Issuer, Trinity Industries Leasing Company, a Delaware corporation (“TILC”) on behalf of itself and
as manager of Trinity Rail Leasing Warehouse Trust (“TRLWT”) and Trinity Industries, Inc., a

delivery by the Purchasers to offerees or investors of, any such amendment or supplement shall
constitute a waiver of any of the conditions set forth in Section 7. The first sentence of this
subsection does
-10-
not apply to statements in or omissions from any document in the General Disclosure
Package or any Limited Use Issuer Free Writing Communication in reliance upon and in conformity
with
written information furnished to the Issuer, TILC, TRLWT or Trinity by any Purchaser through
the Initial Purchaser specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only
such information is that described as such in Sections 8(a) and 8(b) hereof.
(b) The Issuer will furnish to the Initial Purchaser copies of each document comprising a
part of the Offering Document and each Limited Use Issuer Free Writing Communication, in each case
as soon as available and in such quantities as the Initial Purchaser requests, and the Issuer will
furnish to the Initial Purchaser on the date hereof three (3) copies of each document comprising a
part of the Offering Document and each Limited Use Issuer Free Writing Communication signed by a
duly authorized officer of the Issuer, one of which will include the independent accountants’
reports in the Offering Document manually signed by such independent accountants. At any time when
the Issuer is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Issuer will promptly
furnish or cause to be furnished to the Initial Purchaser (and, upon request, to each other
Purchaser) and, upon request of holders and prospective purchasers of the Offered Notes, to such
holders and purchasers, copies of the information (the “Additional Issuer Information”) required to
be delivered to holders and prospective purchasers of the Offered Notes in accordance with Rule
144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act (or any successor provision thereto) in order to permit
compliance with Rule 144A in connection with resales by such holders of the Offered Notes. TILC or
Trinity will pay the expenses of printing and distributing to the Purchasers all such documents.
Any Additional Issuer Information delivered to any holders and prospective purchasers of the
Offered Notes will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any
material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading.
(c) The Issuer or TILC, on its behalf, will arrange for the qualification of the Offered
Notes for sale and the determination of their eligibility for investment under the laws of such
jurisdictions in the United States as the Initial Purchaser designates and will continue such
qualifications in effect so long as required for the resale of the Offered Notes by the Purchasers,
provided that the Issuer will not be required to qualify as a foreign corporation or to file a
general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction.
(d) So long as the Offered Notes are outstanding, if not filed electronically with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) or posted on the website of Trinity, the
Issuer or Trinity will furnish to the Initial Purchaser, as soon as practicable after the end of
each fiscal year, a copy of Trinity’s annual report to shareholders, and the Issuer or Trinity will
furnish to the Initial Purchaser (and, upon request, to each other Purchaser) (i) as soon as
available, a copy of each description of reports, notices or communications sent to securityholders
of Trinity or, if applicable, filed with foreign regulators or securities exchanges by Trinity,
(ii) as soon as available, copies of each report furnished to TILC or any of its affiliates, in the
case of the Issuer, and to its shareholders, in the case of Trinity, in either case pursuant to any
Operative Agreement (collectively, the “Transaction Documents”), by first class mail as soon as
practicable after such reports are furnished to TILC or any of its affiliates or the shareholders,
as the case may be, (iii) copies of each amendment to any of the Transaction Documents, (iv) copies
of all reports and other communications (financial or other) furnished to
-11-
the Trustee under the
Indenture or to holders of the Offered Notes, and copies of any reports and financial statements,
if any, furnished to or filed with the Commission, any governmental or
regulatory authority or any national securities exchange, and (v) from time to time such other
information as any Purchasers may reasonably request relating to the Issuer, TILC, TRLWT, Trinity
or any of their respective affiliates, the Offered Notes and the Transaction Documents. Each of
TILC, the Issuer and Xxxxxxx shall make their officers, employees, independent accountants and
legal counsel reasonably available upon request by any Purchaser.

