In the event that the removal of the Surplus Equipment (the Removal Work) by the Removal Deadline is not reasonably practicable, Landlord shall prosecute the Removal Work diligently until completion. Landlord and Tenant shall coordinate the Removal Work with Tenants on-site preparations so as to enable Tenant to initiate manufacturing operations at the Premises as soon as reasonably possible. Landlord may perform the Removal Work through the use of Landlords internal forces (such internal forces of Landlord to be provided at no charge to Tenant) and third party-contractors selected by Landlord, and Landlord and Tenant shall cooperate with each other in connection with the administration of all individuals retained, and agreements executed, pursuant to the Removal Work.

payment of one or more Removal Work Invoices, Landlord shall grant Tenant a credit for the amount of such Removal Work Invoices against the next due future installments of monthly base rental until Tenant has been reimbursed fully for its payment of the Removal Work Invoices. Such abatement of monthly base rent shall be in addition to, and not concurrent with, any and all other abatement of monthly base rent which Landlord may be otherwise obligated to provide to Tenant. Such documentation of payments may include: (i) copies of executed contracts; (ii) copies of invoices for labor, services and/or materials marked Paid, copies of bills of lading, and/or copies of other bills or receipts for goods, materials and/or services marked Paid; (iii) copies of canceled checks; and (iv) such other proofs of payments as may be reasonably requested by Landlord.
The Land and the Improvements are collectively referred to herein as the Premises. This Lease is subject to all encumbrances, easements, conditions, covenants and restrictions, whether or not of record.
The Premises, excluding the Parking Area, shall be used for the manufacture, repair and shipment of rail cars and all uses incidental thereto and no other purpose. The Parking Area shall be used solely for the parking of vehicles by Tenants employees, agents, contractors and invitees (collectively Tenants Personnel) and no other purpose, and Tenants Personnel shall have a non-exclusive license over the footbridge and pathways shown on Exhibit A attached hereto for pedestrian access between the Parking Area and the remainder of the Premises. The Premises shall not be used for any illegal purposes, for the storage of unlicensed vehicles, nor in any manner to create any nuisance or trespass. No smoking is permitted in or about the Premises. Landlord reserves unto itself and its permittees, the permanent right to construct, maintain or replace upon, under, or over the Premises, any pipe, electrical, telecommunications, and signal lines, or any other facilities of like character now installed or hereinafter to be installed, all at no expense to Tenant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Landlords exercise of the rights set forth in the preceding sentence shall be done in such a manner as to not burden Tenants operations with commercially unreasonable inconvenience.
The terms and conditions of the Rider, if any, attached hereto as Exhibit B are incorporated herein by this reference. In the event of an inconsistency between the terms hereof and the terms of the Rider, the terms of the Rider shall prevail.

Base rental shall be due in advance. Except in the event of default, base rental for any partial rental periods shall be prorated. The acceptance by Landlord of base rental shall not constitute a waiver of any of Landlords rights or remedies under this Lease. All payments of base rental, and any additional rental payable hereunder, shall be sent to the Treasurer of Landlord at P.O. Box 116944, Atlanta, Georgia 30368-6944, or such other address as Landlord may designate in any invoice delivered to Tenant. Prior to or simultaneously with Tenants execution of this Lease, Tenant has paid to Landlord the first installment of base rental due hereunder. In the event Tenant fails to pay base rental or any other payment called for under this Lease on or before the due date and Tenants failure to pay continues for more than ten (10) days after Tenants receipt of written notice from Landlord, then Tenant shall pay a late charge equal to two percent (2 %) of the unpaid amount. In addition, any sum not paid within thirty (30) days of its due date shall accrue interest thereafter until paid at the rate per annum equal to the lesser of (a) the highest interest rate permitted by applicable law; or (b) ten percent (10%).
4. Utilities. Except as otherwise set forth in the Rider attached hereto, Landlord shall have no obligation to provide light, water, heat, air conditioning or any other utilities or services to the Premises. Except as otherwise set forth in the Rider attached hereto, Tenant shall place any and all utility and service related bills in its name and shall timely pay the same, along with all assessments or other governmental fees or charges pertaining to the Premises. If Tenant does not pay same, Landlord may (but shall not be obligated to) pay the same, including any and all late fees and penalties, and such payment shall be added to and treated as additional rental of the Premises.
5. Maintenance and Repairs. Tenant, at its sole cost, shall keep and maintain all of the Premises (including, but not limited to, all structural and non-structural components thereof, all systems and the Equipment) in the same condition as when first received, normal wear and tear excepted, and shall keep the interiors of the buildings in the Premises free of pests and rodents. All Planned Capital Improvements (as hereinafter defined) and Additional Capital Improvements (as hereinafter defined) shall be kept in good order and repair (including replacements). Tenant hereby waives (a) any rights at law or in equity to require Landlord to perform any repair, replacement or maintenance to the Premises, and (b) any right to abate rental or terminate this Lease due to the failure by Landlord to perform any repairs, replacements or maintenance. Tenant shall not create any lien, charge or encumbrance upon the Premises, and Tenant shall promptly remove or bond over any such lien, charge or encumbrance.
6. Modifications and Alterations to the Premises. Tenant shall make no modifications, alterations or improvements to the Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, except for the Planned Capital Improvements described in Paragraph 6 of Exhibit B of this Lease, Landlords consent shall not be required for non-structural modifications, alterations or improvements which cost less than $50,000.00; provided, however, Tenant shall provide Landlord with written notice of such
3
modifications, alterations or improvements not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the commencement thereof along with copies of plans, specifications and other materials describing such work in reasonable detail. Any modifications or alterations consented to by Landlord shall be completed in a good, workmanlike and lien-free manner, in accordance with all applicable laws, codes, regulations and ordinances and by contractors approved by Landlord. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties hereto, any alterations or improvements to the Premises made by Tenant shall become the property of Landlord; provided, however, Landlord, at its option, may require Tenant to remove any improvements or repair any alterations in order to restore the Premises to the condition existing at the time Tenant took possession. Tenant, at the time it requests approval for a proposed alteration, may request in writing that Landlord advise Tenant whether the alteration or any portion of the alteration must be removed at the end of the Lease term. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of Tenants request, Landlord shall advise Tenant in writing as to which portions of the alteration are required to be removed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may remove any moveable equipment or trade fixtures owned by Tenant during the term of this Lease, provided that any damage caused by such removal shall be repaired by Tenant in a manner acceptable to Landlord.
7. Return of Premises. Except as specifically provided herein, Tenant agrees to return the Premises to Landlord at the expiration or prior termination of this Lease in the same condition and repair as when first received, normal wear and tear excepted. Tenant agrees to remove its moveable equipment and trade fixtures from the Premises at the expiration or prior termination of this Lease. Tenant shall immediately repair any damage arising out of any such removal in a manner reasonably acceptable to Landlord.
