Additional Correspondence Related to the Proposal Jim Hume Response from NABI Page 1 From: Jim Hume To: Dave Leicester; Jim Culley; Kathleen Walker; Mike Conley Date: 6/12/2007 7:38:10 AM Subject: Response from NABI Here are the questions I sent to NABI, along with their responses: 1. Your proposal says you comply with the forward -facing seating requirement, but the drawing shows a substantial number of inward -facing seats. Can the bus be configured with all forward -facing seats? North American Bus Industries, Inc. response — the 35- and 40-foot seating layouts included with our proposal are showing aisle -facing seats in the wheelchair positions in order to allow ample room for wheelchair maneuvering in this area of the bus. The seats over the rear wheel houses are configured in an aisle -facing arrangement in an effort to maximize seating. In converting the aisle -facing passenger seats over the rear wheel houses to forward -facing seats, you will most likely lose 2 passenger seats ... one on each side of the bus. 2. We can't tell by the drawings which door is the battery door. Can you send me something that makes that clear? North American Bus Industries, Inc. response — The battery compartment door is located on the right side (i.e. curb side) of the vehicle and just aft of the rear axle. I've enclosed a general drawing of the service and access doors for a typical NABI Model 40-LFW bus, which depicts the battery access door. The location of the battery access door on the general drawing is the same location of the battery access door for the buses proposed to Transfort. This location is consistent for all 3 lengths of buses. (drawing attached to this message) What size are the lights on the rear? North American Bus Industries, Inc. response — The rear lights are 7-inch LED for the brake/tail lights and turn signals. The back-up lights are 4-inch LED. Rich Himes, NABI rep, also told me that they seldom work out final seating configurations until after a contract has been awarded. There are so many possible combinations that it is impossible to present all of them in an RFP. If selected, he's positive NABI can work out whatever seating arrangement Transfort would like. I'm sure this is true of the other two vendors as well. Jim Date IC, ACCESS DMR ATTIC, ACCESS D13I3R NABI 40 LFW - 40 'LOW FLOOR BUS STANDARD Date, 30, ❑ct, 2006. SERVICE AND ACCESS DOORS Created by�acktmonn Drawing nuMberl80-LF40-A05 June 22, 2007 NABI BUS QUESTIONS 1. Please verify that the engine you will provide will be the Cummins ISL-G 280hp. The Cummins ISL-G 280 hp engine will be provided in all three (3) LFW Models (i.e. 31-, 35- and 40-1,FW). 2. Do you actually offer a 6.14:1 rear axle ratio? What is the top speed? The 6.1.4 rear axle ratio is available as well as the 5.63, 5.38 and 4.89 rear axle ratios. Per our telephone conversation, the SCAAN included with our Proposal (see Tab J) which used the Cummins ISL-G engine, Allison B400R, 6-speed transmission and the 4.89 rear axle ratio gives a 79+ mph top speed. Top speeds for those axle ratios available are as follows: 1. 79 mph with the 4.89 2. 72 mph with the 5.38 3. 69 mph with the 5.63 4. 63 mph with the 6.1.4 You are only offering a rear area roof hatch, correct? Our Proposal included a single roof hatch approximately over the rear axle for all three (3) LFW Models (i.e. 31-, 35- and 40-LFW). Please note that the required emergency egress openings can still be met with the use of a single roof hatch. If Transfort desires, we can provide a second roof hatch for all three (3) bus lengths. Please see exterior elevation drawings for the Models 31-, 35- and 40-LFW, which depict a second roof hatch approximately over the front axle. 4. Can we add a video system to the bus build if we give you specifications and manufacturer? We are in the process of selecting a vendor right now and would like to include the cameras on the next bus build. A video surveillance system can be added to the bus build as tong as we are given a change order in advance of commencement of the build and taking into consideration the lead times of the vendor you select. Once you have made your decision, please advise us of the selected vendor and provide us with the specifications of the camera system you desire to be outfitted on the buses. 5. Will you provide a total of four fold down forward facing seats in the wheel chair locations if we so request? Based on our telephone conversation on Friday, June 22 North American Bus Industries has not installed the Freedman type forward -facing fold and flip seats in any of its LFW Model buses. If Transfort decides that it desires this type of passenger seat in its buses, we would be happy to investigate further and provide a quotation. 