EXHIBIT 10.2
NEBRASKA NORTHEASTERN RAILWAY COMPANY
INDUSTRY TRACK AGREEMENT
THIS INDUSTRY TRACK AGREEMENT ("Agreement") made as of this 24th day of July,
2007, ("Effective Date") by and between NEBRASKA NORTHEASTERN RAILWAY COMPANY, a
Nevada corporation ("Railroad"), and NEDAK ETHANOL, LLC, a Nebraska Limited
Liability Company ("Industry").
WHEREAS, Industry desires to (i) construct and maintain railroad track on and
over such rights and ownership as Railroad may have in certain real property in
or near O'Neill, County of Xxxx, State of Nebraska as shown in heavy solid on
Exhibit "A" and legally described on Exhibit "B" attached hereto and
incorporated herein ("Railroad Track"); (ii) construct and maintain railroad
track on and over certain real property to be leased by Industry, all as shown
as heavy hatched on Exhibit "A" and legally described on Exhibit "B-1"
("Industry Track"); and
WHEREAS, Industry desires that Railroad operate over the Railroad Track and the
Industry Track (collectively, together with all appurtenances, called "Track"),
to serve an ethanol transload facility operated by Industry in west O'Neill,
County of Xxxx, State of Nebraska ("Transload Facility"), and Railroad desires
to provide such service, subject to the terms of this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, the
parties agree as follows:
1. OWNERSHIP. Railroad shall own the Railroad Track, and Industry shall own
the Industry Track. Railroad hereby grants Industry, subject to all non-fee,
underlying or reversionary interests, reservations, easements and other
encumbrances, of record or otherwise, including the rights of the public, if
any, in and to those portions of the property described on Exhibit "B" lying
within boundaries of any public streets, alleys and thoroughfares, a
non-exclusive easement to enter upon Railroad's real property to construct and
maintain (but not to operate railroad locomotives, cars or trains) the Railroad
Track pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
2. CONSTRUCTION, MAINTENANCE AND OPERATION.
(a) Industry shall be responsible for obtaining, without expense to
Railroad, all necessary real property rights and public authority and
permission, including applicable permits, for the construction and maintenance
of the Track hereunder. Industry shall strictly comply with all laws, statutes,
regulations, ordinances, orders, covenants and restrictions, or decisions of any
court of competent jurisdiction, including, without limitation, those pertaining
to environmental matters (collectively, "Legal Requirements") and other Railroad
requirements relating to the use of the Track, Facilities or Equipment.
(b) Industry shall at all times, and at its sole risk and expense,
maintain, or cause to be maintained, the Track and all facilities and equipment
(if any) thereon in a safe and satisfactory condition and in compliance with all
applicable Legal Requirements. Maintenance means, among other things, providing
proper drainage along the relevant portion of the Track, expeditiously keeping
the Track free and clear of snow, ice, vegetation, structures, and other
1
obstacles, maintaining grade crossing warning devices, passive warning signs,
gates, fences, barriers, roadways, track drainage facilities, lighting and track
and other signals. Industry shall assure that the Track complies with the
conditions of the Conditional Use Permit issued by the City of X'Xxxxx in
connection with the construction of the Transload Facility. Without relieving
Industry from any of its obligations under this Agreement, Railroad may refuse
to operate over the Track or use or enter the Facilities or contact the
Equipment whenever Railroad, in its sole discretion determines that the same is
unsatisfactory for Railroad's operation, entry or contact. If and when Industry
has remedied such condition to Railroad's sole satisfaction, railroad shall
resume operation over the Track or use of or entry into the Facilities or
contact with the Equipment. Railroad's operation over the Track or use of or
entry into any Facility or contact with any Equipment with knowledge of an
unsatisfactory condition is not a waiver of Industry's obligations contained
herein or of Railroad's right to recover for or be indemnified and defended
against such damages to property or injury to or death of persons that may
result therefrom.
(c) Industry shall, at its sole expense, pay all costs for changes, repairs
or alterations to the Industry Track that may be necessary to conform to any
alterations of grade or relocation of the Railroad Track at the point of
connection with the Industry Track, if such alteration of grade or relocation is
required to comply with any Legal Requirement or is made for any other reason
beyond Railroad's reasonable control. Railroad shall provide Industry reasonable
notice should any such changes, repairs or alterations be required to Industry
Track.
(d) If Industry installs any gates or fencing across the Industry Track, or
a track scale, unloading pit, loading or unloading device, adjustable loading
dock, warehouse door, or any other structure (collectively, "Facilities")
affecting the Industry Track, Industry shall be solely responsible for assuring
the safe and satisfactory condition of the same and shall not allow any
Facilities to be a source of danger to the safe operation of the Industry Track.
Industry shall also be solely responsible for assuring the safe and satisfactory
condition of all of Industry's equipment touching, used in conjunction with or
affecting the Industry Track ("Equipment") and shall now allow any Equipment to
be source of danger to the safer operation of the Industry Track. Before
utilizing or unloading any equipment spotted onto the Industry Track, Industry
shall inspect the same and all other Equipment and Facilities for the safety of
persons working on or about these items to assure compliance with the foregoing.
Industry shall utilize all Facilities, Equipment and spotted equipment so as not
to affect negatively safe and efficient operation over the Industry Track.
Industry shall, among other things: keep any gates across the Industry Track
open whenever necessary, in Railroad's reasonable judgment, to enable Railroad
to safely and efficiently operate over the Industry Track; keep unloading pits
securely covered when not in actual use and at all times when the Track is being
switched by Railroad; keep all doors firmly secured; and keep adjustable loading
docks at warehouses securely fastened in an upright position when not in actual
use and at all times when the Industry Track is being switched by Railroad,
(e) Railroad may require for safety purposes that Industry, at its sole
cost and expense, provide flagmen, lights, traffic control devices, automatic
warning devices, or any such safety measure that Railroad reasonably deems
appropriate in connection with Railroad's operation over the Industry Track. In
the event Railroad provides reasonable notice to Industry that such safety
measures are required, and Industry does not provide such safety measures, then
Industry shall reimburse Railroad within thirty (30) days of receipt of xxxx
therefor for all costs
2
expended by Railroad, including but not limited to the reasonable cost of
Railroad's Flagman in connection with this Section 2(e).
(f) In the event the public authority having jurisdiction thereover orders
the separation of the grade of the Industry Track and any street, road, highway,
other rail line or the like, Industry will cause the removal and/or relocation
of the Industry Track. In the event Industry does not cause such removal and/or
relocation of the Industry Track, then Industry shall reimburse Railroad all
expenses which Railroad incurs in connection with the required removal and/or
relocation of the Industry Track.
(g) Neither Railroad nor Industry shall place, permit to be placed, or
allow to remain, any permanent or temporary material, structure, pole,
container, storage vessel, above-ground or underground tank, or other
obstruction within 8 1/2 feet laterally from the center (nine and one-half
(9-1/2) feet on either side of the centerline of curved Track) or within 24 feet
vertically from the top of the rail of said Track ("Minimal Clearances"),
provided that if any Legal Requirement requires greater clearances than those
provided for in this Section 2(g), then Railroad and Industry shall strictly
comply with such Legal Requirement. Industry shall not place or allow to be
placed any freight car within 250 feet of either side of any at-grade crossings
on the Track. Railroad's operation over the Track with knowledge of an
unauthorized reduced clearance will not be a waiver of the covenants of Industry
contained in this Section 2(g) or of Railroad's right to recover and be
indemnified and defended by Industry against such damages to property, or injury
to or death of persons, that may result therefrom.
(h) Upon termination of this Agreement, the Railroad Track shall be the
sole property of Railroad without further cost or expense, and the Industry
Track shall be the sole property of Industry without further cost or expense.
3. RAIL SERVICE
(a) Railroad agrees, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, its
tariffs, circulars, rules and rail transportation contracts, to operate over the
Track in the delivery, placement and removal of railcars consigned to or ordered
by Industry, at such times established by Railroad. Railroad may also use
Industry Track for its own general or emergency operating purposes, so long as
such purposes do not materially affect the use of the Industry Track for rail
service to Industry, provided, further that such use shall not be as a common
carrier subject to the entry or exit jurisdiction of the Surface Transportation
Board pursuant to the ICC Termination Act or any other federal or state statute
or regulation.
(b) Industry shall not permit the use of the Industry Track by or for the
account of third parties without the written consent of Railroad. If such use
occurs without such consent, Industry assumes the same responsibilities, as
stated in this Agreement for such use as if for its own account. Railroad shall
not be required to provide rail service to such third parties.
(c) Railroad shall be deemed to have delivered any railcar consigned to or
ordered by Industry when such railcar has been placed at the Transload Facility,
so as to allow access by Industry, and Railroad's locomotive has uncoupled from
the railcar. At that time, Railroad shall be relieved of all liability as a
carrier or as a bailee, and possession of the railcar and its contents
3
shall be transferred to Industry. Similarly, any obligation of Railroad as a
carrier or as a bailee shall not begin until it has coupled its locomotive to
the loaded railcar and departed the Transload facility.
(d) Industry is responsible for all railcars and their contents while in
Industry's possession and assumes all responsibility for payment of all damage
to any rail and its contents that may occur during that time, even if caused by
third parties.
(e) If Railroad is unable to deliver a railcar at the Transload Facility
for loading or unloading due to the acts of Industry or any third party, then
such railcar will be considered as constructively placed for demurrage purposes
at the time of attempted delivery.
4. TERM. Unless earlier terminated as provided herein, this Agreement will be
in force for the term of five (5) years from the Effective Date, and will
automatically continue thereafter until terminated by either party giving to the
other thirty (30) days' written notice.

