THE CREDIT FACILITY

     SECTION 2.01 Commitment to Lend. Each Committed Lender severally agrees, subject to
the Agent’s determination that the terms and conditions of Sections 2.02 and 4.02
applicable to the Closing Date have been (a) satisfied or, (b) in all other cases, waived by the
Agent and the Supermajority Lenders, and on the other terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement, to make a loan (relative to a Committed Lender, its “Loan”) to the Borrower
equal to such Committed Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the aggregate amount of the Borrowing of
Loans to be made on the Closing Date pursuant to this Section 2.01 in a single Borrowing
prior to the Commitment Termination Date in order to fund the acquisition of Railcars and related
Leases by the Borrower on the Closing Date. The Loans advanced on the Closing Date with respect to
any Railcars and related Leases shall not:

     (i) exceed the lesser of (A) the Initial Principal Amount and (B) the
product of (x) the Advance Rate multiplied by (y) the Aggregate Original
Value of all Eligible Railcars to be added to the Portfolio on the Closing Date; and

     (ii) in the case of any Committed Lender, exceed its Commitment.

The Borrowing shall be made, severally, from the Committed Lenders in proportion to their
respective Commitments. The Committed Lenders have no obligation to make any Loans hereunder
except as expressly set forth in this Agreement. Within the foregoing limits, the Borrower may
borrow under this Section 2.01, repay, or, to the extent permitted or required by
Section 2.07, prepay, Loans, but may not reborrow under this Section 2.01.

     SECTION 2.02 Procedures for Borrowing. (a) Request; Delivery of Funding
Package. The Borrower may provide the Agent with a single Request, signed by a Responsible
Officer of each of the Borrower and the Servicer, to include all (but not less than all) of the
Railcars and related Leases described in the Railcar Portfolio CD-ROM in the Portfolio on the
Closing Date. Concurrent with the delivery of the Request, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent
the Funding Package for each such Railcar. The Borrower shall also set forth in such Request for
each Lease in effect prior to the proposed Closing Date a statement that, to the Knowledge of each
of the Borrower and the Servicer, (i) the Lessee has made rent payments on time (giving effect to
any

37

 

applicable grace periods) under such Lease or, if not, a description of any late payments of
which any Facility Party is aware during the one-year period (or shorter period, as applicable)
prior to the date of such Request and a summary description of any earlier such defaults, if any,
of which the Borrower or Servicer is aware and (ii) no Lease Default or Lease Event of Default
under such Lease has occurred during the one-year period (or shorter period, as applicable), prior
to the date of such Request or, if that is not the case, a description of any such Lease Default or
Lease Event of Default of which the Borrower or Servicer is aware. The Borrower shall supplement
the Request with whatever additional information the Agent reasonably requests about the proposed
transaction.

     (b) Notice of Borrowing. Upon approval by the Agent (with the consent of the
Supermajority Lenders, if required) of the Railcars and related Leases to be included in the
Portfolio on the Closing Date in accordance with Section 2.02(a), the Borrower may, subject
to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, borrow Loans on the Closing Date in respect of each
such Railcar and related Lease which is an Eligible Railcar and/or Eligible Lease, as applicable.
In such event, the Borrower shall give the Agent a Notice of Borrowing not later than 11:00 A.M. on
the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Closing Date, specifying:

     (i) the proposed Closing Date of the Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day no
earlier than ten Business Days following receipt by the Agent of the Request and a complete
Funding Package with respect to such Railcar, unless otherwise approved by the Agent;

     (ii) the aggregate amount of the Borrowing; and

     (iii) a description of the Eligible Railcars to be financed and the Eligible Lease(s)
to be pledged on the Closing Date (which may be by cross reference to or attachment of the
related Request).

In addition, the Borrower shall deliver to each Committed Lender a copy of the Funding Package with
respect to all Railcars funded on the Closing Date within 20 days after the Closing Date.

     (c) Automatic Termination. The Commitments of the Committed Lenders shall
automatically terminate on the Commitment Termination Date.

     SECTION 2.03 Notice to Committed Lenders; Funding of Loans. (a) Notice to
Committed Lenders. Upon receipt of a Notice of Borrowing, the Agent shall promptly deliver to
each Committed Lender a Financing Notice notifying such Committed Lender of the Closing Date and of
such Committed Lender’s ratable share of the Loans referred to therein.

     (b) Funding of Loans. Not later than 11:00 A.M. on the Business Day before the
Closing Date (the “Prefunding Date”), each Committed Lender shall make available or
instruct (followed by diligent attention to such instruction until such time as the Collateral
Agent shall have received such Loan into the Prefunding Account) its correspondent bank, if any, to
make available its share of such Borrowing, in Federal or other immediately available funds, to the
Collateral Agent into the Prefunding Account. Unless the Agent determines that any applicable
condition specified in Article IV has not been satisfied or waived, the Agent shall, by
2:30 P.M. on the Closing Date, instruct the Collateral Agent to make the amount of such Borrowing

38

 

available to the Borrower at the general deposit account in the United States designated by
the Borrower in immediately available funds in a wire transfer. In the event that the conditions
as set forth in Section 4.02 for such Loan are not satisfied or waived on the Closing Date,
the Agent shall instruct the Collateral Agent to return to the Committed Lenders their respective
Loans advanced pursuant to this Section 2.03. Such amounts contemplated in the first
sentence of this Section 2.03(b) shall be held in the Prefunding Account.

     A Notice of Borrowing, once delivered to the Agent, shall be irrevocable and binding on the
Borrower. Following such Notice of Borrowing, the Borrower shall indemnify each Committed Lender
against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Committed Lender as a result of any failure to
fulfill, on or before the proposed Closing Date specified in the Notice of Borrowing, the
conditions set forth in Section 4.02, including any loss, cost or expense incurred by
reason of the liquidation or re-employment of deposits or such funds acquired by the Committed
Lenders to fund the Loans to be made pursuant to this Section 2.03(b). Any such loss, cost
or expense shall be paid in accordance with Section 2.07(c) after any Committed Lender
shall have furnished to the Borrower and the Agent, with reasonable supporting calculations, a
notice specifying the amounts thereof.

     (c) [Reserved].

     (d) Obligations of Committed Lenders Several. The failure of any Committed Lender to
make a Loan required to be made by it as part of the Borrowing hereunder shall not relieve any
other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make any Loan on the Closing Date of such
Borrowing, but, except as otherwise provided in Section 11.06(g), no Lender shall be
responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Loan to be made by such other Lender on
the Closing Date.

     SECTION 2.04 Evidence of Loans. (a) Lender Accounts. Each Lender shall
maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness
to such Lender resulting from the Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and
interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

     (b) Agent Records. The Agent shall maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the
amount of each Loan made hereunder, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or
to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any
sum received by the Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof.

     (c) Evidence of Debt. The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to
subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 2.04 shall be conclusive evidence
(absent manifest error) of the existence and amounts of the obligations therein recorded;
provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Agent to maintain such
accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligations of the Borrower to
repay the Loans in accordance with their terms.

     (d) Notes. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender
shall request and receive a Note or Notes as provided in Section 11.06 or otherwise, then
the Loans of such Lender shall be evidenced by a single Note substantially in the form of
Exhibit B,

39

 

and payable to the order of such Lender in an amount equal to the aggregate unpaid principal
amount of such Lender’s Loans.

     (e) Note Endorsements. Each Lender having a Note shall record the date and amount of
each Loan made by it and the date and amount of each payment of principal made by the Borrower with
respect thereto, and may, if such Lender so elects in connection with any transfer or enforcement
of its Note, endorse on the reverse side or on the schedule, if any, forming a part thereof
appropriate notations to evidence the foregoing information with respect to each outstanding Loan
evidenced thereby; provided that the failure of any Lender to make any such recordation or
endorsement shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under any such Note.
Each Lender is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Borrower so to endorse its Note and to attach
to and make a part of its Note a continuation of any such schedule as and when required. When the
Borrower has paid a Note in full, such Lender will promptly return such Note to the Agent, who will
return such Note to the Borrower, against receipt therefor, marked “PAID IN FULL”.

     (f) Lost, Mutilated and Destroyed Notes, etc. If any Note issued to a Lender pursuant
to this Agreement shall become mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen, the Borrower shall, upon the
written request of the holder of such Note, execute and deliver to the Agent, who shall endorse and
deliver to the applicable Lender in replacement thereof a new Note, payable to the same holder in
the same principal amount and dated the same date as the Note so mutilated, destroyed, lost or
stolen. If the Note being replaced has become mutilated, such Note shall be surrendered to the
Borrower for cancellation and if the Note being replaced has been destroyed, lost or stolen, the
holder of such Note shall furnish to the Borrower such indemnification as may be required by the
Borrower to hold the Borrower harmless and evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower of the
destruction, loss or theft of such Note and of the ownership thereof; provided,
however, that if the holder of such Note is a Lender, the written undertaking of such
Lender shall be sufficient indemnity for purposes of this Section 2.04(f).

     SECTION 2.05 Interest. (a) Rate of Interest. (i) Each Loan (or any
amounts held in the Prefunding Account pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing issued by the Borrower as
provided in Section 2.03(b)) shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount
thereof, for each day (excluding the last day) during each Interest Period applicable thereto, at a
rate per annum equal to the Applicable Rate for such day; provided that any change to the
interest rate shall not take effect until the next succeeding Interest Period after such
designation. Such interest shall be payable in arrears on each Settlement Date and on the
Termination Date.

     (ii) At any time during which an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, each
Loan shall bear additional interest (in addition to the interest payable pursuant to
Section 2.05(a)(i)) on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day during
each Interest Period applicable thereto, at a rate per annum equal to the Default Margin and
such accrued additional interest shall be aggregated on the last day of such Interest Period
(all such aggregated additional interest, the “Aggregated Default Interest”). Such
Aggregated Default Interest shall bear interest on the outstanding amount thereof, for each
day (excluding the last day) during each Interest Period applicable thereto, at a rate per
annum equal to the Aggregated Default Interest Rate and such accrued interest shall be
aggregated on the last day of such Interest Period with the

40

 

Aggregated Default Interest and shall be deemed “Aggregated Default Interest” upon such
aggregation. Aggregated Default Interest and the interest thereon shall be payable in
arrears on the date on which the aggregate principal amount of the Loans have been paid in
full pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

     (b) Determination and Notice of Interest Rates. The Agent shall determine each
interest rate applicable to the Loans (or any amounts held in the Prefunding Account pursuant to a
Notice of Borrowing issued by the Borrower as provided in Section 2.03(b)) hereunder as
provided herein. The Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower and the participating Lenders
of each rate of interest so determined, and its determination thereof shall be conclusive in the
absence of manifest error.

     SECTION 2.06 Repayment and Maturity of Loans.

     (a) Term Maturity Date. At any time and from time to time following the occurrence of
the Term Maturity Date, if the outstanding principal balance of the Loans is greater than
zero then the Collateral Agent (at the written direction of the Agent and the Required Lenders,
which direction shall specify the manner in which such Collateral shall be sold as well as the
amount) may direct the Borrower through a written notice of direction to (and upon receipt of such
written notice of direction the Borrower shall or shall cause the Servicer to) sell all or any part
of the Collateral in the amount and in the manner specified by the Collateral Agent in such written
notice of direction, and upon any such written notice of direction the outstanding principal amount
of the Loans in an amount equal to the aggregate of the Allocable Debt for each Railcar so
requested to be sold shall become immediately due and payable.

     (b) Legal Final Maturity Date. On the Legal Final Maturity Date, the remaining
principal balance of the Loans and all other Obligations under the Loan Documents shall become
immediately due and payable.

     SECTION 2.07 Prepayments. (a) Voluntary Prepayments. Subject always to
Section 7.05, the Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to
voluntarily prepay the Loans in whole or in part; provided, however, that (i) each
partial prepayment of Loans shall be in a minimum principal amount of $1,000,000 and (ii) the
Borrower shall have given prior written or telecopy notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed
by written or telecopy notice) to the Agent by 10:00 A.M., at least five Business Days prior to the
date of prepayment. Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date and the principal
amount to be prepaid. Each notice of prepayment shall be irrevocable and shall commit the Borrower
to prepay such Loans by the amount stated therein on the date stated therein. All prepayments
under this Section 2.07(a) and/or Section 2.07(b) shall be accompanied by Optional
Prepayment Premium (if any), accrued interest on the principal amount being prepaid to the date of
payment together with any Funding Losses amounts owed to any Lender.

in clauses (i) through (iii) of this Section 2.07(b). All payments under
this Section 2.07(b) shall be accompanied by Optional Prepayment Premium (if any), accrued
interest on the principal amount being prepaid to the date of payment together with any Funding
Losses owed to any Lender.

expenses referred to in Section 2.03(b), in each case in this clause
first relating to the principal portion of the Loans being paid on such date
pursuant to clause second below;

     second, ratably (x) to the Lenders for the payment of the applicable Prepayment
Amount, and (y) to the Derivatives Creditors for the payment of Derivatives Termination
Value (other other than for the payment of Derivatives Termination Value resulting from a
Derivatives Creditor Event), if any, and (z) to the Lenders, for the payment of any Optional
Prepayment Premium;

     third, unless an Event of Default or Amortization Event has occurred and is
continuing, to be applied in the order of priority set forth in Section 2.07(c)(i);
and

     fourth, if an Event of Default or Amortization Event has occurred and is
continuing, to be applied in the order of priority set forth in Section 2.07(c)(ii);

     (iv) Earnings on Cash Equivalents. Any earnings on Cash Equivalents shall
constitute part of the Collateral and shall be applied in accordance with Section

account, and under no circumstances shall the Collateral Agent, the Agent or any Lender have
any liability or responsibility therefor.

     (d) Release of Amounts from Liquidity Reserve Account. On any Settlement Date, if
there exists in the Liquidity Reserve Account any amount in excess of the Liquidity Reserve Target
Amount (after giving effect to all other payments to be made on such Settlement Date and as
calculated on the Calculation Date immediately preceding such Settlement Date), the Agent shall be
deemed to have released such excess amount from the Liquidity Reserve Account and such excess
amount shall be applied by the Depositary in accordance with Section 2.07(c).

     SECTION 2.08 Optional Replacement of Lenders (Non-Pro-Rata). If (i) any Lender or
other Tax Protected Party has demanded compensation or indemnification pursuant to Section
3.01, 3.03 or 3.04, or (ii) the obligation of any Lender to fund its Loans at
the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate has been suspended pursuant to Section 3.02 or (iii) any
Lender has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination which
pursuant to the terms of Section 11.03 or any other provision of any Loan Document requires
the consent of the Supermajority Lenders or all of the Lenders, the Borrower shall have the right,
with the prior

47

 

written consent of the Agent, to (i) remove such Lender and all related Tax Protected Parties
or (ii) replace such Lender and all related Tax Protected Parties by causing the related Lender to
assign its outstanding Loans and Notes (if any) to one or more existing Lenders or Eligible
Assignees pursuant to Section 11.06. The replacement of a Lender pursuant to this
Section 2.08 shall be effective on the tenth Business Day (the “Replacement Date”)
following the date of notice of such replacement to the Lenders through the Agent, subject to the
satisfaction of the following conditions:

     (A) each replacement Lender and/or Eligible Assignee, and each Tax Protected Party
subject to replacement, shall have satisfied the conditions to an Assignment and Acceptance
set forth in Section 11.06(b) and, in connection therewith, the replacement
Lender(s) and/or Eligible Assignee(s) shall pay to each Tax Protected Party subject to
replacement an amount equal in the aggregate to the sum of (A) the principal of, and all
accrued but unpaid interest on, its outstanding Loans and (B) all accrued but unpaid fees
owing to it pursuant to Section 2.09; and

     (B) the Borrower shall have paid to the Agent for the account of each replaced Tax
Protected Party an amount equal to all obligations owing to such replaced Tax Protected
Party by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (other than
those obligations of the Borrower referred to in clause (A) above).

In the case of the removal of a Tax Protected Party pursuant to this Section 2.08, upon
payment by the Borrower to the Agent for the account of the Tax Protected Party subject to such
removal of an amount equal to the sum of (i) the aggregate principal amount of all Loans held by
such Tax Protected Party and (ii) all accrued interest, fees and other amounts owing to such Tax
Protected Party hereunder, including, without limitation, all amounts payable by the Borrower to
such Tax Protected Party under Article III or Sections 11.05 and 11.06,
such Tax Protected Party shall cease to constitute a Tax Protected Party hereunder;
provided that the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the
provisions of Article III and Sections 11.05 and 11.06) shall continue to
govern the rights and obligations of a removed Tax Protected Party with respect to any Loans made
or any other actions taken by such removed Tax Protected Party while it was a Tax Protected Party.

     SECTION 2.09 Agent Fee Letter. On each Settlement Date, the Borrower shall pay the
Agent for its account such fee or fees as shall be payable at such time in accordance with the
Agent Fee Letter.

     SECTION 2.10 Pro-rata Treatment. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, the
Borrowing, each payment or prepayment of principal of or interest on any Loan, each payment of fees
and each conversion or continuation of any Loan, shall be allocated pro-rata among the relevant
Lenders in accordance with the respective principal amounts of the outstanding Loans of such
Lenders); provided that, in the event any amount paid to any Lender pursuant to this
Section 2.10 is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Agent, each Lender shall,
upon the request of the Agent, repay to the Agent the amount so paid to such Lender, with interest
for the period commencing on the date such payment is returned by the Agent until the date the
Agent receives such repayment at a rate per annum equal to, during the period to but excluding

48

 

the date two Business Days after such request, the Federal Funds Rate, and thereafter, the
Corporate Base Rate plus two percent per annum.

