Agent is in the business of marketing and selling assets on behalf of its clients. The Company is the owner, lessee and possessor of the Rolling Stock Assets (as defined below) and desires to engage Agent as its exclusive agent to sell such assets as more fully described herein. Therefore, in consideration of the covenants contained herein, Agent and the Company (individually, each a “Party,” and together, the “Parties”) do hereby agree as follows:

I.	Engagement and Agreement to Market Rolling Stock Assets

A. The Company hereby engages Agent as its exclusive marketing and sales agent, and Agent hereby accepts such engagement, with respect to the marketing, sale, and disposition of the Company’s rolling stock, machinery and equipment (the “Rolling Stock Assets”) located at, in, or in the vicinity of the properties owned or leased by the Company (the “Company Properties”), which Rolling Stock Assets are specifically identified in Exhibit A attached hereto and by this reference incorporated herein.¹

B. For purposes of marketing and selling the Rolling Stock Assets, Agent shall market and sell the Rolling Stock Assets during the Term (defined below) of this Agreement substantially consistent with the Disposition Plan (defined below) utilizing private treaty, online, webcast, or unreserved public auctions, and such other sale strategies as the Company (in consultation with the Consultation Parties (as defined in the Bidding Procedures Order) (as defined below)) and Agent mutually agree.²

C. The Company and its advisors, in consultation with the Consultation Parties, shall work with Agent promptly to identify any Rolling Stock Assets that are subject to an executory contract or unexpired lease, and Agent shall, within thirty (30) days following the entry of the Retention Order (defined below), evaluate whether assumption and assignment or rejection of such contracts or leases will maximize value for the Debtors and their estates. The Company shall cooperate with Agent in connection with Agent’s review of executory contracts and unexpired leases. Agent will also, within thirty (30) days following the entry of the Retention Order, recommend which contracts and leases shall be assumed or develop an alternate strategy with respect to all or any of such contracts and leases subject to the Company’s input in consultation with the Consultation Parties. Any assumption of an executory contract or lease, the sale by the

Unless otherwise set forth herein, any Assets (as defined in the Bidding Procedures Order) not specifically set forth at Exhibit A attached hereto shall not be considered Rolling Stock Assets for purposes of this Agreement. Assets that are in the possession or under the control of third parties may become Rolling Stock Assets and added to Exhibit A once possession is obtained by the Debtors. The Parties reserve the right to amend Exhibit A by mutual written agreement during the Term.

²	For the avoidance of doubt, any reference herein to the consultation rights of the Consultation Parties shall mean the Company’s (not Agent’s) obligation to consult with the Consultation Parties in each applicable case.

Agent of any leased Assets listed at Exhibit B hereto, or alternative strategy with respect to such contracts and leases, shall be subject to the Company’s consent in consultation with the Consultation Parties. A schedule of the Company’s leased or financed Rolling Stock Assets, which may be marketed and sold by the Agent pursuant to this Agreement, and exclusive of the Rolling Stock Assets that are the subject of leases or financings as to which the Debtors have stipulated as of the Effective Date to stay relief, is shown in Exhibit B.³

Rolling Stock Assets comprise the property identified in Exhibit A hereto, together with (in each case only if and to the extent currently in the Company’s possession and/or readily available/accessible to the Company) manuals, certificates of title, certificates of origin, bills of sale, machinery history documentation (including usage, maintenance and repair records), manufacturer and other warranties, and keys associated with or related to such Rolling Stock Assets, wherever located, including at the Company Properties; provided that, unless agreed in writing between the Agent and the Company, Agent shall not be responsible for the maintenance, removal, disposal, or other disposition of Assets (as defined in the Bidding Procedures Order) not constituting Rolling Stock Assets from the Company Properties. Assets that, if and to the extent known, contain unusually dangerous or environmentally hazardous substances shall not be considered Rolling Stock Assets even if they are listed on Exhibit A.

II.

The Company acknowledges that Agent, its members or its affiliated entities may be engaged to sell or market similar assets by other persons or entities during the Term, and that any such engagement shall not constitute or be deemed to be a violation of this Agreement. All inquiries regarding the Rolling Stock Assets made to the Company or its representatives shall be redirected to Agent, and Company shall, on or as soon as reasonably practicable following the Effective Date, share with Agent all indications of interest, offers and proposals to purchase or remarket and sell any of the Rolling Stock Assets.

