In the event of any breach of a representation and warranty made by the Purchaser hereunder, the Seller covenants and agrees that the Seller will not take any action to pursue any remedy that it may have hereunder, in law, in equity or otherwise, until a year and a day have passed since all Outstanding Obligations under all other Operative Agreements have been paid in full. The Seller and the Purchaser agree that damages will not be an adequate remedy for a breach of this covenant and that this covenant may be specifically enforced by the Purchaser or any third party beneficiary described in Section 6.8.

			13

[Purchase and Sale Agreement]

(b)The Seller (or TRIP Holdings on its behalf) will defend and indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person against any and all costs, expenses, losses, obligations, penalties, liabilities, damages, actions, or suits or claims of whatsoever kind or nature (whether or not on the basis of negligence, strict or absolute liability or liability in tort), that may be imposed upon, incurred by, suffered by or asserted against such Indemnified Person, other than Excluded Amounts, arising out of or resulting from any action taken by the Seller, other than in accordance with this Agreement or the Master Indenture or other applicable Operative Agreement, in respect of any portion of the Railcars, related Leases and Related Assets that are Conveyed hereunder.

(c)The Seller (or TRIP Holdings on its behalf) agrees to pay, and shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person (excluding, for purposes of this clause (c), the Noteholders with respect to taxes imposed on them) from and against, any taxes (other than taxes based upon the income of an Indemnified Person and taxes that would constitute Excluded Amounts) that may at any time be asserted against any Indemnified Person with respect to the transactions contemplated in this Agreement, including, without limitation, any sales, gross receipts, general corporation, tangible or intangible personal property, privilege, or license taxes and costs and expenses in defending against the same, arising by reason of the acts to be performed by the Seller under this Agreement and imposed against such Person. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that the Purchaser, the Servicer or the Indenture Trustee receives actual notice of any transfer taxes arising out of the Conveyance of any Railcar or Lease from the Seller to the Purchaser under this Agreement, on written demand by such party, or upon the Seller otherwise being given notice thereof, the Seller (or TRIP Holdings on its behalf), shall pay, and otherwise indemnify and hold harmless the applicable Indemnified Person, the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee harmless, on an After-Tax Basis, from and against any and all such transfer taxes (it being understood that none of the Purchaser, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee or any other Indemnified Person shall have any contractual obligation to pay such transfer taxes).

(d)The Seller (or TRIP Holdings on its behalf) shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any and all costs, expenses, losses, obligations, penalties, liabilities, damages, actions, or suits or claims of whatsoever kind or nature (whether or not on the basis of negligence, strict or absolute liability or liability in tort), to the extent that any of the foregoing may be imposed upon, incurred by, suffered by or asserted against such Indemnified Person (other than Excluded Amounts) due to the negligence, willful misfeasance, or bad faith of the Seller in the performance of its duties under this Agreement or by reason of reckless disregard of the Seller’s obligations and duties under this Agreement.

Indemnification under this Section 4.5 shall include reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and expenses of litigation. The indemnity obligations hereunder shall be in addition to any obligation that the Seller may otherwise have under applicable law or any other Operative Agreement.

From time to time thereafter, the Seller shall authorize and file such financing statements or cause to be authorized and filed such continuation statements, all in such manner and in such places as may be required by law (or deemed desirable by the Purchaser or any assignee thereof) to fully perfect, preserve, maintain and protect the interest of the Purchaser under this Agreement, and the security interest of the Indenture Trustee under the Master Indenture, in the Railcars, related Leases and Related Assets that are Conveyed hereunder and in the proceeds thereof. The Seller shall deliver (or cause to be


			15

[Purchase and Sale Agreement]

delivered) to the Purchaser and the Indenture Trustee file-stamped copies of, or filing receipts for, any document filed as provided above, following such filing in accordance herewith. In the event that the Seller fails to perform its obligations under this subsection, the Purchaser or the Indenture Trustee may perform such obligations, at the expense of the Seller or TRIP Holdings and each of the Seller or TRIP Holdings hereby authorizes the Purchaser or the Indenture Trustee and grants to the Purchaser and the Indenture Trustee an irrevocable power of attorney to take any and all steps in order to perform such obligations in the Seller’s or in its own name, as applicable, and on behalf of the Seller as are necessary or desirable, in the determination of the Purchaser or Indenture Trustee or any assignee thereof, with respect to performing such obligations.

(b)On or prior to the Closing Date and any other applicable Delivery Date hereunder, the Seller shall take all steps necessary under all applicable law in order to transfer and assign to the Purchaser the Railcars and Leases being Conveyed on such date to the Purchaser so that, upon the Conveyance of such Railcar or Lease from the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to the terms hereof on the applicable Delivery Date, the Purchaser will have acquired good and marketable title to and a valid and perfected ownership interest in such Railcars and Leases, free and clear of any Encumbrance (other than Permitted Encumbrances). On or prior to the applicable Delivery Date hereunder, the Seller shall cooperate with the Purchaser in order to take all steps required under applicable law in order for the Purchaser to grant to the Indenture Trustee a first priority perfected security interest in the Railcars and Leases being Conveyed to the Purchaser on such Delivery Date and, from time to time thereafter, the Seller shall cooperate with the Purchaser in order to take all such actions as may be required by applicable law (or deemed desirable by the Purchaser) to fully preserve, maintain and protect the Purchaser’s ownership interest in, and the Indenture Trustee’s first priority perfected security interest in the Railcars and Leases which have been Conveyed to the Purchaser hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Seller shall not be required pursuant to this Agreement to make any filings, registrations or recordations in Mexico or under any Provincial Personal Property Security Act or other non-federal legislation in Canada.

(c)The Seller shall not change its name, identity, jurisdiction of organization or corporate structure in any manner that would or could make any financing statement or continuation statement filed by Purchaser in accordance with this Agreement seriously misleading within the meaning of §9-506 of the UCC (or any similar provision of the UCC), unless the Seller shall have given the Purchaser, the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee at least 30 days’ prior written notice thereof, and shall promptly file and hereby authorizes the Purchaser or the Indenture Trustee to file appropriate new financing statements or amendments to all previously filed financing statements and continuation statements.

(d)The Seller shall give the Purchaser, the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee at least 30 days’ prior written notice of any relocation of its jurisdiction of organization if, as a result of such relocation, the applicable provisions of the UCC would require the filing of any amendment of any previously filed financing or continuation statement or of any new financing statement. The Seller shall at all times maintain its jurisdiction of organization, each office from which it manages or purchases Railcars and Leases and its principal executive office within the United States of America.

Section 5.2Other Liens or Interests. Except for the Conveyances hereunder, the Seller will not sell, pledge, assign, transfer or otherwise convey to any other Person, or grant, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Encumbrance on the Railcars and Leases Conveyed hereunder or any interest therein (other than Permitted Encumbrances), and the


			16

[Purchase and Sale Agreement]

Seller (or TRIP Holdings on its behalf), shall defend the right, title, and interest of the Purchaser and the Indenture Trustee in and to such Railcars and Leases against all Encumbrances or claims of Encumbrances of third parties claiming through or under the Seller. To the extent that any Railcar or Lease shall at any time secure any debt of the related Lessee to the Seller or any of its affiliates, the Seller agrees that any security interest in its favor arising from such a provision shall be subordinate to the interest of the Purchaser (and its further assignees) in such Railcars and Leases.