6. Please verify that On Spot automatic snow chains will fit on your low floor bus. Regarding the On Spot automatic snow chains, North American Bus Industries, Inc's. :Engineering is investigating whether or not this equipment can be outfitted on the Models 31-, 35- and 40-LFW buses, and once this investigation is completed I will advise of our findings. 7. Please verify the stainless steel seat option is the entire seat and shell with a cloth insert. The passenger seats included with our main proposal are American Seating 6468T, T- pedestal seats with VR-50 vandal resistant Ioldsworth W989 :inserts and with lower portion of the frame stainless steel and with tipper portion of the frame being mild steel. For the stainless steel option, the entire seat frame is stainless steel. 8. Explain in detail the process to repair and file claims under warranty with NABI and include your labor reimbursement rate. For a complete discussion of our warranty procedures, including our warranty claims process please see attached Warranty Procedures manual. North. American Bus Industries, Inc. will pay Transfort's/City of Fort Collins' prevailing labor rate. Please confirm in writing the prevailing labor rate. 9. Please ups copies of your most recent service, wiring, and parts books/manuals for your low floor bus. They will be returned within 20 working days undamaged or you are authorized to bill Transfort for their value. - To 6570 Portner Road, Fort Collins Colorado 80525 Electronic copies of representative publications were included with our offer on a CD. Publications on the CD included Operator's, Maintenance and Parts Manuals as well as electrical and air schematics. If hard copies of these representative manuals are desired, please don't hesitate to let me know and I will forward a set to your attention. 10. Could you give us a quote for the BRT styling upgrade on a 35' low floor bus if you offer one? North American Bus Industries' BRT models are a separate platform from the LFW model proposed to Transfort, Fort Collins. Our BRT designed vehicles represent a substantial departure from the conventional or "shoe -box" appearing buses and involved a total redesign from the ground up and not just in appearance. The BRT models include the following lengths: l . Model. 37-BRT, 37.5' length 2. Model 40-BRT, 40' length 3. Model 42-BRT, 42.5 length 4. Model 60-BRT, 60' length 5. Model 65-BRT, 65' length As you can see from the above mentioned BRT lengths, we do not have a 35-foot version of the BRT. What we have done since our Proposal was tendered is re -style the front mask of the Model LFW platform in all lengths (i.e. 31-, 35- and 40-foot lengths). This re -styling of the front mask gives a more styled and sleek appearance to the front of the bus and this re -styled front mask will be provided on all lengths of the above mentioned LFW platform to be built for Transfort, Fort Collins. I have included with this email response a few rendering of this re -styled front mask as well as revised exterior elevation drawings depicting this re -styled front mask. Pre -Award Audit Ft.

Please also note the following important elements of this offer: 1. Regarding the Technical Checklist (included under Tab D), very few exceptions have been taken in an effort to provide buses that will comply with Transfort's and the City of Fort Collins' requirements. In those few exceptions, it is felt that an acceptable alternative is being provided. 2. Training (described under Tab K) will be provided for all bus lengths as orders are placed. 3. Warranties to be provided (described under Tab M) exceed the warranties specked by the City of Fort Collins. 4. Aftermarket parts support of the buses proposed herein consists of a main operation in Delaware, OH with regional divisions in Fife, WA and Ontario, CA. 5. Regarding company experience (described under Tab O) and human resources (described under Tab P), North American Bus Industries, Inc. is well established in the U.S. Transit industry. During NABI's 15 years tenure as a builder of heavy-duty city transit buses, NABI has developed and produced more CNG powered buses than any other builder. (1,271 CNG buses have been delivered to the Los Angeles MTA alone, plus hundreds more have been delivered to numerous other operators of CNG powered buses). 6. Consistent with the solicitation's intent, NABI herewith tenders proposals pertaining to three different sized heavy-duty transit buses. All three such models are comprised of common design elements, with the smaller two Headquarters & Manufacturing 106 National Drive, Anniston, AL 36207 Tel: (256) 831-4296 Fax: (256) 831-4299 Email: nabiusa@nabiusa.com Aftermarket Operations 1275 S.

