Indemnity Agreement
This Hazardous Material Indemnity Agreement (this “Agreement”), made as of October 22, 2025, is by UDOT CTL-Funding, LLC, a Tennessee limited liability company (the “Company”), and by Universal Logistics Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Principal”), jointly and severally (the Company and the Principal being referred to herein collectively as “Indemnitors” and individually as an “Indemnitor”), in favor of Wilmington Trust, National Association, as Trustee of the Ford (Stanton, TN) Lease-Backed Pass-Through Trust (the “Purchaser”).
W i t n e s s e t h:
Whereas, pursuant to a Note Purchase Agreement dated as of the date hereof between the Company and the Purchaser (the “Note Purchase Agreement”), the Company has agreed to offer and sell to the Purchaser, and said Purchaser has agreed to purchase from the Company, the Company’s 6.84% Senior Secured Note due November 15, 2034, in the original principal amount of $195,934,487.65 (the “Note”); and
Whereas, the Note is secured by, among other things, a Leasehold Deed of Trust, Security Agreement, Assignment of Leases and Rents and Fixture Filing Statement, from the Company to John Nielsen, as the Deed of Trust Trustee, for the benefit of the Purchaser (the “Deed of Trust”) and other documents dated of even date herewith between the Company and the Purchaser, encumbering the Company’s leasehold interest in that certain real property described on Exhibit A attached thereto and incorporated herein by this reference (the “Premises”) together with the Company’s interest in the buildings, structures, fixtures, additions, enlargements, extensions, modifications, repairs, replacements, improvements and appurtenances now standing or at any time constructed or placed upon the Premises (hereinafter, the “Improvements,” collectively with the Premises, the “Property”); and
Whereas, as a condition to purchasing the Note from the Company, the Purchaser has required that Indemnitors indemnify the Purchaser with respect to hazardous materials on, in, under, from or affecting the Property as herein set forth; and
Whereas, Principal is the owner and holder of a significant portion of the direct or indirect equity ownership interest in the Company, the purchase of the Note from the Company is of substantial benefit to the Principal and, therefore, Principal desires to indemnify the Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; and
Whereas, capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Deed of Trust.
Now, Therefore, to induce the Purchaser to purchase the Note from the Company and in consideration of the foregoing premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Indemnitors hereby jointly and severally covenant and agree for the benefit of the Purchaser, as follows:

In the event Indemnitors fail to do so, following receipt of written notice from the Purchaser and a commercially reasonable period of time for Indemnitors, or either of them, to cure, the Purchaser may take all actions to the extent required pursuant to Environmental Legal Requirements for the clean-up of the Property or other property affected thereby, including, without limitation, all investigative, monitoring, removal, containment or other remedial actions necessitated by the presence of Hazardous Materials in accordance with each and every applicable Environmental Legal Requirement to and any cost incurred in connection therewith shall be included in Costs and shall be paid by Indemnitors in accordance with the terms of Section 4(c) hereof.

(c)Upon the request of the Purchaser, and subject to the Composite Sublease and the Prime Lease, at any time and from time to time a default beyond any applicable notice and/or cure period under this Agreement has occurred and is continuing or an Event of Default under the Deed of Trust has occurred and is continuing or at such other time as the Purchaser has reasonable grounds to believe that Hazardous Material is or has been released, stored or disposed of on or around the Property (except those substances used by the Company, Tenant or other tenants of the Property in the ordinary course of their respective businesses and in compliance with each and every Environmental Legal Requirement) or that the Property may be in violation of any Environmental Legal Requirement, the Company shall provide, at Indemnitors’ sole cost and expense, to the extent permitted under the Composite Sublease or the Prime Lease, an inspection or environmental audit of the Property prepared by a hydrologist or environmental engineer or other appropriate consultant approved by the Purchaser (which approval or disapproval shall be reasonable unless an Event of Default under the Deed of Trust has occurred and is continuing) indicating the presence or absence of Hazardous Material on the Property or an inspection or environmental audit of the improvements located on the Property prepared by an engineer or consulting firm reasonably approved by the Purchaser indicating the presence or absence of friable asbestos or substances containing asbestos on the Property.

The cost of such inspection or environmental audit shall be included in Costs and shall be paid by Indemnitors in accordance with the terms of Section 4(c) hereof.
Section 4.Indemnification Procedures.
