EXPLANATORY NOTE

As previously announced, on May 20, 2018, Westinghouse Air Brake Technologies Corporation (“Wabtec”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with General Electric Company (“GE”), Transportation Systems Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (“SpinCo”), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of GE, and Wabtec US Rail Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Wabtec, pursuant to which Wabtec will combine with GE’s transportation business (collectively, “GE Transportation”) in a modified Reverse Morris Trust transaction, through the merger (the “Merger”) of Merger Sub with and into SpinCo, whereby the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease and SpinCo will continue as the surviving company and as a wholly owned subsidiary of Wabtec. SpinCo has filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share, certain of which common shares will be distributed to GE stockholders prior to the Merger. In the Merger, the shares of SpinCo common stock held by GE and GE stockholders will be converted into the right to receive shares of Wabtec common stock. The Merger will be preceded by a direct sale of certain assets of GE Transportation (the “Direct Sale”) from GE to Wabtec US Rail, Inc. (the “Direct Sale Purchaser”) in exchange for a cash payment of $2.9 billion. Concurrently, the Direct Sale Purchaser will assume certain liabilities of GE Transportation in connection with the Direct Sale. GE and Wabtec may elect, in an economically equivalent structure, to reduce the assets included in the Direct Sale by $25 million and, in such event, GE would contribute such assets to SpinCo and would receive shares of non-voting preferred stock in SpinCo (the “SpinCo preferred stock”) in the SpinCo Transfer in addition to the SpinCo common stock that GE will otherwise be receiving in the SpinCo Transfer. If GE and Wabtec make such an election, the Direct Sale Purchase Price would be reduced by $25 million. The SpinCo preferred stock would not be distributed in the Distribution or converted in the Merger and, accordingly, would remain outstanding as stock of SpinCo and held by GE immediately following the effective time of the Merger. The SpinCo preferred stock would pay cumulative quarterly dividends at a rate, and have other terms, to be agreed by GE and Wabtec that would be intended to result in the fair market value of the SpinCo preferred stock equaling its face value. At any time after the seventh anniversary of the effective time of the Merger, SpinCo would be permitted (but would not be obligated) to redeem the SpinCo preferred stock for a per share redemption price (including an amount in satisfaction of any accrued and unpaid dividends).

Based on market conditions prior to the closing of the Merger, corporate finance considerations and timing considerations, GE will determine whether the shares of SpinCo common stock that will be distributed to GE stockholders will be distributed in a spin-off or a split-off. In a spin-off, all GE stockholders would receive from GE, on a pro rata basis, a number of shares of SpinCo common stock constituting not less than 80.25% of the outstanding shares of SpinCo common stock (the “Distribution Shares”). In a split-off, GE would offer its stockholders the option to exchange shares of GE common stock for shares of SpinCo common stock in an exchange offer, resulting in a reduction in GE’s outstanding shares. If the exchange offer is undertaken and consummated, the remaining Distribution Shares, if any, would be distributed on a pro rata basis to GE stockholders whose shares of GE common stock remain outstanding after the consummation of the exchange offer. Immediately following the consummation of the spin-off or split-off, as the case may be, and in connection with the Merger, the shares of SpinCo held by GE and GE stockholders will be converted into the right to receive shares of Wabtec common stock in the Merger. This registration statement on Form S-4 assumes that the Distribution Shares will be distributed to GE stockholders pursuant to a spin-off. Once a final decision is made regarding the manner of distribution of the shares, this registration statement will be amended to reflect that decision, if necessary. In addition, SpinCo has filed a registration statement on Form 10 (No. 000-55990) to register shares of SpinCo common stock which will be distributed to GE stockholders under the assumption that such shares of SpinCo common stock will be distributed to GE stockholders pursuant to a spin-off.

SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED NOVEMBER 21, 2018

PRELIMINARY COPY

On May 20, 2018, Westinghouse Air Brake Technologies Corporation (“Wabtec”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with General Electric Company (“GE”), Transportation Systems Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (“SpinCo”), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of GE, and Wabtec US Rail Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Wabtec, pursuant to which Wabtec will combine with GE’s transportation business (collectively, “GE Transportation”) in a modified Reverse Morris Trust transaction, through the merger (the “Merger”) of Merger Sub with and into SpinCo, whereby the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease and SpinCo will continue as the surviving company and as a wholly owned subsidiary of Wabtec. Prior to the closing of the Merger, GE will distribute (the “Distribution”), on a pro rata basis, the Distribution Shares (as defined herein) of SpinCo common stock, par value $0.01 per share, to GE stockholders (the “Spin-Off”). The Merger will also be preceded by a direct sale of certain assets of GE Transportation (the “Direct Sale”) from GE to Wabtec US Rail, Inc. (the “Direct Sale Purchaser”) in exchange for a cash payment of $2.9 billion. Concurrently, the Direct Sale Purchaser will assume certain liabilities of GE Transportation in connection with this purchase. In the Merger, the outstanding shares of SpinCo common stock will be converted into the right to receive shares of Wabtec common stock, par value $0.01 per share. Wabtec will continue as a publicly-traded company, owning both its current business and GE Transportation.

GE stockholders are receiving this prospectus-information statement:

| • | as an information statement from SpinCo to inform GE stockholders of the Spin-Off; and

| • | as a prospectus from Wabtec for the issuance by Wabtec of the shares of its common stock that will be issued in the Merger.

Based on the number of shares of GE common stock outstanding and the number of shares of Wabtec common stock outstanding, calculated on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, in each case as of November 1, 2018, and assuming that GE distributes 80.25% of the outstanding shares of SpinCo common stock to GE stockholders in the Distribution, if the Merger had occurred on November 1, 2018, a GE stockholder would have received 1 share of Wabtec common stock for every approximately 110.2 shares of GE common stock held by such GE stockholder on the record date for the Distribution (approximately 0.00907 shares of Wabtec common stock for each share of GE common stock).

The actual number of shares of Wabtec common stock that a GE stockholder will receive with respect to each share of GE common stock will be determined based on the number of shares of GE common stock outstanding on the record date for the Distribution, the proportion of the outstanding shares of SpinCo common stock distributed to GE stockholders in the Distribution and the number of shares of Wabtec common stock, on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Merger.

Upon consummation of the Merger and calculated based on Wabtec’s outstanding common stock immediately prior to the Merger on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, 50.1% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock would be held collectively by GE and pre-Merger holders of GE common stock (with approximately 9.9% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock expected to be held by GE) and 49.9% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock would be held by pre-Merger Wabtec stockholders.

Wabtec common stock is currently traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “WAB.” On , 2018, the closing price of Wabtec common stock was $ per share.

The Boards of Directors of each of Wabtec and GE have unanimously approved the proposed Transactions. GE stockholders are not required to vote on the proposed Transactions. GE is not asking its stockholders for a proxy, and GE stockholders are requested not to send a proxy to GE. GE stockholders will retain all of their shares of GE common stock and will not be required to pay for any shares of Wabtec common stock they receive.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE TRANSACTIONS

The following are some of the questions that stockholders of Wabtec and GE may have and answers to those questions. These questions and answers, as well as the summary section that follows, are not meant to be a substitute for the information contained in the remainder of this prospectus-information statement, and this information is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed descriptions and explanations contained elsewhere in this prospectus-information statement. You are urged to read this prospectus-information statement in its entirety.

Questions and Answers About The Transactions

What are the key steps of the Transactions?

The contemplated Transactions will combine GE Transportation with Wabtec’s existing business, which will be effected through a series of transactions, including the Merger, that are described in more detail below and elsewhere in this prospectus-information statement.

Below is a summary of the key steps of the Transactions. A step-by-step description of material events relating to the Transactions is set forth under “The Transactions.”

| • | GE will conduct the Internal Reorganization.

| • | Certain assets of GE Transportation will be sold by GE to Direct Sale Purchaser for a cash payment of $2.9 billion (the “Direct Sale Purchase Price”). Direct Sale Purchaser will assume certain liabilities of GE Transportation in connection with this purchase. Wabtec and the other Borrowers entered into the Credit Agreement on June 8, 2018, which includes (i) a $1.2 billion unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), which replaced Wabtec’s previous revolving credit facility, (ii) a $350.0 million refinancing term loan (the “Refinancing Term Loan”), which refinanced Wabtec’s previous term loan, and (iii) a $400.0 million delayed draw term loan (the “Delayed Draw Term Loan”). Wabtec also obtained commitments (the “Bridge Commitments”) in respect of a bridge loan facility (the “Bridge Loan Facility”) in an amount not to exceed $2.5 billion. On September 14, 2018, in accordance with the Commitment Letter, the Bridge Commitments were permanently reduced to $0 in connection with Wabtec’s issuance of $500 million aggregate principal amount of its Floating Rate Senior Notes due 2021 (the “Floating Rate Notes”), $750 million aggregate principal amount of its 4.150% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “2024 Notes”) and $1.25 billion aggregate principal amount of its 4.700% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “2028 Notes,” and, together with the Floating Rate Notes and the 2024 Notes, the “New Wabtec Notes”). The New Wabtec Notes were issued pursuant to the Indenture, dated August 8, 2013 (the “Base Indenture”), between Wabtec and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by the Second Supplemental Indenture, dated November 3, 2016 (the “Second Supplemental Indenture”), between Wabtec, the subsidiary guarantors party thereto and the Trustee, and the Ninth Supplemental Indenture, dated September 14, 2018 (the “Ninth Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture and the Second Supplemental Indenture, the “New Wabtec Notes Indenture”), between Wabtec, the subsidiary guarantors party thereto and the Trustee. Wabtec will use funds available under the Delayed Draw Term Loan and the proceeds from the issuance of the New Wabtec Notes to pay the Direct Sale Purchase Price.

| • | GE and its subsidiaries will transfer the SpinCo Business to SpinCo and its subsidiaries (to the extent not already held by SpinCo and its subsidiaries) in the SpinCo Transfer.

| • | In connection with the SpinCo Transfer, SpinCo will issue to GE additional shares of SpinCo common stock. Following this issuance of additional shares to GE, GE will own 8,700,000,000 shares of SpinCo common stock, or such other amount as GE shall determine with Wabtec’s consent, which will constitute all of the outstanding stock of SpinCo.

| • | GE will effect the Distribution by distributing on a pro rata basis all of the Distribution Shares to GE stockholders as of the record date for the Distribution. GE will deliver the Distribution Shares to the exchange agent, who will hold such shares for the benefit of GE stockholders. GE has the option, however, to effect the Distribution pursuant to a split-off. In the event GE elects to effect the Distribution pursuant to a split-off, GE would offer to holders of GE common stock the right to exchange all or a portion of their GE common stock for a number of Distribution Shares (which, in the aggregate, may be less than all of the Distribution Shares) at a discount to the implied value of the

TABLE OF CONTENTS

SpinCo common stock (based on the per-share value of Wabtec common stock multiplied by the exchange ratio set forth in the Merger Agreement), subject to proration if the GE stockholders have validly tendered more shares of GE common stock than GE is offering to accept for exchange (the “GE Exchange Offer”). In the event the GE Exchange Offer is consummated, GE would distribute the remaining Distribution Shares, if any, on a pro rata basis to GE stockholders whose shares of GE common stock remain outstanding after the consummation of the GE Exchange Offer.

| • | Immediately after the Distribution, Merger Sub will merge with and into SpinCo, whereby the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease and SpinCo will continue as the surviving company and as a wholly owned subsidiary of Wabtec. In the Merger, each share of SpinCo common stock will be converted into the right to receive a number of shares of Wabtec common stock based on the exchange ratio set forth in the Merger Agreement, as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “The Merger Agreement—Merger Consideration.” Upon consummation of the Merger and calculated based on Wabtec’s outstanding common stock immediately prior to the Merger on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, 50.1% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock would be held collectively by GE and pre-Merger holders of GE common stock (with approximately 9.9% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock expected to be held by GE) and 49.9% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock would be held by pre-Merger Wabtec stockholders. The shares held by GE will be subject to GE’s obligations under (x) the Tax Matters Agreement to sell a number of shares of Wabtec common stock within two years of the Distribution Date (as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Other Agreements—Tax Matters Agreement”) and (y) the Shareholders Agreement to sell, subject to limited exceptions, all of the shares of Wabtec common stock GE beneficially owns within three years of the closing date of the Merger and prior thereto, to vote all of such shares in the proportion required under the Shareholders Agreement (as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Other Agreements—Shareholders Agreement”).

What is the effect of calculations being presented on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis?

Where calculations are presented in this prospectus-information statement on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, such calculations reflect a number of outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock that will be higher than the number of shares of Wabtec common stock actually outstanding at the relevant time, which variance may affect the actual percentages upon consummation of the Merger. In addition, in those instances, references to “Wabtec stockholders” owning 49.9% of the outstanding Wabtec common stock assume that the holders of instruments convertible into or exercisable for Wabtec common stock are the owners of the underlying Wabtec common stock and, with limited exceptions, assume that Wabtec equity awards, including those that may be settled in cash, are instruments convertible into or exercisable for Wabtec common stock.

What will Wabtec stockholders receive in connection with the Merger?

All shares of Wabtec common stock issued and outstanding immediately before the Merger will remain issued and outstanding immediately after the consummation of the Merger. Immediately after consummation of the Merger, and calculated on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, pre-Merger Wabtec stockholders will continue to own shares in Wabtec, which will include GE Transportation as it exists following the Separation, constituting 49.9% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock.

Wabtec stockholders will not receive separate merger consideration as part of the Merger and no additional shares of Wabtec common stock will be issued to Wabtec stockholders pursuant to the Merger. Wabtec stockholders will receive the commercial benefit of Wabtec’s ownership of GE Transportation as it exists following consummation of the Separation. Wabtec stockholders will thus hold an interest in a diversified, global company that is better positioned to meet anticipated growth, including with respect to intelligence and network optimization products and services, and to capitalize on increased opportunities for cross-selling and the provision of aftermarket services, with significant adjusted EBITDA and revenue growth opportunities, strong forecasted future cash flows, anticipated tax benefits, and additional executive management talent. See “Wabtec’s Reasons for the Transactions.”

As a result of the Transactions, Wabtec stockholders’ ownership of Wabtec common stock will also mean that they own an interest in a company with increased levels of indebtedness. Wabtec and the other Borrowers

entered into the Credit Agreement on June 8, 2018, which includes (i) a $1.2 billion Revolving Credit Facility, (ii) a $350.0 million Refinancing Term Loan and (iii) a $400.0 million Delayed Draw Term Loan. Wabtec also obtained Bridge Commitments in respect of the Bridge Loan Facility in an amount not to exceed $2.5 billion. On September 14, 2018, in accordance with the Commitment Letter, the Bridge Commitments were permanently reduced to $0 in connection with Wabtec’s issuance of $500 million aggregate principal amount of the Floating Rate Notes, $750 million aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Notes and $1.25 billion aggregate principal amount of the 2028 Notes. Wabtec will use funds available under the Delayed Draw Term Loan and the proceeds from the issuance of the New Wabtec Notes to pay the Direct Sale Purchase Price. The Credit Agreement is expected to have approximately $812 million of unused availability immediately following consummation of the Transactions. In addition, the Credit Agreement contains an uncommitted accordion feature allowing Wabtec to request, in an aggregate amount not to exceed $600.0 million, increases to the borrowing commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility or a new incremental term loan commitment. See “Debt Financing.”

What are the principal adverse effects of the Transactions to Wabtec stockholders?

Following the consummation of the Transactions, Wabtec stockholders will participate in a company that holds GE Transportation as it exists following the Separation, but their percentage interest in Wabtec will be diluted.

Immediately after consummation of the Merger, pre-Merger Wabtec stockholders are expected to own no more than 49.9% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock, calculated on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis. Therefore, the voting power represented by the shares of Wabtec common stock held by pre-Merger Wabtec stockholders will be lower immediately following the Merger than immediately prior to the Merger. In addition, the issuance of shares of Wabtec common stock pursuant to the Merger may negatively affect the market price of Wabtec common stock.

In addition, if GE elects to effect the Distribution pursuant to a split-off, the GE stockholders that participate in the GE Exchange Offer will be exchanging their shares of GE common stock for a number of Distribution Shares at a discount to the implied value of the SpinCo common stock (based on the per share value of Wabtec common stock multiplied by the exchange ratio set forth in the Merger Agreement) subject to proration if the GE stockholders have validly tendered more shares of GE common stock than GE is offering to accept for exchange. The existence of a discount may negatively affect the market price of Wabtec common stock. See “Risk Factors” for a further discussion of the material risks associated with the Transactions.

Further, Wabtec will use funds available under the Delayed Draw Term Loan and the proceeds from the issuance of the New Wabtec Notes to pay the Direct Sale Purchase Price. This additional indebtedness could materially and adversely affect the liquidity, results of operations and financial condition of Wabtec. Wabtec also expects to incur significant one-time costs in connection with the Transactions, which may have an adverse impact on Wabtec’s liquidity, cash flows and operating results in the periods in which they are incurred. Finally, Wabtec’s management will be required to devote a significant amount of time and attention to the process of integrating the operations of Wabtec’s business and GE Transportation, as it exists following the Separation. If Wabtec management is not able to manage the integration process effectively, or if any significant business activities are interrupted as a result of the integration process, Wabtec’s business could suffer and its stock price may decline.

What is the estimated total value of the consideration to be paid by Wabtec in the Transactions?

Wabtec will pay GE $2.9 billion in cash as consideration for the Direct Sale. Subject to adjustment under certain circumstances as set forth in the Merger Agreement, Wabtec will issue approximately 98.4 million shares of Wabtec common stock in the Merger. Based upon the reported closing sale price of $ per share for Wabtec common stock on the NYSE on , 2018, the total value of the shares of Wabtec common stock to be issued by Wabtec in the Merger would be approximately $ and the cash to be received by GE in the Transactions, including in respect of the Direct Sale, would be approximately $2.9 billion plus any payments GE receives pursuant to the Tax Matters Agreement. The actual value of the Wabtec common stock to be issued in the Merger will depend on the market price of shares of Wabtec common stock at the time of the Merger.

Are there possible adverse effects on the value of Wabtec common stock ultimately to be received by GE stockholders?

The issuance of shares of Wabtec common stock pursuant to the Merger may affect negatively the market price of Wabtec common stock. The market price of Wabtec common stock also will be affected by the performance of the post-Transaction combined company and other risks associated with the Transactions.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

In addition, if GE elects to effect the Distribution pursuant to a split-off, the GE stockholders that participate in the GE Exchange Offer will be exchanging their shares of GE common stock for a number of Distribution Shares at a discount to the implied value of the SpinCo common stock (based on the per share value of Wabtec common stock multiplied by the exchange ratio set forth in the Merger Agreement) subject to proration if the GE stockholders have validly tendered more shares of GE common stock than GE is offering to accept for exchange. The existence of a discount may negatively affect the market price of Wabtec common stock.

These risks and other risk factors associated with the Transactions are described in more detail in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Risk Factors.”

How will the Transactions impact the future liquidity and capital resources of Wabtec?

Wabtec and the other Borrowers entered into the Credit Agreement on June 8, 2018, which includes (i) a $1.2 billion Revolving Credit Facility, (ii) a $350.0 million Refinancing Term Loan and (iii) a $400.0 million Delayed Draw Term Loan. Wabtec also obtained Bridge Commitments in respect of the Bridge Loan Facility in an amount not to exceed $2.5 billion. On September 14, 2018, in accordance with the Commitment Letter, the Bridge Commitments were permanently reduced to $0 in connection with Wabtec’s issuance of $500 million aggregate principal amount of the Floating Rate Notes, $750 million aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Notes and $1.25 billion aggregate principal amount of the 2028 Notes. Wabtec will use funds available under the Delayed Draw Term Loan and the proceeds from the issuance of the New Wabtec Notes to pay the Direct Sale Purchase Price. The Credit Agreement is expected to have approximately $812 million of unused availability immediately following consummation of the Transactions. In addition, the Credit Agreement contains an uncommitted accordion feature allowing Wabtec to request, in an aggregate amount not to exceed $600.0 million, increases to the borrowing commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility or a new incremental term loan commitment. See “Debt Financing.”

Wabtec’s debt financing could materially and adversely affect the liquidity, results of operations and financial condition of Wabtec. Wabtec also expects to incur significant one-time costs in connection with the Transactions, which may have an adverse impact on Wabtec’s liquidity, cash flows and operating results in the periods in which they are incurred. Finally, Wabtec management will be required to devote a significant amount of time and attention to the process of integrating the operations of Wabtec’s business and GE Transportation. If Wabtec management is not able to manage the integration process effectively, or if any significant business activities are interrupted as a result of the integration process, Wabtec’s business could suffer and its stock price may decline. See “Risk Factors” for a further discussion of the material risks associated with the Transactions.

Following the consummation of the Transactions, it is expected that post-Transaction GE Transportation will be owned by Wabtec through SpinCo, which will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Wabtec and will hold the SpinCo Business, and Direct Sale Purchaser, which will also be a wholly owned subsidiary of Wabtec and will hold the assets, potentially including the equity interests in certain pre-Transaction subsidiaries of GE that compose part of GE Transportation, acquired in the Direct Sale and the liabilities assumed in the Direct Sale. Nevertheless, because of the significant assets and operations represented by GE Transportation, Wabtec expects that, following the consummation of the Transaction, SpinCo, Direct Sale Purchaser, and/or other entities through which GE Transportation (as it exists following the Separation) is owned and operated may be required to become guarantors of the indebtedness of the Borrowers under the Credit Agreement, the New Wabtec Notes and Wabtec’s existing senior unsecured notes.

What is a modified Reverse Morris Trust transaction?

A Reverse Morris Trust transaction structure typically allows a parent company (here, GE) to divest a business (here, GE Transportation) tax-efficiently. In a typical Reverse Morris Trust transaction, the parent generally will receive a cash payment from the subsidiary to be spun off (an “exit dividend”), usually financed by new borrowings at the subsidiary level, after which the parent will divest stock of the subsidiary (here, SpinCo) through a dividend (a “spin-off”) or exchange offer (a “split-off”) of the subsidiary stock to parent stockholders. Immediately after the distribution, the subsidiary effects a merger with an unrelated company (here, Wabtec), in a transaction in which the unrelated company’s stockholders will hold less than 50% of the capital stock of the combined company immediately after the transaction. In this regard, the Transactions are similar to a traditional Reverse Morris Trust transaction because they include both GE’s distribution of SpinCo common stock in the Distribution and SpinCo’s substantially simultaneous merger with a subsidiary of Wabtec in the Merger.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

However, the Transactions are referred to in this document as a “modified” Reverse Morris Trust transaction for two reasons. First, unlike in a typical Reverse Morris Trust transaction, GE’s distribution of SpinCo common stock will be preceded by the Direct Sale of certain assets of GE Transportation (and an assumption of certain liabilities of GE Transportation) in exchange for a $2.9 billion cash payment to GE in lieu of an exit dividend from GE Transportation (which would be typical in a Reverse Morris Trust transaction). Second, while a distribution in a typical Reverse Morris Trust transaction would be tax-free to the parent and its stockholders, here the receipt of stock in the Distribution is intended to be tax-free to the GE stockholders but the transaction is intended to be taxable to GE. For further information, please see the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Distribution and the Merger to GE Stockholders.”

By utilizing the Direct Sale rather than having SpinCo incur debt and distribute an exit dividend to GE, the modified Reverse Morris Trust structure should result in tax benefits to Wabtec (including by avoiding certain ambiguities under the depreciation rules in U.S. federal income tax law that otherwise might be relevant), which will be shared between the parties (up to a cap) as realized by Wabtec after the Merger. The Direct Sale also should reduce administrative complexity and financing costs.

How do the Transactions impact Wabtec’s dividend policy?

The Transactions are not expected to affect Wabtec’s dividend policy. See “Summary Historical and Pro Forma Financial Data—Wabtec Dividend Policy” for a further discussion of Wabtec’s current dividend policy.

What will GE receive in the Transactions?

GE will receive a $2.9 billion cash payment as consideration for the Direct Sale. Furthermore, following consummation of the Merger, GE is expected to hold approximately 9.9% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, subject to GE’s obligation under (x) the Tax Matters Agreement to sell a number of shares of Wabtec common stock within two years of the Distribution Date (as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Other Agreements—Tax Matters Agreement”) and (y) the Shareholders Agreement to sell, subject to limited exceptions, all of the shares of Wabtec common stock GE beneficially owns within three years of the closing date of the Merger (as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Other Agreements—Shareholders Agreement”).

What will GE stockholders receive in the Transactions?

Following the Separation, GE will distribute all of the Distribution Shares to the holders of GE common stock. Specifically, GE will effect the Distribution by distributing on a pro rata basis all of the Distribution Shares to GE stockholders as of the record date for the Distribution. GE will deliver the Distribution Shares to the exchange agent, who will hold such shares for the benefit of GE stockholders. GE stockholders will not be able to trade shares of SpinCo common stock during this period or at any time before or after the consummation of the Merger. In the Merger, each share of SpinCo common stock will be converted into the right to receive a number of shares of Wabtec common stock based on the exchange ratio set forth in the Merger Agreement. The exchange ratio will be determined prior to the closing of the Merger based on the number of shares of Wabtec common stock on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, on the one hand, and the number of shares of SpinCo common stock, on the other hand, in each case outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, such that the stockholders of SpinCo (including GE) will own shares of Wabtec common stock representing 50.1% of the shares of Wabtec common stock outstanding immediately following the Merger on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis. As described in the Merger Agreement, the exchange ratio equals the quotient of (a) the aggregate number of shares of Wabtec common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis multiplied by the quotient of 50.1% divided by 49.9%, divided by (b) the number of shares of SpinCo common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger.

Based on the number of shares of GE common stock outstanding and the number of shares of Wabtec common stock outstanding, calculated on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, in each case as of November 1, 2018, and assuming that GE distributes 80.25% of the outstanding shares of SpinCo common stock to GE stockholders in the Distribution, if the Merger had occurred on November 1, 2018, a GE stockholder

TABLE OF CONTENTS

would have received 1 share of Wabtec common stock for every approximately 110.2 shares of GE common stock held by such GE stockholder on the record date for the Distribution (approximately 0.00907 shares of Wabtec common stock for each share of GE common stock).

GE has the option, however, to effect the Distribution pursuant to a split-off. In the event GE elects to effect the Distribution pursuant to a split-off, GE would offer to holders of GE common stock the right to exchange all or a portion of their GE common stock for a number of Distribution Shares (which, in the aggregate, may be less than all of the Distribution Shares) at a discount to the implied value of the SpinCo common stock (based on the per-share value of Wabtec common stock multiplied by the exchange ratio set forth in the Merger Agreement), subject to proration if the GE stockholders have validly tendered more shares of GE common stock than GE is offering to accept for exchange. In the event the GE Exchange Offer is consummated, GE would distribute the remaining Distribution Shares, if any, on a pro rata basis to GE stockholders whose shares of GE common stock remain outstanding after the consummation of the GE Exchange Offer.

Are there any conditions to the consummation of the Transactions?

Yes. The consummation of the Transactions is subject to a number of conditions, including:

| • | the approval by Wabtec stockholders of the Share Issuance;

| • | the approval by Wabtec stockholders of the Wabtec Charter Amendment;

| • | the termination or expiration of the applicable waiting period under the HSR Act;

| • | the taking, making or obtaining of all material actions by, consents or approvals of, or in respect of or filings with any governmental authority required to permit the Transactions;

| • | the effectiveness under the Securities Act of SpinCo’s registration statement on Form 10 or such Form(s) as shall be required under applicable SEC rules and Wabtec’s registration statement on Form S-4, and the absence of any stop order issued by the SEC or any pending proceeding before the SEC seeking a stop order with respect thereto;

| • | the receipt of the GE Tax Opinions and the Wabtec Tax Opinion by GE and Wabtec, respectively;

| • | the receipt of the Direct Sale Purchase Price by GE;

| • | the completion of the various transaction steps contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the Separation Agreement, including the International Reorganization, the Direct Sale, the SpinCo Transfer and the Distribution; and

| • | other customary conditions.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, GE and SpinCo, on the one hand, and Wabtec and Merger Sub, on the other hand, may waive the satisfaction of the conditions to their respective obligations to consummate the Transactions. If Wabtec waives the satisfaction of a material condition to the consummation of the Transactions, Wabtec will evaluate the facts and circumstances at that time and re-solicit stockholder approval of the Share Issuance and the Wabtec Charter Amendment if required to do so by law or the rules of the NYSE.

This prospectus-information statement describes these conditions in more detail under “The Merger Agreement—Conditions to the Merger.”

When will the Transactions be completed?

The Transactions are expected to be completed by early 2019, subject to customary closing conditions, as described in this prospectus-information statement. However, it is possible that the Transactions could be completed at an earlier time, at a later time or not at all. The Merger Agreement provides that GE or Wabtec may terminate the Merger Agreement if the Merger is not consummated on or before May 20, 2019 (the one-year anniversary of the date of the Merger Agreement) subject to extension to August 20, 2019 (the fifteen-month anniversary of the date of the Merger Agreement), upon either Wabtec’s or GE’s written request, if the only reason that the Transactions have not closed is due to certain conditions relating to regulatory approvals having not yet been satisfied. For a discussion of the conditions to consummate of the Transactions and the circumstances under which the Merger Agreement may be terminated by the parties, see “The Merger Agreement—Conditions to the Merger” and “The Merger Agreement—Termination,” respectively.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Are there risks associated with the Transactions?

Yes. The material risks and uncertainties associated with the Transactions are discussed in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Risk Factors” and the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Cautionary Statement on Forward-Looking Statements.” Those risks include, among others, the possibility that the Transactions will not be completed on the contemplated timeline or at all, the possibility that integration may not be successful or anticipated benefits of the Transactions may not be realized, uncertainty about the impact of the Transactions and related costs on the value of Wabtec common stock, the impact of reduced ownership and voting power for existing holders of Wabtec common stock, the impact of increased leverage on Wabtec’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, and the possibility that Wabtec may be unable to provide certain benefits, services and resources to GE Transportation that historically have been provided by GE.

What stockholder approvals are needed in connection with the Transactions?

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Wabtec agreed to hold a special meeting of its stockholders for the purpose of voting upon the following proposals: (i) to authorize the issuance of Wabtec common stock in the Merger (the “Share Issuance”) and (ii) to amend the Wabtec Charter to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 200 million to 500 million (the “Wabtec Charter Amendment”), the approvals of which are required to complete the Transactions. At a special meeting held on November 14, 2018, Wabtec stockholders approved the Share Issuance and the Wabtec Charter Amendment.

Where will the Wabtec shares to be issued in the Merger be listed?

Wabtec common stock is listed on the NYSE under the symbol “WAB.” After the consummation of the Transactions, all shares of Wabtec common stock issued in the Merger, and all other outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock, will continue to be listed on the NYSE and trade under the same symbol.

Will there be any change to the Wabtec Board or executive officers of Wabtec after the consummation of the Transactions?

Yes. In connection with the Transactions, the size of the Wabtec Board will be increased to include three additional directors, each of whom is required to be independent as defined in the listing standards of the NYSE, to be designated as nominees by GE (subject to the nominees being reasonably acceptable to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Wabtec Board), effective at the time of closing of the Merger. The Merger Agreement provides that, at the direction of GE, the GE designees will be assigned among the Wabtec Board’s classes of directors so that one GE designee is appointed to the class of directors that is up for reelection at each of the first three annual meetings of Wabtec stockholders that occurs after the closing of the Merger. Additionally, in certain circumstances (see “The Merger Agreement—Post-Closing Wabtec Board of Directors and Officers”), the Wabtec Board will take all actions necessary to include the GE designee up for reelection at the first annual meeting of Wabtec stockholders that occurs after the closing of the Merger as nominee for the Wabtec Board at such annual meeting, to recommend that Wabtec stockholders vote in favor of the GE designee and to support the election of the GE designee at such annual meeting. The executive officers of Wabtec immediately prior to consummation of the Merger are generally expected to be the executive officers of Wabtec immediately following consummation of the Merger, with Albert J. Neupaver remaining as Wabtec’s executive chairman and Raymond T. Betler remaining as Wabtec’s president and CEO. Following consummation of the Transactions, Stéphane Rambaud-Measson will become president and CEO of Wabtec’s Transit Segment and Rafael O. Santana, president and CEO of GE Transportation, will become president and CEO of Wabtec’s Freight Segment.

Do GE stockholders have to vote to approve the Transactions?

No. GE stockholders are not required to vote on the proposed Transactions. GE is not asking its stockholders for a proxy, and GE stockholders are requested not to send a proxy to GE.

Did any Wabtec stockholders agree to vote for the Share Issuance and the Wabtec Charter Amendment?

Yes. Certain stockholders, directors and officers of Wabtec beneficially owning approximately 10.9% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock entered into a Voting Agreement with GE under which these persons agreed to vote in favor of the Share Issuance proposal and the Wabtec Charter Amendment proposal. The Voting Agreement terminated on November 14, 2018 following the approval of the Share Issuance and the Wabtec Charter Amendment by Wabtec stockholders. See “Other Agreements—The Voting Agreement.”

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Can Wabtec stockholders dissent and require appraisal of their shares?

No.

Will the instruments that govern the rights of Wabtec stockholders with respect to their shares of Wabtec common stock after the consummation of the Transactions be different from those that govern the rights of current Wabtec stockholders?

No. The only change is that the number of authorized shares of common stock has been increased from 200 million to 500 million. The rights of Wabtec stockholders with respect to their shares of Wabtec common stock after the consummation of the Transactions will otherwise continue.

Where can I find more information about Wabtec and GE Transportation?

Wabtec and GE stockholders can find more information about Wabtec and GE Transportation in “Information on Wabtec” and “Information on GE Transportation” and from the various sources described in “Where You Can Find More Information; Incorporation by Reference.”

Questions and Answers for GE Stockholders

Why am I receiving this document?

You are receiving this prospectus-information statement because you are a holder of GE common stock. If you are a holder of GE common stock as of the close of business on , which is the record date of the Distribution, you will be entitled to receive a number of shares of SpinCo common stock with respect to each share of GE common stock that you held as of the close of business on such date, in accordance with a distribution ratio to be determined by GE prior to the Distribution.

Each issued and outstanding share of SpinCo common stock will be converted in the Merger into the right to receive a number of shares of Wabtec common stock based on the exchange ratio set forth in the Merger Agreement, as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “The Merger Agreement—Merger Consideration.” This prospectus-information statement will help you understand the Transactions and your investment in Wabtec after the Merger.

What will GE stockholders be entitled to receive pursuant to the Distribution and the Merger?

It is currently expected that approximately 6,981,750,000 shares of SpinCo common stock will be distributed to GE stockholders in connection with the Distribution, and, pursuant to the Merger, each share of SpinCo common stock will be converted into the right to receive a number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Wabtec common stock equal to the exchange ratio set forth in the Merger Agreement. The exchange ratio will be determined prior to the closing of the Merger based on the number of shares of Wabtec common stock on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, on the one hand, and the number of shares of SpinCo common stock, on the other hand, in each case outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, such that the stockholders of SpinCo (including GE) will own shares of Wabtec common stock representing 50.1% of the shares of Wabtec common stock outstanding immediately following the Merger on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis. As described in the Merger Agreement, the exchange ratio equals the quotient of (a) the aggregate number of shares of Wabtec common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis multiplied by the quotient of 50.1% divided by 49.9%, divided by (b) the number of shares of SpinCo common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger.