Hume April 20, 2007 models derived by shortening NABI's industry standard, 40-LFW, 40-foot low -floor bus. Detailed drawings of the 40-foot and 35-foot models are included herewith. Since it is problematic whether or not the smallest of these three models will be purchased pursuant to this solicitation, and since the exact design of this smallest version is not yet complete, NABI has not included a drawing off this particular derivative. However, should Transfort or an assignee ultimately decide to purchase such buses, NABI will provide drawings of this model upon request for review by Transfort or its assignee. North American Bus Industries, Inc. feels it's well qualified to build, deliver and support buses that it would provide to Transfort and the City of Fort Collins and looks forward to receiving an invitation to further discuss this proposal.

Gibson, Senior Vice President Date: cS 2 © i If Attest: (Corporate Sea[) NABI MAINTENANCE MANUAL Introduction and Preventive Maintenance Introduction Introduction and Preventive Maintenance Introduction The steering system (Figure 1) consists of the follow- ing components and subsystems: • Steering Wheel and Column Assembly • Miter Box and Steering Shaft • Power Steering Gear Assembly • Pitman Arm and Drag Link • Front Axle Steering Components • Hydraulic Pump and Reservoir CAUTION: All steering components and attach- ments are important as they could affect perfor- mance of vital components and systems. They must be replaced with parts bearing the same part number or with equivalent parts if replace- ment becomes necessary. Do not use replace- ment parts of lesser quality or substitute design Torque values must be used as specified during) inspection and reassembly to assure proper re- tention of these parts. Component Locations The steering wheel and column assembly is mount( at the forward center of the operator's area and ex- tends through the floor. The miter box assembly is mounted to the bus frame structure below the steer ing column. The lower steering column shaft is con oaou Figure 1 - Steering System Mechanical Components 1106-GCRTA NABI MAINTENANCE MANUAL 4A-2 Component Operation Introduction and Preventive Maintenance nected to the miter box input through a splined cou- pling shaft with universal joints. The steering shaft is used to connect the miter box output shaft to the power steering gear input shaft. The power steering gear assembly is mounted to the bus frame structure forward of the left -front wheel. The steering gear pitman arm is connected to a drag link which is attached to the steering arm at the left front wheel. The engine -driven hydraulic pump, hydraulic oil cooler, and reservoir are located in the engine com- partment. These hydraulic components are also used with the engine hydraulic fan drive system. Connecting hydraulic lines are routed from the reser- voir to the pump, from the pump to the steering gear, from the steering gear to the oil cooler, and from the oil cooler back to the reservoir. Component Operation STEERING WHEEL AND COLUMN ASSEMBLY The Steering Column (Figure 2) can be set in a choice of six tilting positions through a range of 42 HORN BUTTON �i m TILT/TELESCOPE LEVER Figure 2 - Steering Column and Controls degrees. The steering wheel can be raised or low- ered on the column through a two-inch range. A side mounted control lever provides adjustment for both tilt and telescoping features. The column can be moved from one position to an- other by pulling up and holding the control lever until the new column position is reached. The column is locked into place by releasing the lever. To adjust steering wheel position, push down on the control le- ver and raise or lower the wheel position as required. Releasing the lever will lock the steering wheel in po- sition. MITER BOX AND STEERING SHAFT Rotary motion of the steering wheel is transmitted to the frame -mounted steering gear through a 90 de- gree miter box assembly and steering shaft. The mi- ter box is equipped with straight bevel gears and has a 1 to 1 ratio. Dexron®-III transmission fluid is used as a lubricant for all internal components. The steering shaft assembly is a tubular unit equipped with a splined slip -joint and universal joints at each end. Both universal joints on the shaft have splined pinch clamps to attach the shaft to the miter box and steering gear. POWER STEERING GEAR The RBL Model C-700V (Figure 3) is an integral hy- draulic power steering gear. It incorporates the me - INPUT SHAFT VALVE BODY SPINDLE BALL ® ASSY. SCREW STEERING LIMITING STEM OUTPUT SHAFT PISTON 04004 Figure 3 - Power Steering Gear Assembly 1106-GCRTA NABI MAINTENANCE MANUAL Introduction and Preventive Maintenance chanical and hydraulic components into a cast hous- ing which also serves as the power cylinder. The steering shaft is coupled to the gear at the input shaft which transmits steering effort through a recircu- lating ball screw and piston. The piston is an integral part of the power assist and also acts as a steering damper. The engine driven hydraulic pump supplies the flow and pressure. Actual