8. Destruction of or Damage to Premises. If the whole or any part of the Premises shall be damaged or destroyed by any casualty, then the base rental payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder shall be equitably abated or adjusted, as the case may be, in light of the impairment to that portion of the Premises of which Tenant is deprived on account of such damage or destruction or the work of repair, restoration, replacement or rebuilding. In the event of any damage to any portion of the Premises, except with respect to those structural components of the roof, foundation and exterior walls of the Improvements for which Landlord is responsible pursuant to Paragraph 9 of Exhibit B attached hereto, Tenant shall immediately repair, restore, replace or rebuild the Premises to substantially the condition in which the Premises were immediately before such damage or destruction, in accordance with the specifications reasonably approved by Landlord. Tenant shall diligently execute such repair, restoration, replacement or rebuilding without delay or interruption. Without limiting that obligation of Tenant, Landlord shall make available to Tenant any proceeds that Landlord actually has received from the property insurance policy described in Paragraph 21 below in connection with such damage or destruction; provided, however, Landlord shall not be obligated to pay to Tenant more than the total cost of such repairs and restoration (as evidenced by paid invoices delivered to Landlord). All such repairs and restoration shall be performed by contractors reasonably approved by Landlord and shall be performed in a good, workmanlike and lien-free manner in accordance with plans and specifications approved by Landlord. Landlord shall be entitled to require performance bonds or other similar protections to protect Landlords interest in the Premises from becoming subject to any mechanics or materialmen liens. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if that damage or destruction occurs during the last three (3) years of the Term and the estimated cost to repair exceeds twenty-five percent (25 per cent) of the full replacement cost of the Premises, or damage to the Premises renders the Premises unusable for Tenants purposes, either Landlord or Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease by written notice served on the other party within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such damage or destruction. On such termination, base rental, Taxes (as hereinafter defined) and any other
4
sums payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder shall be prorated as of the termination date. If all or substantially all of the Premises are destroyed by storm, fire, lightning, earthquake or other casualty, this Lease shall terminate as of the date of such destruction, and rental shall be accounted for as between Landlord and Tenant as of that date. In the event of such termination, rental shall be prorated and paid up to the date of such casualty. In no event shall Tenant have any right to terminate this Lease if the casualty in question was caused or contributed to by Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors or invitees.
9. Indemnity. Except to the extent caused by Landlords negligence, intentional misconduct or breach of this Lease, Tenant agrees to indemnify, defend and save harmless Landlord, Landlords parent companies, subsidiaries, affiliates, lessors, licensors, and subsidiaries of parent companies (collectively the Landlord Related Entities) and Landlords and Landlords Related Entities officers, directors, members, shareholders, lenders, agents and employees (collectively the Landlord Entities) against all claims (including but not limited to claims for bodily injury, death or property damage), economic losses, liabilities, costs, injuries, damages, actions, mechanics liens, losses and expenses (including but not limited to reasonable attorneys fees and costs) to whomsoever, including, but not limited to, Tenants agents, workmen, servants or employees (collectively, Tenant Claims) to the extent caused by Tenants negligence, intentional misconduct or breach of this Lease or otherwise arising out of or relating to Tenants use or occupancy of the Premises.
Except to the extent of Tenants negligence, intentional misconduct or breach of this Lease, Landlord agrees to indemnify, defend and save harmless Tenant, Tenants parent companies, subsidiaries, affiliates, lessors, licensors, and subsidiaries of parent companies (collectively the Tenant Related Entities) and Tenants and Tenants Related Entities officers, directors, members, shareholders, lenders, agents and employees (collectively the Tenant Entities) against all claims (including but not limited to claims for bodily injury, death or property damage), economic losses, liabilities, costs, injuries, damages, actions, mechanics liens, losses and expenses (including but not limited to reasonable attorneys fees and costs) to whomsoever, including, but not limited to, Landlords agents, workmen, servants or employees, (collectively, Landlord Claims) to the extent caused by Landlords negligence, intentional misconduct or breach of this Lease.
10. Governmental Orders. Tenant agrees, at its own expense, to comply with all laws, orders, regulations, ordinances or restrictions applicable by reason of Tenants use or occupancy of the Premises or operation of its business, except that the correction of any violations that existed prior to the first day of the term of this Lease shall be corrected at the sole expense of Landlord except to the extent that such violations were known to Tenant and exacerbated by activities at the Premises performed by or on behalf of Tenant.
11. Condemnation. If all or a portion of the Premises shall be condemned by any legally constituted authority for any public use or purpose, or sold under threat of condemnation, then this Lease shall terminate as to the part so taken as of the date of taken, and, in the case of a partial taking, either Landlord or Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease as to the balance of the Premises by written notice to the other within thirty (30) days after such date; provided, however, that a condition to the exercise by Tenant if such right to terminate shall be that the portion of the Premises taken shall be of such extent and nature as to render the Premises unusable for Tenants purposes. All condemnation awards shall belong to Landlord; provided, however, to the extent permitted under applicable law, Tenant shall be entitled to file a separate claim against the condemning authority for loss of its personal property and moving expenses so long as the filing of such claim does not affect or reduce Landlords claim as to such awards or proceeds. In the event of a partial taking of the Premises that does not result in a
5
termination of the Lease, base rental, Taxes and any other sums payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder shall be equitably reduced, as reasonable determined by Landlord.
12. Assignment. Tenant may not assign this Lease or any interest thereunder or sublet the Premises in whole or in part or allow all or a portion of the Premises to be used by a third party without the prior written consent of Landlord. If Tenant is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity, the transfer of more than fifty percent (50%) of the ownership interests of Tenant or the transfer of a lesser percentage which results in a transfer of control of Tenant (WHICH INCLUDES, WITHOUT LIMITATION, TRANSACTIONS IN WHICH TENANT SELLS ITS BUSINESS, SELLS ALL OR SUBSTANTIALLY ALL OF THE ASSETS OF ITS BUSINESS OR MERGES OR CONSOLIDATES WITH ANOTHER ENTITY), whether in one transaction or a series of related transactions, shall constitute an assignment for purposes of this Lease. All requests for an assignment or sublease shall be accompanied by a copy of the proposed business terms and an administrative fee in the amount of $750.00. Any assignee shall become liable directly to Landlord for all obligations of Tenant hereunder. No such assignment or sublease nor any subsequent amendment of this Lease shall release Tenant or any guarantor of Tenants obligations hereunder. If any such subtenant or assignee pays rental in excess of the rental due hereunder or if Tenant receives any other consideration on account of any such assignment or sublease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rental, one-half of such excess rental or other consideration (net of related expenses) upon the receipt thereof. Any assignment or sublease made in violation of this Paragraph 12 shall be void and shall constitute a default hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided that Tenant is not then in default of this Lease beyond any applicable period for the cure thereof, Tenant shall be entitled to assign this Lease in connection with a merger, consolidation, recapitalization or other business combination transaction, without Landlords consent, but only after written notice to Landlord and after paying to Landlord the administrative fee described above, provided that the tangible net worth of the surviving entity in any such merger, consolidation or business reorganization transaction is not less than the tangible net worth of Tenant immediately prior to such transaction and such surviving entity executes an agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord, which memorializes that such surviving corporation shall be fully liable for the performance of the obligations of Tenant under this Lease. If requested by Landlord, Tenant shall provided Landlord audited or certified financial statements to evidence the satisfaction of the tangible net worth requirement provided above.
