Magne. Rail Zero Emissions Demonstration Multi-Projects Overview October 2010 Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach Alameda Corridor Inland Empire San Pedro Trolley LA Streetcar LA Metro 1 Innovative Transportation Systems Corp. An affiliate of Shapery Enterprises Cajon Pass CA High Speed Rail
Background - Where We Are, How We Got Here • 2006 – Port of LA commissioned Mag. Lev Study to General Atomics. • 2006 – Ports LA/LB hired URS to evaluate various Mag. Lev technologies. GA received highest score. • 2007 – Ports of LA/LB created Clean Air Action Plan (CAAP). • 2009 – ITSC teams with GA. Ports issued RFCS for Zero Emissions Container Moving System (ZECMS). • 2009 (Fall) – ITSC and team responded to Ports’ RFCS for a ZECMS with Magne. Rail Technology. • 2010 (Spring) – ITSC enters discussion with San Pedro Red Line Trolley for extending existing line from waterfront into San Pedro downtown and nearby shopping center using Magne. Rail. • 2010 (Summer) – Ports finish RFCS evaluation. • Even though mature, ZECMS technologies not yet proven in marine operations environment. • Evaluation team recommended for Ports to support demonstration from willing respondents. • Also, during RFCS process the Ports’ staff realize different approach for ZECMS. They now see electric trucks draying containers to and from terminals and intermodal rail yards. • Because of CARB’s Tier 4 in coming years, Port now looking at ZECMS for moving trains within port and through Los Angeles basin to Inland Empire. 2 Innovative Transportation Systems Corp.

Where We Are, How We Got Here (Continued) • 2010 (Fall) – ITSC in discussions with Port staff to identify demonstration site at POLA and assistance with demonstration funding (either as sponsor and/or other role including monetary). • 2010 (Fall) – ITSC enters into discussions with Los Angeles GO LA Streetcar organization about using Magne. Rail for their downtown LA street car system. • 2010 (Fall) – ITSC enters into discussions with Siemens to become member of ITSC team, to design and manufacture rail vehicles (freight or passenger) to work on the LSM Magne. Rail system. • October 21, 2010 (today) – Meeting to update CEC, show ITSC’s progress and commitment, and learn how CEC can support a funding plan for a Magne. Rail demonstration at POLA. 3 Innovative Transportation Systems Corp. An affiliate of Shapery Enterprises
Magne. Rail Demonstration Objectives • Long-Term Problem to be Solved – Eliminate diesel train emissions from on and near port operations using existing rail network. – Improve Ports’ rail efficiency resulting in reduction of truck drays to ICTF. – Provide ability for future expansion to inland empire. • Technical Approach – Retrofit existing rails with linear electric propulsion motors (“Magne. Rail”). • Implementation Approach – Build and test full-scale system to demonstrate all-electric train movement under port and railroad operating conditions. • Expected Results – Validation of all-electric train movement and efficiency; significant improvement in Los Angeles basin air quality and noise reduction. 4 Innovative Transportation Systems Corp.

