What is a Trailer Interchange Agreement?

A trailer interchange agreement, also known as a container interchange agreement, is a legally binding agreement that covers many aspects of transportation of goods between one party to another. This agreement may define the amount of time a trip will take, the containers it may be transported in, and the responsibilities expected by both the party transporting the goods and the party receiving the goods.

The trailer interchange agreement may also outline transportation maintenance expectations, what parties will do in the event of a dispute, and the compensation structure between those in the agreement.

Container Interchange Agreement				Page 4 of 11

DELIVERY

a.	Delivery and Redelivery Locations, and the number of free-days, shall be as set forth in Exhibit A, which is attached hereto and made a part of this Agreement.

b.	A Container shall be deemed interchanged effective on the date that it exits Owner’s terminal or depot for a User booking or for empty positioning on behalf of User. The TIR issued by Owner’s terminal or depot upon exit therefrom shall be considered proof of interchange to User.

c.	User is not obliged to accept Containers that are not in accordance with the specification as per 4.b. of this Agreement.

7.	REDELIVERY

User shall redeliver the Container at Owner’s terminal or depot at redelivery locations set forth in Exhibit A, or to any other location agreed upon in writing by Owner. The TIR issued by the terminal or depot in this respect shall be considered proof of redelivery of Container to Owner. User must declare in writing to Owner its intent to redeliver Container to Owner; failure to so declare in writing shall mean that the redelivery of the particular Container was not properly executed, unless User can provide evidence satisfactory to Owner.

b.	Redelivery of a Container at any location other than one set forth in Exhibit A or one agreed upon by Owner in writing, is subject to a redelivery surcharge of *** for such Container, regardless of whether the terminal or depot operator fails to reject redelivery of such Container.

8.	COMPENSATION

Owner is entitled to receive compensation for utilization of the Container on a per diem basis, as set forth in Exhibit C, from the day of delivery to User until the day of physical redelivery, except in the event User declares a Container a total loss. In such event, Owner is entitled to receive compensation for utilization of the Container on a per diem basis, as set forth in Exhibit C, from the day of delivery to User until the day the Container is declared a total loss.

***	Portions hereof have been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to a request for confidential treatment in accordance with Rule 406 of the Securities Act.


Container Interchange Agreement				Page 5 of 11

b.	User shall be granted a number of free-days as specified in Exhibit A, for which no per diem shall be assessed. Containers redelivered to unauthorized locations as per 7.b. of this Agreement shall not be entitled to any free-days. [k]

c.	Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the per diem rates as specified in Exhibit C, which is attached hereto and made a part of this agreement, shall apply.

User is liable for the total loss of the Container if it is destroyed, lost, or stolen during the time period between delivery to User and physical redelivery; and User is liable for the total loss of the Container if the estimated repair costs calculated under this Agreement exceed the depreciated value of the Container. The burden is on User to notify Owner of such an eventuality as is the practice with commercially leased containers.

Total loss value for owned Containers are calculated by depreciating the replacement value specified in Exhibit C in a straight line down to 30 per cent over a 10.5 year period. For Containers owned by leasing companies or other entities their depreciated value as invoiced to Owner shall be paid by User.

f.	In case of total loss, the title to the Container shall be transferred to the User.

9.	INVOICING AND PAYMENT

a.	Invoices for per diem charges are raised monthly for every calendar month. Payment shall be due within 30 days after receipt of invoice by User.

b.	Invoices for compensation for total loss and repair cost shall be settled on an individual basis. Payment is due within 30 days after receipt of invoice by User.

c.	Unless otherwise agreed in writing, invoices shall be raised and paid in US Dollars.

d.	Invoices are to be sent to User’s corporate address as listed in Exhibit B, which is attached hereto and made a part of this Agreement. If the Owner is Maersk, Maersk may submit its invoices to User by directing such invoice to CSXL at the corporate address listed in Exhibit B.

10.	RECOVERY/CLAIMS

a.	Owner has no obligation to, or liability for, making or obtaining recovery from third parties, which recovery is the obligation and responsibility of User.

b.	Owner has no liability for cargo damage while Containers are under User’s control, as between Owner and User it is User’s responsibility to ensure that containers are in safe and cargo-worthy condition before packing with cargo.

11.	MISCELLANEOUS

Container Interchange Agreement		Page 8 of 11

Arbitration, (i) In the ordinary course of business, the Parties shall attempt to resolve any arbitrable dispute by meetings between or among executive officers who have authority to settle the controversy and who are at a level of management higher than the persons with direct responsibility for administration or performance of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Party may give to the others written notice of any Arbitrable Dispute at any time. Within 20 business days after delivery of such notice (the “Discussions Notice”), the receiving Parties shall submit to the noticing Party a written response. The Discussions Notice and the response shall include (a) a statement of the Party’s position and a summary of arguments supporting that position, and (b) the expected name and title of the executive officer(s) who will represent that Party and of any other person who will accompany the executive officer(s). Within 10 business days after delivery of the claimant’s notice, executive officers of the Parties and any advisors a Party deems necessary shall meet at a mutually acceptable time and place, and thereafter as often as they reasonably deem necessary for up to 30 business days to attempt to resolve the Arbitrable Dispute. All reasonable requests for information made by any Party to any other Party in connection with the foregoing will be honoured.