(“Testimony Fees”), which Testimony Fees are not otherwise included in Agent’s compensation set forth herein, and Agent shall be reimbursed for reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses incurred in connection therewith; provided, however, Agent’s legal fees in connection with the foregoing (which shall be limited to those of one law firm) and Testimony Fees shall not be subject to the limitation on expenses in Section III.B.(i);

(xiii)

(xiv)

submit to the Company and its advisors (which shall provide the same, upon receipt, to the Consultation Parties and their advisors) (a) bi-weekly sales reports and (b) a final and complete sales report no later than fourteen (14) calendar days after the end of the Term.

B. Rolling Stock Services Fees.

(i)

In consideration of its performance of the Rolling Stock Services, the Rolling Stock Services Fee shall be a percentage of the Gross Proceeds collected and payable on sales of owned Rolling Stock Assets, in accordance with the table below:


Tier	Start	End	Fee
1	$0	$475,000,000	9.25%
2	$475,000,001	$600,000,000	10.0%
3	$600,000,001	$800,000,000	12.5%
4	$800,000,001	Above $800,000,001	15.5%

With respect to Rolling Stock Assets that are missing or are in unsalable condition only (as reasonably determined by Agent, “Unsaleable Assets”), the Gross Proceeds ranges shown above will be adjusted downward based on existing orderly liquidation values provided to and accepted by the Agent. Agent acknowledges it has reviewed and accepted such orderly liquidation values of the Rolling Stock Assets provided by the Company to Agent in the Company’s data room in advance of entering this Agreement. In the event adjustment(s) are required pursuant to this provision, each tier of Gross Proceeds shown above will be adjusted downward ratably based on the contribution of the Unsalable Assets to the total orderly liquidation values provided to and accepted by the Agent. The Gross Proceeds ranges shown above will be adjusted downward based on Strategic Bulk Sales.

Pursuant to Section III.C of this Agreement, Agent will work with Company to mutually agree upon budgeted amounts for Rolling Stock Services Expenses and Transportation Fees (each as defined herein). In the event that total budgeted amounts of Rolling Stock Services Expenses (excluding title transfer fees) and Transportation Fees exceeds $38.4 million, each of the Gross Proceeds ranges shown above will be adjusted upward by the dollar amount that the total budgeted amounts exceed $38.4 million. Further, in the event the Company incurs occupancy costs after the Removal Date solely on account of Rolling Stock Assets remaining on such properties, each of the Gross Proceeds ranges shown above will be adjusted upward by the dollar amount of such occupancy costs pursuant to Section III.A(vi); provided, however, if the Company (in consultation with the Consultation Parties) and Agent agree to extend the Removal Date (including by amendment to the Disposition Plan) in order to maximize the Gross Proceeds, then the Gross Proceeds ranges shown above will not be adjusted upwards unless additional costs are

incurred beyond such extended Removal Date; provided further that Agent acknowledges and agrees that the Removal Date (i.e., the date that is six (6) months from the date of entry of the Retention Order) shall not be extended except in the Company’s sole and exclusive discretion.

For the avoidance of doubt, the above ranges apply marginally, i.e., the next fee tier only applies to each dollar of Gross Proceeds in excess of the cutoff for the prior tier.

With respect to leased Rolling Stock Assets, the Rolling Stock Services Fee shall be 10% for any amount of Gross Proceeds therefrom.

(ii)

The Company has indicated that it will share with Agent a list of potential buyers who have each expressed an interest in purchasing a sub-set of the Rolling Stock Assets. Any lists provided must be from specific buyers on a specific list of the Rolling Stock Assets. Agent and the Company’s representatives (in consultation with the Consultation Parties, to the extent required under the Bidding Procedures Order) will assess these expressions of interest and mutually determine whether or not to negotiate and execute any such sales. In the event that binding transaction documentation for any such sales is executed within sixty (60) days of the entry of the Retention Order (such sales, “Strategic Bulk Sales”), which such transaction documentation shall set forth the purchase price for each Rolling Stock Asset and across categories of Rolling Stock Assets, Agent will reduce its commission rate to 5.0% for those applicable Rolling Stock Assets sold pursuant to Strategic Bulk Sales; provided, however, Agent shall be entitled to the full commission rate for any portion of the Gross Proceeds of such Strategic Bulk Sales for Rolling Stock Assets that were not initially included in the specific list provided by the Company and that are directly attributable to Agent’s services and efforts that resulted in increased Gross Proceeds generated on account of such increase in units sold or pricing. For the avoidance of doubt, any Strategic Bulk Sales at the reduced commission rate shall cause a downward adjustment of the Gross Proceeds tiers described in Section III.B(i) above based on existing orderly liquidation values provided to and accepted by the Agent.