As a result, if the Merger had occurred on November 1, 2018, a GE stockholder would have received 1 share of Wabtec common stock for every approximately 110.2 shares of GE common stock held by such GE stockholder on the record date for the Distribution (approximately 0.00907 shares of Wabtec common stock for each share of GE common stock). The actual number of shares of Wabtec common stock that GE stockholders will receive with respect to each share of GE common stock will be determined based on the number of shares of GE common stock outstanding on the record date and the number of shares of Wabtec common stock outstanding, calculated on fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, as of the effective time of the Merger. Therefore, the actual number of shares of Wabtec common stock that GE stockholders will be entitled to receive in the Merger may be higher or lower if the number of outstanding shares of GE common stock and Wabtec common stock, calculated on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, changes for any reason.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Based upon the reported closing sale price of $ per share for Wabtec common stock on the NYSE on , 2018, the approximate value that holders of GE common stock will receive in the Merger will equal $ billion in the aggregate and $ per share of GE common stock they own on , 2018. However, any change in the market value of Wabtec common stock at the effective time of the Merger, the number of shares of Wabtec common stock, calculated on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, outstanding at the effective time of the Merger or the number of shares of GE common stock outstanding and entitled to receive SpinCo common stock in the Distribution will cause the estimated per share value GE stockholders receive in the Merger to change. Also, those GE stockholders who would otherwise receive a fractional share of Wabtec common stock pursuant to the Merger may receive a different per share value with respect to fractional shares when those fractional shares are liquidated by the exchange agent. See “The Merger Agreement—Merger Consideration.”

Will fractional shares of Wabtec common stock be issued in the Transactions?

No. No fractional shares of Wabtec common stock will be delivered to SpinCo stockholders. Following the Transactions, you will receive cash in lieu of any fractional Wabtec common stock that you would have otherwise received. See “The Merger Agreement—Merger Consideration.”

Has GE set a record date for the Distribution?

No. GE will publicly announce the record date for the Distribution when the record date has been determined. This announcement will be made prior to the completion of the Distribution and the Merger.

What will happen to the shares of GE common stock owned by GE stockholders?

Holders of GE common stock will retain all of their shares of GE common stock. The Distribution will not affect the number of outstanding shares of GE common stock or any rights of GE stockholders.

How will shares of Wabtec common stock be distributed to GE stockholders?

Holders of GE common stock on the record date for the Distribution will receive shares of Wabtec common stock in book-entry form. GE stockholders of record will receive additional information from the exchange agent shortly after the Distribution. Beneficial holders will receive information from their brokerage firms or other nominees.

Will GE stockholders who sell their shares of GE common stock shortly before the completion of the Distribution and the Merger still be entitled to receive shares of Wabtec common stock with respect to the shares of GE common stock that were sold?

It is currently expected that beginning one business day before the record date to be established for the Distribution, and continuing through the closing date of the Merger (or the previous business day, if the Merger closes before the opening of trading in GE common stock and Wabtec common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the closing date), there will be two markets in GE common stock on the New York Stock Exchange: a “regular way” market and an “ex-distribution” market.

If a GE stockholder sells shares of GE common stock in the “regular way” market under the ticker symbol “GE” during this time period, that GE stockholder will be selling both his or her shares of GE common stock and the right (represented by a “due-bill”) to receive shares of SpinCo common stock in the Distribution that will be converted into the right to receive shares of Wabtec common stock, and cash in lieu of fractional shares (if any), at the closing of the Merger. GE stockholders should consult their brokers before selling their shares of GE common stock in the “regular way” market during this time period to be sure they understand the effect of the New York Stock Exchange’s “due-bill” procedures. The “due-bill” process is not managed, operated or controlled by GE or Wabtec.

If a GE stockholder sells shares of GE common stock in the “ex-distribution” market during this time period, that GE stockholder will be selling only his or her shares of GE common stock, and will retain the right to receive shares of SpinCo common stock in the Distribution that will be converted into the right to receive shares of Wabtec common stock, and cash in lieu of fractional shares (if any), at the closing of the Merger. It is currently expected that “ex-distribution” trades of GE common stock will settle within two business days after the closing date of the Merger and that if the Merger is not completed all trades in this “ex-distribution” market will be cancelled.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

After the closing date of the Merger, shares of GE common stock will no longer trade in this “ex-distribution” market, and shares of GE common stock that are sold in the “regular way” market will no longer reflect the right to receive shares of SpinCo common stock in the Distribution that will be converted into the right to receive shares of Wabtec common stock, and cash in lieu of fractional shares (if any), at the closing of the Merger.

May GE stockholders sell the shares of Wabtec common stock which they are entitled to receive in the Merger prior to receiving those shares of Wabtec common stock?

It is currently expected that beginning one business day before the record date to be established for the Distribution, and continuing through the closing date of the Merger (or the previous business day, if the Merger closes before the opening of trading in GE common stock and Wabtec common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the closing date), there will be two markets in Wabtec common stock on the New York Stock Exchange: a “regular way” market and a “when issued” market.

The “regular way” market will be the regular trading market for issued shares of Wabtec common stock under the ticker symbol “WAB.”

The “when issued” market will be a market for the shares of Wabtec common stock that will be issued to GE stockholders at the closing of the Merger. If a GE stockholder sells shares of Wabtec common stock in the “when issued” market during this time period, that GE stockholder will be selling his or her right to receive shares of SpinCo common stock in the Distribution that will be converted into the right to receive shares of Wabtec common stock, and cash in lieu of fractional shares (if any), at the closing of the Merger. It is currently expected that “when issued” trades of Wabtec common stock will settle within two business days after the closing date of the Merger and that if the Merger is not completed, all trades in this “when issued” market will be cancelled. After the closing date of the Merger, shares of Wabtec common stock will no longer trade in this “when issued” market.

Are GE stockholders required to do anything?

GE stockholders are not required to take any action to approve the Separation, the Distribution or the Merger. However, GE stockholders should carefully read this prospectus-information statement, which contains important information about the Separation, the Distribution, the Merger, GE Transportation and Wabtec. After the Merger, Wabtec will mail to holders of GE common stock as of the record date, who are entitled to receive shares of Wabtec common stock pursuant to the Merger, book-entry statements evidencing their ownership of Wabtec common stock, cash payments in lieu of fractional shares (if any) and related tax information, and other information regarding their receipt of shares of Wabtec common stock. Beneficial holders will receive information from their brokerage firms or other nominees.

GE STOCKHOLDERS WILL NOT BE REQUIRED TO SURRENDER THEIR SHARES OF GE COMMON STOCK IN THE DISTRIBUTION OR THE MERGER AND THEY SHOULD NOT RETURN THEIR GE STOCK CERTIFICATES. THE TRANSACTIONS WILL NOT RESULT IN ANY CHANGE IN GE STOCKHOLDERS’ OWNERSHIP OF GE COMMON STOCK FOLLOWING THE MERGER.

Transportation Systems Holdings Inc.
c/o General Electric Company
41 Farnsworth Street
Boston, MA 02210

Transportation Systems Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation, referred to in this prospectus-information statement as SpinCo, is a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of GE that was organized specifically for the purpose of housing the SpinCo Business and effecting the Merger. SpinCo has engaged in no business activities to date and it has no material assets or liabilities of any kind, other than those incident to its formation and in connection with the Transactions. Prior to the closing of the Distribution and the Direct Sale, GE and SpinCo will own, directly and, indirectly, GE Transportation. GE Transportation is a global technology leader and supplier to the railroad, mining, marine, stationary power and drilling industries.

The Transactions

GE, Wabtec, SpinCo and Merger Sub, entered into the Merger Agreement on May 20, 2018, and GE, SpinCo, Wabtec and Direct Sale Purchaser entered into the Separation Agreement on May 20, 2018, which together provide for the combination of Wabtec and GE Transportation through a modified Reverse Morris Trust transaction structure. In connection with the Separation of GE Transportation from the remaining business of GE, GE will conduct the Internal Reorganization.

In connection with the Direct Sale, certain assets of GE Transportation, potentially including the equity interests of certain pre-Transaction subsidiaries of GE that compose part of GE Transportation, will be sold to Direct Sale Purchaser for a cash payment of $2.9 billion, and Direct Sale Purchaser will assume certain liabilities of GE Transportation in connection with this purchase. Thereafter, GE will transfer the SpinCo Business to SpinCo and its subsidiaries (to the extent not already held by SpinCo and its subsidiaries) in the SpinCo Transfer, and SpinCo will issue to GE additional shares of SpinCo common stock. Following this issuance of additional SpinCo common stock to GE, GE will own 8,700,000,000 shares of SpinCo common stock, or such other amount as GE shall determine with Wabtec’s consent, which will constitute all of the outstanding stock of SpinCo.

GE will effect the Distribution by distributing on a pro rata basis all of the Distribution Shares to GE stockholders as of the record date for the Distribution. GE will deliver the Distribution Shares to the exchange agent, who will hold such shares for the benefit of GE stockholders. GE has the option, however, to effect the Distribution pursuant to a split-off. In the event GE elects to effect the Distribution pursuant to a split-off, GE would offer to holders of GE common stock the right to exchange all or a portion of their GE common stock for a number of Distribution Shares (which, in the aggregate, may be less than all of the Distribution Shares) at a discount to the implied value of the SpinCo common stock (based on the per-share value of Wabtec common stock multiplied by the exchange ratio set forth in the Merger Agreement), subject to proration if the GE stockholders have validly tendered more shares of GE common stock than GE is offering to accept for exchange. In the event the GE Exchange Offer is consummated, GE would distribute the remaining Distribution Shares, if any, on a pro rata basis to GE stockholders whose shares of GE common stock remain outstanding after the consummation of the GE Exchange Offer.

Immediately after the Distribution and on the closing date of the Merger, Merger Sub will merge with and into SpinCo, whereby the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease and SpinCo will continue as the surviving company and a wholly owned subsidiary of Wabtec. In the Merger, subject to adjustment in accordance with the Merger Agreement, each share of SpinCo common stock will be converted into the right to receive a number of shares of Wabtec common stock based on the exchange ratio set forth in the Merger Agreement. The exchange ratio will be determined prior to the closing of the Merger based on the number of shares of Wabtec common stock on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, on the one hand, and the number of shares of SpinCo common stock, on the other hand, in each case outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, such that the stockholders of SpinCo (including GE) will own shares of Wabtec common stock representing 50.1% of the shares of Wabtec common stock outstanding immediately following the Merger on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis. As described in the Merger Agreement, the exchange ratio equals the quotient of (a) the aggregate number of shares of Wabtec common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis multiplied by the quotient of 50.1% divided by 49.9%, divided by (b) the number of shares of SpinCo common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Upon consummation of the Merger and calculated based on Wabtec’s outstanding common stock immediately prior to the Merger on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, 50.1% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock would be held collectively by GE and pre-Merger holders of GE common stock (with approximately 9.9% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock expected to be held by GE) and 49.9% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock would be held by pre-Merger Wabtec stockholders. The shares held by GE will be subject to GE’s obligations under (x) the Tax Matters Agreement to sell a number of shares of Wabtec common stock within two years of the Distribution Date (as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Other Agreements—Tax Matters Agreement”) and (y) the Shareholders Agreement to sell, subject to limited exceptions, all of the shares of Wabtec common stock GE beneficially owns within three years of the closing date of the Merger and prior thereto, to vote all of such shares in the proportion required under the Shareholders Agreement (as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Other Agreements—Shareholders Agreement”).

Subject to adjustment under certain circumstances as set forth in the Merger Agreement, Wabtec will issue approximately 98.4 million shares of Wabtec common stock in the Merger. Based upon the reported closing sale price of $ per share for Wabtec common stock on the NYSE on , 2018, the total value of the shares of Wabtec common stock to be issued by Wabtec in the Merger would be approximately $ and the cash to be received by GE in the Transactions, including in respect of the Direct Sale, would be approximately $2.9 billion plus any payments GE receives pursuant to the Tax Matters Agreement. The actual value of the Wabtec common stock to be issued in the Merger will depend on the market price of shares of Wabtec common stock at the time of the Merger.

After the Merger, Wabtec will own and operate the SpinCo Business and the assets acquired in the Direct Sale. It is anticipated that SpinCo, which will be Wabtec’s wholly owned subsidiary, will hold the SpinCo Business and Direct Sale Purchaser, which will also be Wabtec’s wholly owned subsidiary, will hold the assets purchased and the liabilities assumed in connection with the Direct Sale. Together, SpinCo and Direct Sale Purchaser will own and operate post-Transaction GE Transportation. Wabtec will also continue its current businesses. All shares of Wabtec common stock, including those issued in the Merger, will be listed on the NYSE under Wabtec’s current trading symbol “WAB.”

Set forth below are diagrams that graphically illustrate, in simplified form, (i) the existing corporate structures, (ii) the corporate structures immediately following the Direct Sale, the SpinCo Transfer and the Distribution but before the Merger and (iii) the corporate structures immediately following the consummation of the Merger. A step-by-step description of material events relating to the Transactions is set forth under “The Transactions.”

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Structure following the Merger

After completion of all of the steps described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “The Transactions,” it is anticipated that SpinCo, which will be Wabtec’s wholly owned subsidiary, will hold the SpinCo Business and Direct Sale Purchaser, which will also be Wabtec’s wholly owned subsidiary, will hold the assets purchased and the liabilities assumed in connection with the Direct Sale. Together, SpinCo and Direct Sale Purchaser will own and operate the post-Transaction GE Transportation.

In connection with the Transactions, on the date of the Distribution, GE or its subsidiaries and SpinCo or the SpinCo Transferred Subsidiaries will enter into the Additional Agreements relating to, among other things, intellectual property, employee matters, tax matters, research and development and transition services. See “Other Agreements.”

Determination of Number of Shares of SpinCo Common Stock to be Distributed to GE Stockholders

Immediately prior to the Distribution, the total number of shares of SpinCo common stock outstanding will equal 8,700,000,000 shares or such other amount as GE shall determine with Wabtec’s consent. GE is expected to retain 19.75% of the outstanding shares of SpinCo common stock. Accordingly, assuming that there are outstanding 8,700,000,000 shares of SpinCo common stock immediately prior to the Distribution, the total number of shares of SpinCo common stock to be distributed to holders of GE common stock as a pro rata dividend will be equal to 6,981,750,000 shares. The actual number of shares of SpinCo common stock to be distributed to GE stockholders, and the actual number of shares of SpinCo common stock to be retained by GE, will be determined by GE prior to the Distribution. All shares of SpinCo common stock will be converted into the right to receive shares of Wabtec common stock at the effective time of the Merger. See “The Transactions—Determination of Number of Shares of SpinCo Common Stock to be Distributed to GE Stockholders.”

Based on the number of shares of GE common stock outstanding and the number of shares of Wabtec common stock outstanding, calculated on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, in each case as of November 1, 2018, and assuming that GE distributes 80.25% of the outstanding shares of SpinCo common stock to GE stockholders in the Distribution, if the Merger had occurred on November 1, 2018, a GE stockholder would have received 1 share of Wabtec common stock for every approximately 110.2 shares of GE common stock held by such GE stockholder on the record date for the Distribution (approximately 0.00907 shares of Wabtec common stock for each share of GE common stock).

Opinion of Wabtec’s Financial Advisor

Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”) rendered to the Wabtec Board its oral opinion, which was subsequently confirmed by delivery of a written opinion, dated May 20, 2018, that, as of the date of such written opinion and based upon and subject to the factors and assumptions as set forth in such written opinion, the Aggregate Consideration (as defined below) to be paid by Wabtec pursuant to the Merger Agreement was fair from a financial point of view to Wabtec. For purposes of Goldman Sachs’ financial analyses and opinion, the term “Aggregate Consideration” means (i) the Share Issuance, (ii) the Direct Sale Purchase Price, as adjusted pursuant to the Separation Agreement, and (iii) the payments relating to the Company Structure Benefits (as defined in the Tax Matters Agreement) pursuant to Section 13 of the Tax Matters Agreement (the “TMA Payments”).

The full text of the written opinion of Goldman Sachs, dated May 20, 2018, which sets forth assumptions made, procedures followed, matters considered and limitations on the review undertaken in connection with the opinion, is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to the registration statement of which this prospectus-information statement forms a part. Goldman Sachs provided advisory services and its opinion for the information and assistance of the Wabtec Board in connection with its consideration of the Transactions. The Goldman Sachs opinion is not a recommendation as to how any holder of shares of Wabtec common stock should vote with respect to the Share Issuance, the Wabtec Charter Amendment or any other matter. Pursuant to an engagement letter between Wabtec and Goldman Sachs, Wabtec has agreed to pay Goldman Sachs a transaction fee of $32 million plus a discretionary fee of up to $4 million, all of which is contingent upon consummation of the Transactions. See “The Transactions—Opinion of Wabtec’s Financial Advisor” for further information.

Debt Financing

On May 20, 2018, in connection with their entry into the Merger Agreement, Wabtec entered into the Commitment Letter with the Commitment Parties pursuant to which the Commitment Parties agreed to provide debt financing to Wabtec, including financing for the Direct Sale Purchase Price. Wabtec and the other Borrowers entered into the Credit Agreement on June 8, 2018, which includes (i) a $1.2 billion Revolving Credit Facility, (ii) a $350.0 million Refinancing Term Loan and (iii) a $400.0 million Delayed Draw Term Loan. Wabtec also obtained Bridge Commitments in respect of the Bridge Loan Facility in an amount not to exceed $2.5 billion. On September 14, 2018, in accordance with the Commitment Letter, the Bridge Commitments were permanently reduced to $0 in connection with Wabtec’s issuance of $500 million aggregate principal amount of the Floating Rate Notes, $750 million aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Notes and $1.25 billion aggregate principal amount of the 2028 Notes. Wabtec will use funds available under the Delayed Draw Term Loan and the proceeds from the issuance of the New Wabtec Notes to pay the Direct Sale Purchase Price. The Credit Agreement is expected to have approximately $812 million of unused availability immediately following consummation of the Transactions. See “Debt Financing” for further information.

Interests of GE’s and SpinCo’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Transactions

Directors and executive officers of GE or SpinCo who own shares of GE common stock will have the right to participate in the Distribution and the Merger on the same terms as other GE stockholders. Executive officers of SpinCo are eligible for incentive payments, accelerated vesting of equity awards and retirement benefits in connection with the Transactions. In addition, Wabtec is in the process of documenting the terms of an employment contract with Mr. Santana that will be entered into prior to the closing of the Merger and that will provide for Mr. Santana’s entitlement to base salary, annual bonus opportunity and equity incentive awards. See “The Transactions—Interests of GE’s and SpinCo’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Transactions” for further information.

Interests of Wabtec’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Transactions

Wabtec directors and executive officers have financial interests in the Transactions that are different from, or in addition to, the interests of Wabtec stockholders generally. The members of the Wabtec Board were aware of and considered these interests, among other matters, in deciding to approve the terms of the Merger Agreement and the Transactions, including the Merger, and in recommending to Wabtec stockholders that they vote to approve the Share Issuance and the Wabtec Charter Amendment. See “The Transactions—Interests of Wabtec’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Transactions” for further information.

Board of Directors and Management of Wabtec Following the Transactions

Following the consummation of the Distribution, Merger Sub will merge with and into SpinCo, whereby the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease and SpinCo will continue as the surviving company and a wholly owned

TABLE OF CONTENTS

subsidiary of Wabtec. Directors of Wabtec serving on the Wabtec Board immediately before the consummation of the Merger are expected to continue to serve as directors of Wabtec immediately following the closing of the Merger. In connection with the Transactions, the size of the Wabtec Board will be increased to include three additional directors, each of whom is required to be independent as defined in the listing standards of the NYSE, to be designated as nominees by GE (subject to the nominees being reasonably acceptable to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Wabtec Board), effective at the time of closing of the Merger. The Merger Agreement provides that, at the direction of GE, the GE designees will be assigned among the Wabtec Board’s classes of directors so that one GE designee is appointed to the class of directors that is up for reelection at each of the first three annual meetings of Wabtec stockholders that occurs after the closing of the Merger.

Additionally, in certain circumstances (see “The Merger Agreement – Post-Closing Wabtec Board of Directors and Officers”), the Wabtec Board will take all actions necessary to include the GE designee up for reelection at the first annual meeting of Wabtec stockholders that occurs after the closing of the Merger as nominee for the Wabtec Board at such annual meeting, to recommend that Wabtec stockholders vote in favor of the GE designee and to support the election of the GE designee at such annual meeting. The executive officers of Wabtec immediately prior to consummation of the Merger are generally expected to be the executive officers of Wabtec immediately following consummation of the Merger, with Albert J. Neupaver remaining as Wabtec’s executive chairman and Raymond T. Betler remaining as Wabtec’s president and CEO. Following consummation of the Transactions, Stéphane Rambaud-Measson will become president and CEO of Wabtec’s Transit Segment and Rafael O. Santana, president and CEO of GE Transportation, will become president and CEO of Wabtec’s Freight Segment.

Wabtec Stockholder Approval

At a special meeting held on November 14, 2018, Wabtec stockholders approved the Share Issuance and the Wabtec Charter Amendment, the approvals of which are required to complete the Transactions.

Wabtec Stockholders Meeting

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Wabtec agreed to call, give notice of, convene and hold a special meeting of its stockholders for the purpose of voting upon the proposals to approve the Share Issuance and the Wabtec Charter Amendment. The Wabtec Board called a special meeting of Wabtec stockholders, which was held on November 14, 2018, for Wabtec stockholders of record as of October 11, 2018. The definitive proxy statement was mailed to Wabtec stockholders on or about October 12, 2018. At the special meeting, Wabtec stockholders approved the Share Issuance and the Wabtec Charter Amendment.

Wabtec’s directors and executive officers held approximately 11.16% of the shares entitled to vote at Wabtec’s special meeting of stockholders as of August 1, 2018. SpinCo’s directors, executive officers and their affiliates did not own any shares of Wabtec common stock entitled to vote at Wabtec’s special meeting of stockholders as of August 1, 2018.

Certain stockholders, directors and officers of Wabtec beneficially owning approximately 10.9% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock entered into a Voting Agreement with GE under which these persons agreed to vote in favor of the Share Issuance proposal and the Wabtec Charter Amendment proposal. The Voting Agreement terminated on November 14, 2018 following the approval of the Share Issuance and the Wabtec Charter Amendment by Wabtec stockholders. See “Other Agreements—The Voting Agreement.”

Accounting Treatment and Considerations

Accounting Standard Codification 805, Business Combinations, requires the use of the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations. In applying the acquisition method, it is necessary to identify both the accounting acquiree and the accounting acquiror. In a business combination effected through an exchange of equity interests, such as the Merger, the entity that issues the interests (Wabtec, in this case) is generally the acquiring entity. In identifying the acquiring entity in a combination effected through an exchange of equity interests, however, all pertinent facts and circumstances must be considered, including the following:

Issuance of equity by Wabtec. Wabtec expects to issue approximately 98.4 million shares of Wabtec common stock in the Merger.

Incurrence of debt by Wabtec. Approximately $2.9 billion of indebtedness is expected to be incurred in connection with the Transactions to fund the Direct Sale. Following the consummation of the Transactions, it is expected that post-Transaction GE Transportation will be owned by Wabtec through SpinCo, which will be a

17

TABLE OF CONTENTS

wholly owned subsidiary of Wabtec and will hold the SpinCo Business, and Direct Sale Purchaser, which will also be a wholly owned subsidiary of Wabtec and will hold the assets, potentially including the equity interests in certain pre-Transaction subsidiaries of GE that compose part of GE Transportation, acquired in the Direct Sale and the liabilities assumed in the Direct Sale. Nevertheless, because of the significant assets and operations represented by GE Transportation, Wabtec expects that following the consummation of the Transaction, SpinCo, Direct Sale Purchaser, and/or other entities through which GE Transportation is owned and operated may be required to become guarantors of the indebtedness of the Borrowers under the Credit Agreement, the New Wabtec Notes and Wabtec’s existing senior unsecured notes.

The relative voting interests of Wabtec stockholders after the consummation of the Transactions. In this case and calculated on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, GE and pre-Merger holders of GE common stock will collectively hold 50.1% of the equity ownership and associated voting rights in Wabtec after the consummation of the Transactions (with approximately 9.9% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock expected to be held by GE) and 49.9% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock will be held by pre-Merger Wabtec stockholders. The shares held by GE will be subject to GE’s obligations under (x) the Tax Matters Agreement to sell a number of shares of Wabtec common stock within two years of the Distribution Date (as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Other Agreements—Tax Matters Agreement”) and (y) the Shareholders Agreement to sell, subject to limited exceptions, all of the shares of Wabtec common stock GE beneficially owns within three years of the closing date of the Merger and prior thereto, to vote all of such shares in the proportion required under the Shareholders Agreement (as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Other Agreements—Shareholders Agreement”).

The composition of the governing body of Wabtec after the consummation of the Transactions. The Wabtec Board currently consists of 12 directors. In connection with the Transactions, the size of the Wabtec Board will be increased to include three additional directors, each of whom is required to be independent as defined in the listing standards of the NYSE, to be designated as nominees by GE (subject to the nominees being reasonably acceptable to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Wabtec Board), effective at the time of closing of the Merger. The Merger Agreement provides that, at the direction of GE, the GE designees will be assigned among the Wabtec Board’s classes of directors so that one GE designee is appointed to the class of directors that is up for reelection at each of the first three annual meetings of Wabtec stockholders that occurs after the closing of the Merger. Additionally, in certain circumstances (see “Merger Agreement – Post-Closing Wabtec Board of Directors and Officers”), the Wabtec Board will take all actions necessary to include the GE designee up for reelection at the first annual meeting of Wabtec stockholders that occurs after the closing of the Merger as nominee for the Wabtec Board at such annual meeting, to recommend that Wabtec stockholders vote in favor of the GE designee and to support the election of the GE designee at such annual meeting.

The composition of the senior management of Wabtec after the consummation of the Transactions. The executive officers of Wabtec immediately prior to consummation of the Merger are generally expected to be the executive officers of Wabtec immediately following consummation of the Merger, with Albert J. Neupaver remaining as Wabtec’s executive chairman and Raymond T. Betler remaining as Wabtec’s president and CEO. Following consummation of the Transactions, Stéphane Rambaud-Measson will become president and CEO of Wabtec’s Transit Segment and Rafael O. Santana, president and CEO of GE Transportation, will become president and CEO of Wabtec’s Freight Segment.

Wabtec management has determined that Wabtec will be the accounting acquiror in the Merger based on the facts and circumstances outlined above and the analysis of the relevant GAAP guidance. Consequently, Wabtec will apply acquisition accounting to the assets and liabilities of GE Transportation acquired or assumed upon the consummation of the Direct Sale and the Merger. The historical financial statements of Wabtec for periods ended prior to the consummation of the Merger will reflect only the operations and financial condition of Wabtec. Subsequent to the consummation of the Merger, the financial statements of Wabtec will include the combined operations and financial condition of Wabtec and GE Transportation.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Regulatory Approvals

Under the HSR Act, the parties must file pre-merger notifications with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) and the Antitrust Division of the United States Department of Justice (“DOJ”) and observe specified waiting periods before consummating the Merger. Wabtec and GE each filed the requisite notification and report forms with the FTC and the DOJ on June 22, 2018. Wabtec and GE have each received a request for additional information (“second request”) from the DOJ. The second request is not an uncommon part of the regulatory review process under the HSR Act in respect of large transactions. The effect of the second request is to extend the waiting period imposed by the HSR Act until 30 days after Wabtec and GE have substantially complied with their respective request, unless that period is extended voluntarily by both parties or terminated sooner by the DOJ. Wabtec and GE will continue to cooperate fully with the DOJ as it reviews the proposed transaction. In addition to the expiration of the waiting period under the HSR Act, the parties have agreed to take, make or obtain all material actions by, consents or approvals of, or in respect of or filings with any governmental authority required to permit the consummation of the Merger, including the governmental authorizations to be sought in Austria, Brazil, Canada, Germany, Kazakhstan, Mexico, Pakistan, Russia, South Africa and Ukraine. The required waiting period in Canada has expired, and the parties have already obtained clearance from Austria, Germany, Kazakhstan, Russia, South Africa and Ukraine.

Federal Securities Law Consequences; Resale Restriction

Wabtec common stock issued in the Merger will not be subject to any restrictions on transfer arising under the Securities Act, except for shares of Wabtec common stock issued to any person who may be deemed to be an “affiliate” of Wabtec under the Securities Act.

No Appraisal or Dissenters’ Rights

None of the stockholders of Wabtec, Merger Sub, Direct Sale Purchaser, GE or SpinCo will be entitled to exercise appraisal rights or to demand payment for their shares in connection with the Transactions.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Distribution and the Merger to GE Stockholders

It is intended that the Distribution, together with certain related transactions, will qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(D) of the Code and a tax-free distribution within the meaning of Section 355(a) of the Code, and the Merger will qualify as a tax-free “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. On the basis that the Distribution and the Merger are so treated, U.S. Holders (as defined in “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Distribution and the Merger to GE Stockholders”) of GE common stock generally will not recognize gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes by reason of the Distribution or the Merger, except, in the case of the Merger, for any gain or loss recognized with respect to any cash received in lieu of a fractional share of Wabtec common stock. If the Distribution and/or the Merger fails to qualify for the intended tax treatment, GE stockholders will be subject to substantial U.S. federal income taxes.

The consummation of the Distribution, the Merger and the related transactions are conditioned upon the receipt of opinions of tax counsel to the effect that such transactions qualify for their intended tax treatment. An opinion of tax counsel neither binds the IRS nor precludes the IRS or the courts from adopting a contrary position.

The tax consequences to you of the Distribution and the Merger will depend on your particular circumstances. You should read the discussion in the section of this document entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Distribution and the Merger to GE Stockholders” and consult your own tax advisor for a full understanding of the tax consequences to you of the Distribution and the Merger.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Summary Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Data

The following summary unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are presented to illustrate the estimated effects of the Transactions described in this prospectus-information statement under “The Transactions.” The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2018, and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017 (collectively, the “Pro Forma Statements”) have been prepared in compliance with the requirements of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act using accounting policies in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The Pro Forma Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of Wabtec as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017, which are incorporated by reference herein from Wabtec’s current report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on September 10, 2018, Wabtec’s interim financial statements as of and for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2018, which are incorporated by reference herein from Wabtec’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC for the quarter ended September 30, 2018, and the audited combined financial statements of GE Transportation as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017 and GE Transportation’s interim financial statements as of and for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2018, which are, in each case, included elsewhere in this prospectus-information statement. GE Transportation’s historical financial statements included in this prospectus-information statement have been presented on a “carve-out” basis from GE’s consolidated financial statements using the historical results of operations, cash flows, assets and liabilities of GE Transportation and include allocations of corporate expenses from GE. These allocations reflect significant assumptions, and the financial statements do not fully reflect what GE Transportation’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows would have been had it been a stand-alone company during the periods presented. As a result, historical financial information is not necessarily indicative of GE Transportation’s future results of operations, financial position or cash flows. The note disclosure requirements of annual consolidated financial statements provide additional disclosures to that required for pro forma condensed combined financial information.

The unaudited Pro Forma Statements give effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred on January 1, 2017, for the purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017. The unaudited Pro Forma Statements give effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred on September 30, 2018, for the purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet. In the opinion of Wabtec’s management, these Pro Forma Statements include all material adjustments necessary to be in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act. The Pro Forma Statements are presented for illustrative purposes only and may not be indicative of the results of operations that would have occurred if the events reflected therein had been in effect on the dates indicated or the results which may be obtained in the future. In preparing the Pro Forma Statements, no adjustments have been made to reflect the potential operating synergies and administrative cost savings or the costs of integration activities that could result from the combination of Wabtec and GE Transportation. Actual amounts recorded upon consummation of the Transactions will differ from the Pro Forma Statements, and the differences may be material. See “Where You Can Find More Information; Incorporation by Reference,” “Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Consolidated Financial Statements” and the interim combined financial statements of GE Transportation and the notes thereto and audited combined financial statements of GE Transportation and notes thereto, which are, in each case, included elsewhere in this prospectus-information statement.

Historical Common Stock Market Price and Dividend Data

Historical market price data for SpinCo and GE Transportation has not been presented as GE Transportation is currently operated by GE and SpinCo is a wholly owned subsidiary of GE and there is no established trading market in SpinCo common stock. Shares of SpinCo common stock do not currently trade separately from GE common stock.

Shares of Wabtec common stock currently trade on the NYSE under the symbol “WAB.” There were holders of record of Wabtec common stock at the close of business on , 2018. A number of Wabtec stockholders hold their shares in “street name;” therefore Wabtec believes that there are substantially more beneficial owners of Wabtec common stock.

Wabtec Dividend Policy

Wabtec currently intends to continue paying dividends on a quarterly basis, although the declaration of any future dividends will be determined by the Wabtec Board and will depend on many factors, including available cash, estimated cash needs, earnings, financial condition, operating results, and capital requirements, as well as limitations in Wabtec’s contractual agreements, applicable law, regulatory constraints, industry practice and other business considerations that the Wabtec Board considers relevant. Wabtec’s ability to declare and pay future dividends on Wabtec common stock may be restricted by the provisions of the DGCL and covenants in Wabtec’s then-existing indebtedness arrangements.

| • | the effectiveness under the Securities Act of (i) SpinCo’s registration statement on Form 10 or such Form(s) as shall be required under applicable SEC rules in connection with the Distribution and (ii) Wabtec’s registration statement on Form S-4 in connection with the Merger, and, in each case, the absence of any stop order issued by the SEC or any pending proceeding before the SEC seeking a stop order with respect thereto;

| • | the receipt of the GE Tax Opinions and the Wabtec Tax Opinion by GE and Wabtec, respectively;

| • | the receipt of the Direct Sale Purchase Price by GE;

| • | the completion of the various transaction steps contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the Separation Agreement, including the International Reorganization, the Direct Sale, the SpinCo Transfer and the Distribution; and

| • | other customary conditions.

There is no assurance that the Transactions will be consummated on the terms or timeline currently contemplated, or at all. Wabtec and GE have and will continue to expend time and resources of management and to incur legal, advisory and financial services fees related to the Transactions and the related financing for the Transactions. These expenses must be paid regardless of whether the Transactions are consummated.

Governmental authorities may not approve the Transactions, may impose conditions to the approval of the Transactions or may require changes to the terms of the Transactions. Any such conditions or changes could have the effect of delaying completion of the Transactions, imposing costs on or limiting the revenues of the combined company following the Transactions or otherwise reducing the anticipated benefits of the Transactions. Any condition or change which results in a material adverse effect on GE and/or Wabtec under the Merger Agreement may cause GE and/or Wabtec to restructure or terminate the Transactions.

If completed, the integration of Wabtec and GE Transportation may not be successful or the anticipated benefits from the Transactions may not be realized.