(a)If any claim or action shall be asserted or brought against the Purchaser based upon any of the matters for which the Purchaser is indemnified hereunder, the Purchaser shall notify Indemnitors in writing thereof and Indemnitors shall promptly assume the defense thereof, including, without limitation, the employment of counsel by Indemnitors which is reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser and the negotiation of any settlement; provided, however, that any failure of the Purchaser to notify Indemnitors of such matter shall not impair or reduce the obligations of Indemnitors hereunder, except to the extent that such failure impacts the ability of the Indemnitors to defend such action. The Purchaser shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and to participate in the defense thereof if the Purchaser has concluded that it is not properly being represented, as determined by Purchaser in its good faith discretion. In the event Indemnitors shall fail to discharge or undertake to defend the Purchaser against any claim, loss or liability for which the Purchaser is indemnified hereunder, and such failure continues for a period of ten (10) Business Days after Indemnitors receive notice thereof from Purchaser, the Purchaser may, at its sole option and election, defend or settle such claim, loss or liability, at Indemnitors’ expense. The liability of Indemnitors to the Purchaser hereunder shall be conclusively established by such settlement, provided such settlement is made in good faith, the amount of such liability to include both the settlement consideration and the costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, incurred by the Purchaser in effecting such settlement. In such event, such settlement consideration, costs and expenses shall be included in Costs and Indemnitors shall pay the same as hereinafter provided. The Purchaser’s good faith in any such settlement shall be conclusively established if the settlement is made on the advice of independent legal counsel for the Purchaser.
(b)With respect to claims with respect to Hazardous Materials handled by either Indemnitor, Indemnitors shall not, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser: (i) settle or compromise any action, suit, proceeding or claim or consent to the entry of any judgment that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the delivery by the claimant or plaintiff to the Purchaser of a full, complete and unconditional written release of the Purchaser (in form satisfactory to the Purchaser in its sole discretion) from all liability in respect of such action, suit, proceeding or claim and a dismissal with prejudice of such action, suit, proceeding or claim; or (ii) settle or compromise any action, suit, proceeding or claim in any manner that may adversely affect the Purchaser or obligate the Purchaser to pay any sum or perform any obligation. With respect to claims handled by Tenant under the Composite Sublease or by the Authority under the Prime Lease, subject to the terms of the Composite Sublease and the Prime Lease, respectively, Indemnitors will not agree and will not permit the Company to agree to any settlement unless such settlement meets the requirements of this subsection (b).
UDOT CTL-Funding, LLC Hazardous Material Indemnity Agreement
(c)All Costs shall be immediately reimbursable to the Purchaser when and as incurred and, in the event of any litigation, claim or other proceeding, without any requirement of waiting for the ultimate outcome of such litigation, claim or other proceeding, and Indemnitors shall pay to the Purchaser any and all Costs within thirty (30) days after written notice from the Purchaser itemizing and providing documentation to support the amounts thereof incurred to the date of such notice. In addition to any other remedy available for the failure of Indemnitors to periodically pay such Costs, such Costs, if not paid within said thirty‑day period, shall bear interest at the Default Rate (as defined in the Note) if, and to the extent and from the date that, the Purchaser has paid or has caused the payment of such Costs.
(d)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Operative Agreement, (i) the parties agree that the Indemnitors may satisfy their respective obligations under the Operative Agreements by enforcing the rights of the Company as landlord under the Composite Sublease and having Tenant provide Indemnitors and the Purchaser the indemnification and defenses required by the provisions of this Agreement (such indemnification and defenses, collectively, the “Indemnification”), and (ii) the Purchaser shall have the right to make a demand for payment to Principal under the Demand Note for any amount payable by Indemnitors hereunder if Indemnitors have not satisfied such demand promptly after receipt thereof from Purchaser. To the extent Tenant performs the Indemnification, the Purchaser agrees to accept such performance as if the same has been provided by Indemnitors under the other Operative Agreements.
Section 5.Reinstatement of Obligations.
If at any time all or any part of any payment made by Indemnitors or received by the Purchaser from Indemnitors under or with respect to this Agreement is or must be rescinded or returned for any reason whatsoever (including, but not limited to, the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of either Indemnitor), then the obligations of Indemnitors hereunder shall, to the extent of the payment rescinded or returned, be deemed to have continued in existence, notwithstanding such previous payment made by Indemnitors, or receipt of payment by the Purchaser, and the obligations of Indemnitors hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, as to such payment, all as though such previous payment by Indemnitors had never been made.
Section 6.Waivers by Indemnitors.