steering is accomplished mechanically. Effort applied at the steering wheel results in mechanical movement within the steering gear which causes the vehicle to change its direction of travel. The hydraulic power assist components function to reduce the me- chanical effort required to turn the steering wheel. A loss of hydraulic power will not prevent the vehicle from being maneuvered mechanically, however greater effort will be required to turn the steering wheel. Mechanical Operation The turning effort exerted on the steering wheel is transmitted to the steering gear input shaft, which is part of the spindle assembly. The spindle and piston function like a screw and nut through the action of re- circulating balls that serve as an interface. Rotation of the spindle causes axial movement of the piston within the power cylinder. Gear teeth, cut directly into the piston, mesh with corresponding gear teeth on the output shaft. As the piston moves, the output shaft and the attached pitman arm are rotated. Hydraulic Operation Functioning together, the spindle and valve body as- semblies serve as a means of flow and pressure con- trol for the power assist portion of the steering gear. Hydraulic fluid enters and exits the steering gear through lines connected to corresponding ports in the valve body. The valve body assembly contains a series of circular channels and radial passages which direct the flow of oil into and out of the rotary control valve in the spin- dle assembly. In addition, the valve body also con- tains a pressure relief and bypass valve. The pres- sure relief valve ensures that a preset maximum pres- sure is not exceeded. It is always set at a pressure level below that of the power steering pump relief valve and is intended to limit the power assist to a specific maximum level. 1106-GCRTA nt Operation The bypass valve is used to reduce the manual st( ing effort required in the event hydraulic pressure i lost. The bypass valve also permits fluid to circula within the steering gear during neutral steer condi- tions. Steering Limiting Valve Power assisted movement of the piston within its bore is limited by externally adjustable poppet valv s installed in both piston faces. As the piston ap- i proaches its extreme travel in either direction, a ste unseats the steering limiting poppet valve. Some h - draulic power assist is removed as pressurized oil passes around the poppet valve to the other side o the piston and to the return line. Continued move- ment of the piston will result in removal of increasing amounts of power assist and cause increased steer- ing effort. Steering limiting reduces the maximum power assist that can be transmitted to the axle steer- ing linkages and components. Pressure Relief and Bypass Valve The pressure relief valve is located in the valve bo, This valve limits hydraulic pressure within the pow( steering gear to a pressure lower than the relief va on the power steering pump. The bypass valve is located adjacent to the pressun relief valve in the valve body. When it is necessary I steer the vehicle without the power steering pump it operation, the bypass valve permits oil to flow from the return to the supply passages within the steerinS gear. As the power piston moves inside the housing oil displaced from one side is transferred to the othe through the bypass valve, thus preventing reservoir flooding and cavitation in the pressure line. HYDRAULIC PUMP AND RESERVOIR Hydraulic pressure for power steering and fan drive operation is supplied by an engine driven pump as- sembly mounted on the rear of the air compressor. The fluid reservoir for the steering and fan drive hy- draulic circuit is bracket -mounted on the right side of the engine compartment. This assembly contains a filler cap, a fluid level sight glass, and three internal filter elements. Reservoir capacity is approximately 1 quarts. Oil inlet, outlet, and drain ports are located i the bottom of the assembly. NABI MAINTENANCE MANUAL 4A-4 Hydraulic System Operation Introduction and Preventive Maintenance Hydraulic System Operation Power steering is accomplished by hydraulic pres- sure. This pressure is supplied by the gear -type hy- draulic pump. Connecting hydraulic lines of flexible and rigid tubing are routed from the reservoir to the pump, from the pump to the fan motor manifold, from the manifold to the steering gear, and from the steer- ing gear back through the oil cooler to the reservoir. A connection and flow diagram of the power steering system is shown in Figure 4. The steering hydraulic fluid is filtered in the reservoir to prevent debris from entering the pump and steer- ing gear. This filtration occurs before the fluid enters the pump. When the pump is operating, there is a constant, low pressure oil flow through the steering gear. With no input applied through the steering wheel, the gear is in the neutral or non -steering position. When the steering wheel is turned, the steering shaft turns the steering gear input shaft. Rotation of the input shaft causes the steering gear piston to move, resulting in pitman arm rotation.