After the consummation of the Transactions, Wabtec will have significantly more sales, assets and employees than it did prior to the consummation of the Transactions. During the period in which transition services are

26

TABLE OF CONTENTS

provided to Wabtec by GE, SpinCo will have a continued dependence on the provision of services from GE, including with respect to research and development and information technology infrastructure. The integration process will require Wabtec to expend capital and significantly expand the scope of its operations. Wabtec management will be required to devote a significant amount of time and attention to the process of integrating the operations of Wabtec’s business and GE Transportation. There is a significant degree of difficulty and management involvement inherent in that process. These difficulties include, but are not limited to:

| • | integrating GE Transportation while carrying on the ongoing operations of Wabtec’s business;

| • | managing a significantly larger company than before the consummation of the Transactions;

| • | the possibility of faulty assumptions underlying Wabtec’s expectations regarding the integration process;

| • | coordinating a greater number of diverse businesses located in a greater number of geographic locations;

| • | operating in geographic markets or industry sectors in which Wabtec may have little or no experience;

| • | complying with laws of new jurisdictions in which Wabtec has not previously operated;

| • | integrating business systems and models;

| • | attracting and retaining the necessary personnel associated with GE Transportation following the consummation of the Transactions;

| • | creating and implementing uniform standards, controls, procedures, policies and information systems and controlling the costs associated with such matters; and

| • | integrating information technology, purchasing, accounting, finance, sales, billing, payroll and regulatory compliance systems, and meeting external reporting requirements following the consummation of the Transactions.

All of the risks associated with the integration process could be exacerbated by the fact that Wabtec may not have a sufficient number of employees with the requisite expertise to integrate the businesses or to operate Wabtec’s business after the Transactions. Failure to hire or retain employees with the requisite skills and knowledge to run Wabtec after the Transactions may have a material adverse effect on Wabtec’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Even if Wabtec is able to combine the two business operations successfully, it may not be possible to realize the benefits of the increased sales volume and other benefits, including the synergies that are expected to result from the Transactions, or realize these benefits within the time frame that is anticipated. For example, the elimination of duplicative costs may not be possible or may take longer than anticipated, or the benefits from the Transactions may be offset by costs incurred or delays in integrating the companies. In addition, the quantification of synergies expected to result from the Transactions is based on significant estimates and assumptions that are subjective in nature and inherently uncertain. The amount of synergies actually realized following the Transactions, if any, and the time periods in which any such synergies are realized, could differ materially from the expected synergies discussed in this prospectus-information statement, regardless of whether Wabtec is able to combine the two business operations successfully.

If Wabtec is unable to successfully integrate GE Transportation or if it is unable to realize the anticipated synergies and other benefits of the Transactions, there could be a material adverse effect on Wabtec’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

The Merger Agreement contains provisions that may discourage other companies from trying to acquire Wabtec.

The Merger Agreement contains provisions that may discourage a third party from submitting prior to the closing of the Transactions a business combination proposal to Wabtec that might result in greater value to Wabtec stockholders than the Transactions. The Merger Agreement generally prohibits Wabtec from soliciting any alternative transaction proposal, although the Wabtec Board may, subject to certain limitations, withdraw or modify its recommendation regarding the Transactions in the event it receives an unsolicited alternative transaction proposal that the Wabtec Board determines is superior to the Transactions. See “The Merger Agreement—No Solicitation” and “—Board Recommendation.” In addition, before the Wabtec Board may

27

TABLE OF CONTENTS

withdraw or modify its recommendation regarding the Transactions, GE has the opportunity to negotiate with Wabtec to modify the terms of the Transactions in response to any competing acquisition proposals. See “The Merger Agreement—Board Recommendation.” If the Merger Agreement is terminated by Wabtec or GE in certain circumstances, Wabtec may be obligated to pay a termination fee to GE, which would represent an additional cost for a potential third party seeking a business combination with Wabtec. See “The Merger Agreement—Termination Fee and Expenses.”

Failure to complete the Transactions could adversely affect the market price of Wabtec common stock as well as its business, financial condition and results of operations.

If the Transactions are not completed for any reason, the price of Wabtec common stock may decline, or the company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be impacted: to the extent that the market price of Wabtec common stock reflects positive market assumptions that the Transactions will be completed and the related benefits will be realized; based on significant expenses, such as legal, advisory and financial services which generally must be paid regardless of whether the Transactions are completed; based on potential disruption of the business of Wabtec and distraction of its workforce and management team; and based on the requirement in the Merger Agreement that, under certain circumstances, Wabtec must pay GE a termination fee or reimburse GE for expenses relating to the Transactions.

Wabtec will incur significant costs related to the Transactions that could have a material adverse effect on its liquidity, cash flows and operating results.

Wabtec expects to incur significant, one-time costs in connection with the Transactions, some of which will be capitalized, including approximately $35.0 million of financing-related fees, approximately $60.0 million of transaction-related costs (including advisory, legal, accounting and other professional fees) and approximately $88.0 million of transition and integration-related costs (a portion of which will be incremental capital spending), which Wabtec management believes are necessary to realize the anticipated synergies from the Transactions. The incurrence of these costs may have a material adverse effect on Wabtec’s liquidity, cash flows and operating results in the periods in which they are incurred.

Investors holding shares of Wabtec common stock immediately prior to the completion of the Transactions will have a significantly reduced ownership and voting interest in Wabtec after the Transactions and will exercise less influence over management.

Investors holding shares of Wabtec common stock immediately prior to the completion of the Transactions will, in the aggregate, own a significantly smaller percentage of the combined company immediately after the completion of the Transactions.

Upon consummation of the Merger and calculated based on Wabtec’s outstanding common stock immediately prior to the Merger on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, 50.1% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock would be held collectively by GE and pre-Merger holders of GE common stock (with approximately 9.9% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock expected to be held by GE) and 49.9% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock would be held by pre-Merger Wabtec stockholders. The shares held by GE will be subject to GE’s obligations under (x) the Tax Matters Agreement to sell a number of shares of Wabtec common stock within two years of the Distribution Date (as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Other Agreements—Tax Matters Agreement”) and (y) the Shareholders Agreement to sell, subject to limited exceptions, all of the shares of Wabtec common stock GE beneficially owns within three years of the closing date of the Merger and prior thereto, to vote all of such shares in the proportion required under the Shareholders Agreement (as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Other Agreements—Shareholders Agreement”). Consequently, Wabtec stockholders, collectively, will be able to exercise significantly less influence over the management and policies of the combined company than they will be able to exercise over the management and Wabtec’s policies immediately prior to the completion of the Transactions.

Where calculations are presented in this prospectus-information statement on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, such calculations reflect a number of outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock that will be higher than the number of shares of Wabtec common stock actually outstanding at the relevant time, which variance may affect the actual percentages upon consummation of the Merger. In addition, in those instances, references to “Wabtec stockholders” owning 49.9% of the outstanding Wabtec common stock assume that the

28

TABLE OF CONTENTS

holders of instruments convertible into or exercisable for Wabtec common stock are the owners of the underlying Wabtec common stock and, with limited exceptions, assume that Wabtec equity awards, including those that may be settled in cash, are instruments convertible into or exercisable for Wabtec common stock.

The calculation of merger consideration will not be adjusted if there is a change in the value of GE Transportation or its assets or the value of Wabtec before the Transactions are completed.

The calculation of the number of shares of Wabtec common stock to be distributed in the Merger is based upon fixed percentages and will not be adjusted if there is a change in the value of GE Transportation or its assets or the value of Wabtec prior to the consummation of the Transactions. Wabtec will not be required to consummate the Merger if there has been any “material adverse effect” on GE Transportation as defined in the Merger Agreement (as discussed above under “The Merger Agreement”). However, Wabtec will not be permitted to terminate or re-solicit the vote of Wabtec stockholders because of any changes in the market prices of Wabtec common stock or any changes in the value of GE Transportation that do not constitute a material adverse effect on GE Transportation.

Sales of Wabtec common stock after the Transactions may negatively affect the market price of Wabtec common stock.

The shares of Wabtec common stock to be issued as part of the Transactions will generally be eligible for immediate resale. The market price of Wabtec common stock could decline as a result of sales of a large number of shares of Wabtec common stock in the market after the consummation of the Transactions or even the perception that these sales could occur.

Following the consummation of the Transactions, GE is expected to hold approximately 9.9% of the outstanding Wabtec common stock. Pursuant to the Tax Matters Agreement and the Shareholders Agreement, GE is subject to certain requirements to sell shares of Wabtec common stock acquired in the Merger with a number of shares required to be sold by the second anniversary of the Merger and, with limited exceptions, all such shares required to be sold by the third anniversary of the closing of the Merger. Although these required sales have been disclosed, future sales by GE of a substantial number of shares could reduce the market price of Wabtec common stock.

Currently, GE stock may be held in index funds, and may be held by institutional investors subject to various investing guidelines. Because Wabtec may not be included in these indices following the consummation of the Transactions or may not meet the investing guidelines of some of these institutional investors, these index funds and institutional investors may decide to or may be required to sell the Wabtec common stock that they receive. In addition, with respect to the GE retirement plans that receive shares of Wabtec common stock in the Transactions, if any, those persons with investment discretion with respect to those shares of Wabtec common stock may decide to sell such shares following the consummation of the Transactions.

Wabtec has incurred, and expects to incur, new indebtedness in connection with the Transactions, and the degree to which Wabtec will be leveraged following completion of the Transactions may have a material adverse effect on Wabtec’s business, financial condition or results of operations and cash flows.

Wabtec and the other Borrowers entered into the Credit Agreement on June 8, 2018, which includes (i) a $1.2 billion Revolving Credit Facility, (ii) a $350.0 million Refinancing Term Loan and (iii) a $400.0 million Delayed Draw Term Loan. Wabtec also obtained Bridge Commitments in respect of the Bridge Loan Facility in an amount not to exceed $2.5 billion. On September 14, 2018, in accordance with the Commitment Letter, the Bridge Commitments were permanently reduced to $0 in connection with Wabtec’s issuance of $500 million aggregate principal amount of the Floating Rate Notes, $750 million aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Notes and $1.25 billion aggregate principal amount of the 2028 Notes. Wabtec will use funds available under the Delayed Draw Term Loan and the proceeds from the issuance of the New Wabtec Notes to pay the Direct Sale Purchase Price. The Credit Agreement is expected to have approximately $812 million of unused availability immediately following consummation of the Transactions.

If Wabtec is not able to repay or refinance its debt as it becomes due, Wabtec may be forced to sell assets or take other disadvantageous actions, including (i) reducing financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes or (ii) dedicating an unsustainable level of Wabtec’s cash flow from

29

TABLE OF CONTENTS

operations to the payment of principal and interest on Wabtec’s indebtedness. In addition, Wabtec’s ability to withstand competitive pressures and react to changes in Wabtec’s industry could be impaired. The lenders who hold such debt also could accelerate amounts due, which could potentially trigger a default or acceleration of any of Wabtec’s other debt.

In addition, Wabtec may increase its debt or raise additional capital following the Transactions, subject to restrictions in Wabtec’s debt agreements. If Wabtec’s cash flow from operations is less than it anticipates, or if Wabtec’s cash requirements are more than it expects, Wabtec may require more financing. However, debt or equity financing may not be available to Wabtec on terms advantageous or acceptable to Wabtec, if at all. If Wabtec incurs additional debt or raises equity through the issuance of preferred stock, the terms of the debt or preferred stock issued may give the holders rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of holders of Wabtec common stock, particularly in the event of liquidation. The terms of the debt or preferred stock also may impose additional and more stringent restrictions on Wabtec’s operations than those to which it is currently subject. If Wabtec raises funds through the issuance of additional equity, Wabtec stockholders’ percentage ownership in Wabtec would be further diluted. If Wabtec is unable to raise additional capital when needed, it could affect Wabtec’s financial condition.

Further, Wabtec’s credit ratings impact the cost and availability of future borrowings, and, as a result, Wabtec’s cost of capital. Wabtec’s ratings reflect each rating organization’s opinion of Wabtec’s financial strength, operating performance and ability to meet Wabtec’s debt obligations. Each of the ratings organizations reviews Wabtec’s ratings periodically, and there can be no assurance that current ratings will be maintained in the future. Following the announcement of the Transactions, Moody’s affirmed Wabtec’s current credit ratings with a negative outlook, Standard & Poor’s placed Wabtec’s credit ratings under review for a possible downgrade and Fitch assigned Wabtec a BBB- credit rating with a stable outlook. On September 10, 2018, Standard & Poor’s affirmed Wabtec’s current credit ratings with a negative outlook. Downgrades in Wabtec’s ratings could adversely affect Wabtec’s businesses, cash flows, financial condition and operating results.

The historical financial information of GE Transportation may not be representative of its results or financial condition if it had been operated independently of GE and, as a result, may not be a reliable indicator of its future results.

GE Transportation is currently operated by GE. Consequently, the financial information of GE Transportation included in this prospectus-information statement has been derived from the consolidated financial statements and accounting records of GE as if the operations of GE Transportation were conducted independently from GE. The historical results of operations, financial position and cash flows of GE Transportation included in this prospectus-information statement may not be indicative of what they would have been had GE Transportation actually been an independent stand-alone entity, nor are they necessarily indicative of the future results of operations, financial position and cash flows of GE Transportation. For example, the combined financial statements of GE Transportation include all revenues and costs directly attributable to GE Transportation and an allocation of expenses related to certain GE corporate functions. These expenses have been allocated to GE Transportation based on direct usage or benefit where identifiable, with the remainder allocated pro rata based on an applicable measure of revenues, cost of revenues, headcount, fixed assets, number of transactions or other relevant measures. Although SpinCo considers these allocations to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of services or the benefit received, the allocations may not be indicative of the actual expense that would have been incurred had SpinCo operated as an independent, stand-alone entity, nor are they indicative of SpinCo’s future expenses.

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information of Wabtec and GE Transportation is not intended to reflect what actual results of operations and financial condition would have been had Wabtec and GE Transportation been a combined company for the periods presented, and therefore these results may not be indicative of Wabtec’s future operating performance.

Because Wabtec will acquire GE Transportation only upon completion of the Transactions, it has no available historical financial information that consolidates the financial results for the GE Transportation and Wabtec. The historical financial statements contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus-information statement consist of the separate financial statements of GE Transportation and Wabtec.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information presented in this prospectus-information statement is for illustrative purposes only and is not intended to, and does not purport to, represent what

30

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Wabtec’s actual results or financial condition would have been if the Transactions had occurred on the relevant date. In addition, such unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is based in part on certain assumptions regarding the Transactions that Wabtec believes are reasonable. These assumptions, however, are only preliminary and will be updated only after the consummation of the Transactions. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting, with Wabtec considered the acquirer of GE Transportation. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the purchase price is allocated to the underlying tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values with any excess purchase price allocated to goodwill. The pro forma purchase price allocation was based on an estimate of the fair values of the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities of GE Transportation. In arriving at the estimated fair values, Wabtec considered the preliminary appraisals of independent consultants which were based on a preliminary and limited review of the assets and liabilities related to GE Transportation to be transferred to, or assumed by, Direct Sale Purchaser, SpinCo and the SpinCo Transferred Subsidiaries in the Transactions. Following the Merger, Wabtec expects to complete the purchase price allocation after considering the fair value of the assets and liabilities of GE Transportation at the level of detail necessary to finalize the required purchase price allocation. The final purchase price allocation may be different than that reflected in the pro forma purchase price allocation presented herein, and this difference may be material.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not reflect the costs of any integration activities or transaction-related costs or incremental capital spending that Wabtec management believes are necessary to realize the anticipated synergies from the Transactions. Accordingly, the pro forma financial information included in this prospectus-information statement does not reflect what Wabtec’s results of operations or operating condition would have been had Wabtec and GE Transportation been a consolidated entity during all periods presented, or what Wabtec’s results of operations and financial condition will be in the future.

Wabtec may be unable to provide the same types and level of benefits, services and resources to GE Transportation that historically have been provided by GE, or may be unable to provide them at the same cost.

As part of GE, GE Transportation has been able to receive benefits and services from GE and has been able to benefit from GE’s financial strength and extensive business relationships. After the consummation of the Transactions, GE Transportation will be owned by Wabtec and no longer will benefit from GE’s resources. While Wabtec will enter into agreements under which GE will agree to provide certain transition services and site-related services for a period of time following the consummation of the Transactions, it cannot be assured that Wabtec will be able to adequately replace those resources or replace them at the same cost. If Wabtec is not able to replace the resources provided by GE or is unable to replace them at the same cost or is delayed in replacing the resources provided by GE, Wabtec’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially adversely impacted.

Wabtec’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected following the Transactions if Wabtec cannot negotiate contract terms that are as favorable as those GE has received when Wabtec replaces certain of GE Transportation’s contracts after the closing of the Transactions.

Prior to the consummation of the Transactions, certain functions (such as purchasing, accounts payable processing, accounts receivable management, information systems, logistics and distribution) associated with GE Transportation are being performed under GE’s centralized systems and, in some cases, under contracts that also are used for GE’s other businesses and which will not be assigned in whole or in part to GE Transportation. In addition, some other contracts to which GE is a party on behalf of GE Transportation will require consents of third parties to assign them to GE Transportation. There can be no assurance that GE Transportation will be able to negotiate contract terms that are as favorable as those GE received when and if Wabtec replaces these contracts with its own agreements for similar services, including any contracts that may need to be replaced as a result of a failure to obtain required third-party consents.

Although Wabtec believes that it will be able to enter into new agreements for similar services and that GE and Wabtec will be able to obtain all material third-party consents required to assign contracts to GE Transportation, it is possible that the failure to enter into new agreements for similar services or to obtain required consents to assign contracts could have a material adverse impact on Wabtec’s business, financial condition and results of operations following the consummation of the Transactions.

31

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Wabtec may fail to realize anticipated tax benefits of the Transactions.

GE and Wabtec intend that the Distribution and/or certain related transactions and the Direct Sale will be taxable to GE. Accordingly, GE and Wabtec intend that the Transactions will enable Wabtec to receive an increased tax basis in the assets of the SpinCo Business and the assets acquired in the Direct Sale and to realize other related tax benefits. However, the tax treatment of the Distribution, the Direct Sale and certain related transactions, and Wabtec’s ability to realize the increased tax basis and other related tax benefits referenced above, are not certain. GE and Wabtec are not aware of any authority directly addressing a transaction involving these same facts, and do not intend to obtain any ruling from the IRS, or any opinion of counsel, relating to the availability of the intended tax basis increases and other related tax benefits referenced above.

If the IRS or a court were to successfully assert that the Distribution and certain related transactions are not taxable to GE or that the Direct Sale is not treated as a taxable sale for U.S. federal income tax purposes, Wabtec and its subsidiaries (including SpinCo and Direct Sale Purchaser) likely would need to make increased payments for taxes in the future relative to the payments they would have made absent such successful assertion. Because GE’s obligation under the Tax Matters Agreement to repay Wabtec on account of tax benefits that are later disallowed is in respect of the portion of the tax benefits for which Wabtec made payments to GE (and not the incremental tax benefits referenced above), GE’s repayment obligation in such case would not fully compensate Wabtec and its subsidiaries for the loss of all of the intended tax basis increases and other related tax benefits referenced above. See “Other Agreements—Tax Matters Agreement” for a more detailed description of the treatment of the tax benefits referenced above under the Tax Matters Agreement.

Wabtec may be required to make significant tax-related payments to GE.

Under the Tax Matters Agreement, Wabtec has agreed to make certain payments to GE as and when Wabtec realizes certain tax benefits arising out of the Transactions. The exact amount and timing of these payments is not certain, but GE and Wabtec expect that the amount of the payments will be significant and that all or a large majority of the amounts paid by Wabtec pursuant to this obligation will be paid within several years of the Distribution. The Tax Matters Agreement also obligates Wabtec to indemnify GE for certain types of taxes and other related amounts paid by GE or its subsidiaries to the extent such taxes and other amounts arise as a result of certain actions or failures to act, or breaches of the Tax Matters Agreement, by Wabtec, SpinCo or their subsidiaries, or with respect to the assets of Wabtec, SpinCo or their subsidiaries. See “Other Agreements—Tax Matters Agreement” for a more detailed description of Wabtec’s obligation to make payments to GE in relation to Wabtec’s realization of tax benefits from the Transactions and Wabtec’s obligation to indemnify GE for certain taxes and other related amounts. To the extent the Tax Matters Agreement requires Wabtec, SpinCo or their subsidiaries to make substantial payments to GE or its subsidiaries, such payments could have a material adverse effect on Wabtec, including with respect to its financial condition and results of operations.

Wabtec and SpinCo are required to abide by potentially significant restrictions which could limit their ability to effect certain transactions (such as a merger or other combination) that otherwise could be advantageous.

To preserve the intended tax treatment of the Distribution and related transactions, the Tax Matters Agreement restricts Wabtec, SpinCo and their subsidiaries from taking certain actions that could affect such tax treatment or increase the tax liability of GE or its affiliates. These restrictions may limit the ability of Wabtec, SpinCo and their subsidiaries to pursue certain strategic or otherwise beneficial transactions, including certain acquisitions and equity capital market transactions. See “Other Agreements—Tax Matters Agreement” for a more detailed description of these restrictions.

Wabtec will have more shares of its common stock outstanding and will be a substantially larger company with significant indebtedness after the Transactions, which may discourage other companies from trying to acquire Wabtec.

Wabtec expects to issue approximately 98.4 million shares of its common stock in the Merger. Because Wabtec will be a significantly larger company and will have significantly more shares of its common stock outstanding after the consummation of the Transactions and significantly more outstanding indebtedness, an acquisition of Wabtec by a third party may become more expensive for potential acquirors. As a result, some companies may not seek to acquire Wabtec, and the reduction in potential parties that may seek to acquire Wabtec could negatively impact the prices at which Wabtec common stock trades.

32

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Wabtec’s estimates and judgments related to the acquisition accounting models used to record the purchase price allocation may be inaccurate.

Wabtec management will make significant accounting judgments and estimates for the application of acquisition accounting under GAAP, and the underlying valuation models. Wabtec’s business, operating results and financial condition could be materially and adversely impacted in future periods if Wabtec’s accounting judgments and estimates related to these models prove to be inaccurate.

Wabtec may be required to recognize impairment charges for goodwill and other intangible assets.

Wabtec currently estimates that the proposed Transactions will add approximately $9,911.1 million of goodwill and other intangible assets to Wabtec’s consolidated balance sheet. In accordance with GAAP, Wabtec management periodically assesses these assets to determine if they are impaired. Significant negative industry or economic trends, disruptions to Wabtec’s business, inability to effectively integrate acquired businesses, unexpected significant changes or planned changes in use of the assets, divestitures and market capitalization declines may impair goodwill and other intangible assets. Any charges relating to such impairments would adversely affect Wabtec’s results of operations in the periods recognized.

Wabtec may waive one or more of the conditions to the consummation of the Transactions without re-soliciting stockholder approval.

Wabtec may determine to waive, in whole or in part, one or more of the conditions to its obligations to consummate the Transactions to the extent permitted by applicable law. If Wabtec waives the satisfaction of a material condition to the consummation of the Transactions, Wabtec will evaluate the facts and circumstances at that time and re-solicit stockholder approval of the Share Issuance and the Wabtec Charter Amendment if required to do so by applicable law or other relevant rules. In some cases, if the Wabtec Board determines that such waiver or its effect on Wabtec stockholders does not rise to the level of materiality that would require re-solicitation of proxies pursuant to applicable law or rules, Wabtec would complete the Merger without seeking further stockholder approval.

Wabtec directors and executive officers have interests in seeing the Transactions completed are different from, or in addition to, those of other Wabtec stockholders.

Wabtec directors and executive officers have financial interests in the Transactions that are different from, or in addition to, the interests of Wabtec stockholders generally. The members of the Wabtec Board were aware of and considered these interests, among other matters, in deciding to approve the terms of the Transactions, including the Merger, and in recommending to Wabtec stockholders that they vote to approve the Share Issuance and the Wabtec Charter Amendment.

The directors of Wabtec immediately prior to the consummation of the Merger are generally expected to be the directors of Wabtec immediately after the consummation of the Merger (although the size of the Wabtec Board will be increased to include three additional independent directors to be designated by GE, effective at the time of closing of the Merger). The executive officers of Wabtec immediately prior to consummation of the Merger are generally expected to be the executive officers of Wabtec immediately following consummation of the Merger, with Albert J. Neupaver remaining as Wabtec’s executive chairman and Raymond T. Betler remaining as Wabtec’s president and CEO. Following consummation of the Transactions, Stéphane Rambaud-Measson will become president and CEO of Wabtec’s Transit Segment and Rafael O. Santana, president and CEO of GE Transportation, will become president and CEO of Wabtec’s Freight Segment.

In addition, the directors and executive officers of Wabtec would be entitled to accelerated vesting of certain equity incentive awards upon the consummation of the Merger, and certain executive officers would be entitled to severance benefits upon a qualifying termination of employment in connection with the Merger that are greater than the severance benefits to which they are entitled without regard to the consummation of the Merger.

For a further description and quantification of the benefits that the Wabtec directors and executive officers may receive as a result of these interests, see “The Transactions—Interests of Wabtec’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Transactions.”

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Risks Related to Wabtec, Including GE Transportation, After the Transactions

For purposes of the following discussion, unless the context requires otherwise, “Wabtec” refers to Westinghouse Air Brake Technologies Corporation and its subsidiaries, including SpinCo and the SpinCo Transferred Subsidiaries.

Prolonged unfavorable economic and market conditions could adversely affect Wabtec’s business.

Unfavorable general economic and market conditions in the United States and internationally—particularly in Wabtec’s key end markets—could have a negative impact on Wabtec’s sales and operations. To the extent that these factors result in continued instability of capital markets, shortages of raw materials or component parts, longer sales cycles, deferral or delay of customer orders or an inability to market Wabtec’s products effectively, Wabtec’s business and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

Wabtec is dependent upon key customers.

Wabtec relies on several key customers who represent a significant portion of its business. While Wabtec believes its relationships with its customers are generally good, Wabtec’s top customers could choose to reduce or terminate their relationships with Wabtec. In addition, many of Wabtec’s customers place orders for products on an as-needed basis and operate in cyclical industries. As a result, customer order levels have varied from period to period in the past and may vary significantly in the future. Such customer orders are dependent upon their markets and customers, and may be subject to delays and cancellations. Furthermore, the average service life of certain products in Wabtec’s end markets has increased in recent years due to innovations in technologies and manufacturing processes, which has also allowed end users to replace parts less often. As a result of Wabtec’s dependence on its key customers, Wabtec could experience a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations and financial condition if it lost any one or more of its key customers or if there is a reduction in their demand for Wabtec’s products.

Wabtec operates in a highly competitive industry.

Wabtec operates in a global, competitive marketplace and faces substantial competition from a limited number of established competitors, some of which may have greater financial resources than Wabtec, may have a more extensive low-cost sourcing strategy and presence in low-cost regions than Wabtec or may receive significant governmental support. Price competition is strong and, coupled with the existence of a number of cost conscious customers with significant negotiating power, has historically limited Wabtec’s ability to increase prices. In addition to price, competition is based on product performance and technological leadership, quality, reliability of delivery and customer service and support. If Wabtec’s competitors invest heavily in innovation and develop products that are more efficient or effective than Wabtec’s products, Wabtec may not be able to compete effectively. There can be no assurance that competition in one or more of Wabtec’s markets will not adversely affect Wabtec’s business and its results of operations.

Wabtec intends to pursue acquisitions, joint ventures and alliances that involve a number of inherent risks, any of which may cause Wabtec not to realize anticipated benefits.

One aspect of Wabtec’s business strategy is to selectively pursue acquisitions, joint ventures and alliances that Wabtec believes will improve its market position, and provide opportunities to realize operating synergies. These transactions involve inherent risks and uncertainties, any one of which could have a material adverse effect on Wabtec’s business, results of operations and financial condition including:

| • | difficulties in achieving identified financial and operating synergies, including the integration of operations, services and products;

| • | diversion of management’s attention from other business concerns;

| • | the assumption of unknown liabilities; and

| • | unanticipated changes in the market conditions, business and economic factors affecting such an acquisition, joint venture or alliance.

Wabtec cannot assure that it will be able to consummate any future acquisitions, joint ventures or other business combinations. If Wabtec is unable to identify or consummate suitable acquisitions, joint ventures or alliances,

34

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Wabtec may be unable to fully implement its business strategy, and its business and results of operations may be adversely affected as a result. In addition, Wabtec’s ability to engage in such strategic transactions will be dependent on its ability to raise substantial capital, and Wabtec may not be able to raise the funds necessary to implement this strategy on terms satisfactory to Wabtec, if at all.

A failure to predict and react to customer demand could adversely affect Wabtec’s business.

If Wabtec is unable to accurately forecast demand for its existing products or to react appropriately to changes in demand, Wabtec may experience delayed product shipments and customer dissatisfaction. If demand increases significantly from current levels, both Wabtec and its suppliers may have difficulty meeting such demand, particularly if such demand increases occur rapidly. Alternatively, Wabtec may carry excess inventory if demand for its products decreases below projected levels.

Additionally, Wabtec has dedicated significant resources to the development, manufacturing and marketing of new products. Decisions to develop and market new transportation products are typically made without firm indications of customer acceptance. Moreover, by their nature, new products may require alteration of existing business methods or threaten to displace existing equipment in which Wabtec’s customers may have a substantial capital investment. There can be no assurance that any new products that Wabtec develops will gain widespread acceptance in the marketplace or that such products will be able to compete successfully with other new products or services that may be introduced by competitors. Furthermore, Wabtec may incur additional warranty or other costs as new products are tested and used by customers.

Failure to accurately predict and react to customer demand could have a material adverse effect on Wabtec’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

Wabtec may fail to respond adequately or in a timely manner to innovative changes in new technology.

In recent years, the global transportation landscape has been characterized by rapid changes in technology, leading to innovative transportation and logistics concepts that could change the way the railway industry does business. There may be additional innovations impacting the railway industry that Wabtec cannot yet foresee. Any failure by Wabtec to quickly adapt to and adopt new innovations in products and processes desired by Wabtec’s customers may result in a significant loss of demand for Wabtec’s product and service offerings. In addition, advances in technology may require Wabtec to increase investments in order to remain competitive, and Wabtec’s customers may not be willing to accept higher prices to cover the cost of these investments.

A portion of Wabtec’s sales are related to delivering products and services to help its U.S. railroad and transit customers meet the Positive Train Control (“PTC”) mandate from the U.S. federal government, which requires the use of on-board locomotive computers and software by the end of 2018.

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, Wabtec, without giving effect to the Transactions, had sales of about $322 million related to train control and signaling, which includes PTC. In 2015, the industry’s PTC deadline was extended by three years through December 31, 2018, which also included the ability of railroads to request an additional two years for compliance with the approval of the Department of Transportation if certain parameters are met. This could change the timing of Wabtec’s revenues and could cause Wabtec to reassess the staffing, resources and assets deployed in delivering PTC services.

Wabtec’s revenues are subject to cyclical variations in the railway and passenger transit markets and changes in government spending.

The railway industry historically has been subject to significant fluctuations due to overall economic conditions, the use of alternate methods of transportation and the levels of government spending on railway projects. In economic downturns, railroads have deferred, and may defer, certain expenditures in order to conserve cash in the short term. Reductions in freight traffic may reduce demand for Wabtec’s replacement products.

The passenger transit railroad industry is also cyclical and is influenced by a variety of factors. New passenger transit car orders vary from year to year and are influenced by a variety of factors, including major replacement programs, the construction or expansion of transit systems by transit authorities and the quality and cost of alternative modes of transportation. To the extent that future funding for proposed public projects is curtailed or withdrawn altogether as a result of changes in political, economic, fiscal or other conditions beyond Wabtec’s

35

TABLE OF CONTENTS

control, such projects may be delayed or cancelled, resulting in a potential loss of business for Wabtec, including locomotives, transit aftermarket and new transit car orders. There can be no assurance that economic conditions will be favorable or that there will not be significant fluctuations adversely affecting the industry as a whole and, as a result, Wabtec.

Wabtec’s backlog is not necessarily indicative of the level of Wabtec’s future revenues.

Wabtec’s backlog represents future production and estimated potential revenue attributable to firm contracts with, or written orders from, its customers for delivery in various periods. Instability in the global economy, negative conditions in the global credit markets, volatility in the industries that Wabtec’s products serve, changes in legislative policy, adverse changes in the financial condition of Wabtec’s customers, adverse changes in the availability of raw materials and supplies, or un-remedied contract breaches could possibly lead to contract termination or cancellations of orders in Wabtec’s backlog or request for deferred deliveries of Wabtec’s backlog orders, each of which could adversely affect Wabtec’s cash flows and results of operations.

A growing portion of Wabtec’s sales may be derived from its international operations, which exposes Wabtec to certain risks inherent in doing business on an international level.

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, without giving effect to the Transactions, approximately 66% of Wabtec’s consolidated net sales were to customers outside of the United States. Wabtec intends to continue to expand its international operations, including in emerging markets, in the future. Wabtec’s global headquarters for the Transit group is located in France, and Wabtec conducts other international operations through a variety of wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries and joint ventures, including in Australia, Austria, Brazil, Canada, China, Czech Republic, France, Germany, India, Italy, Macedonia, Mexico, the Netherlands, Poland, Russia, Spain, South Africa, Turkey, and the United Kingdom. As a result, Wabtec is subject to various risks, any one of which could have a material adverse effect on those operations and on its business as a whole, including:

| • | lack of complete operating control;

| • | lack of local business experience;

| • | currency exchange fluctuations and devaluations;

| • | restrictions on currency conversion or the transfer of funds or limitations on Wabtec’s ability to repatriate income or capital;

| • | the complexities of operating within multiple tax jurisdictions;

| • | foreign trade restrictions and exchange controls;

| • | adverse impacts of international trade policies, such as import quotas, capital controls or tariffs;

| • | difficulty enforcing agreements and intellectual property rights;

| • | the challenges of complying with complex and changing, laws regulations and policies of foreign governments;

| • | the difficulties involved in staffing and managing widespread operations;

| • | the potential for nationalization of enterprises;

| • | economic, political and social instability; and

| • | possible terrorist attacks, conflicts and wars, including those against American interests.

Wabtec’s exposure to the risks associated with international operations may intensify if its international operations expand in the future.

Wabtec may have liability arising from asbestos litigation.

Claims have been filed against Wabtec and certain of its affiliates in various jurisdictions across the United States by persons alleging bodily injury as a result of exposure to asbestos-containing products. Most of these claims have been made against Wabtec’s wholly owned subsidiary, Railroad Friction Products Corporation (“RFPC”), and are based on a product sold by RFPC prior to the time that Wabtec acquired any interest in RFPC.

36

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Most of these claims, including all of the RFPC claims, are submitted to insurance carriers for defense and indemnity or to non-affiliated companies that have retained the liabilities for the asbestos-containing products at issue. Wabtec cannot, however, assure that all these claims will be fully covered by insurance or that the indemnitors or insurers will remain financially viable. Wabtec’s ultimate legal and financial liability with respect to these claims, as is the case with most other pending litigation, cannot be estimated.

Wabtec is subject to a variety of laws and regulations, including anti-corruption laws, in various jurisdictions.

