
terminate this Agreement thereafter upon 30 days advance written notice.

	11.	 	QUALITY OF RAILCARS.

	 	11.1.	 	Inspection and Acceptance. In the case of Railcars, Seller shall give Buyer
reasonable access to Seller’s manufacturing facilities to inspect the Railcars during
construction. Such inspections shall be so conducted as to not interfere unreasonably
with Seller’s operations. Acceptance or rejection of a Railcar shall be made by Buyer
before shipment of the Railcars manufactured in Mexico and before Delivery of Railcars
manufactured in the United States. In the event Buyer chooses to inspect the Railcars,
upon completion of such inspection, Buyer shall execute a certificate of acceptance covering all Railcars found to be completed in
accordance with the Specification and shall deliver the executed certificates of
acceptance to Seller (each, a “Certificate of Acceptance”). Each
Certificate of

11

 

	 	 	 	Acceptance, with respect to Railcars covered thereby, shall indicate that,
based upon such inspection, such Railcars conform in workmanship, material and
construction, and in all other respects, to the applicable Specification and the
requirements and provisions of the applicable Order. If Buyer, upon receiving
notice of when the Railcars will be ready for inspection and provided that such
Railcars are available for inspection, chooses not to have an inspector present
within three (3) business days after the date that the notice states that the
Railcars shall be ready for inspection or Buyer’s inspector fails to inspect the
Railcars within three (3) business days after the date that the notice states the
Railcars will be ready for inspection, Buyer shall be deemed to have accepted the
applicable Railcars at the close of business on the day that is three (3) business
days after the date that such Railcars were ready for inspection and Seller will
execute, on behalf of Buyer, a Certificate of Acceptance dated as of the day that is
three (3) business days after the date that such Railcars were ready for inspection.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller may ship Railcars at any time upon Buyer’s
notification to Seller that it will not inspect Railcars for which Seller has
provided notice that Railcars are available for inspection. The execution of a
Certificate of Acceptance shall not relieve the Seller of any of its obligations
under the Agreement nor shall it constitute a waiver by the Buyer with respect to
any defect or deficiency of workmanship, materials, construction or other deviation
from the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Once a Certificate of Acceptance
with respect to a Railcar has been executed, Buyer shall have no rights of
inspection under this Section 11.1, nor any rights of rejection and cancellation
under Section 11.2 with respect to such Railcar.
	 
	 	11.2.	 	[*****].8
	 
	 	11.3.	 	Premises Liability Indemnification. BUYER AGREES TO DEFEND, HOLD HARMLESS AND
INDEMNIFY SELLER AND ITS AFFILIATES, SUBSIDIARIES, RELATED ENTITIES, OFFICERS,
DIRECTORS, SHAREHOLDERS, AGENTS AND EMPLOYEES (COLLECTIVELY REFERRED TO AS THE
“SELLER INDEMNITEES”), FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL CAUSES OF ACTION, SUITS,
DEBTS, CLAIMS, LIABILITIES, LOSSES, BODILY INJURIES OR DEATH, DAMAGE TO REAL OR
PERSONAL PROPERTY (INCLUDING THE LOSS OR USE THEREOF), JUDGMENTS, COSTS, INCLUDING, BUT
NOT LIMITED TO, ACTUAL, INCIDENTAL AND COVER DAMAGES, ATTORNEYS’ FEES, COURT COSTS AND EXPENSES OF WHATEVER NATURE OR KIND, IN LAW OR IN
EQUITY, INCURRED IN THE DEFENSE OF THE SELLER INDEMNITEES OR OTHERWISE, TO THE
EXTENT ARISING OUT OF, OR RESULTING FROM ANY ACT, ERROR, OMISSION, NEGLIGENCE OR

	12.	 	PAYMENT AND CLOSING.

	 	12.1.	 	Payment of Purchase Price and Closing of Sale. On or before ten (10) business
days following Buyer’s receipt of (i) the shipping report for a Railcar, including the
lightweight of each Railcar shipped and each Railcar’s assigned number, (ii) a
Certificate of Acceptance executed by Buyer’s inspector, or the acceptance of any such
Railcar has been deemed pursuant to Section 11.1 hereof, (iii) Seller’s invoice for
such Railcar(s) with the Invoice Price broken down to detail the components thereof, if
applicable, and substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit M hereof, and (iv)
Seller’s executed Bill of Sale substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H,
Buyer shall pay the Invoice Price for each Railcar manufactured and Delivered by Seller
and accepted by Buyer via wire transfer to Seller (pursuant to such wire transfer
instructions as Seller shall provide to Buyer in advance of the due date for such
amounts).
	 
	 	12.2.	 	Taxes. Buyer is solely responsible for all international, federal, state, or
local VAT, GST, sales, use, or other taxes, tariffs, duties, or charges imposed by any
governmental authority or agency, foreign or domestic, upon any Railcar purchased and
sold hereunder or upon the manufacture, sale, transportation, use, or Delivery thereof
(collectively, “Taxes”); provided, however, that Taxes shall
not include any Seller property taxes or taxes based on Seller’s income. While it is
the intent of the Parties that Seller’s invoice for Railcars will include a line item
for Taxes, in the event an amount for applicable Taxes is not included in Seller’s
invoice for Buyer’s account, Buyer shall remain solely responsible for the payment of
such Taxes. For the avoidance of doubt, no Taxes shall be included in Seller’s
Standard Manufacturing Cost for such Railcar. Seller shall provide receipts to Buyer
evidencing Seller’s payment of any such Taxes.
	 
	 	12.3.	 	Late Payments. Other than with respect to amounts disputed up to a maximum of
$[*****]9 of unpaid disputed amounts, if any payment is not received by a
Party on the due date for such payment, and such failure continues for five (5) days
after such due date, such Party shall charge the other Party interest on any unpaid
balance at the prime rate per annum in effect on such due date at Bank of America,
Illinois, plus [*****] percent ([*****]%) or the highest rate permitted by law, whichever is lower, from the date such payment was due through and including
the date on which actual payment in full is made by such other Party.

	13.	 	MANUFACTURING WARRANTIES AND DISCLAIMERS; IP INDEMNITY

	 	13.1.	 	Manufacturing Warranties.

	 	13.1.1.	 	Seller warrants solely to Buyer that the assembly, construction and manufacture
of the Railcars by Seller, Seller’s employees and Seller’s subcontractors will be
in accordance with the Specification and Regulations (as defined in Section
13.1.8) for a period of [*****] after Delivery of the applicable Railcars, and
that the material and workmanship of the Railcars furnished by Seller, Seller’s
employees and Seller’s subcontractors will be free from defects under normal use
and service for the [*****] warranty period. This warranty shall not apply to,
and Seller shall not be responsible for, any failure of any Railcar purchased
hereunder which has been subjected to misuse, negligence, alteration, accident,
misloading, mishandling, improper or deficient maintenance, or physical abuse.
Further, this warranty by Seller shall not apply to, and Seller shall not be
responsible for, the deterioration of any Railcar purchased hereunder which
results from normal wear and tear during the [*****] warranty period. Seller’s
only obligation to Buyer under this Section 13.1.1 is limited to promptly
repairing or replacing, at Seller’s exclusive option, the material and workmanship
of the Railcar that is not in conformity with this warranty. Transportation
charges and charges associated with the removal of any commodity shall be prepaid
by Buyer. Seller shall determine, in its sole discretion, the place where any
defective Railcar will be replaced or repaired. Seller shall not be required to
repair or replace any defective Railcar, however, unless Buyer first provides the
defective Railcar to Seller for an examination by Seller within sixty (60) days of
Buyer’s written notice of a potential defect and Seller’s examination of the part
or parts confirms the existence of a warranted defect. [*****].
	 
	 	13.1.2.	 	With respect to interior and exterior primers, paints, coatings, linings,
and/or sealants (the “Coatings”), Seller warrants that it will apply the
Coatings selected by Buyer in accordance with the Coating manufacturer’s
specifications and recommendations, and, except as set forth in this Section
13.1.2, Seller makes no other warranty, express or implied, with respect to the
Coatings or the adequacy of such Coating manufacturer’s specifications and
recommendations. Seller may offer various choices of Coatings at various prices
and of various qualities. The Coatings actually applied by Seller shall be chosen
by Buyer at Buyer’s sole discretion, subject to Seller’s agreement to apply such
Coatings, based on, but not limited to, Seller’s ability to obtain and apply such
Coatings. Buyer’s choice of Coatings is made at Buyer’s sole risk and, except as
set forth below in this Section 13.1.2, Seller makes no warranty, express or
implied, regarding the suitability or effectiveness of any Coatings. With respect to the Coatings,
Seller’s sole obligation under this Section 13.1.2 is limited to repair or
replacement, at the election of Seller, at Seller’s railcar repair shop or at a
shop selected by Seller, of the Coatings installed by Seller in any Railcar
that

	 	 	 	shall, within [*****]10 after Delivery be returned to Seller with
transportation charges and charges associated with the removal of any commodity
prepaid by Buyer; provided, however, that Buyer provides such Railcar for an
examination by Seller within sixty (60) days of written notification by Buyer
of a potential defective installation of Coatings and such an examination
confirms that the Coatings were defectively installed by Seller. [*****].
	 