Technical Approach • Mount and connect LSM modules (~20 ft. ) between existing rails. • Retrofit a “green goat” type locomotive (or railcar) with magnet arrays underneath creating a Magne. Rail mover car. Can operate automated or manual mode. • Provides all-electric propulsion to rolling stock. 5 Innovative Transportation Systems Corp. An affiliate of Shapery Enterprises
Implementation Approach Demonstrate moving a railcar consisting of 5 double-stacked 40 -ft. containers using all -electric LSM modules on existing rail. One standard articulated rail car = 5 permanently attached double stack container rail cars. Up to 2, 000 ft. in length with one Magne. Rail car to provide propulsion Performance to match existing diesel locomotives Includes rail switch and curve 6 Innovative Transportation Systems Corp. An affiliate of Shapery Enterprises
Phased Magne. Rail Demonstration Phase 1 A Phase 1 B Phase 1 C Objective Test power and control of LSM to move a Magne. Rail mover car coupled to an articulated rail car (5 cars and 10 containers) on ~2, 000 ft. of existing rail tracks Upon successfully completing Phase 1 A, test switching capability of system Upon successfully completing Phase 1 B, test bringing rail up to peak operating speed and back down Infrastructure Requirements ~2, 000 ft. of existing rail tracks Additional 500 ft. of rail track and switch Additional contiguous 3, 000 ft. of existing rail tracks Milestones/ Goals Move Magne. Rail car coupled to fully loaded articulated rail car (10 full containers 708, 000 lbs). Demonstrate forward and reverse operation. Move full block of rail cars in Phase 1 A over a switch connected to an adjacent rail track. Move full block of rail cars in Phase 1 A up to a speed of ~ 40 mph and back down to a stop. ROM Cost & Schedule $26 M 2. 5 years Additional $6 M and 6 months Additional $8 M and 6 months 7 Innovative Transportation Systems Corp. An affiliate of Shapery Enterprises
A Magne. Rail Demonstration at POLA is also R&D Cajon Pass • Energy recovery on downhill train operations into grid. • Reuse of energy to assist in uphill train moves. • Enough energy to provide power for over 15, 000 households. • The energy captured is approximately 20% of the total solar energy generated from all solar power sources in California 8 Innovative Transportation Systems Corp. An affiliate of Shapery Enterprises
Energy Recovered from Cajon Pass • Energy recovery potential from Cajon pass is about 2. 4 x 104 k. W-hrs for one train consisting of 100 cars going from 4190 ft. down to sea level. • Assuming ~40% efficiency, one gets about 104 k. W-hrs per train. • Assuming 45 trains go down the pass per day, the annual energy (365 days) recovered is then ~1. 6 x 108 k. W-hrs or 160 GWh. Total CA Solar = 845 GWh vs Cajon Pass = 160 GWh • The energy captured is approximately 20% of the total solar energy generated from all solar power sources in California annually. • Enough energy to provide power for over 15, 000 households. 9 Innovative Transportation Systems Corp.

Calculation of Linear Motor Fuel Savings As much as 66% reduction in energy costs Operating assumptions 10 -mile route with 1 million cargo cars/year 50 tons/car → 500 million ton-miles of traffic per year Diesel fuel cost (conventional locomotives) 400 ton-miles/gallon fuel over 500 million miles = 1. 25 m gal/yr 1. 25 million gal/year x $3. 15/gal = $3. 94 M/year diesel fuel cost (Diesel cost as of 9/20/10 per U. S. Energy Information Administration www. eia. doe. gov) Electricity cost (LIM/LSM) 0. 5 lb diesel/Hp-hr → 14 Hp-hr. gal → 10. 6 k. Whr/gal 400 ton-miles/gal over 500 million miles = 13. 3 m k. Whr 13. 3 M k. Whr x $0. 10/k. Whr = $1. 33 M/year electricity cost 15 Innovative Transportation Systems Corp. An affiliate of Shapery Enterprises
Calculation of Linear Motor NOx Reduction • Same operating assumptions (500 million ton-miles/year of traffic) • NOx emissions (conventional locomotives) – 202 g NOx/gallon fuel x 1. 25 m gal/yr = 252. 5 m g NOx/yr – 252. 5 M g NOx/year = 278 tons NOx/year • NOx emissions (Linear Motor Rail) – 0. 15 lb NOx/MWhr (2000 SCE power plant rule) – 0. 15 lb NOx/MWhr x 13, 300 MWhr/year = 1, 995 lb NOx/year – 1, 995 lb NOx/year = 1 ton NOx/year That’s 278 Tons vs. 1 Ton over a single 10 mile stretch of rail 16 Innovative Transportation Systems Corp.

Benefit of a POLA ZECMS Magne. Rail Demonstration • A demonstration of LSM Magne. Rail at POLA also supports the Research and Development of multi-projects: • streetcars/trolley • Hwy. 710 expansion • Cajon Pass (new energy) • light rail transit systems • CA High Speed Rail • By leveraging the R&D results of a POLA ZECMS demonstration, the CEC will get more “bang” out of its funding money. 18 Innovative Transportation Systems Corp.

Next Steps • Port of Los Angeles staff to finalize identification of a demonstration site at the Port and make recommendation to Port Commission. Timeline – within one month. • POLA and POLB ZECMS project staff to support ITSC when seeking demonstration funds (joint Ports as possible sponsor). • Agencies targeted for demonstration funds: • CA Energy Commission • Dept. of Energy • SCAQMD • US DOT • CARB • CAAP TAP • ITSC and Ports’ staff to coordinate communication between aforementioned agencies for ZECMS demonstration funding. 19 Innovative Transportation Systems Corp.