To the extent permitted by law, Indemnitors hereby waive and agree not to assert or take advantage of:

(e)Any defense based upon an election of remedies by the Purchaser;
(f)Any right or claim of right to cause a marshalling of the assets of either Indemnitor;

(h)Any duty on the part of the Purchaser to disclose to Indemnitors any facts the Purchaser may now or hereafter know about the Property, regardless of whether the Purchaser has reason to believe that any such facts materially increase the risk beyond that which Indemnitors intend to assume or has reason to believe that such facts are unknown to Indemnitors or has a reasonable opportunity to communicate such facts to Indemnitors, it being understood and agreed that Indemnitors are fully responsible for being and keeping informed of the condition of the Property and of any and all circumstances bearing on the risk that liability may be incurred by Indemnitors hereunder;
(i)Any lack of notice of disposition or of manner of disposition of any collateral for the Note;
(j)Any invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability, in whole or in part, of any one or more of the Operative Agreements;

(m)An assertion or claim that the automatic stay provided by 11 U.S.C. §362 (arising upon the voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy proceeding of the Company) or any other stay provided under any other debtor relief law (whether statutory, common law, case law or otherwise) of any jurisdiction whatsoever, now or hereafter in effect, which may be or become applicable, shall operate or be interpreted to stay, interdict, condition, reduce or inhibit the ability of the Purchaser to enforce any of its rights, whether now or hereafter required, which the Purchaser may have against Principal or the collateral for the Note;
UDOT CTL-Funding, LLC Hazardous Material Indemnity Agreement
(n)Any modifications of the Operative Agreements or any obligation of the Company relating to the Note by operation of law or by action of any court, whether pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, as amended, or any other debtor relief law (whether statutory, common law, case law or otherwise) of any jurisdiction whatsoever, now or hereafter in effect, or otherwise; and
(o)Any action, occurrence, event or matter consented to by Indemnitors under Section 7(g) hereof, under any other provision hereof, or otherwise.
Section 7.General Provisions.
(a)Fully Recourse. All of the terms and provisions of this Agreement are recourse obligations of Indemnitors and not restricted by any limitation on personal liability.
(b)Unsecured Obligations. Indemnitors hereby acknowledge that the Purchaser’s appraisal of the Property is such that the Purchaser is not willing to accept the consequences of the inclusion of Indemnitors’ indemnity set forth herein among the obligations secured by the Deed of Trust and the other Operative Agreements and that the Purchaser would not purchase the Note but for the unsecured personal liability undertaken by Indemnitors herein. Indemnitors further hereby acknowledge that even though the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of Indemnitors contained herein may be identical or substantially similar to representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the Company set forth in the Deed of Trust and secured thereby, the obligations of Indemnitors under this Agreement are not secured by the lien of the Deed of Trust or the security interests or other collateral described in the Deed of Trust or the other Operative Agreements, it being the intent of the Purchaser to create separate obligations of Indemnitors hereunder which can be enforced against Indemnitors without regard to the existence of the Deed of Trust or other Operative Agreements or the liens or security interests created therein.
(c)Survival. This Agreement shall be deemed to be continuing in nature and shall remain in full force and effect and shall survive the payment of the indebtedness evidenced and secured by the Operative Agreements and the exercise of any remedy by the Purchaser under the Deed of Trust or any of the other Operative Agreements, including, without limitation, any foreclosure or deed in lieu thereof, even if, as a part of such remedy, the Note is paid or satisfied in full; provided, however, that (i) the Purchaser shall not be entitled to recover against Indemnitors under this Agreement for an amount in excess of the amount of the Costs and (ii) so long as there is no claim then pending under this Agreement, the Indemnitors’ obligations under this Agreement shall terminate on the 18-month anniversary of the date on which the Note has been paid in full; for the avoidance of doubt, to the extent a claim is pending on such 18-month anniversary, the liability of Indemnitors under this Agreement shall be limited to such pending claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event (i) the Note have been indefeasibly paid in full in compliance with the Operative Agreements, and (ii) Indemnitors deliver to Purchaser a current Phase I environmental site assessment with respect to the Property (and a follow up Phase II environmental assessment report if required by the Phase I), each dated no earlier than forty-five (45) days’ prior to the date of the occurrence of the event set forth in clause (i), in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Purchaser and from an environmental engineer or other appropriate consultant reasonably approved by Purchaser which concludes that (a) the Property is in compliance, in all material respects, with all Environmental Legal Requirements, (b) there is no
UDOT CTL-Funding, LLC Hazardous Material Indemnity Agreement
evidence that the Property contains any Hazardous Material in amounts or concentrations requiring investigation or cleanup under Environmental Legal Requirements or in material violation of the representations, warranties, and covenants set forth in this Agreement or in the other Operative Agreements (other than those conditions expressly identified in the Environmental Report), provided such conditions have not exacerbated in any material respect after the Closing Date, (c) there are no environmental-related liens encumbering the Property, (d) there are no proceedings with respect to Environmental Legal Requirements with respect to the Property, and (e) there are then no claims pending under this Agreement, then the indemnification obligations and covenants of Indemnitors set forth in this Agreement shall terminate on the second (2nd) anniversary of the date on which items (i) and (ii) above are satisfied unless there is a claim pending against either of the Indemnitors hereunder and within the ninety (90) day period after such 18-month anniversary, the Purchaser has filed a lawsuit against the Indemnitors with respect to such claim.