Landlord will not unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to a proposed assignment or sublease. In determining the reasonableness of Landlords decision to withhold or grant its consent to any proposed assignment or sublease, Landlord may take into consideration all relevant factors surrounding the proposed assignment or sublease, including, without limitation, the following:
(a) | The business reputation of the proposed subtenant or assignee and its officer or directors. |
(b) | The nature of the business and the proposed use of the Premises by the proposed subtenant or assignee in relation to restrictions, if any, affecting the Premises. |
(c) | The financial condition of the proposed subtenant or assignee. |
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Paragraph 12, a public offering of equity securities of Tenant which results in Tenants stock being traded on a securities exchange, including, but
6
not limited to, the NYSE, the NASDAQ Stock Market or the NASDAQ Small Cap Market System, shall not be considered an assignment, sublease or other such transaction for purposes of this Lease.
13. Environmental. Tenant covenants that neither Tenant, nor any of its agents, employees, contractors or invitees shall cause any aboveground or underground storage tanks or associated piping (collectively Tanks) to be located on or under the Premises or any Hazardous Materials (as hereinafter defined) to be stored or handled on the Premises, except that Tenant may bring onto the Premises for its use in its operations commercial products (identified by name or type in Exhibit G attached hereto) as long as such use and incidental storage is done in compliance with applicable Environmental Laws, as that term is defined below. Tenant shall comply, at its own expense, with any and all applicable laws, ordinances, rules, regulations and requirements respecting solid waste, hazardous waste, air, water, pollution or otherwise relating to the environment or health and safety (collectively Environmental Laws). Tenant shall not under any circumstance treat, release or dispose of trash, debris or wastes or Hazardous Materials on the Premises and will not conduct any activities on the Premises which require a hazardous waste treatment, storage or disposal permit. As used herein, the term Hazardous Materials means asbestos, polychlorinated biphenyls, oil, gasoline or other petroleum based liquids, and any and all other materials or substances deemed hazardous or toxic or regulated by applicable laws, including but not limited to substances defined as hazardous under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 6901 et seq. (or any state counterpart to the foregoing statutes) or determined to present the unreasonable risk of injury to health or the environment under the Toxic Substances Control Act, as amended, 15 U.S.C. 2601 et seq. In addition, Landlord requires that Tenant obtain in Tenants own name all environmental permits Tenant must have to conduct its operations on the Premises. It is expressly understood that Tenant cannot use any environmental permits that may have been issued to Landlord to conduct Tenants operations, and Tenant likewise cannot convey any process water discharges to or through Landlords wastewater treatment plant. However, the foregoing permit restriction does not apply to the provision of certain utilities by Landlord to Tenant as set forth in Paragraph 4 of Exhibit B attached hereto to the extent Landlord can provide same as contemplated by said provision.
Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold the Landlord Entities harmless from and against any and all claims, judgments, damages, penalties, fines, costs (including without limitation, consultants fees, experts fees, reasonable attorneys fees, investigation and cleanup costs and courts costs), liabilities or losses resulting from (1) the storage, handling, treatment, release, disposal, presence or use of Hazardous Materials in, on or about the Premises from and after the date of this Lease or (2) the violation by Tenant of any provision of any Environmental Laws. Landlord shall indemnify, defend and hold the Tenant Entities harmless from and against any and all claims, judgments, damages, penalties, fines, costs (including without limitation, consultants fees, experts fees, reasonable attorneys fees, investigation and cleanup costs and courts costs), liabilities or losses resulting from (1) the storage, handling, treatment, release, disposal, presence or use of Hazardous Materials in, on or about the Premises prior to the date of this Lease or (2) the violation by Landlord of any provision of any Environmental Laws pertaining to the Premises that occurred prior to the date of this Lease.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing indemnity, in the event Landlord has reason to believe that the covenants set forth in this Paragraph 13 have been violated by Tenant, Landlord shall be entitled, at Tenants sole expense, to take such actions as Landlord deems necessary in order to assess, contain, delineate and/or remediate any condition created by such violation. Any sums expended by Landlord shall be reimbursed by Tenant, as additional rental, within thirty (30) days after demand therefor by Landlord. Landlord has the right to enter the Premises at all reasonable times for purposes of inspecting
7
the Premises in order to evaluate Tenants compliance with the convenants of this Paragraph 13. In the event Tenant delivers or receives any notices or materials from any governmental or quasi-governmental entity and such notices or materials relate to Tanks or Hazardous Materials in, on or about the Premises, Tenant shall immediately send to Landlord a copy of such notices or materials. Tenant shall also provide Landlord with a detailed report relating to any release of a Hazardous Material in, on or about the Premises whenever such release is required to be reported to governmental authorities pursuant to the Environmental Laws. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Landlord shall have the right to cause to be performed such environmental studies of the Premises by an environmental consultant as are necessary to determine whether any Hazardous Materials have been stored, handled, treated, released, brought upon or disposed of on the Premises during the term of this Lease in violation of the terms hereof. If any such study reveals any violation of this Lease by Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors or invitees, Tenant shall promptly reimburse Landlord for the costs of such studies and Tenant shall immediately undertake a further investigation, if necessary, and remediation of such contamination. Landlord may undertake such investigation and remediation if Tenant fails to do so within a reasonable time frame, in which case Tenant shall promptly reimburse Landlord for the cost of same within thirty (30) days after demand therefore by Landlord. The obligations of this Paragraph 13 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.
14. Default; Remedies. In the event (i) any payment of rental or other sum due hereunder is not paid within ten (10) days after Tenants receipt of written notice that such sum was not paid by the due date thereof; (ii) Tenant shall fail to comply with any term, provision, condition or covenant of this Lease, other than an obligation requiring the payment of rental or other sums hereunder, and shall not cure such failure within thirty (30) days after notice to the Tenant of such failure to comply, or if such failure cannot reasonably be cured within such thirty (30) day period, then Tenant shall have failed to commence such cure within thirty (30) days after notice, diligently pursued such cure thereafter and completed such cure not later than ninety (90) days after notice; (iii) Tenant shall attempt to violate or violate Paragraph 12 above; or (iv) Tenant shall file a petition under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law or have any involuntary petition filed thereunder against it, then Landlord, in addition to any remedy available at law or in equity, shall have the option to do any one or more of the following:
(a) Terminate this Lease, in which event Tenant shall immediately surrender the Premises to Landlord. Tenant agrees to indemnify the Landlord Entities for all loss, damage and expense which Landlord may suffer by reason of such termination.
(b) Without terminating this Lease, terminate Tenants right of possession, whereupon rental shall continue to accrue and be owed by Tenant hereunder. Thereafter, at Landlords option, Landlord may enter upon and relet all or a portion of the Premises (or relet the Premises together with any additional space) for a term longer or shorter than the remaining term hereunder and otherwise on terms satisfactory to Landlord. Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for the deficiency, if any, between Tenants rental hereunder and all net sums received by Landlord on account of such reletting (after deducting all costs incurred by Landlord in connection with any such reletting, including without limitation, tenant improvement costs, brokerage commissions and attorneys fees).