     SECTION 2.11 Sharing of Payments. The Lenders agree among themselves that, except to
the extent otherwise provided herein, if any Lender shall obtain payment in respect of any Loans or
any other obligation owing to such Lender under this Agreement through the exercise of a right of
setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim, or pursuant to a secured claim under Section 506 of the
Bankruptcy Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim,
received by such Lender under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or
otherwise, or by any other means, in excess of its pro-rata share of such payment as provided for
in this Agreement, such Lender shall promptly pay in cash or purchase first, from the
Lenders a participation in the Loans in such amounts received by any such Lender, and make such
other adjustments from time to time, as shall be equitable to the end that all the Lenders share
such payment in accordance with their respective ratable shares as provided for in this Agreement.
The Lenders further agree among themselves that if payment to a Lender obtained by such Lender
through the exercise of a right of setoff, banker’s lien, counterclaim or other event as aforesaid
shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored, each Lender which shall have shared the benefit
of such payment shall, by payment in cash or a repurchase of a participation theretofore sold,
return its share of that benefit (together with its share of any accrued interest payable with
respect thereto) to each Lender whose payment shall have been rescinded or otherwise restored. The
Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing such a participation may, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, exercise all rights of payment, including setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim,
with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a holder of such Loans or other
obligation in the amount of such participation. If under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or
other similar law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this
Section 2.11 applies, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in
respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Lenders under this
Section 2.11 to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.

     SECTION 2.12 Payments, Computations, Proceeds of Collateral, Etc. (a) Unless
otherwise expressly provided in a Loan Document, all payments by the Borrower to the Protected
Parties pursuant to each Loan Document shall be made by the Borrower (or by its designee) to the
Agent for the pro rata account of the Protected Parties entitled to receive such
payment or, at the direction of the Agent, directly to such Protected Parties. All payments shall
be made without setoff, deduction (except for Taxes which are expressly addressed in Section
3.01) or counterclaim not later than 11:00 A.M. New York City time on the date due in Dollars
in same day or immediately available funds to such account or accounts (if payment is to be made
directly to the Protected Parties) as the Agent shall specify from time to time by notice to the
Borrower. Funds received after that time shall be deemed to have been received by the Agent or a
Protected Party, as the case may be, on the next succeeding Business Day. In the event that a
payment is made to Agent for the pro rata account of the Protected Parties entitled
to such payment, the Agent shall promptly remit in same day funds to each Protected Party its
share, if any, of such payments received by the Agent for the account of such Protected Party.
Whenever any payment is to be made hereunder or under any Loan, or whenever the last day of any
Interest Period would otherwise occur on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be
made, and the last day of such Interest Period shall occur, on the next succeeding Business Day and
interest at the Applicable Rate shall accrue on such amount from the original

49

 

due date to such next Business Day; provided, that if such extension would cause the
last day of such Interest Period to occur in a new calendar month, the last day of such Interest
Period shall occur on the next preceding Business Day.

     (b) Distributions by the Agent. Each such distribution by the Agent to such Protected
Party shall be made in accordance with Section 2.07. Upon the request of any Protected
Party, the Agent in its sole discretion may cause to be distributed to such Protected Party on such
due date a corresponding amount with respect to the amount then due such Protected Party. If and
to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Agent and the Agent
shall have so caused to be distributed to such Protected Party a corresponding amount with respect
to the amount then due such Protected Party, such Protected Party shall repay forthwith on demand
such amount distributed to such Protected Party together with interest thereon, for each day from
the date such amount is distributed to such Protected Party until the date such Protected Party
repays such amount to the Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate for the first three Business Days after
demand by the Agent and at the Applicable Rate thereafter until the date such Protected Party
repays such amount to the Agent.

     (c) Computations. All computations of interest and fees hereunder shall be made on
the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days. Interest shall accrue from
and include the date of borrowing but exclude the date of payment.

     SECTION 2.13 Interest Rate Risk Management.

     (a) On the Closing Date, the Borrower will enter into, and maintain until the earlier of (i)
the Expected Maturity Date or (ii) the Termination Date, one or more Derivatives Agreements with an
aggregate notional balance equal to or exceeding ninety percent (90%) (but not for any period in
excess of 30 consecutive days, more than 110%) of the then Scheduled Targeted Principal Balance.
On the Expected Maturity Date (unless the Termination Date has occurred), at the request of the
Agent, the Borrower will enter into, and maintain until the Termination Date, one or more
Derivatives Agreements with an aggregate notional balance equal to or exceeding ninety percent
(90%) (but not for any period in excess of 30 consecutive days, more than 110%) of the then
outstanding principal amount of the Loans. Such Derivative Agreements shall provide that notional
balances may be adjusted downward from time to time to reflect any prepayments of the Loans.

     (b) If the Borrower, or the Servicer, on behalf of the Borrower, fails to comply with
Section 2.13(a), the Required Lenders shall have the right, in their sole discretion and at
the expense of the Borrower if necessary (as determined in the sole discretion of the Required
Lenders), to direct the Agent to enter into or maintain one or more Derivatives Agreements selected
by the Required Lenders (in their sole discretion) on behalf of the Borrower such that, after
giving effect to such action, the Borrower will be in compliance with Section 2.13(a). In
the event the Required Lenders determine to direct the Agent to enter into or maintain a
Derivatives Agreement on the Borrower’s behalf, the Required Lenders shall promptly send a copy of
any such agreement to the Borrower. Reasonable costs and expenses of the Required Lenders related
to the entry into and maintenance of Derivatives Agreements shall be paid by the Borrower.

50

 

     (c) If, at any time while the Loans or other obligations under the Transaction Documents
remain unpaid, a Derivatives Creditor ceases to be an Eligible Derivatives Creditor, the Borrower
shall within sixty (60) days after it obtains Knowledge of such event, either (i) replace the
non-conforming Derivatives Creditor with an Eligible Derivatives Creditor or (ii) require the
non-conforming Derivatives Creditor to deliver a letter of credit or provide alternative credit
support in order to support its obligations under the Derivatives Agreement, as the Borrower and
such non-conforming Derivatives Creditor may agree, subject to the consent of the Agent and the
prior written confirmation that the Rating Agency Condition has been satisfied.

     (d) All payments received from all such Derivatives Agreements shall be deposited directly
into the Collection Account.

ARTICLE III

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

     SECTION 3.01 Taxes. (a) Payments Net of Certain Taxes. Any and all
payments by the Borrower to or for the account of any Tax Protected Party hereunder or under any
other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present
or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities
with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Tax Protected Party, taxes imposed on its net
income, profits and franchise, branch profits, capital, doing business or net worth taxes imposed
on it, in each case by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Tax Protected Party is
organized, has its applicable lending office or does business (unless such imposition is made by a
jurisdiction other than one where such Tax Protected Party is organized or has its applicable
lending office and is solely on account of such Tax Protected Party being a party to, receiving a
payment or income under, or enforcing, this Agreement or any other Loan Document), or any political
subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, charges,
withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If the Borrower
shall be required by law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to any Tax Protected Party, (i) subject to
clauses (e) and (f) of this Section 3.01, the sum payable shall be
increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions and withholdings (including
deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.01)
such Tax Protected Party receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such
deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and withholdings, (iii) the
Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxation authority or other
authority in accordance with Applicable Law and (iv) the Borrower shall furnish to the Agent, at
the Agent’s Office, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.

     (b) Other Taxes. In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any and all present or
future stamp, documentary or excise taxes or similar levies which arise from any payment made under
this Agreement or any other Loan Document or from the execution or delivery of, or otherwise with
respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as “Other
Taxes”).

51

 

     (c) Additional Taxes. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Tax Protected Party for
the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by
any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 3.01) paid by such Tax Protected
Party and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with
respect thereto within 30 days after receipt of documentation reasonably evidencing the amount and
nature of such payment.

     (d) Tax Forms and Certificates. Each Lender organized under the laws of a
jurisdiction outside the United States (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall, on or prior to the date
of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Lender listed on the signature
pages thereof and on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other
Lender, and from time to time thereafter as required by law on or prior to the expiration of the
form or certificate most recently provided, provide the Borrower and the Agent with true, complete
and correct (i) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, as appropriate, or any successor
form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Lender is entitled to
benefits under an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party which reduces to zero the
rate of withholding tax on payments of interest or certifying that the income receivable pursuant
to this Agreement is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United
States or (ii) any other form or certificate required by any United States taxing authority
(including any certificate required by Sections 871(h) and 881(c) of the Code), certifying that
such Lender is entitled to a complete exemption from tax on payments pursuant to this Agreement or
any of the other Loan Documents. Additionally, if a Lender or Tax Protected Party sells, assigns
or transfers any participation in a Loan to another Person, such Lender or Tax Protected Party
shall provide any new forms required as a result of such sale or transfer (including, if necessary,
Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY).

     (e) Failure to Provide Tax Forms and Certificates. For any period with respect to
which a Lender has failed to provide the Borrower and the Agent with the appropriate form or
certificate in the manner and as prescribed by Section 3.01(d) (unless such failure is due
to a change in treaty, law or regulation occurring subsequent to the date on which a form
originally was required to be provided), neither such Lender nor any related Tax Protected Party
shall be entitled to additional amounts under Section 3.01(a) or indemnification under
Section 3.01(b) with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States or any political
subdivision therein as a result of such failure; provided, however, that should a
Tax Protected Party, which is otherwise exempt from or subject to a reduced rate of withholding
tax, become subject to Taxes because of its or any related Lender’s failure to deliver a form
required to be delivered hereunder, the Borrower shall take such steps as such Lender or Tax
Protected Party shall reasonably request at such Tax Protected Party’s cost to assist such Tax
Protected Party to recover such Taxes.

     (f) Obligations in Respect of Non-U.S. Lenders. The Borrower shall not be required to
indemnify any Non-U.S. Lender or related Tax Protected Party or to pay any additional amounts to
any Non-U.S. Lender or related Tax Protected Party, in respect of United States Federal withholding
tax pursuant to subsections (a) or (b) above to the extent that the obligation to
withhold amounts with respect to United States Federal withholding tax existed on the date such
Non-U.S. Lender became a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of a participant, on the date
such participant acquired its participation interest) or to the extent such obligation to withhold
amounts with respect to United States federal withholding tax arises after such date as a

52

 

result of a change in residence, place of incorporation, principal place of business, or
office or location in which Loans governed by this Agreement are booked or recorded by such Lender
or Tax Protected Party; provided, however, that this subsection (f) shall
not apply (i) to any participant that becomes a participant as a result of an assignment,
participation, transfer or designation made at the request of the Borrower or where a change of
office or location in which Loans governed by this Agreement are booked or recorded is made at the
request of the Borrower and (ii) to the extent the indemnity payment or additional amounts any
participant would be entitled to receive (without regard to this subsection (f)) do not
exceed the indemnity payment or additional amounts that the Person making the assignment,
participation or transfer to such participant would have been entitled to receive in the absence of
such assignment, participation, transfer or designation.

     (g) Mitigation. If the Borrower is required to pay additional amounts to or for the
account of any Tax Protected Party pursuant to this Section 3.01, then such Tax Protected
Party will agree to use reasonable efforts to eliminate or reduce any such additional payment which
may thereafter accrue if such change, in the judgment of such Tax Protected Party, is not otherwise
disadvantageous to such Lender.

     (h) Tax Receipts. Within thirty days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the
Borrower shall, if requested by the Agent, furnish to the Agent the original or a certified copy of
a receipt evidencing such payment (to the extent one is so provided).

     (i) Survival. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the
Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in subsections
(a) through (h) above shall survive the payment in full of principal and interest
hereunder and under any instrument delivered hereunder.

     (j) Contest. If a claim is made against a Tax Protected Party for any Taxes or Other
Taxes (a “Claim”), such Tax Protected Party shall, as promptly as practical after receipt
of a written notification of such Claim, give the Borrower written notification of such Claim;
provided that the failure to give such notice of a timely basis shall not preclude a Claim for
indemnification hereunder. If the Borrower so requests in writing within 30 days after receipt of
such notice, the Tax Protected Party shall, at the Borrower’s expense, take any reasonable action
to contest such Claim (including having the Borrower control the contest of such Claim if allowable
under Applicable Law); provided, however, that the following conditions are met: (i) the contest
will not result in any material danger of the sale, forfeiture or loss of the Collateral or any
interests therein; (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; (iii)
prior to the commencement of any contest, the Borrower shall have acknowledged its liability for
the contested amount (as between it and the Tax Protected Party); and (iv) the Tax Protected Party
shall have received a legal opinion (at the Borrower’s expense) from counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the Tax Protected Party, as the case may be, indicating that a reasonable basis for
such contest exists.

     (k) Refunds. If a Tax Protected Party determines that a refund is due of any Taxes or
Other Taxes in either case from the jurisdiction to which such Taxes or Other Taxes were paid and
which in the Tax Protected Party’s sole discretion is allocable to amounts with respect to which it
has been indemnified by the Borrower hereunder or with respect to which the Borrower

53

 

has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.01, it shall pay over within
the next 30 days the amount of such refund, credit or offset to the Borrower (but only to the
extent of indemnity payments made, or additional payments paid, by the Borrower with respect to the
Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund).

     SECTION 3.02 Illegality. If, on or after the date of this Agreement, the adoption of
any Applicable Law, or any change in any Applicable Law, or any change in the interpretation or
administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged
with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender with any request or
directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or
comparable agency shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Lender to make, maintain or fund any
of its Loans at a rate based upon the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate (such event being hereinafter
referred to as an “Illegality Event”) and such Lender shall so notify the Agent, the Agent
shall forthwith give notice thereof to the other Lenders and the Borrower, whereupon until such
Lender notifies the Borrower and the Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no
longer exist, interest on the Loans of such Lender shall accrue and be payable at the Corporate
Base Rate. If an Illegality Event does not affect all Lenders, the Agent shall make a good faith
effort to cause the Lenders that are not affected by such Illegality Event to purchase the Loans
held by the affected Lenders. The foregoing shall not delay or otherwise affect the Borrower’s
obligation to pay interest at the Corporate Base Rate as provided in this paragraph.

     SECTION 3.03 Increased Costs and Reduced Return. (a) If, on or after the date
hereof, the adoption of or any change in any Applicable Law or in the interpretation or application
thereof applicable to any Tax Protected Party, or compliance by any Tax Protected Party with any
request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other
Governmental Authority, in each case made subsequent to the Effective Date (or, if later, the date
on which such Tax Protected Party becomes a Tax Protected Party):

     (i) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory
loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for
the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition
of funds by, any office of such Tax Protected Party which is not otherwise included in the
determination of the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate hereunder; or

     (ii) shall impose on such Tax Protected Party any other condition;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Tax Protected Party
of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining any Loans or to reduce any amount
receivable hereunder in respect thereof (any such increased cost or reduction hereinafter
referred to as an “Increased Cost”), then, in any such case, upon notice to the
Borrower from such Tax Protected Party, through the Agent, in accordance herewith, the
Borrower shall be obligated to pay such Tax Protected Party, in accordance with Section
2.07(c), any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Tax Protected Party on an
after-tax basis (after taking into account applicable deductions and credits in respect of
the amount indemnified) for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable.

54

 

     (b) If any Tax Protected Party shall have determined that the adoption or the becoming
effective of, or any change in, or any change by any Governmental Authority, central bank or
comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof in the interpretation
or administration of, any Applicable Law, regarding capital adequacy, or compliance by such Tax
Protected Party, or its parent corporation, with any request or directive regarding capital
adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable
agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Tax Protected Party’s
(or parent corporation’s) capital or assets as a consequence of its commitments or obligations
hereunder to a level below that which such Tax Protected Party, or its parent corporation, could
have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, change or compliance (taking into consideration
such Tax Protected Party’s (or parent corporation’s) policies with respect to capital adequacy),
then, upon notice from such Tax Protected Party to the Borrower, the Borrower shall be obligated to
pay to such Tax Protected Party in accordance with Section 2.07(c), such additional amount
or amounts as will compensate such Tax Protected Party on an after-tax basis (after taking into
account applicable deductions and credits in respect of the amount indemnified) for such reduction.
Each determination by any such Tax Protected Party of amounts owing under this Section shall,
absent manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto.

     (c) A certificate of each Tax Protected Party setting forth such amount or amounts as shall be
necessary to compensate such Tax Protected Party or its holding company as specified in
subsection (a) or (b) above, as the case may be, shall be delivered to the Borrower
and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay each Tax Protected Party the
amount shown as due on any such certificate delivered by it on the next succeeding Settlement Date
in accordance with Section 2.07(c).

     (d) Promptly after any Tax Protected Party becomes aware of any circumstance that will, in its
sole judgment, result in a request for increased compensation pursuant to this Section, such Tax
Protected Party shall notify the Borrower thereof. Failure on the part of any Tax Protected Party
so to notify the Borrower or to demand compensation for any increased costs or reduction in amounts
received or receivable or reduction in return on capital with respect to any period shall not
constitute a waiver of such Tax Protected Party’s right to demand compensation with respect to such
period or any other period. The protection of this Section shall be available to each Tax
Protected Party regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the
law, rule, regulation, guideline or other change or condition which shall have occurred or been
imposed.