(d)No Subrogation; No Recourse Against the Purchaser. Notwithstanding the satisfaction by Principal of any liability hereunder, Principal shall not have any right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement or indemnity whatsoever or any right of recourse to or with respect to the assets or property of the Company or to any collateral for the Note unless and until satisfaction in full in cash of the Note, all other amounts due under the Operative Agreements, and the Costs. In connection with the foregoing, Principal expressly waives any and all rights of subrogation to the Purchaser against the Company (except as expressly provided above), and Principal hereby waives any rights to enforce any remedy which the Purchaser may have against the Company and any right to participate in any collateral for the Note. In addition to and without in any way limiting the foregoing, Principal hereby subordinates any and all indebtedness of the Company now or hereafter owed to Principal to all indebtedness of the Company to the Purchaser, and agrees with the Purchaser that Principal shall not demand or accept any payment of principal or interest from the Company, shall not claim any offset or other reduction of obligations of Principal hereunder because of any such indebtedness and shall not take any action to obtain any of the collateral from the Note. Further, Principal shall not have any right of recourse against the Purchaser by reason of any action the Purchaser may take or omit to take under the provisions of this Agreement or under the provisions of any of the Operative Agreements.
(e)Reservation of Rights. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent or in any way diminish or interfere with any rights or remedies, including, without limitation, the right to contribution, which the Purchaser may have against the Company, either Indemnitor or any other party under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (codified at Title 42 U.S.C. §9601 et seq.), as it may be amended from time to time, or any other applicable federal, state or local laws, all such rights being hereby expressly reserved.
(f)Rights Cumulative; Payments. The Purchaser’s rights under this Agreement shall be in addition to all rights of the Purchaser under the Note, the Note Purchase Agreement and the other Operative Agreements. Further, payments made by Indemnitors under this Agreement shall not reduce in any respect the COMPANY’s obligations and liabilities under the NOTE, the Note Purchase Agreement and the other Operative Agreements, except to the extent payment of such expense is also required under the Deed of Trust or any other Operative agreements.
UDOT CTL-Funding, LLC Hazardous Material Indemnity Agreement
(g)No Limitation on Liability. Indemnitors hereby consent and agree that the liability of Indemnitors under this Agreement shall be unconditional and absolute and shall in no way be impaired or limited by any of the following events, whether occurring with or without notice to Indemnitors or with or without consideration as the case may be: (i) any extensions of time for performance required by any of the Operative Agreements or extension or renewal of the Note; (ii) except as provided in Section 2.3(g) of the Deed of Trust any sale, assignment or foreclosure of the Note, the Deed of Trust or any of the other Operative Agreements or any sale or transfer of the Property; (iii) except as provided in Section 2.3(h) of the Deed of Trust any change in the composition of the Company, including, without limitation, the withdrawal or removal of Indemnitors from any current or future position of ownership, management or control of the Company; (iv) the accuracy or inaccuracy of the representations and warranties made by Indemnitors herein or by the Company in any of the Operative Agreements; (v) the release of the Company or of any other person or entity from performance or observance of any of the agreements, covenants, terms or conditions contained in any of the Operative Agreements by operation of law, the Purchaser’s voluntary act or otherwise; (vi) the release or substitution in whole or in part of any security for the Note; (vii) the Purchaser’s failure to record the Deed of Trust or to file any financing statement (or the Purchaser’s improper recording or filing thereof) or to otherwise perfect, protect, secure or insure any lien or security interest given as security for the Note; (viii) the modification of the terms of any one or more of the Operative Agreements; or (ix) the taking or the failure to take any action by Purchaser of any type whatsoever.