maintain insurance coverage as set forth herein.
(ii) Prior to commencing operations governed by this Agreement,
Industry shall furnish to Railroad an acceptable certificate(s) of
insurance including an original signature of the authorized representative
evidencing the required coverage, endorsements, and amendments and

Agreement immediately if such failure is not remedied by Industry within
five (5) days from notice by Railroad. Acceptance of a certificate that

(c) All insurance maintained by Industry under this Agreement shall name
Railroad as an additional insured.
(d) Industry and Railroad each agree to cause to be included in their
respective policies of insurance the agreement of the insurer thereof that said
policies shall not be invalidated by a waiver of claim by the insured against
Industry or Railroad, as the case may be, and each will furnish evidence thereof
to the other. Each party hereto does hereby remise, release and discharge the
other party hereto, and any officer, agent, employee or representative of such
party, of and from any liability whatsoever hereafter arising from loss, damage
or injury for which insurance (permitting waiver of liability and containing a
waiver of subrogation) is required to be carried by the injured party pursuant
to the term of this Agreement at the time of such loss, damage or injury.

and material costs including all assignable additives, and material and supply
costs at current value where used. In the event that Industry shall fail to pay

6
the invoice date, then Industry shall pay interest on such unpaid sum from such
due date until paid at an annual rate equal to the lesser of (i) the prime rate

obligation to defend and hold Railroad harmless in any prior written agreement
between the parties.
(d) The waiver by Railroad of the breach of any provision herein by
Industry shall in no way impair the right of Railroad to enforce that provision
for any subsequent breach thereof. All remedies provided hereunder are
cumulative and are in addition to all other remedies available at law or in
equity.
(e) This Agreement is also made for the benefit of such other railroads
that, either by agreement with Railroad or order of competent public authority,