	 	13.1.3.	 	In the event that Buyer sells, leases, or otherwise assigns the Railcars, any
such transaction shall not otherwise modify or terminate Seller’s warranty.
	 
	 	13.1.4.	 	In no event and under no circumstances shall Seller ever be liable to Buyer for
a breach of the warranty set forth herein in any amount greater than Seller’s
actual cost of repairing or replacing the defective Railcar that Buyer purchased
from Seller. Under no circumstances shall Seller ever have liability to any Third
Party who asserts any claim by or through Buyer alleging a breach of the warranty
expressly set forth herein, which Seller makes solely and exclusively to Buyer.
Any repair or replacement by Seller pursuant to this warranty will not serve to
extend the warranty in any way beyond [*****] from the date the Railcar is
Delivered to Buyer.
	 
	 	13.1.5.	 	SELLER MAKES NO EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY THAT ANY PARTS, MATERIAL, EQUIPMENT
OR COMPONENTS PURCHASED FROM THIRD PARTY SUPPLIERS OR MANUFACTURERS (HEREINAFTER,
EACH A “SUPPLIER OR MANUFACTURER”) AND INSTALLED IN OR ON THE RAILCARS ARE
FREE FROM DEFECTS. ANY PARTS, MATERIAL, EQUIPMENT OR COMPONENTS PURCHASED FROM
SUPPLIERS OR MANUFACTURERS AND INSTALLED IN OR ON THE RAILCARS WILL BE COVERED
UNDER THE WARRANTY GIVEN BY THE SPECIFIC SUPPLIER OR MANUFACTURER AND THE TERMS
SET FORTH THEREIN. SELLER AGREES TO COOPERATE WITH BUYER TO ENFORCE ANY SUCH
SUPPLIER OR MANUFACTURER WARRANTIES, BUT WILL NOT FILE ANY LAWSUIT OR INSTITUTE
OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDING ON BUYER’S BEHALF AND/OR INCUR OTHER LEGAL FEES, COSTS OR
EXPENSES. TO THE EXTENT EXPRESSLY PERMITTED BY ANY SUCH SUPPLIER OR MANUFACTURER,
SELLER AGREES TO TRANSFER AND ASSIGN TO BUYER, WITHOUT WARRANTY OR ASSUMPTION BY
SELLER WITH RESPECT THEREOF, SUCH SUPPLIER’S OR MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTIES COVERING
PARTS, MATERIAL, EQUIPMENT OR COMPONENTS FURNISHED BY SUCH SUPPLIER OR MANUFACTURER. AS TO SELLER’S INSTALLATION OF PARTS,

BEEN COMPLETED BY SELLER IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH SUPPLIER’S OR MANUFACTURER’S
RECOMMENDATIONS IN A GOOD AND WORKMANLIKE MANNER AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT.
	 
	 	13.1.6.	 	SELLER DOES NOT WARRANT ANY COMPONENTS, EQUIPMENT, ENGINEERING, DESIGNS, PLANS
OR WORKMANSHIP SPECIFIED OR FURNISHED BY BUYER, BUYER’S SUBCONTRACTORS, EMPLOYEES,
ARCHITECTS OR ENGINEERS, OR ANY LABOR PERFORMED BY OTHERS AT THE DIRECTION OR
REQUEST OF BUYER OR BUYER’S REPRESENTATIVE(S) AND SELLER SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS
ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IN CONNECTION THEREWITH.
	 
	 	13.1.7.	 	THE WARRANTIES STATED HEREIN ARE EXCLUSIVE AND ARE MADE BY SELLER SOLELY TO
BUYER EXPRESSLY IN LIEU OF ANY AND ALL OTHER WARRANTIES AND REMEDIES: (1) EXPRESS
OR IMPLIED; (2) WRITTEN OR ORAL; (3) AT LAW, IN EQUITY OR UNDER CONTRACT,
INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE; AND (4) NOTWITHSTANDING ANY COURSE OF DEALING BETWEEN
THE PARTIES OR CUSTOM AND USAGE IN THE TRADE TO THE CONTRARY. OTHER THAN AS
EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN SECTION 13.1.1, SELLER SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY TO BUYER AND
BUYER SHALL NOT MAKE ANY CLAIM AGAINST SELLER OR RECOVER ANY AMOUNT WHATSOEVER
FROM SELLER FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, COVER, OR
PUNITIVE DAMAGES THAT ARISE OUT OF OR RESULT FROM ANY BREACH BY SELLER OF THE
WARRANTIES EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT.
	 
	 	13.1.8.	 	For purposes of this Agreement, “Regulations” shall mean all industry

	 	13.2.	 	Intellectual Property Infringement.

	 	13.2.1.	 	Subject to Section 13.2.2 below, Seller shall defend any suit or proceeding
brought against Buyer based on a claim that the Railcars, or any product,
accessory, part, component, or attachment thereof, furnished by Seller under
this Agreement, constitute an infringement of any patent of the United States;
provided that Seller is notified promptly, in writing, and is given
authority, information and assistance, at Seller’s expense, for the defense of
same.
	 
	 	13.2.2.	 	Seller’s obligation under Section 13.2.1 shall not cover or apply to (i) any
product, accessory, part, component, or attachment that is not manufactured by
Seller (including any Buyer-Supplied Component), except to the extent, and only
to the extent, that the manufacturer of any such item provides an indemnity
against patent infringement to Seller and (ii) the Railcars, or any part
thereof, manufactured or supplied to Buyer’s design; and, as to such Railcars,
or any part thereof, Seller assumes no liability whatsoever for patent
infringement.
	 
	 	13.2.3.	 	Subject to Section 13.2.4 below, Buyer shall defend any suit or proceeding
brought against Seller based on a claim that Railcars, or any product,
accessory, part, component or attachment (including Buyer-Supplied Components),
manufactured or supplied by Seller to Buyer’s designs, constitute an
infringement of any patent of the United States; provided that Buyer is
notified promptly, in writing, and is given authority, information and
assistance, at Buyer’s expense, for the defense of same.
	 
	 	13.2.4.	 	Buyer’s obligation under Section 13.2.3 shall not cover or apply to (i) any
product, accessory, part, component, or attachment that is not manufactured by
Buyer or (ii) a Buyer-Supplied Component, except to the extent, and only to the
extent, that the manufacturer or supplier of any such item provides an
indemnity against patent infringement to Buyer.
	 
	 	13.2.5.	 	Seller shall pay all damages and costs awarded against Buyer in an
infringement claim covered under Sections 13.2.1 and 13.2.2. In case the
Railcars, or any part thereof covered under Section 13.2.1, are involved in
such a suit, and are held to constitute infringement, and the use of the
Railcars, or any part thereof covered under Section 13.2.1, is enjoined, Seller
shall, at its own expense, and at its option, either procure for Buyer the
right to continue using said Railcar, replace same with non-infringing
equipment, modify said Railcar so that it becomes non-infringing, or refund the
Invoice Price of said Railcar.
	 
	 	13.2.6.	 	Buyer shall pay all damages and costs awarded against Seller in an
infringement claim covered under Sections 13.2.3 and 13.2.4. In case the
Railcars, or any part thereof covered under Section 13.2.3, are involved in

17

 

	 	 	 	such a suit, and are held to constitute infringement, and
the use of the Railcars, or any part thereof covered under Section 13.2.3,
is enjoined, Buyer shall, at its own expense, and at its option, either
procure for itself the right to continue using said Railcar or part
thereof, replace same with non-infringing equipment or modify said Railcar
or part thereof so that it becomes non-infringing.
	 