request, furnish to the Initial Purchaser, each of the other Purchasers and any holder of Offered
Notes a copy of the restrictions on transfer applicable to the Offered Notes.
(f) During the period of two (2) years after the Closing Date none of the Issuer, TILC, nor
Trinity will, or will permit any of its affiliates (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities
Act) to, resell any of the Offered Notes that have been reacquired by any of them.
(g) During the period of two (2) years after the Closing Date, the Issuer will not be or
become an open-end investment company, unit investment trust or face-amount certificate company
that is or is required to be registered under Section 8 of the Investment Company Act.
(h) The Issuer, TILC or Trinity will pay all expenses incidental to the performance of their
respective obligations under this Agreement, including but not limited to: (i) all expenses in
connection with the execution, issue, authentication, packaging and initial delivery of the Offered
Notes, the preparation and printing of this Agreement, the Offered Notes, the documents comprising
any part of the Offering Document, each Limited Use Issuer Free Writing Communication and any other
document relating to the issuance, offer, sale and delivery of the Offered Notes; (ii) the cost of
any advertising approved by the Issuer, TILC or Trinity in connection with the issue of the Offered
Notes; (iii) any expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred in connection with
qualification of the Offered Notes for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions in the United
States as the Initial Purchaser designates and the printing of memoranda relating thereto; (iv) any
fees charged by the Hired NRSRO for the rating of the Offered Notes; and (v) expenses incurred in
distributing the documents comprising any part of the Offering Document (including any amendments
and supplements thereto) and any Limited Use Issuer Free Writing Communications to the Purchasers
or to prospective purchasers of the Offered Notes. The Issuer, TILC and Trinity jointly and
severally will also pay or reimburse the Purchasers (to the extent incurred by them) for all travel
expenses of the Purchasers’, the Issuer’s, TILC’s, TRLWT’s and Trinity’s officers and employees and
any other expenses of the Purchasers, the Issuer, TILC, TRLWT or Trinity in connection with
attending or hosting meetings with prospective purchasers of the Offered Notes from the Purchasers.
In addition to the foregoing, but without duplication, the Issuer, TILC or Trinity will pay to the
Initial Purchaser on the Closing Date the amounts in respect of its costs and expenses as set forth
in Section 3 of the Engagement Letter as reimbursement of the Initial Purchaser’s other expenses.
(i) In connection with the offering and the sale of the Offered Notes, until the Initial
Purchaser shall have notified the Issuer, TILC, Trinity and the other Purchasers of the completion
of the resale of the Offered Notes, none of the Issuer, TILC, TRLWT or Trinity or any of their
respective affiliates has or will, either alone or with one or more other persons,
-12-
bid for or
purchase for any account in which it or any of its affiliates has a beneficial interest any Offered
Notes or attempt to induce any person to purchase any Offered Notes; and none of the
Issuer, TILC, TRLWT or Trinity or any of their respective affiliates will make bids or
purchases for the purpose of creating actual, or apparent, active trading in, or of raising the
price of, the Offered Notes.
(j) For a period of 180 days after the date of the initial offering of the Offered Notes by
the Purchasers, none of the Issuer, TILC, TRLWT or Trinity will offer, sell, contract to sell,
pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, or file with the Commission a registration
statement under the Securities Act relating to, any United States dollar-denominated asset-backed
securities issued, sponsored or guaranteed by the Issuer, TILC, TRLWT, Trinity or any of their
respective affiliates and having a maturity of more than one year from the date of issue, or
publicly disclose the intention to make any such offer, sale, pledge, disposition or filing,
without the prior written consent of the Initial Purchaser. None of the Issuer, TILC, TRLWT or
Trinity will at any time offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or
indirectly, any securities under circumstances where such offer, sale, pledge, contract or
disposition would cause the exemption afforded by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act or the safe
harbor of Regulation S thereunder to cease to be applicable to the offer and sale of the Offered
Notes.
(k) The Issuer, TILC and Trinity (the “Indemnitors”) jointly and severally will indemnify and
hold harmless the Purchasers against any documentary, stamp or similar issuance tax, including any
interest and penalties, on the creation, issuance and sale of the Offered Notes and on the
execution and delivery of this Agreement. All payments to be made by TILC, Trinity or the Issuer
hereunder shall be made without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future
taxes, duties or governmental charges whatsoever unless Trinity, TILC or the Issuer is compelled by
law to deduct or withhold such taxes, duties or charges. In that event, Trinity, TILC or the