     SECTION 3.04 Funding Losses. The Borrower shall indemnify each Tax Protected Party
against any loss or reasonable expense (but excluding in any event loss of anticipated profit)
which such Tax Protected Party may sustain or incur as a consequence of (i) any failure by the
Borrower to fulfill on the date of the Borrowing hereunder the applicable conditions set forth in
Article IV, so long as any such failure is not solely due to the failure of the Agent or
any Lender to comply with its obligations hereunder in all material respects, (ii) any failure by
the Borrower to borrow or to prepay any Loan hereunder after irrevocable notice of such Borrowing,
or prepayment has been given pursuant to Section 2.02 or 2.07, as applicable, so
long as any such failure is not solely due to the failure of the Agent or any Lender to comply with
its obligations hereunder in all material respects or (iii) any payment or prepayment of a Loan,

55

 

(including, without limitation, payment or prepayment pursuant to Section 2.08), whether
voluntary or involuntary, pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement or otherwise made on a
date other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, so long as any such
payment, prepayment or conversion is not solely due to the failure of the Agent or any Lender to
comply with its obligations hereunder in all material respects (each such loss or expense, a
“Funding Loss”). Such Funding Losses shall be determined by each Tax Protected Party in
its sole discretion and shall include an amount equal to the excess, if any, as reasonably
determined by such Tax Protected Party, of (i) its cost of obtaining the funds for the Loan being
paid, prepaid or not borrowed (based on the applicable London Interbank Offered Rate), for the
period from the date of such payment, prepayment or failure to borrow to the last day of the then
applicable Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, the Interest Period for such
Loan which would have been applicable to such Loan on the date of such failure to borrow) over (ii)
the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Tax Protected Party) that would be
realized by such Tax Protected Party in reemploying the funds so paid, prepaid or not borrowed or
continued for such period or Interest Period, as the case may be. A certificate of any Tax
Protected Party setting forth any amount or amounts which such Tax Protected Party is entitled to
receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent
manifest error.

therewith.

     SECTION 5.14 Environmental Matters. The Borrower has complied with all applicable
Environmental Laws, and to the Knowledge of the Borrower, each other Facility Party has complied in
all respects with all applicable Environmental Laws, except where the failure to comply could not
reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
The Borrower has not, and to the Knowledge of the Borrower no other Facility Party has, incurred
any liability under any Environmental Laws, received written notice of any actual or claimed or
asserted failure to comply with Environmental Laws which alone, or together with any other such
liability or notices which have been previously or concurrently received, could reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, other than in connection with failures which have
been corrected. No hazardous wastes, hazardous substances, hazardous materials, toxic substances
or toxic pollutants, as those terms are used in any Environmental Laws, are managed on any property

no slogan or other advertising devise, product, process, method, substance, part or other material
now employed, or now contemplated to be employed, by the Borrower infringes upon any rights held by
any other Person. No claim or litigation regarding any of the foregoing is pending or overtly
threatened, and no patent, invention, device, application, principle or any statute, law, rule,
regulation, standard or code is pending or, to the Knowledge of the Borrower, proposed, which, in
either case, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

by or on behalf of the Borrower in connection with any Transaction Document (considered together
with all other such information so furnished) contains any untrue statement of a material fact or
omits any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein,
in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

68

 

     SECTION 5.18 Security Documents. (a) The Security Agreement is effective to create
in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Protected Parties, a legal, valid
and enforceable “first” priority security interest in the Collateral and, when the filings,
recordations or other actions described in Section 3.02 of the Security Agreement and Section 3.06
of the Parent Security Agreement shall have been completed, the Security Agreement shall constitute
a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the grantors

perfected security interest in all the Collateral referred to therein, except as priority may be
affected by Permitted Liens.

equity interests of the Borrower, free and clear of all Liens of every kind, whether absolute,

to providing such information as the Borrower or Servicer is able to obtain from the Agent
and such Lessee through commercially reasonable efforts to enforce applicable provisions of
the applicable Lease), including a complete list showing the make, manufacturer, model, car

funds by the Borrower under this Agreement, the Notes or any other Lease Document or Transaction
Document.

73

 

     SECTION 6.03 Books and Records. The Borrower will keep complete and accurate books
and records of its transactions in accordance with good accounting practices on the basis of GAAP
(including the establishment and maintenance of appropriate reserves) and shall keep full and
accurate books relating to the Collateral, including, but not limited to, the originals of all
documentation with respect thereto (other than original executed copies of the Portfolio Leases
delivered to the Agent or its nominee under the Loan Documents), all credits granted thereon, all
merchandise returned and all other dealings therewith, and the Borrower will make the same
available to the Agent for inspection, at the Borrower’s own cost and expense, as provided in
Section 6.11(a). Upon direction of the Agent, the Borrower shall stamp or otherwise mark
such books and records in such manner as the Agent may reasonably require in order to reflect the
Security Interests. The Borrower will keep, or, with respect to the Portfolio Railcars and the
Portfolio Leases, cause the Servicer to keep, at all times books of record and account adequate to
identify the Portfolio Railcars and Portfolio Leases and to locate the Portfolio Railcars and
Portfolio Leases and, to the extent that the Lessee is required to provide such information
pursuant to the applicable Portfolio Lease, to disclose its use, maintenance, condition and the
income generated to the Borrower through the use thereof, in which full, true and correct entries
will be made.

     SECTION 6.04 ERISA. The Borrower will not maintain or otherwise be or become liable
or contingently liable in respect of any Pension Plan or Multiemployer Plan (as defined under
Section 3(37)(A) of ERISA).

(i) all material taxes, assessments and other governmental charges or levies imposed upon it, or
upon its income or profits, or upon any of its properties, before they shall become delinquent,
(ii) all lawful claims (including claims for labor, materials and supplies) which, if unpaid, might
give rise to a Lien upon any of the Collateral and (iii) all of its other Debt as it shall become
due; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such
tax, assessment, charge, levy, claim or Debt which is being contested or negotiated in good faith
by appropriate proceedings diligently pursued and as to which adequate reserves have been
established in accordance with GAAP, unless the failure to make any such payment could reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

     SECTION 6.06 Insurance; Certain Proceeds; Casualty Proceeds. (a) The Borrower will
at all times maintain in full force and effect insurance in such amounts, covering such risk and
liabilities and with such deductibles or self-insurance retentions as are in accordance with normal
industry practice (or as are otherwise required by the Collateral Documents), and in any event in
compliance with the requirements of Schedule 6.06 hereof. Notwithstanding the generality
of the foregoing, (i) with respect to any Portfolio Railcar subject to a Lease, the Borrower agrees
that it (or the Servicer acting on its behalf) shall enforce the provisions of the Lease against
the applicable Lessee as to all required insurance pursuant to the terms thereof, and (ii) with
respect to any Portfolio Railcar not subject to a Lease, in addition to its covenants with respect
to the Collateral described herein, the Borrower shall comply with the provisions of the Servicing
Documents regarding insurance for the Railcar. The Collateral Agent shall be named as loss payee
or mortgagee, as its interest may appear, with respect to all such property policies and additional
insured with respect to all such other policies (other than workers’ compensation and employee
health policies, if any), and each provider of property damage insurance, by

74

 

endorsement upon the policy or policies issued by it or by independent instruments furnished
to the Collateral Agent, (i) that the insurance carrier shall pay all proceeds otherwise payable to
the Borrower under such policies jointly to the Borrower and the Collateral Agent (which agreement
shall be evidenced by a “standard” or “New York” lender’s loss payable endorsement in the name of
the Collateral Agent), (ii) to waive all claims for insurance premiums against the Collateral Agent
and the Protected Parties, (iii) to provide coverage to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the
Protected Parties regardless of the breach by the Borrower of any warranty or representation made
therein, (iv) that no such policy is subject to co-insurance and (v) that it will give the
Collateral Agent thirty days’ prior written notice before any such policy or policies shall be
materially altered, terminated or canceled, and that no act or default of any Facility Party or any
other Person (other than non payment of premiums) shall affect the rights of the Collateral Agent
or the Protected Parties under such policy or policies. The Borrower assumes all liability and
responsibility in connection with the Portfolio and other property and assets acquired by it and
the liability of the Borrower to pay the Obligations shall in no way be affected or diminished by
reason of the fact that any such property may be lost, destroyed, stolen, damaged or for any reason
whatsoever unavailable to the Borrower.

     (b) Any cash receipts from a Casualty (whether by way of Casualty Proceeds or Lessee indemnity
payments or otherwise) received by either the Borrower or the Collateral Agent shall be deposited
(in the Borrower’s sole discretion) into either (i) the Modifications and Improvements Account to
fund all or a portion of the cost of one or more Required Modifications or Optional Modifications
in respect of existing Railcars of the Borrower, (ii) the Substitution Account to fund the
acquisition of Qualified Replacement Railcars or (iii) the Collection Account for application as
Available Collections and applied pursuant to Section 2.07(c)(i) or Section
2.07(c)(ii), as applicable (except for (x) Excepted Payments, which shall be payable to the
Persons for whose benefit any such payment is made and (y) proceeds from the sale of a Railcar
subject to a Casualty Event, which shall be applied in the same manner as Net Cash Proceeds). At
any time in its discretion within 180 days of deposit into the Modifications and Improvements
Account or Substitution Account, as the case may be, the Borrower may also elect to transfer
amounts so deposited in the Modifications and Improvements Account (and not otherwise applied) or
Substitution Account (and not otherwise applied) into the Collection Account for application as
Available Collections for the Measuring Period in which such transfer is made. In any other case,
any such amounts in the Modifications and Improvements Account (and not otherwise applied) or
Substitution Account (and not otherwise applied) shall be transferred to the Collection Account for
application as Available Collections on the next Settlement Date following the 181st day following
their deposit. Any insurance proceeds of a Casualty with respect to a Portfolio Railcar or Lessee
indemnity payments in connection with a Casualty with respect to a Portfolio Railcar received by
TILC or an Affiliate of TILC shall be promptly paid by TILC or such Affiliate of TILC to the
Borrower for application in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this paragraph
(b).

     Upon the request of the Collateral Agent from time to time, the Borrower will promptly and
duly execute and deliver any and all such further instruments and documents as may be specified in
such request which are reasonably necessary to perfect, preserve or protect the security interests
created or intended to be created for the Replacement Railcars referred to herein, or to establish
that the Borrower has title to such Railcars.

75

 

     (c) The Borrower shall not operate any Portfolio Railcar and will prohibit each Lessee of any
Portfolio Railcar to operate such Portfolio Railcar in violation of any provision of any insurance
policy in effect with respect to such Railcar or in any jurisdiction where all of the insurance
required hereunder shall not remain in full force and effect or in violation of any law, treaty,
statute, rule, directive, regulation or order of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction
over such Portfolio Railcar or in violation of any applicable certificate, license or registration
relating to such Portfolio Railcar issued by any such Governmental Authority.

     (d) In connection with the covenants set forth in this Section 6.06, it is understood
and agreed that:

     (i) none of the Collateral Agent, the Agent, the Lenders or their respective agents or
employees shall be liable for any loss or damage insured by the insurance policies required
to be maintained under this Section 6.06, it being understood that (A) the Borrower
shall look solely to its insurance companies or any other parties other than the aforesaid
parties for the recovery of such loss or damage and (B) such insurance companies shall have
no rights of subrogation against the Collateral Agent, the Agent, the Lenders or their
agents or employees; provided, however, that if the insurance policies do
not provide waiver of subrogation rights against such parties, as required above, then the
Borrower hereby agrees to waive its right of recovery, if any, against the Collateral Agent,
the Agent, the Lenders and their agents and employees, to the extent permitted by law;

     (ii) the Borrower will permit an insurance consultant retained by the Agent, at the
expense of the Borrower, to review from time to time the insurance policies maintained by or
on behalf of the Borrower annually or upon the occurrence of an Event of Default; and

     (iii) the Agent shall have the right from time to time to require the Borrower to keep
other insurance in such form and amount as the Agent may reasonably request;
provided that such insurance shall be obtainable on commercially reasonable terms;
and provided, further, that the designation of any form, type or amount of
insurance coverage by the Agent under this Section 6.06 shall in no event be deemed
a representation, warranty or advice by the Agent that such insurance is adequate for the
purposes of the business of the Borrower or the protection of its properties.

     SECTION 6.07 Operation, Use and Maintenance. (a) Operation and Use. The
Borrower will and will require each Lessee to use the Portfolio Railcars only for lawful purposes
and shall use and operate and require each Lessee to use and operate the Portfolio Railcars in
compliance in all material respects with Applicable Law, except for so long as the Borrower or a
Lessee is contesting in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted the validity or
application of such Applicable Law in any reasonable manner. The Portfolio Railcars may not be
located or used in any country other than the United States, Canada or Mexico.

     (b) Maintenance. The Borrower will or will require each Lessee to keep, repair and
maintain the Portfolio Railcars (i) in good order and operating condition according to industry
practice for Railcars of similar age and vintage, ordinary wear and tear excepted, (ii) in

76

 

compliance in all material respects with Applicable Law, except for so long as the Borrower or
a Lessee is contesting in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted the validity
or application of such Applicable Law in any reasonable manner, (iii) suitable for use in
interchange in accordance with the Interchange Rules and (iv) with respect to Portfolio Railcars
not subject to a Lease, at least as well in all material respects as it would for other similar
equipment owned, operated or serviced by the Servicer. In addition to (but without limitation of)
the foregoing obligation of the Borrower, with respect to any Portfolio Railcar subject to a Lease,
the Borrower will use reasonable commercial efforts to cause the Lessee of such Railcar to comply
with the maintenance requirements set forth in such Leases.

     (c) Identification Numbers. (i) The Borrower shall cause each Portfolio Railcar to
be numbered with its reporting mark as shown on the Bill of Sale under which such Portfolio Railcar
was delivered to the Borrower, and from and after such date keep and maintain, plainly, distinctly,
permanently and conspicuously marked by a plate or stencil printed in contrasting colors upon each
side of each such Portfolio Railcar, in letters not less than one inch in height, a legend
substantially as follows:

“OWNERSHIP SUBJECT TO A SECURITY AGREEMENT

FILED WITH THE SURFACE TRANSPORTATION BOARD”

with appropriate changes thereof and additions thereto as may be required by law in order to
protect the Collateral Agent’s right, title and interest in and to such Portfolio Railcars, its
rights under the Security Agreement and the rights of the Agent and the other Protected Parties.

     (ii) The Borrower may change or permit to be changed the identifying number of any
Portfolio Railcar in accordance with its or the Servicer’s normal business practices at the
time applied in a nondiscriminatory manner. Concurrently with the delivery of each Monthly
Report or promptly upon request of the Collateral Agent if there exists an Event of Default,
the Borrower shall deliver to the Collateral Agent a list of the identifying numbers of all
Portfolio Railcars that have been changed within the period covered by such Monthly Report
and prior thereto to the extent not previously disclosed by the Borrower and evidence of the
filing, recording or depositing in such public offices where the Security Agreement (or
memoranda or notices thereof) have been filed, recorded or deposited reflecting any changes
in identifying numbers which have occurred within such period and prior thereto to the
extent not previously disclosed by the Borrower as may be necessary to preserve and perfect
the interest of the Collateral Agent and the Lenders in the Portfolio Railcars whose
identifying numbers have changed.

     (d) Insignia. Except as provided in Section 6.07(c), the Borrower will not
allow the name of any Person to be placed on any Railcar as a designation that might be interpreted
as a claim of ownership; provided, however, that the Borrower may permit any of the
Portfolio Railcars to be lettered with the names, trademarks, initials or other insignia
customarily used by the Borrower or its Affiliates (including the Marks Company), or any Lessee or
its Affiliates, on railroad equipment used or leased by such Person of the same or a similar type
for convenience of identification of its right to use such Portfolio Railcar under any applicable
Lease, and any of the Portfolio Railcars may be lettered in an appropriate manner for convenience
of identification of the interest of the Borrower or any Lessee therein.

77

 

     SECTION 6.08 Replacement of Parts; Modifications and Improvements. (a)
Replacement of Parts. The Borrower, at its sole cost and expense (whether from the
Maintenance Reserve Account, the Operating Expense Account or otherwise), will as promptly as
practicable replace all Parts with respect to Portfolio Railcars that are not then subject to a
Lease or are required to be maintained by the Borrower pursuant to a Lease that may from time to
time become worn out, obsolete, lost, stolen, destroyed, seized, confiscated, damaged beyond repair
or permanently rendered unfit for use for any reason whatsoever. In addition, in the course of
maintenance, service, repair, overhaul or testing, the Borrower, at its sole cost and expense, may
remove any Part, whether or not worn out, obsolete, lost, stolen, destroyed, seized, confiscated,
damaged beyond repair or permanently rendered unfit for use. All replacement Parts shall be
selected and installed in accordance with the Borrower’s or the Servicer’s normal business
practices at that time applied in a nondiscriminatory manner, and shall be free and clear of all
Liens except Permitted Liens and shall be in good operating condition.

     (b) Lease Required Modifications and Improvements. Subject to clause (e) of
this Section 6.08, the Borrower shall make or cause to be made such material modifications
and improvements to each Portfolio Railcar to the extent required of the Borrower by the terms of
the applicable Lease (each occurrence, a “Lease Required Modification).