(c) Pursue a dispossessory, eviction or other similar action against Tenant, in which event Tenant shall remain liable for all amounts owed hereunder, including amounts accruing hereunder from and after the date that a writ of possession is issued.
8
(d) Perform any unperformed obligation of Tenant, including, but not limited to, cleaning up any trash, debris or property remaining in or about the Premises upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. Any sums expended by Landlord shall be repaid by Tenant, as additional rental, within ten (10) days after demand therefor by Landlord.
Pursuit of any of the foregoing remedies shall not preclude pursuit of any other remedies available at law or in equity. Tenant agrees to pay all costs and expenses, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys fees and consultants fees, incurred by Landlord in connection with enforcing the performance of any of the provisions of this Lease, whether suit is actually filed or not. Acceptance of rental or any other sums paid by Tenant shall not constitute the waiver by Landlord of any of the terms of this Lease or any default by Tenant hereunder. Landlord shall be required to mitigate damages only to the extent required by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia. If the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia require Landlord to mitigate damages then (i) Landlord shall have no obligation to treat preferentially the Premises compared to other premises Landlord has available for leasing; (ii) Landlord shall not be obligated to expend any efforts or any monies beyond those Landlord would expend in the ordinary course of leasing space; and (iii) in evaluating a prospective reletting of the Premises, the term, rental, use and the reputation, experience and financial standing of prospective tenants are factors which Landlord may properly consider.
15. Signs; Entry by Landlord. Landlord may place For Lease signs upon the Premises one hundred twenty (120) days before the termination of this Lease and may place For Sale signs upon the Premises at any time. Landlord may enter the Premises with prior notice to Tenant at reasonable hours during the term of this Lease (a) to show the same to prospective purchasers or tenants, (b) to make repairs to Landlords adjoining property, if any, (c) to inspect the Premises in order to evaluate Tenants compliance with the convenants set forth in this Lease, or (d) to perform activities otherwise permitted or contemplated hereby.
16. No Estate in Land. This Lease shall create the relationship of landlord and tenant between Landlord and Tenant; Tenants interest is not assignable by Tenant except as provided in Paragraph 12, above.
17. Holding Over. If Tenant remains in possession of the Premises after expiration or earlier termination of the term hereof with Landlords written consent, Tenant shall be a month-to-month tenant upon all the same terms and conditions as contained in this Lease, and there shall be no renewal of this Lease by operation of law. Such month-to-month tenancy shall be terminable upon thirty (30) days written notice by either party to the other. Tenant waives any right that it may have to additional notice pursuant to applicable law. If Tenant remains in possession of the Premises after the expiration or earlier termination of the term hereof without Landlords written consent, Tenant shall be a tenant at sufferance subject to immediate eviction. In such event, in addition to paying Landlord any damages resulting from such holdover, Tenant shall pay base rental at the rate of one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the then current base rental; ***. In such circumstance, acceptance of base rental by Landlord shall not constitute consent or agreement by Landlord to Tenants holding over and shall not waive Landlords right to evict Tenant immediately.
18. Notices. Any notice given pursuant to this Lease shall be in writing and sent by certified mail, return receipt requested, by hand delivery or by reputable overnight courier to:
(a) Landlord: c/o Director Real Estate, Norfolk Southern Corporation, 1200 Peachtree Street, NE, 12th Floor, Atlanta, Georgia 30309, Facsimile No.: 404 ###-###-#### and c/o AVP Material Management, 110 Franklin Road, SE, Box 72, Roanoke, Virginia 24042, Facsimile No. 540 ###-###-####, or at such other address as Landlord may designate in writing to Tenant.

Any change of notice address by either party shall be delivered to the other party by the manner of notice required hereby.
19. Track Clearance. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease, and irrespective of the sole, joint, or concurring negligence of Landlord, Tenant shall assume sole responsibility for and shall indemnify, save harmless and defend the Landlord Entities from and against all claims, actions or legal proceedings arising, in whole or in part, from the conduct of Tenants operations, or the placement of Tenants fixtures, equipment or other property, within twenty-five feet (25) of Landlords tracks, if any, located on or adjacent to the Premises. In this connection it is specifically understood that knowledge on the part of Landlord of a violation of the foregoing clearance requirement, whether such knowledge is actual or implied, shall not constitute a waiver and shall not relieve Tenant of its obligations to indemnify the Landlord Entities for losses and claims resulting from any such violation.
20. Brokerage. Landlord and Tenant hereby covenant and agree to indemnify and hold the other harmless from and against any and all loss, liability, damage, claim, judgment, cost and expense (including without limitation attorneys fees and litigation costs) that may be incurred or suffered by the other because of any claim for any fee, commission or similar compensation with respect to this Lease, made by any broker, agent or finder claiming by, through or under the indemnifying party, whether or not such claim is valid.
21. Tenants Insurance. Tenant shall procure and maintain, at all times and at its expense, in a form and with an insurance company acceptable to Landlord, the following types of insurance:
(a) Workers Compensation Insurance to meet fully the requirement of any compensation act, plan or legislative enactment applicable in connection with the death, disability or injury of Licensees officers, agents, servants or employees arising directly or indirectly out of the performance of this Lease;
(b) Employers Liability Insurance with limits of not less than $500,000 each accident, $500,000 policy limit for disease, and $500,000 each employee for disease;
(c) Automobile Liability Insurance with a combined single limit of not less than $500,000 each occurrence for injury to or death of persons and damage to or loss or destruction of property arising out of the use of owned or non-owned vehicles;
10
(d) Commercial General Liability Insurance for the Premises having a single limit of not less than $5,000,000.00 for each occurrence, covering Tenants contractual liability hereunder, and covering Tenant and Landlord for liability arising out of work performed by any third parties for Tenant in or about the Premises; and
(e) property insurance at replacement cost value to cover the Improvements upon the Premises.
Each of the foregoing types of coverage shall name the Landlord Entities as additional insureds and be considered primary and noncontributory, regardless of any insurance carried by Landlord; provided, however, Landlord shall be the loss payee under the property insurance policy. Tenant shall deliver certificates of insurance evidencing the insurance required hereinabove to Landlord simultaneously with the execution of this Lease by Tenant, which certificates shall reflect that the policies shall not be canceled without at least thirty (30) days prior notice to Landlord. If Tenant fails to obtain the necessary coverages, Landlord may do so at Tenants expense and the same shall constitute additional rental. All insurance certificates should be delivered to Landlords Risk Management Department, Three Commercial Place, Norfolk, Virginia 23510, simultaneously with the execution of this Lease by Tenant. The minimum limits of insurance provided for hereunder are not intended to be a limitation on the liability of Tenant hereunder and shall not waive Landlords right to seek a full recovery from Tenant.
Landlord and Tenant hereby waive and shall cause their respective insurance carriers to waive any and all rights of recovery, claims, actions or causes of action against the other for any loss or damage with respect to Tenants property, leasehold improvements, the buildings, the Premises, or any contents thereof, including rights, claims, actions and causes of action based on negligence, which loss or damage is (or would have been, had the insurance required by this Lease been carried) covered by insurance.