Issuer, as applicable, shall pay such additional amounts as may be necessary in order that the net
amounts received after such withholding or deduction shall equal the amounts that would have been
received if no withholding or deduction had been made; provided that the Indemnitors will not be
required to indemnify or gross-up for such taxes and withholdings to the extent imposed as a result
of a failure of such Purchaser to provide any duly executed and completed form or document
described in the last sentence of this paragraph upon the execution of this Agreement or to be
delivered thereafter upon the reasonable request of its Indemnitors which evidences such
Purchaser’s entitlement to an exemption for such taxes and withholdings. Furthermore, the
Indemnitors hereby request that the each Purchaser hereby provide to them IRS Form W-9 or IRS Form
W-8BEN, W-8IMY or W-8ECI, whichever is applicable.
(l) To the extent, if any, that the rating provided with respect to the Offered Notes by the
Hired NRSRO is conditional upon the furnishing of documents or the taking of any other action on or
prior to the Closing Date by the Issuer, TILC, TRLWT or Trinity, Trinity, TILC, TRLWT or the
Issuer, as the case may be, shall use its reasonable best efforts to furnish such documents and
take any other such action on or prior to the Closing Date.
6. Free Writing Communications. (a) Each of the Issuer, TILC, TRLWT and Trinity,
jointly and severally, represents and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior consent of the
Initial
-13-
Purchaser, and each Purchaser represents and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior
consent of TILC and the Initial Purchaser, it has not made and will not make any offer relating to
the Offered
Notes that would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Communication. Any such Issuer Free
Writing Communication consented to by TILC and the Initial Purchaser is hereinafter referred to as
a “Permitted Free Writing Communication.”
(b) To the extent it would be an Issuer Free Writing Communication, each of the Issuer, TILC
and Trinity consents to the use by the Initial Purchaser of a Free Writing Communication that (a)
contains only information describing the preliminary or final terms of the Offered Notes or the
offering thereof or (b) does not contain any material information about the Issuer, TILC, TRLWT or
Trinity or the securities of any of them that was provided by any of the Issuer, TILC, TRLWT and
Trinity or on behalf of any of them. Any such Free Writing Communication is a Permitted Free
Writing Communication for purposes of this Agreement.
7. Conditions of the Obligations of the Purchasers. The obligations of the Purchasers to
purchase and pay for the Offered Notes will be subject to the accuracy of the representations and
warranties on the part of the Issuer, TILC and Trinity herein, to the accuracy of the statements of
officers of the Issuer, TILC and Xxxxxxx made pursuant to the provisions hereof, to the performance
by each of the Issuer, TILC and Trinity of its obligations hereunder and to the following
additional conditions precedent on or prior to the Closing Date:
(a) The Purchasers shall have received from Deloitte LLP a letter or letters, dated as of the
date of the Preliminary Offering Circular and as of the Applicable Time, in form and substance
satisfactory to the Initial Purchaser and their counsel, stating in effect that they have performed
certain specified procedures, all of which have been agreed to by the Purchasers, as a result of
which they determined that certain information of an accounting, financial or statistical nature
set forth in the Preliminary Offering Circular and the final Offering Circular agrees with the
corresponding information included on or derived from a certain computer-generated railroad car
lease data file and related record layout, excluding any questions of legal interpretation.
(b) Subsequent to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, there shall not have
occurred: (i) any change, or any development or event involving a prospective change, in the
condition (financial or other), business, properties or results of operations of the Issuer, TILC,
TRLWT or Trinity and its subsidiaries taken as one enterprise which, in the judgment of a majority
in interest of the Purchasers, including the Initial Purchaser or any of its affiliates, is
material and adverse and makes it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with completion of the
offering or the sale of and payment for the Offered Notes; (ii) any downgrading in the rating of
any debt securities of TILC or Trinity by any “nationally recognized statistical rating
organization” (as defined for purposes of Rule 436(g) under the Securities Act), or any public
announcement that any such organization has under surveillance or review its rating of any debt
securities of TILC or Trinity (other than an announcement with positive implications of a possible
upgrading, and no implication of a possible downgrading, of such rating) or any announcement by
such organization that the Issuer, Trinity or TILC has been placed on negative outlook; (iii) any
change in U.S. or international financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange
rates or exchange controls as would, in the judgment of the majority in interest of the Purchasers