	 	13.2.7.	 	This Section 13.2 states the sole and entire liability of Seller and/or
Buyer, as applicable, for patent infringement by the Railcars, or any part
thereof. In case of any claim for defense and indemnity under this Section
13.2, Seller and/or Buyer, as applicable, shall undertake to conduct any
proceedings which Seller or Buyer, as applicable, deems necessary to defend the
other Party in respect of such matter. The indemnified Party shall have the
right to participate in those proceedings, at its own expense, but control of
the defense, the litigation, the negotiation, and any settlement shall remain
with the indemnifying Party. This indemnity shall be void if the indemnified
Party fails to provide reasonable cooperation in connection with any such
defense or shall take any action without the prior written consent of
indemnifying Party that unreasonably or materially prejudices the defense of
any such matter. In no event shall the indemnifying Party be required to
employ more than one firm of attorneys in defense of any one matter, but
nothing herein shall prevent the indemnifying Party from doing so, at its
option.

	14.	 	LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. WITH RESPECT TO ANY BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT, IN NO EVENT SHALL
EITHER PARTY HAVE LIABILITY TO THE OTHER PARTY AND NEITHER PARTY SHALL MAKE ANY CLAIM AGAINST
THE OTHER OR RECOVER ANY AMOUNT WHATSOEVER FROM THE OTHER FOR INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL,
SPECIAL, AND/OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES.
	 
	15.	 	LOCK-UP AND RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL.

	 	15.1.	 	Lock-Up. Buyer shall not sell a Railcar for a period of at least one
hundred eighty (180) days following Delivery, provided, however, the
180-day lock-up period shall not apply to (i) any asset-backed financing transaction
for the benefit of Buyer or any of its Affiliates, (ii) any merger, consolidation,
business combination, restructuring, reorganization, sale of all or substantially all
of the assets of Buyer, or any of its Affiliates or other transaction or series of
related transactions in which Buyer’s stockholders do not own or control a majority of
the outstanding voting shares of the continuing or surviving entity immediately after
such transaction(s), (iii) any sale of a Railcar to one of Buyer’s Affiliates, (iv)
any lease of a Railcar by Buyer to one of Buyer’s customers that includes a purchase option exercisable by such customer after such lock-up period, or (v) the
sale of such Railcar to a Third Party subject to a lease with another Third Party.

18

 

	 	15.2.	 	Right of First Refusal. In the event that, during the period beginning on
the 181st day following the Delivery of a Railcar purchased hereunder and
ending on the one (1) year anniversary of such Delivery (the “Option Period”),
Buyer desires to sell such Railcar to a Third Party, Buyer shall deliver to Seller a
written notice of the proposed sale (a “Sale Notice”) accompanied by a written
offer (the “Offer”) to sell such Railcar to Seller, on an “as is”, “where is”
basis, for an amount in cash equal to the Invoice Price paid by Buyer to Seller for
such Railcar pursuant to this Agreement, provided, however, no Sale
Notice be required to be delivered to Seller in connection with, and such right of
first refusal shall not apply to, (i) any asset-backed financing transaction for the
benefit of Buyer or any of its Affiliates, (ii) any merger, consolidation, business
combination, restructuring, reorganization, sale of all or substantially all of the
assets of Buyer, or any of its Affiliates or other transaction or series of related
transactions in which Buyer’s stockholders do not own or control a majority of the
outstanding voting shares of the continuing or surviving entity immediately after such
transaction(s), (iii) any sale of a Railcar to one of Buyer’s Affiliates, (iv) any
lease of a Railcar by Buyer to one of Buyer’s customers that includes a purchase
option exercisable by such customer after the lock-up period described in Section
15.1, or (v) the sale of such Railcar to a Third Party subject to a lease with another
Third Party. Each Sale Notice shall reasonably identify the Railcar(s) that Buyer
desires to sell to a Third Party during the Option Period but shall not include the
name of the proposed Third Party purchaser or any of the terms or conditions of the
proposed sale. Seller may accept the Offer by delivering written notice (an
“Offer Notice”) to Buyer by no later than 5:00 p.m., Chicago time, on the
tenth (10th) business day following the date of such Sale Notice. If
Seller fails to timely deliver an Offer Notice to Buyer, Seller shall be deemed to
have rejected the Offer. If Seller accepts the Offer, Seller shall close on the
purchase of such Railcar by no later than 5:00 p.m., Chicago time, on the thirtieth
(30th) day (or, if such day is not a business day, the immediately
following business day) following the date of such Offer Notice. The purchase price
for such Railcar shall be paid in full on the closing date by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to an account specified by Buyer at least two (2) days
prior to the closing date. In the event Seller does not accept the Offer, Buyer may
sell the Railcar that was the subject of such Sale Notice to any Third Party purchaser
following Seller’s rejection of the Offer. If, at any time, Buyer includes a Railcar
in a “request for proposal” or other multiple-bid auction process during the Option
Period, in lieu of making the Offer otherwise required hereby, Buyer shall provide
Seller with the opportunity to participate in such process and submit a bid to
purchase such Railcar, in each case subject to the terms and conditions of such
process that are no less favorable to Seller in the aggregate than the terms and conditions applicable to other participants in such
process.

placed prior thereto shall be Delivered by Seller, and Buyer shall accept Delivery of such
Railcars that comply with the Specification as provided under Section 11.1, in accordance

non-defaulting Party shall not have any further obligation

	 	 	to Deliver Railcars (in the case of Seller) or to accept any Railcars (in the case of
Buyer), in either case arising under Orders pending as of the date of the Event of
Default.
	 
	20.	 	SUPPLY OF SPARE PARTS. For a period beginning on the date hereof and ending on the

market price. In the event the date of Discontinued Operations is before the expiration of
such [*****] period, Seller (or Seller’s successor) shall give Buyer as much advance written
notice of such Discontinued Operations as possible, but in no event less than [*****] notice.
In addition, if Seller learns in writing that any of its Suppliers will cease to make any
Spare Parts, Seller shall give Buyer written notice of such Supplier’s decision promptly upon
learning of same.
	 
	21.	 	MISCELLANEOUS.

	 	21.1.	 	Further Assurances. Following acceptance of and payment for any Railcar

all such further acts, deeds and assurances as Buyer or Buyer’s counsel may, at any
time or from time to time, reasonably require to confirm Buyer’s right, title, and
interest in and to such Railcar in accordance with the intent and meaning of this
Agreement.
	 
	 	21.2.	 	Records Provided to Buyer. Within ninety (90) days after the transfer by Bill
of Sale of any Railcar to Buyer, Seller will furnish Buyer with copies, in electronic
form, of documents described on Exhibit I attached hereto (collectively,
“Records”). In addition, Seller will file an application with the AAR for a
certificate of construction (a “Certificate of Construction”) for each Railcar
within thirty (30) days after Delivery of the Railcar(s) to Buyer and shall provide
Buyer with such Certificate of Construction in electronic form within thirty (30) days
after Seller’s receipt thereof. If the AAR fails to issue a Certificate of
Construction for any Railcar within ninety (90) days after the date Seller’s
application was filed with the AAR, Seller will provide prompt written notification
thereof to Buyer. If such delay is attributable, in whole or in part, to an error or
omission by Seller in such application, Seller shall use its commercially reasonable
efforts to remedy such error or omission as soon as possible.
	 
	 	21.3.	 	Communication and Correspondence. Seller shall furnish to Buyer, promptly
upon Seller’s receipt thereof, copies of any notice or correspondence received by
Seller from any Third Party, including any governmental agency, with respect to any
Railcar manufactured by Seller for Buyer pursuant to the terms hereof. Seller

24

 

	 	 	 	shall also furnish to Buyer, promptly upon Seller’s receipt thereof, copies of any
notice or correspondence received by Seller from any manufacturer or supplier of any
part, material, equipment, or component installed in or on any Railcar manufactured
by Seller for Buyer pursuant to this Agreement.
	 