(ii) Subject to Section 1l.f (i) above but in any event at any time following 60 days after delivery of a Discussion Notice, if there is any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the breach thereof, then any Party to such dispute, controversy or claim (an “Arbitrable Dispute”) may elect by written notice (the “Arbitration Notice”) to the other Party(ies) to such Arbitrable Dispute to have the Arbitrable Dispute subjected to arbitration as provided in this Section 1l.f (ii) (the “Arbitration”). This Section 1l.f (ii) provides the exclusive method of resolving any such disputes, controversies or claims. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Section 1l.f (ii) or in any other provision of this Agreement shall preclude any Party to such Arbitrable Dispute from (a) commencing and maintaining a proceeding prior to the completion of the Arbitration if necessary to prevent the expiration of any statute of limitations, provided that the commencing Party shall endeavour to have such proceeding stayed pending the completion of the Arbitration, or (b) commencing and maintaining a proceeding prior to completion of the Arbitration seeking injunctive relief against the violation or breach of any provision herein which expressly provides for injunctive relief outside of arbitration. The Arbitration shall be held in the Borough of Manhattan, New York under the Expedited Procedures of the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect and shall be in the English language. The arbitration panel shall consist of three arbitrators appointed in accordance with such rules. The facts and circumstances of


Container Interchange Agreement		Page 9 of 11

the Arbitrable Dispute and all other relevant matters shall be presented through the submission of written briefs and other information to the arbitration panel within 60 days after the effective date of the Arbitration Notice. Any Party to the Arbitrable Dispute shall be entitled to one hearing in connection with the Arbitration. Any further hearings may be ordered by the arbitrators. The arbitrators shall consider the Arbitrable Dispute and issue a written decision setting forth resolution of the Arbitrable Dispute and the reasons underlying said decision. The arbitrators shall be empowered to issue one or more interim decisions prior to the full hearing of the case. Such interim decision shall be enforceable in the same manner as the final decision, as set forth herein. The Arbitration shall be completed within six months after its commencement. The fees and expenses of the arbitrators and the other costs of the Arbitration (exclusive of attorney’s fees, which shall be borne by the Party incurring them) shall be borne in the manner determined by the arbitrators.

(iii) The decision of the arbitrators shall be final and binding upon each Party and judgment thereon may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.

Consent to Jurisdiction and Service of Process. For purposes of enforcing any arbitration award, and for any other proper purpose arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including enjoining proceedings commenced in violation of Section 11.f(ii), each Party hereto accepts for itself and in connection with its properties, generally and unconditionally, the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state courts sitting in New York and waives any defence of forum non conveniens, and irrevocably agrees to be bound by any judgement rendered thereby in connection with this Agreement. Each Party hereto further irrevocably consents to the service of process out of any of afore-mentioned courts in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to such Party at the address specified in this Agreement, such service to become effective 15 days after such mailing. Nothing herein shall in any way be deemed to limit the ability of any Party hereto to serve any such legal process, summons, notices and documents in any other manner permitted by applicable law.

h.	Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same agreement, and all signatures need not appear on any one counterpart.

Orlando, Florida

14 Yrs Experience

Licensed in FL

Florida A&M University College of Law

Erik J. Washington completed his undergraduate studies at Florida A&M University, where he earned his Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration with a concentration in Finance. Mr. Washington went on to earn his Juris Doctor from Florida A&M University College of Law. Upon receiving his J.D., Mr. Washington was admitted to The Florida Bar and the United States District Court, Middle District of Florida. Mr. Washington started his legal career by working with a boutique Orlando law firm where his practice concentrated on family law, bankruptcy, helping clients with estate planning and probate matters, and advising homeowner’s association boards on proper administration. After that experience Mr. Washington later joined another mid-size Orlando law firm where he would eventually become the Managing Consumer Bankruptcy Attorney where he oversaw the filing and administration of hundreds of chapter 7 and chapter 13 cases. Prior to starting the Washington Law Firm, Mr. Washington was an associate at a Central Florida Bankruptcy law firm working under the tutu ledge of a highly respected bankruptcy attorney with over 20 years of bankruptcy experience. Mr. Washington has learned that bankruptcy is a tool designed that not only benefits a person in debt but is also good for the economy as a whole. It is because this new beginning and fresh start that it becomes a means of not only helping a person in debt, but it gives that person once in debt the chance to reestablish good credit and yet again borrow money to spend. Mr. Washington focuses on consumer bankruptcy, real estate, probate, and auto accidents.