     (c) Required Modifications and Improvements. Subject to clause (e) of
this Section 6.08, the Borrower shall in the event (i) any Governmental Authority or any
Applicable Law requires as a condition of continued use or operation of any Portfolio Railcar that
such Portfolio Railcar be altered or modified or (ii) any Administrative Agency determines that any
Portfolio Railcar may be in an unsafe operating condition and as a result the Borrower determines
that such Portfolio Railcar must be altered or modified (each occurrence under (i) and (ii), a
“Required Modification”), the Borrower agrees to make or have made such Required
Modification in a timely manner; provided that, the Borrower may, in good faith and by
appropriate proceedings diligently conducted, contest the validity or application of any such law,
regulation, requirement or rule in any reasonable manner which does not materially interfere with
the use, possession, operation or return of any Portfolio Railcar or materially adversely affect
the rights or interests of the Agent, Collateral Agent or the other Protected Parties in the
Portfolio Railcars or under any Loan Document or otherwise expose the Borrower to criminal or
material financial sanctions. Promptly after the Borrower becomes aware of the requirement to make
a Required Modification, the Borrower shall notify the Agent thereof, which notice shall also set
forth the time period for the making of such Required Modification and the Borrower’s reasonable
estimate of the cost thereof. If the Borrower (after consultation with the Servicer) believes that
any Required Modification to either an individual Portfolio Railcar or an aggregate of Portfolio
Railcars would be economically impractical, the Borrower shall provide written notice to the Agent
that such Required Modification is economically impractical, and shall treat such Portfolio Railcar
as if an Event of Loss had occurred as of the date of such written notice with respect to such
Portfolio Railcar. In such event the provisions of the Loan Agreement and the Servicing Agreement
with respect to Events of Loss shall apply with respect to such Portfolio Railcar. In reaching any
decision as to whether a Required Modification is economically impractical, the Borrower shall
assess the cost and timing of the Required Modification, the anticipated revenues and other sources
of funds which would be available to the Company to fund such costs, the requirements of the Loan
Agreement and such other factors as the Borrower

78

 

considers necessary or appropriate and shall provide a report to the Agent, regarding such
assessment.

     (d) Optional Modifications and Improvements. The Borrower may, upon consent of the
Agent, modify, alter or improve any Portfolio Railcar in a manner which is not a Required
Modification, including any Portfolio Railcar not then under a Lease (“Optional
Modification”), if the Borrower concludes in good faith that the proposed Optional Modification
is likely to enhance the marketability of the Portfolio Railcar (or such Optional Modification is
requested by a Lessee); provided that Optional Modifications may be funded only from (i)
capital contributions made by TILC to the Borrower (for the avoidance of doubt, such capital
contributions are permitted but not required under this Agreement), (ii) distributions which would
otherwise be made to or at the direction of the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.07(c)(i) or
Section 2.07(c)(ii) or (iii) proceeds of a Permitted Discretionary Sale, Event of Loss or
Casualty but only to the extent for purposes of this clause (iii) that such
modifications increase the fair market value (determined without regard to any previously existing
Railcar defects) of such Railcar as certified by the Borrower, and no Optional Modification shall
diminish the fair market value, utility, residual value or remaining economic useful life of such
Portfolio Railcar below the fair market value, utility, residual value or remaining economic useful
life thereof immediately prior to such Optional Modification, in more than a de minimis respect.

     (e) Modification Costs. Any Lease Required Modification or Required Modification to a
Railcar in excess of 5% of such Railcar’s then Original Value shall not be funded from any
Account without the prior written consent of the Agent.

     SECTION 6.09 Replacement of Railcars; Substitution Account. (a) Disposition
Proceeds. The Borrower, as soon as practicable and in any event within 180 days of the date in
which the Net Cash Proceeds of an Asset Disposition are received by the Borrower, will deposit all
such Net Cash Proceeds into the Net Cash Proceeds Account to be applied in the manner and order of
priority set forth in Section 2.07(c)(iii), or alternatively, (i) in the case of an Asset
Disposition constituting an Event of Loss or Condemnation, unless the Borrower intends to use the
proceeds of such Asset Dispostion to acquire Qualifying Replacement Railcars or to prepay the
Loans, deposit such Net Cash Proceeds into the Modifications and Improvements Account to fund
Optional Modifications in accordance with Section 6.09(b) below or (ii) in the case of an
Asset Disposition constituting a Permitted Discretionary Sale, deposit such Net Cash Proceeds into
the Substitution Account to fund the acquisition cost of the Qualifying Replacement Railcars
previously identified by the Borrower or the Servicer on the applicable Qualifying Replacement
Railcar Certificate (provided such Railcars remain commercially available for acquisition) in
accordance with Section 6.09(c) below.

     (b) Revinvestment of Proceeds from an Event of Loss or Condemnation. The Borrower may
reinvest proceeds from an Event of Loss or Condemnation that have been deposited into the
Modifications and Improvements Account as described above to fund all or a portion of the cost of
one or more Required Modifications or Optional Modifications in respect of existing Railcars of the
Borrower. At any time in its discretion within 180 days of deposit into the Modifications and
Improvements Account, the Borrower may also elect to transfer amounts so deposited in the
Modifications and Improvements Account (and not otherwise applied) into the Net Cash Proceeds
Account for application as Net Cash Proceeds for the Measuring Period in

79

 

which such transfer is made. In any other case, any such amounts in the Modifications and
Improvements Account (and not otherwise applied) shall be transferred to the Net Cash Proceeds
Account for application as Net Cash Proceeds on the next Settlement Date following the 181st day
following their deposit.

     (c) Revinvestment of Sale/Disposition Proceeds in Replacement Railcars. In the event
the Borrower intends to use the proceeds of a Permitted Discretionary Sale to acquire Qualifying
Replacement Railcars, the Borrower prior to such contemplated Permitted Discretionary Sale shall
identify Qualifying Replacement Railcars to replace the Portfolio Railcars subject to the
contemplated Permitted Discretionary Sale, such replacement expected to occur within 30 days of
such Permitted Discretionary Sale and shall deliver to the Agent a Qualifying Replacement Railcar
Certificate prior to such Permitted Discretionary Sale. All Railcars that replace Portfolio
Railcars subject to a Permitted Discretionary Sale shall be Qualifying Replacement Railcars in
order to be Portfolio Railcars. Upon acquisition, such Replacement Railcars (and any related
Leases) will become subject to the lien of the Security Agreement (and related Transaction
Documents). To the extent such proceeds are not so used to acquire Qualifying Replacement Railcars
within 180 days of the date of deposit into the Substitution Account, such amounts shall be
transferred to the Net Cash Proceeds Account on the next Settlement Date following the 181st day
following their deposit for application as Net Cash Proceeds for the Measuring Period in which such
transfer is made.

     SECTION 6.10 Use of Proceeds. The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Loans solely
for the purposes set forth in Section 5.13.

     SECTION 6.11 Audits/Inspections/Appraisals. (a) Audits and Inspections.
The Collateral Agent and the Agent, together with their respective designated representatives,
including independent accountants, agents, employees, attorneys and appraisers, shall have the
right to (i) inspect all documents of the Borrower and the Servicer (the “Related
Documents”), including without limitation all leases, insurance policies, warranties or other
agreements relating to the Portfolio Railcars and the other Collateral (during such period of time
when such Portfolio Railcar or other Collateral, as the case may be, was part of the Portfolio)
(each such inspection, a “Related Document Inspection”); (ii) inspect and audit each of the
Company’s and the Servicer’s books, records and databases (which shall include reasonable access
electronic copies of the Borrower’s and the Servicer’s records to the extent necessary to determine
compliance with the Transaction Documents) (collectively, the “Books and Records”) with
respect to the Portfolio Railcars and the other Collateral and Related Documents (including without
limitation data supporting all reporting requirements under the Transaction Documents) (each such
inspection, a “Books and Records Inspection”); (iii) discuss (A) the affairs, finances and
accounts of the Company and the Servicer and (B) the Portfolio Railcars and the other Collateral,
the Related Documents and the Books and Records, in each case with the principal executive officer
and the principal financial officer of each of the Company and the Servicer, as applicable (the
foregoing clauses (A) and (B), a “Company Inspection”); (iv) conduct evaluations and
appraisals of, subject to the provisions of Section 6.11(b) below in the case of the
Portfolio Railcars, the assets included in the Collateral; and (v) subject to restrictions and
procedures on inspection of the Portfolio Railcars in any applicable Lease, conduct a physical
inspection of any Portfolio Railcar or otherwise obtain a Physical Inspection Report with respect
thereto at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (each
such inspection, a “Physical

80

 

Inspection”, and together with each other inspection described in (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv)
above, collectively, the “Inspections”); provided, however, Related
Documents and Books and Records shall not include the Servicer’s customer list or any other
information that the Servicer reasonably determines is of a proprietary nature, unless failure to
provide such information would cause either the Servicer or the Borrower to breach its respective
obligations under any of the Transaction Documents. All Inspections shall be conducted upon
reasonable request and with at least five (5) Business Days’ notice from the Agent to the Company
(with respect to Inspections of the Company) and the Servicer (with respect to inspections of the
Company or the Servicer) and shall be conducted during normal business hours, be subject to the
Company’s and the Servicer’s customary security procedures, if any, and not unreasonably disrupt
the Company’s or the Servicer’s business. Without prejudice to the right to conduct Inspections,
all parties granted inspection rights hereunder shall confer with a view toward coordinating their
conduct with respect to Inspections in order to minimize the costs thereof and business disruption
attendant thereto.

     (b) Appraisals. The Borrower (at its sole cost and expense) at the request of the
Agent shall provide an Independent Appraisal (based upon a “desktop appraisal”) with respect to all
Portfolio Railcars (i) if a Monthly Utilization Event has occurred and is continuing (but not more
frequently than once during any six consecutive months), (ii) upon the fifth (5th)
anniversary of the Closing Date and (iii) upon the Term Maturity Date and at any time thereafter
(but in the case of this clause (iii), not more frequently than once every two
years). The Borrower or the Servicer also may at any time and from time to time obtain an
appraisal of any Railcar (in addition to the Independent Appraisal required pursuant to this
Section 6.11(b)) at its own expense. Each Independent Appraisal delivered pursuant to this
Section 6.11(b) shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent;
provided that with respect to any Railcar, when appropriate and acceptable to the Agent,
any such Independent Appraisal may be in the form of a letter from an Independent Appraiser
confirming the Independent Appraisal previously delivered by such Independent Appraiser with
respect to such Railcar.

     SECTION 6.12 Stamp Tax. If any jurisdiction in which any Portfolio Railcar is
registered, operated or located, from time to time, requires the payment of a stamp tax, fee or its
equivalent in order to perfect the Collateral Agent’s security interest in such Railcar or
otherwise to allow the Agent to realize upon the Collateral, the Borrower shall pay the amount of
such stamp tax, fee or its equivalent in accordance with Section 2.07(c).

     SECTION 6.13 Follow-On Leases. The Borrower will not enter into any Portfolio Lease
which was not in place as of the Closing Date (and described in the applicable Notice of Borrowing)
(a “Follow-On Lease”) unless the conditions precedent described in paragraphs (b),
(c), (d), (f), (h), (i), (m)(ii), (o) and
(q) of Section 4.02 hereof have been satisfied with respect to such Follow-On
Lease.

     SECTION 6.14 Accounts. (a) On or prior to the date hereof, the Borrower shall cause
to be established one or more accounts with the Depositary pursuant to the Depository Agreement in
the name of the Borrower. The Borrower shall cause the Depositary to create a Collection Account,
a Liquidity Reserve Account, a Maintenance Reserve Account, a Security Deposits Account, an
Operating Expenses Account, a Modifications and Improvements Account, a Net Cash Proceeds Account
and a Substitution Account, in each case in accordance with the

81

 

terms of the Depository Agreement. The Agent shall cause the Depositary to create a
Prefunding Account in accordance with the terms of the Depository Agreement. The Borrower shall
notify (and the Borrower hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent so to notify), in each case
following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, each Lessee and other
account debtors of the Borrower in writing that each Lease and other accounts receivable of the
Borrowers has been assigned to the Collateral Agent under the Loan Documents for the benefit of the
Protected Parties. The Borrower also shall notify and instruct each Lessee that all payments due
or to become due under each Portfolio Lease (except for Excepted Payments (which shall be payable
to the Persons for whose benefit any such payment is made)) or otherwise in respect of amounts and
other receivables of the Borrower are to be made directly to the Customer Payments Account.

     (b) Any amounts from time to time held in the Collection Account, the Maintenance Reserve
Account, the Modifications and Improvements Account, Security Deposits Account, Operating Expenses
Account, the Liquidity Reserve Account and the Substitution Account may be invested in Cash
Equivalents (subject to the provisions of the Depository Agreement), at the Borrower’s risk as
directed in writing by the Borrower, until the application thereof in accordance with this
Agreement. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Agent may
direct by notice the Depositary to pay to the Agent the amount specified in such notice from the
Account(s) specified in such notice, and the Agent shall apply such amounts received from the
Depositary to the repayment of the Obligations in accordance with the applicable provisions of
Section 2.07(c).

     (c) Subject to the provisions of the Depository Agreement, the Agent may at any time and from
time to time in its sole discretion (and, to the extent such application would have the effect of
curing a Default under Section 9.01(a) hereof or if the Loans have become or been declared
immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 9.02, shall) instruct the Depositary to pay
into the Collection Account the amounts on deposit in the Liquidity Reserve Account if and to the
extent the amounts in the Collection Account on any Settlement Date would be insufficient to pay in
full the items described in clauses first, second, third,
fourth and fifth of Section 2.07(c)(i) or clauses first,
second, third, fourth and fifth of Section 2.07(c)(ii), as
the case may be; provided that, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and then
be continuing, (i) the Agent shall have consulted with the Borrower prior to giving such
instruction and (ii) if and to the extent determined by the Agent and the Borrower that a reserve
is required to be held in the Accounts in respect of anticipated claims by a Lessee for payment of
deposit, maintenance reserves or insurance or indemnity payments, such reserve shall be retained in
the Accounts.

     (d) The Borrower hereby agrees to endeavor to transfer all Available Collections from the
Customer Payments Account to the Collections Account within three (3) Business Days of deposit in
the Customer Payments Account but in no event later than six (6) Business Days of deposit of any
Available Collections in the Customer Payments Account, and shall provide timely written notice
thereof (which notice may be made by facsimile or electronic mail) to the Agent, in each case in
accordance with the Customer Collections Account Administration Agreement.

     SECTION 6.15 Servicer. The Borrower and the Agent further agree that, upon the
occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, any event set forth in clauses (a) through (k)

82

 

of Section 7.02 of the Servicing Agreement, a Servicer Replacement Event or as otherwise
provided in the Servicing Documents, the Agent (acting at the direction of the Supermajority
Lenders), without the consent or action of or by any Facility Party, shall automatically succeed to
all of the Borrower’s rights and powers under the Servicing Documents, and shall succeed to any of
the Borrower’s rights and powers to remove the Servicer, terminate any Servicing Document(s),
appoint a new Servicer that is reasonably satisfactory to both the Agent and the Supermajority
Lenders, in accordance with Section 7.04 of the Servicing Agreement, and enter into new Servicing
Document(s) with such new Servicer; provided that, as a condition precedent to the Agent removing
and replacing the Servicer, the Agent shall request from each Rating Agency, a determination
whether, as a result of such removal or replacement, it would cause the rating of the Loans to be
reduced or withdrawn.

     SECTION 6.16 Action after an Event of Default. Following the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default, the Borrower shall, in connection with taking any action or
exercising any rights or remedies under any Lease Document or Servicing Document, comply in good
faith with all requests from the Agent and Collateral Agent (it being understood that the Borrower
will not be considered in breach of this Section 6.16 or any other provision of any
Transaction Document by virtue of complying or failing to comply with such requests).

     SECTION 6.17 Required Asset Dispositions. At any time and from time to time
following the occurrence of the Term Maturity Date, the Borrower shall comply in good faith with
all requests from the Collateral Agent to consummate Railcar sales.

hereunder or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower may elect, in its
reasonable discretion and upon written notice to the Agent, to give such waiver (or permit such
waiver), so long as such waiver is limited to the particular facts giving rise to such Lease
Default or Lease Event of Default and does not prejudice the Borrower’s (or Collateral Agent’s, by
assignment) rights under the relevant Lease to exercise remedies with respect to any other or
future Lease Defaults or Lease Events of Default; provided, further, that any such

     SECTION 7.17 Independence of Covenants. All covenants contained herein shall be
given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of
such covenants, the fact that such action or condition would be permitted by an exception to, or
otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a

action contrary to any Lessee’s or any permitted sublessee’s right to quiet enjoyment of, and the
continuing possession, use and operation of, the relevant Portfolio Railcar during the term of such

in which such Lender holds its investment in such Loans or Notes) to any Person unless such Person
shall (A) make all warranties and representations of such Lender contained in Section 8.01

scheduled maturity, acceleration or otherwise) of any principal of or any interest on the
Loans (other than to the extent there are insufficient Available Collections to pay
principal pursuant to Section 2.07(c)(i) or Section 2.07(c)(ii) or to the
extent there are insufficient Net Cash Proceeds attributable to an Event of Loss or
attributable to a sale of a Railcar subject to a Casualty (in the event the Borrower or
Servicer determines that repairs to such Railcar subject to a Casualty are economically
impractical) to pay principal pursuant to Section 2.07(c)(iii) or with respect to
interest calculated by

87

 

reference to the Default Margin or Step-Up Yield), and such payment is not received
within one Business Day of the due date therefor, or any default shall occur in the payment
when due of any fees or other amounts owing to the Lenders under any Loan Document or in
connection herewith or therewith (in any case, other than with respect to interest
calculated by reference to the Default Margin), which default shall continue for 15 days
after notice thereof has been given to the Borrower and the Servicer by the Agent;
provided, however, in the case of any payment required to be made pursuant
to Section 2.06(a), a default in respect of such payment shall occur on such date as
provided for in Section 9.01(i).

     (b) Principal Payment Deficiency. There shall occur a Principal Payment
Deficiency Event.

     (c) Representations. Any representation, warranty or statement made or deemed
to be made by the Borrower or the Servicer in any Transaction Document, or in any statement
or certificate delivered or required to be delivered pursuant hereto or thereto shall prove
untrue or incorrect in any material respect on the date as of which it was made or deemed to
have been made and if capable of being cured shall not have been cured within fifteen days
after the earlier of an executive officer of the Borrower and/or Servicer, as the case may
be, becoming aware of such untruth or notice thereof given by the Agent to the Borrower
and/or Servicer, as the case may be; provided, that with respect to any of the foregoing as
to which rescission of transfer is a remedy available under Section 4.9 of any Purchase and
Sale Agreement, no Event of Default shall exist as a result of such event unless and until
there has been a failure by the Seller under any such Purchase and Sale Agreement to make
the rescission payment described in said Section 4.9.