	 	21.4.	 	Confidentiality. In the course of performance hereunder, each of Buyer and
Seller (with respect to information disclosed by such Party, the “Disclosing
Party”) will disclose to the other Party (the “Receiving Party”), whether
in written, electronic, or oral form, information regarding the Disclosing Party’s
business plans, strategies, and processes that the Disclosing Party reasonably regards
as proprietary and confidential (“Confidential Information”). Confidential
Information shall include, but not be limited to, (1) delivery schedules, (2) pricing,
(3) margins, (4) Specification, (5) Orders, and the identities of, and the requirements
and pricing and delivery schedules for Buyer’s customers, and (6) terms of this
Agreement redacted by the Parties prior to public disclosure. The Receiving Party
agrees to hold the Confidential Information disclosed to it by or on behalf of the
Disclosing Party in confidence, to take commercially reasonable precautions to protect
such Confidential Information from disclosure and to use the Confidential Information
only in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, in
each case for a period of five (5) years from the date of disclosure. Subject to
Section 21.4.4 hereof, the Receiving Party shall not disclose any Confidential
Information to any of its employees unless such employees need to know such
Confidential Information in order for the Receiving Party to perform its obligations or
exercise its rights hereunder; provided, however, that the Receiving Party takes
commercially reasonable precautions to prevent such employee from (i) disclosing
Confidential Information to other employees who do not need to know such Confidential
Information in order for the Receiving Party to perform its obligations or exercise its
rights hereunder, and (ii) using Confidential Information in such employee’s business
decisions that are unrelated to the Receiving Party’s performance of its obligations or
exercise of its rights under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but
subject to Section 21.4.1, the Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information to
any of its legal, financial or tax planning representatives (“Representatives”)
who need to know such Confidential Information in order for the Receiving Party to
carry out its obligations or enforce its rights hereunder and who have been informed
of, and the Receiving Party shall cause such Representatives to abide by this Section
21.4; provided, that Buyer may also disclose Records that constitute Confidential
Information to any Third Party for the sole purpose of permitting, and only to the
extent necessary to enable, such Third Party to repair, maintain or modify Railcars
purchased under this Agreement so long as prior to such disclosure, such Third Party
enters into a confidentiality agreement with Seller on customary terms to be negotiated
and agreed upon by such Third Party and Seller, with Seller’s agreement not to be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Each Party shall be responsible for any action or failure to act that would constitute a breach
or other violation of this Section 21.4 by its Representatives.

25

 

	 	21.4.1.	 	From and after the Effective Date, the Margin Schedule may not be disclosed
to any of Buyer’s directors, officers, employees or Representatives who are not
members of Buyer’s Clean Team. For purposes of this Agreement, “Buyer’s
Clean Team” shall mean those officers, directors or employees of Buyer
identified by title or Buyer’s Representatives, in each case as reasonably
agreed to by the Parties prior to the Effective Date, but at a minimum, Buyer’s
Clean Team shall always consist of at least Buyer’s highest ranking legal,
finance and compliance officers; provided, that (a) Buyer may remove
individuals from Buyer’s Clean Team at any time and from time to time without
advance notice to Seller, and (b) in the event Buyer desires to add any
individuals to Buyer’s Clean Team subsequent to the date hereof, Buyer shall
provide Seller with the name and title of such individuals, and such
individuals will only be added to Buyer’s Clean Team with Seller’s written
approval.
	 
	 	21.4.2.	 	Seller’s Standard Manufacturing Cost and Seller’s actual cost for Railcars,
or any component thereof, shall only be disclosed to Buyer’s Third Party
Reviewer as set forth in Exhibit G.
	 
	 	21.4.3.	 	Confidential Information does not include information that: (i) the
Receiving Party can demonstrate was in its possession prior to being disclosed
by the Disclosing Party hereunder and the source of the information was not
under an obligation of confidentiality to the Disclosing Party; (ii) is now, or
hereafter becomes, through no act or failure to act on the part of the
Receiving Party, generally known to the public; (iii) is rightfully obtained
from a Third Party not bound under an obligation of confidentiality to the
Disclosing Party; or (iv) is independently developed by the Receiving Party
without reference to or use of any Confidential Information. The foregoing
restrictions on disclosure of Confidential Information do not apply to any
disclosure of Confidential Information with respect to which the Receiving
Party is advised by legal counsel that such disclosure is necessary or
compelled (a) under the federal securities laws or other applicable law, or by
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“SEC”) or of any stock exchange on which the Receiving Party’s stock is
listed, or (b) pursuant to the terms of any deposition, interrogatory, formal
litigation discovery request, subpoena, civil investigative demand, court order
or similar process to which the Receiving Party is subject; provided,
that the Receiving Party notifies the Disclosing Party (x) as promptly as
reasonably possible following its determination that such disclosure is
necessary or compelled under sub-clause (a) above, and (y) as promptly as
reasonably possible after service of such legal process and to the extent
legally permissible so that the Disclosing Party may seek an appropriate protective order, confidential treatment, or other remedy. In the event the
Receiving Party is required or compelled to disclose Confidential

26

 

	 	 	 	Information pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, the Receiving
Party may disclose only that portion of such Confidential Information
with respect to which the Receiving Party has been advised by its counsel
is required or compelled to be disclosed.
	 
	 	21.4.4.	 	Upon the request of the Disclosing Party following the expiration or
termination of this Agreement, the Receiving Party will return or destroy all
of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, except that the Receiving
Party may retain Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party that is (i)
necessary in connection with the enforcement of the Receiving Party’s rights
under this Agreement, (ii) required to be maintained by the Receiving Party’s
internal document retention policies or (iii) contained in an archived computer
system backup in accordance with the Receiving Party’s security or disaster
recovery procedures; provided that any such retained or archived Confidential
Information shall remain subject to the provisions of this Section 21.4 for so
long as it is maintained or archived; provided, further, a Receiving Party’s
legal or IT employees may access such retained or archived Confidential
Information solely to the extent necessary to perform their respective
functions described under this Section 21.4.4.
	 
	 	21.4.5.	 	Except as may be required by the federal securities laws or other applicable
law, or by the rules and regulations of the SEC or of any stock exchange on
which a Party’s stock is listed, no Party will make public the existence or
content of this Agreement or the negotiations leading to or pursuant to this
Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party;
provided, that no Party will be prohibited from disclosing the general
nature of the business relationship established hereby at any time;
provided, further, that the Parties agree that Buyer shall be
permitted to file a copy of this Agreement with the SEC and in connection
therewith shall request confidential treatment for certain portions of this
Agreement and certain of the Exhibits attached hereto as agreed by the Parties.

	 	21.5.	 	Broker’s Commission. Each Party agrees to indemnify and hold the other Party
harmless from and against any claims for commissions arising out of the acts of such
Party and for expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) and costs relating to
such claims or otherwise relating to such Party’s retention of any broker, finder or
other Person relating to a sale of the Railcars.
	 
	 	21.6.	 	Successors and Permitted Assigns. Neither Party may assign, transfer, sell,
or convey this Agreement to a Third Party without the prior written consent of the
other Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In the event
of a merger, consolidation or change in Control of a Party whereby this Agreement transfers by operation of law (a “Transaction”) to such Party’s
successor in interest (the “Transferee”), then:

27

 

	 	21.6.1.	 	In the case of a Transaction involving Seller, the Invoice Price for any
Exhibit A Railcar that is charged by Transferee to Buyer shall not increase as a
result of the Transaction or be greater than what Seller’s Invoice Price for any
such Exhibit A Railcar would have been absent the Transaction and in the ordinary
course of Seller’s operation of its business (in either case, an
“impermissible increase”). For purposes of determining impermissible
increases, upon reasonable request from Buyer, Transferee shall permit Buyer or
Buyer’s agent access to Transferee’s relevant books and records as to an Exhibit A
Railcar on commercially reasonable and confidential terms and conditions
(excluding direct access by Buyer to Transferee’s manufacturing cost information,
which access and review shall be handled in a manner similar to that described
under Exhibit G hereto but without limitation as to the number of reviews). Buyer
may terminate this Agreement with [*****]13 advance written notice in the
event [*****].
	 
	 	21.6.2.	 	In the case of a Transaction involving Buyer, Seller may terminate this
Agreement with [*****] advance written notice in the event [*****].

	 	21.7.	 	Severability. Any term, condition or provision of this Agreement which is, or
is deemed to be, void, prohibited, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall be, as to
such jurisdiction, severable herefrom and ineffective to the extent of such avoidance,
prohibition, and unenforceability without in any way invalidating the remaining terms,
conditions, and provisions hereof. Any such avoidance, prohibition, and
unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such
term, condition, or provision in any other jurisdiction.
	 
	 	21.8.	 	Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE BEEN MADE IN THE STATE
OF DELAWARE AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND THE RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES
OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, THE LAWS OF SUCH STATE WITHOUT GIVING
EFFECT TO THE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICT OF LAW THEREOF.
	 
	 	21.9.	 	Dispute Resolution. Each dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or in
any manner related to this Agreement or the breach thereof (a “Dispute”)
between the Parties will be resolved or adjudicated in accordance with the provisions
described in this Section 21.9.