success of the proposed issue, sale or distribution of the Offered Notes,
-14-
whether in the primary
market or in respect of dealings in the secondary market; (iv) any material suspension or material
limitation of trading in securities generally on the New York

any exchange or in the over-the-counter market; (vi) any banking moratorium declared by U.S.
Federal or New York authorities; (vii) any major disruption of settlements of securities or
clearance services in the United States; or (viii) any attack on, outbreak or escalation of
hostilities or act of terrorism involving the United States, any declaration of war by Congress or
any other national or international calamity or emergency if, in the judgment of majority in
interest of the Purchasers including the Initial Purchaser or any of its affiliates, the effect of
any such attack, outbreak, escalation, act, declaration, calamity or emergency makes it impractical
or inadvisable to proceed with completion of the offering or sale of and payment for the Offered
Notes.

(ix) There are no pending actions, suits or proceedings against or affecting

other Transaction Document or which are otherwise material in the context of the
sale of the Offered Notes; and no such actions, suits or proceedings are threatened
or, to such counsel’s knowledge, contemplated;

the terms and provisions of, or constitute a default under, any statute, any rule,
regulation or order of any governmental agency or body or any court having
jurisdiction over the Issuer, TILC, TRLWT or Trinity or any of their properties, or
any agreement or instrument to which the Issuer, TILC, TRLWT or Trinity is a party

or formation documents of the Issuer, TILC, TRLWT or Trinity, and the Issuer has
full power and authority to authorize, issue and sell the Offered Notes as

(xi) Such counsel have no reason to believe that the Final Offering Document,
or any amendment or supplement thereto, as of the Applicable Time and as of the
Closing Date, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state
any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; and such
counsel have no reason to believe that the information specified in a schedule, if
any, to such counsel’s letter, which information, when taken together with the

material fact or omitted to state any material fact necessary to make the statements

of the Issuer, TILC, TRLWT and Trinity;

(xiv) The statements in the Preliminary Offering Circular and the Offering
Circular under the captions “The Issuer”, “The Railcars”, “The Lessees”, “The
Leases”, “The Manager”, “Description of the Management Agreement”,
-17-
“Description of
the Administrative Services Agreement”, “Description of the Asset Transfer
Agreement”, “Description of the Offered Notes and Indenture”
and “Description of the Parent Undertaking Agreement”, insofar as they purport
to summarize certain terms of the Offered Notes and the applicable Transaction
Documents, constitute a fair summary of the provisions purported to be summarized;
(xv) The statements contained in the Preliminary Offering Circular and the
Offering Circular under the captions “ERISA Considerations” and “Certain United

are correct in all material respects with respect to those consequences or matters
that are discussed therein;
(xvi) In the event of a bankruptcy proceeding of the Issuer under the
Bankruptcy Code, a court properly presented with the facts would hold that the
transfer of the Railcars and Leases from TILC to TRLWT and from TRLWT or TILC to the
Issuer and as contemplated by the Transaction Documents prior to such event would
constitute sales, and not secured loans, and that, accordingly, the Railcars and
Leases so transferred and the proceeds thereof would not constitute “property of the
estate” of the seller for purposes of Section 541 of the Bankruptcy Code and would
not as a result of such proceeding be subject to the automatic stay of Section
362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code; and
(xvii) In the event of a bankruptcy proceeding of TILC or TRLWT under the