22. Taxes. Each year during the term of this Lease, Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord, as additional rental, for all real estate taxes and assessments (regular or special) pertaining to the Premises, paid by Landlord with respect to the Premises over and above the annual sum of $75,000 (Taxes) which sum has been included in the base rental described in Paragraph 3 of this Lease. Landlord has been advised by representatives of the City of Roanoke that the Premises shall be separately assessed as of January 1, 2005. Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, invoice Tenant for the estimated Taxes for each calendar year (but no more frequently than monthly), which amount shall be adjusted each year based upon anticipated Taxes. If the Premises are part of a larger tract, the Taxes for which Tenant is responsible for reimbursing Landlord pursuant to the terms hereof shall be the share of such total Taxes that Landlord reasonably determines are applicable to the Premises, giving due consideration to the relative value of the Premises and the value of the land and improvements reflected in the applicable tax valuation. Upon request from Tenant, Landlord shall provide Tenant with copies of tax bills for the Taxes. If Landlord has been invoicing Tenant for Taxes and the tax bills indicate that the total of the payments made by Tenant exceeds the amount of Taxes applicable to the Premises, Landlord shall credit any such amount against the Tax reimbursement payment next coming due. In the event the accounting shows that the total of the Tax payments made by Tenant is less than the amount of Tax payment due from Tenant under this Paragraph, the accounting shall be accompanied by an invoice for the additional payment. During the year in which this Lease terminates, Landlord shall have the option to invoice Tenant for Taxes based upon the previous years Taxes. If this Lease commences on a day other than the first day of a tax year or ends on a day other than the last day of a tax year, the amount of any Taxes payable by Tenant applicable to the year in which the term commences or ends shall be prorated. Tenant
11
agrees to pay any sum due under this Paragraph within ten (10) days following receipt of the invoice showing the amount due.
23. Joint and Several. If Tenant comprises more than one person, corporation, partnership or other entity, the liability hereunder of all such persons, corporations, partnerships or other entities shall be joint and several.
24. No Warranties; Entire Agreement. TENANT ACCEPTS THE PREMISES AS IS WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, HABITABILITY, OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR ANY OTHER IMPLIED WARRANTIES. TENANT ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE PREMISES MAY CONTAIN ASBESTOS OR LEAD-BASED PAINT AND SHOULD CONDUCT ANY RENOVATION OR CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES OF THE IMPROVEMENTS IN ACCORDANCE WITH ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, APPLICABLE FEDERAL OR STATE EPA OR OSHA REGULATIONS. LANDLORD SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR, AND TENANT HEREBY RELEASES LANDLORD FROM ALL CLAIMS FOR ECONOMIC LOSSES AND ALL OTHER DAMAGE OF ANY NATURE WHATSOEVER ACCRUING TO TENANT, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE VALUE OF ANY BUILDINGS, STRUCTURES OR IMPROVEMENTS OF TENANT UPON THE PREMISES, RESULTING FROM OR ARISING BY REASON OF ANY DEFICIENCY, INSUFFICIENCY OR FAILURE OF TITLE OF LANDLORD. IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER LANDLORD OR TENANT BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY HERETO FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOST PROFITS, COST OF CAPITAL OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION EXPENSES) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS LEASE, EVEN IF LANDLORD OR TENANT, AS THE CASE MAY BE, HAS BEEN ADVISED OR SHOULD HAVE BEEN AWARE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THIS LEASE CONTAINS THE ENTIRE AGREEMENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO AS TO THE PREMISES, AND NO REPRESENTATIONS, INDUCEMENTS, PROMISES OR AGREEMENTS, ORAL OR OTHERWISE, BETWEEN THE PARTIES, NOT EMBODIED HEREIN, SHALL BE OF ANY FORCE OR EFFECT.
25. Survival. The provisions of Paragraphs 6, 7, 9, 13, 17, 20 and 22 of this Lease, Paragraphs 5, 10, 12 and 13 of Exhibit B attached hereto, Appendix 1 of Exhibit B attached hereto, and Paragraphs 5, 6 and 11 of Exhibit D attached hereto shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.
26. Miscellaneous. Knowledge on the part of Landlord or any employee, agent or representative of Landlord of any violation of any of the terms of this Lease by Tenant shall constitute neither negligence nor consent on the part of Landlord, and shall in no event relieve Tenant of any of the responsibilities and obligations assumed by Tenant in this Lease. All rights, powers and privileges conferred hereunder upon the parties hereto shall be cumulative but not restrictive to those given by law. No failure of one party to exercise any power hereunder, or to insist upon strict compliance by the other party with its obligations hereunder, and no custom or practice of the parties at variance with the terms hereof shall constitute a waiver of such partys right to demand exact compliance with the terms hereof. Subject to the terms of Paragraph 12 above, this Lease shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the respective successors and permitted assigns of Landlord and Tenant. If any term, covenant or condition of this Lease or the application thereof to any person, entity or circumstance shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease, or the application of such term, covenant or
12
condition to persons, entities or circumstances other than those which or to which used may be held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term, covenant or condition of this Lease shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. Time is of the essence in this Lease. Neither party shall be bound hereunder until such time as both parties have signed this Lease. This Lease shall be governed by the laws of the State or Commonwealth in which the Premises are located.

Exhibit A
EXHIBIT B
RIDER TO LEASE AGREEMENT DATED DECEMBER 20, 2004 BY AND BETWEEN NORFOLK SOUTHERN RAILWAY COMPANY, AS LANDLORD, AND JOHNSTOWN AMERICA CORPORATION, AS TENANT
This Rider is attached to and made a part of the referenced Lease Agreement. In the event of an inconsistency between the terms of this Rider and the terms of the Lease Agreement, the terms of this Rider shall control.
1. Renewal of Term. Subject to the termination rights of Landlord set out in either this Exhibit B or in the Lease Agreement and provided that Tenant is not in default at the time Tenant gives the applicable Renewal Notice (as hereinafter defined) to Landlord or at the time the then applicable term of this Lease would otherwise expire, Tenant shall have the right to renew the term of this Lease for one (1) period of ten (10) years (the Renewal Term) by giving written notice (the Renewal Notice) to Landlord no later than twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the Initial Term. The renewal shall be on the same terms and conditions as are applicable during the Initial Term except that the amount of the initial monthly base rental for the Renewal Term (the Initial Renewal Rental) shall be based on the fair market rental for the Premises, as determined by Landlord in good faith (but the monthly base rental shall not decrease). Commencing on the first anniversary of the first day of the Renewal Term (the Renewal Commencement Date), the monthly base rental thereafter shall be subject to an annual adjustment based on the percentage increase of the Producer Price Index, as hereinafter described. Landlord and Tenant shall have forty-five (45) days from the receipt of Tenants notice of renewal to come to an agreement as to the amount of Initial Renewal Rental to be paid by Tenant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, in no event shall the Initial Renewal Rental, whether determined by the parties hereto or through the arbitration process described below, be less than the monthly base rental in effect at the expiration of the Initial Term.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord and Tenant fail to agree upon the Renewal Rental within such forty-five (45) day period (the Negotiation Period), Tenant, by written notice delivered to Landlord (the Arbitration Notice) within five (5) days after the expiration of the Negotiation Period, shall have the right to elect to renew the term of this Lease for the Renewal Term (which shall establish a binding obligation for Tenants lease of the Premises for the Renewal Term) and have the Initial Renewal Rental determined in accordance with the arbitration procedures described below. If Landlord and Tenant fail to agree upon the Initial Renewal Rental within the Negotiation Period and Tenant fails to send the Arbitration Notice as provided above, Tenants renewal right shall be deemed to be null and void and of no further force and effect, and the term of this Lease shall expire as provided in Paragraph 2 of this Lease.