	 	21.9.1.	 	In the event of a Dispute, either Party may, but is not required to, provide
written notice of such Dispute to the other Party (a “Dispute Notice”)
and in such event, representatives at the vice president level of each Party
shall meet in person to attempt to resolve such Dispute (a “Dispute
Negotiation”). Each Dispute Negotiation will take place at a time and

 

			
	13	 	[*****] Certain information on this page has
been omitted and filed separately with the Commission. Confidential treatment
has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.

28

 

	 	 	 	place agreed to by such representatives, within thirty (30) days after the
date of the Dispute Notice. At any time after delivery of a Dispute
Notice, either Seller or Buyer may, at its discretion, either in addition
or as an alternative to such Dispute Negotiation, initiate mediation in
Delaware, administered by the American Arbitration Association (the
“AAA”) under its commercial mediation procedures then in effect.
While Buyer and Seller shall have an obligation to participate in each
Dispute Negotiation and any mediation (provided the mediation is scheduled
within sixty (60) days after the date of the Dispute Notice and at a time
and place reasonably acceptable to Buyer and Seller), nothing herein shall
obligate Buyer or Seller to enter into any agreement or reach any
conclusion as a result of such Dispute Negotiation or mediation.
	 
	 	21.9.2.	 	In the event that a Dispute Notice is provided and the Parties are unable to
reach a mutually satisfactory resolution of the Dispute within ninety (90) days
after the date through Dispute Negotiation or mediation of such Dispute Notice,
or at any time in the event that no Dispute Notice is provided, either Party
may, upon written notice to the other (an “Arbitration Demand”)
initiate a binding arbitration, to take place in Delaware, administered by the
AAA (the “Arbitration”) under the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules and
Procedures (“AAA Rules”); provided, however, that in
the event of a conflict between the AAA Rules and the provisions of this
Section 21.9, the provisions of this Section 21.9 shall control. The
Arbitration shall be heard and determined by a panel of three (3) arbitrators
(each an “Arbitrator”). Within ten (10) business days after the
Arbitration Demand, each Party shall select, and provide written notice to the
other Party of the identity of, a single Arbitrator who shall be deemed
non-neutral and not subject to the provisions of Rule R-17 of the AAA Rules.
The third Arbitrator shall be selected in accordance with Rule R-11 of the AAA
Rules within twenty (20) business days after the Arbitration Demand;
provided, however, that the third Arbitrator must be a licensed
attorney, have experience in manufacturing and be listed on the AAA’s Large,
Complex Commercial Case Panel (or such other equivalent replacement roster of
experienced arbitrators that the AAA designates), unless the matter of dispute
arises under or relates to Exhibit G, in which case such third Arbitrator must
be an accountant with cost accounting and manufacturing experience.
	 
	 	21.9.3.	 	Any issue concerning the extent to which any Dispute is subject to
Arbitration, or concerning the applicability, interpretation, enforceability or
validity of these procedures, shall be governed by the United States Federal
Arbitration Act and not by any state arbitration law. Except in connection
with a Party’s application to a court of competent jurisdiction for interim or conservatory injunctive relief, to preserve a claim, to
preserve a position superior to other creditors, to resolve any issue
concerning jurisdiction, the existence or validity of the Arbitration

29

 

	 	 	 	provisions of this Section 21.9, or the extent to which any Dispute is
subject to Arbitration, or to compel Arbitration in accordance with this
Section 21.9, or to enforce judgment on the Arbitrators’ award, all of the
foregoing which shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction, no
Party may institute legal proceedings related to a Dispute. Any legal
proceeding permitted by the foregoing will be heard and determined only in a
state or federal court sitting in Delaware and the Parties hereby
irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such
legal proceeding, irrevocably waive any objection to venue, including the
defense of an inconvenient forum, to the maintenance of any such legal
proceeding, and irrevocably agree that written notice of such legal
proceeding in compliance with the notice provisions of this Agreement
constitutes valid and lawful service of process against them without the
necessity for service by any other means; provided, that,
notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties have the right to enforce
judgment on the arbitrators’ award in any court of competent jurisdiction.
	 
	 	21.9.4.	 	In any Arbitration initiated pursuant to this Section 21.9, the Parties
shall be permitted to take the following discovery without seeking leave of the
Arbitrators and each Party agrees to cooperate in producing all discovery
contemplated by this Section 21.9 or otherwise ordered by the Arbitrators. The
scope of discovery in the Arbitration shall be that each Party may obtain
discovery regarding any non-privileged matter that is relevant to any Party’s
claim or defense.
	 
	 	21.9.5.	 	Each Party may serve requests for production of documents and other tangible
things and such requests and the responses thereto shall be in accordance with
the provisions of Rule 34 of the FRCP, as if such provisions applied to the
Arbitration, and such requests may include requests for electronically stored
information, which requests and responses shall be in accordance with the
provisions of Rule 34 and Rule 26(b)(2)(b) of the FRCP as if such provisions
applied to the Arbitration proceeding. Each Party may serve interrogatories
and such interrogatories and the responses thereto shall be in accordance with
the provisions of Rule 33 of the FRCP as if such provisions applied to the
Arbitration. Each Party may serve requests for admission and such requests and
the responses thereto shall be in accordance with the provisions of Rule 36 of
the FRCP as if such provisions applied to the Arbitration. Each Party may take
up to 10 depositions of the other Party by serving a notice of deposition and
the other Party must produce the deponents as requested in accordance with the
provisions of Rule 30 of the FRCP, including Rule 30(b)(6), as if such
provisions applied to the Arbitration; provided, however, that
a Party that seeks to present the testimony of a third-party witness at the
Arbitration must produce such witness for deposition prior to the Arbitration
and such deposition shall not count towards the foregoing 10 deposition limit;
provided, further, that a Party that seeks to

30

 

	 	 	 	present the opinion testimony of an expert witness at the Arbitration must
produce a written expert report in accordance with the provisions of Rule
26(a)(2) of the FRCP as if such provisions applied to the Arbitration and
produce such expert witness for deposition prior to the Arbitration and such
deposition shall not count towards the foregoing 10 deposition limit.
	 
	 	21.9.6.	 	The Parties agree that in the event of Arbitration and before engaging in
any discovery, they will execute a Confidentiality Agreement and Agreed
Protective Order in the form attached hereto as Exhibit J, which shall govern
the exchange of information produced by any party or non-party in the
Arbitration. In such event, the Parties agree that they will request that the
Arbitrators enter the fully-executed Confidentiality Agreement and Agreed
Protective Order and that, in the case of any conflict between its terms and
the terms of this Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement and Agreed
Protective Order shall control. The Arbitrators may, upon written request of
any Party, limit the amount or scope of written discovery described above only
after all Parties have been given the opportunity to oppose such request in
writing. In no event, however, may the Arbitrator reduce the number of
depositions provided for above. The Arbitrator may compel a Party to comply
with discovery or its obligations under the Confidentiality Agreement and
Agreed Protective Order, including by awarding attorneys’ fees, assessing
monetary sanctions, and limiting a Party’s use of evidence at hearing. Any
Party has the right to have any hearing recorded by stenographic and video
means with such Party bearing the costs of the stenographer and videographer;
provided, however, that any other Party shall have to right to
obtain transcripts from the transcriber at such other Party’s own cost;
provided, further, however, that the Parties shall share
equally the cost of any transcript requested by the Arbitrators.
	 
	 	21.9.7.	 	The Arbitrators have the right to award or include in their award any relief
that they deem proper, including money damages (with interest on unpaid amounts
from the date due), specific performance, injunctive relief, monetary
sanctions, and attorneys’ fees and costs; provided, that the
Arbitrators shall have no power to award punitive damages or damages
inconsistent with this Agreement, and the Parties expressly waive their right
to obtain such damages in the Arbitration or in any other forum. In no event
shall the Arbitrators have any right, power, or authority to change, alter,
detract from, or add to the provisions of this Agreement, but they shall have
the power only to apply and interpret the provisions of this Agreement. The
Arbitrators may not consider any settlement discussions or offers that might
have been made by the either Party, whether or not made in connection with a
Dispute Negotiation or mediation. All aspects of the Arbitration (including the existence, content and result of the
Arbitration) shall be treated as Confidential Information. The Arbitrators’
decision shall be final and binding upon both Parties. Each Party shall be

31

 

	 	 	 	responsible for its own attorneys’ fees and costs, including filing fee and
final fee of the AAA, in connection with any such mediation or Arbitration,
subject to any award of attorneys’ fees and costs, and the Parties shall
share equally the costs of the mediator, the Arbitrators, the AAA (to the
extent in excess of filing and final fees), the mediation location, and the
Arbitration location.
	 
