May 22, 2013 Mr. Herbert Wheeler Railtech Ltd. 325 Ave. Lee Baie-D urf, QX 3S3 Canada Our Reference: Subject: R26549/13CA21763 Report Of Surface Burning Characteristics Tests On Samples As Submitted By Railtech Ltd. Dear Mr. Wheeler: This is a Report summarizing the results of a test conducted under a preliminary investigation identified as Assignment No. 13CA21763. GENERAL: Preliminary investigations are initiated to obtain information with respect to a product or products prior to submittal to UL LLC (UL) for Investigation, Classification and Follow-Up Service. This Report does not constitute evidence of such a submittal to UL. The results relate only to items tested. METHOD: Each test was conducted in accordance with Standard ANSI/UL723, Tenth Edition, dated September 13, 2010, "Test for Surface Burning Characteristics of Building Materials", (ASTM E84-11). The test determines the Surface Burning Characteristics of the material, specifically the flame spread and smoke developed indices when exposed to fire.

The maximum distance the flame travels along the length of the sample from the end of the igniting flame is determined by observation. The Flame Spread Index of the material is derived by plotting the progression of the flame front on a time-distance basis, ignoring any flame front recession, and using the equations described below: A. CFS = 0.515 A T when A T is less than or equal to 97.5 minute-foot. B. CFS = 4900/(195-A T ) when A T is greater than 97.5 minute-foot. Where A T = total area under the time distance curve expressed in minute-foot. The Smoke Developed Index (SDI) is determined by rounding the Calculated Smoke Developed (CSD) as described in UL 723. The CSD is determined by the output of photoelectric equipment operating across the furnace flue pipe. A curve is developed by plotting the values of light absorption (decrease in cell output) against time. The CSD is derived by expressing the net area under the curve for the material tested as a percentage of the area under the curve for untreated red oak. The CSD is expressed as: CSD = (A m /A ro ) x 100 Where: CSD = Calculated Smoke Developed A m = The area under the curve for the test material. A ro = The area under the curve for untreated red oak. SAMPLES: The samples utilized in this investigation were neither prepared nor selected by a Laboratories' representative such that no verification of composition can be provided. Sample Description Test No. System 1 Skyfold NRC Panels No Finish Due to the rigidity of the test samples, supplementary means of support was not required. RESULTS: The results are tabulated below are considered applicable only to the specific samples tested. Data sheets and graphical plots of flame travel versus time and smoke developed versus time are also enclosed.

No use of a Classification Marking has been authorized as a result of this investigation. Since the anticipated work has been completed, we have instructed our Accounting Department to terminate the investigation and invoice you for the charges incurred to date.