Wabtec is subject to various laws, rules and regulations administered by authorities in jurisdictions in which Wabtec does business, such as the anti-corruption laws of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the French Law n° 2016-1691 (Sapin II) and the U.K. Bribery Act, relating to its business and its employees. Wabtec is also subject to other laws and regulations governing its international operations, including regulations administered by the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security, the U.S. Department of Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control, and various non-U.S. government entities, including applicable export control regulations, economic sanctions on countries and persons, customs requirements, currency exchange regulations, and transfer pricing regulations. Despite Wabtec’s policies, procedures and compliance programs, its internal controls and compliance systems may not be able to protect Wabtec from prohibited acts willfully committed by its employees, agents or business partners that would violate such applicable laws and regulations. Any such improper acts could damage Wabtec’s reputation, subject it to civil or criminal judgments, fines or penalties, and could otherwise disrupt Wabtec’s business, and as a result, could materially adversely impact Wabtec’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

In addition, Wabtec’s manufacturing operations are subject to safety, operations, maintenance and mechanical standards, rules and regulations enforced by various federal and state agencies and industry organizations both domestically and internationally. Wabtec’s business may be adversely impacted by new rules and regulations or changes to existing rules or regulations, which could require additional maintenance or substantial modification or refurbishment of certain of Wabtec’s products or could make such products obsolete or require them to be phased out prior to their useful lives. Wabtec is unable to predict what impact these or other regulatory changes may have, if any, on its business or the industry as a whole. Wabtec cannot assure that costs incurred to comply with any new standards or regulations will not be material to Wabtec’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

Wabtec is subject to a variety of environmental laws and regulations.

Wabtec is subject to a variety of increasingly stringent environmental laws and regulations governing discharges to air and water, substances in products, the handling, storage and disposal of hazardous or solid waste materials and the remediation of contamination associated with releases of hazardous substances. Wabtec has incurred, and will continue to incur, both operating and capital costs to comply with environmental laws and regulations, including costs associated with the clean-up and investigation of some of Wabtec’s current and former properties and offsite disposal locations. Wabtec believes its operations currently comply in all material respects with all of the various environmental laws and regulations applicable to its business; however, there can be no assurance that environmental requirements will not change in the future or that Wabtec will not incur significant costs to comply with such requirements. Failure to comply with environmental laws and regulations could have significant consequences on Wabtec’s business and results of operations, including the imposition of substantial fines and sanctions for violations, injunctive relief (including requirements that Wabtec limit or cease operations at affected facilities), and reputational risk.

In addition, certain of Wabtec’s products are subject to extensive, and increasingly stringent, statutory and regulatory requirements governing, e.g., emissions and noise, including standards imposed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the European Union and other regulatory agencies around the world. Wabtec has made, and will continue to make, significant capital and research expenditures relating to compliance with these standards. The successful development and introduction of new and enhanced products in order to comply with new regulatory requirements are subject to other risks, such as delays in product development, cost over-runs and unanticipated technical and manufacturing difficulties. In addition to these risks, the nature and timing of government implementation and enforcement of these standards—particularly in emerging markets—are unpredictable and subject to change.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Future climate change regulation could result in increased operating costs, affect the demand for Wabtec’s products or affect the ability of Wabtec’s critical suppliers to meet its needs.

Wabtec has followed the current debate over climate change and the related policy discussion and prospective legislation. The potential challenges for Wabtec that climate change policy and legislation may pose have been reviewed by Wabtec. Any such challenges are heavily dependent on the nature and degree of climate change legislation and the extent to which it applies to Wabtec’s industry. At this time, Wabtec cannot predict the ultimate impact of climate change and climate change legislation on Wabtec’s operations. Further, when or if these impacts may occur cannot be assessed until scientific analysis and legislative policy are more developed and specific legislative proposals begin to take shape. Any laws or regulations that may be adopted to restrict or reduce emissions of greenhouse gas could require Wabtec to incur increased operating costs, and could have an adverse effect on demand for Wabtec’s products. In addition, the price and availability of certain of the raw materials that Wabtec uses could vary in the future as a result of environmental laws and regulations affecting Wabtec’s suppliers. An increase in the price of Wabtec’s raw materials or a decline in their availability could adversely affect Wabtec’s operating margins or result in reduced demand for Wabtec’s products.

The occurrence of litigation in which Wabtec could be named as a defendant is unpredictable.

From time to time, Wabtec is subject to litigation or other commercial disputes and other legal and regulatory proceedings with respect to its business, customers, suppliers, creditors, shareholders, product liability, intellectual property infringement, warranty claims or environmental-related matters. Due to the inherent uncertainties of any litigation, commercial disputes or other legal or regulatory proceedings, Wabtec cannot accurately predict their ultimate outcome, including the outcome of any related appeals. Wabtec may incur significant expense to defend or otherwise address current or future claims. Any litigation, even a claim without merit, could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and could have a material adverse effect on Wabtec’s business and results of operations. Although Wabtec maintains insurance policies for certain risks, Wabtec cannot make assurances that this insurance will be adequate to protect Wabtec from all material judgments and expenses related to potential future claims or that these levels of insurance will be available in the future at economical prices or at all.

If Wabtec is not able to protect its intellectual property and other proprietary rights, Wabtec may be adversely affected.

Wabtec’s success can be impacted by its ability to protect its intellectual property and other proprietary rights. Wabtec relies primarily on patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets and unfair competition laws, as well as license agreements and other contractual provisions, to protect its intellectual property and other proprietary rights. However, filing, prosecuting and defending patents on Wabtec’s products in all countries and jurisdictions throughout the world would be prohibitively expensive. Moreover, existing U.S. legal standards relating to the validity, enforceability and scope of protection of intellectual property rights offer only limited protection, may not provide Wabtec with any competitive advantages and may be challenged by third parties. The laws of countries other than the United States may be even less protective of intellectual property rights. As a result, a significant portion of Wabtec’s technology is not patented and Wabtec may be unable or may not seek to obtain patent protection for this technology. Further, although Wabtec routinely conducts anti-counterfeiting activities in multiple jurisdictions, Wabtec has encountered counterfeit reproductions of Wabtec’s products or products that otherwise infringe on Wabtec’s intellectual property rights. Counterfeit components of low quality may negatively impact Wabtec’s brand value. Accordingly, despite Wabtec’s efforts, Wabtec may be unable to prevent third parties from infringing upon, counterfeiting or misappropriating its intellectual property or otherwise gaining access to Wabtec’s technology. If Wabtec fails to protect its intellectual property and other proprietary rights, then Wabtec’s business, results of operations and financial condition could be negatively impacted.

In addition, Wabtec operates in industries in which there are many third-party owners of intellectual property rights. Owners of intellectual property that Wabtec needs to conduct its business as it evolves may be unwilling to license such intellectual property rights to Wabtec on terms Wabtec considers reasonable. Third party intellectual property owners may assert infringement claims against Wabtec based on their intellectual property portfolios. If Wabtec is sued for intellectual property infringement, Wabtec may incur significant expenses investigating and defending such claims, even if Wabtec prevails.

Wabtec faces risks relating to cybersecurity attacks that could cause loss of confidential information and other business disruptions.

Threats to information technology systems associated with cybersecurity risks and cyber incidents or attacks continue to grow and Wabtec’s business is at risk from and may be impacted by cybersecurity attacks. Wabtec relies extensively on computer systems to process transactions and manage its business. In addition, Wabtec collects, processes and retains sensitive and confidential customer information in the normal course of business. Cybersecurity attacks could include attempts to gain unauthorized access to Wabtec’s data and computer systems. Attacks can be both individual and/or highly organized attempts by very sophisticated hacking organizations. Wabtec employs a number of measures to prevent, detect and mitigate these threats, which include employee education, password encryption, frequent password change events, firewall detection systems, anti-virus software in-place and frequent backups; however, there is no guarantee such efforts will be successful in preventing a cyber-attack. A cybersecurity attack could compromise the confidential information of Wabtec’s employees, customers and suppliers, and potentially violate certain domestic and international privacy laws. Furthermore, a cybersecurity attack on Wabtec’s customers and suppliers could compromise Wabtec’s confidential information in the possession of Wabtec’s customers and suppliers. A successful attack could disrupt and otherwise adversely affect Wabtec’s business operations, including through lawsuits by third-parties. In addition, the regulatory environment related to information security and privacy is constantly changing, and compliance with those requirements could result in additional costs.

Wabtec’s manufacturer’s warranties or product liability may expose Wabtec to potentially significant claims.

Wabtec warrants the workmanship and materials of many of its products. Accordingly, Wabtec is subject to a risk of product liability or warranty claims in the event that the failure of any of its products results in personal injury or death, or does not conform to Wabtec’s customers’ specifications. In addition, in recent years, Wabtec has introduced a number of new products for which Wabtec does not have a history of warranty experience. Although Wabtec currently maintains liability insurance coverage, Wabtec cannot assure that product liability claims, if made, would not exceed Wabtec’s insurance coverage limits or that insurance will continue to be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. The possibility exists for these types of warranty claims to result in costly product recalls, significant repair costs and damage to Wabtec’s reputation.

Labor shortages and labor disputes may have a material adverse effect on Wabtec’s operations and profitability.

Wabtec depends on skilled labor in its manufacturing and other businesses. Due to the competitive nature of the labor markets in which Wabtec operates, Wabtec may not be able to retain, recruit and train the personnel Wabtec requires, particularly when the economy expands, production rates are high or competition for such skilled labor increases.

Wabtec collectively bargains with labor unions at some of its operations throughout the world. Failure to reach an agreement could result in strikes or other labor protests which could disrupt Wabtec’s operations. Furthermore, non-union employees in certain countries have the right to strike. If Wabtec were to experience a strike or work stoppage, it would be difficult for Wabtec to find a sufficient number of employees with the necessary skills to replace these employees. Wabtec cannot assure that it will reach any such agreement or that it will not encounter strikes or other types of conflicts with the labor unions of Wabtec’s personnel.

Any such labor shortages or labor disputes could have an adverse effect on Wabtec’s business, results of operations and financial condition, could cause Wabtec to lose revenues and customers and might have permanent effects on Wabtec’s business.

Equipment failures, interruptions, delays in deliveries or extensive damage to Wabtec’s facilities, supply chains, distribution systems or information technology systems, could adversely affect its business.

All of Wabtec’s facilities, equipment, supply chains, distribution systems and information technology systems are subject to the risk of catastrophic loss due to unanticipated events, such as fires, earthquakes, explosions, floods, tornados, hurricanes or weather conditions. An interruption in Wabtec’s manufacturing capabilities, supply chains, distribution systems or information technology systems, whether as a result of such catastrophic loss or any other reason, could reduce, prevent or delay Wabtec’s production and shipment of its product offerings, result in

39

TABLE OF CONTENTS

defective products or services, damage customer relationships and Wabtec’s reputation and result in legal exposure and large repair or replacement expenses. This could result in the delay or termination of orders, the loss of future sales and a negative impact to Wabtec’s reputation with Wabtec’s customers.

Third-party insurance coverage that Wabtec maintains with respect to such matters will vary from time to time in both type and amount depending on cost, availability and Wabtec’s decisions regarding risk retention, and may be unavailable or insufficient to protect Wabtec against losses. Any of these risks coming to fruition could materially adversely affect Wabtec’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

Wabtec may be exposed to raw material shortages, supply shortages and fluctuations in raw material, energy and commodity prices.

Wabtec purchases energy, steel, aluminum, copper, rubber and rubber-based materials, chemicals, polymers and other key manufacturing inputs from outside sources, and traditionally has not had long-term pricing contracts with its pure raw material suppliers. The costs of these raw materials have been volatile historically and are influenced by factors that are outside Wabtec’s control. If Wabtec is unable to pass increases in the costs of Wabtec’s raw materials on to Wabtec’s customers, experiences a lag in its ability to pass increases to Wabtec’s customers, or operational efficiencies are not achieved, Wabtec’s operating margins and results of operations may be materially adversely affected.

Wabtec’s businesses compete globally for key production inputs. In addition, Wabtec relies upon third-party suppliers, including certain single-sourced suppliers, for various components for its products. In the event of a shortage or discontinuation of certain raw materials or key inputs, Wabtec may experience challenges sourcing certain of its components to meet its production requirements and may not be able to arrange for alternative sources of certain raw materials or key inputs. Any such shortage may materially adversely affect Wabtec’s competitive position versus companies that are able to better or more cheaply source such raw materials or key inputs.

Wabtec may incur increased costs due to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.

In the ordinary course of business, Wabtec is exposed to increases in interest rates that may adversely affect funding costs associated with variable-rate debt and changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Wabtec is subject to currency exchange rate risk to the extent that Wabtec’s costs may be denominated in currencies other than those in which Wabtec earns and reports revenues and vice versa. In addition, a decrease in the value of any of these currencies relative to the U.S. dollar could reduce Wabtec’s profits from non-U.S. operations and the translated value of the net assets of Wabtec’s non-U.S. operations when reported in U.S. dollars in Wabtec’s consolidated financial statements. Wabtec may seek to minimize these risks through the use of interest rate swap contracts and currency hedging agreements. There can be no assurance that any of these measures will be effective. Material changes in interest or exchange rates could result in material losses to Wabtec.

If Wabtec loses its senior management or key personnel, Wabtec’s business may be materially and adversely affected.

The success of Wabtec’s business is largely dependent on Wabtec’s senior management team, as well as on Wabtec’s ability to attract and retain other qualified key personnel. It cannot be assured that Wabtec will be able to retain all of its current senior management personnel and attract and retain other key personnel necessary for the development of Wabtec’s business. The loss of the services of senior management and other key personnel or the failure to attract additional personnel as required could have a material adverse effect on Wabtec’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

Wabtec has substantial operations located in India, and Wabtec is subject to regulatory, economic, social and political uncertainties in India.

Wabtec has extensive operations in India, including a large scale project in which Wabtec is constructing a factory in the state of Bihar, which includes a township to house employees. The project also includes construction of two service sheds, in the states of Uttar Pradesh and Gujarat. Wabtec’s operations in India are inherently risky due to a number of regulatory, economic, social and political uncertainties. For example, in September 2017 several media outlets reported that the Indian government expressed a desire to switch the

40

TABLE OF CONTENTS

country’s rail system from diesel to electric locomotives, which would threaten to interfere with the completion of the project and curtail the viability of Wabtec’s ongoing operations in India. While no such actions have been taken to date, any change in policy with respect to India’s rail system could have a material adverse effect on Wabtec’s business.

In addition, the Indian government has exercised and continues to exercise significant influence over many aspects of the Indian economy. Since 1991, successive Indian governments have generally pursued policies of economic liberalization and financial sector reforms, including by significantly relaxing restrictions on the private sector. Nevertheless, the role of the Indian central and state governments in the Indian economy as producers, consumers and regulators has remained significant and Wabtec cannot assure you that such liberalization policies will continue. The rate of economic liberalization could change, and specific laws and policies affecting foreign investments in India could change as well, including exposure to possible expropriation, nationalization or other governmental actions.

Further, protests against privatizations and government corruption scandals, which have occurred in the past, could slow the pace of liberalization and deregulation. A significant change in India’s policy of economic liberalization and deregulation or any social or political uncertainties could significantly harm business and economic conditions in India generally and Wabtec’s business and prospects.

India’s physical infrastructure is less developed than that of many developed nations. Any congestion or disruption with respect to communication systems or any public facility, including transportation infrastructure, could disrupt Wabtec’s normal business activity. Any deterioration of India’s physical infrastructure would harm the national economy, disrupt the transportation of people, goods and supplies, and add costs to doing business in India. These disruptions could interrupt Wabtec’s business operations and significantly harm Wabtec’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Wabtec’s indebtedness could adversely affect its financial health.

At September 30, 2018, without giving effect to the Transactions, Wabtec had total debt of $3,865.1 million. Wabtec and the other Borrowers entered into the Credit Agreement on June 8, 2018, which includes (i) a $1.2 billion Revolving Credit Facility, (ii) a $350.0 million Refinancing Term Loan and (iii) a $400.0 million Delayed Draw Term Loan. Wabtec also obtained Bridge Commitments in respect of the Bridge Loan Facility in an amount not to exceed $2.5 billion. On September 14, 2018, in accordance with the Commitment Letter, the Bridge Commitments were permanently reduced to $0 in connection with Wabtec’s issuance of $500 million aggregate principal amount of the Floating Rate Notes, $750 million aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Notes and $1.25 billion aggregate principal amount of the 2028 Notes. Wabtec will use funds available under the Delayed Draw Term Loan and the proceeds from the issuance of the New Wabtec Notes to pay the Direct Sale Purchase Price. The Credit Agreement is expected to have approximately $812 million of unused availability immediately following consummation of the Transactions. Being indebted could have important consequences to Wabtec. For example, Wabtec’s indebtedness could:

| • | increase Wabtec’s vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions;

| • | require Wabtec to dedicate a substantial portion of its cash flow from operations to payments on its indebtedness, thereby reducing the availability of its cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes;

| • | limit Wabtec’s flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in its business and the industries in which it operate;

| • | place Wabtec at a disadvantage compared to competitors that have less debt; and

| • | limit Wabtec’s ability to borrow additional funds.

The indenture for the New Wabtec Notes and Wabtec’s $750.0 million 3.450% senior notes due in 2026, Wabtec’s $250.0 million 4.375% senior notes due in 2023, and the Credit Agreement contain various covenants that limit Wabtec’s management’s discretion in the operation of Wabtec’s businesses.

The Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties by Wabtec and its subsidiaries, including customary use of materiality, material adverse effect, and knowledge qualifiers. Wabtec and its subsidiaries are also subject to (i) customary affirmative covenants that impose certain reporting obligations on

41

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Wabtec and its subsidiaries and (ii) customary negative covenants, including limitations on: indebtedness; liens; restricted payments; fundamental changes; business activities; transactions with affiliates; restrictive agreements; changes in fiscal year; and use of proceeds. In addition, Wabtec is required to maintain (i) a ratio of EBITDA to interest expense of at least 3.00 to 1.00 over each period of four consecutive fiscal quarters ending on the last day of a fiscal quarter and (ii) a Leverage Ratio, calculated as of the last day of a fiscal quarter for a period of four consecutive fiscal quarters, of 3.25 to 1.00 or less; provided that, in the event Wabtec completes the Direct Sale and the Merger or any other material acquisition in which the cash consideration paid exceeds $500.0 million, the maximum Leverage Ratio permitted will be (x) 3.75 to 1.00 at the end of the fiscal quarter in which such acquisition is consummated and each of the three fiscal quarters immediately following such fiscal quarter and (y) 3.50 to 1.00 at the end of each of the fourth and fifth full fiscal quarters after the consummation of such acquisition. See “Debt Financing.”

The indenture under which the New Wabtec Notes and the senior notes were issued contain covenants and restrictions which limit among other things, the following: sale and leaseback transactions, sale of assets, change in control, mergers and consolidations and the incurrence of liens.

The integration of Wabtec’s recently completed acquisitions may not result in anticipated improvements in market position or the realization of anticipated operating synergies or may take longer to realize than expected.

In 2016 and 2017, Wabtec completed multiple acquisitions with a combined investment of $1,865 million, which included Wabtec’s acquisition of Faiveley Transport for $1,507 million. Although Wabtec believes that the acquisitions will improve its market position and realize positive operating results, including operating synergies, operating expense reductions and overhead cost savings, Wabtec cannot be assured that these improvements will be obtained or the timing of such improvements. The management and acquisition of businesses involves substantial risks, any of which may result in a material adverse effect on Wabtec’s business and results of operations, including:

| • | the uncertainty that an acquired business will achieve anticipated operating results;

| • | significant expenses to integrate;

| • | diversion of management’s attention;

| • | departure of key personnel from the acquired business;

| • | effectively managing entrepreneurial spirit and decision-making;

| • | integration of different information systems;

| • | unanticipated costs and exposure to unforeseen liabilities; and

| • | impairment of assets.

GE, Wabtec, SpinCo and Merger Sub, entered into the Merger Agreement on May 20, 2018, and GE, SpinCo, Wabtec and Direct Sale Purchaser entered into the Separation Agreement on May 20, 2018, which together provide for the combination of Wabtec and GE Transportation through a modified Reverse Morris Trust transaction structure. In connection with the Separation of GE Transportation from the remaining business of GE, GE will conduct the Internal Reorganization.

In connection with the Direct Sale, certain assets of GE Transportation, potentially including the equity interests of certain pre-Transaction subsidiaries of GE that compose part of GE Transportation, will be sold to Direct Sale Purchaser for a cash payment of $2.9 billion, and Direct Sale Purchaser will assume certain liabilities of GE Transportation in connection with this purchase. Thereafter, GE will transfer the SpinCo Business to SpinCo and its subsidiaries (to the extent not already held by SpinCo and its subsidiaries) in the SpinCo Transfer, and SpinCo will issue to GE additional shares of SpinCo common stock in the SpinCo Transfer. Following this issuance of additional SpinCo common stock to GE, GE will own 8,700,000,000 shares of SpinCo common stock, or such other amount as GE shall determine with Wabtec’s consent, which will constitute all of the outstanding stock of SpinCo.

GE will effect the Distribution by distributing on a pro rata basis all of the Distribution Shares to GE stockholders as of the record date for the Distribution. GE will deliver the Distribution Shares to the exchange agent, who will hold such shares for the benefit of GE stockholders. GE has the option, however, to effect the Distribution pursuant to a split-off. In the event GE elects to effect the Distribution pursuant to a split-off, GE would offer to holders of GE common stock the right to exchange all or a portion of their GE common stock for a number of Distribution Shares (which, in the aggregate, may be less than all of the Distribution Shares) at a discount to the implied value of the SpinCo common stock (based on the per-share value of Wabtec common stock multiplied by the exchange ratio set forth in the Merger Agreement), subject to proration if the GE stockholders have validly tendered more shares of GE common stock than GE is offering to accept for exchange. In the event the GE Exchange Offer is consummated, GE would distribute the remaining Distribution Shares, if any, on a pro rata basis to GE stockholders whose shares of GE common stock remain outstanding after the consummation of the GE Exchange Offer.

Immediately after the Distribution and on the closing date of the Merger, Merger Sub will merge with and into SpinCo, whereby the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease and SpinCo will continue as the surviving company and a wholly owned subsidiary of Wabtec. In the Merger, subject to adjustment in accordance with the Merger Agreement, each share of SpinCo common stock will be converted into the right to receive a number of shares of Wabtec common stock based on the exchange ratio set forth in the Merger Agreement, as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “The Merger Agreement—Merger Consideration.”

Upon consummation of the Merger and calculated based on Wabtec’s outstanding common stock immediately prior to the Merger on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, 50.1% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock would be held collectively by GE and pre-Merger holders of GE common stock (with approximately 9.9% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock expected to be held by GE) and 49.9% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock would be held by pre-Merger Wabtec stockholders. The shares held by GE will be subject to GE’s obligations under (x) the Tax Matters Agreement to sell a number of shares of Wabtec common stock within two years of the Distribution Date (as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Other Agreements—Tax Matters Agreement”) and (y) the Shareholders Agreement to sell, subject to limited exceptions, all of the shares of Wabtec common stock GE beneficially owns within three years of the closing date of the Merger and prior thereto, to vote all of such shares in the proportion required under the Shareholders Agreement (as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Other Agreements—Shareholders Agreement”).

Subject to adjustment under certain circumstances as set forth in the Merger Agreement, Wabtec will issue approximately 98.4 million shares of Wabtec common stock in the Merger. Based upon the reported closing sale price of $ per share for Wabtec common stock on the NYSE on , 2018, the total value of the shares of Wabtec common stock to be issued by Wabtec in the Merger would be approximately $ and the cash to

TABLE OF CONTENTS

be received by GE in the Transactions, including in respect of the Direct Sale, would be approximately $2.9 billion plus any payments GE receives pursuant to the Tax Matters Agreement. The actual value of the Wabtec common stock to be issued in the Merger will depend on the market price of shares of Wabtec common stock at the time of the Merger.

After the Merger, Wabtec will own and operate the SpinCo Business and the assets acquired in the Direct Sale. It is anticipated that SpinCo, which will be Wabtec’s wholly owned subsidiary, will hold the SpinCo Business and Direct Sale Purchaser, which will also be Wabtec’s wholly owned subsidiary, will hold the assets purchased and the liabilities assumed in connection with the Direct Sale. Together, SpinCo and Direct Sale Purchaser will own and operate post-Transaction GE Transportation. Wabtec will also continue its current businesses. All shares of Wabtec common stock, including those issued in the Merger, will be listed on the NYSE under Wabtec’s current trading symbol “WAB.”

Below is a step-by-step description of the sequence of material events relating to the Transactions.

Step 1 Internal Reorganization

GE will undertake an internal reorganization in which the assets and liabilities of GE Transportation will be segregated from the assets and liabilities of GE’s remaining business.

Step 2 Direct Sale

On the date of the Distribution, immediately prior to the SpinCo Transfer, GE shall sell certain assets of GE Transportation, potentially including the equity interests of certain pre-Transaction subsidiaries of GE that compose part of GE Transportation, to Direct Sale Purchaser for a cash payment of $2.9 billion. Concurrently, the Direct Sale Purchaser will assume certain liabilities of GE Transportation in connection with this purchase.

Wabtec and the other Borrowers entered into the Credit Agreement on June 8, 2018, which includes (i) a $1.2 billion Revolving Credit Facility, (ii) a $350.0 million Refinancing Term Loan and (iii) a $400.0 million Delayed Draw Term Loan. Wabtec also obtained Bridge Commitments in respect of the Bridge Loan Facility in an amount not to exceed $2.5 billion. On September 14, 2018, in accordance with the Commitment Letter, the Bridge Commitments were permanently reduced to $0 in connection with Wabtec’s issuance of $500 million aggregate principal amount of the Floating Rate Notes, $750 million aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Notes and $1.25 billion aggregate principal amount of the 2028 Notes. Wabtec will use funds available under the Delayed Draw Term Loan and the proceeds from the issuance of the New Wabtec Notes to pay the Direct Sale Purchase Price.

Step 3 SpinCo Transfer

On the date of the Distribution, immediately following the Direct Sale, GE shall transfer the SpinCo Business, which will comprise the remaining business and operations of GE Transportation after giving effect to the Direct Sale, to SpinCo and its subsidiaries (to the extent not already held by SpinCo and its subsidiaries). SpinCo will assume certain liabilities of the SpinCo Business.

Step 4 Issuance of SpinCo Common Stock to GE

In connection with the SpinCo Transfer, SpinCo will issue and deliver to GE additional shares of SpinCo common stock. Following this issuance of additional shares to GE, GE will own 8,700,000,000 shares of SpinCo common stock, or such other amount as GE shall determine with Wabtec’s consent, which will constitute all of the outstanding stock of SpinCo.

Step 5 Distribution

Based on market conditions prior to the closing of the Merger, corporate finance considerations and timing considerations, GE will determine whether the Distribution Shares will be distributed to GE stockholders pursuant to a spin-off or a split-off. This prospectus-information statement assumes that the Distribution Shares will be distributed in a spin-off.

In this case, GE will effect the Distribution by distributing on a pro rata basis all of the Distribution Shares to GE stockholders as of the record date for the Distribution. GE will deliver the Distribution Shares to the exchange agent, who will hold such shares for the benefit of GE stockholders.

45

TABLE OF CONTENTS

In the event GE elects to effect the Distribution pursuant to a split-off, GE would offer to holders of GE common stock the right to exchange all or a portion of their GE common stock for a number of Distribution Shares (which, in the aggregate, may be less than all of the Distribution Shares) at a discount to the implied value of the SpinCo common stock (based on the per-share value of Wabtec common stock multiplied by the exchange ratio set forth in the Merger Agreement), subject to proration if the GE stockholders have validly tendered more shares of GE common stock than GE is offering to accept for exchange. In the event the GE Exchange Offer is consummated, GE would distribute the remaining Distribution Shares, if any, on a pro rata basis to GE stockholders whose shares of GE common stock remain outstanding after the consummation of the GE Exchange Offer. Any GE stockholders that validly tender (and do not validly withdraw) shares of GE common stock for shares of SpinCo common stock in the GE Exchange Offer would have, with respect to such tendered shares, waived their rights to receive, and forfeited any rights to, shares of SpinCo common stock subsequently distributed on a pro rata basis to GE stockholders. In connection with the GE Exchange Offer, SpinCo would file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-4 and Form S-1 to register the shares of its common stock that would be distributed to GE stockholders. In addition, Wabtec would file with the SEC an amendment to its registration statement on Form S-4. The terms and conditions of the GE Exchange Offer would be described in SpinCo’s registration statement on Form S-4 and Form S-1 and Wabtec’s amended registration statement on Form S-4. Wabtec and Wabtec stockholders would not be a party to the GE Exchange Offer and would not be asked to separately vote on the GE Exchange Offer or to otherwise participate in the GE Exchange Offer. The information included in this section regarding the GE Exchange Offer is being provided for informational purposes only and does not purport to be complete.

Step 6 Merger

Immediately after the Distribution and on the closing date of the Merger, Merger Sub will merge with and into SpinCo, whereby the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease and SpinCo will continue as the surviving company and a wholly owned subsidiary of Wabtec. In the Merger, subject to adjustment in accordance with the Merger Agreement, each share of SpinCo common stock will be converted into the right to receive a number of shares of Wabtec common stock based on the exchange ratio set forth in the Merger Agreement, as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “The Merger Agreement—Merger Consideration.”

Upon consummation of the Merger and calculated based on Wabtec’s outstanding common stock immediately prior to the Merger on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, 50.1% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock would be held collectively by GE and pre-Merger holders of GE common stock (with approximately 9.9% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock expected to be held by GE) and 49.9% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock would be held by pre-Merger Wabtec stockholders. The shares held by GE will be subject to GE’s obligations under (x) the Tax Matters Agreement to sell a number of shares of Wabtec common stock within two years of the Distribution Date (as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Other Agreements—Tax Matters Agreement”) and (y) the Shareholders Agreement to sell, subject to limited exceptions, all of the shares of Wabtec common stock GE beneficially owns within three years of the closing date of the Merger and prior thereto, to vote all of such shares in the proportion required under the Shareholders Agreement (as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Other Agreements—Shareholders Agreement”).

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Structure following the Merger

After completion of all of the steps described above, it is anticipated that SpinCo, which will be Wabtec’s wholly owned subsidiary, will hold the SpinCo Business and Direct Sale Purchaser, which will also be Wabtec’s wholly owned subsidiary, will hold the assets purchased and the liabilities assumed in connection with the Direct Sale. Together, SpinCo and Direct Sale Purchaser will own and operate post-Transaction GE Transportation.

In connection with the Transactions, on the date of the Distribution, GE or its subsidiaries and SpinCo or the SpinCo Transferred Subsidiaries will enter into the Additional Agreements relating to, among other things, intellectual property, employee matters, tax matters, research and development and transition services. See “Other Agreements.” Pursuant to the Tax Matters Agreement, after completion of all of the steps described above, GE will be obligated to sell a number of shares of Wabtec common stock within two years of the Distribution Date. See “Other Agreements—Tax Matters Agreement.” Pursuant to the Shareholders Agreement, after completion of all of the steps described above, GE will be obligated to sell, subject to limited exceptions, all of the shares of Wabtec common stock GE beneficially owns within three years of the closing date of the Merger (as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Other Agreements—Shareholders Agreement”).

Determination of Number of Shares of SpinCo Common Stock to Be Distributed to GE Stockholders

Immediately prior to the Distribution, the total number of shares of SpinCo common stock outstanding will equal 8,700,000,000 shares or such other amount as GE shall determine with Wabtec’s consent. GE is expected to retain 19.75% of the outstanding shares of SpinCo common stock. Accordingly, assuming that there are outstanding 8,700,000,000 shares of SpinCo common stock immediately prior to the Distribution, the total number of shares of SpinCo common stock to be distributed to holders of GE common stock as a pro rata dividend, which are referred to as the “Distribution Shares,” will be equal to 6,981,750,000 shares. The actual number of shares of SpinCo common stock to be distributed to GE stockholders, and the actual number of shares of SpinCo common stock to be retained by GE, will be determined by GE prior to the Distribution. All shares of SpinCo common stock will be converted into the right to receive shares of Wabtec common stock at the effective time of the Merger.

Based on the number of shares of GE common stock outstanding and the number of shares of Wabtec common stock outstanding, calculated on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, in each case as of November 1, 2018, and assuming that GE distributes 80.25% of the outstanding shares of SpinCo common stock

48

TABLE OF CONTENTS

to GE stockholders in the Distribution, if the Merger had occurred on November 1, 2018, a GE stockholder would have received 1 share of Wabtec common stock for every approximately 110.2 shares of GE common stock held by such GE stockholder on the record date for the Distribution (approximately 0.00907 shares of Wabtec common stock for each share of GE common stock).

No Fractional Shares; Exchange of Certificates

Each issued and outstanding share of SpinCo common stock will be converted in the Merger into the right to receive a number of shares of Wabtec common stock based on the exchange ratio set forth in the Merger Agreement, as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “The Merger Agreement—Merger Consideration.” In the conversion, no fractional shares of Wabtec common stock will be delivered to SpinCo stockholders. All fractional shares of Wabtec common stock that any SpinCo stockholder otherwise would be entitled to receive as a result of the Merger will be aggregated by the exchange agent on behalf of Wabtec. The exchange agent will cause the whole shares obtained thereby to be sold on behalf of the SpinCo stockholders that would otherwise be entitled to receive such fractional shares of Wabtec common stock pursuant to the Merger, in the open market or otherwise, in each case at then-prevailing market prices, and, in no case later than five business days after the Distribution. The exchange agent will make available the net proceeds thereof, subject to the deduction of the amount of any withholding taxes and brokerage charges, commissions and conveyance and similar taxes, on a pro rata basis, without interest, as soon as practicable to the SpinCo stockholders that would otherwise be entitled to receive such fractional shares of Wabtec common stock pursuant to the Merger.

Upon consummation of the Merger, shares of SpinCo common stock held by GE or GE stockholders will no longer be outstanding and will automatically be canceled and retired and will cease to exist. Prior to the Merger, Wabtec will deposit with the exchange agent, for the benefit of holders of SpinCo common stock, book-entry shares representing the shares of Wabtec common stock issuable to the holders of SpinCo common stock in the Merger.

Background of the Transactions

Wabtec continually invests in new products and services with the objective of strategically growing its business, both organically and through acquisitions, joint ventures and other transactions.

GE continually reviews its portfolio to determine whether any changes are advisable and, on June 12, 2017, GE’s incoming Chief Executive Officer announced that GE was initiating a comprehensive review with a focus on each of its businesses’ performance, growth outlook, cost structures, returns and competitive environment.

On June 20, 2017, senior executives of Wabtec and GE met to discuss the railway transportation business generally, the parties’ respective industry outlooks and recent events affecting GE. The meeting was arranged by Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC (“Morgan Stanley”), a financial advisor to GE. At the conclusion of the meeting, the participants agreed to meet again in a few weeks to consider whether discussions of a possible strategic transaction may be worth pursuing.

On July 12, 2017, Wabtec and GE signed a confidentiality agreement. Over the course of the next several months, Wabtec and GE exchanged confidential information and engaged in preliminary discussions about a possible strategic transaction.

In September 2017, Wabtec retained Goldman Sachs as its financial advisor and Jones Day as its legal advisor in connection with the possible strategic transaction.