	 	21.9.8.	 	The Arbitration award shall be a reasoned award, made within the time limits
imposed by R-41 of the AAA Rules; provided, however, that the Arbitrators may
extend the time limits of R-41 as they deem necessary. After the award is
received by the Parties and all time periods provided for in R-46 have expired,
one or both of the Parties may present the award to a court of competent
jurisdiction for confirmation. The court’s confirmation of the award shall be
governed by Section 9 of the Federal Arbitration Act (the “Act”), and
the grounds for the court to vacate, modify, or correct the award shall be
limited to the grounds articulated in Sections 10 and 11 of the Act.

	 	21.10.	 	Notices. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all communications, notices and

33

 

	 	21.13.	 	Survival. Regardless of the expiration or termination for any reason of this
Agreement, the rights and obligations set forth in this Agreement that require or
contemplate performance by a Party after such expiration or termination shall remain in
full force and effect to the extent required for their full observance and performance,

Exhibit G

Third Party Review

1. General.

(a) Pursuant to Section 7 of the Agreement between Buyer and Seller dated March 14, 2011,
upon written notice to Seller, Buyer may initiate a Third Party Review with respect to the
matters set forth in Section 6 of this Exhibit G.

(b) Buyer may initiate a Third Party Review after the first Order Year of this Agreement.
Thereafter, Buyer may request [*****].20

(c) [*****]:

	 	(i)	 	[*****].
	 
	 	(ii)	 	[*****].
	 
	 	(iii)	 	[*****].
	 
	 	(iv)	 	[*****].

2. Selection of Third Party Reviewer. Within 30 days after Buyer’s notice to undertake a Third
Party Review, Buyer will appoint a reputable accounting firm to conduct the Third Party Review,
subject to Seller’s consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed (the
“Reviewer”), to the extent that such Reviewer does not have ethical conflicts given their
then-current or past dealings with either Party. Seller agrees that [*****] is an acceptable
Reviewer as of the Effective Date.

3. Confidentiality. The Parties agree that the Seller may require the Reviewer to enter into and
be bound by a confidentiality agreement in the form attached hereto as Schedule 1 to this Exhibit G
(the “Reviewer Confidentiality Agreement”). Buyer acknowledges that all information the
Reviewer receives from Seller will be considered “Evaluation Material” as set forth in the Reviewer
Confidentiality Agreement and, except to the extent otherwise provided under this Exhibit G or the
Reviewer Confidentiality Agreement, the Reviewer will be prohibited from disclosing any of such
Evaluation Material, whether in writing or orally, to Buyer or any other Person (other than to
Reviewer’s employees who need to know such information for purposes of the Third Party Review and
who the Reviewer shall cause to comply with the provisions of the Reviewer Confidentiality
Agreement) or using such Evaluation Material other than for purposes of its Third Party Review.
The Parties agree that the Reviewer may disclose such Evaluation Material if (but only to the
extent) required by applicable law or regulation, including any subpoena or other similar form of
process; provided, that the Reviewer will provide, unless prohibited by law, Seller with prompt
notice of any request that they disclose

 

			
	20	 	[*****] Certain information on this page has
been omitted and filed separately with the Commission. Confidential treatment
has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.

 

 

Seller’s Evaluation Material so that Seller may object to the request and/or seek an appropriate
protective order.

4. Recordkeeping; Access.

(a) During the Term of this Agreement and continuing thereafter for the longer of
[*****]21 or the period necessary to (i) resolve any pending Dispute or (ii)
complete any Third Party Review authorized under the Agreement, Seller shall maintain a
[*****] (collectively, the “Seller Records”).

(b) Seller will provide the Reviewer with access to the Seller Records and Seller’s
personnel, accountants, and any other information that is reasonably necessary to perform a
Third Party Review and for the Reviewer to prepare and issue the Report (as defined in
Section 7 of this Exhibit G). The Third Party Review will take place at Seller’s place of
business in Dallas, Texas and the Reviewer will not be permitted to (i) remove any of the
books, records, and information provided by Seller to the Reviewer from Seller’s place of
business or (ii) copy such books, records, or information for any purpose. The Reviewer may
keep its working papers, reports and copies of information obtained from Seller and/or Buyer
in connection with the Third Party Review to comply with applicable law, statute, rule,
regulation, or professional standards promulgated by AICPA. Any such information so kept
shall be retained in accordance with the terms of the Reviewer Confidentiality Agreement.

5. Conduct of Review. All Third Party Reviews will be performed during Seller’s normal business
hours and in a manner so as not to unreasonably interfere with Seller’s operations and personnel.
Reviewer and Seller will cooperate with each other as necessary for Reviewer to perform the Third
Party Review in an expeditious and efficient manner. Reviewer’s onsite access to Seller’s place of
business will be limited to a maximum of [*****] per Third Party Review performed hereunder;
provided, that Seller promptly responds to Reviewer’s reasonable requests for access and
information necessary to perform the Third Party Review.

6. Scope of Third Party Review.

(a) In connection with the Third Party Review, the Reviewer shall review Seller’s Records to
determine whether there were any discrepancies between [*****].

(b) In addition to its obligations set forth in Section 4 of this Exhibit G, Seller will, at
a minimum, prepare and deliver to the Reviewer, within thirty (30) days of its receipt of
notice that Buyer has elected to initiate a Third Party Review, the following information:

(i) A “Price Calculation List” for each Order of a Railcar listed on Exhibit
A to the Agreement for which Buyer received an invoice. The Price Calculation List
shall consist of [*****].

(ii) [*****].22

(iii) [*****].

(c) [*****].

7. Report.

(a) The Reviewer shall prepare a written report (the “Report”) [*****]:

     (i) [*****]

     (ii) [*****]

(b) [*****].

(c) [*****].

8. Settlement Procedures.

(a) If the Report discloses any discrepancies (whether related to Seller’s [*****], or
otherwise), Buyer may, at its option, request in writing a refund or credit for such
discrepancies, which shall include a description of the basis for Buyer’s request founded
upon the Report.

(b) Seller shall have thirty (30) days from its receipt of Buyer’s request to respond. If
Seller does not respond by the end of such thirty (30) day period or if Seller concurs with
any or all of the Reviewer’s findings, it shall issue a refund or credit to Buyer within ten
(10) business days in the full amount of Buyer’s request, unless Seller disputes a portion
of the Reviewer’s findings, in which case it shall issue a refund or credit to Buyer in the
amount that is not disputed by Seller.

(c) If Seller disputes any or all of the Reviewer’s findings, the Parties shall promptly
discuss the Reviewer’s findings under dispute and attempt to reach a settlement. If the
Parties reach a settlement on any or all of the disputed findings, Seller shall issue a
refund or credit to Buyer within ten (10) business days in the agreed amount. If the
Parties cannot reach a settlement on the remaining disputed findings within sixty (60) days
from the date of Buyer’s request for a refund or credit, Buyer may pursue such dispute under
the dispute resolution provisions set forth in Section 21.9 of the Agreement.

9. Buyer’s Access to the Report. Buyer shall be permitted to retain copies of the Report.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Buyer may utilize and
disclose the Report in connection with any Dispute.

Schedule 1 to Exhibit G

Reviewer Confidentiality Agreement

CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT

     This Confidentiality Agreement (this “Agreement”) is between Trinity Rail Group, LLC,
2525 Stemmons Freeway, Dallas, TX 75207 (“TRail”), and _____________________ a
____________________ with offices at __________________ (“Reviewer”). Reviewer and TRail
are sometimes referred to herein as individually as a “Party” and collectively as the
“Parties”.

     WHEREAS, Reviewer has been engaged by GATX Corporation (“GATX”) to perform certain
“Third Party Review” services (the “Services”) as provided for in that certain Supply
Agreement, by and between GATX and TRail, dated March 14, 2011 (the “Supply Agreement”);
and

     WHEREAS, TRail is agreeable to Reviewer’s performance of the Services subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and
valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties
hereby agree as follows:

	1.	 	Evaluation Material. “Evaluation Material” shall consist of any and
all disclosures by TRail to Reviewer with respect to Reviewer’s performance of the
Services.

	 	 	Notwithstanding the foregoing, Evaluation Material shall not include any information that:

	 	a.	 	is or becomes publicly available other than by a breach of this
Agreement by Reviewer;
	 
	 	b.	 	is acquired by Reviewer from a third party that is not, to Reviewer’s
knowledge, under any confidentiality obligation to TRail regarding such
information;
	 
	 	c.	 	is developed independently by Reviewer or GATX without reference to the
Evaluation Material; or
	 
	 	d.	 	is disclosed by TRail to any person or entity free of confidentiality
obligations to TRail.