C. Rolling Stock Services Expenses. Agent shall market and sell the Rolling Stock Assets in a commercially practical and prompt manner, including in various phases if commercially reasonable to do so, consistent with the Disposition Plan and this Agreement. Agent shall advance (up to the agreed Rolling Stock Services Expenses budget)⁵, and shall be entitled to reimbursement by the Company for all Rolling Stock Services Expenses on a cost basis, regardless of whether or not any Rolling Stock Assets are sold, and which expenses shall be recovered from the collected Gross Proceeds of the sale of Rolling Stock Assets only. “Rolling Stock Services Expenses” mean the Agent’s commercially reasonable and documented

⁵	The Parties will discuss and agree to the Rolling Stock Expenses budget as promptly as practicable following the Effective Date.

out-of-pocket expenses for repair and refurbishment costs to be incurred solely to maximize the Net Proceeds to the Company and title transfer fees equal to or less than (if applicable) $50.00 per title. Agent will not charge the Company for storage of any Rolling Stock Assets following their removal of such Rolling Stock Assets from the Company Properties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided herein, Agent shall not be obligated to advance payment of Rolling Stock Services Expenses or Transportation Fees in excess of the Rolling Stock Services Expenses budget or the Transportation Fees budget, respectively, and shall thereafter use commercially best efforts, unless agreed otherwise with the Company, to dispose of the remaining Rolling Stock Assets “AS IS” “WHERE IS” during the duration of the Term, with any additional costs incurred by the Company for occupancy adjusting the Gross Proceeds tiers upwards by such costs incurred following the Removal Date; provided that if the aggregate of Rolling Stock Services Expenses and Transportation Fees incurred exceed $38.4 million (not to be exceeded without Company’s prior written consent in consultation with the Consultation Parties), then the Gross Proceeds ranges in Section III.B.(i) above shall be adjusted upwards by such amount in excess of $38.4 million.

D. Transportation Fees. Agent shall advance (up to the agreed Transportation Fees budget)⁶ and shall be entitled to reimbursement of its expenses on a cost basis for (a) removing all Rolling Stock Assets from off the Company Properties’ premises consistent with the Disposition Plan and this Agreement and (b) transporting such Rolling Stock Assets to Agent Locations in a commercially practicable and economical manner (such fees and costs, the “Transportation Fees”). In addition to the Rolling Stock Services Fees, the Company shall be responsible for Transportation Fees, both of which shall be recovered from the collected Gross Proceeds derived from the sale of Rolling Stock Assets only. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided herein, Agent shall not be obligated to advance payment of Rolling Stock Services Expenses or Transportation Fees in excess of the Rolling Stock Services Expenses budget or the Transportation Fees budget, respectively, and shall thereafter use commercially best efforts, unless agreed otherwise with the Company, to dispose of the remaining Rolling Stock Assets “AS IS” “WHERE IS” during the duration of the Term, with any additional costs incurred by the Company for occupancy adjusting the Gross Proceeds tiers upwards by such costs incurred; provided that if the aggregate of Rolling Stock Services Expenses and Transportation Fees incurred exceed $38.4 million (not to be exceeded without Company’s prior written consent in consultation with the Consultation Parties), then the Gross Proceeds ranges in Section III.B.(i) above shall be adjusted upwards by such amount in excess of $38.4 million.

Agent shall provide the Company (which shall in turn provide to the Consultation Parties) an updated Rolling Stock Services Expenses budget and an updated Transportation Fees budget as promptly as practicable (and no event later than fourteen (14) days) following Agent’s incurrence of eighty (80) percent, or $30.7 million, of the abovementioned $38.4 million budget for Rolling Stock Services Expenses and Transportation Fees.

E. Transaction Fee. Agent is authorized to charge purchasers a transaction fee (the “Transaction Fee”). With respect to Rolling Stock Assets sold at a public auction run by Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers (America) Inc. or its affiliates, any Transaction Fee collected shall not exceed the following: (a) 10% on all lots selling for USD 12,000 or less, with a minimum fee of

⁶	The Parties will discuss and agree to the Transportation Fees budget as promptly as practicable following the Effective Date.