     (d) Covenants. The Borrower shall:

     (i) default in the due performance or observance by it of any term, covenant or

or agreement contained in Section 6.17 and such default shall continue
unremedied on the six (6) month anniversary date of the date in which the Agent

     (iv) default in the due performance or observance by it of any term, covenant
or agreement contained in Article VI (other than those referred to in
subsections (a), (b), (c), (d)(i) , (d)(ii)
or (d)(iii) of this Section 9.01) and such default shall continue
unremedied for a period of 15 days after the earlier of an executive officer of the
Borrower or the Servicer becoming aware of such default

88

 

or notice thereof given by the Agent to the Borrower and/or the Servicer, as
the case may be; or

     (v) default in the due performance or observance by it of any term, covenant or
agreement (other than those referred to in subsections (a), (b),
(c) or (d)(i), (d)(ii) , (d)(iii) or (d)(iv) of this
Section 9.01) contained in this Agreement and such default shall continue
unremedied for a period of 30 days after the earlier of an executive officer of the
Borrower or Servicer becoming aware of such default or notice thereof given by the
Agent to the Borrower and/or the Servicer, as the case may be.

     (e) Loan Documents. Except pursuant to the terms thereof, any Loan Document

to which the Borrower is an Affected Party (as so defined), and, in either event, the
Derivatives Termination Value owed by the Borrower as a result thereof is greater than
$1,000,000.

     (g) Insolvency Events. (i) The Borrower shall commence a voluntary case or
other proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to itself
or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in
effect or seeking the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other
similar official of it or any substantial part of its property, or shall consent to any such
relief or to the appointment of or taking possession by any such official in an involuntary
case or other proceeding commenced against it, or shall make a general assignment for the
benefit of creditors, or shall fail generally to pay its debts as they become due, or shall
take any corporate action to authorize any of the foregoing or (ii) an involuntary case or
other proceeding shall be commenced against the Borrower seeking liquidation, reorganization
or other relief with respect to it or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other
similar law now or hereafter in effect or seeking the appointment of a trustee, receiver,
liquidator, custodian or other similar official of it or any substantial part of its
property, and such involuntary case or other proceeding shall remain undismissed and
unstayed for a period of 60 days, or any order for relief shall be entered against the
Borrower under the federal bankruptcy laws as now or hereafter in effect.

     (h) Judgments. One or more judgments, orders, decrees or arbitration awards is

coverage), as to any single or related series of transactions, incidents or conditions, of
$10,000,000 or more, and the same shall remain undischarged, unvacated and unstayed pending
appeal for a period of 30 days during which execution shall not be effectively

89

 

stayed, or any action shall be legally taken by a judgment creditor to attach or levy
upon any assets of the Borrower to enforce any such judgment or the Borrower shall enter
into any agreement to settle or compromise any pending or threatened litigation, as to any
single or related series of claims, involving payment of $10,000,000 or more by the
Borrower, or any non-monetary judgment, order or decree is entered against the Borrower
which has or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and there shall
be any period of 30 consecutive days during which a stay of enforcement of such judgment or
order, by reason of a pending appeal or otherwise, shall not be in effect.

     (i) Required Asset Disposition. At any time and from time to time following
the occurrence of the Term Maturity Date, the Borrower’s failure to consummate Railcar sales
and to repay the outstanding principal amount of the Loans in an amount equal to the
aggregate of the Allocable Debt for each Railcar so requested to be sold (plus interest

such sales.

     (j) Ownership. There shall occur a Change of Control.

     SECTION 9.02 Acceleration; Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, and
at any time thereafter unless and until such Event of Default has been waived in writing by the
Supermajority Lenders (or all of the Lenders as may be required pursuant to Section 11.03),
the Collateral Agent, or the Agent upon the request and written direction of the Required Lenders,
shall by written notice to the Borrower, take any of the following actions without prejudice to the
rights of the Collateral Agent, the Agent or any Lender to enforce its claims against the Borrower
except as otherwise specifically provided for herein:

     (a) Acceleration of Loans. Declare the unpaid principal of and any accrued interest
in respect of all Loans and any and all other indebtedness or obligations of any and every kind
owing by the Borrower to any of the Lenders hereunder to be due whereupon the same shall be
immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all
of which are hereby waived by the Borrower.

     (b) Enforcement of Rights. Enforce any and all rights and interests created and
existing under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, directing the Collateral Agent to
enforce any and all rights and remedies existing under the Collateral Documents and all rights of
set-off.

     (c) Payment Notice/Lessor Rights Notice. Deliver the Payment Notice/Lessor Rights
Notice to the applicable Lessees with respect to any or all of the Portfolio Leases.

     (d) Six Month Anniversary of Term Maturity Date. At any time and from time to time
following the occurrence of the six (6) month anniversary of the date in which the Collateral Agent
first gave notice to the Borrower to consummate Railcar sales pursuant to Section 2.06(a),
if the outstanding principal balance of the Loans is greater than zero then the Collateral
Agent (at the written direction of the Agent and the Required Lenders, which direction shall
specify the manner in which such Collateral shall be sold as well as the amount), in addition to
and without

90

 

limiting any other remedies that may be available to the Collateral Agent under the Loan
Documents, and without any action or consent of the Borrower, may sell or cause to be sold all or
any part of the Collateral in the amount and in the manner determined by the Agent and the Required
Lenders, and the Net Cash Proceeds of such sale or sales shall be applied in accordance with
Section 2.07(c)(iii).

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default specified in Section 9.01(g)
shall occur, then all Loans, all accrued interest in respect thereof and all accrued and unpaid
fees and other indebtedness or obligations owing to the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents shall immediately become due and payable without the giving of any notice or other action
by the Collateral Agent, the Agent or the Lenders, which notice or other action is expressly waived
by the Borrower.

     Notwithstanding the fact that enforcement powers reside primarily with the Collateral Agent
and the Agent, each Lender has, to the extent permitted by law, a separate right of payment and
shall be considered a separate “creditor” holding a separate “claim” within the meaning of Section
101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code or any other insolvency statute.

     In case any one or more of the covenants and/or agreements set forth in this Agreement or any
other Loan Document shall have been breached by the Borrower, then the Agent and the Collateral
Agent may proceed to protect and enforce the Lenders’ rights by suit in equity and by action at
law, including an action for damages as a result of any such breach or an action for specific
performance of any such covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or such other Loan
Document. Without limitation of the foregoing, the Borrower agrees that failure to comply with any
of the covenants contained herein may cause irreparable harm and that specific performance shall be
available as a remedy in the event of any breach thereof. The Agent and Collateral Agent, as the
case may be, acting pursuant to this paragraph shall be indemnified by the Borrower against all
liability, loss or damage, together with all reasonable costs and expenses related thereto
(including reasonable legal and accounting fees and expenses) in accordance with Section
11.05.

     In the event a required rescission payment is received in the Collection Account, then the
Collateral Agent agrees to release to the Borrower, free and clear of the lien of the Security
Agreement, the relevant Lease(s) and Railcar(s) the subject of such rescission payment, to enable
the Borrower to comply with its obligation to return such assets to the Seller as described in
Section 4.9 of the Purchase and Sale Agreement.

     SECTION 9.03 Priority of Security Interests. Notwithstanding anything contrary
contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Borrower, the Collateral Agent, the
Agent and each other Protected Parties (for purposes of this Section 9.03, the term
“Protected Parties” shall not included the Servicer) acknowledge and agree that any Liens on the
Collateral regardless of how or when acquired, whether by grant, statute, operation of law,
subrogation, purchase money obligations or otherwise that are granted to or held by, the Lenders,
other Protected Parties or the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Lenders and such Protected
Parties, shall be a “first” priority security interest and shall be senior to all other security
interests. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement (including the Lien priorities
set forth herein), all proceeds from Collateral shall be applied against all or any part of the

91

 

Obligations as set forth in Section 2.07(c)(i), Section 2.07(c)(ii) or
Section 2.07(c)(iii), as applicable.

ARTICLE X

AGENCY PROVISIONS

     SECTION 10.01 Appointment; Authorization. (a) Appointment. Each Lender
hereby designates and appoints DVB Bank AG, as Agent of such Lender to act as specified herein and
in the other Loan Documents, and each such Lender hereby authorizes the Agent, as the agent for
such Lender, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated by
the terms hereof and of the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably
incidental thereto, including but not limited to the appointing of the Collateral Agent under the
Security Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere herein and in the
other Loan Documents, the Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those
expressly set forth herein and therein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no
implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read
into this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or shall otherwise exist against the Agent.
In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the
Agent shall act solely as an agent of the Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to
have assumed any obligation or relationship of agency or trust with or for the Borrower. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing two sentences, the use of the term “agent” herein and in
the other Loan Documents with reference to the Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or
other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any Applicable Law.
Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or
reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. The
provisions of this Article X (other than Section 10.09) are solely for the benefit
of the Agent and the Lenders, and neither the Borrower nor the Collateral Agent shall have any
rights as a third party beneficiary of the provisions hereof (other than Section 10.09).

     (b) Collateral Documents. Without limiting the generality of clause (a) of
this Section 10.01, each Lender hereby further authorizes the Agent to appoint Wilmington
Trust Company as Collateral Agent and Depositary to enter into any Collateral Document as secured
party on behalf of and for the benefit of such Lender or otherwise and to require the delivery of
any Collateral Document which the Agent determines is necessary or advisable to protect or perfect
the interests of the Protected Parties in any Collateral and agrees to be bound by the terms of
each of the Collateral Documents. Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary
notwithstanding, but subject to Section 11.08, each Lender agrees that no Lender shall have
any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral under any Collateral Document or Loan
Document, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Collateral
Documents may be exercised solely by the Agent (or its designee, including the Collateral Agent and
the Depositary) for the benefit of Protected Parties in accordance with the terms thereof. Each
Lender hereby authorizes the Agent (or its designee, including the Collateral Agent and the
Depositary) (a) to release or subordinate Collateral as permitted or required under this Agreement
or the Collateral Documents, and agrees that a certificate or other instrument executed by the
Agent or Collateral Agent evidencing such release of Collateral shall be

92

 

conclusive evidence of such release as to any third party and (b) except as otherwise
expressly provided in Section 11.01 hereof, to enter into any amendments or waivers of the
Collateral Documents which the Agent determines are necessary or advisable including, without
limitation, Collateral Documents the form of which are exhibits to this Agreement.

     SECTION 10.02 Delegation of Duties. The Agent and Collateral Agent may execute any
of their respective duties hereunder or under the other Loan Documents by or through agents,
employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or
experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Neither the Agent nor the Collateral
Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact
selected by it in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.

     SECTION 10.03 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither the Agent nor the Collateral Agent,
nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents, shall be (i) liable for any
action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection herewith or in
connection with any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby
(except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly
set forth herein) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders or participants for any
recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any of the Facility Parties contained
herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or in any certificate, report, document, financial
statement or other written or oral statement referred to or provided for in, or received by the
Agent or the Collateral Agent under or in connection herewith or in connection with the other Loan
Documents, or enforceability or sufficiency therefor of any of the other Loan Documents, or for any
failure of any Facility Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder or be required to
ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions,
provisions, covenants or agreements contained herein or therein or as to the use of the proceeds of
the Loans or of the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default or to
inspect the properties, books or records of the Facility Parties.

     SECTION 10.04 Reliance on Communications. Each of the Agent and the Collateral Agent
shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing,
resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex,
teletype or e-mail message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be
genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon
advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to any of the
Facility Parties, independent accountants and other experts selected by the Agent in the absence of
gross negligence or willful misconduct). The Agent may deem and treat each Lender as the owner of
its interests hereunder for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or
transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Agent in accordance with Section 11.06(b).
Each of the Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take
any action under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents unless it shall first
receive such advice or concurrence of all the Lenders (to the extent specifically provided in
Section 11.03), Required Lenders or Supermajority Lenders, as the case may be, as it deems
appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all
liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any
such action. Each of the Agent and the Collateral Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in
acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder or under any of the other

93

 

Loan Documents in accordance with a request of all the Lenders (to the extent specifically provided in
Section 11.03), Required Lenders or Supermajority Lenders, as the case may be, and such
request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the
Lenders (including their successors and assigns). Where this Agreement expressly permits or
prohibits an action unless all the Lenders (to the extent specifically provided in Section
11.03), Required Lenders or Supermajority Lenders, as the case may be, otherwise determine,
each of the Agent and the Collateral Agent shall, and in all other instances each of the Agent and
the Collateral Agent may, but shall not be required to, initiate any solicitation for the consent
or vote of the Lenders.

     SECTION 10.05 Notice of Default. The Agent shall not be deemed to have Knowledge or
notice of the occurrence of any Amortization Event, Default, Servicer Replacement Event or Event of
Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to
be paid to the Agent for the accounts of the Lenders, unless the Agent has received notice from a
Lender, the Servicer or the Borrower referring to this Agreement or the Servicing Agreement, as
applicable, describing such Amortization Event, Default, Servicer Replacement Event or Event of
Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default” or a “notice of amortization event,”
as the case may be. If the Agent receives such a notice, the Agent shall give prompt notice
thereof to the Lenders. Each of the Agent and the Collateral Agent shall take such action with
respect to such Amortization Event, Default, Servicer Replacement Event or Event of Default as
shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (in the case of an Amortization Event), the
Supermajority Lenders (in the case of a Servicer Replacement Event) or the Required Lenders (in the
case of a Default or Event of Default); provided, however, that unless and until
the Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, has received any such direction, the Agent or
the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or
refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default, Servicer Replacement Event or Event
of Default or it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders.

     SECTION 10.06 Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Agent or Collateral
Agent. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Agent nor the Collateral Agent has
made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Agent or Collateral Agent
hereinafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the
affairs of any Facility Party or any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any
representation or warranty by the Agent or Collateral Agent to any Lender as to any matter,
including whether the Agent or Collateral Agent has disclosed material information in its
possession. Each Lender represents to the Agent and Collateral Agent that it has, independently
and without reliance upon the Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Lender, and based on such
documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation
into the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other condition, prospects and
creditworthiness of the Facility Parties, and all requirements of Applicable Law, and made its own
decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents
that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other
Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time,
continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems
necessary to inform itself as to the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other
conditions, prospects and creditworthiness of the Borrower and the

94

 

other Facility Parties. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to
be furnished to the Lenders by the Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder, neither the Agent nor the
Collateral Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or
other information concerning the business, operations, assets, property, financial or other
conditions, prospects or creditworthiness of any Facility Party or their respective Affiliates
which may come into the possession of the Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be.

     SECTION 10.07 Indemnification. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby
are consummated, the Lenders agree, severally but not jointly, to indemnify the Agent and the
Collateral Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation
of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Commitments (or if the Commitments
have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of outstanding
Loans of the Lenders), from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities which may at any time
(including without limitation at any time following payment in full of the Obligations) be imposed
on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent or the Collateral Agent in each of their respective
capacities as such in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Agent or Collateral Agent
under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the
payment to the Agent or Collateral Agent of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting
from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided, however, that
no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders or Supermajority Lenders,
as the case may be, shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for
purposes of this Section. If any indemnity furnished to the Agent or Collateral Agent for any
purpose shall, in the opinion of the Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, be insufficient
or become impaired, each of the Agent or Collateral Agent may call for additional indemnity and
cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is
furnished. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse each of the Agent and
Collateral Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses
(including fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred by each of the Agent and Collateral Agent in
connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or
enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in
respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any
document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Agent or Collateral Agent is
not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrower. The agreements in this Section
shall survive the payment of the Obligations and all other obligations and amounts payable
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.

     SECTION 10.08 Agent and Collateral Agent in Their Individual Capacities. The Agent,
the Collateral Agent and their respective Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for
the account of, accept deposits from, acquire Equity Interests in, and generally engage in any kind
of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting and other business with the Borrower or any
other Facility Party as though the Agent or Collateral Agent were not the Agent or Collateral Agent
hereunder or under another Loan Document. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to any such
activities, the Agent or its Affiliates may receive information regarding any Facility Party or its
Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in

95

 

favor of such Facility Party or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that neither the Agent nor the
Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to provide such information to them. With
respect to the Loans made by and all obligations owing to it, each of the Agent and the Collateral
Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any Lender and may exercise the
same as though it was not the Agent or Collateral Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall
include the Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, in their respective individual
capacities.

     SECTION 10.09 Term; Successor Agents. The Agent may (i) resign upon 30 days’ written
notice to the Lenders, the Borrower and the Servicer, and (ii) be removed as Agent upon the request
of the Supermajority Lenders. If the Agent resigns under a Loan Document, the Supermajority
Lenders shall appoint from among the Committed Lenders a successor Agent, which successor Agent, if
other than a Lender, shall be consented to by the Borrower at all times other than during the
existence of an Event of Default (which consent of the Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld
or delayed). If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Supermajority Lenders, and
shall have accepted such appointment prior to the effective date of the resignation of the
resigning Agent, then the resigning Agent, after consulting with the Lenders and the Borrower shall
appoint a successor Agent; provided, however, such successor Agent is a Lender
hereunder or a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States and has a combined
capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000. If no successor Agent is appointed prior to the
effective date of the resignation of the resigning Agent, the resigning Agent may appoint, after
consulting with the Lenders and the Borrower, a successor Agent, from among the Lenders. Upon the
acceptance of any appointment as an Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor Agent shall
thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the
retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent, shall be discharged from its duties and obligations as an
Agent, as appropriate, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the provisions of this
Section 10.09 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by
it while it was an Agent under this Agreement. If no successor Agent has accepted appointment as
Agent within 60 days after the retiring Agent’s giving notice of resignation, the retiring Agent’s
resignation shall nevertheless become effective and the Lenders shall perform all duties of the
Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Supermajority Lenders appoint a successor Agent as
provided for above.