Trinity, as the case may be, in this Agreement are true and correct, that each of the Issuer, TILC
and Trinity has complied with all agreements and satisfied all conditions on its part to be
performed or satisfied hereunder at or prior to the Closing Date, and that, subsequent to the date

to the execution and delivery of this Agreement the Hired NRSRO shall not have announced in writing
(which shall include, without limitation, any press release by such organization) that it has under

several, to which the Purchasers may become subject, under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act
or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect
thereof) arise out of or are based upon any breach of any of the representations, warranties and
covenants of the Issuer, TILC or Trinity contained herein or any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of any material fact contained in any document comprising a part of the Offering
Document, any Limited Use Issuer Free Writing Communication or any amendment or supplement thereto,
or any related preliminary offering circular or Additional Issuer Information, or arise out of or

reimburse the Purchasers for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Purchaser in
connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as
such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that none of the Issuer, TILC or Trinity will be
liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of
or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission
from any of such documents in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to
the Issuer, TILC or Trinity by any Purchaser through the Initial Purchaser specifically for use
therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information consists of the information
described as such in subsection (b) below.
(b) Each Purchaser will severally and not jointly indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer,
TILC and Trinity, their respective directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the
Issuer, TILC or Trinity within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against any losses,
claims, damages or liabilities to which the Issuer, TILC or Trinity may become subject, under the
Securities Act or the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any document comprising a part of the
Offering Document, any Limited Use Issuer Free Writing Communication or any amendment or supplement
thereto, or any related preliminary offering circular, or arise out of or are based upon the
omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the
statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading,
in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished to the Issuer, TILC or Trinity by such Purchaser through the Initial
Purchaser specifically for use therein, and will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by the Issuer, TILC or Trinity in connection with investigating or defending any such
loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred, it being understood and
agreed that the only such information furnished by any Purchaser consists of the following
information in the Offering Document furnished on behalf of each Purchaser: under the caption “Plan
of Distribution”, the second sentence of the second paragraph, the third paragraph, fourth
paragraph, ninth paragraph, the second and third sentences of the tenth paragraph and the twelfth
paragraph thereunder; provided, however, that the Purchasers shall not be
liable for any losses, claims, damages or liabilities arising out of or based upon the Issuer’s,
TILC’s or Trinity’s failure to perform its obligations under Section 5(a) of this Agreement.
(c) Each Other Purchaser will severally and not jointly indemnify and hold harmless the
Initial Purchaser, its respective officers, partners, members, directors and affiliates and each
person, if any, who controls the Initial Purchaser, within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the
Initial Purchaser may become subject, under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or otherwise,
insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of
or are based upon any breach by such Other Purchaser of the covenants contained in Section 6(a) of
this Agreement, and will reimburse the Initial Purchaser for any legal or other
-21-
expenses reasonably
incurred by the Initial Purchaser in connection with investigating or defending any such loss,
claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred.
(d) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section of notice of the
commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be
made against the indemnifying party under subsection (a), (b) or (c) above, notify the indemnifying
party of the commencement thereof; but the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not
relieve it from any liability that it may have under subsection (a), (b) or (c) above except to the
extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or
defenses) by such failure; and provided further that the failure to notify the indemnifying party
shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than
under subsection (a), (b) or (c) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified
party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party
will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other
indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to
such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnifying party, be
counsel to the indemnified party), and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified
party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable
to such indemnified party under this Section for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred
by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of