	2.	 	Disclosure to GATX. Reviewer agrees not to disclose Evaluation Material to
GATX or GATX’s other representatives without TRail’s prior written consent. TRail agrees
that: Reviewer may (i) disclose to GATX the report containing the information described in

 

 

	 	 	Section 7(a) of Exhibit G to the Supply Agreement (“Exhibit G”) (the
“Report”), and (ii) may conduct general discussions with GATX and GATX’s
representatives regarding the overall scope or progress in the performance of the Services;
provided, that with respect to (ii) above, such disclosures or general discussions
do not include any Evaluation Material. Prior to disclosing any draft or final Report to
GATX, Reviewer will provide such Report to TRail to review. If TRail determines that such
Report needs to be redacted to avoid disclosure of Evaluation Material in accordance with
Section 7 of Exhibit G, Reviewer will redact the Reports in accordance with TRail’s
instructions. After any version of the Report has been redacted, TRail will provide its
consent for Reviewer to disclose the Report to GATX, which consent shall include an
acknowledgement that Reviewer has complied with the requirements of this Agreement.

	3.	 	Responsibility. Except for Reviewer’s obligations of confidentiality and
restricted use expressly set forth herein, Reviewer has no obligation towards TRail in
relation to the Services and TRail has no obligation to Reviewer.

	4.	 	Confidentiality and Use. Subject to Section 2 of this Agreement, Reviewer
agrees to keep confidential the Evaluation Material and shall disclose such information
only to its agents and those personnel at Reviewer and its agents who have a need to know
such information for performance of the Services, and shall use such Evaluation Material
solely for the purpose of performing its Services. Reviewer will be responsible for any
breach of this Agreement by its personnel and Reviewer’s agents and any employee of
Reviewer’s agents.

	5.	 	Disclosure Required by Law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement, Reviewer may disclose Evaluation Material that Reviewer is advised by legal
counsel that such disclosure is required or compelled by law, statute, rule, or regulation,
including any subpoena or other legal process, but only to the extent such law, statute,
rule, or regulation, subpoena, or other legal process requires disclosure. To the extent
reasonably possible, Reviewer will provide TRail with prompt notice of any request that
Reviewer has been advised to disclose Evaluation Material (so long as such notice is not
prohibited by such law, statute, rule, or regulation, subpoena or other legal process), so
that TRail may have the opportunity to object to the request and/or seek an appropriate
protective order. If TRail is unable to obtain or does not timely seek a protective order
and Reviewer is legally requested or required to disclose such Evaluation Material,
disclosure of such Evaluation Material may be made by Reviewer without liability.

	6.	 	Return of Information. Reviewer shall, upon TRail’s written request, return to
TRail or destroy all Evaluation Material in its possession; provided,
however, that Reviewer may keep its working papers, reports and copies of
information solely and specifically to comply with applicable law, statute, rule,
regulation or professional standards promulgated by the AICPA or other regulatory body with
jurisdiction. In addition, Reviewer may keep a copy of Evaluation Material that shall be
retained in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, notwithstanding the conclusion of
the Services, this Agreement, or the Supply Agreement.

 

 

	7.	 	Remedies. Reviewer recognizes the confidential and proprietary nature of the
Evaluation Material and acknowledges that, in the event it is determined by a court that a
breach of the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement has occurred or is likely to
occur, TRail will suffer irreparable harm. Accordingly, TRail shall be entitled to seek
preliminary and permanent injunctive relief in the event of a breach or threatened breach
of this Agreement, as well as all other applicable remedies at law or equity, including but
not limited to injunction or specific performance.

	8.	 	Term. Other than as expressed in Section 6 above, Reviewer’s confidentiality
obligations under this Agreement will terminate five (5) years from the last date that the
Services are performed.

	9.	 	Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed and construed pursuant to the
laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to its conflict-of-laws principles.

	10.	 	Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the only agreement between TRail and
Reviewer regarding the Evaluation Material and its disclosure and use with respect to the
Services.

	11.	 	Modification. This Agreement may not be modified, altered, or amended except
in a writing signed by the Parties.

	12.	 	Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts
(including by means of facsimile or .PDF) each of which will be deemed an original but all
of such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have signed this Agreement as of the _____day of _______________,
20_.

CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT AND AGREED PROTECTIVE ORDER

     The parties to this arbitration (the “Parties”), Claimant ______________ (“Claimant” or
“Party”) and Respondent _____________________ (“Respondent” or “Party”) enter into this
Confidentiality Agreement and Agreed Protective Order (“Agreement”) as follows:

     1. The term “Discovery Material” shall mean all information, tangible items, electronic
material and documents produced by any Party or non-party in response to discovery in the
arbitration proceeding, _______________________, AAA Case No. ________________ (the
“Arbitration”). For purposes of this Agreement, “Discovery Material” shall also include any
affidavit, motion, memorandum, pleading, image, or other material presented to the arbitration
panel that discloses Discovery Material designated “Confidential” and retaining its confidential
designation. This Agreement shall govern the handling of all such Discovery Material.

     2. The term “Confidential Discovery Material” shall refer to all Discovery Material which has
been designated by the producing Party (the “Producing Party”) as “Confidential” because such
Discovery Material contains Confidential Information. “Confidential Discovery Material” shall
also include Discovery Material designated by the Producing Party as “Confidential — Attorney
Eyes Only.” In designating information as “Confidential — Attorney
Eyes Only,” the Producing Party will make such a designation only as to that information that
it

 

 

believes contains highly sensitive business or technical information of the producing or
designation Party. The “Confidential — Attorney Eyes Only” category is more fully explained in
paragraph 15 below, but is identified here as being part of “Confidential Discovery Material.”
For purposes of this Agreement, “Party” shall include each Party’s respective affiliates defined
as any person or entity (or sub-unit of any entity) that, directly or indirectly through one or
more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with a Party.
“Confidential Information” is information in the possession of, prepared by, compiled by, or that
is used by a Party and (1) is proprietary to or about, or created by a Party; (2) gives a Party
some competitive business advantage, the opportunity of obtaining such advantage, disclosure of
which would be detrimental to the interest of the Party or contains business planning information;
or (3) is not typically disclosed by a Party, or known by persons who are not employed by a Party
or are not independent contractors of a Party. Confidential Information is also information
regarding former and current employees, officers, and independent contractors of a Party,
including information regarding their employment and/or termination therefrom, performance and
compensation. Confidential Information shall also include information pertaining to past,
current, and potential transactions engaged in or considered by a Party. Confidential Information
shall also include any information pertaining to current, former, and prospective customers of a
Party. Confidential Information shall also include any financial statements as to a Party to the
extent that such information has not already been publicly disclosed. Confidential Information
shall also include any other information that is “Confidential Information” under Section 21.4 of
the Supply Agreement dated March 14, 2011 between Claimant and Respondent (the “Supply
Agreement”).

     3. No Discovery Material designated as “Confidential” or “Confidential — Attorney Eyes Only”
hereunder or any copy, image, excerpt, or summary thereof shall be delivered or disclosed to any
person except as hereafter provided. The contents of any such Confidential
Discovery Material shall not be revealed except to persons authorized hereunder and except as
so provided. This Agreement does not apply to information furnished by Parties or non-parties

 

 

that (i) the Receiving Party (as defined below) can demonstrate was in its possession prior to
being disclosed by the Producing Party hereunder and the source of the information was not under
an obligation of confidentiality to the Producing Party; (ii) is now, or hereafter becomes,
through no act or failure to act on the part of the Receiving Party, generally known to the
public; (iii) is rightfully obtained from a Third Party not bound under an obligation of
confidentiality to the Producing Party; or (iv) is independently developed by the Receiving Party
without reference to or use of any Confidential Information.

     4. All Confidential Discovery Material produced in the Arbitration shall be used only for
the prosecution and/or defense of the Arbitration, and any person in possession of Confidential
Discovery Material shall maintain those materials in a reasonably secure manner so as to avoid
disclosure of their contents and in a manner no less secure than that used to protect its own
information of similar sensitivity or importance.