     SECTION 10.10 Request for Documents. Each of the Agent and the Collateral Agent
shall from time to time upon reasonable request therefor furnish each Lender with copies of the
Funding Package, Railcar Documentation, Lease Documents and/or Loan Documents (to the extent such
Funding Package, Railcar Documentation, Lease Documents and/or Loan Documents are provided by the
Borrower or other third parties, in the form and to the extent provided to the Agent or the
Collateral Agent by the Borrower or such third parties).

ARTICLE XI

96

 

facsimile number or electronic mail address specified for notices as set forth on Schedule
11.01 or at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a notice to the Borrower

by means of a telephone call to the intended recipient at the number specified on Schedule
11.01, it being understood and agreed that a voicemail message shall in no event be effective
as a notice, communication or confirmation hereunder.

     (b) Effectiveness of Facsimile Documents and Signatures. Loan Documents may be
transmitted and/or signed by facsimile. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures
shall, subject to requirements of Applicable Law, have the same force and effect as manually-signed
originals and shall be binding on all Facility Parties, the Agent, the Collateral Agent and the
Lenders. The Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a
manually-signed original thereof; provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver the
same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature.

     (c) Reliance by Agent, Collateral Agent and Lenders. The Agent, the Collateral Agent
and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices purportedly given by or on
behalf of the Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were
incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein or (ii)
the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The
Borrower shall indemnify the Agent, Collateral Agent and each Lender from all losses, costs,
expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly
given by or on behalf of the Borrower. All telephonic notices to and other communications with the
Agent may be recorded by the Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such
recording.

     SECTION 11.02 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure or delay on the part of the
Agent, Collateral Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or
under any other Loan Document and no course of dealing between the Agent, Collateral Agent or any
Lender and any of the Facility Parties shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or
privilege hereunder or thereunder. The rights and remedies provided herein are cumulative and not
exclusive of any rights or remedies which the Agent, Collateral Agent or any Lender would otherwise
have. No notice to or demand on any Facility Party in any case shall entitle the Facility Parties
to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver
of the rights of the Agent, Collateral Agent or the Lenders to any other or further action in any
circumstances without notice or demand.

97

 

     SECTION 11.03 Amendments, Waivers and Consents. Neither this Agreement nor any other
Loan Document nor any of the terms hereof or thereof may be amended, changed, waived, discharged or
terminated except, (a) in the case of this Agreement, upon the Agent requesting from each Rating
Agency (if any) a determination whether, as a result of any such amendment (except for changes to
the definition of “Initial Principal Amount,” “Expected Maturity Date,” “Term Maturity Date” or
“Legal Final Maturity Date” or the dates on which payments are due pursuant to Section 2.06
or Section 2.07, or other changes or agreements in respect of the subject matter herein
which are, in the judgment of the Agent, ministerial or address mechanical matters not raising any
substantive credit-related concerns, including in respect of such repayment and release matters
associated with Asset Dispositions under Section 7.05), it would cause the rating of the
Notes to be reduced or withdrawn and (b) in the case of this Agreement or any other Loan Document,
pursuant to an agreement or agreements or a consent or consents in writing entered into by the
Borrower, each other Facility Party which is party thereto, the Supermajority Lenders, and the
Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not restrict the ability of the Supermajority
Lenders to waive any Event of Default prior to the time the Agent shall have declared, or the
Required Lenders shall have requested the Agent to declare, the Loans immediately due and payable
pursuant to Article IX; provided, however, that:

     (i) no such amendment, change, waiver, discharge or termination shall, without the
consent of each Lender affected thereby:

     (A) extend the Legal Final Maturity Date or any payment of the Loans due
thereon; provided that this clause (A) shall not restrict the ability of the
Supermajority Lenders to waive any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default
the waiver of which would effectively result in any such extension or waiver), prior
to the time the Agent shall have declared, or the Required Lenders shall have
requested the Agent to declare, the Loans immediately due and payable pursuant to
Article IX;

     (B) reduce the rate, or extend the time of payment, of interest (other than as
a result of waiving the applicability of any post-default increase in interest
rates) thereon or fees hereunder;

     (C) reduce or waive the principal amount of any Loan;

     (D) increase the Commitment of a Lender over the amount thereof in effect (it
being understood and agreed that a waiver of any Default, Servicer Event, Servicer
Replacement Event or Event of Default or a mandatory reduction in the Commitments
shall not constitute a change in the terms of any Commitment of any Lender);

     (E) release all or substantially all or less than all of the Collateral
securing the Credit Obligations hereunder (provided that the Collateral Agent may,
without consent from any other Lender, release any Collateral that is sold or
transferred by the Borrower in compliance with Section 7.05, or released in
compliance with Section 9.12 of the Security Agreement);

98

 

     (F) release any amounts from the Liquidity Reserve Account other than in
accordance with Section 2.07(c), Section 2.07(d) or Section
6.14(c);

     (G) release any Facility Party from its respective obligations under the Loan
Documents and/or the Servicing Documents;

     (H) amend, modify or waive any provision of this Section 11.03 or
reduce any percentage specified in, or otherwise modify, the definition of Required
Lenders or Supermajority Lenders;

     (I) amend or modify or, if applicable, waive the effects of the definition of
“Advance Rate” and/or “Concentration Excess Amount”; or

     (J) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower or the Servicer of
any of its rights and obligations under (or in respect of) the Loan Documents and
the Servicing Agreement, except as permitted thereby.

     (K) amend or modify or, if applicable, waive the effects of the definition of
“Term Maturity Date” and/or “Expected Maturity Date”;

     (L) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 2.07(c); or

     (M) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 2.10.

     (ii) no provision of Article X may be amended without the consent of the Agent.

     Notwithstanding the fact that the consent of all the Lenders is required in certain
circumstances as set forth above, (i) each Lender is entitled to vote as such Lender sees fit on
any bankruptcy reorganization plan that affects the Loans, and each Lender acknowledges that the
provisions of Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code supersede the unanimous consent provisions set
forth herein and (ii) the Supermajority Lenders may consent to allow the Borrower to use cash
collateral in the context of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding.

     No amendment to (i) the definitions of “Creditor,” “Derivatives Agreement,” “Derivatives
Creditor,” “Derivatives Creditor Event,” “Derivatives Obligations,” “Derivatives Termination
Value,” “Obligations” or “Protected Party” contained in Section 1.01 and in the definition
of “Secured Obligations” in Section 1.01 of the Security Agreement, (ii) Section 2.07(c),
(iii) Section 9.01, (iv) Section 9.03, (v) this paragraph of Section 11.03,
(vi) Section 11.17, (vii) Section 9.06 of the Security Agreement and (viii)
Section 9.06 of the Parent Security Agreement only, in each of clauses (i) through
(viii), in a manner that materially adversely affects a Derivatives Creditor, shall be
effective without the written concurrence of such Derivatives Creditor and no addition of any new
provision to this Agreement in a manner that impacts any of the sections described in clauses
(i) through (viii) of this paragraph only and that materially adversely affect a
Derivatives Creditor shall be effective without the written concurrence of such Derivatives
Creditor. Prior to any amendment of the sections described in clauses (i) through (vii) of this
paragraph, the Agent shall provide ten (10) Business Days written notice to the Derivatives
Creditors.

99

 

     The various requirements of this Section 11.03 are cumulative. Each Lender and each
holder of a Note shall be bound by any waiver, amendment or modification authorized by this
Section 11.03 regardless of whether its Note shall have been marked to make reference
therein, and any consent by any Lender or holder of a Note pursuant to this Section 11.03
shall bind any Person subsequently acquiring a Note from it, whether or not such Note shall have
been so marked.

     SECTION 11.04 Expenses. The Borrower shall pay promptly on demand, but in any event
by the next Settlement Date following demand, all out-of-pocket expenses (including, without
limitation, all reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Agent (and its
Affiliates), the Collateral Agent and the Committed Lenders: (i) in connection with the
preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification and amendment of the Loan Documents
and in connection with the Borrowing including, without limitation, (A) due diligence, collateral
review, syndication, transportation, computer, duplication, audit, insurance, consultant, search,
filing and recording fees and expenses and (B) the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for each
of the Agent and the Collateral Agent with respect thereto, with respect to advising the Agent or
the Collateral Agent as to its rights and responsibilities, or the perfection, protection or
preservation of rights and interests, under the Loan Documents and Lease Documents, (ii) in
connection with wire transfers to be made by the Agent or Collateral Agent in connection with the
distribution of proceeds under this Agreement and (iii) in connection with any amendment,
refinancing, modification, supplement (or, if related to a request by any Facility Party or any
Lessee, interpretation), or waiver under any of the Notes or other Loan Documents and Lease
Documents whether or not such amendment, refinancing, modification, supplement, interpretation or
waiver is obtained or becomes effective, and in connection with the consideration of any potential,
actual or proposed restructuring or workout of the transactions contemplated hereby or by the other
Loan Documents.

     The Borrower shall pay promptly on demand, but in any event by the next Settlement Date
following demand, (i) all reasonable filing fees and attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by the
Collateral Agent, the Agent and the Lenders and all reasonable fees and expenses of special STB or
other collateral or regulatory counsel (and other local counsel reasonably engaged by the
Collateral Agent or the Agent), as the case may be, in connection with the preparation and review
of the Collateral Documents and the other Loan Documents and Lease Documents from time to time
entered into or reviewed pursuant to this Agreement and all documents related thereto, the search
of railcar conveyance and Lien records, the recordation of documents with the STB or other
applicable Governmental Authority, inspection and appraisal fees and the making of the Loans
hereunder, whether or not the Closing Date or other transaction contemplated hereby closes and (ii)
all taxes which the Collateral Agent or any Protected Party may be required to pay solely by reason
of the security interests granted in the Collateral (including any applicable transfer taxes) or to
free any of the Collateral from the lien thereof.

     In addition, the Borrower shall pay promptly on demand, but in any event by the next
Settlement Date following demand, all reasonable out of pocket expenses (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and fees and expenses of any expert witnesses)
incurred by the Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders in connection with the enforcement and
protection of the rights of the Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders under any of the Loan
Documents and any amendments thereto and waivers thereof and any

100

 

Servicer Replacement Event, Default or Event of Default, including without limitation, the
performance by the Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Lenders of any act any Facility Party has
covenanted to do under the Loan Documents and/or the Servicing Documents to the extent such
Facility Party fails to comply with any such covenant.

     The Borrower shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with the Depository Agreement
including, without limitation, all fees (including any annual fee payable to the Depositary
pursuant to the Depository Agreement), expenses and any indemnity payments to the Depositary and
all fees and expenses in creating, maintaining and administrating the Accounts.

     SECTION 11.05 Indemnification. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby
are consummated, the Borrower agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless the Agent, the Collateral
Agent, each Lender, each Derivatives Creditor, each Support Party and their respective Affiliates,
directors, officers, employees, counsel, agents and attorneys-in-fact (collectively the
“Indemnitees”) from and against (and without duplication of amounts payable or the
provisions which relate to such payment under the other provisions of the Loan Documents): (i) any
and all claims, demands, actions or causes of action that are asserted against any Indemnitee by
any Person (other than the Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender) relating directly or
indirectly to a claim, demand, action or cause of action that such Person asserts or may assert
against Trinity or any Facility Party, any Affiliate of Trinity or any Facility Party or any of
their respective officers, managers or directors; (ii) any and all claims, demands, actions or
causes of action that may at any time (including at any time following repayment of the Obligations
and the resignation or removal of the Agent, the Collateral Agent or the replacement of any Lender)
be asserted or imposed against any Indemnitee, arising out of or relating to, the Loan Documents,
any predecessor Loan Documents, the Commitments, the use of or contemplated use of the proceeds of
any Loan, or the relationship of Trinity, any Facility Party, the Agent and the Lenders under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document; (iii) any administrative or investigative proceeding by any
Governmental Authority arising out of or related to a claim, demand, action or cause of action
described in clause (i) or (ii) above; (iv) any Loan Document, Lease Document,
other Transaction Document or any document contemplated hereby or thereby and payments made
pursuant hereto or thereto or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby or the exercise of
rights and remedies hereunder or thereunder, any breach by Trinity or any Facility Party of any
Transaction Document or Lease Document or a Lessee of any Lease Document, (v) any Railcar, any Part
or the Borrower’s acquisition or ownership of, or the selection, design, financing, lease, control,
operation, condition, location, storage, modification, repair, sale, use, maintenance, possession,
registration, delivery, nondelivery, transportation, transfer or disposition of, any Railcar or
Part; (vi) any liability arising under or in respect of any Environmental Law, in each case
relating to any Railcar or the use, operation or ownership thereof, whether by Trinity or any
Facility Party, any Lessee or any other Person; (vii) any and all liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, suits, judgments, costs and expenses of any kind,
including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, which may be
incurred by, imposed on or asserted against such Indemnitee in connection with any investigation or
administrative or judicial proceeding (whether or not such Indemnitee) shall be designated a party
thereto) brought or threatened relating to or arising out of any Collateral Document or in any
other way connected with the enforcement of any of the terms of, or the presentation of any rights
under, or in any way relating to or arising out of the manufacture, ownership, ordering,
purchasing, delivery, control,

101

 

acceptance, lease, financing, possession, operation, condition, sale, return or other
disposition or use of the Collateral (including, without limitation, intent or other defects,
whether or not discoverable) the violation of any laws of any country, state or other governmental
body or unit, or any tort (including, without limitation, any claims, arising or imposed under the
doctrine of strict liability, or for or on account of injury to or the death of any Person
(including any Indemnities), or property damage or contract claim; and (viii) any and all
liabilities (including liabilities under indemnities), losses, costs or expenses (including fees
and disbursements of one legal counsel, collectively, of the Indemnitees other than the Agent and
the Collateral Agent, and one legal counsel of each of the Agent and the Collateral Agent) that any
Indemnitee suffers or incurs as a result of the assertion of any foregoing claim, demand, action,
cause of action or proceeding, or as a result of the preparation of any defense in connection with
any foregoing claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding, in all cases, and whether or
not an Indemnitee is a party to such claim, demand, action, cause of action, or Proceeding (all the
foregoing, collectively; the “Indemnified Liabilities”). THE FOREGOING INDEMNIFICATION
SHALL APPLY WHETHER OR NOT SUCH LIABILITIES AND COSTS ARE IN ANY WAY OR TO ANY EXTENT OWED, IN
WHOLE OR IN PART, UNDER ANY CLAIM OR THEORY OF STRICT LIABILITY OR CAUSED, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, BY
ANY NEGLIGENT ACT OR OMISSION OF ANY KIND BY ANY INDEMNITEE; provided that no Indemnitee
shall be entitled to indemnification for any claim caused by its own breach, gross negligence or
willful misconduct and provided further, that no Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification
for any claim arising solely out of (i) the bankruptcy, insolvency or other financial inability of
one or more Lessees to make payments under a related Lease or (ii) the decline in market value of a
Portfolio Railcar, to the extent not attributable to the failure of a Facility Party to perform an
obligation with respect to such Portfolio Railcar under a Transaction Document; provided,
further, that no Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification under this Section
11.05 in respect of (a) Taxes, Other Taxes, and the enumerated items excluded from the
definition of “Taxes” under Section 3.01(a) or (b) losses which result from or arise out of
or are attributable to a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code
cause by the incorrectness of a Lender’s representation in Section 8.01 or a breach of a
Lender’s covenant in Section 8.03. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other
proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 11.05 applies, such indemnity shall be
effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by Trinity, any
Facility Party, their respective directors, shareholders or creditors or an Indemnitee or any other
Person or any Indemnitee is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the transactions
contemplated hereby are consummated. The Borrower agrees not to assert any claim against the
Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender, any Derivatives Creditor, any Support Party, any of their
Affiliates or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys, agents and
advisers, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages
arising out of or otherwise relating to the Loan Documents, any of the transactions contemplated
herein or therein or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Loans. Without prejudice to
the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents,
the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in this Section 11.05 shall
survive the repayment of the Loans and other obligations under the Loan Documents and the
termination of the Commitments hereunder.

     The Borrower shall, no later than 20 days following demand, reimburse any Indemnitee for any
Indemnified Liability referred to above or, upon request from any Indemnitee, shall pay

102

 

such amounts directly. Any payment made to or on behalf of any Indemnitee pursuant to this
Section 11.05 shall be adjusted to such amount as will, after taking into account all Taxes
imposed with respect to the accrual or receipt of such payment (as the same may be increased
pursuant to this sentence), equal the amount of the payment. To the extent that the Borrower in
fact indemnifies any Indemnitee pursuant to the provisions of this Section 11.05 (other
than in respect of Taxes), the Borrower shall be subrogated to such Indemnitee’s rights in the
affected transaction and shall have a right to determine the settlement of claims therein.