On November 13, 2017, GE disclosed that it was considering possible strategic alternatives for several businesses of GE, including GE Transportation.

In late November, representatives of Wabtec and GE continued to work on potential synergies that may be involved in a possible transaction and a general outline of potential terms, and agreed that their respective financial advisors should meet to discuss a potential transaction. These meetings occurred in early December 2017.

During the weeks of December 11, 2017 and December 18, 2017, representatives of Wabtec and GE conducted facility tours and engaged in detailed discussions regarding potential synergies that may be realized in a combination of GE Transportation and Wabtec. During this period, Wabtec’s senior management kept the Wabtec Board apprised on a regular basis on the progress of the discussions with respect to the possible transaction.

49

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Wabtec management also reviewed the preliminary discussions about a strategic transaction with respect to GE Transportation with the Wabtec Board at the Wabtec Board meetings held on December 4, 2017, January 26, 2018, February 5-6, 2018, February 20, 2018 and March 6, 2018. In each such meeting, the Wabtec Board directed Wabtec’s senior management to continue discussions with GE, although the Wabtec Board recognized that transactions like the possible transaction were difficult to negotiate due to their scope and complexity.

Discussions and due diligence progressed during January 2018, February 2018 and March 2018. Early during that time period, representatives of Wabtec and GE began to focus on a possible transaction in which Wabtec and GE Transportation would be combined in a “Reverse Morris Trust” transaction in which GE Transportation would be either spun off or split-off to GE stockholders and thereafter merged with a subsidiary of Wabtec whereby GE stockholders would receive a majority of the common stock of the combined company on a tax-free basis.

On January 26, 2018, following a meeting of the Wabtec Board, Wabtec’s CEO sent to GE’s Head of Corporate Development a proposed term sheet for a possible combination of Wabtec and GE Transportation. The parties negotiated the proposed term sheet over the next several weeks, including the allocation of value between Wabtec and GE.

GE senior management met with the GE Board and various committees of the GE Board on numerous occasions in 2018 to discuss progress on the discussions with Wabtec while continuing to explore other strategic alternatives for GE Transportation, including an initial public offering.

Following the exchange of draft term sheets over the next several weeks and continuing due diligence, on March 19, 2018, Wabtec and GE signed a term sheet outlining the key high-level terms of a possible transaction. The term sheet was nonbinding except for certain customary binding provisions, including an exclusivity provision under which GE agreed to work exclusively with Wabtec on the possible transaction for 30 days. The term sheet contemplated a possible Reverse Morris Trust transaction for the combination of Wabtec and GE Transportation whereby GE would receive a cash payment from SpinCo in the range of $2.9 billion to $3.0 billion and GE stockholders would receive a majority of the combined company’s common stock, with the amount of the cash payment and percentage of common stock being subject to continued discussions. The notion that a portion of the consideration to GE would be payable in cash was part of the parties’ discussions from the outset, in part because such payments are typical in Reverse Morris Trust transactions.

The Wabtec Board met on April 16, 2018 to review the possible transaction in detail. Representatives of Goldman Sachs and Jones Day participated in the meeting. At the meeting, Wabtec’s senior management reviewed the strategic and financial rationale of the possible transaction, the results of due diligence and discussions with GE to date. A representative of Jones Day reviewed the Wabtec directors’ fiduciary duties in the circumstances, the material terms of draft transaction documentation, the major open issues at the time and the major actions involved in the possible transaction. The Transactions were considered by the Wabtec Board at this and subsequent meetings as a potential alternative to Wabtec continuing to operate pursuant to its existing business plan under its existing capital structure. The representatives of Goldman Sachs then provided a financial review of the possible transaction. Following these discussions, the Wabtec Board directed Wabtec’s management and legal and financial advisors to continue discussions with representatives of GE.

In April and through May 20, 2018, the parties continued due diligence and exchanged drafts of the principal Transaction Documents. Representatives of GE, including representatives from Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, GE’s legal counsel, and Morgan Stanley and Dyal & Co. LLC (“Dyal”), GE’s financial advisors, and representatives of Wabtec, including representatives from Jones Day and Goldman Sachs, met on a substantially continuous basis in New York City in respect of the possible transaction and the principal Transaction Documents during most of the first three weeks of May 2018. Key terms negotiated in this period included:

| • | the portion of Wabtec common stock to be owned by GE and GE stockholders following the consummation of the Transactions;

| • | the terms of the cash and debt purchase price adjustments;

| • | the pro forma leverage and indebtedness of the combined company;

| • | the allocation of certain liabilities of GE Transportation;

50

TABLE OF CONTENTS

| • | the amount of the cash payment to GE of $2.9 billion, in line with the $2.9 billion–$3.0 billion amount reflected in the March 2018 nonbinding term sheet;

| • | the parties’ decision that it would be in their mutual interests to pursue the Direct Sale rather than having SpinCo incur debt and distribute an exit dividend to GE, because the modified Reverse Morris Trust structure should result in tax benefits to Wabtec (including by avoiding certain ambiguities under the depreciation rules in U.S. federal income tax law that otherwise might be relevant), which will be shared between the parties (up to a cap) as realized by Wabtec after the Merger. The Direct Sale also should reduce administrative complexity and financing costs;

| • | provisions relating to the composition of the Wabtec Board following the closing of the Transactions;

| • | provisions relating to closing certainty, including obligations to seek antitrust approvals, termination fees and certain closing conditions;

| • | the terms of the tax matters agreement, including terms governing payments to be made to GE in respect of certain tax benefits expected to be realized by the combined company as a result of the Transactions;

| • | obligations of various Wabtec parties to support the Transactions; and

| • | GE retaining a portion of the interest in SpinCo rather than distributing it to GE stockholders and the terms of the Shareholders Agreement that would apply in respect of GE’s ownership of Wabtec shares that would be issued in the Merger in respect of that retained interest.

The GE Board met on May 17, 2018 and unanimously approved the Transactions.

On May 14, 2018 and May 19, 2018, the Wabtec Board met to review the possible transaction. Representatives of Goldman Sachs and Jones Day participated in the meetings. At the May 19, 2018 meeting, Wabtec’s senior management reviewed the strategic and financial rationale of the possible transaction, and the final results of due diligence and economic terms of the possible transaction. A representative of Jones Day reviewed the Wabtec directors’ fiduciary duties in the circumstances, and the material terms of drafts of the principal Transaction Documents. The representatives of Goldman Sachs then provided a financial review of the possible transaction. At the meeting on May 19, 2018, Goldman Sachs rendered to the Wabtec Board its oral opinion, which was subsequently confirmed by delivery of a written opinion, dated May 20, 2018, that, as of the date of such written opinion and based upon and subject to the factors and assumptions as set forth in such written opinion, the Aggregate Consideration to be paid by Wabtec pursuant to the Merger Agreement was fair from a financial point of view to Wabtec (See “The Transactions—Opinion of Wabtec’s Financial Advisor”). A representative of Jones Day also provided an update on the status of the debt financing (See “Debt Financing”), as well as the various Transaction Documents. Following discussions with Wabtec management and Wabtec’s legal and financial advisors, the Wabtec Board unanimously determined that the Transactions, as well as the Wabtec Charter Amendment and the Share Issuance, were advisable and in the best interests of Wabtec and its stockholders, and approved the Transactions and the Transaction Documents, including the Wabtec Charter Amendment, the Share Issuance and the proposed debt financing.

Over the May 19-20, 2018 weekend, representatives of Wabtec and GE finalized the Transaction Documents providing for the Transactions.

On May 20, 2018, Wabtec and GE publicly announced the Transactions.

At a special meeting held on November 14, 2018, Wabtec stockholders approved the Share Issuance and the Wabtec Charter Amendment.

Wabtec’s Reasons for the Transactions

In deciding to approve the Transactions, as well as the Wabtec Charter Amendment and the Share Issuance, the Wabtec Board, in consultation with Wabtec’s senior management and financial advisors, considered, among other things, the potential strategic benefits to be achieved by combining GE Transportation and Wabtec relative to Wabtec’s prospects on a standalone basis, the expected financial benefits of the Transactions and the terms of Transactions and Transaction Documents, as well as potential risks and negative considerations associated with the Transactions.

51

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Factors Supporting the Transactions

The Wabtec Board considered the following factors, among others, as supporting its decision to approve the Transactions:

Strategic Benefits

| • | The combined company is expected to be a diversified global leader in the transportation and logistics business with pro forma 2017 combined revenues of $8 billion;

| • | the combined company is expected to be better positioned to meet anticipated growth in demand for train intelligence and network optimization products; and

| • | Wabtec’s and GE Transportation’s respective businesses are believed to be complementary with a large, global installed customer base. It is anticipated that the combined company will have the ability to provide customers with more desirable and affordable solutions and aftermarket services in rapidly evolving categories than the two companies would have separately.

Financial Benefits

| • | Wabtec believes that the combination will occur at an attractive time in the railway industry cycle and expects significant growth in revenue and adjusted EBITDA as the cycle rebounds from trough levels;

| • | the Transactions are expected to be accretive to cash earnings per share beginning in the first full year after the closing of the Transactions;

| • | Wabtec expects to realize $250 million total run-rate operating synergies, driven by cost and revenue opportunities, within four years after the closing of the Transactions;

| • | the step-up in tax basis associated with the Transactions is expected by Wabtec to result in average annual cash tax benefits for 15 years of $150.0 million, with the first $470.0 million of cumulative cash benefits to be paid to GE and the remainder (which Wabtec estimated at a net present value of $1.1 billion) to accrue to the combined company;

| • | the combined company has forecasted future cash flows which Wabtec expects will allow for rapid deleveraging after the closing of the Transactions and enable the combined company to maintain an investment grade debt rating; and

| • | the Transactions were valued by the Wabtec Board at $11.1 billion based on the Wabtec share price of $83.79 on April 19, 2018—the last unaffected trading day prior to media speculation regarding a potential transaction. When adjusted for the estimated net tax step-up value of $1.1 billion accruing to the combined company, the Transactions were valued by the Wabtec Board at $10.0 billion. The Wabtec Board considered that these valuations were favorable.

Transaction Terms

| • | The Transactions, including the aggregate consideration being paid by Wabtec in the Transactions, were the result of extensive arms’-length negotiations between Wabtec and GE;

| • | the prospective financial results of GE Transportation (as well as the risks involved in achieving those results), the fit of GE Transportation with Wabtec’s previously established strategic goals (which include adding capabilities, expanding customer and geographic access and increasing scale) and the results of Wabtec’s due diligence review of GE Transportation;

| • | the opinion of Goldman Sachs, dated May 20, 2018, to the Wabtec Board that, as of such date and based upon and subject to the factors and assumptions as set forth in such opinion, the Aggregate Consideration being paid by Wabtec pursuant to the Merger Agreement was fair from a financial point of view to Wabtec, as more fully described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “The Transactions—Opinion of Wabtec’s Financial Advisor”;

| • | the Wabtec Board would be expanded to include three additional directors, each of whom shall be independent as defined in the listing standards of the NYSE, to be designated by GE;

52

TABLE OF CONTENTS

| • | immediately following the consummation of the Transactions, the current executive officers of Wabtec would continue in their current positions, with additional executive management talent to be gained from former management of GE Transportation and the other changes described in “Information on Wabtec—Directors and Officers of Wabtec Before and After the Consummation of the Transactions”;

| • | the Transactions are expected to be approved by regulatory authorities without significant disruption in the business of Wabtec or GE Transportation; and

| • | the Merger Agreement permits the Wabtec Board in certain circumstances to withdraw or modify its recommendation that Wabtec stockholders approve the Wabtec Charter Amendment and the Share Issuance, subject to the payment of a termination fee in certain circumstances.

Potential Risks and Negative Considerations

The Wabtec Board also considered, among other things, the following potential risks and other potentially negative considerations associated with the Transactions, but determined that the benefits of the Transactions substantially outweighed such risks and other considerations:

| • | The inability of Wabtec to influence the operations of GE Transportation during the potentially significant time period prior to consummating the Transactions;

| • | the possibility that the increased revenues, earnings and efficiencies expected to result from the Transactions would fail to materialize in whole or part;

| • | the challenges inherent in fully and successfully separating the operations of GE Transportation from GE and integrating such business with Wabtec, especially given that GE Transportation is similar in size and scope to Wabtec’s business;

| • | the significant, one-time costs expected to be incurred in connection with the Transactions, including approximately $35.0 million of financing-related fees, approximately $60.0 million of transaction-related costs (including advisory, legal, accounting and professional fees) and approximately $88.0 million of transition and integration-related costs (a portion of which will be incremental capital spending), that Wabtec management believes will be necessary to realize the anticipated synergies from the Transactions;

| • | the potential impact of the restrictions under the Merger Agreement on Wabtec’s ability to take certain actions during the period between execution of the Merger Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions, generally requiring Wabtec to conduct business only in the ordinary course or, if not in the ordinary course, to first seek and obtain GE’s consent (which could delay or prevent Wabtec from undertaking business opportunities that may arise pending completion of the Transactions) and restricting the ability of Wabtec to pursue certain strategic transactions;

| • | the dilution of the ownership interest of Wabtec’s current stockholders that would result from the Share Issuance and that Wabtec’s current stockholders, as a group, would control less than a majority of Wabtec’s outstanding common stock after consummation of the Transactions;

| • | the fact that GE will acquire 9.9% of Wabtec’s common shares in the Transactions, including the possible effects that a sale of this stake would have on Wabtec’s stock price;

| • | potential difficulties in integrating the management and operating personnel of Wabtec and GE Transportation, including the risk of losing key personnel due to uncertainties over future roles;

| • | the risk that the Transactions and integration of GE Transportation with Wabtec may divert management attention and resources away from other strategic opportunities and from operational matters;

| • | the operations of the business of GE Transportation will be dependent in part on the provision of transition services by GE for a period of time after the consummation of the Transactions;

| • | the need for Wabtec to incur substantial indebtedness in connection with the Transactions;

| • | the potential payment of a termination fee of $300 million by Wabtec in certain circumstances, including in certain circumstances based on regulatory challenges to the Transactions;

53

TABLE OF CONTENTS

| • | the restrictions imposed on Wabtec’s ability to take certain corporate actions under the terms of the Tax Matters Agreement, which could reduce its ability to engage in certain future business transactions that might be advantageous;

| • | the absence of an indemnity from GE for breaches of representations and warranties;

| • | the possibility that the Transactions may not be consummated and the potential adverse consequences, including substantial costs that would be incurred and potential damage to Wabtec’s reputation, if the Transactions are not completed; and

| • | the other risks described under the section entitled “Risk Factors—Risks Related to the Transactions” beginning on page 26 of this prospectus-information statement.

The foregoing discussion of the information and factors considered by the Wabtec Board is not exhaustive, but includes the material factors considered by the Wabtec Board, including factors that support the Transactions as well as those that weigh against them. In view of the wide variety of factors considered by the Wabtec Board in connection with its evaluation of the Transactions and the complexity of these matters, the Wabtec Board was not asked to, nor did it attempt to, quantify, rank or otherwise assign relative weights to the specific factors that it considered in reaching its decision. Rather, the Wabtec Board based its recommendation on the totality of the information presented to and considered by it. The Wabtec Board evaluated the factors described above with the assistance of Wabtec’s senior management and legal and financial advisors. In considering the factors described above, individual members of the Wabtec Board gave different weights to other or different factors.

This explanation of the factors considered by the Wabtec Board is in part forward-looking in nature and, therefore, should be read in light of the factors discussed in the sections of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Cautionary Statement on Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors—Risks Related to the Transactions” beginning on pages 43 and 26, respectively, of this prospectus-information statement.

After careful consideration, the Wabtec Board unanimously approved the Merger Agreement, the Separation Agreement, the Transactions, as well as the Share Issuance and the Wabtec Charter Amendment, and determined that the Merger Agreement, the Separation Agreement and the Transactions are advisable and in the best interests of Wabtec and its stockholders.

GE’s Reasons for the Transactions

As discussed in the section of this document entitled “—Background of the Transactions,” GE continually reviews its portfolio to determine whether any changes are advisable and, on June 12, 2017, GE’s incoming Chief Executive Officer announced that GE was initiating a comprehensive review with a focus on each of its business’s performance, growth outlook, cost structures, returns and competitive environment. As part of that review, in November 2017, the GE Board and GE’s senior management determined that a strategic transaction involving GE Transportation was in the best interest of GE and GE stockholders. The GE Board believes that the Transactions will accomplish a number of important business objectives for GE, as well as provide enhanced opportunities for the combined business of Wabtec and GE Transportation.

In reaching a decision to approve the Merger Agreement, the Separation Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and to proceed with the Transactions, the GE Board and GE’s senior management, in consultation with its financial advisors, considered a variety of factors, including the significant factors listed below in support of the decision:

| • | GE’s knowledge of GE Transportation’s business, financial condition, results of operations, industries and competitive environments and the results of the due diligence review of Wabtec’s business conducted by GE’s management and advisors, including an analysis of the potential synergies of the combined company, which are expected to be significant;

| • | the Transactions could enable GE Transportation as part of the combined company to have greater flexibility in deploying its capital and allocating resources in a manner more directly aligned with its business objectives and more consistent with its peers;

| • | the Transactions would enable GE to focus on its core business segments;

54

TABLE OF CONTENTS

| • | GE’s review of strategic options for GE Transportation and the belief of GE, following such review, that the Transactions could provide more value to GE and GE stockholders than other potential strategic options for GE Transportation, including (1) retaining GE Transportation, (2) consummating an initial public offering for GE Transportation or (3) separating GE Transportation through an alternative transaction;

| • | the belief of GE senior management that the Transactions reflect a compelling valuation for GE Transportation, including the fact that the Transactions provide that (1) GE would receive $2,900,000,000 in cash in connection with the Transactions and (2) upon the consummation of the Merger and calculated based on Wabtec’s outstanding common stock immediately prior to the Merger on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, pre-Merger holders of GE common stock would own 40.2% and GE would own 9.9% of the combined company (subject to GE’s right to increase the portion of the combined company owned by GE stockholders, subject to a corresponding reduction in GE’s ownership of the combined company) and would have the opportunity to participate in any increase in the value of the shares of Wabtec common stock, including potential increases in stockholder value associated with executing on the identified synergy opportunities, and GE would receive cash proceeds from the future disposition of the Wabtec shares it receives in the Merger, which cash would be available for other uses by GE;

| • | the fact that three individuals designated by GE would, subject to the designees being independent under NYSE listing standards and reasonably acceptable to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Wabtec Board, be directors of the combined company for an agreed-upon period of time following the Merger;

| • | the complementary nature of the service offerings of GE Transportation with those of Wabtec, the greater scale that would be created through the combination of GE Transportation with Wabtec and the opportunity for the combined company to (1) have an increased future growth rate, earnings and prospects compared to the future growth rate, earnings and prospects of GE Transportation on a stand-alone basis and (2) create greater opportunities for GE Transportation employees and enhanced offerings for GE Transportation customers; and

| • | the review by the GE Board, with the assistance of GE’s management and business, legal and financial advisors, of the structure and terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, the Separation Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. For more information, see “The Merger Agreement,” “The Separation Agreement” and “Other Agreements.”

In the course of its deliberations and consideration of the Transactions, the GE Board also considered a variety of risks and potentially negative factors, including the following:

| • | the risk one or more of the conditions to the parties’ obligations to complete the Transactions will not be satisfied or waived (potentially including the condition that the Wabtec stockholders approve the Share Issuance proposal and the Wabtec Charter Amendment proposal), which, while not expected, could cause the Transactions not to be completed;

| • | the fact that the time between the signing of the Merger Agreement and the closing could be an extended period and the uncertainty created for GE Transportation and its employees during that period;

| • | the value of the Wabtec common stock to be received in the Merger could fluctuate, perhaps significantly, based on a variety of factors many of which are outside of the control of GE and are unrelated to the performance of GE Transportation and some of which are outside of the control of GE and Wabtec, including general stock market conditions, the liquidity of Wabtec common stock and the performance of Wabtec’s business;

| • | the risk that failure to complete the Transactions could negatively affect the price of GE common stock and GE’s future business, financial condition and operating results;

| • | risks relating to the separation of GE Transportation from GE and the operation of GE Transportation separate from the other GE businesses, including the costs of separation, and the risk of not realizing the anticipated benefits of the separation;

55

TABLE OF CONTENTS

| • | risks relating to the integration of GE Transportation with the business and operations of Wabtec and the fact that the synergies and cost savings anticipated by the parties might not be realized or might take longer to be realized than anticipated, including risks relating to maintaining and renewing relationships with customers, suppliers and other third parties important to GE Transportation and the business and operations of Wabtec;

| • | the risk that GE, SpinCo and Wabtec may be unable to retain key employees;

| • | the possibility that the Transactions may not result in the anticipated tax treatment for GE’s stockholders, including for reasons beyond the control of GE or Wabtec;

| • | that GE, prior to the completion of the Transactions, is required to conduct the business of GE Transportation in the ordinary course, subject to specific limitations and exceptions, which could delay or prevent GE Transportation from undertaking business opportunities that may arise prior to the completion of the Transactions;

| • | the potential risk of diverting GE and GE Transportation management focus and resources from operational matters and other strategic opportunities while working to implement the Transactions;

| • | GE’s obligations under the Transaction Documents, including, among others, its obligations under (x) the Tax Matters Agreement to sell a number of shares of Wabtec common stock within two years of the Distribution Date (as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Other Agreements—Tax Matters Agreement”) and (y) the Shareholders Agreement to, among other things, sell, subject to limited exceptions, all of the shares of Wabtec common stock GE beneficially owns within three years of the closing date of the Merger and prior thereto, to vote all of such shares in the proportion required under the Shareholders Agreement (as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Other Agreements—Shareholders Agreement”); and

| • | risks of the type and nature described under the section of this document titled “Risk Factors.”

This discussion of the information and factors considered by the GE Board is not exhaustive. In view of the wide variety of factors considered by the GE Board in connection with the evaluation of the strategic alternatives available to GE for GE Transportation and the evaluation of the Transactions and in view of the complexity of the factors considered, the GE Board did not consider it practical to, nor did it attempt to, quantify, rank or assign relative weights to the factors that it considered in making its decision to approve the Merger Agreement, the Separation Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the Transactions. Instead, the GE Board considered the factors described above, among others, and decided to approve the Merger Agreement, the Separation Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the Transactions. In considering the factors described above and any other factors, individual members of the GE Board may have viewed factors differently or given different weight, merit or consideration to different factors.

This discussion of GE’s reasons for the Transactions is forward looking in nature and should be read in light of the factors discussed in the sections of this document entitled “Cautionary Statement on Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors.”

Opinion of Wabtec’s Financial Advisor

Goldman Sachs rendered to the Wabtec Board its oral opinion, which was subsequently confirmed by delivery of a written opinion, dated May 20, 2018, that, as of the date of such written opinion and based upon and subject to the factors and assumptions as set forth in such written opinion, the Aggregate Consideration to be paid by Wabtec pursuant to the Merger Agreement was fair from a financial point of view to Wabtec.

For purposes of rendering its opinion, Goldman Sachs, with Wabtec’s consent, relied upon and assumed the accuracy and completeness of all of the financial, legal, regulatory, tax, accounting and other information provided to, discussed with or reviewed by, it, without assuming any responsibility for independent verification thereof. In that regard, Goldman Sachs assumed with Wabtec’s consent that the Forecasts, the Synergies, the Adjustment Estimates and the TMA Payment Estimates were reasonably prepared on a basis reflecting the best currently available estimates and judgments of the management of Wabtec. Goldman Sachs did not make an independent evaluation or appraisal of the assets and liabilities (including any contingent, derivative or other off-balance-sheet assets and liabilities) of Wabtec, SpinCo, Merger Sub or GE or any of their respective subsidiaries and it was not furnished with any such evaluation or appraisal. Goldman Sachs assumed that all governmental, regulatory or other consents and approvals necessary for the consummation of the Transactions will be obtained without any adverse effect on Wabtec, GE Transportation or SpinCo or on the expected benefits

of the Transactions in any way meaningful to its analysis. Goldman Sachs has also assumed that the Transactions will be consummated on the terms set forth in the Merger Agreement, Separation Agreement and Tax Matters Agreement, without the waiver or modification of any term or condition the effect of which would be in any way meaningful to its analysis.

Goldman Sachs’ opinion does not address the underlying business decision of Wabtec to engage in the Transactions, or the relative merits of the Transactions as compared to any strategic alternatives that may be available to Wabtec; nor does it address any legal, regulatory, tax or accounting matters. Goldman Sachs’ opinion addresses only the fairness from a financial point of view to Wabtec, as of May 20, 2018, of the Aggregate Consideration to be paid by Wabtec pursuant to the Merger Agreement. Goldman Sachs’ opinion does not express any view on, and does not address, any other term or aspect of the Merger Agreement, Separation Agreement or Tax Matters Agreement or the Transactions or any term or aspect of any other agreement or instrument contemplated by the Merger Agreement, Separation Agreement or Tax Matters Agreement or entered into or amended in connection with the Transactions, including, without limitation, the Shareholders Agreement, the Tax Matters Agreement, the Employee Matters Agreement, the Internal Reorganization, the SpinCo Transfer, the Distribution, any allocation of the Aggregate Consideration or liabilities assumed as part of the Direct Sale or any indemnification or adjustments contemplated by the Transaction Documents; the fairness of the Transactions to, or any consideration received in connection therewith by, the holders of any class of securities, creditors, or other constituencies of Wabtec; nor as to the fairness of the amount or nature of any compensation to be paid or payable to any of the officers, directors or employees of Wabtec, SpinCo or GE, or any class of such persons, in connection with the Transactions, whether relative to the Aggregate Consideration to be paid by Wabtec pursuant to the Merger Agreement or otherwise. Goldman Sachs’ opinion was necessarily based on economic, monetary, market and other conditions as in effect on, and the information made available to Goldman Sachs as of, the date of the opinion and Goldman Sachs assumed no responsibility for updating, revising or reaffirming its opinion based on circumstances, developments or events occurring after the date of its opinion. In addition, Goldman Sachs did not express any opinion as to the prices at which shares of Wabtec common stock will trade at any time or as to the impact of the Transactions on the solvency or viability of Wabtec, SpinCo, Merger Sub, GE Transportation or GE or the ability of Wabtec, SpinCo, Merger Sub, GE Transportation or GE to pay their respective obligations when they come due. Goldman Sachs’ opinion was approved by a fairness committee of Goldman Sachs.

The following is a summary of the material financial analyses delivered by Goldman Sachs to the Wabtec Board in connection with rendering the opinion described above. The following summary, however, does not purport to be a complete description of the financial analyses performed by Goldman Sachs, nor does the order of analyses described represent relative importance or weight given to those analyses by Goldman Sachs. Some of the summaries of the financial analyses include information presented in tabular format. The tables must be read together with the full text of each summary and are alone not a complete description of Goldman Sachs’ financial analyses. Except as otherwise noted, the following quantitative information, to the extent that it is based on market data, is based on market data as it existed on or before May 17, 2018 and is not necessarily indicative of current market conditions.

Financial Analyses of GE Transportation

Analysis of Implied Transaction Values. Goldman Sachs calculated the implied enterprise value (“EV”) of GE Transportation by adding the $2.9 billion cash payment to be received by GE to the implied value of the shares of Wabtec common stock to be issued in the Transactions. Goldman Sachs calculated the implied value of such shares of Wabtec common stock by using $83.79 per share, which was the closing trading price per share of Wabtec common stock on April 19, 2018, which was the last closing price prior to media reports about the Transactions (the “Undisturbed Price”), and the closing price per share of Wabtec common stock on May 17, 2018 (the “May 17, 2018 Price”). The implied EV of GE Transportation, using the Undisturbed Price, was $11.1 billion and the implied EV of GE Transportation, using the May 17, 2018 Price, was $12.2 billion. Goldman Sachs then adjusted these implied EV calculations for GE Transportation to take into account the net present value of the tax attributes of the Transactions that would accrue to Wabtec pro forma for the Transactions. Goldman Sachs used the Forecasts and applied an illustrative discount rate of 7.0%, which represented a mid-point between an illustrative cost of debt and an illustrative weighted average cost of capital for Wabtec pro forma for the Transactions, to determine the net present value of these tax attributes. The illustrative implied EV of GE Transportation as adjusted to take into account these tax attributes was $10.0 billion, when using the Undisturbed Price, and $11.1 billion, when using the May 17, 2018 Price.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Selected Companies Analysis. Goldman Sachs reviewed and compared certain financial information for Wabtec and the following publicly traded companies in the rail infrastructure and equipment industry (collectively referred to as the “Rail Infrastructure & Equipment Selected Companies”), the rail car industry (collectively referred to as the “Rail Car Selected Companies”) and the diversified industrials/transportation industry (collectively referred to as the “Diversified Industrials/Transportation Selected Companies”, and together with Rail Infrastructure & Equipment Selected Companies and the Rail Car Selected Companies, the “Selected Companies”):

Rail Infrastructure & Equipment Selected Companies

| • | Talgo

| • | CAF

| • | Vossloh

| • | Alstom

| • | Ansaldo

Rail Car Selected Companies

| • | Greenbrier

| • | American Rail Car

| • | Trinity

Diversified Industrials/Transportation Selected Companies

| • | Allison Transmission

| • | Caterpillar

| • | Cummins

| • | Paccar

Although none of the Selected Companies is directly comparable to GE Transportation, the companies included were chosen because they are publicly traded companies that, for the purposes of analysis, may be considered similar to certain operations of GE Transportation.

Goldman Sachs calculated and compared public market multiples for Wabtec and mean public market multiples for each of the Rail Infrastructure & Equipment Selected Companies, the Rail Car Selected Companies and the Diversified Industrials/Transportation Selected Companies, in each case using information from publicly available historical data, publicly available market data and Institutional Brokers’ Estimate System consensus estimates.

Goldman Sachs calculated these public market multiples by dividing the EV for each of the selected companies and Wabtec (using the closing trading price per share of each company’s stock as of May 17, 2018 and, in the case of Wabtec, the Undisturbed Price, as well the latest available net debt amounts as of the dates of such trading prices) by earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) for the last reported 12 months (“LTM EBITDA”), for the next 12 months (“NTM EBITDA”), and for the one-year forward calendar year (“CY+2 EBITDA”). In addition, Goldman Sachs calculated (using historical trading prices and publicly available financial data) the average over the last five years (“Through the Cycle”), for Wabtec and the Selected Companies, of the EV/LTM EBITDA, EV/NTM EBITDA and EV/CY+2 EBITDA multiples. The Through the Cycle metrics are intended to present multiples based on normalized EBITDA in view of the cyclical nature of the industry. The following table presents the results of this analysis:

| EV/LTM EBITDA | EV/LTM EBITDA Through the Cycle | EV/NTM EBITDA | EV/NTM EBITDA Through the Cycle | EV/CY+2 EBITDA | EV/CY+2 EBITDA Through the Cycle
Wabtec |  | 17.9x |  |  | 14.3x |  |  | 14.7x |  |  | 12.5x |  |  | 13.8x |  |  | 12.0x |
Median of Rail Infrastructure & Equipment Selected Companies |  | 9.3x |  |  | 10.1x |  |  | 8.8x |  |  | 8.5x |  |  | 8.1x |  |  | 8.4x |
Median of Rail Car Selected Companies |  | 9.3x |  |  | 6.6x |  |  | 8.3x |  |  | 6.4x |  |  | 9.1x |  |  | 6.7x |
Median of Diversified Industrials/ Transportation Selected Companies |  | 8.6x |  |  | 9.2x |  |  | 8.0x |  |  | 8.9x |  |  | 7.8x |  |  | 8.7x |

59

TABLE OF CONTENTS

In addition, Goldman Sachs calculated illustrative EV/EBITDA multiples for GE Transportation using the implied EV for GE Transportation (calculated using the Undisturbed Price and the May 17, 2018 Price, and with and without adjustment to the implied EV to account for the net present value of the tax attributes of the Transactions that would accrue to Wabtec pro forma for the Transactions as described above) and using the Forecasts and Synergies. The inclusion of these tax attributes is intended to present the implied EV for GE Transportation inclusive of these benefits of the transaction to Wabtec, while the exclusion of these tax attributes is intended to present the implied EV of GE Transportation reflective of GE Transportation on a stand-alone basis from a tax attributes perspective. The following table presents the results of this analysis:

| Multiple (Undisturbed Price) | Multiple (May 17, 2018 Price)
EV*/2018E EBITDA (Forecasts, No Synergies) |  | 15.0x |  |  | 16.4x |
EV*/2019E EBITDA (Forecasts, No Synergies) |  | 10.9x |  |  | 11.9x |
EV*/2021E EBITDA (Forecasts, No Synergies)*** |  | 9.0x |  |  | 9.9x |
EV*/2018E EBITDA (Forecasts with Synergies) |  | 11.2x |  |  | 12.3x |
EV*/2019E EBITDA (Forecasts with Synergies) |  | 8.7x |  |  | 9.5x |
EV*/2021E EBITDA (Forecasts with Synergies)*** |  | 7.5x |  |  | 8.2x |
EV**/2018E EBITDA (Forecasts with Synergies) |  | 10.1x |  |  | 11.2x |
EV**/2019E EBITDA (Forecasts with Synergies) |  | 7.9x |  |  | 8.7x |
EV**/2021E EBITDA (Forecasts with Synergies)*** |  | 6.8x |  |  | 7.5x |

| * | No adjustment to implied EV to take into account the tax attributes of the Transaction

| ** | Adjustment to implied EV to take into account the tax attributes of the Transaction

| *** | Management of Wabtec instructed Goldman Sachs that these 2021 estimates were comparable to Through the Cycle estimates

Goldman Sachs then applied an illustrative range of multiples of 9.0x to 12.0x to the estimated EBITDA for GE Transportation for 2019 contained in the Forecasts and an illustrative range of multiples of 8.5x to 10.5x to the estimated EBITDA for GE Transportation for 2021 contained in the Forecasts, which management of Wabtec had instructed Goldman Sachs were comparable to Through the Cycle estimates, to calculate the following illustrative ranges of implied EVs for GE Transportation: $9.2 billion to $12.3 billion, and $10.5 billion to $13.0 billion, respectively.

Selected Transactions Analysis. Goldman Sachs analyzed certain publicly available information relating to the following selected transactions in the rail transportation industry (the “Rail Transportation Selected Transactions”) during the preceding 16 years. Based on Goldman Sachs’ professional judgment and experience, these transactions comprised all the transactions that met these criteria and, to the extent available, the data from these transactions were all considered equally without giving weight to the available data from any transaction in particular:

TABLE OF CONTENTS

For each of the Rail Transportation Selected Transactions, Goldman Sachs calculated and compared the EV of the target company or business segment, as applicable, as implied by the transaction value, as a multiple of the target company or business segment’s EBITDA, based on publicly available information for the 12-month period prior to the announcement of the transaction. The following table presents the results of this analysis.

| EV/LTM EBITDA
High |  | 14.7x |
Median |  | 9.7x |
Low |  | 8.5x |

Goldman Sachs viewed this range of multiples for these selected transactions as illustrative of Through the Cycle multiples.

While none of the companies or business segments that participated in the Rail Transportation Selected Transactions is directly comparable to GE Transportation, such companies and business segments have operations that, for purposes of analysis, may be considered similar to certain of GE Transportation’s results, market size and product profile.