USD 100 per lot,⁷ (b) 4.85% on all lots selling for over USD 12,000 up to USD 75,000, with a minimum fee of USD 1,200 per lot or, (c) USD 3,638 on all lots selling for over USD 75,000. For the avoidance of doubt, any Rolling Stock Assets sold through a private treaty or other mutually agreeable sales platforms that are not sold via public unreserved auction shall not be subject to the Transaction Fee. The Transaction Fee shall not be considered Gross Proceeds for the purpose of calculating the Rolling Stock Services Fees hereunder. Agent agrees that fifty (50) percent of each Transaction Fee shall be credited against the Rolling Stock Service Fee earned and owing to Agent in connection with the applicable sale.

IV.

Termination for Cause

Company may terminate this Agreement at any time for cause (including Agent’s fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct or abdication of responsibility in fulfilling the Agreement), but not as a result of the aggregate of Rolling Stock Services Expenses and Transportation Fees exceeding $38.4 million with the Company’s prior written consent in consultation with the Consultation Parties. In the event of a termination for cause, no fees shall be paid to Agent other than any undisputed fees already earned and payable (including any related reimbursable expenses).

Each Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon not less than thirty (30) days’ written notice in the event that a Force Majeure Event occurs and is continuing for a period in excess of three (3) consecutive months and materially interferes with or delays either Party’s ability to perform under this Agreement or materially increases the cost of the Rolling Stock Services or transportation services. “Force Majeure Event” means any act, event, circumstance or condition that (i) is beyond the commercially reasonable control of and unforeseeable by, or which, if foreseeable, could not be avoided in whole or in material part by the exercise of due diligence by, either the Company or Agent who is relying on such act, event, circumstance or condition as justification for not performing an obligation under this Agreement and (ii) materially interferes with, or materially increases the cost of, performing such Party’s obligations under this Agreement, to the extent that such act, event, circumstance or condition is not the result of the willful or negligent act, error or omission or breach of this Agreement by such Party.

EACH PARTY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT EITHER MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY PROCEEDING BROUGHT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.

V.	Company Undertakings

A. In connection with the Rolling Stock Services to be provided by Agent hereunder, the Company shall and hereby grants to Agent the following rights and authority:

(i)

(iii)

The Company shall endeavor to cause all liens and encumbrances, including adverse possession of any Rolling Stock Asset, to be removed from title to the Rolling Stock Assets (effective upon the sale thereof) pursuant to the Retention Order. Any Rolling Stock Asset that cannot be sold free and clear of liens and encumbrances following entry of the Retention Order shall not constitute Rolling Stock Assets under this Agreement.

(iv)

The Company will permit Agent and its employees and consultants (in each case commercially licensed, qualified, and experienced in such operations) to operate the Rolling Stock Assets and other equipment, garages, and on-site filling stations necessary or appropriate to arrange the Rolling Stock Assets for sale, including, as applicable, removal from the Company Properties and transportation to the agreed Agent Properties. Nothing herein or in the course of conduct under this Agreement shall be or shall be deemed to be Agent’s control or operation of Company’s business or Company Properties.

(v)

The Company hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Agent with reasonable access to the Company’s books and records related to the Rolling Stock Services, including service and maintenance logs and records, and all related systems, to assist Agent with efficiently and effectively performing the Rolling Stock Services.

Company shall provide Agent with the contact information of Company personnel with whom to coordinate Agent’s access to the Company Properties. Specifically, Agent shall have the right to enter and use the Company Properties during the Term (through the Removal Date unless extended by the Company in consultation with the Consultation Parties) solely for the purposes of performing its obligations under this Agreement, including (without limitation) taking photographs and preparing the marketing materials for the Rolling Stock Assets, removing, transporting or arranging the Rolling Stock Assets for marketing and sale, conducting virtual or live auctions, allowing potential buyers access for inspections of the Rolling Stock Assets prior to sale and selling

and overseeing and administering all aspects of the removal and transportation of the Rolling Stock Assets pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

The Company agrees to maintain and bear the cost of any existing security personnel on the Company Properties during the term of this Agreement (or for so long as the Company has any rights to any such Company Property).