     If a claim of the type described above is made against an Indemnitee and such Indemnitee has
notice thereof, such Indemnitee shall promptly, upon receiving such notice, give notice of such
claim to the Borrower; provided that the failure to provide such notice shall not release
the Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder except if and to the extent that such failure
results in an increase in the Borrower’s indemnification obligations hereunder. The Borrower shall
be entitled, in each case at its sole cost and expense, acting through counsel reasonably
acceptable to the relevant Indemnitee: (i) in any judicial or administrative proceeding that
involves solely a claim of the type described above, to assume responsibility for and control
thereof, (ii) in any judicial or administrative proceeding involving a claim of the type described
above and other claims related or unrelated to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or
any other Loan Document (other than with respect to Taxes), to assume responsibility for and
control of such claim, to the extent that the same may be and is severed from such other claims
(and such Indemnitee shall use its best efforts to obtain such severance), and (iii) in any other
case, to be consulted by such Indemnitee with respect to judicial proceedings subject to the
control of such Indemnitee. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, the
Borrower shall not be entitled to assume responsibility for and control of any such judicial or
administrative proceedings: (A) while an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;
(B) if such proceedings will involve any risk of criminal liability or a material risk of the sale,
forfeiture or loss of any part of the Collateral; or (C) to the extent that the Indemnitee has
defenses available to it which are not available to the Borrower and allowing the Borrower to
assert such defenses will be prejudicial to the interests of such Indemnitee; provided that
the limitation on the Borrower’s ability to control such judicial or administrative proceeding
shall apply only to those aspects of such proceeding which address issues with respect to which
such defenses are available.

     The relevant Indemnitee shall supply the Borrower with such information reasonably requested
by the Borrower as is necessary or advisable for the Borrower to control or participate in any
proceeding to the extent permitted by this Section 11.05. Such Indemnitee shall not enter
into a settlement or other compromise with respect to any covered claim without the prior written
consent of the Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, unless such
Indemnitee waives its right to be protected with respect to such covered claim.

     SECTION 11.06 Successors, Assigns, and Participants. (a) Generally. This
Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective
successors and assigns of the parties hereto; provided that the Borrower may not assign or
transfer any of its interests and obligations without the prior written consent of either the
Supermajority Lenders or the Lenders, as the terms set forth in Section 11.03 may require.

103

 

     (b) Assignments. Any Lender may assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations
under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Loans and its
Commitments); provided, however, that

     (i) each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee who, unless otherwise
consented to by the Borrower, is not a Competitor of the Borrower;

     (ii) no Lender may at any time assign such rights and obligations without the prior
written consent of the Agent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and
without prior written notice to the Borrower;

     (iii) except in the case of an assignment to another Lender, an Affiliate of an
existing Lender or any Approved Fund, (1) such assignee shall acquire all of the outstanding
Loans of the assigning Lender, or (2) such assignee shall acquire (and such assignor shall
retain) in the aggregate upon any such assignment by one or more Lenders a minimum amount of
Loans with an aggregate original (as of the Closing Date) principal balance of at least
$10,000,000 (but in no event Loans with a then aggregate current principal balance of less
than $5,000,000, unless an Event of Default, a Default described in Section
9.01(g)(ii) or Servicer Replacement Event has occurred and is continuing, in which case
$1,000,000 of the then aggregate current principal balance shall be the minimum amount);

     (iv) the parties to such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent for its
acceptance an Assignment and Acceptance in the form of Exhibit C, together with any
Note subject to such assignment and a processing fee of $3,500, payable or agreed between
the assigning Lender and the assignee; and

     (v) the Borrower shall not be required to reimburse any such assignee pursuant to
Section 3.01, 3.03 or 3.04 in an amount which exceeds the amount
that would have been payable thereunder to the assigning Lender had such Lender not entered
into such assignment.

     (c) Assignment and Acceptance. By executing and delivering an Assignment and
Acceptance in accordance with this Section 11.06, the assigning Lender thereunder and the
assignee thereunder shall be deemed to confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties
hereto as follows: (i) such assigning Lender warrants that it is the legal and beneficial owner of
the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim and the assignee warrants
that it is an Eligible Assignee; (ii) except as set forth in clause (i) above, such
assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to
any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement, any of
the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto,
or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this
Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant
hereto or thereto or the financial condition of the Facility Parties or the performance or
observance by any Facility Party of any of its obligations under this Agreement, any of the other
Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; (iii) such
assignee represents and warrants that it is legally authorized to enter into such

104

 

assignment agreement; (iv) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, the
other Loan Documents, together with copies of the most recent financial statements delivered
pursuant to Section 6.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed
appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and
Acceptance; (v) such assignee will independently and without reliance upon the Agent, the
Collateral Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender, and based on such documents and
information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in
taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (vi) such assignee
appoints and authorizes each of the Agent and the Collateral Agent to take such action on its
behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement or any other Loan Document as are delegated
to each of the Agent and the Collateral Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such
powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in
accordance with their terms all the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents are required to be performed by it as a Lender. Upon execution, delivery, and
acceptance of such Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and,
to the extent of such assignment, have the obligations, rights, and benefits of a Lender hereunder
and the assigning Lender shall, to the extent of such assignment, relinquish its rights and be
released from its obligations under this Agreement. Upon the consummation of any assignment
pursuant to this Section 11.06(c), the assignor, the Agent and the Borrower shall make
appropriate arrangements so that, if required, new Notes are issued to the assignor and the
assignee. If the assignee is not a United States person under Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, it
shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent certification as to exemption from deduction or
withholding of Taxes in accordance with Section 3.01.

     (d) Register. The Borrower hereby designates the Agent to serve as the Borrower’s
agent, solely for purposes of this Section 11.06(d), to (i) maintain a register (the
“Register”) on which the Agent will record the Commitments from time to time of each
Lender, the Loans made by each Lender and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of the
Loans of each Lender and to (ii) retain a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to the
Agent pursuant to this Section. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such
recordation, shall not affect the Borrower’s obligation in respect of such Loans. The entries in
the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agent and
the Lenders shall treat each Person in whose name a Loan and the Note evidencing the same is
registered as the owner thereof for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice or any
provision herein to the contrary. With respect to any Lender, the assignment or other transfer the
rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Loan made and any Note issued pursuant to this
Agreement shall not be effective until such assignment or other transfer is recorded on the
Register and, except to the extent provided in this Section 11.06(d), otherwise complies
with Section 11.06, and prior to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferring
Lender with respect to such Loans and Notes shall remain owing to the transferring Lender. The
registration of assignment or other transfer of all or part of any Loans and Notes for a Lender
shall be recorded by the Agent on the Register only upon the acceptance by the Agent of a properly
executed and delivered Assignment and Acceptance and payment of the administrative fee referred to
in Section 11.06(b)(iv). The Register shall be available at the offices where kept by the
Agent for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender at any reasonable time upon reasonable prior
notice to the Agent.

105

 

     (e) Participations. Each Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the
Agent, sell participations to one or more Persons in all or a portion of its rights, obligations or
rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Loans owing to it
and any Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations
under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to
the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the participant shall be
entitled to the benefit of right of setoff contained in Section 11.08 and the yield
protection provisions contained in Sections 3.01, 3.03 and 3.04 to the same
extent that the Lender from which such participant acquired its participation would be entitled to
the benefits of such yield protections; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to
reimburse any participant pursuant to Sections 3.01, 3.03 or 3.04 in an
amount which exceeds the amount that would have been payable thereunder to such Lender had such
Lender not sold such participation and (iv) the Borrower, the Agent and the other Lenders shall
continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and
obligations under this Agreement, and such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the
obligations of the Borrower relating to the Obligations owing to such Lender and to approve any
amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement (other than amendments,
modifications or waivers decreasing the amount of principal of or the rate at which interest is
payable on such Loans or Notes, extending any scheduled principal payment date or date fixed for
the payment of interest on such Loans or Notes or extending its Commitment). Each Lender that
sells a participating interest in any Loan, Commitment or other interest to a participant shall, as
agent for the Borrower solely for the purpose of this Section 11.06, record in book entries
maintained by such Lender the name and amount of the participating interest of each participant
entitled to receive payments in respect of such participating interest.

     (f) Other Assignments. Any Lender may at any time (i) assign all or any portion of
its rights under this Agreement and any Loans and Notes to a Federal Reserve Bank, (ii) pledge or
assign a security interest in all or any portion of its interest and rights under this Agreement
(including all or any portion of its Loans and Notes, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender
and (iii) grant to a Conduit Lender referred to in subsection (g) below identified as such
in writing from time to time by such Lender to the Agent and the Borrower the option to provide to
the Borrower all or any part of any Loans that such Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to
the Borrower pursuant to the Agreement; provided that no such assignment, option, pledge or
security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any
such Federal Reserve Bank or other person to which such option, pledge or assignment has been made
for such Lender as a party hereto.

     (g) Conduit Lenders, etc. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
any Committed Lender (a “Granting Lender”), may grant to a conduit lender sponsored by such
Granting Lender, identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the
Agent and the Borrower (a “Conduit Lender”) the option to fund all or any part of any Loan
that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to fund pursuant to this Agreement;
provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any Conduit Lender to
fund any Loan and (ii) if a Conduit Lender elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to
fund all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to fund such Loan
pursuant to the terms hereof. The funding of a Loan by a Conduit Lender hereunder shall utilize
the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent that, and as if, such Loan were funded by

106

 

such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no Conduit Lender shall be liable
for any indemnity or payment under this Agreement for which a Lender would otherwise be liable for
so long as, and to the extent, the Granting Lender provides such indemnity or makes such payment.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Conduit Lender may
disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Loans to any
rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or guarantee to such Conduit
Lender. This subsection (g) may not be amended without the prior written consent of each
Granting Lender, all or any part of whose Loan is being funded by a Conduit Lender at the time of
such amendment. Credit Suisse, Cayman Islands Branch, hereby designates Alpine Securitization
Corp. as a “Conduit Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and
grants to such Conduit Lender the option to fund all or any portion of the Loans contemplated to be
made hereunder by Credit Suisse, Cayman Islands Branch.

     SECTION 11.07 Confidentiality. Each of the Agent, the Collateral Agent and the
Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that
Information may be disclosed (i) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and
agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the
Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such
Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (ii) to the extent requested by
any regulatory authority with jurisdiction over the Agent, the Collateral Agent or Lender, as
applicable; (iii) to the extent required by Applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or
similar legal process; (iv) to any other party to this Agreement; (v) in connection with the
exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or
any other Loan Documents or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder; (vi) subject to an
agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (A) any
Eligible Assignee of or participant in, or any prospective Eligible Assignee of or participant in,
any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (B) any direct or indirect contractual
counterparty or prospective counterparty (or such contractual counterparty’s or prospective
counterparty’s professional advisor) to any credit derivative transaction relating to obligations
of the Borrower or (C) any Support Party or any managing agent of a Lender that is a commercial
paper conduit; (vii) with the written consent of the Borrower; (viii) to the extent such
information (A) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or
(B) becomes available to the Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis
from a source other than the Borrower; or (ix) to the National Association of Insurance
Commissioners or any other similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that
requires access to information about a Lender’s or its Affiliates’ investment portfolio in
connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender or its Affiliates. For the purposes of
this Section, “Information” means all information received from or on behalf of the
Borrower relating to the Borrower or its business, other than any such information that is
available to the Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to
disclosure by or on behalf of the Borrower. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of
Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to
do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such
Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

107

 

     SECTION 11.08 Set-off. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under
Applicable Law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Lender (and each of its Affiliates) is
authorized at any time and from time to time, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice
of any kind (all of such rights being hereby expressly waived), to set-off and to appropriate and
apply any and all deposits (general or specific) and any other indebtedness at any time held or
owing by such Lender (including, without limitation, branches, agencies or Affiliates of such
Lender wherever located) to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against obligations
and liabilities of the Borrower to the Lenders hereunder, under the Loans and Notes, under the
other Loan Documents or otherwise, irrespective of whether the Agent or the Lenders shall have made
any demand hereunder and although such obligations, liabilities or claims, or any of them, may be
contingent or unmatured, and any such set-off shall be deemed to have been made immediately upon
the occurrence of an Event of Default even though such charge is made or entered on the books of
such Lender subsequent thereto. The Borrower hereby agrees that to the extent permitted by law any
Person purchasing a participation in the Loans and Commitments hereunder may exercise all rights of
set-off with respect to its participation interest as fully as if such Person were a Lender
hereunder and any such set-off shall reduce the amount owed by the Borrower to the Lender.

     SECTION 11.09 Interest Rate Limitation. The Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower and
any other parties to the Loan Documents intend to contract in strict compliance with applicable
usury law from time to time in effect. In furtherance thereof such Persons stipulate and agree
that none of the terms and provisions contained in the Loan Documents shall ever be construed to
create a contract to pay, for the use, forbearance or detention of money, interest in excess of the
maximum amount of interest permitted to be charged by Applicable Law from time to time in effect
(the “Maximum Rate”). Neither the Borrower nor any present or future guarantors,
endorsers, or other Persons hereafter becoming liable for payment of any Credit Obligation shall
ever be liable for unearned interest thereon or shall ever be required to pay interest thereon in
excess of the maximum amount that may be lawfully charged under Applicable Law from time to time in
effect, and the provisions of this section shall control over all other provisions of the Loan
Documents which may be in conflict or apparent conflict herewith. The Lenders and the Agent
expressly disavow any intention to charge or collect excessive unearned interest or finance charges
in the event the maturity of any Credit Obligation is accelerated. If (i) the maturity of any
Credit Obligation is accelerated for any reason, (ii) any Credit Obligation is prepaid and as a
result any amounts held to constitute interest are determined to be in excess of the legal maximum,
or (iii) any Lender of any other holder of any or all of the Credit Obligations shall otherwise
collect moneys which are determined to constitute interest which would otherwise increase the
interest on any or all of the Credit Obligations to an amount in excess of that permitted to be
charged by Applicable Law then in effect, then all sums determined to constitute interest in excess
of such legal limit shall, without penalty, be promptly applied to reduce the then outstanding
principal of the related Credit Obligations or, at such Lender’s or holder’s option, promptly
returned to the Borrower or the other payor thereof upon such determination. In determining
whether or not the interest paid or payable, under any specific circumstance, exceeds the maximum
amount permitted under Applicable Law, the Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower (and any other
payors thereof) shall to the greatest extent permitted under Applicable Law, (i) characterize any
non-principal payment as an expense, fee or premium rather than as interest, (ii) exclude voluntary
prepayments and the effects thereof, and (iii) amortize, prorate,

108

 

allocate, and spread the total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of
the instruments evidencing the Credit Obligations in accordance with the amounts outstanding from
time to time thereunder and the maximum legal rate of interest from time to time in effect under
Applicable Law in order to lawfully charge the maximum amount of interest permitted under
Applicable Law. In the event Applicable Law provides for an interest ceiling under Chapter 303 of
the Texas Finance Code (the “Texas Finance Code”) as amended, for that day, the ceiling
shall be the “weekly ceiling” as defined in the Texas Finance Code; provided that if any
Applicable Law permits greater interest, the Law permitting the greatest interest shall apply. As
used in this Section 11.09 the term “Applicable Law” includes, without limitation the laws
of the State of Texas, the laws of the State of New York or the laws of the United States of
America, whichever laws allow the greatest interest, as such laws now exist or may be changed or
amended or come into effect in the future.

     SECTION 11.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which
shall constitute one and the same instrument. It shall not be necessary in making proof of this
Agreement to produce or account for more than one such counterpart.

     SECTION 11.11 Integration. THIS WRITTEN AGREEMENT, TOGETHER WITH THE OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENTS, REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT OF THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF
PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL
AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this
Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control;
provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Collateral
Agent, the Agent or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this
Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties
thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance
with the fair meaning thereof.

     SECTION 11.12 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and
warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant
hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery
hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the
Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Agent, the
Collateral Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Agent, the
Collateral Agent or any Lender may have had notice or Knowledge of any Default or Event of Default
at the time of the Borrowing, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or
any other Obligation shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied.

     SECTION 11.13 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents to which any Facility Party is a party that is prohibited or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions thereof, and any such prohibition or
unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in
any other jurisdiction.

109

 

     SECTION 11.14 Headings. The headings of the sections and subsections hereof are
provided for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any
provision of this Agreement.

     SECTION 11.15 Marshalling; Payments Set Aside. None of the Agent, the Collateral
Agent or any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of the Borrower or
any other party or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that the
Borrower makes a payment or payments to the Agent or the Collateral Agent (or to the Agent for the
benefit of the Lenders, or to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Protected Parties), or
the Agent or the Collateral Agent enforces any security interests or exercises its rights of
set-off, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or set-off or any part
thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or
required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, any other
state or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the
obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies
therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such
payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or set-off had not occurred.

     SECTION 11.16 Performance by the Agent. If the Borrower fails to perform any of its
obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any Servicing Document in a timely
fashion, the Agent shall be entitled, but not obliged, to perform such obligation at the expense of
the Borrower and without waiving any rights that it may have with respect to such breach.

     SECTION 11.17 Third Party Beneficiaries. Each Protected Party, including without
limitation each Support Party, is an express third party beneficiary hereof.

     SECTION 11.18 No Proceedings. (a) Each party hereto hereby agrees that it will not
institute against any Conduit Lender, or join any other Person in instituting against any Conduit
Lender, any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, liquidation or similar proceeding from the
Closing Date until one year plus one day following the last day on which all commercial paper notes
and other publicly or privately placed indebtedness for borrowed money of such Conduit Lender shall
have been indefeasibly paid in full.