To ensure maximum operating performance, the hy- draulic system should be kept clean and free of con- tamination. Periodic inspection should also be made to check for leaks and proper operation. The service procedures that follow should be performed during regular system servicing or after component replace- ment. Oil Level At regular intervals, check oil level in the fluid reser- voir by removing the dipstick in the reservoir cover cap. If oil level on dipstick is between the "ADD" and "FULL" marks, the oil level is adequate. Loss of oil in- dicates leakage in the system. Check all fittings, lines and connections for leakage. If it is necessary to add oil, refer to "Lubrication", Section 1 B, for type of oil to be used. Introduction 413-1 2. Place a suitable drain pan under the reservoir. Loosen and remove the drain plug at bottom o reservoir and allow fluid to drain.

Raise vehicle on hoist or utilize a service pit. Lo- cate the steering gear supply and return line con- nections at the bulkhead behind the front axle. Place a suitable drain pan under the connections and disconnect the fittings. Allow fluid to drain, then reconnect and tighten the fittings. 4. Return to the reservoir and replace the filter ele- ment as follows: a. Refer to Figure 1. Remove the two bolts (1) and the band clamps (2) securing cover (3) to the reservoir shell (10). Remove the cover and dipstick assembly (4). b. Loosen and remove the wingnut (6), hold-down spring (7), and retainer washer (8) securing the filter elements (9). c. Remove and discard the three filter element cartridges. d. Wipe the interior of the reservoir with a clean, lint -free cloth. e. Install three new filter element cartridges (9) on the reservoir stem, and then install the re- tainer washer (8), spring (7), and wingnut (6). f. Inspect the reservoir cover gasket (5) for damage and replace gasket if necessary. Reinstall the reservoir cover (3) and band clamps (2). 5. Fill the reservoir with fluid specified in "Lubrica- tion," Section 1B. Start the engine and run at idle speed. Add fluid to reservoir to maintain the oil level. Do not allow the reservoir to empty while the system fills. 6. When the fluid level stabilizes, slowly turn the steering wheel from left to right several times to remove air from the system. Continue this proce- dure while maintaining the reservoir fluid level un- til fluid in the reservoir stops bubbling. Steering Linkage If steering linkage between the steering gear and front wheels is out of adjustment, bent, twisted, worn, or damaged as a result of an accident, steering action of the vehicle can be seriously affected. Whenever any steering linkage parts are repaired, replaced or adjusted, steering geometry and wheel alignment must be checked and necessary corrections made. Refer to "Front Axle Alignment", Section 26, for inspection and alignment information. At regular maintenance inspection intervals, check, and if necessary, tighten steering gear mounting bolts, pitman arm mounting nut, and drag link rod end n uts. Axle Turning Angle Proper adjustment of the hydraulic and mechanical limitations of the steering system is necessary to pre- vent undue wear and damage to axle and steering components. If the hydraulic limitation of the steering gear is out of adjustment, then the wheels can not be fully turned by hydraulic assistance, or conversely, the hydraulic pressure can not be released at the maximum wheel turn. Adjustable limiting valves are provided at each end of the steering gear housing. These poppet -type valves are designed to relieve hydraulic pressure prior to the steering gear piston reaching the end of its travel in either direction. This ensures that the axle stops are not impacted with full hydraulic assist when a full wheel cut is made in either direction. It also serves to protect the pump and steering linkage, and pre- vents high hydraulic pressure. The axle steering stops limit the turning angle of the front wheels as well as the activation point of the steering hydraulic system pressure relief. Adjustable stop bolts on the axle steering knuckles limit front wheel turning angle to the right and left. The steering gear hydraulic limiters and axle stop bolts should be set to provide the specified turning angle of 45 de- grees. TURNING ANGLE CHECKS AND ADJUSTMENTS Vehicle Preparation and Inspection 1. Position the bus over a service pit. 2. Place wheel chocks to secure the rear wheels and release the parking brake. 3. Check and adjust tire pressure to specifications on VIN nameplate. 4. Maintain suspension system air pressure at 120 psi. 1106-GCRTA NABI MAINTENANCE MANUAL Service 5. Check vehicle ride height settings (Refer to Sec- tion 5B). 6. Check for hydraulic fluid leaks. Repair or replace any damaged fittings and hoses. Replace the steering gear if leakage is excessive. 7. Check axle components for loose or damaged hardware. Torque requirements are shown on pages 2A-2 and 56-2. 8. Check for worn or damaged rod ends on steering linkage.