If Tenant provides Landlord with an Arbitration Notice, Landlord and Tenant, within thirty (30) days after the date of the Arbitration Notice, shall each simultaneously submit to the other, in a sealed envelope, its proposed Initial Renewal Rental (collectively referred to as the Estimates). If the higher of such Estimates is not more than 105% of the lower of such Estimates, then the Initial Renewal Rental shall be the average of the two Estimates. If the Initial Renewal Rental is not resolved by the exchange of Estimates, then, within ten (10) days after the exchange of Estimates, Landlord and Tenant shall each select an appraiser to determine which of the two Estimates most closely reflects the fair market rental for the Premises at the commencement of the Renewal Term. Each appraiser so selected shall be certified as an MAI appraiser or as an ASA appraiser and shall have working knowledge of current rental rates and
Page 1 of 13
practices for appropriately relevant properties. For purposes hereof, an MAI appraiser means an individual who holds an MAI designation conferred by, and is an independent member of, the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers (or its successor organization, or in the event there is no successor organization, the organization and designation most similar), and an ASA appraiser means an individual who holds the Senior Member designation conferred by, and is an independent member of, the American Society of Appraisers (or its successor organization, or, in the event there is no successor organization, the organization and designation most similar).
Upon selection, Landlords and Tenants appraisers shall work together in good faith to determine which of the two Estimates most closely reflects the fair market rental for the Premises at the commencement of the Renewal Term. The Estimate chosen by such appraisers shall be binding on both Landlord and Tenant as the Initial Renewal Rental. If either Landlord or Tenant fails to appoint an appraiser within the ten (10) day period referred to above, the appraiser appointed by the other party shall be the sole appraiser for the purposes hereof. If the two appraisers cannot agree upon which of the two Estimates most closely reflects the monthly base rental within thirty (30) days after their appointment, then, within ten (10) days after the expiration of such thirty (30) day period, the two appraisers shall select a third appraiser meeting the aforementioned criteria. Once the third appraiser (i.e. arbitrator) has been selected as provided for above, then, as soon thereafter as practicable but in any case within fourteen (14) days, the arbitrator shall make his determination of which of the two Estimates most closely reflects the fair market rental for the Premises at the commencement of the Renewal Term, and such Estimate shall be binding on both Landlord and Tenant as the Initial Renewal Rental. The parties shall share equally in the costs of the arbitrator. Any fees of any appraiser, counsel or experts engaged directly by Landlord or Tenant, however, shall be borne by the party retaining such appraiser, counsel or expert.
If the Initial Renewal Rental has not been determined by the commencement date of the Renewal Term, Tenant shall pay monthly base rental upon the terms and conditions in effect during the last month of the Initial Term until such time as the Initial Renewal Rental has been determined. Upon such determination, the monthly base rental for the Premises shall be retroactively adjusted to the commencement of the Renewal Term for the Premises. If such adjustment results in an underpayment of monthly base rental by Tenant, Tenant shall pay Landlord the amount of such underpayment within thirty (30) days after the determination thereof.
The monthly base rental shall be increased (and not decreased) during each year of the Renewal Term by the percentage of increase, if any, in the United States, Bureau of Labor Statistics Producer Price Index Finished Goods (final and not seasonally adjusted) (Index) as set forth below. If the Index is discontinued or revised during the term, such other government index or computation with which it is replaced shall be used in order to obtain substantially the same result as would be obtained if the Index had not been discontinued or revised. The Adjustment Date shall mean the first anniversary of the Renewal Commencement Date and each anniversary thereof during the Renewal Term. The non-preliminary Index published nearest to the Renewal Commencement Date shall be the Base Index. The non-preliminary Index published nearest to the Adjustment Date shall be the Adjustment Index. On each Adjustment Date, the monthly base rental shall be adjusted by multiplying the Initial Renewal Rental by a fraction, the numerator of which fraction is the applicable Adjustment Index and the denominator of which fraction is the Base Index. The amount so determined shall be the monthly base rental payable under the Lease beginning on the applicable Adjustment Date and until the next Adjustment Date (if any).

2. Use of the Tracks; Governmental Grants. Without in any way affecting Tenants insurance or indemnity obligations set forth in the Lease, the provisions set forth in Exhibit D attached hereto shall govern Tenants operation of rail cars on the Tracks. In the event of an inconsistency between the terms of Exhibit D and the terms of the Lease Agreement, the terms of Exhibit D shall control. Paragraph 19 of the Lease shall not apply to the Tracks. Landlord and Tenant shall use diligent efforts so as to obtain for the benefit of Tenant any federal, state or other governmental grants (collectively, the Governmental Grants) that may be available in connection with Tenants intended rehabilitation and expansion of the Tracks (collectively, the Track Improvements); provided, however, if the Certified Track Costs (as hereinafter defined) exceed the Governmental Grants, Landlord shall grant Tenant a credit against the monthly base rental due in November, 2005 for the lesser of (a) the amount of such excess (the Excess Track Costs), or (b) ***. Tenant shall be obligated to pay for all Excess Track Costs initially, and any Excess Track Costs beyond *** shall be the sole responsibility of Tenant, except that Tenant may elect, at its option, for such Excess Track Costs beyond *** to constitute Additional Capital Improvements (as hereinafter defined). Certified Track Costs shall mean those Track Costs certified by Landlord in accordance with this Section. Track Costs shall be Tenants actual and reasonable costs to design, construct and install the Track Improvements. In order for the Construction Costs to be certified by Landlord: (i) Tenant must first obtain, prior to commencing the Track Improvements, written approval from the Landlord that the proposed Track Improvements would, in Landlords reasonable discretion, permanently enhance the use of the Premises for the manufacture of rail cars, (ii) Tenant must obtain, prior to commencing the construction or repair project, written approval from the Landlord that the proposed work and the anticipated budget categories and amounts for the Track Costs of the proposed construction and/or repair project are reasonable, and (iii) Tenant must obtain all required governmental approvals, including, but not limited to environmental clearances. After the completion of the approved Track Improvements, which must be completed no later than October 15, 2005 for Tenant to qualify for the rental credit described herein, Tenant must deliver to Landlord an itemized statement that describes, in reasonable detail, the Governmental Grants and the actual Track Costs expended by Tenant on the approved Track Improvements, accompanied by documentation evidencing to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord, all said Governmental Grants and expenditures. Such documentation may include: (A) copies of executed contracts; (B) copies of invoices for labor, services and/or materials marked Paid, copies of bills of lading, and/or copies of other bills or receipts for goods, materials and/or services marked Paid; (C) copies of canceled checks; and (D) such other proofs of expenditures as may be reasonably requested by Landlord. All such proofs of expenditure must be attributable directly to the Track Improvements. Upon receipt of and based upon said statement and accompanying documentation which substantiate the actual Track Costs expended by Tenant, Landlord in its reasonable discretion shall determine the Certified Construction Costs, and Tenant shall be granted a credit against the monthly base rental due in November, 2005 as described above. All Track Improvements shall, upon completion, become the property of Landlord and remain with the Premises following the expiration or earlier termination of the term of this Lease.
3. Tenant Right to Suspend Operations. At any time following the fifth (5th) Lease Year (as hereinafter defined) during the Initial Term, Tenant shall be permitted in its sole and absolute discretion, on a one-time basis upon at least sixty (60) days prior written notice thereof to Landlord ***; provided, however, that Tenant shall not have such right at any time that a default or event of default has occurred and is continuing under this Lease. Tenants right to cease operations during the *** shall not release or excuse the Tenant from any obligations or liabilities, including the payment of base rental and any other charges payable under this Lease, without the express written consent of Landlord; provided, however, the
Page 3 of 13
monthly base rental to be paid by Tenant during the ***, but only for so long as no manufacturing operations whatsoever are being conducted at the Premises, shall be *** of the average base monthly rental charged to Tenant over the preceding three (3) years ***. Tenant shall not have the right to exercise the *** if doing so affects or delays the timely and complete performance of any pending orders for rail cars by Landlord in accord with the terms of the governing separate purchase agreement or agreements with Tenant. In the event Tenant exercises the ***, Landlord shall have the right to recapture the Premises and terminate this Lease pursuant to Section 10 of this Exhibit B. In the event that neither Landlord nor Tenant has elected to terminate this Lease pursuant to Section 10 of this Exhibit B, the *** shall no longer apply following the expiration of the ***, and the monthly base rental thereafter shall be payable by Tenant in accordance with Section 3 of the Lease. The provisions of this Section shall not apply during the Renewal Term and shall not be applicable to any assignee or subtenant of Tenant. For purposes of this Lease, the term Lease Year shall mean any consecutive twelve (12) month period commencing on the Rental Commencement Date or any anniversary thereof.
4. Provision of Certain Utilities by Landlord; Estimated Utility Expenses. Except as set forth below in this Section, Landlord will use its reasonable efforts to provide or cause to be provided electricity, steam, potable water and compressed air services to the Premises (collectively, the Landlord-Provided Utilities) during the term of this Lease. However, Landlord reserves the right, without any liability to Tenant and without affecting Tenants covenants and obligations under this Lease, to stop or interrupt or reduce any of the Landlord-Provided Utilities, or to stop, interrupt or reduce any other utility services provided to the Premises, whenever and for so long as may be necessary, in Landlords reasonable judgment, by reason of (i) accidents or emergencies, (ii) the making of repairs or changes that Landlord in good faith considers necessary or which it is required or permitted by this Lease or by law to make, (iii) the selection, by written notice delivered to Tenant at least ninety (90) days prior to the effective date thereof, of a third party company to provide some or all of the Landlord-Provided Utilities, (iv) difficulty in securing proper supplies of electricity, steam, compressed air or supplies related thereto, or (v) the compliance by Landlord with governmental, quasi-governmental or utility company energy conservation measures. In addition to the foregoing, Landlord shall have the right, without any liability to Tenant and without affecting Tenants covenants and obligations under this Lease, to stop any of the Landlord-Provided Utilities by written notice delivered to Tenant at least six (6) months prior to the effective date thereof; provided, however, in the event that steam utility service is stopped by Landlord, Landlord shall, at its expense, cause an air compressor to be installed at the Premises that has a size and capacity adequate to support all rail car manufacturing processes then being performed at the Premises.
Landlord shall, on an interruption of the Landlord-Provided Utilities or any other utility service provided to the Premises, use its reasonable efforts to cause the service to be resumed as soon as practicable. However, no interruption or stoppage of any services shall ever be construed as an eviction of Tenant nor will interruption or stoppage cause an abatement of the base rental payable under this Lease or in any manner relieve Tenant from any of Tenants obligations under this Lease.
5. Payment of Utility Expenses. Landlord estimates that the initial monthly expenses for the utilities currently provided to the Premises shall be as follows as of the Rental Commencement Date:
Electricity: | $ | *** | |
Steam (including compressed air) | $ | *** | |
Potable Water | $ | *** | |
Total | $ | *** |
Page 4 of 13
Tenant shall, from time to time during the term of this Lease pay to Landlord as additional rental hereunder, along with Tenants monthly installments of base rental, all expenses for utility services provided to the Premises that are not directly paid by Tenant to the provider of such utility services (collectively, the Utility Expenses), which shall initially be established at $*** for the first Lease Year, or $*** per month. As soon as practicable, Landlord shall, following the Contingency Deadline (as hereinafter defined), install meters so as to isolate Tenants consumption of all utility services (other than steam) at the Premises. During the term of this Lease, Landlord shall have the right to make a good faith estimate of the Utility Expenses for each upcoming Lease Year and, upon thirty (30) days notice to Tenant, to require the monthly payment by Tenant of one-twelfth (1/12th) of such estimated Utility Expenses. Within sixty (60) days after the expiration of each Lease Year, or as soon thereafter as practical, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a statement of Landlords actual Utility Expenses for the previous Lease Year, and Landlord shall notify Tenant of the amount of the Utility Expenses owing by Tenant to Landlord, showing the calculations thereof which result from such statement. Tenant agrees to promptly pay Landlord, as additional rental, all Utility Expenses which have not been previously paid as estimated Utility Expenses. If for any calendar year additional rental collected for the prior Lease Year, as a result of Landlords estimate of Utility Expenses, is greater than the additional rental actually due during such prior Lease Year, then Landlord shall refund to Tenant any such overpayment or, at Landlords option, apply such amount against subsequent Utility Expenses due under the Lease.
6. Capital Improvements; Credit Against Base Rental. During the first Lease Year, Tenant shall have the right to undertake certain capital repairs and to design and construct certain alterations and improvements to the Premises, some of which capital repairs, alterations and improvements are listed on Exhibit F attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference (collectively, the Planned Capital Improvements). Subject to the further provisions of this Section, Landlord shall grant Tenant a credit against the base rental due under this Lease in an amount not to exceed $*** in the aggregate for Tenants Certified Construction Costs (as hereinafter defined) directly related to (a) any Planned Capital Improvements undertaken during the first Lease Year, and (b) such other capital repairs, alterations and improvements undertaken during the first Lease Year as may be approved by Landlord as further provided in this Section (collectively, the Additional Capital Improvements). For purposes of this Section, Certified Construction Costs shall mean those Construction Costs certified by Landlord in accordance with this Section. Construction Costs shall be Tenants actual and reasonable costs to design, construct and install the Planned Capital Improvements and the Additional Capital Improvements. In order for the Construction Costs to be certified by Landlord: (i) Tenant must first obtain, prior to commencing the construction and/or repair project, written approval from the Landlord that the proposed construction and/or repair project would either qualify as a Planned Capital Improvement or an Additional Capital Improvement that would, in Landlords reasonable discretion, permanently enhance the use of the Premises for the manufacture of rail cars, (ii) Tenant must obtain, prior to commencing the construction or repair project, written approval from the Landlord that the proposed work and the anticipated budget categories and amounts for the Construction Costs of the proposed construction and/or repair project are reasonable, and (iii) Tenant must obtain all required governmental approvals, including, but not limited to building permits and environmental clearances. After the completion of the approved construction and/or repair project, Tenant must deliver to Landlord an itemized statement of the actual Construction Costs expended by Tenant on the approved construction and/or repair project, accompanied by documentation evidencing to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord, all said expenditures. Such documentation of expenditures may include: (A) copies of executed contracts; (B) copies of invoices for labor, services and/or materials marked Paid, copies of bills of
Page 5 of 13
lading, and/or copies of other bills or receipts for goods, materials and/or services marked Paid; (C) copies of canceled checks; and (D) such other proofs of expenditures as may be reasonably requested by Landlord. All such proofs of expenditure must be attributable directly to the Planned Capital Improvements or such other Additional Capital Improvements as are approved in advance by Landlord, in Landlords reasonable discretion. Upon receipt of and based upon said statement and accompanying documentation which substantiate the actual Construction Costs expended during the first Lease Year, Landlord in its reasonable discretion shall determine the Certified Construction Costs. Tenant shall be granted a monthly rental credit for the Certified Construction Costs, which shall be amortized over *** of the Initial Term of this Lease utilizing straight-line amortization commencing upon the thirteenth (13th) month of the Initial Term. All Planned Capital Improvements and Additional Capital Improvements shall, upon completion, become the property of Landlord and remain with the Premises following the expiration or earlier termination of the term of this Lease.
7. Use and Replacement of Equipment. (a) Tenant shall be responsible for replacement of the short-life machining tools and fixtures owned by Landlord and located upon or about the Premises (which may or may not be included within the description of the Equipment set forth in Exhibit C attached hereto) such as welding machines, huck guns, jigs and other equipment (collectively, the Short-Life Equipment), the useful lives for which shall expire during the term of this Lease. Once one or more items of Short-Life Equipment are no longer useful to Tenant, Tenant shall deliver the same to Landlord for Landlords disposition. No adjustment in the base rental or any other amount due to Landlord under the Lease shall be made for Tenants loss of use of any Short-Life Equipment, and Tenant shall be responsible for any required replacement of Short-Life Equipment. (b) Upon the expiration or earlier termination of the term of this Lease, Tenant may remove any machining tools and fixtures purchased by Tenant, but shall not remove any remaining Short-Life Equipment. If the cranes and blast units described in Exhibit C attached hereto, the turntable or any air compressor installed by Landlord (collectively, the Replacement Equipment) become inoperable and are incapable of repair, as reasonably determined by Landlord, Landlord shall be responsible for the replacement (but not repair) of such Replacement Equipment unless such replacement is necessitated due to the fault or negligence of Tenant or any of Tenants agents, employees, or invitees. Tooling and all other equipment owned by Tenant in the Premises and that has not been classified as a Planned Capital Improvements, Additional Capital Improvements or Replacement Equipment will remain property of Tenant, and Tenant will have the right to remove these items from the property after termination.
8. Phase I Investigation. Within sixty (60) days after the date of this Lease, Landlord shall, it its expense, cause a Phase I environmental investigation (the Phase I Investigation) to be performed for the Premises and shall promptly send to Tenant copies of all reports made in connection with the Phase I Investigation (collectively, the Phase I Reports). The Phase I Reports shall be deemed Confidential Information (as hereinafter defined). Without in any way affecting the obligations of the parties hereto under Paragraph 13 of this Lease, neither Landlord nor Tenant shall be obligated to perform any additional testing, or take any remedial or other measures, that may be recommended in connection with the Phase I Investigation, except to the extent otherwise required by the terms of this Lease or by applicable law.
9. Landlords Repair Obligations. Except for damage caused by Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors and invitees, Landlord shall keep in good repair the structural components of the roof, foundation and exterior walls of the Improvements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall have no obligation to make any repair or maintenance pursuant to this Section unless and until it shall have received written notice from Tenant specifying the need for such maintenance or repairs.

For purposes of illustration only, if the Lease is terminated by Landlord effective as of the 84th month, then Tenant would receive liquidated damages from Landlord in the amount of $***, as determined by the chart above.
The liquidated damages payment required on lease termination by NSR is comprised of two componentsthe Roanoke Fixed Plant portion and the Other Start-Up Costs portion. The schedule of liquidated damages set out in this Appendix 1 is established in accordance with the following:
1. For purposes of establishing the Roanoke Fixed Plant portion of the liquidated damages payment, the total fixed (immovable) investment is considered to be $*** except as provided for in Item 4 below. The $*** is a maximum amount and no higher amount will be considered for a recalculation of liquidated damages as described below.
2. For purposes of establishing the Other Start-Up Costs portion of the liquidated damages payment, Other Start-Up Costs shall be considered to be $*** except as provided for in Item 4 below. The $*** is a maximum amount and no higher amount will be considered for a recalculation of liquidated damages as described below. For the purposes of calculating the Other Start-Up Costs portion, the Other Start-Up Costs shall be considered to include the following:
Expenses required for the commencement (but not the actual production) of production of rail cars, including recruiting expenses, moving expenses, training expenses, equipment rent, utilities, taxes, insurance, equipment rental, equipment installation, salaries, benefits, outside contractor costs, and maintenance expenses on equipment that has not been operated for some time but not including tools and shop supplies.
3. The financial assistance received by Tenant from the Commonwealth of Virginia or other governmental entities shall be considered to be $*** for the purposes of the Schedule above. In the event that the actual financial assistance to Tenant (in any form) is less than $*** or greater than $***, then the Schedule of Liquidated Damages above shall be recalculated using the actual amount of financial assistance received by Tenant.
4. Landlord reserves the right to recalculate the schedule of Liquidated Damages based upon actual investment or expenditure in the event that Landlord believes that the actual investment or expenditure is less than the respective maximum amount specified in Items 1 and 2 above.
(a) The formula for recalculation of the Roanoke Fixed Plant portion of the Liquidated Damages payment under the Schedule above in the event a recalculation is made shall be as follows:
(the actual Roanoke Fixed Plant approved investment) times [(120 minus Last Lease Month) divided by 108] where Last Lease Month is defined as the sequential month of the Lease (60th to 120th month) at the end of which the Lease terminates.
Page 12 of 13
(b) The formula for recalculation of the Other Start-Up Costs portion of the Liquidated Damages payment under the Schedule above in the event such recalculation is required shall be as follows:
[(Actual Other Start-Up Costs minus Government Funds Received exclusive of track grants) divided by 2] times [(120 minus Last Lease Month) divided by 108] where Last Lease Month is defined as the sequential month of the Lease (60th to 120th month) at the end of which the Lease terminates.
