(e) Right of First Refusal. ---------------------- (i) At any time that Newco and the subsequent Holders collectively own 8% or more of the total outstanding Voting Securities, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, during the Standstill Period, neither Newco or any subsequent Holder (a "Selling Holder") shall effect any Disposition (other than to a Permitted Transferee) of more than 1,000,000 Shares in the aggregate in any twelve month period without first making an offer in writing in accordance with this Section 6(e) to sell such Shares to the Company at the Offer Price or the Market Price, as applicable, and upon such other bona fide terms and conditions upon which the Selling Holder proposes to make such Disposition (the "Offer"). Upon receipt of such Offer (which shall also set forth the proposed method of payment, the amount and class of Shares to be sold, the identity (if known) of the Person to whom the Selling Holder proposes to effect the Disposition of such Shares, the other material terms (to the extent known) upon which such Disposition is to be made and all other relevant information reasonably requested by the Company), the Company shall have 10 days to accept such Offer by delivering a written notice to the Selling Holder irrevocably electing to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Shares covered thereby; provided, however, that if the proposed Disposition is to be made pursuant to a tender or exchange offer made pursuant to Section 14(d) of the Exchange Act which is recommended to the stockholders of the Company by the Board of Directors or with respect to which the Company remains neutral and has taken action to redeem the Rights Plan in accordance with Rule 14e-2 of the Exchange Act, any successor regulation or otherwise, the Company shall have one day less than the number of days remaining before such tender or exchange offer, as it may be amended, expires to accept such Offer and notify the Selling Holder of the number of Shares the Company is electing to purchase. If the Company elects to accept such Offer, the closing of the purchase pursuant thereto shall occur, with payment in immediately available funds, on the latest of (i) 5 days after the acceptance by the Company of such Offer, (ii) the closing date provided for in the Offer or (iii) the end of such period of time as the Company and the Selling Holder may reasonably require in order to comply with applicable laws and regulations. Transfers pursuant to Section 6(a), 6(b)(i), 6(b)(ii) and 6(b)(iv) hereof are not subject to the provisions of this Section 6(e). (ii) If the Offer specifies that the Shares are to be sold in the market in a method whereby the price cannot be determined at the time of the making of the Offer (a "Market Sale"), the purchase price for the Shares proposed to be sold shall be equal to the greater of (i) the negotiated price, if any, between the Company and the Selling Holder and (ii) the Market Price of such Shares on the date of such Offer. Market Sales shall be deemed to be for cash. 13
EX-314th Page of 27TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 14th
(iii) If the purchase price specified in the Offer includes any property other than cash, such purchase price shall be deemed to be the amount of any cash included in the purchase price plus the value (determined as provided below) of such other property included in such price. The value of any non-cash property shall be determined in the following manner: A. The value of securities which are publicly traded shall be deemed to be the Market Price of such securities on the date of the Offer; and B. The value of any other property shall be determined by an appropriate expert mutually selected by the Company and the Selling Holder. The determination of the dollar value of the non-cash consideration at issue by any such expert shall be made promptly (but in no event more than 15 business days after receipt of the Offer) and shall be conclusive and binding on all the parties hereto. (iv) The Disposition to any Third Party of such Voting Securities shall not be made until such determination referred to in Section 6(e)(iii)(B) has been completed and delivered to all the parties hereto. The Company shall have the later of (i) five business days after the receipt of such determination by the expert referred to in Section 6(e)(iii)(B) and (ii) the applicable time period set forth in Section 6(e)(i) within which to accept such Offer. (v) If the Company has not exercised its option to purchase the Shares pursuant to the Offer, the Selling Holder shall be free, for a period of 60 days (or, if longer, 60 days from the effective date of a registration statement under the Securities Act, if such registration is required) from the date of the Company's rejection of the Offer (which, unless the Company shall have given written notice of its rejection of the Offer, shall be deemed to have occurred on the last day on which the Company could accept the Offer in accordance herewith), to sell all of the Shares proposed to be sold to the third party transferee, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, at a price equal to or greater than the price specified in the Offer and in the manner and on terms no less favorable to the Selling Holder than were specified in the Offer. If the Shares are not sold within such 60-day period, they shall again become subject to the procedures provided in this Section 6. If the Shares are sold pursuant to the Offer, then the Selling Holder shall give the Company written notice promptly upon such Disposition by the Selling Holder. (f) Notice of Disposition. To the extent that a Disposition of Shares --------------------- hereunder was not subject to Section 6(e) above, Newco or the subsequent Holder, as the case may be, shall give the Company prompt written notice after such Disposition by such Person and shall describe in reasonable detail in such notice the provisions of this Section 6 pursuant to which such Disposition was effected and the detail relating to the sale (including the amount and class of Shares to be sold, the identity (if known) of the Person to whom such Person effected the Disposition of such Shares, the other material terms (to the extent known) upon which such Disposition was made and all other relevant information reasonably requested by the Company). 14

A COPY OF SUCH AGREEMENT IS ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF TRINITY INDUSTRIES, INC. (b) Removal of Legends.

(b) Election of Designee. Subject to applicable law, during the -------------------- Standstill Period, the Company shall use its reasonable efforts to cause the election of the Designee to the Board of Directors at the next meeting of the Company's stockholders at which directors are to be elected, and the Company shall use its reasonable efforts to cause the reelection of the Designee to the Board of Directors at each meeting of stockholders of the Company at which the Designee's term as a director for election will expire.

Section 9. Newco Responsible for Family Affiliates and Permitted Transferees.