Goldman Sachs also analyzed certain publicly available information relating to the following selected transactions in the high quality industrial sector (the “High Quality Industrial Selected Transactions”). Based on Goldman Sachs’ professional judgment and experience, these transactions comprised all the transactions that met these criteria and, to the extent available, the data from these transactions were all considered equally without giving weight to the available data from any transaction in particular:

TABLE OF CONTENTS

While none of the companies or business segments that participated in the High Quality Industrial Selected Transactions is directly comparable to GE Transportation, such companies and business segments have operations that, for purposes of analysis, may be considered similar to certain of GE Transportation’s results, market size and product profile.

Goldman Sachs then applied an illustrative range of multiples of 9.0x to 11.0x to the estimated EBITDA for GE Transportation for 2021 contained in the Forecasts, which Management of Wabtec had instructed Goldman Sachs were comparable to Through the Cycle estimates, and an illustrative range of multiples of 8.5x to 14.7x to the historical EBITDA for GE Transportation for 2017, as provided by Wabtec management, to calculate the following illustrative ranges of implied EVs for GE Transportation: $11.1 billion to $13.6 billion, and $7.0 billion to $12.1 billion, respectively.

Illustrative Discounted Cash Flow Analysis. Using the Forecasts, Goldman Sachs performed an illustrative discounted cash flow analysis on GE Transportation. Using discount rates ranging from 9.0% to 10.0%, reflecting estimates of GE Transportation’s weighted average cost of capital, Goldman Sachs discounted to present value as of April 2018 (i) estimates of unlevered free cash flow for GE Transportation for the final 9 months of 2018 through year-end 2022 as reflected in the Forecasts and (ii) a range of illustrative terminal values for GE Transportation, which were calculated by applying perpetuity growth rates ranging from 2.5% to 3.5%, to a terminal year estimate of the free cash flow to be generated by GE Transportation, as reflected in the Forecasts (which analysis implied exit terminal year EBITDA multiples ranging from 10.0x to 13.7x). Goldman Sachs derived such discount rates by application of the Capital Asset Pricing Model, which requires certain company-specific inputs, including the company’s target capital structure weightings, the cost of long-term debt, after-tax yield on permanent excess cash, if any, future applicable marginal cash tax rate and a beta for the company, as well as certain financial metrics for the United States financial markets generally. The range of perpetuity growth rates was estimated by Goldman Sachs utilizing its professional judgment and experience, taking into account the Forecasts and market expectations regarding long-term real growth of gross domestic product and inflation. Goldman Sachs then added the ranges of present values it derived above to derive a range of illustrative EVs for GE Transportation ranging from $10.4 billion to $13.8 billion.

Financial Analyses of Wabtec (Standalone)

Illustrative Discounted Cash Flow Analysis. Using the Forecasts, Goldman Sachs performed an illustrative discounted cash flow analysis on Wabtec. Using discount rates ranging from 9.0% to 10.0%, reflecting estimates of Wabtec’s weighted average cost of capital, Goldman Sachs discounted to present value as of April 2018 (i) estimates of unlevered free cash flow for Wabtec for the final 9 months of 2018 through year-end 2022 as reflected in the Forecasts and (ii) a range of illustrative terminal values for Wabtec, which were calculated by applying perpetuity growth rates ranging from 3.0% to 4.0%, to a terminal year estimate of the free cash flow to be generated by Wabtec, as reflected in the Forecasts (which analysis implied exit terminal year EBITDA multiples ranging from 10.5x to 14.8x). Goldman Sachs derived such discount rates by application of the Capital Asset Pricing Model, which requires certain company-specific inputs, including the company’s target capital structure weightings, the cost of long-term debt, after-tax yield on permanent excess cash, if any, future applicable marginal cash tax rate and a beta for the company, as well as certain financial metrics for the United States financial markets generally. The range of perpetuity growth rates was estimated by Goldman Sachs utilizing its professional judgment and experience, taking into account the Forecasts and market expectations regarding long-term real growth of gross domestic product and inflation. Goldman Sachs then added the ranges of present values it derived above to derive a range of illustrative EVs for Wabtec of $9.3 billion to $12.7 billion. Goldman Sachs then subtracted the amount of Wabtec’s adjusted net debt for the Transactions as of March 31, 2018 as well as the value of certain other Wabtec enterprise value adjustments, both as provided by the management of Wabtec, from the range of illustrative EVs it derived for Wabtec to derive a range of illustrative equity values for Wabtec. Goldman Sachs then divided the range of illustrative equity values it derived by the fully diluted number of shares (98.0 million), as provided by the management of Wabtec (and which number was updated by management after the Wabtec Board meeting on May 19, 2018 and before the execution of the Merger Agreement to be 98.1 million), to derive a range of illustrative present values per share of Wabtec common stock ranging from $77.00 to $111.00 (rounded to the nearest dollar).

Illustrative Present Value of Future Share Price Analysis. Goldman Sachs performed an illustrative analysis of the implied present value of an illustrative future value per share of Wabtec common stock on a standalone basis, which is designed to provide an indication of the present value of a theoretical future value of a company’s

TABLE OF CONTENTS

equity as a function of such company’s financial multiples. For purposes of this analysis, Goldman Sachs applied an illustrative range of EV/NTM EBITDA multiples of 11.0x to 14.0x to the estimated standalone next 12 months’ EBITDA of Wabtec at the end of each of the years 2018 to 2021 using the Forecasts. These illustrative multiple estimates were derived by Goldman Sachs utilizing its professional judgment and experience, taking into account current and historical next 12 months’ EV/EBITDA multiples for Wabtec. Goldman Sachs derived from this analysis a range of illustrative EVs for Wabtec on a standalone basis of $10.5 billion to $12.9 billion. Goldman Sachs then subtracted the amount of Wabtec’s forecasted standalone debt for fiscal year end 2018 (in the amount of $1.723 billion), fiscal year end 2019 (in the amount of $1.450 billion), fiscal year end 2020 (in the amount of $1.094 billion) and fiscal year end 2021 (in the amount of $1.020 billion), as provided by the management of Wabtec and approved for Goldman Sachs’ use by Wabtec, from, and added the assumed amount of Wabtec’s forecasted standalone cash and cash equivalents for fiscal year end 2018 (in the amount of $275 million), fiscal year end 2019 (in the amount of $366 million), fiscal year end 2020 (in the amount of $485 million) and fiscal year end 2021 (in the amount of $867 million), as provided by the management of Wabtec and approved for Goldman Sachs’ use by Wabtec, to, in each case as of the relevant year-end per the Forecasts, the illustrative EVs in order to calculate the implied future equity values of Wabtec. The implied future equity values in turn were divided by the number of fully diluted shares of Wabtec common stock, as provided by the management of Wabtec. Goldman Sachs then discounted this range of implied future values per share of Wabtec common stock for the years 2018 through 2021, respectively, as well as the projected dividends per share (per the Forecasts), back to April 2018 using a discount rate of 11.0%, reflecting an estimate of the standalone cost of equity for Wabtec. Goldman Sachs derived such discount rate by application of the Capital Asset Pricing Model, which requires certain company-specific inputs, including a beta for the company, as well as certain financial metrics for the United States financial markets generally. Goldman Sachs then added such implied present value of projected dividends per share to such range of implied present values per share to derive a range of implied present values per share of $68.00 to $113.00 (rounded to the nearest dollar). In addition, Goldman Sachs compared the Undisturbed Price and the May 17, 2018 Price to the range of implied present values per share of Wabtec common stock of $89.00 to $113.00 (rounded to the nearest dollar), which were derived from this analysis when using only the implied future values per share of Wabtec common stock as of year-end 2021.

Financial Analysis of Wabtec (Pro Forma for the Transactions)

Illustrative Discounted Cash Flow Analysis. Using the Forecasts and the Synergies, Goldman Sachs also performed an illustrative discounted cash flow analysis on Wabtec pro forma for the Transactions (after giving effect to (a) the Synergies and (b) both the Synergies and tax attributes of the Transactions that would accrue to Wabtec (per the Forecasts)). Using discount rates ranging from 9.0% to 10.0%, reflecting estimates of Wabtec’s pro forma weighted average cost of capital, Goldman Sachs discounted to present value as of April 2018 (i) estimates of pro forma unlevered free cash flow for Wabtec pro forma for the Transactions for the final 9 months of 2018 through year-end 2022, as reflected in the Forecasts (inclusive of the Synergies) and (ii) a range of illustrative pro forma terminal values for Wabtec pro forma for the Transactions, which was calculated by applying perpetuity growth rates ranging from 2.75% to 3.75%, to a terminal year estimate of the free cash flow to be generated by Wabtec pro forma for the Transactions, as reflected in the Forecasts (inclusive of the Synergies), which analysis implied exit terminal year EBITDA multiples ranging from 11.5x to 15.9x. Goldman Sachs derived such discount rates by application of the Capital Asset Pricing Model, which requires certain company-specific inputs, including the company’s target capital structure weightings, the cost of long-term debt, after-tax yield on permanent excess cash, if any, future applicable marginal cash tax rate and a beta for the company, as well as certain financial metrics for the United States financial markets generally. The range of the perpetuity growth rates was estimated by Goldman Sachs utilizing its professional judgment and experience, taking into account the Forecasts and market expectations regarding long-term real growth of gross domestic

TABLE OF CONTENTS

product and inflation. Goldman Sachs derived a range of illustrative EVs for Wabtec pro forma for the Transactions by adding the ranges of present values it derived above. In addition, using the Forecasts for the tax attributes of the Transactions that would accrue to Wabtec pro forma for the Transactions, Goldman Sachs calculated an illustrative net present value of these tax attributes, using an illustrative discount rate of 7.0%, which represented a mid-point between an illustrative cost of debt and an illustrative weighted average cost of capital for Wabtec pro forma for the Transactions, and added this illustrative net present value to this range of illustrative EVs for Wabtec pro forma for the Transactions. Goldman Sachs then subtracted the amount of Wabtec’s adjusted net debt pro forma for the Transactions in the amount of $4.621 billion, as provided by the management of Wabtec and approved for Goldman Sachs’ use by Wabtec, as well as the value of certain Wabtec pro forma enterprise value adjustments in the amount of $112 million, as provided by the management of Wabtec and approved for Goldman Sachs’ use by Wabtec, both as provided by the management of Wabtec, from the range of illustrative EVs it derived for Wabtec to derive a range of illustrative equity values for Wabtec. Goldman Sachs then divided the range of illustrative equity values it derived by the fully diluted number of shares (196.5 million) pro forma for the Transactions, as provided by the management of Wabtec (and which number was updated by management after the Wabtec Board meeting on May 19, 2018 and before the execution of the Merger Agreement, but continued to be 196.5 million when rounded to the nearest decimal place), to derive a range of illustrative present values per share of Wabtec common stock pro forma for the Transactions of $88.00 to $127.00 (when the analysis included the Synergies, but not the tax attributes of the Transactions that would accrue to Wabtec pro forma for the Transactions) and $93.00 to $132.00 (when the analysis included both the Synergies and the tax attributes of the Transactions that would accrue to Wabtec pro forma for the Transactions), in each case, as rounded to the nearest dollar.

Illustrative Present Value of Future Share Price Analysis. Goldman Sachs also performed an illustrative analysis of the implied present value of an illustrative future value per share of Wabtec common stock pro forma for the Transactions. For purposes of this analysis, Goldman Sachs applied an illustrative range of next 12 months’ EV/EBITDA multiples of 10.0x to 13.0x to the estimated next 12 months’ EBITDA of Wabtec pro forma for the Transactions at the end of each of the years 2018 to 2021 using the Forecasts and the Synergies (but not the tax attributes of the Transactions that would accrue to Wabtec (per the Forecasts)). These illustrative multiple estimates were derived by Goldman Sachs utilizing its professional judgment and experience, taking into account current and historical next 12 months’ EV/EBITDA multiples for Wabtec. Goldman Sachs then subtracted the amount of Wabtec’s forecasted debt for fiscal year end 2018 (in the amount of $4.542 billion), fiscal year end 2019 (in the amount of $3.870 billion), fiscal year end 2020 (in the amount of $3.020 billion) and fiscal year end 2021 (in the amount of $3.020 billion), as provided by the management of Wabtec and approved for Goldman Sachs’ use by Wabtec, from, and added the assumed forecasted amount of Wabtec’s cash and cash equivalents for fiscal year end 2018 (in the amount of $293 million), fiscal year end 2019 (in the amount of $517 million), fiscal year end 2020 (in the amount of $878 million) and fiscal year end 2021 (in the amount of $2.214 billion), as provided by the management of Wabtec and approved for Goldman Sachs’ use by Wabtec, to, in each case pro forma for the Transactions and as of the relevant year-end per the Forecasts and the Synergies, the illustrative EVs in order to calculate the implied future equity values of Wabtec pro forma for the Transactions. The implied future equity values in turn were divided by the fully diluted number of shares (196.5 million) of Wabtec common stock pro forma for the Transactions, as provided by the management of Wabtec (and which number was updated by management after the Wabtec Board meeting on May 19, 2018 and before the execution of the Merger Agreement, but continued to be 196.5 million when rounded to the nearest decimal place). Goldman Sachs then discounted this range of implied future values per share of Wabtec common stock for the years 2018 through 2021, respectively, as well as the projected dividends per share of Wabtec pro forma (per the Forecasts), back to April 2018 using a discount rate of 11.0%, reflecting an estimate of the pro forma cost of equity for Wabtec pro forma for the Transactions. Goldman Sachs derived such discount rate by application of the Capital Asset Pricing Model, which requires certain company-specific inputs, including a beta for the company, as well as certain financial metrics for the United States financial markets generally. Goldman Sachs then added such implied present value of projected dividends per share to such range of implied present values per share to derive a range of implied present values per share of $70.00 to $126.00 (rounded to the nearest dollar). In addition, Goldman Sachs adjusted this range of implied present values per share of Wabtec common stock pro forma for the Transactions as of year-end 2021 to include an illustrative net present value per share attributable to the tax attributes of the Transactions that would accrue to Wabtec pro forma for the Transactions, calculated by using the Forecasts for such attributes and an illustrative discount rate of 7.0%, which represented a mid-point between an illustrative cost of debt and an illustrative weighted average cost of capital for Wabtec pro forma for the

Transactions. Goldman Sachs compared this range to the range of implied present values per share of Wabtec common stock pro forma for the Transactions inclusive of the Synergies but not such tax attributes as of year-end 2021. This comparison presented a range of implied present values per share of $102.00 to $132.00 (taking into account both the Synergies and the tax attributes) and $97.00 to $126.00 (taking into account the Synergies, but not the tax attributes), in each case, as rounded to the nearest dollar.

General

The preparation of a fairness opinion is a complex process and is not necessarily susceptible to partial analysis or summary description. Selecting portions of the analyses or of the summary set forth above, without considering the analyses as a whole, could create an incomplete view of the processes underlying Goldman Sachs’ opinion. In arriving at its fairness determination, Goldman Sachs considered the results of all of its analyses and did not attribute any particular weight to any factor or analysis considered by it. Rather, Goldman Sachs made its determination as to fairness on the basis of its experience and professional judgment after considering the results of all of its analyses. No company or transaction used in the above analyses as a comparison is directly comparable to Wabtec, GE, GE Transportation or the Transactions.

Goldman Sachs prepared these analyses for purposes of Goldman Sachs providing its opinion to the Wabtec Board as to the fairness from a financial point of view to Wabtec of the Aggregate Consideration to be paid by Wabtec pursuant to the Merger Agreement. These analyses do not purport to be appraisals nor do they necessarily reflect the prices at which businesses or securities actually may be sold. Analyses based upon forecasts of future results are not necessarily indicative of actual future results, which may be significantly more or less favorable than suggested by these analyses. Because these analyses are inherently subject to uncertainty, being based upon numerous factors or events beyond the control of the parties or their respective advisors, none of Wabtec, SpinCo, GE, Goldman Sachs or any other person assumes responsibility if future results are materially different from those forecast.

The Aggregate Consideration was determined through arms’-length negotiations between Wabtec and GE and was approved by the Wabtec Board. Goldman Sachs provided advice to Wabtec during these negotiations. Goldman Sachs did not, however, recommend any specific amount of consideration to Wabtec or the Wabtec Board or that any specific amount of consideration constituted the only appropriate consideration for the Transactions.

As described above, Goldman Sachs’ opinion to the Wabtec Board was one of many factors taken into account by the Wabtec Board in making its determination to approve the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. The foregoing summary does not purport to be a complete description of the analyses performed by Goldman Sachs in connection with the fairness opinion and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the written opinion of Goldman Sachs attached as Exhibit 99.1 to the registration statement of which this prospectus-information statement forms a part.

Goldman Sachs and its affiliates are engaged in advisory, underwriting and financing, principal investing, sales and trading, research, investment management and other financial and non-financial activities and services for various persons and entities. Goldman Sachs and its affiliates and employees, and funds or other entities they manage or in which they invest or have other economic interests or with which they co-invest, may at any time purchase, sell, hold or vote long or short positions and investments in securities, derivatives, loans, commodities, currencies, credit default swaps and other financial instruments of Wabtec, GE, SpinCo, Merger Sub, and any of their respective affiliates and third parties, or any currency or commodity that may be involved in the Transactions. Goldman Sachs has acted as financial advisor to Wabtec in connection with, and has participated in certain of the negotiations leading to, the Transactions.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Goldman Sachs has provided certain financial advisory and/or underwriting services to General Electric and/or its affiliates from time to time for which its Investment Banking Division has received, and may receive, compensation, including having acted as joint bookrunner with respect to an initial public offering of 260,610,000 shares of common stock of Moneta Money Bank, a former General Electric subsidiary (”MMB”), in May 2016; as financial advisor to General Electric in connection with the sale of General Electric Appliances, a former General Electric subsidiary, in June 2016; as joint bookrunner with respect to a follow on public offering of 125,000,000 shares of common stock of MMB in September 2016; as financial advisor to General Electric Capital Corporation, a subsidiary of General Electric (“GCC”), in connection with GCC’s sale of a 23.3% stake in Hyundai Capital Services in September 2016; as joint bookrunner with respect to a follow on public offering of 92,214,009 shares of common stock of MMB in November 2016; as financial advisor to GCC in connection with GCC’s sale of a 43% stake in Hyundai Card in February 2017; as joint bookrunner with respect to a public offering of the 2.125% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2037, 1.500% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2029, 0.875% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2025 and 0.375% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2022 (aggregate principal amount $8.7 billion) of General Electric in May 2017; as financial advisor to General Electric in connection with the sale of General Electric Water, a former General Electric subsidiary, in September 2017; as financial advisor to General Electric in connection with the sale of General Electric Industrial Solutions, a General Electric subsidiary, announced in September 2017; as co-manager with respect to the public offering of the 4.080% Senior Notes due 2047, 3.337% Senior Notes due 2027 and 2.773% Senior Notes due 2022 (aggregate principal amount $4 billion) of Baker Hughes, a subsidiary of General Electric, in December 2017; and as financial advisor to GCC in connection with the formation of an origination venture involving General Electric Capital Aviation Services in December 2017. During the two-year period ended May 20, 2018, Goldman Sachs has recognized compensation for financial advisory and/or underwriting services provided by its Investment Banking Division to GE and/or its affiliates of approximately $83.1 million.

During the two-year period ended May 20, 2018, the Investment Banking Division of Goldman Sachs has not been engaged by Wabtec or any of its affiliates to provide financial advisory or underwriting services for which Goldman Sachs has recognized compensation. Goldman Sachs may also in the future provide, and may currently be providing, financial advisory and/or underwriting services to Wabtec, GE, SpinCo, Merger Sub and their respective affiliates for which Goldman Sachs’ Investment Banking Division may recognize compensation.

In addition, at the request of Wabtec, at the time of the execution of the Merger Agreement, an affiliate of Goldman Sachs entered into financing commitments and agreements to provide Wabtec with the Credit Agreement, the Bridge Commitments, and certain other alternative financing in connection with the consummation of the Transactions and subject to the terms of such commitments. The actual amount of aggregate fees received by Goldman Sachs and its affiliates in connection with the debt financing for the Transactions will depend on, among other things, the completion date of the Transactions. Wabtec estimates that Goldman Sachs and its affiliates will receive approximately $13 million in fees in the aggregate in connection with the proposed financing.

The Wabtec Board selected Goldman Sachs as its financial advisor because it is an internationally recognized investment banking firm that has substantial experience in transactions similar to the Transactions. Pursuant to a letter agreement dated March 1, 2018, Wabtec engaged Goldman Sachs to act as its financial advisor in connection with the Transactions. The engagement letter between Wabtec and Goldman Sachs provides for a transaction fee of $32 million plus a discretionary fee of up to $4 million, all of which is contingent upon the consummation of the Transactions. In addition, Wabtec has agreed to reimburse Goldman Sachs for certain of its expenses, including attorneys’ fees and disbursements, and to indemnify Goldman Sachs and related persons against various liabilities, including certain liabilities under the federal securities laws.

Certain Unaudited Financial Projections

In connection with its consideration of the potential combination of Wabtec and GE Transportation, the Wabtec Board was provided with certain non-public financial projections initially prepared by management of GE and GE Transportation and subsequently adjusted by management of Wabtec, as discussed below, with respect to GE Transportation for the years ending December 31, 2018 through December 31, 2022 (as prepared by management of GE and GE Transportation, the “GE Transportation Financial Projections” and, as adjusted by management of Wabtec, the “Wabtec Adjusted GE Transportation Financial Projections”) and certain non-public financial projections prepared by management of Wabtec with respect to Wabtec’s business, as a stand-alone company, for the years ending December 31, 2018 through December 31, 2022 (the “Wabtec Financial Projections,” and,

66

TABLE OF CONTENTS

collectively with the GE Transportation Financial Projections and the Wabtec Adjusted GE Transportation Financial Projections, the “Financial Projections”). The Financial Projections also were provided to Wabtec’s financial advisor, Goldman Sachs, in connection with the preparation of its opinion. Wabtec believes that no material change in its operations or performance, or the projections or assumptions provided to the Wabtec Board and Goldman Sachs in connection with the Transactions, has occurred since the Wabtec Board meeting held to approve the Merger, and Wabtec does not anticipate any material changes in such operations, performance, projections or assumptions before the closing of the Merger.

The Wabtec Adjusted GE Transportation Financial Projections and the Wabtec Financial Projections are included in this prospectus-information statement solely to give GE and Wabtec stockholders access to information that was made available in connection with, and material to, the Wabtec Board’s consideration of the Transactions, and are not included in this prospectus-information statement to influence any GE stockholder or Wabtec stockholder to make any investment decision with respect to the Transactions or for any other purpose. In particular, these projections should not be viewed as public guidance.

The Financial Projections were not prepared with a view towards public disclosure or compliance with published guidelines of the SEC or the guidelines established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants for preparation and presentation of prospective financial information. Neither the independent registered public accounting firms of Wabtec or GE Transportation nor any other independent accountants, have compiled, examined, or performed any procedures with respect to the unaudited Financial Projections contained herein, nor have they expressed any opinion or any other form of assurance on such information or its achievability, and the independent accounting firms of Wabtec or GE Transportation assume no responsibility for, and disclaim any association with, the unaudited Financial Projections. The reports of the independent registered public accounting firms of Wabtec contained in Wabtec’s current report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on September 10, 2018, which is incorporated by reference into this document, relate to the historical financial information of Wabtec. The report of the independent registered public accounting firm of GE Transportation contained in Audited Financial Statements of GE Transportation as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 and for each of the years in the three year period ended December 31, 2017, which is included in this document, relates to the historical financial information of GE Transportation. These reports do not extend to the unaudited Financial Projections and should not be read to do so. Furthermore, the unaudited Financial Projections do not take into account any circumstances or events occurring after the date the Financial Projections were prepared.

Moreover, the Financial Projections:

| • | were based upon numerous estimates or expectations, beliefs, opinions and assumptions with respect to GE Transportation and Wabtec’s business, respectively, including their respective results of operations and financial conditions, customer requirements and competition, and with respect to general business, economic, market, regulatory and financial conditions and other future events, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond Wabtec’s or GE’s control and may not be realized;

| • | do not take into account any transactions, circumstances or events occurring after the date they were prepared, including the Transactions, or the effect of any failure of the Merger or the other Transactions to occur;

| • | do not give effect to adjustments to GE Transportation’s historical financial statements, as described in Note 7.a. under “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements,” which, with respect to the harmonization of revenue recognition policies, are expected (i) to produce a $63 million decrease from GE Transportation in Wabtec’s reported consolidated net revenue and EBIT in 2019 and no material effect in future years and (ii) not to materially change Wabtec’s future reported consolidated cash from operations;

| • | are not necessarily indicative of current market conditions or values or future performance, which may be significantly more or less favorable than as set forth in the Financial Projections; and

| • | are not, and should not be regarded as, a representation that any of the expectations contained in, or forming a part of, the Financial Projections will be achieved.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The Wabtec Financial Projections, and the adjustments by Wabtec management that are reflected in the Wabtec Adjusted GE Transportation Financial Projections, are materially impacted by a combination of factors in the global passenger and freight rail industries. Other factors impacting such financial projections, include assumptions about energy markets and the overall economy. Wabtec’s key assumptions include:

| • | Economic growth consistent with recent years, including continued expansion and growth in international markets, new products and capabilities.

| • | Execution of original equipment backlog in the Transit markets, increasing Wabtec’s installed base of products leading to aftermarket parts and services revenues.

| • | Original equipment freight markets in North America remain consistent with historical averages, especially as it relates to build rate of freight cars and locomotives. Aftermarket freight sales are expected to support current and potentially expanding rail activity and volumes.

| • | Energy markets remain strong, impacting rail activity as well as our industrial markets, such as heat exchangers, cooling product and power generation equipment.

| • | Electronic products, including Signaling revenues, to grow with railroad’s continuing use of technology in their industry. Revenues are expected to increase with the introduction of additional new products improving the safety and efficiency of our customer’s operations.

The GE Transportation Financial Projections are materially impacted by a combination of factors in freight rail and mining industries. GE and GE Transportation’s key assumptions include:

| • | Economic growth consistent with recent years, including continued expansion and growth in international markets.

| • | Execution of original equipment backlog, increasing GE Transportation’s installed base of products leading to future aftermarket parts and services revenue.

| • | Original equipment freight markets in North America to recover and be consistent with historical averages, especially as it relates to build rate of locomotives. Aftermarket services, including parts, service and modifications, to be consistent with current and expanding rail activity and volumes, and in line with existing backlog.

| • | Mining markets remain strong based on commodity prices, consistent with historical averages of units manufactured, and consistent with current backlog.

| • | Growth in digital products which enhance the operations of rail customers including fuel efficiency, network optimization, as well as train monitoring products.

Wabtec management believes that the assumptions used as a basis for the Financial Projections were reasonable based on the information available to Wabtec management at the time prepared. However, the Financial Projections are not a guarantee of future actual performance. The future financial results of GE Transportation and Wabtec’s business, respectively, may differ materially from those expressed in the Financial Projections due to factors that are beyond Wabtec’s or GE’s ability to control or predict.

Although the Financial Projections were prepared with numerical specificity, they are forward-looking statements that involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Further, the Financial Projections cover multiple years and such information by its nature becomes less predictive with each successive quarter and year. Stockholders are urged to read the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Cautionary Statement on Forward-Looking Statements” for additional information regarding the risks inherent in forward-looking information such as the Financial Projections. GE and Wabtec stockholders also should review the factors described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Risk Factors” and those risk factors incorporated in this prospectus-information statement by reference from Item 1A of Wabtec’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017.

None of Wabtec, GE or SpinCo or any of their respective affiliates intends to, and, except to the extent required by applicable law, each of them expressly disclaims any obligation to, update, revise or correct the Financial Projections to reflect circumstances existing or arising after the date such projections were generated or to reflect the occurrence of future events, even in the event that any or all of the assumptions underlying the projections

68

TABLE OF CONTENTS

are shown to be in error or any of the Financial Projections otherwise would not be realized. Neither GE nor SpinCo made any representations to Wabtec in the Merger Agreement or otherwise concerning the GE Transportation Financial Projections or the Wabtec Adjusted GE Transportation Financial Projections.

Certain of the financial information contained in the Financial Projections, including EBITDA, may be considered non-GAAP financial measures. Wabtec management provided this information to the Wabtec Board and Wabtec’s financial advisor because Wabtec management believed it could be useful in evaluating GE Transportation, in the case of the GE Transportation Financial Projections and the Wabtec Adjusted GE Transportation Financial Projections, and Wabtec’s business, in the case of the Wabtec Financial Projections. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information presented in compliance with GAAP, and non-GAAP financial measures as used by Wabtec or GE may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts used by other companies.

For the foregoing reasons, the inclusion of the Wabtec Adjusted GE Transportation Financial Projections and the Wabtec Financial Projections in this prospectus-information statement should not be regarded as an indication that Wabtec, GE, SpinCo or their respective affiliates or representatives considered or consider the Wabtec Adjusted GE Transportation Financial Projections or the Wabtec Financial Projections to be necessarily predictive of actual future events, and the Wabtec Adjusted GE Transportation Financial Projections and the Wabtec Financial Projections should not be relied upon as such. The Wabtec Adjusted GE Transportation Financial Projections should be evaluated in conjunction with the limitations described above and the historical financial statements and other information regarding GE Transportation contained elsewhere in this prospectus-information statement, and the Wabtec Financial Projections should be evaluated in conjunction with the limitations described above and the historical financial statements and other information regarding Wabtec’s business contained elsewhere in this prospectus-information statement. In light of the foregoing factors and the uncertainties inherent in financial projections, stockholders are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these projections.

The Wabtec Adjusted GE Transportation Financial Projections

Wabtec was provided with non-public financial projections prepared by management of GE and GE Transportation with respect to GE Transportation. The projections reflect strong orders and the execution of existing backlog over the forecast period. The revenue growth in the outer years is fueled by a North American market recovery, primarily driven by carloading growth. Subsequently, Wabtec management made certain adjustments to these financial projections based on its judgment and experience in the industry to reflect Wabtec management’s alternative perspectives regarding GE Transportation. These changes resulted in the Wabtec Adjusted GE Transportation Financial Projections.

The following is a summary of the Wabtec Adjusted GE Transportation Financial Projections:

The Wabtec Financial Projections

Wabtec Stockholders Meeting

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Wabtec agreed to call, give notice of, convene and hold a special meeting of its stockholders for the purpose of voting upon the proposals to approve the Share Issuance and the Wabtec Charter Amendment. The Wabtec Board called a special meeting of Wabtec stockholders, which was held on November 14, 2018, for Wabtec stockholders of record as of October 11, 2018. The definitive proxy statement was mailed to Wabtec stockholders on or about October 12, 2018. At the special meeting, Wabtec stockholders approved the Share Issuance and the Wabtec Charter Amendment.

Wabtec’s directors and executive officers held approximately 11.16% of the shares entitled to vote at Wabtec’s special meeting of stockholders as of August 1, 2018. SpinCo’s directors, executive officers and their affiliates did not own any shares of Wabtec common stock entitled to vote at Wabtec’s special meeting of stockholders as of August 1, 2018.

Certain stockholders, directors and officers of Wabtec beneficially owning approximately 10.9% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock entered into a Voting Agreement with GE under which these persons agreed to vote in favor of the Share Issuance proposal and the Wabtec Charter Amendment proposal. The Voting Agreement terminated on November 14, 2018 following the approval of the Share Issuance and the Wabtec Charter Amendment by Wabtec stockholders. See “Other Agreements—The Voting Agreement.”

Interests of GE’s and SpinCo’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Transactions

As of November 1, 2018, SpinCo’s directors and executive officers owned less than 1% of the outstanding shares of GE’s common stock. All of SpinCo’s outstanding common stock is currently owned directly by GE. Except as described below, none of GE’s or SpinCo’s directors or executive officers will receive any severance or other compensation as a result of the Transactions, or any extra or special benefit that is not shared on a pro rata basis by all of GE stockholders in connection with the Transactions. If a director or executive officer of GE or SpinCo owns shares of GE common stock, such director or executive officer will have the right to participate in the Distribution and the Merger on the same terms as other GE stockholders.

It is anticipated that SpinCo’s executive officers will include Rafael O. Santana (President and Chief Executive Officer), Jason M. Frierott (Chief Financial Officer), Thomas P. LaFrance (General Counsel), Nathan W. Bailey (Chief Human Resources Officer), Yuvbir Singh (Vice President, Equipment) and Pascal Schweitzer (Vice President, Global Services).

GE has entered into Leadership Incentive Program agreements with 415 SpinCo employees, including each of SpinCo’s executive officers, which provide for the opportunity to earn incentive payments in the aggregate amount of approximately $65 million. The agreements are intended to secure the employees’ dedication and best efforts toward facilitating the Merger and assisting with the integration of the GE Transportation business with the business of Wabtec after the closing date of the Merger. The incentive payments will vest 50% on the closing

TABLE OF CONTENTS

date of the Merger and 50% twelve months following the closing date, subject to certain customary terms and conditions, including restrictions on soliciting or hiring GE employees during employment with GE and for 12 months thereafter. The target amount of the incentive payment for participating employees is based on a percentage applied to the sum of the employee’s annual base salary plus annual target bonus, with certain employees eligible for additional amounts if specified transaction or business-related goals are attained. The maximum amount of the incentive payments that may be payable in the aggregate to the executive officers is approximately $9.8 million.

As of November 1, 2018, SpinCo’s executive officers, in the aggregate, held unvested options to purchase 1,103,330 shares of GE common stock (with a weighted average exercise price of $17.37) and unvested restricted stock units with respect to 239,038 shares of GE common stock that will vest on the closing date of the Merger in accordance with their terms.

In addition, on the closing date of the Merger, the SpinCo executive officers (other than Mr. Schweitzer) will vest in their GE Supplemental Pension Benefit or GE Executive Retirement Benefit, as applicable, in order to avoid the forfeiture of such benefits in connection with the Transactions. These benefits will not become payable until the executive officer reaches age 60.

Wabtec may enter into employment agreements or other compensation arrangements with certain executive officers of SpinCo. Wabtec is in the process of documenting the terms of Mr. Santana’s employment which are subject to finalization in an employment contract that will be entered into prior to the closing of the Merger. The proposed terms for Mr. Santana include an annual base salary of $1,000,000, a target annual bonus opportunity of 100% of his base salary and maximum annual bonus opportunity of 225% of his base salary. In addition, subject to the approval of Wabtec’s Compensation Committee, Mr. Santana will be granted a one-time award of Wabtec restricted stock with an aggregate grant date fair market value of $2,000,000, subject to annual vesting over a four-year period, and will, subject to the approval of Wabtec’s Compensation Committee, receive annual Wabtec equity incentive awards with an aggregate grant date value of at least approximately $2,000,000. The agreement will also include severance arrangements.

Interests of Wabtec’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Transactions

Wabtec directors and executive officers have financial interests in the Transactions that are different from, or in addition to, the interests of Wabtec stockholders generally, as more fully described below. The members of the Wabtec Board were aware of and considered these interests, among other matters, in deciding to approve the terms of the Merger Agreement and the Transactions.

