balance owed. Political Body shall pay the Railroad within thirty (30) days of its receipt of all
bills submitted by the Railroad.
3. The Railroad, at its cost, shall maintain the crossing between the track tie ends.

twenty-five (25) feet of any of Railroad's track(s) at any time, for any reason, unless and until a Railroad flagman is provided to watch
for trains. Upon receipt of such ten (10) -day notice, the Railroad Representative will determine and inform Contractor whether a
flagman need be present and whether Contractor needs to implement any special protective or safety measures. If flagging or other
special protective or safety measures are performed by Railroad, Railroad will bill Contractor for such expenses incurred by Railroad,
unless Railroad and a federal, state or local govemmental entity have agreed that Railroad is to bill such expenses to the federal,
state or local govemmental entity. If Railroad will be sending the bills to Contractor, Contractor shall pay such bills within thirty (30)
days of Contractors receipt of billing. If Railroad performs any flagging, or other special protective or safety measures are performed
by Railroad, Contractor agrees that Contractor is not relieved of any of its responsibilities or liabilities set forth in this Agreement.
B. The rate of pay per hour for each flagman will be the prevailing hourly rate in effect for an eight-hour day for the class of flagmen
used during regularly assigned hours and overtime in accordance with Labor Agreements and Schedules in effect at the time the
work is performed. In addition to the cost of such labor, a composite charge for vacation, holiday, health and welfare, supplemental
sickness, Railroad Retirement and unemployment compensation, supplemental pension, Employees Liability and Property Damage
and Administration will be included, computed on actual payroll. The composite charge will be the prevailing composite charge in
effect at the time the work is performed. One and one-half times the current hourly rate is paid for overtime, Saturdays and Sundays,
and two and one-half times current hourly rate for holidays. Wage rates are subject to change, at any time, by law or by agreement
between Railroad and its employees, and may be retroactive as a result of negotiations or a ruling of an authorized govemmental
agency. Additional charges on labor are also subject to change. If the wage rate or additional charges are changed, Contractor (or
the governmental entity, as applicable) shall pay on the basis of the new rates and charges.
C. Reimbursement to Railroad will be required covering the full eight-hour day during which any flagman is furnished, unless the
flagman can be assigned to other Railroad work during a portion of such day, in which event reimbursement will not be required for
the portion of the day during which the flagman is engaged in other Railroad work. Reimbursement will also be required for any day
not actually worked by the flagman following the flagman's assignment to work on the project for which Railroad is required to pay
the flagman and which could not reasonably be avoided by Railroad by assignment of such flagman to other work , even though
Contractor may not be working during such time. When it becomes necessary for Railroad to bulletin and assign an employee to
a flagging position in compliance with union collective bargaining agreements, Contractor must provide Railroad a minimum of five
(5) days notice prior to the cessation of the need for a flagman. If five (5) days notice of cessation is not given, Contractor will still
be required to pay flagging charges for the five (5) day notice period required by union agreement to be given to the employee, even
though flagging is not required for that period. An additional ten (10) days notice must then be given to Railroad if flagging services
are needed again after such five clay cessation notice has been given to Railroad.

EXHIBIT A
TO CONTRACTOR'S RIGHT OF ENTRY AGREEMENT
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Section 1. NOTICE OF COMMENCEMENT OF WORK - FLAGGING.
A. Contractor agrees to notify the Railroad Representative at least ten (10) working days in advance of Contractor commencing
its work and at least ten (10) working days in advance of proposed performance of any work by Contractor in which any person or
equipment will be within twenty-five (25) feet of any track, or will be near enough to any track that any equipment extension (such
as, but not limited to, a crane boom) will reach to within twenty-five (25) feet of any track. No work of any kind shall be performed,
and no person, equipment, machinery, tool(s), material(s), vehicle(s), or thing(s) shall be located, operated, placed, or stored within
twenty-five (25) feet of any of Railroad's track(s) at any time, for any reason, unless and until a Railroad flagman is provided to watch
for trains. Upon receipt of such ten (10) -day notice, the Railroad Representative will determine and inform Contractor whether a
flagman need be present and whether Contractor needs to implement any special protective or safety measures. If flagging or other
special protective or safety measures are performed by Railroad, Railroad will bill Contractor for such expenses incurred by Railroad,
unless Railroad and a federal, state or local governmental entity have agreed that Railroad is to bill such expenses to the federal,
state or local govemmental entity. If Railroad will be sending the bills to Contractor, Contractor shall pay such bills within thirty (30)
days of Contractor's receipt of billing. If Railroad performs any flagging, or other special protective or safety measures are performed
by Railroad, Contractor agrees that Contractor is not relieved of any of its responsibilities or liabilities set forth in this Agreement.
B. The rate of pay per hour for each flagman will be the prevailing hourly rate in effect for an eight-hour day for the class of flagmen
used during regularly assigned hours and overtime in accordance with Labor Agreements and Schedules in effect at the time the
work is performed. In addition to the cost of such labor, a composite charge for vacation, holiday, health and welfare, supplemental
sickness, Railroad Retirement and unemployment compensation, supplemental pension, Employees Liability and Property Damage
and Administration will be included, computed on actual payroll. The composite charge will be the prevailing composite charge in
effect at the time the work is performed. One and one-half times the current hourly rate is paid for overtime, Saturdays and Sundays,
and two and one-half times current hourly rate for holidays. Wage rates are subject to change, at any time, by law or by agreement
between Railroad and its employees, and may be retroactive as a result of negotiations or a ruling of an authorized governmental
agency. Additional charges on labor are also subject to change. If the wage rate or additional charges are changed, Contractor (or
the govemmental entity, as applicable) shall pay on the basis of the new rates and charges.
C. Reimbursement to Railroad will be required covering the full eight-hour day during which any flagman is fumished, unless the
flagman can be assigned to other Railroad work during a portion of such day, in which event reimbursement will not be required for
the portion of the day during which the flagman is engaged in other Railroad work. Reimbursement will also be required for any day
not actually worked by the flagman following the flagman's assignment to work on the project for which Railroad is required to pay
the flagman and which could not reasonably be avoided by Railroad by assignment of such flagman to other work , even though
Contractor may not be working during such time. When it becomes necessary for Railroad to bulletin and assign an employee to
a flagging position in compliance with union collective bargaining agreements, Contractor must provide Railroad a minimum of five
(5) days notice prior to the cessation of the need for a flagman. If five (5) days notice of cessation is not given, Contractor will still
be required to pay flagging charges for the five (5) day notice period required by union agreement to be given to the employee, even
though flagging is not required for that period. An additional ten (10) days notice must then be given to Railroad if flagging services
are needed again after such five day cessation notice has been given to Railroad.

EXHIBIT A
TO CONTRACTOR'S RIGHT OF ENTRY AGREEMENT
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Section 1. NOTICE OF COMMENCEMENT OF WORK - FLAGGING.
A. Contractor agrees to notify the Railroad Representative at least ten (10) working days in advance of Contractor commencing
its work and at least ten (10) working days in advance of proposed performance of any work by Contractor in which any person or
equipment will be within twenty-five (25) feet of any track, or will be near enough to any track that any equipment extension (such
as, but not limited to, a crane boom) will reach to within twenty-five (25) feet of any track. No work of any kind shall be performed,
and no person, equipment, machinery, tool(s), material(s), vehicle(s), or thing(s) shall be located, operated, placed, or stored within
twenty-five (25) feet of any of Railroad's track(s) at any time, for any reason, unless and until a Railroad flagman is provided to watch
for trains. Upon receipt of such ten (10) -day notice, the Railroad Representative will determine and inform Contractor whether a
flagman need be present and whether Contractor needs to implement any special protective or safety measures. If flagging or other
special protective or safety measures are performed by Railroad, Railroad will bill Contractor for such expenses incurred by Railroad,
unless Railroad and a federal, state or local governmental entity have agreed that Railroad is to bill such expenses to the federal,
state or local governmental entity. If Railroad will be sending the bills to Contractor, Contractor shall pay such bills within thirty (30)
days of Contractor's receipt of billing. If Railroad performs any flagging, or other special protective or safety measures are performed
by Railroad, Contractor agrees that Contractor is not relieved of any of its responsibilities or liabilities set forth in this Agreement.
B. The rate of pay per hour for each flagman will be the prevailing hourly rate in effect for an eight-hour day for the class of flagmen
used during regularly assigned hours and overtime in accordance with Labor Agreements and Schedules in effect at the time the
work is performed. In addition to the cost of such labor, a composite charge for vacation, holiday, health and welfare, supplemental
sickness, Railroad Retirement and unemployment compensation, supplemental pension, Employees Liability and Property Damage
and Administration will be included, computed on actual payroll. The composite charge will be the prevailing composite charge in
effect at the time the work is performed. One and one-half times the current hourly rate is paid for overtime, Saturdays and Sundays,
and two and one-half times current hourly rate for holidays. Wage rates are subject to change, at any time, by law or by agreement
between Railroad and its employees, and may be retroactive as a result of negotiations or a ruling of an authorized governmental
agency. Additional charges on labor are also subject to change. If the wage rate or additional charges are changed, Contractor (or
the govemmental entity, as applicable) shall pay on the basis of the new rates and charges.
