ADDENDUM TO EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

     This Addendum to Employment Agreement (“Addendum”) dated the day of August 18, 2004 is between
The Kansas City Southern Railway Company, a Missouri corporation (“Railway”), Kansas City Southern,
a Delaware corporation (“formerly known as Kansas City Southern Industries, Inc.”) and Scott E.
Arvidson, an individual (“Executive”).

     WHEREAS, Executive is currently employed by Railway and Railway, KCSI and Executive
previously entered into an Employment Agreement dated  May 1, 2000 (“Agreement”), which sets
forth terms and conditions of Executive’s employment; and

     WHEREAS, the parties desire to amend certain of those terms and conditions in the
Agreement as set forth below without amending the remaining terms of the Agreement.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, it
is agreed by and between Railway, KCSI and Executive that the Agreement is amended as follows:

1. Paragraphs 4(c) and 4(d) of the Agreement.

Paragraphs 4(c) and 4(d) of the Agreement are hereby deleted and replaced in their
entirety with the following:

     (c) Termination
by Railway For Cause. Railway may terminate this Agreement and
Executive’s employment “for cause” immediately upon notice to Executive. For purposes of this
Agreement (except for Paragraph 7), termination “for cause” shall mean termination based upon any
one or more of the following:

     (i) Any material breach of this Agreement by Executive;

     (ii) Executive’s dishonesty involving Railway, KCSI, or any subsidiary of Railway
or KCSI;

     (iii) Gross negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of Executive’s
duties as determined in good faith by the Railway Board;

     (iv) Executive’s failure to substantially perform his duties and responsibilities
hereunder, including without limitation Executive’s willful failure to follow reasonable
instructions of the President or other officer to whom Executive reports;

     (v) Executive’s breach of an express employment policy of Railway or its
affiliates;

     (vi) Executive’s fraud or criminal activity;

     (vii) Embezzlement or misappropriation by Executive; or

 

 

     (viii) Executive’s breach of his fiduciary duty to Railway, or KCSI or their
affiliates.

     (d) Termination by Railway Other Than For Cause

     (i) Railway may terminate this Agreement and Executive’s employment other than for cause
immediately upon notice to Executive, and in such event, Railway shall provide severance benefits
to Executive in accordance with Paragraph 4(d)(ii). Executive acknowledges and agrees that such
severance benefits constitute the exclusive remedy of Executive upon termination of employment
other than for cause. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, as a condition to
receiving such severance benefits, Executive shall be required to execute a full release of claims
in favor of Railway and KCSI and their affiliates in the form attached hereto and incorporated
herein by reference as Attachment A.

     (ii) Unless the provisions of Paragraph 7 of this Agreement are applicable, if Executive’s
employment is terminated under Paragraph 4(d)(i), Railway shall: (1) continue for a period of one
(1) year following such termination, to pay to Executive as severance pay a monthly amount equal to
one-twelfth (1/12th) of the annual base salary referenced in Paragraph 2(a), at the rate in effect
immediately prior to termination, and, (2) for a period of fifteen (15) months following such
termination, reimburse Executive for the cost (including state and federal income taxes payable
with respect to this reimbursement) of continuing the health insurance coverage provided pursuant
to this Agreement or obtaining health insurance coverage comparable to the health insurance
provided pursuant to this Agreement, and obtaining coverage comparable to the life insurance
provided pursuant to this Agreement, unless Executive is provided comparable health or life
insurance coverage in connection with other employment. The foregoing obligations of Railway shall
continue until the end of such respective one (1) year and fifteen (15)-month periods
notwithstanding the death or disability of Executive during said period (except, in the event of
death, the obligation to reimburse Executive for the cost of life insurance shall not continue). In
the year in which termination of employment occurs, Executive shall be eligible to receive benefits
under the Railway Incentive Compensation Plan and any Executive Plan in which Executive
participates (the “Executive Plan”) (if such Plans then are in existence and Executive was entitled
to participate immediately prior to termination) in accordance with the provisions of such plans
then applicable, and severance pay received in such year shall be taken into account for the
purpose of determining benefits, if any, under the Railway Incentive Compensation Plan but not
under the Executive Plan. After the year in which termination occurs, Executive shall not be
entitled to accrue or receive benefits under the Railway Incentive Compensation Plan or the
Executive Plan with respect to the severance pay provided herein, notwithstanding that benefits
under such plan there are still generally available to executive employees of Railway. After
termination of employment, Executive shall not be entitled to accrue or receive benefits under any
other employee benefit plan or program, except that Executive shall be entitled to participate in
the KCS Profit Sharing Plan, the KCS Employee Stock Ownership Plan and the KCS Section

2

 

401(k) Plan (if Railway employees then still participate in such plans) in the year
of termination of employment only if Executive meets all requirements of such plans for
participation in such year.

2. Paragraph 5 of the Agreement.

Paragraph 5 of the Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety with the following:

Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure.

     (a) Executive understands and agrees that he has been and will continue to be given
Confidential Information (as defined below) during his employment with Railway relating to the
business of Railway, KCSI and/or their affiliates, in exchange for his agreement herein.
Executive hereby expressly agrees to maintain in strictest confidence and not to use in any
way
(including without limitation in any future business relationship of Executive), publish,
disclose
or authorize anyone else to use, publish or disclose in any way, any Confidential Information

relating in any manner to the business or affairs of Railway, KCSI and/or their affiliates.
Executive agrees further not to remove or retain any figures, calculations, letters,
documents,
lists, papers, or copies thereof, which embody Confidential Information of Railway, KCSI
and/or
their affiliates, and to return, prior to Executive’s termination of employment for any
reason, any
such information in Executive’s possession. If Executive
discovers, or comes into possession
of,
any such information after his termination he shall promptly return it to Railway. Executive
acknowledges that the provisions of this paragraph are consistent with Railway’s policies and
procedures to which Executive, as an employee of Railway, is bound.

     (b) For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” includes, but is not
limited to, information in the possession of, prepared by, obtained by. compiled by. or that
is
used by Railway, KCSI or their affiliates or customers and (1) is proprietary to, about, or
created
by Railway, KCSI or their affiliates or customers; (2) gives Railway, KCSI or their affiliates
or
customers some competitive business advantage, the opportunity of obtaining such advantage, or
disclosure of which might be detrimental to the interest of Railway, KCSI or their affiliates
or
customers; and (3) is not typically disclosed by Railway, KCSI or their affiliates or
customers, or
known by persons who are not employed by Railway, KCSI or their affiliates or customers.
Without in any way limiting the foregoing and by way of example, Confidential Information
shall include: information pertaining to Railway’s, KCSI’s or their affiliates’ business
operations
such as financial and operational information and data, operational plans and strategies,
business
and marketing strategies, pricing information, plans for various
products and services, and acquisition and divestiture planning.

     (c) In the event of any breach of Paragraph 5 by Executive, Railway shall be entitled
to terminate any and all remaining severance benefits under Paragraph 4(d)(ii) and shall be
entitled to pursue such other legal and equitable remedies as may be available. Executive
acknowledges, understands and agrees that Railway, KCSI and/or their affiliates will suffer
immediate and irreparable harm if Executive fails to comply with any of his obligations under
Paragraph 5 of the Agreement, and that monetary damages alone will be inadequate to
compensate Railway, KCSI or their affiliates for such breach. Accordingly, Executive agrees
that

3

 

Railway, KCSI and/or their affiliates shall, in addition to any other remedies available
to it at law or in equity, be entitled to temporary, preliminary, and permanent injunctive relief
and specific performance to enforce the terms of Paragraph 5 without the necessity of proving
inadequacy of legal remedies or irreparable harm or posting bond.

3. Paragraph 6(a) of the Agreement.

Paragraph 6(a) of the Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety with the following:

     (a) Duties. Upon termination of this Agreement by Railway or Executive for any
reason, Executive shall immediately sign such written resignations from all positions as an
officer, director or member of any committee or board of Railway and all direct and indirect
subsidiaries and affiliates of Railway as may be requested by Railway and shall sign such other
documents and papers relating to Executive’s employment, benefits and benefit plans as Railway may
reasonably request.

3. Paragraph 7(e) of the Agreement

The parenthetical “(discounted to the then present value on the basis of a rate of seven percent
(7%) per annum)” is deleted from the first paragraph of paragraph 7(e).

5. Remainder of Agreement Unchanged

     Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Addendum, the Agreement shall remain
unchanged and in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Addendum to Employment Agreement as
of the 15 day of September 2004.

ATTACHMENT A

WAIVER AND RELEASE

In consideration of the benefits described in the Employment Agreement, I do hereby fully waive all
claims and release The Kansas City Southern Railway Company (KCSR), and its affiliates, parents,
subsidiaries, successors, assigns, directors and officers, fiduciaries, employees and agents, as
well as any employee benefit plans from liability and damages related in any way to any claim I may
have against KCS or KCSR. This Waiver and Release includes, but is not limited to all claims,
causes of action and rights under: Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended; the Civil
Rights Act of 1991; the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended; the Civil Rights
Act of 1866; the American with Disabilities Act of 1990; the Rehabilitation Act of 1973; the Older
Workers Benefit Protection Act of 1990; the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as
amended; the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act; the Family and Medical Leave Act;
the Federal Employers’ Liability Act; the Railway Labor Act, including bumping rights, rights to
file a grievance, rights to a hearing (whether before any company official, any system, group,
regional or special adjustment board, the National Railroad Adjustment Board, or any other entity),
and any rights to arbitration thereunder; the Missouri Human Rights Act, the Kansas Act Against
Discrimination, the Kansas and Missouri Workers’ Compensation acts, and all local state and federal
statutes and regulations; all claims arising from labor protective conditions imposed by the
Interstate Commerce Commission or the Surface Transportation Board; any KCSR incentive or benefit
plan or program, and any rights under any collective bargaining agreement, including seniority
rights, bumping rights and reinstatement rights, rights to file or assert a grievance or other
complaint, rights to a hearing, or rights to arbitration under such agreement; and all rights under
common law such as breach of contract, tort or personal injury of any sort.

I understand that this Waiver and Release also precludes me from recovering any relief as a result
of any lawsuit, grievance or claims brought on my behalf and arising out of my employment or
resignation of, or separation from employment, provided that nothing in this Waiver and this
Release may affect my entitlement, if any, to workers’ compensation or unemployment compensation.
Additionally, nothing in this Waiver and Release prohibits me from communications with, filing a
complaint with, or full cooperation in the investigations of, any governmental agency on matters
within their jurisdictions. However, as stated above, this Waiver and Release does prohibit me from
recovering any relief, including monetary relief, as a result of such activities.

If any term, provision, covenant, or restriction of this Waiver and Release is held by a court of
competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Waiver and
Release and the other terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions hereof shall remain in full
force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated. I understand and agree
that, in the event of breach by me of any of the terms and conditions of this Waiver and Release,
the Railway will be entitled to recover all costs and expenses as a result of my breach, including
but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs.

ADDENDUM TO EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

     This
Addendum to Employment Agreement (“Addendum”) dated this 12th day of February, 2009 is
between The Kansas City Southern Railway Company, a Missouri corporation (“KCSR” or “Railway” or
the “Company”), Kansas City Southern, a Delaware corporation (“KCS”) and Scott E. Arvidson, an
individual (“Executive”) (collectively, the “Parties”)).

     WHEREAS, Executive, KCSR and KCS previously entered into an Employment Agreement executed as
of May 1, 2000, an Amendment to Employment Agreement executed as of January 1, 2001, and an
Addendum to Employment Agreement executed September 15, 2004 (collectively, the “Agreement”), which
Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions of Executive’s employment with KCSR; and

     WHEREAS, the Parties desire to amend the Agreement in part for purposes of compliance with
Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and guidance issued thereunder and
in certain other respects.

     NOW, THEREFORE, the Parties hereby agree to the following amendments to the Agreement
effective January 1, 2009:

     1. Paragraph 1 of the Agreement is deleted and replaced with the following paragraph:

     Employment. The Company employs Executive as its Executive Vice President & Chief
Information Officer. Executive serves at the pleasure of the Board of Directors of the Company
(the “Company Board”) and has and will have such titles, duties, powers and responsibilities as may
be prescribed or delegated from time to time by the President of the Company, or other officer to
whom Executive reports, subject to the powers vested in the Company Board. Executive shall
faithfully perform Executive’s duties under this Agreement to the best of Executive’s ability and
Executive shall devote substantially all of Executive’s working time and efforts to the business
and affairs of the Company and its subsidiaries, affiliates and joint ventures.

     2. Paragraph 4(a) (“Termination by Executive”) of the Agreement is hereby amended by the
addition of the following new phrase at the end thereof:

provided, however, that the Company’s obligation to pay severance benefits shall be subject
to Paragraph 7(f) (“Resignation After Control Change Date”), including, but not limited to,
the notice provisions set forth therein.

     3. The first two sentences of subparagraph (ii) of Paragraph 4(d) (“Termination by Railway
Other Than For Cause”) of the Agreement are hereby deleted and replaced with the following new
sentences:

          (ii) Unless the provisions of Paragraph 7 (“Continuation of Employment Upon
Change in Control”) of this Agreement are applicable, if Executive’s employment is
terminated under Paragraph 4(d)(i), then, subject to

 

Executive’s execution of the release referenced in Paragraph 4(d)(i), (1) the
Company shall, within seventy-five (75) days following such termination, pay to
Executive a lump sum amount equal to twelve (12) months of the annual base salary
referenced in Paragraph 2(a), at the rate in effect immediately prior to
termination; provided that, in the event the release referenced in Paragraph 4(d)(i)
above is not timely executed by Executive so as to permit payment under this clause,
the Company shall have no obligation to make payment under this clause; (2) the
Company shall, if Executive elects continued group health coverage for himself and
his eligible dependents pursuant to COBRA, pay the related premium for such coverage
for a period of fifteen (15) months following such termination; and (3) the Company
shall, for a period of fifteen (15) months following such termination, reimburse
Executive for the cost of life insurance coverage comparable to the coverage
provided under this Agreement. The obligations of the Company under (2) and (3)
above shall include a reimbursement of state and federal income taxes payable in
connection therewith and shall continue until the end of the fifteen (15)-month
period notwithstanding the death or disability of Executive during said period
(except, in the event of death, the obligation to reimburse Executive for the cost
of life insurance shall not continue); provided, however, the Company’s obligation
under (2) and (3) above shall terminate as of the date Executive is provided
comparable life or health insurance coverage in connection with other employment if
earlier than the end of the fifteen (15)-month period.

     4. Paragraph 7(c) (“Payment”) is hereby deleted in its entirety.

     5. Paragraph 7(f) is hereby deleted and replaced with the following new Paragraph 7(f):

          (f) Resignation After Control Change Date. In the event of a Change in Control
as defined in Paragraph 7(d), thereafter, upon good reason (as defined below), Executive
may, at any time during the three (3)-year period following the Change in Control, in his
sole discretion, resign his employment with the Company only if: (1) Executive provides
written notice to the Secretary of the Company within ninety (90) days after the initial
occurrence of a good reason event describing in detail the event and stating that
Executive’s employment will terminate upon a specified date in such notice (the “Good Reason
Termination Date”), which date is not earlier than thirty (30) days after the date such
notice is provided to the Company (the “Notice Delivery Date”) and not later than ninety
(90) days after the Notice Delivery Date, and (2) the Company does not remedy the event
prior to the Good Reason Termination Date. Within five (5) days after the Good Reason
Termination Date, the Company shall pay to Executive his full Base Salary through such Good
Reason Termination Date, to the extent not theretofore paid, plus a lump sum amount equal to
the Special Severance Payment (computed as provided in the first sentence of Paragraph 7(e),
except that for purposes of such computation all references to “Termination” shall be deemed
to be references to “Good Reason Termination Date”). Upon the Good Reason Termination Date
of Executive, Specified Benefits to which Executive was entitled immediately prior to the
Good Reason Termination Date shall continue or be reimbursed on the same terms and
conditions as provided in Paragraph 7(e) in the case of Termination (including equivalent
payments

- 2 -

 

provided for therein) and Post-Period Benefits shall be provided on the same terms and
conditions as provided in Paragraph 7(e) in the case of Termination. For purposes of this
Agreement, Executive shall have “good reason” if there occurs without his consent:

          (i) the assignment to the Executive of any duties inconsistent in any adverse
respect with the Executive’s position (including offices, titles, reporting
requirements or responsibilities), authority or duties as contemplated by Section
7(a)(i), or any other action by the Company which results in a diminution or other
material adverse change in such position, authority or duties;

          (ii) any failure by the Company to comply with any of the provisions of
Paragraph 7;

          (iii) a material change in the geographic location at which the Executive must
perform his services under this Agreement from the location described in Section
7(a)(ii);

          (iv) a material diminution in Executive’s base compensation; and

          (v) any other action or inaction by the Company which constitutes a material
breach of this Agreement.

     Provided, however, that Paragraph 7(f) of Executive’s Employment Agreement dated May 1, 2000, shall
continue for the sole purpose of determining Executive’s entitlement to Post-Period Benefits, as if
such paragraph had not been deleted.

     6. The following new Paragraph 16 is added to the Agreement:

          16. Restrictive Covenants.

          (a) Executive agrees that for a period of time beginning upon Executive’s termination
of employment from the Company (the “Termination Date”) and continuing for a period of one
(1) year, Executive shall not:

          (i) directly or indirectly, either individually or as a principal, partner,
agent, employee, employer, consultant, stockholder, member, partner, joint venturer,
or investor, or as a director, manager or officer of any corporation or association,
or in any other manner or capacity whatsoever, engage in, assist or have any active
interest in a business, located anywhere in the geographic area then served by the
Company, or by its subsidiaries or joint ventures or by KCS or its subsidiaries or
joint ventures (“Affiliates”), that competes with or engages in the business
conducted by the Company or its Affiliates on the date hereof or at any time through
the Termination Date.

          (ii) directly or indirectly, either individually, or as a principal, partner,
agent, employee, employer, consultant, stockholder, joint venturer, or investor, or
as a director or officer of any corporation or association, (1) divert or attempt to
divert (by solicitation or otherwise) from the Company or its Affiliates any
business with any customer, prospective customer or account of the Company or its
Affiliates with which Executive had any contact or association, which was under
Executive’s supervision, or the identity of which was learned by Executive as a
result of his/her employment with the Company; (2) accept the business of

- 3 -

 

any customer, prospective customer or account of the Company or its Affiliates
with whom Executive had any contact or association, which was under Executive’s
supervision, or the identity of which was learned by Executive as a result of
his/her employment with the Company, whether or not solicited by Executive; or (3)
induce, solicit, or cause any employee of the Company or its Affiliates to leave the
employ of the Company or its Affiliates.

          (iii) except that these Restrictive Covenants shall not apply in the event of a Change in
Control as defined in Paragraph 7(d).

          (b) Executive acknowledges that any breach of the restrictive covenants contained in
Paragraph 16(a) (the “Restrictive Covenants”) would cause irreparable injury to the
Company or KCS and that its remedy at law would be inadequate and, accordingly, consents
to and agrees that temporary and permanent injunctive relief may be granted, without bond,
in any proceeding which may be brought to enforce the Restrictive Covenants, without the
necessity of proof of actual damage. This right to an injunction shall not prohibit the
Company or KCS from pursuing any other remedies available to it including, but not limited
to, the recovery of damages. Executive further agrees that the Company or KCS may provide
a copy of this Agreement to any prospective employer of Executive that the Company or KCS
believes is a competitor.

          (c) If Executive violates the Restrictive Covenants, Executive (i) shall forfeit all
right to future benefits under this Agreement; (ii) shall refund to the Company or KCS (as
the case may be) any severance and benefits paid by the Company or KCS; (iii) shall pay
reasonable attorneys’ fees and all other costs incurred by the Company or KCS as a result
of Executive’s breach; and (iv) acknowledges that the Company or KCS may pursue any other
remedies available to it as a result of Executive’s breach including, but not limited to,
the recovery of damages.

     7. The following new Paragraph 17 is added to the Agreement:

          17. Code Section 409A.

          (a) To extent that the Executive would otherwise be entitled to any payment or
benefit under this Agreement that constitutes deferred compensation within the meaning of
Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Section 409A”) and that if
paid during the six months beginning on the date of Executive’s termination of employment
would be subject to additional taxes and penalties under Section 409A (“409A Penalties”)
because the Executive is a specified employee (within the meaning of Section 409A), then,
except to the extent specifically addressed under a separate plan or arrangement of the
Company or of KCS, the payment will be paid to the Executive on the earliest of the
six-month anniversary of the termination of employment, a change in ownership or effective
control of the Company (within the meaning of Section 409A) or the Executive’s death. In
addition, any payment or benefit due upon a termination of employment that represents a
“deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A shall be paid or provided to
the Executive only upon a “separation from service” as defined in Treas. Reg. 1.409A-1(h).
To the extent applicable, each severance payment made under this Agreement shall be
deemed to be a separate payment, and amounts payable under this Agreement shall be deemed
not to be a “deferral of compensation” subject to Section

- 4 -

 

409A to the extent provided in the exceptions in Treas. Reg. 1.409A-1(b)(4)
(“short-term deferrals”) and (b)(9) (“separation pay plans,” including the exception under
subparagraph (iii)) and other applicable provisions of Treas. Reg. 1.409A-1 through
1.409A-6.

          (b) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to the extent any expense
reimbursement or the provision of any in-kind benefit under this Agreement is determined
to be subject to Section 409A, the amount of any such expenses eligible for reimbursement,
or the provision of any in-kind benefit, in one calendar year shall not affect the
expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other calendar year (except for any life-time
or other aggregate limitation applicable to medical expenses), in no event shall any
expenses be reimbursed after the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year
in which the Executive incurred such expenses, and in no event shall any right to
reimbursement or the provision of any in-kind benefit be subject to liquidation or
exchange for another benefit.

     8. Attachment A to the Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced with the new Attachment A
attached hereto.

     Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Addendum, including Attachment A, the
Agreement shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Addendum to Employment Agreement as of the
date set forth above, but effective as of January 1, 2009.