Outstanding Stock Awards

Under the terms of Wabtec’s Stock Incentive Plans, upon the closing of the Merger, all outstanding Wabtec Options, Wabtec Restricted Stock, Wabtec Restricted Stock Units and Wabtec Performance Units will vest. Wabtec Performance Units will be considered earned at a level of 200% of target and they and Wabtec Restricted Stock Units will be settled in cash by Wabtec as promptly as practicable following the Merger.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The following table sets forth the number of shares of Wabtec common stock underlying outstanding unvested Wabtec Options, Wabtec Restricted Stock, Wabtec Restricted Stock Units and Wabtec Performance Units (assuming maximum vesting at 200% of target), which are referred to collectively as “Wabtec equity awards,” held by Wabtec directors and executive officers as of November 1, 2018. The table also sets forth the value of these awards, assuming a price per share of Wabtec common stock of $97.07, the average per share closing price of Wabtec common stock during the first five business days following May 21, 2018, the date of the first public announcement of the Merger. The assumed $97.07 per share price is referred to as the “Assumed Wabtec Stock Price.”

Employment Continuation Agreements with Certain Executive Officers

Wabtec entered into employment continuation agreements with seven executive officers, including Raymond T. Betler, Patrick D. Dugan, David L. DeNinno, Scott E. Wahlstrom and Albert J. Neupaver (the “Continuation Agreements”). Under each Continuation Agreement, if the executive officer is employed by Wabtec on the closing date of a “change of control,” which, as defined in the Continuation Agreement, would include the Merger, the executive officer would be entitled to remain employed by Wabtec until the 24-month anniversary of the closing date (the “Protection Period”), subject to certain termination provisions described below.

During the Protection Period, the executive officer will (1) receive a base salary at a monthly rate at least equal to his monthly salary immediately prior to the closing of the Merger, (2) be afforded the opportunity to receive an annual cash bonus on terms and conditions no less favorable to him than his annual cash bonus opportunity for the year immediately prior to the closing of the Merger and in an amount not less than his target cash bonus amount in that year, (3) participate in all long-term incentive compensation programs for key executives and benefit plans at levels commensurate with his opportunity to participate in such plans immediately prior to the closing of the Merger, or, if better, at the level made available to him or other similarly situated officers at any time thereafter, (4) receive vacation and fringe benefits at a level commensurate with his benefits immediately prior to the closing of the Merger, or, if better, at the level made available to him or other similarly situated officers at any time thereafter, (5) be provided an office and support staff at a level commensurate with the level provided to other similarly situated officers or, if better, the level provided to him immediately prior to the closing of the Merger, (6) receive expense reimbursement in accordance with the policies and procedures of Wabtec in effect immediately prior to the closing of the Merger, or, if better, the policies and procedures in effect after the closing of the Merger, and (7) be indemnified for claims arising from or out of his performance as an officer, director or employee of Wabtec or any of its subsidiaries, or in any other capacity while serving at the request of Wabtec, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law and Wabtec’s governing documents. Wabtec is also required to maintain existing or comparable insurance policies covering such matters and, in any event, provide a level of protection that is no less than that afforded under Wabtec’s governing documents in effect immediately prior to the closing of the Merger.

Termination Other than for Cause/Resignation for Good Reason. If, during the Protection Period, the executive officer’s employment is terminated by Wabtec other than for cause, as defined in the Continuation Agreement, or the executive officer terminates his employment for “good reason,” as defined in the Continuation Agreement, the executive officer will receive severance payments and benefits equal to (1) a cash amount of two times the sum of his then-current annual base salary and target cash bonus amount for the year immediately prior to the closing of the Merger and (2) any vested benefits under Wabtec’s benefit plans, including accrued but unpaid vacation. The executive officer will also be entitled to continue participation in all of Wabtec’s employee and executive welfare and fringe benefit plans until the earlier of the 24-month anniversary of the termination date and the date the executive officer becomes eligible for comparable benefits under a similar plan, policy or program of a subsequent employer.

Receipt of severance payments and benefits under the Continuation Agreements is subject to standard confidentiality and other restrictive covenants, including restrictions for a period of one year following termination of the executive officer’s employment on soliciting business or employees away from Wabtec or providing any services that compete with the Wabtec business.

The Continuation Agreements provide that if the payments and benefits to each executive officer would be subject to an excise tax on “excess parachute payments” by reason of Sections 4999 and 280G of the Code, the payments and benefits under the Continuation Agreement will be reduced to the extent necessary to prevent any portion of the executive officer’s payments and benefits from becoming subject to such excise tax, but only if, by reason of that reduction, the net after-tax benefit received by the executive officer exceeds the net after-tax benefit that the executive officer would receive if no reduction was made. In addition, each Continuation Agreement provides that Wabtec will pay the executive officer’s costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, in asserting any claim in any contest as to the validity, enforceability or interpretation of the Continuation Agreement if the executive officer is the prevailing party.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The following table sets forth the cash severance payments and estimated value of the welfare and fringe benefits that each executive officer party to a Continuation Agreement would receive, assuming the closing date of the Merger occurred on November 1, 2018 and that each executive officer experienced a qualifying termination of employment immediately after the closing of the Merger. The following table does not take into account any reduction in payments or benefits that may apply to avoid the excise tax by reason of Sections 4999 and 280G of the Code.

Name | Cash Severance Payment ($)(1) | Welfare and Fringe Benefit Value ($)(2) | Total Value ($)
Raymond T. Betler |  | 5,000,000 |  |  | 22,800 |  |  | 5,022,800 |
Patrick D. Dugan |  | 2,340,000 |  |  | 22,800 |  |  | 2,362,800 |

Albert J. Neupaver |  | 2,800,000 |  |  | 22,800 |  |  | 2,822,800 |
2 Other Executive Officers |  | 1,470,000 |  |  | 45,600 |  |  | 1,515,600 |

| (1) | Two times the sum of (1) the executive officer’s annual base salary and (2) the target bonus amount for the executive officer for 2018, based on the assumptions described above, to be paid in cash in a single lump sum 30 days following the date of termination.

| (2) | Reflects the value of 24 months of continued welfare and fringe benefits pursuant to the Continuation Agreements, based on the full premium costs of such benefits.

Potential Change of Control. If, after the occurrence of a “potential change of control,” as defined in the Continuation Agreements, and prior to the consummation of a change of control, (1) an executive officer’s employment is terminated by Wabtec other than for cause or by the executive officer for good reason or Wabtec terminates the Continuation Agreement and (2) a change of control, which also constitutes certain changes in ownership or effective control under Section 409A of the Code, occurs within one year of such termination, the executive officer is deemed for purposes of determining the executive officer’s rights under the Continuation Agreement to have remained employed by Wabtec until the change of control and to have been terminated by Wabtec without cause immediately after the change of control. Each of the executive officers party to a Continuation Agreement would become entitled to receive the amounts described in the table above in those circumstances.

Severance Arrangement with Paul Overby

Paul Overby, one of Wabtec’s executive officers, would, upon elimination of his job, be provided with a minimum amount of severance equal to six months of his then-current base salary. Assuming such a qualifying termination of employment occurred on November 1, 2018, the aggregate value of the severance payments payable to Mr. Overby would equal $125,000. Mr. Overby has not entered into an employment continuation agreement with Wabtec.

Employment Agreement with Mr. Rambaud-Measson

Wabtec entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Rambaud-Measson, a named executive officer, in connection with the closing of Wabtec’s acquisition of Faiveley Transport in 2016. The employment agreement with Mr. Rambaud-Measson provides for an initial term of four years, during which Mr. Rambaud-Measson will serve as Executive Vice President of Wabtec and President and Chief Executive Officer of Faiveley, with such duties and responsibilities as are commensurate with such position.

During the employment period, Mr. Rambaud-Measson (1) will receive an annual base salary of €668,000, (2) will be eligible for an annual cash bonus at a target equal to 100% of annual base salary and a maximum of 225% of target, (3) received a grant of Wabtec Restricted Stock Units in connection with the Faiveley Transport acquisition in an amount equal to $1,425,000, which Restricted Stock Units vest over four years and are settled in shares of Wabtec common stock, (4) will be entitled to receive an annual grant of Wabtec Restricted Stock Units with a grant date value of at least €800,000 during each year of the employment period commencing in the first calendar quarter of 2017, (5) will be entitled to receive an annual grant of Wabtec Performance Units with a target grant date value of at least €800,000 and a three-year performance period, (6) will be eligible to participate in welfare and other benefit plans as are in effect for senior executives of Wabtec generally, provided that such

74

TABLE OF CONTENTS

benefits are at least as favorable as those provided by Faiveley, (7) will receive paid vacation of five weeks per calendar year, (8) will receive expense reimbursement for all reasonable, documented business expenses, and (9) will be indemnified to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law for acts taken within the scope of his employment and his service as an officer or director of Wabtec or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates. To the extent Wabtec maintains insurance policies covering such matters, Mr. Rambaud-Measson will be entitled to such coverage on a basis no less favorable than coverage provided to any other Wabtec officer or director.

Termination Other than for Cause/Resignation for Good Reason. If Mr. Rambaud-Measson’s employment is terminated by Wabtec other than for “cause,” death, or “disability” or by Mr. Rambaud-Measson for “good reason,” in each case as defined in the employment agreement, Mr. Rambaud-Measson will receive severance payments equal to (1) a lump-sum cash payment of two times his then-current annual base salary and two times his target bonus for the year of termination, (2) a payment of the pro rata portion of his annual bonus payable for the year in which he was terminated based on the satisfaction of applicable performance targets and payable in a lump sum at such time as bonuses are paid to other senior executives of Wabtec and (3) a pro rata portion of his Wabtec Performance Units outstanding at the time of his termination that he would have earned if he had remained employed until the end of the applicable performance period, which will be settled in shares of Wabtec common stock at such time (as such awards are generally settled for senior executives of Wabtec). Payments described in clauses (1) through (3) are subject to the execution of a release by Mr. Rambaud-Measson. Assuming Mr. Rambaud-Measson’s employment was terminated by Wabtec other than for cause or by himself for good reason on November 1, 2018, the value of the cash severance payments payable to Mr. Rambaud-Measson would have been $4,350,000, which does not include the value of a pro rata portion of outstanding Wabtec Performance Units because those will vest in full upon the closing of the Merger. See the section entitled “The Transactions—Interests of Wabtec’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Transactions—Outstanding Stock Awards” for a description and quantification of Mr. Rambaud-Measson’s Wabtec Performance Units that will vest in connection with the Merger.

Golden Parachute Compensation

The table below is intended to comply with Item 402(t) of the SEC’s Regulation S-K, which requires disclosure of change-in-control compensation to which Wabtec directors and executive officers could become entitled that is based on or otherwise relates to the Merger. The amounts shown are estimates based on multiple assumptions that may or may not actually occur or be accurate on the relevant date, including the assumptions described below and in the footnotes to the table, and do not reflect certain compensation actions that may occur before completion of the Merger. These amounts do not take into account any reduction in payment of benefits that may be imposed with respect to any so-called “golden parachute payments” under Section 280G of the Code. None of the named executive officers are entitled to a “gross-up” payment with respect to any such “golden parachute payment.” The executive officers may take certain actions to reduce excise tax exposure by reason of Sections 4999 and 280G of the Code, which may include waiving vesting acceleration with respect to a portion of their incentive equity.

For purposes of calculating the amounts in the table below, the following assumptions were used solely for purposes of the disclosure in this section:

| • | The relevant price per share of Wabtec common stock is the Assumed Wabtec Stock Price;

| • | The closing of the Merger occurs on November 1, 2018; and

| • | Each named executive officer of Wabtec experiences a qualifying termination of employment (termination by Wabtec without “cause” or resignation by the named executive officer for “good reason”, as such terms are defined in the Continuation Agreements or Mr. Rambaud-Measson’s employment agreement, as applicable) immediately following the assumed closing of the Merger.

| (1) | Cash. The amounts in this column represent the cash severance payments to which the named executive officers would be entitled under the employment agreement for Mr. Rambaud-Measson and under the Continuation Agreements for Mr. Betler, Mr. Dugan, Mr. DeNinno, Mr. Wahlstrom and Mr. Neupaver, in each case, as described above. Mr. Rambaud-Measson becomes entitled to the severance amounts listed here upon a qualifying termination of employment during the term of his employment agreement. The Continuation Agreements provide for double-trigger payments upon a qualifying termination of employment that occurs within the 24-month period following a change of control. The estimated amount of each such payment is shown in the following table, with maximum achievements assumed for amounts based on actual performance.

The following table sets forth the estimated value by type of equity award:

Named Executive Officer | Unvested Wabtec Options ($) | Unvested Shares of Wabtec Restricted Stock ($) | Unvested Wabtec Restricted Stock Units ($) | Unvested Wabtec Performance Units ($) | Total ($)
Raymond T. Betler |  | 748,145 |  |  | 4,130,329 |  |  | – |  |  | 11,260,120 |  |  | 16,138,594 |
Patrick D. Dugan |  | 262,231 |  |  | 2,693,693 |  |  | – |  |  | 4,076,940 |  |  | 7,032,864 |
Stéphane Rambaud- Measson |  | – |  |  | – |  |  | 3,824,558 |  |  | 5,241,780 |  |  | 9,066,338 |
David L. DeNinno |  | 216,318 |  |  | 2,892,686 |  |  | – |  |  | 3,300,380 |  |  | 6,409,384 |
Scott E. Wahlstrom |  | 122,825 |  |  | 1,226,965 |  |  | – |  |  | 1,863,744 |  |  | 3,213,534 |
Albert J. Neupaver |  | 443,245 |  |  | 3,793,010 |  |  | – |  |  | 9,318,720 |  |  | 13,554,975 |

| (3) | Perquisites/Benefits. The amounts in this column represent the estimated value of 24 months of continued health and welfare benefits provided pursuant to the Continuation Agreements, which provide double-trigger benefits, based on the full premium costs of such benefits. The estimated values of these benefits is $22,800 for each of Mr. Betler, Mr. Dugan, Mr. DeNinno, Mr. Wahlstrom and Mr. Neupaver. These named executive officers would become entitled to these amounts under the Continuation Agreements upon a qualifying termination of employment that occurs within the 24-month period following the closing of the Merger. In accordance with applicable SEC rules, the estimated value of health and welfare benefits was calculated based on the same assumptions used for financial reporting purposes. Each Continuation Agreement contains standard confidentiality and other restrictive covenants, including non-solicitation and non-competition covenants for a period of one year following termination of the executive’s employment. Mr. Rambaud-Measson is not entitled to any continued health or welfare benefits under the terms of his employment agreement.

Accounting Treatment and Considerations

Accounting Standard Codification 805, Business Combinations, requires the use of the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations. In applying the acquisition method, it is necessary to identify both the accounting acquiree and the accounting acquiror. In a business combination effected through an exchange of equity interests, such as the Merger, the entity that issues the interests (Wabtec, in this case) is generally the acquiring entity. In identifying the acquiring entity in a combination effected through an exchange of equity interests, however, all pertinent facts and circumstances must be considered, including the following:

Issuance of equity by Wabtec. Wabtec expects to issue approximately 98.4 million shares of Wabtec common stock in the Merger.

76

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Incurrence of debt by Wabtec. Approximately $2.9 billion of indebtedness is expected to be incurred in connection with the Transactions to fund the Direct Sale. Following the consummation of the Transactions, it is expected that post-Transaction GE Transportation will be owned by Wabtec through SpinCo, which will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Wabtec and will hold the SpinCo Business, and Direct Sale Purchaser, which will also be a wholly owned subsidiary of Wabtec and will hold the assets, potentially including the equity interests in certain pre-Transaction subsidiaries of GE that compose part of GE Transportation, acquired in the Direct Sale and the liabilities assumed in the Direct Sale. Nevertheless, because of the significant assets and operations represented by GE Transportation, Wabtec expects that following the consummation of the Transaction, SpinCo, Direct Sale Purchaser, and/or other entities through which GE Transportation is owned and operated may be required to become guarantors of the indebtedness of the Borrowers under the Credit Agreement, the New Wabtec Notes and Wabtec’s existing senior unsecured notes.

The relative voting interests of Wabtec stockholders after the consummation of the Transactions. In this case and calculated on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, GE and pre-Merger holders of GE common stock will collectively hold 50.1% of the equity ownership and associated voting rights in Wabtec after the consummation of the Transactions (with approximately 9.9% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock expected to be held by GE) and 49.9% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock will be held by pre-Merger Wabtec stockholders. The shares held by GE will be subject to GE’s obligations under (x) the Tax Matters Agreement to sell a number of shares of Wabtec common stock within two years of the Distribution Date (as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Other Agreements—Tax Matters Agreement”) and (y) the Shareholders Agreement to sell, subject to limited exceptions, all of the shares of Wabtec common stock GE beneficially owns within three years of the closing date of the Merger and prior thereto, to vote all of such shares in the proportion required under the Shareholders Agreement (as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Other Agreements—Shareholders Agreement”).

The composition of the governing body of Wabtec after the consummation of the Transactions. The Wabtec Board currently consists of 12 directors. In connection with the Transactions, the size of the Wabtec Board will be increased to include three additional directors, each of whom is required to be independent as defined in the listing standards of the NYSE, to be designated as nominees by GE (subject to the nominees being reasonably acceptable to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Wabtec Board), effective at the time of closing of the Merger. The Merger Agreement provides that, at the direction of GE, the GE designees will be assigned among the Wabtec Board’s classes of directors so that one GE designee is appointed to the class of directors that is up for reelection at each of the first three annual meetings of Wabtec stockholders that occurs after the closing of the Merger. Additionally, in certain circumstances (see “The Merger Agreement – Post-Closing Wabtec Board of Directors and Officers”), the Wabtec Board will take all actions necessary to include the GE designee up for reelection at the first annual meeting of Wabtec stockholders that occurs after the closing of the Merger as nominee for the Wabtec Board at such annual meeting, to recommend that Wabtec stockholders vote in favor of the GE designee and to support the election of the GE designee at such annual meeting.

The composition of the senior management of Wabtec after the consummation of the Transactions. The executive officers of Wabtec immediately prior to consummation of the Merger are generally expected to be the executive officers of Wabtec immediately following consummation of the Merger, with Albert J. Neupaver remaining as Wabtec’s executive chairman and Raymond T. Betler remaining as Wabtec’s president and CEO. Following consummation of the Transactions, Stéphane Rambaud-Measson will become president and CEO of Wabtec’s Transit Segment and Rafael O. Santana, president and CEO of GE Transportation, will become president and CEO of Wabtec’s Freight Segment.

Wabtec management has determined that Wabtec will be the accounting acquiror in the Merger based on the facts and circumstances outlined above and the analysis of the relevant GAAP guidance. Consequently, Wabtec will apply acquisition accounting to the assets and liabilities of GE Transportation acquired or assumed upon the consummation of the Direct Sale and the Merger. The historical financial statements of Wabtec for periods ended prior to the consummation of the Merger will reflect only the operations and financial condition of Wabtec. Subsequent to the consummation of the Merger, the financial statements of Wabtec will include the combined operations and financial condition of Wabtec and GE Transportation.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Regulatory Approvals

Under the HSR Act, the parties must file pre-merger notifications with the FTC and the DOJ and observe specified waiting periods before consummating the Merger. Wabtec and GE each filed the requisite notification and report forms with the FTC and the DOJ on June 22, 2018. Wabtec and GE have each received a request for additional information (“second request”) from the DOJ. The second request is not an uncommon part of the regulatory review process under the HSR Act in respect of large transactions. The effect of the second request is to extend the waiting period imposed by the HSR Act until 30 days after Wabtec and GE have substantially complied with their respective request, unless that period is extended voluntarily by both parties or terminated sooner by the DOJ. Wabtec and GE will continue to cooperate fully with the DOJ as it reviews the proposed transaction. In addition to the expiration of the waiting period under the HSR Act, the parties have agreed to take, make or obtain all material actions by, consents or approvals of, or in respect of or filings with any governmental authority required to permit the consummation of the Merger, including the governmental authorizations to be sought in Austria, Brazil, Canada, Germany, Kazakhstan, Mexico, Pakistan, Russia, South Africa and Ukraine. The required waiting period in Canada has expired, and the parties have already obtained clearance from Austria, Germany, Kazakhstan, Russia, South Africa and Ukraine.

Federal Securities Law Consequences; Resale Restriction

Wabtec common stock issued in the Merger will not be subject to any restrictions on transfer arising under the Securities Act, except for shares of Wabtec common stock issued to any person who may be deemed to be an “affiliate” of Wabtec under the Securities Act.

No Appraisal or Dissenters’ Rights

None of the stockholders of Wabtec, Merger Sub, Direct Sale Purchaser, GE or SpinCo will be entitled to exercise appraisal rights or to demand payment for their shares in connection with the Transactions.

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE DISTRIBUTION AND THE MERGER TO GE STOCKHOLDERS

The following are the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Distribution and Merger to U.S. Holders (as defined below) of GE common stock. This discussion is based on the Code, applicable Treasury regulations, administrative interpretations and court decisions as in effect as of the date of this registration statement, all of which may change, possibly with retroactive effect. For purposes of this discussion, a “U.S. Holder” is a beneficial owner of GE common stock that is for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

| • | a citizen or individual resident of the United States;

| • | a corporation, or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state therein or the District of Columbia; or

| • | an estate or trust the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source.

This discussion assumes that the Distribution is effected by way of a pro rata distribution to the stockholders of GE and that U.S. Holders of GE common stock hold such stock as a capital asset (generally, assets held for investment). It does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be important to a U.S. Holder in light of that stockholder’s particular circumstances or to a U.S. Holder subject to special rules, such as:

| • | a financial institution, regulated investment company, real estate investment trust, or insurance company;

| • | a tax-exempt organization;

| • | a dealer or broker in securities, commodities or foreign currencies;

| • | a stockholder that holds GE common stock as part of a hedge, appreciated financial position, straddle, conversion, or other risk reduction transaction;

| • | a stockholder that holds GE common stock in a tax-deferred account, such as an individual retirement account or a plan qualifying under Section 401(k) of the Code; or

| • | a stockholder that acquired GE common stock pursuant to the exercise of options or similar derivative securities or otherwise as compensation.

If a partnership, or any entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, holds GE common stock, the tax treatment of a partner in such partnership generally will depend on the status of the partners and the activities of the partnership. A partner in a partnership holding GE common stock should consult its own tax advisor.

This discussion of material U.S. federal income tax consequences does not address all potential U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Distribution and Merger, including consequences that may depend on individual circumstances. In addition, it does not address any estate or gift or other non-income tax consequences or any foreign, state or local tax consequences of the Distribution and Merger. Each holder of GE common stock should consult its own tax advisor to determine the particular U.S. federal, state or local or foreign income or other tax consequences of the Distribution and Merger to such holder.

Tax Opinions

The consummation of the Distribution, the Merger, and certain related transactions are conditioned upon (i) GE’s receipt of the GE Tax Opinions, and (ii) Wabtec’s receipt of the Wabtec Tax Opinion (the “Tax Opinions”). GE has also received a private letter ruling from the IRS with respect to certain aspects of the intended tax treatment of the Distribution (the “Ruling”).

In rendering the Tax Opinions, tax counsel will rely on (i) customary representations and covenants made by GE, SpinCo and Wabtec, (ii) specified assumptions, including an assumption regarding the completion of the Distribution, Merger, and certain related transactions in the manner contemplated by the transaction agreements and (iii) the Ruling. The Ruling is also based on various factual representations and assumptions. Tax counsels’ ability to provide the Tax Opinions will depend on the absence of changes in existing facts or law between the date of this registration statement and the closing date of the Distribution and the Merger. If any of the representations, covenants or assumptions described above is inaccurate, tax counsel may not be able to provide

79

TABLE OF CONTENTS

the Tax Opinions, the Tax Opinions or the Ruling may not be able to be relied upon, and the tax consequences of the Distribution and the Merger could differ from those described below. An opinion of tax counsel neither binds the IRS, nor precludes the IRS or the courts from adopting a contrary position.

The Distribution

On the basis that, as intended by GE and Wabtec, the Distribution, together with certain related transactions, will qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(D) of the Code and a distribution described in Sections 355(a) and 355(e) of the Code, in general, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

| • | the Distribution will be taxable to GE;

| • | U.S. Holders of GE common stock will not recognize income, gain or loss upon the receipt of the Distribution Shares in the Distribution;

| • | the aggregate tax basis of the shares of SpinCo common stock (including fractional shares) distributed in the Distribution to a U.S. Holder of GE common stock will be determined by allocating the aggregate tax basis of such U.S. Holder in the shares of GE common stock with respect to which the Distribution is made between such GE common stock and the SpinCo common stock received in proportion to the relative fair market values of such common stock; and

| • | the holding period (for U.S. federal income tax purposes) of any shares of SpinCo common stock received (including any fractional shares of SpinCo common stock) in the Distribution by a U.S. Holder of GE common stock will include the holding period at the time of the consummation of Distribution of the shares of GE common stock with respect to which the shares of SpinCo common stock were received.

In general, if the Distribution were not to qualify as a distribution described in Section 355(a) of the Code, the Distribution would be treated as a taxable dividend to GE stockholders.

The Merger

The Merger is intended to qualify as a tax-free “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. On the basis of such treatment and subject to the limitations and qualifications described herein, in general, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

| • | U.S. Holders of SpinCo common stock will not recognize income, gain or loss upon the receipt of Wabtec common stock in the Merger, except for any gain or loss recognized with respect to cash received in lieu of a fractional share of Wabtec common stock;

| • | the aggregate tax basis of Wabtec common stock received by a U.S. Holder of SpinCo common stock in the Merger (including fractional shares of Wabtec common stock deemed received and redeemed as described below) will be the same as the aggregate tax basis of the SpinCo common stock for which it is exchanged;

| • | the holding period (for U.S. federal income tax purposes) of Wabtec common stock received in exchange for shares of SpinCo common stock (including fractional shares of Wabtec common stock deemed received and redeemed as described below) will include the holding period of the SpinCo common stock for which it is exchanged;

| • | a U.S. Holder of SpinCo common stock who receives cash in lieu of a fractional share of Wabtec common stock will be treated as having received the fractional share pursuant to the Merger and then as having sold that fractional share for cash. As a result, such U.S. Holder of SpinCo common stock will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount of cash received and the tax basis in his or her fractional share, determined as set forth above; and

| • | any gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder described above will generally be capital gain or loss, and will be long-term capital gain or loss if, as of the closing date of the Merger, the holder’s holding period for the relevant shares is greater than one year. For U.S. Holders of SpinCo common stock that are noncorporate U.S. Holders, long-term capital gain generally will be taxed at a U.S. federal income tax rate that is lower than the rate for ordinary income or for short-term capital gains. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

80

TABLE OF CONTENTS

In general, if the Merger were not to qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, a U.S. Holder would be required to recognize gain or loss equal to the difference, if any, between such U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its SpinCo common stock surrendered in the Merger and an amount equal to the fair market value of its shares of Wabtec common stock received in the Merger, plus any cash received in lieu of fractional shares. Generally, in such event, a U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the shares of Wabtec common stock received in the Merger would equal the fair market value of such shares as of the date of the Merger, and such U.S. Holder’s holding period with respect to such shares would begin on the day after the Merger.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

U.S. Treasury regulations generally require persons who own at least five percent of the total outstanding stock of GE (by vote or value) and who receive SpinCo common stock pursuant to the Distribution and persons who own at least one percent of the total outstanding stock of SpinCo and who receive Wabtec common stock pursuant to the Merger to attach to their U.S. federal income tax return for the year in which the Distribution and the Merger occur a detailed statement setting forth certain information relating to the tax-free nature of the Distribution and the Merger, as the case may be, to GE stockholders. GE and/or SpinCo will provide the appropriate information to each holder upon request, and each such holder is required to retain permanent records of this information. In addition, payments of cash to a U.S. Holder of SpinCo common stock in lieu of a fractional share of Wabtec common stock in the Merger may be subject to information reporting, unless the U.S. Holder provides the withholding agent with proof of an applicable exemption. Payments that are subject to information reporting may also be subject to backup withholding (currently at a rate of 24%) unless such U.S. Holder provides the withholding agent with a correct taxpayer identification number and otherwise complies with the requirements of the backup withholding rules. Backup withholding does not constitute an additional tax, but merely an advance payment, which may be refunded or credited against a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, provided the required information is timely supplied to the IRS.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

THE MERGER AGREEMENT

The following is a summary of the material provisions of the Merger Agreement. This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus-information statement. GE stockholders are urged to read the Merger Agreement in its entirety. This summary of the Merger Agreement has been included to provide GE stockholders with information regarding its terms. The rights and obligations of the parties are governed by the express terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement and not by this summary or any other information included in this document. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about Wabtec, Merger Sub, GE or SpinCo. Information about Wabtec, Merger Sub, GE and SpinCo can be found elsewhere in this prospectus-information statement and in the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus-information statement. See also “Where You Can Find More Information; Incorporation by Reference.”

The Merger

Under the Merger Agreement and in accordance with the DGCL, at the effective time of the Merger, Merger Sub will merge with and into SpinCo. As a result of the Merger, the separate existence of Merger Sub will cease and SpinCo will continue as the surviving corporation and as a wholly owned subsidiary of Wabtec. From and after the effective time of the Merger, the surviving corporation will possess all the rights, powers, privileges and franchises and be subject to all of the obligations, liabilities, restrictions and disabilities of SpinCo and Merger Sub, all as provided under the DGCL. The certificate of incorporation and bylaws of Merger Sub in effect at the effective time of the Merger will be the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the surviving corporation until amended in accordance with applicable law, except the name of the surviving corporation will be as Wabtec may determine.

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, from and after the effective time of the Merger until successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified in accordance with applicable law, (i) the directors of Merger Sub at the effective time of the Merger will be the directors of the surviving corporation and (ii) the officers of SpinCo at the effective time of the Merger will be the officers of the surviving corporation.

Closing; Effective Time

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the closing of the Merger will take place as soon as possible, but in any event no later than two business days after the date the conditions precedent to the Merger (other than those to be satisfied at closing, but subject to their satisfaction) have been satisfied or, to the extent permissible, waived or on such other date as GE and Wabtec may mutually agree. At the closing, SpinCo and Merger Sub will file a certificate of merger with the Delaware Secretary of State and make all other filings or recordings required by the DGCL in connection with the Merger. The Merger will become effective at such time as the certificate of merger is duly filed with the Delaware Secretary of State (or at such later time as the parties may agree and as is specified in the certificate of merger).

Merger Consideration

The Merger Agreement provides that, at the effective time of the Merger, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Wabtec, Merger Sub, SpinCo or the holders of shares of SpinCo common stock, each share of SpinCo common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (except shares of SpinCo common stock held by SpinCo or Wabtec, which will be cancelled) will be converted into the right to receive a number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Wabtec common stock equal to the exchange ratio in the Merger Agreement. The exchange ratio will be determined prior to the closing of the Merger based on the number of shares of Wabtec common stock on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, on the one hand, and the number of shares of SpinCo common stock, on the other hand, in each case outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, such that the stockholders of SpinCo (including GE) will own shares of Wabtec common stock representing 50.1% of the shares of Wabtec common stock outstanding immediately following the Merger on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis. As described in the Merger Agreement, the exchange ratio equals the quotient of (a) the aggregate number of shares of Wabtec common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis multiplied by the quotient of 50.1% divided by 49.9%, divided by (b) the number of shares of SpinCo common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger. For example,

82

TABLE OF CONTENTS

solely for illustrative purposes, assume there are 1,000 shares of Wabtec common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis and 2,000 shares of SpinCo common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger. In order for holders of SpinCo common stock to own shares of Wabtec common stock representing 50.1% of the shares of Wabtec common stock immediately following the effective time of the Merger on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, Wabtec would have to issue to holders of the outstanding shares of SpinCo common stock a number of shares of Wabtec common stock equal to 1,000 multiplied by the quotient of 50.1% divided by 49.9%, or 1,004 shares of Wabtec common stock. The exchange ratio therefore would equal the quotient of 1,004 shares of Wabtec common stock divided by 2,000 shares of SpinCo common stock, or 0.502.

No fractional shares of Wabtec common stock will be issued pursuant to the Merger. All fractional shares of Wabtec common stock that a holder of shares of SpinCo common stock would otherwise be entitled to receive as a result of the Merger will be aggregated by the exchange agent, and the exchange agent will cause the whole shares obtained by such aggregation to be sold in the open market or otherwise at then-prevailing market prices no later than five business days after the Distribution. The exchange agent will pay the net proceeds of the sale, after deducting any required withholding taxes and brokerage charges, commissions and conveyance and similar taxes, on a pro rata basis, without interest, as soon as practicable to the holders of shares of SpinCo common stock that would otherwise be entitled to receive such fractional shares of Wabtec common stock pursuant to the Merger.

The merger consideration and cash in lieu of fractional shares (if any) paid in connection with the Merger will be reduced by any applicable withholding taxes as described below under “—Withholding Rights.”

Distribution of Per Share Merger Consideration

Prior to the effective time of the Merger, GE will designate a nationally recognized commercial bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to Wabtec to act as exchange agent for the benefit of the holders of SpinCo common stock. Prior to the effective time of the Merger, Wabtec will deposit or cause to be deposited with the exchange agent, for the benefit of holders of shares of SpinCo common stock, for exchange in accordance with the provisions of the Merger Agreement promptly after the effective time of the Merger, book-entry shares of Wabtec common stock representing the merger consideration issuable to holders of shares of SpinCo common stock as of the effective time of the Merger.

At the effective time of the Merger, all issued and outstanding shares of SpinCo common stock will be converted into the right to receive shares of Wabtec common stock as described above under “—Merger Consideration.” As promptly as practicable thereafter, Wabtec will cause the exchange agent to distribute the shares of Wabtec common stock into which the shares of SpinCo common stock have been converted pursuant to the Merger, which, in the case of shares of SpinCo common stock distributed in the Distribution, will be distributed on the same basis as shares of SpinCo common stock were distributed in the Distribution and to the persons who received shares of SpinCo common stock in the Distribution. Each holder of shares of SpinCo common stock will be entitled to receive in respect of the shares of SpinCo common stock held by such person a book-entry authorization representing the number of whole shares of Wabtec common stock that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the Merger (and cash in lieu of fractional shares of Wabtec common stock as described above under “—Merger Consideration”, together with any dividends or distributions and other amounts as described below under “—Distributions With Respect to Shares of Wabtec Common Stock after the Effective Time of the Merger”).

Distributions With Respect to Shares of Wabtec Common Stock after the Effective Time of the Merger

Subject to the following sentence, no dividends or other distributions declared after the effective time of the Merger with respect to Wabtec common stock will be paid with respect to any shares of Wabtec common stock that are not able to be distributed by the exchange agent promptly after the effective time of the Merger, whether due to a legal impediment to such distribution or otherwise. Subject to the effect of abandoned property, escheat, tax or other applicable laws, following the distribution of any such previously undistributed shares of Wabtec common stock, the record holder of such shares of Wabtec common stock will be paid, without interest:

| • | at the time of the distribution, the amount of cash payable in lieu of fractional shares of Wabtec common stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to the Merger Agreement and the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the effective time of the Merger paid before that time with respect to such whole shares of Wabtec common stock; and

83

TABLE OF CONTENTS

| • | at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the effective time of the Merger but prior to the distribution of such whole shares of Wabtec common stock and a payment date subsequent to the distribution of such whole shares of Wabtec common stock.