C. Reimbursement to Railroad will be required covering the full eight-hour day during which any flagman is fumished, unless the
flagman can be assigned to other Railroad work during a portion of such day, in which event reimbursement will not be required for
the portion of the day during which the flagman is engaged in other Railroad work. Reimbursement will also be required for any day
not actually worked by the flagman following the flagman's assignment to work on the project for which Railroad is required to pay
the flagman and which could not reasonably be avoided by Railroad by assignment of such flagman to other work , even though
Contractor may not be working during such time. When it becomes necessary for Railroad to bulletin and assign an employee to
a flagging position in compliance with union collective bargaining agreements, Contractor must provide Railroad a minimum of five
(5) days notice prior to the cessation of the need for a flagman. If five (5) days notice of cessation is not given, Contractor will still
be required to pay flagging charges for the five (5) day notice period required by union agreement to be given to the employee, even
though flagging is not required for that period. An additional ten (10) days notice must then be given to Railroad if flagging services
are needed again after such five day cessation notice has been given to Railroad.
Section 2. LIMITATION AND SUBORDINATION OF RIGHTS GRANTED
A. The foregoing grant of right is subject and subordinate to the prior and continuing right and obligation of the Railroad to use and
maintain its entire property including the right and power of Railroad to construct, maintain, repair, renew, use, operate, change,
modify or relocate railroad tracks, roadways, signal, communication, fiber optics, or other wirelines, pipelines and other facilities upon,
along or across any or all parts of its property, all or any of which may be freely done at any time or times by Railroad without liability
to Contractor or to any other party for compensation or damages.
B. The foregoing grant is also subject to all outstanding superior rights (including those in favor of licensees and lessees of
Railroad's property, and others) and the right of Railroad to renew and extend the same, and is made without covenant of title or for
quiet enjoyment.

Section 3. NO INTERFERENCE WITH OPERATIONS OF RAILROAD AND ITS TENANTS.
A. Contractor shall conduct its operations so as not to interfere with the continuous and uninterrupted use and operation of the
railroad tracks and property of Railroad, including without limitation, the operations of Railroad's lessees, licensees or others, unless
specifically authorized in advance by the Railroad Representative. Nothing shall be done or permitted to be done by Contractor at
any time that would in any manner impair the safety of such operations. When not in use, Contractors machinery and materials shall
be kept at least fifty (50) feet from the centerline of Railroad's nearest track, and there shall be no vehicular crossings of Railroads
tracks except at existing open public crossings.
B. Operations of Railroad and work performed by Railroad personnel and delays in the work to be performed by Contractor caused
by such railroad operations and work are expected by Contractor, and Contractor agrees that Railroad shall have no liability to
Contractor, or any other person or entity for any such delays. The Contractor shall coordinate its activities with those of Railroad
and third parties so as to avoid interference with railroad operations. The safe operation of Railroad train movements and other
activities by Railroad takes precedence over any work to be performed by Contractor.
Section 4. LIENS.
Contractor shall pay in full all persons who perform labor or provide materials for the work to be performed by Contractor.
Contractor shall not create, permit or suffer any mechanic's or materialmen's liens of any kind or nature to be created or enforced
against any property of Railroad for any such work performed. Contractor shall indemnify and hold harmless Railroad from and
against any and all liens, claims, demands, costs or expenses of whatsoever nature in any way connected with or growing out of
such work done, labor performed, or materials furnished. If Contractor fails to promptly cause any lien to be released of record,
Railroad may, at its election, discharge the lien or claim of lien at Contractor's expense.
Section 5. PROTECTION OF FIBER OPTIC CABLE SYSTEMS.
A. Fiber optic cable systems may be buried on Railroad's property. Protection of the fiber optic cable systems is of extreme
importance since any break could disrupt service to users resulting in business interruption and loss of revenue and profits.
Contractor shall telephone Railroad during normal business hours (7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Central Time, Monday through Friday,
except holidays) at 1-800-336-9193 (also a 24-hour, 7 -day number for emergency calls) to determine if fiber optic cable is buried
anywhere on Railroad's property to be used by Contractor. If it is, Contractor will telephone the telecommunications company(ies)
involved, make arrangements for a cable locator and, if applicable, for relocation or other protection of the fiber optic cable.
Contractor shall not commence any work until all such protection or relocation (if applicable) has been accomplished.
B. In addition to other indemnity provisions in this Agreement, Contractor shall indemnify, defend and hold Railroad harmless
from and against all costs, liability and expense whatsoever (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees, court costs and expenses)
arising out of any act or omission of Contractor, its agents and/or employees, that causes or contributes to (1) any damage to or
destruction of any telecommunications system on Railroad's property, and/or (2) any injury to or death of any person employed by
or on behalf of any telecommunications company, and/or its contractor, agents and/or employees, on Railroad's property. Contractor
shall not have or seek recourse against Railroad for any claim or cause of action for alleged loss of profits or revenue or loss of
service or other consequential damage to a telecommunication company using Railroad's property or a customer or user of services
of the fiber optic cable on Railroad's property.
Section 6. PERMITS - COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS.
In the prosecution of the work covered by this Agreement, Contractor shall secure any and all necessary permits and shall
comply with all applicable federal, state and local laws, regulations and enactments affecting the work including, without limitation,