investigation. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified
party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in respect of which such
indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by
such indemnified party unless such settlement includes (i) an unconditional release of such
indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such action and
(ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by
or on behalf of such indemnified party.
(e) If the indemnification provided for in this Section is unavailable or insufficient to
hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party
shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses,
claims, damages or liabilities referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in such proportion as
is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Issuer, TILC, TRLWT and Trinity on
the one hand and the Purchasers on the other from the offering of the Offered Notes or (ii) if the
allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as
is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also
the relative fault of the Issuer, TILC, TRLWT and Trinity on the one hand and the Purchasers on the
other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages
or liabilities as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits
received by the Issuer, TILC, TRLWT and Trinity on the one hand and the Purchasers on the other
shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before
deducting expenses) received by the Issuer bear to the total discounts, commissions and fees
received by the Purchasers from the Issuer under this Agreement. The relative fault shall be
determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information
supplied by the Issuer, TILC, TRLWT, Trinity or the Purchasers and the parties’ relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to
-22-
correct or prevent such untrue statement or
omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or
liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (e) shall be deemed to include any
legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by
such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which
is the subject of this subsection (e). Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (e), no
Purchaser shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the total discounts, commissions
and fees received by such Purchaser from the Issuer. The obligations of the Purchasers in this
subsection (e) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective purchase obligations and
not joint.
(f) If the indemnification provided for in this Section is unavailable or insufficient to
hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (c) above, then each indemnifying party shall
contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses,
claims, damages or liabilities referred to in subsection (c) above in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the applicable Other Purchaser on the one hand and the
Initial Purchaser on the other as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The amount
paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to
in the first sentence of this subsection (f) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any
action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (f).
(g) The obligations of the Issuer, TILC and Trinity under this Section shall be in addition
to any liability which the Issuer, TILC or Trinity may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the
same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls any Purchaser within the meaning of
the Securities Act or the Exchange Act; and the obligations of the Purchasers under this Section
shall be in addition to any liability which the such Purchaser may otherwise have and shall extend,
upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls the Issuer, TILC or
Trinity within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act. The obligations of each Other
Purchaser under subsections (c) and (f) above shall be in addition to any liability which such
Other Purchaser may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each
person, if any, who controls the Initial Purchaser within the meaning of the Securities Act or the
Exchange Act.
9. Default of Purchasers. If any Purchaser or Purchasers default in their obligations to
purchase Offered Notes hereunder and the aggregate principal amount of Offered Notes that such
defaulting Purchaser or Purchasers agreed but failed to purchase does not exceed 10% of the total
principal amount of the Offered Notes, the Initial Purchaser may make arrangements satisfactory to
the Issuer for the purchase of such Offered Notes by other persons, including any of the
Purchasers, but if no such arrangements are made by the Closing Date, the non-defaulting Purchasers
shall be obligated severally, in proportion to their respective commitments hereunder, to purchase
the Offered Notes that such defaulting Purchaser or Purchasers agreed but failed to purchase. If
any Purchaser or Purchasers so default and the aggregate principal amount of Offered Notes with
respect to which such default or defaults occur exceeds 10% of the total principal amount of
Offered Notes and arrangements satisfactory to the Initial Purchaser and the Issuer for the
purchase of such Offered Notes by other persons are not made within 36 hours after such default,
this Agreement will terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Purchaser or the
Issuer, TILC or Trinity, except as provided in Section 10. As used in this Agreement, the
-23-
term
“Purchaser” includes any person substituted for a Purchaser under this Section. Nothing herein will
relieve a defaulting Purchaser from liability for its default.
10. Survival of Certain Representations and Obligations. The respective indemnities,
agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Issuer, TILC, Trinity or their
respective officers and of the several Purchasers set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement
will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation, or statement as to the
results thereof, made by or on behalf of any Purchaser, the Issuer, TILC, Trinity or any of their
respective representatives, officers or directors or any controlling person, and will survive
delivery of and payment for the Offered Notes. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section
9 or if for any reason the purchase of the Offered Notes by the Purchasers is not consummated, the
Issuer, TILC and Trinity shall remain responsible for the expenses to be paid or reimbursed by them
pursuant to Section 5 and the respective obligations of the Issuer, TILC, Trinity, and the
Purchasers pursuant to Section 8 shall remain in effect. Further, if the purchase of the Offered
Notes by the Purchasers is not consummated for any reason other than solely because of the
termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9, the Issuer, TILC or Trinity will reimburse the
Purchasers for all out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) reasonably
incurred by them in connection with the offering of the Offered Notes.
11. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and, if sent to the Purchasers
will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to the Purchasers, c/o Credit Suisse
Securities (USA) LLC, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, X.X. 10010-3629, Attention: Transactions
Advisory Group; if sent to the Issuer, TILC or Trinity, as the case may be, will be mailed,
delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to it at c/o Trinity Industries, Inc., 0000 Xxxxxxxx
Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 00000, Attention: Vice President Leasing Operations Re: (TRL 2010);
provided, however, that any notice to the Purchasers pursuant to Section 8 will be mailed,
delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to such Purchaser.
12. Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties
hereto and their respective successors and the controlling persons referred to in Section 8, and no
other person will have any right or obligation hereunder, except that holders of Offered Notes
shall be entitled to enforce the agreements for their benefit contained in the second and third
sentences of Section 5(b) hereof against the Issuer as if such holders were parties thereto.
13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one
and the same Agreement.
14. Absence of Fiduciary Relationship. Each of the Issuer, TILC and Xxxxxxx acknowledges and
agrees that:
(a) The Purchasers have been retained solely to act as initial purchasers in connection with
the initial purchase, offering and resale of the Offered Notes and that no fiduciary, advisory or
agency relationship between any of the Issuer, TILC, TRLWT or Trinity or their respective
affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees, on the one hand, and the Purchasers, on the other
hand, has been created in respect of any of the transactions
-24-
contemplated by this Agreement or the
Offering Document, irrespective of whether any Purchaser has advised or is advising the Issuer,
TILC, TRLWT or Trinity on other matters;
(b) the purchase and sale of the Offered Notes pursuant to this Agreement, including the
determination of the offering price of the Offered Notes and any related discount and commissions,
is an arm’s-length commercial transaction among the Purchasers, the Issuer, TILC and Trinity and
the Issuer, TILC and Trinity are capable of evaluating and understanding, and do understand and
hereby accept, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;
(c) the Issuer, TILC, TRLWT and Trinity have been advised that the Purchasers and their
affiliates are engaged in a broad range of transactions which may involve interests that differ
from those of the Issuer, TILC, TRLWT and Trinity and that no Purchaser has any obligation to
disclose such interests and transactions to any of the Issuer, TILC, TRLWT or Trinity by virtue of
any fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship; and
(d) each of the Issuer, TILC or Trinity waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any
claims it may have against any Purchaser for breach of fiduciary duty or alleged breach of
fiduciary duty and agrees that no Purchaser shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect)
to any of the Issuer, TILC or Trinity in respect of such a fiduciary duty claim or to any person
asserting a fiduciary duty claim on behalf of or in right of any of the Issuer, TILC or Trinity,
including stockholders, employees or creditors of the Issuer, TILC or Trinity.
15. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with,
the laws of the state of New York without regard to principles of conflicts of laws.
Each of the Issuer, TILC and Trinity hereby submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the
Federal and state courts in the Borough of Manhattan in The City of New York in any suit or
proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.
16. No Petition in Bankruptcy. Each Purchaser agrees that, prior to the date which is one
year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding Offered Notes, such Purchaser will
not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, the Issuer an action in
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or similar
proceeding under the laws of the United States or any state of the United States.
17. Integration. As to the matters set forth in this Agreement, so long as this Agreement is
in full force and effect, the provisions herein shall supersede any and all prior agreements as to
such subject matter, including, but not limited to, the Engagement Letter.