When diagnosing steering problems, oil pressure and flow must meet design specifications. A pressure gauge rated at 3000 psi and a flow meter with a capacity of 10 GPM are needed to check pressure and flow. Self contained testers are available as shown in Figure 4 and can be used to check system flow, pressure or both at the same time. For pressure tests only, a test port is provided at the front of the vehicle as shown in Figure 5. The steer- ing test kit for measuring pressure and flow should be connected in -line between the pump outlet and steer- ing gear inlet. Oil temperature can be measured by placing a thermometer in the reservoir.

CAUTION: A malfunctioning pump pressure relief valve may not relieve pump pressure and closing the shut-off valve may cause pump damage or high pressure hoses to rupture resulting in per- sonal injury. When performing the following pro- cedure, constantly observe the pressure gauge while closing the shut-off valve. If pressure rises rapidly or appears to be uncontrolled, do not completely close the valve before inspecting the pump and pressure relief valve. 3. With the engine running at idle speed, slowly close the shut off valve and read the pressure at which the pressure relief valve opens. Open the shut off valve immediately after reading to avoid heat buildup or possible damage to the pump. This pressure reading should exceed 2000 psi. BACK PRESSURE CHECK System back pressure is checked with the steering wheel stationary and the hydraulic system at normal operating temperature. Normal system back pressure will be 30-50 psi at engine idle. High operating temperatures can be caused by ab- normally high back pressure. Restrictions in fittings or lines can contribute to high back pressure. OPERATING TEMPERATURE CHECK The steering system oil temperature is best checked after two hours of normal operation. An ideal operat- ing temperature should range between 140-160 de- grees F. Normal operation in this range will allow for intermittently higher temperatures which can occur during periods of heavy steering usage. FLOW TEST - MINIMUM ALLOWABLE FLOW With the engine running at idle speed, vehicle sta- tionary at floor level with a normal load on the front axle, turn the wheels from full right to full left and ob- serve the flow meter. The flow must not fall below 4 GPM. 1. If the supply pump is performing to specification, install a one -inch spacer between the axle stops on one side. Keep fingers clear of pinch points and be sure block is square to points of contact. CAUTION: When performing this test, do not hold torque on the steering wheel for more than 5 sec- onds beyond the time the pressure relief setting has been reached. It may damage the unit or cause the oil temperature to rise above 200 de- grees. Turn the steering wheel in the direction necessary to pinch the spacer block. Apply sufficient torque to ensure the steering gear control valve is com- pletely open in the direction of the turn. At this point, the pressure gauge will read the gear pres- sure relief setting, which should be less than 1200 psi. 3. If the pressure reading is within ± 60 psi of the pump relief setting, the pressure relief valve is op- erating properly. 1106-GCRTA NABI MAINTENANCE MANUAL ng System Service Troubleshooting PRELIMINARY CHECKS Before proceeding to the troubleshooting chart, it is strongly recommended that some preliminary checks be made and a road test be performed to eliminate unnecessary work. 1. Check for proper and equal tire inflation on the steering axle. Note any abnormal tire wear which may be attributable to front end alignment. 2. Make certain the fluid reservoir oil level is correct. 3. Make certain the power steering pump is operat- ing correctly. 4. Visually inspect the following components for ob- vious damage, wear, mis-adjustment and possible binding: a. Steering column, miter box, and steering shaft b. Axle steering arms, tie rods, tie rod ends and knuckles c. General looseness in the steering linkages 5. Check hoses for kinks or other damage. The most common faults may be grouped under the following headings: 1. Power steering does not operate. 2. The power steering is stiff in one direction and normal in the other. 3. Excessive free play at the steering wheel. 4. The power steering operates normally but is inter- mittently hard. 5. Oil leaks. 6. The power steering is stiff when turning the steer- ing wheel quickly. 7. The power steering does not return correctly. 8. The power steering operates but with noise, tur- bulence or vibration. 1106-GCRTA Troublesh Specifications HYDRAULIC PUMP Max. Continuous Pressure. . . . . • . . . 3250psi Max.