     5. Unless otherwise provided herein, the “Confidential” designation set forth in this
Agreement must be made at or prior to the time of production of documents by, to the extent
possible, stamping the word “Confidential” on the first page of the Discovery Materials to be
deemed Confidential. Information provided in electronic format, to the extent possible, should be
designated as “Confidential” by correspondence between counsel. Discovery Material produced prior
to entry of this Agreement may be designated as “Confidential” by referencing the Bates-label of
such information in correspondence between counsel or, if the material contains no Bates-label, by
describing the information in correspondence between counsel. Discovery Material in the form of
testimony in deposition or otherwise may be designated as “Confidential” by counsel so stating on
the record at the time of such testimony or in correspondence between counsel delivered within
thirty (30) days after a transcript containing such testimony is delivered to the Parties. All
testimony shall be treated as Confidential until the expiration of thirty (30)
days after a transcript containing such testimony is delivered to the Parties and thereafter
only such testimony designated as Confidential in accordance with the foregoing shall be treated as
Confidential.

 

 

     6. The inadvertent or unintentional production of discovery containing Confidential
Information that is not designated as Confidential Discovery Material at the time of the production
or disclosure shall not be deemed a waiver in whole or in part of a Party’s claim of
confidentiality, either as to the specific discovery produced or as to any other discovery relating
thereto or on the same related subject matter. Documents containing Confidential Information
inadvertently or unintentionally produced without being designated as Confidential Discovery
Material may be retroactively designated by notice in writing of the designated class of each
document by Bates number or other adequate description and shall be treated appropriately from the
date written notice of the designation is provided to the Receiving Party. To the extent that,
prior to such notice, a Party receiving the document or information may have disclosed it to others
outside the parameters of this Agreement, the Party shall not be deemed to have violated this
Agreement, but the Party shall cooperate with the designating Party’s effort to retrieve any
document or information promptly from such person and to limit any further disclosure pursuant to
this Agreement.

     7. A Party who has received Discovery Material (the “Receiving Party”) that is
designated as “Confidential” and who objects to the designation of any Discovery Material as
Confidential Discovery Material, shall notify counsel for the Producing Party in writing of its
objection. The Producing Party and the objecting Receiving Party shall attempt to resolve all
objections by agreement. If any objections cannot be resolved by agreement, the Receiving Party
shall have fourteen (14) business days from the time in which the Receiving Party delivers its
written objection to apply to the arbitration panel for a determination as to whether the
Confidential designation is appropriate. Until an objection has been resolved by agreement of
counsel or by order of the arbitration panel, the Discovery Material shall be treated as
Confidential Discovery Material subject to this Agreement. In the event that a Receiving
Party fails to apply to the arbitration panel for a determination as to whether the Confidential
designation is appropriate within fourteen (14) business days of delivery of the written objection,
the Discovery Material to which the Receiving Party objected shall be treated as Confidential

 

 

Discovery Material. The burden of proof in any proceeding regarding whether the designation of any
document as “Confidential” is appropriate is at all times on the Party designating the document as
“Confidential.”

	     8. No Receiving Party shall disclose, summarize, describe, characterize, or otherwise
communicate Confidential Discovery Material except as permitted by this Agreement. Confidential
Discovery Material shall not be disclosed, summarized, described, characterized, or otherwise
communicated in any way to anyone except:

	 	a.	 	The arbitration panel, all arbitration personnel (including all
court reporters employed in connection with this action) and all mediators;
	 
	 	b.	 	Counsel of record in this action, and attorneys, paralegals,
and other persons employed or retained by such counsel who are assisting in the
conduct of this action;
	 
	 	c.	 	Employees of the Parties or their Affiliates;
	 
	 	d.	 	Actual and potential witnesses and deponents (and their counsel);
	 
	 	e.	 	Experts, consultants and/or litigation support personnel (and
employees of such experts or consultants) who are not employees of any Party and
who are retained or consulted for the purpose of being retained by any Party in
connection with this action;
	 
	 	f.	 	Any other person upon order of the arbitration panel or upon all
Parties’ written agreement; and
	 
	 	g.	 	Any person who was either an original author or recipient of a
document containing or constituting the Confidential Discovery Material.

All persons to whom Confidential Discovery Material is disclosed pursuant to Paragraphs 8 (c)-(g)
above shall, prior to disclosure: (i) be advised that the Discovery Material is being
disclosed pursuant to and subject to the terms of this Agreement and may not be disclosed other
than pursuant to the terms hereof; and (ii) expressly agree to be bound by the terms of the
Agreement. Execution of an Acknowledgement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit J-1 shall
evidence such notification and agreement.

 

 

     9. All pleadings, including appendices that attach Confidential Discovery Material as
evidence and are presented to the arbitration panel shall be delivered in sealed envelopes marked
with the style and number of this action.

     10. Nothing in this Agreement will be construed as limiting the Parties’ right to object to
any discovery or to object to the authenticity or admissibility of any evidence.

     11. This Agreement will continue to be binding throughout and after the final disposition of
this action. Within ninety (90) days after receiving notice of the entry of an award, order,
judgment or decree finally disposing of this action, all persons having received Confidential
Discovery Material will either return all Confidential Discovery Material and any copies thereof
(including summaries and excerpts) to the opposing Party or its attorney or destroy all such
Confidential Discovery Material and certify in writing to the opposing Party and its attorney to
that fact. With regard to electronic copies of Confidential Discovery Material, there is no
obligation to return or destroy copies that are not reasonably accessible because of undue burden
or cost.

     12. This Agreement shall not be construed to affect in any way the use, presentation,
introduction, or admissibility of any document, testimony, or other evidence at a deposition,
trial, or hearing in this arbitration; provided that any Party may ask the arbitration panel to
hold any proceeding in this action in camera on the grounds that such proceeding will involve or
relate to Confidential Discovery Material.

     13. Nothing in this Agreement shall operate to require the production of documents, testimony,
and other materials and information that are privileged or otherwise protected from discovery.

     14. If any Party to this Agreement (a) is subpoenaed in another action, or (b) is served with
a demand in another action to which he or it is a Party, or (c) is served with any other legal
process by one not a party to this litigation seeking Confidential Discovery Material, the
Receiving Party shall give written notice to the Producing Party of such subpoena, demand, or legal
process within five (5) business days of receipt, and shall not produce any Discovery

 

 

Material,
unless Court-ordered, for a period of at least ten (10) business days after providing the required
notice to Producing Party. If, within ten business (10) days of receiving such notice, the
Producing Party gives notice to the Receiving Party that the Producing Party opposes production of
its Confidential Discovery Material, the Receiving Party shall not thereafter produce such
Confidential Discovery Material except pursuant to a Court order requiring compliance with the
subpoena, demand, or other legal process. The Producing Party shall be solely responsible for
asserting any objection to the requested production. Nothing herein shall be construed as
requiring the Receiving Party to challenge or appeal any order requiring production of Confidential
Discovery Material covered by this Agreement, or to subject himself or itself to any penalties for
compliance with any legal process or order, or to seek any relief from the arbitration panel.
Nothing herein shall prohibit the Receiving Party from producing Confidential Discovery Material to
any law enforcement or governmental agency which is within the scope of such agency’s request and
after providing at least five (5) business days’ notice to the Producing Party and after providing
the Producing Party a reasonable opportunity to object to such production, provided that the
production of any Confidential Discovery Material shall be at the Producing Party’s cost and
expense.

     15. The Receiving Party may not disclose, summarize, describe, characterize, or otherwise
communicate documents or information designated as “Confidential — Attorney Eyes Only” to any
persons other than those identified in paragraphs 8(a), 8(b) and 8(e), who are the only persons
allowed to review such material. This category of documents is reserved for a very select group of
documents and information and may only be used for that group of documents
that have not been disclosed to the public and that, if disclosed to the public, may cause
irreparable harm or damage to a Party. The procedures for designating documents (paragraph 5),
objecting to any designation (paragraph 7), designating deposition testimony as confidential
(paragraphs 1 and 5) and filing “Confidential Materials” under seal (paragraph 9), shall apply to
documents designated “Confidential — Attorneys Eyes Only.” Likewise, the duties and
responsibilities the Parties have to agree to permit retroactive designation (paragraph 6), to

 

 

notify the other Party of a subpoena or order (paragraph 14) and to return or destroy documents
(paragraph 11) shall apply to documents designated as “Confidential — Attorney Eyes Only.”

     16. The rights and obligations of the Parties to this Agreement are in addition to and not in
lieu of the rights and obligations of the Parties pursuant to the Supply Agreement, including,
without limitation, Section 21.4 thereof, which shall remain in full force and effect in accordance
with the terms thereof.

The provisions of this Agreement may be modified only upon written agreement of the Parties.