     (b) No recourse under any obligation, covenant or agreement of Conduit Lender as contained in
any Loan Document shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, affiliate, officer, employee
or director of the Conduit Lender, by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or
equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute or otherwise; it being expressly agreed and
understood that the agreements of each Conduit Lender contained in any Loan Document are solely
corporate obligations of such Conduit Lender and that no personal liability whatsoever shall attach
to or be incurred by the incorporators, stockholders, affiliates, officers, employees or directors
of such Conduit Lender, under or by reason of any of the respective obligations, covenants or
agreements of such Conduit Lender contained in any Loan Document, or implied therefrom, and that
any and all personal liability of every such incorporator, stockholder, affiliate, officer,
employee or director of such Conduit Lender for breaches by such Conduit Lender of any such
obligation, covenant or agreement, which liability may arise either at common law or in equity, by
statute or constitution, or otherwise, is hereby expressly waived as

110

 

a condition of and in consideration for the execution of this Agreement. The provisions of
this Section 11.18 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

     (c) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, no Conduit Lender
shall have any obligation to pay any amount required to be paid by it hereunder or thereunder to
any party hereto, in excess of any amount available to such Conduit Lender after paying or making
provision for the payment of its commercial paper notes. All payment obligations of each Conduit
Lender hereunder are contingent upon the availability of funds in excess of the amounts necessary
to pay commercial paper notes; and each of the parties hereto agree that they shall not have a
claim under Section 101(5) of the United States Bankruptcy Code if and to the extent that any such
payment obligation exceeds the amount available to such Conduit Lender to pay such amounts after
paying or making provision for the payment of its commercial paper notes.

     SECTION 11.19 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE
OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL
BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION SECTION 5-1401 AND SECTION 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS
LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK), WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES. Any legal action or
proceeding with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be brought in the courts
of the State of New York in New York County, or of the United States for the Southern District of
New York and, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Borrower hereby irrevocably accepts
for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditional, the nonexclusive
jurisdiction of such courts. The Borrower irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such
proceeding brought in such court and any claim that any such proceeding brought in any such court
has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

     SECTION 11.20 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY
WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER ANY
LOAN DOCUMENT OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES
HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO, IN
EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER FOUNDED IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR
OTHERWISE; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE
OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY
FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE
CONSENT OF THE SIGNATORIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

111

 

     SECTION 11.21 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective at such time
when it shall have been executed by the Borrower, the Collateral Agent and the Agent, and the Agent
shall have received copies hereof (telefaxed or otherwise) which, when taken together, bear the
signatures of each Committed Lender, and thereafter this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure
to the benefit of the Borrower, the Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Lender and their
respective successors and assigns; provided, however, unless the conditions set
forth in Section 4.01 have been satisfied by the Borrower or waived by the Lenders on or
before the Commitment Termination Date, none of the Borrower, the Agent, the Collateral Agent or
the Lenders shall have any obligations under this Agreement.

     SECTION 11.22 The Patriot Act. The Agent and each Lender hereby notifies the
Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act and any comparable law applicable to
any Lender, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower,
which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will
allow the Agent and/or any Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act.

     SECTION 11.23 Railcar Subsidiaries. The Borrower may from time to time, with the
consent of each of the Agent and the Collateral Agent, own one or more Railcar Subsidiaries. In
such event, (i) the Borrower and the Agent shall execute such related amendments, modifications and
supplements to this Agreement as may be required by the Agent and (ii) the Borrower and the
Collateral Agent shall execute such related amendments, modifications and supplements to the
Security Agreement (including any joinder agreements thereto) as may be required by the Collateral
Agent.

     SECTION 11.24 Federal Income Tax Treatment. The Borrower, each Lender, the Agent,
and each assignee and successor thereto hereby agrees to treat the Loans as indebtedness for
federal income tax purposes, and shall maintain such position in all returns and proceedings
relating to such federal income taxes, unless required otherwise pursuant to a final
“determination” within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Code.

qualification or licensing is required by the nature of its business or the character and location

in good standing, as the case may be, in the aggregate, could have a Material Adverse Effect.

     SECTION 3.2. Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. The Seller has the
corporate or other necessary power and authority, and the legal right to execute, deliver and
perform this Agreement, and has taken all necessary corporate or other action to authorize the

consents, authorizations, notices and filings disclosed in Schedule 5.02 to the Loan Agreement, all
of which have been obtained or made and (ii) filings to perfect and maintain the perfection of
Liens created by the Collateral Documents. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered on
behalf of the Seller. This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the
Seller, and is enforceable against the Seller, in accordance with its terms, except as

similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by equitable principles
of general applicability (regardless of whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or
at law).

     SECTION 3.3. No Conflicts. Neither the execution and delivery by the Seller, nor the

Knowledge of the Seller, threatened against the Seller or its Affiliates in any court or before any

6

 

Governmental Authority or arbitration board or tribunal which would affect adversely the
ability of the Seller to perform their respective obligations under this Agreement, nor is the
Seller or any of its Affiliates in default with respect to any order of any court or Governmental
Authority or arbitration board or tribunal, the default under which would adversely affect the
ability of the Seller to perform their respective obligations under, or the enforcement ability of,
this Agreement.

non-compliance, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a
Material Adverse Effect. The Seller is in compliance with all Applicable Laws, ordinances,
governmental rules and regulations to which it is subject, the failure to comply with which would
have a Material Adverse Effect on its operations or condition, financial or otherwise, or would
impair the ability of the Seller to perform its obligations under this Agreement, and has obtained
all licenses, permits, franchises and other governmental authorizations material to the conduct of
its business.

     SECTION 3.8. Records. The Seller will cause the Seller’s records to be marked to
reflect the transfer of the Transferred Assets to the Buyer. The Seller has transferred the
Transferred Assets to the Buyer which are intended to constitute sales, absolute assignments and
conveyances of ownership thereof, such that such Railcars and related Leases would not be property
of the Seller’s estate in the event of a bankruptcy of the Seller. The transfers are to be
reflected on the Seller’s own balance sheet and other financial statements and/or internal records
as transfers of ownership of such assts, consistent with GAAP. The Seller will respond to any
third-party inquiry consistent with such characterization.

     SECTION 3.9. [Reserved].

Bill of Sale for each Railcar listed therein are the Marks used on such Railcars as of the Transfer
Date of such Railcar, and each such Mark is as of such Transfer Date owned of record by the Marks

     SECTION 3.14. Event of Loss. As of each applicable Transfer Date, neither the Seller
nor any of its Affiliates has received any notice of the occurrence of any Event of Loss, or any
event which with the passage of time would constitute an Event of Loss, with respect to any Railcar
to be transferred on such date.

     SECTION 3.15. Solvency. Transfers of Railcars and Leases hereunder are made in good
faith and not with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud any entity to which the Seller is or

     (o) Such Leases were originated by the Seller, in the ordinary course of business. The

     (v) Each such Lease is for the Railcar identified therein and each such Railcar is or
will become, concurrently with such Lease, a Transferred Asset.

10

 

     (w) Except as otherwise disclosed to the Buyer, such Lease and other Portfolio Leases
are on lease and other terms which are no different, taken as a whole, than those for
similar railcars owned, leased or managed by the Seller. Each such Lease is substantially
in the form of Exhibit I-1, I-2 or I-3 to the Loan Agreement.

     (x) Each such Lease is an Eligible Lease.

     (y) Each such Lease is a Lease that is properly treated for United States federal
income tax purposes, taking into account Applicable Law as of the date such Lease is added
to the Portfolio, as a Lease of a Railcar that does not convey ownership of such Railcar for
such income tax purposes to the Lessees of such Railcars.

     (z) Any letter of credit or Letter-of-Credit Right relating to each such Lease names
the Seller as the beneficiary of such letter of credit or Letter-of-Credit Right.

     SECTION 3.18. Marks Company Interest. As of the Transfer Date of each Transferred
Railcar, the Seller has caused the Marks Company Interests with respect to the Marks on such
Railcar to be issued to the Buyer by the Marks Company.

     SECTION 3.19. Full Disclosure. No representation or warranty of the Seller in this
Agreement, nor any statement or certificate furnished or to be furnished to the Buyer pursuant to
this Agreement, or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, contains any
untrue statement of a material fact, or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the
statements contained herein or therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading.

     SECTION 3.20. Fair Labor Standards Act. To the best of the Seller’s knowledge, all
of the Transferred Railcars have been produced in compliance with the applicable requirements of
the Fair Labor Standards Act, as amended from time to time, or any successor statute, and
regulations promulgated thereunder.

ARTICLE IV

COVENANTS OF THE SELLER

     The Seller hereby covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Buyer, the Agent and the Lenders
to perform each of the following covenants.

     SECTION 4.1. Implementing Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the
Seller shall take all action required of it to fulfill its obligations under the terms of this
Agreement and shall otherwise use all commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

     SECTION 4.2. Consents and Approvals. The Seller shall obtain all consents,
approvals, certificates and other documents required in connection with the performance by it of
its obligations under this Agreement and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated
hereby, including all such consents and approvals required in connection with any of the
Transferred Leases and Permits. The Seller shall make, or cause to be made, all filings, notices,

11

 

applications, statements and reports to all Governmental Authorities and other Persons that
are required to be made prior to the applicable Transfer Date by or on behalf of the Seller or any
of its Affiliates pursuant to any Applicable Law or Transferred Lease in connection with this
Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, and shall cooperate with the Buyer in making
all such filings, notices, applications, statements and reports that are required to be made prior
to the applicable Transfer Date by or on behalf of the Buyer or any of its Affiliates pursuant to
any Applicable Law in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

     SECTION 4.3. Notification of Breach. The Seller will advise the Buyer and the Agent
promptly, in reasonable detail, upon discovery of the occurrence of any material breach by the
Seller of any of its representations, warranties and covenants contained herein.

     SECTION 4.4. Taxes. Any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding, any and all sales, use, gross receipts, and other similar transaction-based taxes
imposed on arising with respect to the Transferred Assets pursuant to this Agreement by any
government or agency or subdivision thereof (each a “Transfer Tax”) shall be paid by
Seller, if permitted by Applicable Law. In the event that any Transfer Tax is payable with respect
to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and the payment of such Transfer Tax by Seller
is not permitted by Applicable Law, then:

     (a) the separate statement, payment, and reporting of all such Transfer Tax shall be
made by the Seller, in its capacity as Servicer, on behalf of the Buyer, in accordance with
Applicable Law; and

     (b) The Seller, in its capacity as Servicer, (i) shall recalculate and separately state
the purchase price paid for such Transferred Assets such that the sum of such
recalculated purchase price plus the Transfer Tax thereon to be paid by the Buyer is
equal to the Purchase Price for such Transferred Assets, (ii) collect and set aside a
portion of such Purchase Price in an amount equal to the Transfer Tax computed in clause
(i) of this paragraph and (iii) remit such portion as Transfer Tax to any government or
taxing authority in accordance with Applicable Law.

Buyer and Seller agree to timely sign and deliver such valid exemption or other certificates or
forms as Buyer or Seller may reasonably request and as may be necessary or appropriate to establish
an exemption from (or otherwise reduce), or make a report with respect to, Transfer Taxes. If a
written claim for a Transfer Tax is made by a government or taxing authority against either Seller
or Buyer, such party shall give prompt notice in writing of such claim to the other party (and in
any event within 30 days after its receipt) and shall promptly furnish the other party with copies
of such claim and all other writings received from the government or taxing authority related to
such claim. Any contest pursuant to this section shall be subject to the control and prosecution
of Seller, subject to the reasonable notice and approval of Buyer.

     SECTION 4.5. Property Tax Reimbursement. The Seller shall reimburse Buyer for
property Taxes paid or to be paid by the Buyer for any period arising out of ownership of the
Transferred Railcars prior to the Transfer Date with respect thereto. The Seller shall make such
reimbursement promptly upon payment by the Buyer of such Taxes.

12

 

     SECTION 4.6. Substantive Consolidation. Buyer will be operated in such a manner so
that it would not be substantively consolidated with the Seller, so that the separate existences of
Buyer and Seller would not be disregarded in the event of a bankruptcy or insolvency of Seller, and
in such regard, among other things:

     (a) Seller will not be involved in the day-today management of the Buyer, except in its
capacity as Member (although officers or employees of Seller or its parent may serve as
officers and/or managing trustees of the Buyer);

     (b) Seller will maintain separate corporate records and books of account from the Buyer
and otherwise will observe corporate formalities and will provide a separate area within its
office space for the Buyer;

     (c) Seller will maintain its assets separately from the assets of the Buyer (including
through the maintenance of a separate bank account), and Seller’s assets, and records
relating thereto, have not been, and are not and will not be, commingled with those of the
Buyer (except as permitted by the Customer Collections Account Administration Agreement and
except for misdirected Lease payments);

     (d) all of Seller’s business correspondence and other communications will be conducted
in Seller’s own name and on its own stationary;

     (e) Seller will not act as an agent for the Buyer (except to the extent contemplated in
the Transaction Documents);

     (f) Seller will not conduct any of the business of the Buyer in Seller’s name (except
in its capacity as Member);

     (g) Seller will not pay any liabilities of Buyer, except as expressly provided in the
Transaction Documents;

     (h) Seller will maintain an arm’s length relationship with Buyer;

     (i) Seller will not assume or guarantee or become obligated for the debts of Buyer or
hold out its credit as being available to satisfy the obligations of Buyer;

     (j) Seller will not acquire obligations of Buyer;

     (k) Seller will allocate fairly and reasonably overhead or other expenses that are
properly shared with Buyer;

     (l) Seller will identify and hold itself out as a separate and distinct entity from
Buyer;

     (m) Seller will not identify Buyer as a division or part of Seller;

13

 

     (n) Seller will not induce any third party to rely on the creditworthiness of the Buyer
in order that such third party will be induced to contract with the Seller or any of its
Affiliates (other than the Buyer); and

     (o) Seller will not enter into, or be party to, any other transactions with Buyer
except as provided in the Transaction Documents or except in the ordinary course of its
business and on terms which are intrinsically fair and are no less favorable to Buyer than
would be obtained in a comparable arm’s length transaction with an unrelated third party.

     SECTION 4.7. No Bankruptcy Petition Against the Buyer. The Seller will not, prior to
the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all amounts owing pursuant to
the Transaction Documents, institute against the Buyer, or join any other Person in instituting
against the Buyer, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation
proceedings or similar proceedings under the laws of any applicable jurisdiction. This Section
4.7 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

     SECTION 4.8. Chattel Paper Counterparts. In the event any executed original of an
Initial Lease comes into the possession of the Seller after the Effective Date that does not
already contain a fully executed Chattel Paper Legend, the Seller shall, if permitted under the
terms of the applicable Initial Lease, retain such original in its capacity as Servicer, whereupon
the Seller shall stamp such original with a Chattel Paper Legend and mark such original with a
number that continues the numbering system begun on the originally executed copies of such Lease
which were marked with such Legend and designation on or prior to the Effective Date in accordance
with clause (h) of Section 3.17.

     SECTION 4.9. Rescission of Transfer. The Buyer shall have the right, at any time, to
rescind the transfer of any particular Railcars and the related Leases thereof effected hereunder
if, as of the applicable Transfer Date, any of the Seller’s representations, warranties, covenants
or agreements contained in Article III with respect to such Railcars or such Leases are
untrue or unperformed in any respect and such untruth or failure to perform has a Material Adverse
Effect. Such right of rescission may also be exercised by the Agent. Upon notice by the Buyer or
the Agent of rescission under this Section 4.9, the Seller shall promptly re-acquire the
Transferred Assets subject of such rescission from the Buyer for (i) either (x) a repurchase price
equal to Adjusted Collateral Value of such Transferred Assets or (y) an in kind exchange for a
Qualifying Replacement Railcar with an Appraised Fair Market Value (within sixty (60) days of
acquisition by the Borrower) of at least the Adjusted Collateral Value of the Railcar subject to
the rescission (except to a de minimis extent) determined at the time of the rescission, plus (ii)
all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation, interest, fees, and
counsel expenses, incurred by the Buyer in connection with such Transferred Assets, by wire
transfer in immediately available funds to the Net Cash Proceeds Account and, upon receipt of such
amounts in the Net Cash Proceeds Account and upon the transfer of the Qualifying Replacement
Railcar, if applicable, the Buyer will convey to the Seller the applicable Transferred Assets free
and clear of all Liens other than the Lien of the Lease and any Lien resulting by, through or under
the Seller. Any rescission pursuant to this Section 4.9 shall not be deemed to be an Asset
Disposition. The proceeds of any such rescission shall be applied in accordance with Section
2.07(b)(iv) of the Loan Agreement.

14

     SECTION 5.1. Deliverables. On each Transfer Date, the Seller shall deliver to the

transfer of the Transferred Assets to the Buyer, duly executed by the Seller; and

     (c) such other documents and instruments as may be required by any other provision of

the knowledge and information received (or which should have been received) therefrom by the Buyer.

     SECTION 6.3. Waivers. The failure of a party hereto at any time or times to require
performance of any provision hereof shall in no manner affect its right at a later time to enforce
the same. No waiver by a party of any condition or of any breach of any term, covenant,
representation or warranty contained in this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing, and no
waiver in any one or more instances shall be deemed to be a further or continuing waiver of any
such condition or breach in other instances or a waiver of any other condition or breach of any
other term, covenant, representation or warranty.

15

title to, each of the Transferred Assets, and to otherwise carry out the purposes of this
Agreement.

     SECTION 6.8. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of
such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions thereof, and any
such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

     SECTION 6.9. Remedies Cumulative. The remedies provided in this Agreement shall be
cumulative and shall not preclude the assertion or exercise of any other rights or remedies

counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which
shall constitute one and the same instrument. It shall not be necessary in making proof of this
Agreement to produce or account for more than one such counterpart.

16

 

     SECTION 6.13. Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and
warranties made hereunder or in any other document delivered pursuant hereto or in connection
herewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof, and shall be fully effective
and enforceable until the Termination Date. Such representations and warranties have been or will
be relied upon by the Buyer, regardless of any investigation made by the Buyer or on its behalf and
notwithstanding that the Buyer may have had notice or Knowledge of any default at the time of any
transfer or conveyance hereunder or under any Bill of Sale.

     SECTION 6.14. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE
