development of the Project in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
1. Railroad, or its representatives (hereinafter "Railroad Group"), at Agency's sole
cost and expense, agrees to perform (or shall cause a third -party consultant [hereinafter "Third
Party"] to perform on Railroad Group's behalf) the preliminary engineering services work
described on Exhibit B attached hereto (the "PE Work"). Agency acknowledges and agrees that:
(a) Railroad Group's review of any Project designs, plans and/or specifications, as part of the PE
Work, is limited exclusively to potential impacts on existing and future Railroad facilities and
operations; (b) Railroad Group makes no representations or warranties as to the validity,
accuracy, legal compliance or completeness of the PE Work; and (c) Agency's reliance on the PE
Work is at Agency's own risk.
2. The estimated cost of the PE Work is Fifteen Thousand Dollars & 00/100

Railroad Group for one hundred percent (100%) of all actual costs and expenses incurred for the
PE Work, including costs and expenses in excess of the Estimate ("the "Excess Cost"), if any,
unless such Excess Costs are due to the cause of Railroad Group. Excess Costs which cause
the Agency's total expenditure for PE Work to exceed the Estimate will require additional Agency
authorization before payment can be made. During the performance of the PE Work, Railroad
Group will provide progressive billing to Agency based on actual costs in connection with the PE
Work. Within sixty (60) days after completion of the PE Work, Railroad Group will submit a final
billing to Agency for any balance owed for the PE Work. Agency shall pay Railroad Group within
thirty (30) days after Agency's receipt of any progressive and final bills submitted for the PE Work.
Bills will be submitted to Agency using the contact information provided on Exhibit C. Agency's
obligation hereunder to reimburse Railroad Group for the PE Work shall apply regardless if
Agency declines to proceed with the Project or Railroad elects not to approve the Project.