Agent shall have the right, in consultation with the Company (in consultation with the Consultation Parties), to abandon (prior to removal) any Rolling Stock Asset that Agent deems unsalable in its commercially reasonable discretion. Following removal of any Rolling Stock Assets from the Company Properties, Agent shall have the right, in consultation with the Company (in consultation with the Consultation Parties), to abandon any Rolling Stock Asset at Agent’s sole cost and expense. In the event that the Company incurs rent or other occupancy costs solely on account of Rolling Stock Assets remaining at Company Properties after the Removal Date, the Gross Proceeds ranges applicable to the Rolling Stock Services Fee pursuant to Section B(i) shall be adjusted upward by the dollar amount of occupancy costs incurred by the Company.

(vii)

The parties hereto agree, and the Company hereby expressly acknowledges, that Agent shall not be responsible for the removal or disposition of any environmentally hazardous chemicals, pollutants, waste, solvents or substances howsoever occurring, except for spillage or contamination as is negligently caused or created by Agent or third parties acting at the direction, or on behalf of, Agent, found at the Company Properties or in the Rolling Stock Assets or obtaining or maintaining any Environmental Permits.⁸ The Company shall be responsible for ensuring that the Company possesses and is in compliance with all Environmental Permits that are required for the operation of the Company’s business. As used in this Agreement, “Environmental Laws” means all domestic, federal, provincial, state and local statutes, regulations, ordinances, rules, regulations and policies, all court orders and decrees and arbitration awards, and the common law, which pertain to environmental matters or contamination of any type

⁸	Oil, fuel, diesel, batteries, antifreeze, brake fluid and other chemicals or products normally contained in or relating to the Rolling Stock Assets at the Company Properties shall not be considered “unusually dangerous” or “environmentally hazardous” for purposes of this Agreement.

whatsoever; and “Environmental Permits” means licenses, permits, registrations, governmental approvals, agreements and consents which are required under or are issued pursuant to Environmental Laws. The Company hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and hold Agent harmless from any and all claims, losses, damages and liabilities of any kind whatsoever which arise from or are in connection with any hazardous chemicals, pollutants, waste, solvents, or substances howsoever occurring found at the Company Properties or in the Rolling Stock Assets, Environmental Laws or Environmental Permits; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing indemnification shall not apply in the case of negligence by Agent or any person or entity acting at the direction, or on behalf of, Agent. Any Rolling Stock Asset that, if and to the extent known, contains any unusually dangerous or environmentally hazardous chemicals, pollutants, waste, solvents, or substances shall be deemed an Unsalable Asset. Company shall promptly, if and to the extent known, identify for Agent any Rolling Stock Asset containing such unusually dangerous or environmentally hazardous chemicals, pollutants, waste, solvents, or substances.

(viii)

With respect to the sale of any Rolling Stock Assets located in the United States, the Company acknowledges that with respect to any export transaction involving any of the Rolling Stock Assets sold hereunder, and unless the Company and the applicable purchaser agree otherwise, Yellow Corporation shall be the United States principal party in interest.

H. The Company recognizes and acknowledges that the services to be provided by Agent pursuant to this Agreement are, in general, transactional in nature, and Agent will not be billing the Company by the hour nor maintaining time records unless required pursuant to Bankruptcy Court order.

Miscellaneous

This Agreement may not be transferred or assigned without the express written consent of the other Parties (the Company, in each case, in consultation with the Consultation Parties), provided that Agent shall be permitted to engage or retain, and utilize, contractors and subcontractors to assist in the performance of the Rolling Stock Services. This Agreement does not create, and shall not be construed as creating, any rights enforceable by any person not a Party to this Agreement, subject to the rights of the Consultation Parties under this Agreement.

If any part or subpart of this agreement is found or held to be invalid, that invalidity shall not affect the enforceability and binding nature of any other part of this Agreement. No Party shall be considered in default hereunder to the extent that performance by such Party is prevented or delayed by any unforeseeable cause, existing or future, which is beyond the commercially reasonable control of such Party. The Parties do hereby agree that this Agreement and related documents be drawn up in the English language only.

The Company hereby appoints Agent as its attorney-in-fact with a limited power of attorney (“LPOA”) to execute on the Company’s behalf, all documents necessary and required to transfer title to, and permit registration of ownership of, any portion of the Rolling Stock Assets to any buyer; provided, however, if original titles or a notarized LPOA are required by federal, state, provincial or local regulation to transfer title, the Company will provide Agent with either, as applicable, (i) signed original titles, or (ii) a notarized LPOA and unsigned original titles at least two weeks prior to any auction or private treaty disposition of any of the Rolling Stock Assets. Failure to provide title(s) and/or an LPOA as required may prevent the Rolling Stock Assets being made available for sale until such documentation is provided.