Wabtec is required under the Merger Agreement to deposit all such amounts with the exchange agent.

Termination of the Exchange Fund; No Liability

Any portion of the amounts deposited with the exchange agent under the Merger Agreement that remains undistributed to the former SpinCo stockholders on the one-year anniversary of the effective time of the Merger will be delivered to Wabtec upon demand. Subject to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar applicable law, any former SpinCo stockholders who have not received shares of Wabtec common stock (as described above under “—Merger Consideration”) may thereafter look only to Wabtec for the merger consideration to which they are entitled under the Merger Agreement (as described above under “—Merger Consideration”), any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Wabtec common stock to which they may be entitled under the Merger Agreement (as described above under “—Merger Consideration”) or any dividends or other distributions with respect to the Wabtec common stock to which they may be entitled under the Merger Agreement (as described above under “—Distributions With Respect to Shares of Wabtec Common Stock after the Effective Time of the Merger”).

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, none of Wabtec, GE, SpinCo, Merger Sub, the surviving corporation or the exchange agent will be liable to any person for any merger consideration deposited by Wabtec with the exchange agent (or dividends or distributions with respect to Wabtec common stock) or other cash, in each case delivered to a public official pursuant to any abandoned property, escheat or similar applicable law.

Withholding Rights

Each of the exchange agent, the surviving corporation, Wabtec and Merger Sub are entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts otherwise payable under the Merger Agreement such amount as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under any provision of tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts will be treated for all purposes of the Merger Agreement as having been paid to the former SpinCo stockholders otherwise entitled to such amounts in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

Stock Transfer Books

From and after the effective time of the Merger, the stock transfer books of SpinCo will be closed, and there will be no further registration of transfers of shares of SpinCo common stock after that time on the records of SpinCo.

Post-Closing Wabtec Board of Directors and Officers

The Merger Agreement provides that Wabtec will, and will cause the Wabtec Board to, take all actions necessary to cause three individuals designated by GE to be appointed to the Wabtec Board as of the effective time of the Merger, including by increasing the size of the Wabtec Board and appointing the GE designees to fill the vacancies. Each of the GE designees will qualify as an “independent director” under the rules of the NYSE and will be reasonably acceptable to the Nomination and Corporate Governance Committee of the Wabtec Board.

At the direction of GE, (i) one of the GE designees selected by GE will be assigned to the class of directors that is up for reelection at the first annual meeting of Wabtec stockholders that occurs after the effective time of the Merger, (ii) one of the GE designees selected by GE will be assigned to the class of directors that is up for reelection at the second annual meeting of Wabtec stockholders that occurs after the effective time of the Merger, and (iii) one of the GE designees selected by GE will be assigned to the class of directors that is up for reelection at the third annual meeting of Wabtec stockholders that occurs after the effective time of the Merger.

If the effective time of the Merger occurs within six months prior to the date of the 2019 annual meeting of Wabtec stockholders and prior to the date on which Wabtec commences mailing its proxy statement for the 2019 annual meeting of Wabtec stockholders, then Wabtec will, and will cause the Wabtec Board to, take all actions necessary to (i) nominate for election to the Wabtec Board at the 2019 annual meeting of Wabtec stockholders the GE designee selected by GE to be assigned to the class of directors that is up for reelection at

84

TABLE OF CONTENTS

the first annual meeting of Wabtec stockholders that occurs after the effective time of the Merger, (ii) recommend that Wabtec stockholders vote in favor of the election of such GE designee to the Wabtec Board and (iii) use no less rigorous efforts to support the election of such GE designee to the Wabtec Board than the efforts used to support the election of each other nominee of the Wabtec Board for election to the Wabtec Board at the 2019 annual meeting of Wabtec stockholders. If the effective time of the Merger occurs after the date on which Wabtec commences mailing its proxy statement for the 2019 annual meeting of Wabtec stockholders and prior to the 2019 annual meeting of Wabtec stockholders, then Wabtec will take all necessary action to cause the GE designee selected by GE to be assigned to the class of directors that is up for reelection at the first annual meeting of Wabtec stockholders that occurs after the effective time of the Merger to be re-appointed to the Wabtec Board as of immediately following the 2019 annual meeting of Wabtec stockholders (and to be re-assigned to the class of directors that was elected at the 2019 annual meeting of Wabtec stockholders).

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Wabtec is required to call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of its stockholders for the purpose of voting upon the Share Issuance and Wabtec Charter Amendment as promptly as reasonably practicable following the date on which the SEC clears Wabtec’s proxy statement relating to such stockholders meeting and, if required by the SEC as a condition to the mailing of the proxy statement, the date on which the registration statement of Wabtec registering the shares of Wabtec common stock required for the Share Issuance has been declared effective. Subject to the provisions of the Merger Agreement described below under “—Board Recommendation” and “—No Solicitation,” Wabtec agreed to use reasonable best efforts (consistent with the efforts customarily used in transactions of the type contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including engaging a proxy solicitor) to solicit from its stockholders proxies in favor of the approval of the Share Issuance and Wabtec Charter Amendment. At a special meeting held on November 14, 2018, Wabtec stockholders approved the Share Issuance and the Wabtec Charter Amendment.

Representations and Warranties

The Merger Agreement contains representations and warranties that Wabtec has made to GE and SpinCo, on the one hand, and GE has made to Wabtec, on the other hand, as of specific dates. No representations or warranties were made as of any dates other than the dates specified in the Merger Agreement. The assertions embodied in those representations and warranties were made solely for purposes of the Merger Agreement and may be subject to important qualifications and limitations agreed to by Wabtec and GE in connection with negotiating the terms of the Transactions or contained in other disclosure documentation. Such disclosure documentation may contain information that modifies, qualifies or creates exceptions to the representations and warranties set forth in the Merger Agreement. Moreover, the representations and warranties may be subject to contractual standards of materiality different from those generally applicable to stockholder communications, or may have been used for the purpose of allocating risk among Wabtec and GE. Accordingly, these representations and warranties may not describe the actual state of affairs as of the date they were made or at any other time. Wabtec, GE and SpinCo acknowledge that, notwithstanding the inclusion of the foregoing cautionary statements, they are responsible for considering whether additional specific disclosures of material information regarding material contractual provisions are required to ensure compliance with all applicable securities laws.

| • | enter into any agreement in principle, letter of intent, term sheet, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement or other similar instrument relating to an Acquisition Proposal or consummate any Acquisition Proposal.

In addition, Wabtec agreed that it will, and will cause its subsidiaries and its and their representatives to immediately cease and cause to be terminated any and all existing activities, discussions or negotiations, if any, with any third party and its representatives conducted prior to the date of the Merger Agreement with respect to any Acquisition Proposal and will use its reasonable best efforts to cause any such third party (together with its representatives) that has executed a confidentiality agreement within the 12-month period prior to the date of the Merger Agreement and that is in possession of confidential information furnished by or on behalf of Wabtec or any of its subsidiaries before the date of the Merger Agreement (and all analyses and other materials prepared by or on behalf of such person that contains, reflects or analyzes that information) to return or destroy all such information as promptly as practicable. Wabtec also represents and warrants to GE that, during the 12-month period prior to the date of the Merger Agreement, neither it nor any of its subsidiaries has granted any waiver or release under any standstill or similar agreement with respect to any class of equity securities of Wabtec or any of its subsidiaries.

Notwithstanding the covenants described in the foregoing paragraphs in this section, at any time prior to the receipt of the approval of Wabtec stockholders for the Share Issuance and the Wabtec Charter Amendment, Wabtec may, directly or indirectly through its representatives, furnish information to, and engage in negotiations or discussions with, a third party (and its representatives) who has made a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a breach of the Merger Agreement by Wabtec if, prior to furnishing such information and engaging in such negotiations and discussions, the Wabtec Board has:

| • | reasonably determined that the Acquisition Proposal constitutes, or is reasonably expected to lead to, a Superior Proposal (which is described below), and has determined (after consulting with outside legal counsel and its financial advisor) that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under the DGCL;

94

TABLE OF CONTENTS

| • | obtained from such third party a confidentiality agreement on terms no less favorable to Wabtec than those contained in Wabtec’s confidentiality agreement with GE and that include standstill obligations that Wabtec reasonably determines are customary and expressly allow Wabtec to comply with its obligations described in this section and delivered to GE a copy of the confidentiality agreement for informational purposes only; and

| • | provided or made available to GE all such information (to the extent that such information has not been previously provided or made available to GE) prior to or substantially concurrently with the time it is provided or made available to such third party.

Moreover, the Merger Agreement requires Wabtec to:

| • | advise GE on a prompt basis of the status and terms of any discussions and negotiations described in the preceding paragraph with any third party;

| • | notify (orally and in writing) GE promptly (but in no event later than the next business day) after receipt by Wabtec (or any of its representatives) of any Acquisition Proposal or any request for information relating to Wabtec or any of its subsidiaries or for access to the business, properties, assets, books or records of Wabtec or any of its subsidiaries by any third party that has made, is seeking to make or would reasonably be expected to make, an Acquisition Proposal, which notice must identify the third party making, and the terms and conditions of, any such Acquisition Proposal, indication or request;

| • | keep GE reasonably informed, on a prompt basis, of the status and details of any such Acquisition Proposal, indication or request; and

| • | promptly (but in no event later than the next business day after receipt) provide to GE copies of all correspondence and written materials sent or provided to Wabtec or any of its subsidiaries or any of its or their representatives that describes any material terms or conditions of any Acquisition Proposal (as well as written summaries of any oral communications addressing such matters).

The Merger Agreement provides that the term “Acquisition Proposal” means (other than the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement) any offer or proposal relating to, or any third party indication of interest in:

| • | any acquisition or purchase, direct or indirect, of 20% or more of the consolidated assets of Wabtec and its subsidiaries or 20% or more of any class of equity or voting securities of Wabtec or one or more of its subsidiaries whose assets, individually or in the aggregate, constitute 20% or more of the consolidated assets of Wabtec;

| • | any tender offer (including a self-tender offer) or exchange offer that, if consummated, would result in such third party’s beneficially owning 20% or more of any class of equity or voting securities of Wabtec or one or more of its subsidiaries whose assets, individually or in the aggregate, constitute 20% or more of the consolidated assets of Wabtec;

| • | a merger, consolidation, share exchange, business combination, sale of substantially all the assets, reorganization, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution or other similar transaction involving Wabtec or one or more of its subsidiaries whose assets, individually or in the aggregate, constitute 20% or more of the consolidated assets of Wabtec; or

| • | any combination of the foregoing.

The Merger Agreement provides that the term “Superior Proposal” means an unsolicited written Acquisition Proposal for a majority of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock or a majority of the consolidated assets of Wabtec and its subsidiaries on terms that the Wabtec Board determines by a majority vote, after considering the advice of a financial advisor and outside legal counsel and taking into account all the terms and conditions of the Acquisition Proposal, including any break-up fees, expense reimbursement provisions and conditions to consummation (and expected timing of consummation relative to the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement), are more favorable to Wabtec stockholders than as provided under the Merger

95

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Agreement (taking into account any proposal by GE to amend the terms of the Merger Agreement in response to such Acquisition Proposal), which the Wabtec Board determines is reasonably likely to be consummated and for which financing, if a cash transaction (whether in whole or in part), is then fully committed or reasonably determined to be available by the Wabtec Board.

Board Recommendation

Wabtec has agreed in the Merger Agreement that the Wabtec Board will not:

| • | either fail to make, or withdraw or modify in a manner adverse to GE or SpinCo, the Wabtec Board’s recommendation that Wabtec stockholders vote in favor of the Share Issuance and the Wabtec Charter Amendment (the “Wabtec Recommendation”);

| • | fail to recommend against acceptance of any tender or exchange offer for Wabtec common stock within 10 business days after the commencement of such offer; or

| • | approve, resolve to approve, adopt or recommend, or propose publicly to approve, resolve to approve, adopt or recommend, any Acquisition Proposal.

Any of the actions described in the foregoing bullet points constitutes an “Adverse Recommendation Change”.

In addition, notwithstanding the restrictions described above, at any time prior to obtaining Wabtec stockholder approval of the Share Issuance and the Wabtec Charter Amendment, the Wabtec Board may make an Adverse Recommendation Change following receipt of a Superior Proposal or in response to an Intervening Event (as defined below), but only if:

| • | the Wabtec Board has determined (after consulting with outside legal counsel and its financial advisor) that failure to make an Adverse Recommendation Change with respect to the Superior Proposal or Intervening Event, as applicable, would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under the DGCL;

| • | such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal (if such Adverse Recommendation Change is to be taken in circumstances involving or relating to an Acquisition Proposal);

| • | Wabtec promptly provides written notice to GE at least five business days before taking such action of its intention to do so, containing (i) in the case of any action intended to be taken in circumstances involving an Acquisition Proposal, the material terms of such Acquisition Proposal, including the most current version of the proposed agreement under which such Acquisition Proposal is proposed to be consummated and the identity of the third party making the Acquisition Proposal or (ii) in the case of any action to be taken in circumstances where there has been an Intervening Event, a reasonably detailed description of the underlying facts giving rise to, and the reasons for taking, such action;

| • | GE does not make, within five business days after its receipt of the notice described in the third bullet point of this paragraph, an offer that (i) in the case of any action intended to be taken in circumstances involving an Acquisition Proposal, is at least as favorable to the Wabtec stockholders as such Acquisition Proposal or (ii) in the case of any action to be taken in circumstances where there has been an Intervening Event, obviates the need for taking such action;

| • | during the five business day period following delivery of the notice described in the third bullet point of this paragraph (and three business day period in respect of a subsequent revised Acquisition Proposal described in the following bullet point), Wabtec and its representatives negotiate in good faith with GE and its representatives regarding any revisions proposed by GE to the terms of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; and

| • | if there is any amendment to the financial or other material terms of the Acquisition Proposal during the five business day period following delivery of the notice described in the third bullet point of this paragraph, Wabtec provides a new written notice of the terms of such amended Acquisition Proposal giving GE an additional three business day period to make an offer or proposal to revise the terms of the Merger Agreement in a manner that the Wabtec Board determines to be at least as favorable to Wabtec stockholders as such amended Acquisition Proposal.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The Merger Agreement provides that the term “Intervening Event” means material events or changes in circumstances the existence or consequences of which were not known to, or reasonably foreseeable by, Wabtec as of or prior to the date of the Merger Agreement and that do not relate to or involve any Acquisition Proposal, except that in no event will any changes resulting from the following constitute or be deemed to contribute to or otherwise be taken into account in determining whether there has been an Intervening Event:

| • | changes (or proposed changes) in GAAP, the regulatory accounting requirements applicable to any industry in which GE, SpinCo or any of their respective subsidiaries operate or applicable law, in each case to the extent affecting GE Transportation;

| • | changes in the financial, credit or securities markets (including changes in prevailing interest rates, credit availability and liquidity, currency exchange rates, price levels or trading volumes in any securities market) or general economic or political conditions, in each case to the extent affecting GE Transportation;

| • | changes or conditions generally affecting the industry or segments thereof in which GE, SpinCo or any of their respective subsidiaries operate, in each case to the extent affecting GE Transportation;

| • | acts of war, sabotage or terrorism or natural disasters, in each case to the extent affecting GE Transportation;

| • | the announcement of the Transactions or the identity of GE or Wabtec, including, in each case, with respect to employees, customers, distributors, suppliers, financing sources, landlords, licensors and licensees;

| • | any failure by Wabtec or any of its subsidiaries, GE or any of its subsidiaries or GE Transportation to meet any internal or published budgets, projections, forecasts or predictions of financial performance for any period or any change in GE or Wabtec’s stock price or trading volume (except that the underlying cause of, or factors contributing to, such failure or change may be taken into account in determining whether there has been an Intervening Event, unless such underlying cause or factor would otherwise be excepted by another bullet point of this paragraph);

| • | actions required or expressly contemplated by the Merger Agreement to be taken by Wabtec, Merger Sub, GE, SpinCo or any of their respective affiliates;

| • | actions taken by GE, SpinCo or any of their respective affiliates at the written direction, or with the written consent, of Wabtec; or

| • | any stockholder or derivative litigation arising from or relating to the Merger Agreement or the Transactions.

In addition, the Merger Agreement provides that Wabtec is not prohibited from complying with Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act with regard to an Acquisition Proposal so long as any action taken or statement made to so comply is not in breach of the Merger Agreement; provided that any such action taken or statement made that relates to an Acquisition Proposal will be deemed to be an Adverse Recommendation Change unless the Wabtec Board reaffirms the Wabtec Recommendation in such statement or in connection with such action.

Financing

Simultaneously with the execution of the Merger Agreement, Wabtec entered into the Commitment Letter, as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Debt Financing.”

The Merger Agreement provides that Wabtec will, and will cause its subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to take all actions necessary, proper or advisable to arrange the debt financing as promptly as practicable prior to the closing of the Merger on the terms and conditions set forth in the Commitment Letter. Furthermore, Wabtec is required to, and to cause its subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to:

| • | maintain the Commitment Letter in effect until the earlier of the initial funding of the debt financing or the effectiveness of definitive agreements with respect thereto;

97

TABLE OF CONTENTS

| • | negotiate definitive agreements with respect to the debt financing, on the terms and conditions contained in the Commitment Letter or on such other terms that would not be prohibited by the Merger Agreement, and upon effectiveness thereof, maintain such definitive agreements in effect until the initial funding of the debt financing;

| • | comply with the obligations that are set forth in the Commitment Letter that are applicable to Wabtec or any of its subsidiaries and satisfy on a timely basis all conditions precedent to the availability of the debt financing set forth in the Commitment Letter and the definitive agreements for the debt financing (upon the effectiveness thereof) that are within its control; and

| • | fully enforce the rights of Wabtec under the Commitment Letter and the definitive agreements for the debt financing (upon the effectiveness thereof).

The Merger Agreement provides that if all or any portion of the financing contemplated by the Commitment Letter or the related definitive agreements becomes unavailable or it becomes reasonably likely that it may become unavailable (in each case, other than as a result of the existence of Wabtec financing (as described below)), on the terms and conditions contemplated in the Commitment Letter or such definitive agreements, Wabtec will, and will cause its subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to obtain promptly alternative financing, from the same or alternative financing sources, that is sufficient to finance the payments to be made to GE under the Separation Agreement and the Merger Agreement on terms that (x) do not contain conditions precedent to the funding that are less favorable to Wabtec than those in the Commitment Letter, (y) are consistent with the intended tax treatment of the Transactions, as reasonably determined by GE, and (z) have been approved in writing by GE (which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Wabtec will be subject to the same obligations described in this section with respect to any such alternative financing arrangements.

Wabtec has agreed to keep GE informed of the status of its efforts to arrange the debt financing contemplated under the Commitment Letter and to provide GE prompt notice if it or any of its subsidiaries obtain knowledge of any material breach (or threatened material breach) or default (or any event or circumstance that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, could reasonably be expected to give rise to any material breach or default) by any party to the Commitment Letter or the related definitive agreements, any actual or threatened withdrawal, repudiation or termination of the financing contemplated by the Commitment Letter by any of the lenders, any material dispute or disagreement between or among any of the parties to the Commitment Letter or the related definitive agreements relating to, or otherwise potentially affecting, the amount or the availability of the financing contemplated by the Commitment Letter on the closing date of the Merger or satisfaction of the conditions thereunder; and any amendment or modification of, or waiver under, the Commitment Letter or the related definitive agreements. Wabtec will give GE prompt written notice if for any reason it believes in good faith that Wabtec will not be able to timely obtain all or any portion of the financing contemplated by the Commitment Letter on the terms and in the manner or from the sources contemplated by the Commitment Letter or the related definitive agreements (other than as a result of Wabtec financing (as described below)).

Except in limited circumstances, Wabtec may not, without GE’s consent, amend, modify, supplement, restate, substitute, replace, terminate, or agree to any waiver under the Commitment Letter in a manner that adds new or expands upon the conditions precedent to the funding or that would reduce the aggregate amount of the financing provided for under the Commitment Letter, limit the rights and remedies of Wabtec as against the lenders party to the debt financing contemplated under the Commitment Letter or otherwise prevent, impair or materially delay the consummation of the Transactions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Wabtec may implement or exercise any of the “market flex” provisions exercised by such lenders in accordance with the fee letters relating to the debt financing that were entered into concurrently with the Merger Agreement (or, in respect of any alternative financing, in accordance with the “market flex” provisions exercised by the lenders in accordance with any fee letter relating thereto), and additional lenders and financing sources, and affiliates thereof, may be added (including in replacement of a lender) to the Commitment Letter (or all or a portion of the commitments may be assigned to new or existing lenders and financing sources) after the date of the Merger Agreement or the date of the Commitment Letter and Wabtec may reallocate commitments or assign or re-assign titles and roles to or among parties to the Commitment Letter.

Notwithstanding anything in the Merger Agreement, Wabtec has the right (i) to substitute for all or any portion of the financing contemplated by the Commitment Letter by reducing commitments under the Commitment

98

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Letter by an amount not in excess of the proceeds of consummated equity offerings or debt offerings or incurrences of debt provided that (A) if any such equity or debt has a scheduled special or mandatory redemption right, such right is not exercisable prior to the earliest of the closing or termination of the Merger Agreement and the End Date (as defined below under “—Termination”) and (B) the conditions to the use of such proceeds are no more restrictive than the conditions precedent to the availability of the financing set forth in the Commitment Letter, and (ii) to substitute commitments in respect of other financing for all or any portion of the financing contemplated by the Commitment Letter from the same or alternative bona fide third party financing sources, provided that such other financing (A) does not contain conditions precedent to the funding thereof that are less favorable to Wabtec than the conditions precedent with respect to funding set forth in the Commitment Letter, (B) would not reasonably be expected to prevent, impair or materially delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (including not having conditions to the use of such proceeds more restrictive than the conditions set forth in the Wabtec Commitment) and (C) would not adversely affect the ability of Wabtec to enforce its rights against other parties to the Commitment Letter or any related definitive agreements (any such financing pursuant to the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the “Wabtec financing”). Wabtec also agreed to hold the proceeds from any such Wabtec financing as unrestricted cash until the earliest of the closing or termination of the Merger Agreement and the End Date (as described under “—Termination”).

Prior to the closing of the Merger, GE has agreed to, and to cause its subsidiaries to, at Wabtec’s expense, use reasonable best efforts to provide the cooperation reasonably requested by Wabtec that is necessary, proper or customary in connection with the arrangement and consummation of the debt financing or the Wabtec financing, including taking certain actions set forth in the relevant section of the Merger Agreement.

In addition, subject to specified qualifications and exceptions, Wabtec may terminate the Merger Agreement if:

| • | if (i) Wabtec or GE terminates the Merger Agreement because the Merger has not been consummated by the End Date (if the Wabtec stockholder approval of the Share Issuance and Wabtec Charter Amendment has not been received) or the Wabtec stockholders fail to approve the Share Issuance or the Wabtec Charter Amendment or there is a Termination for Wabtec’s Material Breach, (ii) prior to the termination of the Merger Agreement, an Acquisition Proposal is publicly announced or otherwise has been communicated to the Wabtec Board or the management of Wabtec or Wabtec stockholders, and (iii) within 12 months after the date of termination, Wabtec enters into a definitive agreement with respect to, or recommends to its stockholders, any Acquisition Proposal or any Acquisition Proposal has been consummated; provided that solely for purpose of this provision, references to “20%” in the definition of Acquisition Proposal will be deemed to refer to “50%”;

| • | if Wabtec or GE terminates the Merger Agreement because (i) the End Date has passed or (ii) any governmental authority of any competent jurisdiction has issued an order, judgment or decree that has the effect of permanently prohibiting the consummation of the Transactions and such order has become

final and nonappealable (solely in respect of the matters described in (A) or (B) below), if, as of the time of such termination, one or more of the conditions to closing set forth in the Merger Agreement (discussed above) relating to (A) the termination or expiration of any applicable waiting period under the HSR Act relating to the Merger, (B) taking, making or obtaining all material actions by, consents or approvals of, or in respect of or filing with any governmental authority required to permit the consummation of the closing of the Merger or (C) any order, judgment or decree issued by a governmental authority of competent jurisdiction that is in effect and has the effect of permanently prohibiting the consummation of the Merger (if the order, judgment or decree relates to any of the matters references in (A) and (B)) have not been satisfied, but all Wabtec Conditions to the Merger (other than those conditions which by their terms or nature are to be satisfied at the closing, but provided that such conditions not so satisfied are capable of being satisfied promptly if the closing of the Merger were to occur) have been satisfied or waived;

| • | if there is a Termination for Wabtec’s Material Breach in respect of Wabtec’s obligations described above under “—Regulatory Matters”; or

| • | if GE terminates the Merger Agreement because (i) any governmental authority of any competent jurisdiction has issued an order, judgment or decree that has the effect of permanently prohibiting the consummation of the Transactions, which such order has not become final and nonappealable and (ii) Wabtec fails to (A) institute appropriate proceedings seeking to have such order, judgment or decree vacated, lifted reversed, overturn or terminated within 30 days of such order, judgment or decree first being in effect or (B) use reasonable best efforts to have such order, judgment or decree vacated, lifted reversed, overturn or terminated thereafter.

The parties acknowledge that in no event will Wabtec be required to pay more than one termination fee.

If the Merger Agreement had been terminated because Wabtec stockholders had failed to approve the Share Issuance and the Wabtec Charter Amendment at the meeting of Wabtec stockholders, Wabtec would have been required to reimburse GE and SpinCo and their respective affiliates in cash for all of their out-of-pocket fees and expenses in connection with the Transactions after submission of written documentation therefor, up to a maximum of $40 million. Any such fees and expenses reimbursed by Wabtec would have reduced the amount of the termination fee payable in the circumstances described the second bullet point above.

Except as described in this section and subject to certain exceptions, the Merger Agreement provides that all out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the Merger Agreement and the Transactions are to be paid by the party incurring the expenses.

If Wabtec fails to pay the termination fee or expenses described above when due, the amount of such payment will be increased to include the costs of all expenses reasonably incurred by GE and SpinCo in connection with a legal action to enforce the Merger Agreement that results in a judgment against Wabtec, together with interest on the unpaid termination fee or expense. Payment of the fees and expenses described in this section will not be in lieu of any damages incurred in the event of willful and material breach of the Merger Agreement.

Specific Performance

In the Merger Agreement, the parties acknowledge that irreparable damage would occur, and that the parties would not have any adequate remedy at law, in the event that any of the provisions of the Merger Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, the parties will be entitled to an injunction to prevent breaches of the Merger Agreement and to enforce the Merger Agreement, without proof of actual damages or otherwise, in addition to any other remedy to which any party is entitled at law or in equity, without the requirement for securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy. The parties to the Merger Agreement further agree not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to law or inequitable for any reason, or that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, while GE may pursue both a grant of specific performance of Wabtec’s and Merger Sub’s obligations pursuant to the Merger Agreement and the payment of the termination fee, the parties to the Merger Agreement agree that under no circumstances will GE or any person be entitled to receive both a grant of specific performance for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and any termination fee described above under “—Termination Fee and Expenses,” unless such grant of specific performance is not complied with or does not result in the consummation of the Merger.

Amendments; Waivers

No provision of the Merger Agreement may be amended or waived except by an instrument in writing signed by, in the case of an amendment, all of the parties to the Merger Agreement, or, in the case of a waiver, by the party or parties against whom the waiver is to be effective. For any amendments or waivers to the sections of the Merger Agreement relating to amendments and waivers, successors and assigns, governing law, jurisdiction, waiver of jury trial, third-party beneficiaries and non-recourse to certain non-parties to the Merger Agreement that, in each case, adversely affect any of Wabtec’s financing sources, the prior written consent of the affected financing sources will be required before such amendment or waiver is effective with respect to such affected financing source.

The party retaining such asset will hold such asset in trust for the use and benefit and burden of the other (at such other party’s expense) until properly conveyed.

Upon such separation of such shared contract, the separated contract will be a SpinCo Asset or an Excluded Asset, as applicable. The obligations of the parties to seek separation will terminate on the first anniversary of the Distribution Date or, if earlier with respect to any such identified shared contract, upon the expiration of the term of such shared contract.

Certain Additional Agreements

The Separation Agreement requires that on or prior to the Distribution Date, GE and Wabtec will, and will cause their respective applicable affiliates to, execute and deliver prior to the Distribution Effective Time all conveyance and assumption instruments as may be necessary to effect the Internal Reorganization and the transfers of the SpinCo Assets, the SpinCo Liabilities, the Direct Sale Assets, the Direct Sale Liabilities, the Excluded Assets and the Excluded Liabilities, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of the Separation Agreement.

In addition, on the Distribution Date, each of GE, SpinCo, Wabtec and Direct Sale Purchaser will, and will cause each of their applicable subsidiaries to, execute and deliver each of the Additional Agreements, as more fully described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Other Agreements.”

Intercompany Agreements and Intercompany Accounts

All contracts between GE or any of its subsidiaries on behalf of any of a GE business other than GE Transportation, on the one hand, and GE or any of its subsidiaries on behalf of GE Transportation, on the other hand, will be terminated at or prior to the Distribution Effective Time, except for certain agreements like the Transaction Documents, conveyance and assignment agreements and certain contracts listed on a schedule to the Separation Agreement. In addition, all outstanding intercompany accounts, including intercompany liabilities, between GE or any of its subsidiaries on behalf of a GE business other than GE Transportation, on the one hand, and GE or any of its subsidiaries on behalf of GE Transportation, on the other hand, will be satisfied, settled or otherwise terminated no later than the Distribution Effective Time, except for any surviving intercompany accounts (as defined above under “—SpinCo Liabilities”).

Cash, Debt and Receivables Adjustment

Within 60 days after the Distribution Date, (i) SpinCo will prepare and submit to GE a statement that sets forth its calculation of (A) the SpinCo Cash Amount (as defined below) as of immediately prior to the Distribution Effective Time, (B) SpinCo Indebtedness (as defined below) as of immediately prior to the Distribution Effective Time, and (C) the Excess Factored Customer Receivables (as defined below), if any, which, in each case, will be prepared in accordance with certain accounting principles set forth on a schedule to the Separation Agreement (the “SpinCo Proposed Statement”) and (ii) Direct Sale Purchaser will prepare and submit to GE a statement that sets forth its calculation of (A) the Direct Sale Cash Amount (as defined below) as of immediately prior to the consummation of the Direct Sale and (B) the Direct Sale Indebtedness (as defined below) as of immediately prior to the consummation of the Direct Sale), which, in each case, will be prepared in accordance with certain accounting principles set forth on a schedule to the Separation Agreement (the “Direct Sale Proposed Statement”).

The Separation Agreement sets forth the procedures to be followed regarding the provision of information and in the event that GE disputes the correctness of the SpinCo Proposed Statement or the Direct Sale Proposed Statement.

If the SpinCo Adjustment Amount (as defined below) or the Direct Sale Adjustment Amount (as defined below), in each case, as finally determined in accordance to the provisions above, is a positive number, then within three

113

business days following the final determination of the SpinCo Adjustment Amount or the Direct Sale Adjustment Amount, as the case may be, SpinCo or Direct Sale Purchaser, as applicable, will pay to GE in immediately available funds via wire transfer an amount equal to such SpinCo Adjustment Amount or the Direct Sale Adjustment Amount, as applicable. If the SpinCo Adjustment Amount or the Direct Sale Adjustment Amount, in each case, as finally determined in accordance to the provisions above, is a negative number, then within three business days following the final determination of the SpinCo Adjustment Amount or the Direct Sale Adjustment Amount, as the case may be, GE will pay to SpinCo or Direct Sale Purchaser, as applicable, in immediately available funds via wire transfer an amount equal to the absolute value of such SpinCo Adjustment Amount or the Direct Sale Adjustment Amount, as applicable.

Under the Separation Agreement, the following terms have the following meanings:

| • | “Direct Sale Cash Amount” means, whether positive or negative, as of any time, the aggregate amount of cash and cash equivalents held by any Direct Sale Transferred Subsidiary (in each case other than restricted cash held by any Direct Sale Transferred Subsidiary), including the amount of any checks and drafts (including both written and electronic fund transfer orders) (i) received by any Direct Sale Transferred Subsidiary but not yet deposited and (ii) deposited for the account of any Direct Sale Transferred Subsidiary but not yet cleared as of immediately prior to the consummation of the Direct Sale (but only to the extent actually cleared after such time), except that the value of any cash and cash equivalents held in non-U.S. jurisdictions will be determined in accordance with the accounting principles listed on a schedule to the Separation Agreement. The Direct Sale Cash Amount will be reduced by an amount equal to any cut but uncashed checks as of immediately prior to the consummation of the Direct Sale (to the extent that such cut but uncashed checks are drawn from bank accounts that are included in the Direct Sale Assets or which obligations otherwise constitute Direct Sale Liabilities).

| • | “Direct Sale Indebtedness” means, without duplication, any indebtedness of any Direct Sale Transferred Subsidiary, excluding any liabilities solely between Direct Sale Transferred Subsidiaries.

| • | “Direct Sale Adjustment Amount” means, whether positive or negative, an amount equal to Direct Sale Closing Cash (as finally determined in accordance with the provisions above) minus Direct Sale Closing Indebtedness (as finally determined in accordance with the provisions above).

| • | “SpinCo Cash Amount” means, whether positive or negative, as of any time, the aggregate amount of cash and cash equivalents held by SpinCo or any SpinCo Transferred Subsidiary (in each case other than restricted cash held by SpinCo or any SpinCo Transferred Subsidiary), including the amount of any checks and drafts (including both written and electronic fund transfer orders) (i) received by SpinCo or any SpinCo Transferred Subsidiary but not yet deposited and (ii) deposited for the account of SpinCo or any SpinCo Transferred Subsidiary but not yet cleared as of immediately prior to the Distribution Effective Time (but only to the extent actually cleared after such time), except that the value of any cash and cash equivalents held in non-U.S. jurisdictions will be determined in accordance with the accounting principles listed on a schedule to the Separation Agreement. The SpinCo Cash Amount will be reduced by an amount equal to any cut but uncashed checks as of immediately prior to the Distribution Effective Time (to the extent that such cut but uncashed checks are drawn from bank accounts that are included in the SpinCo Assets or which obligations otherwise constitute SpinCo Liabilities).

| • | “SpinCo Indebtedness” means, without duplication, any indebtedness of SpinCo or any SpinCo Transferred Subsidiary, excluding any liabilities solely between SpinCo and any SpinCo Transferred Subsidiaries or between SpinCo Transferred Subsidiaries.

Issuance of SpinCo Common Stock

On or before the Distribution Date, in connection with the SpinCo transfer, SpinCo will issue and deliver to GE 8,700,000,000 shares of SpinCo common stock in book-entry form or such other amount as GE determines, subject to the consent of Wabtec not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Distribution

The Separation Agreement provides that the Distribution may be effected, at GE’s option, by way of a spin-off, a split-off or a combination thereof. As previously noted, this prospectus-information statement has been prepared under the assumption that the Distribution Shares will be distributed to GE stockholders pursuant to a spin-off. Based on market conditions prior to the closing of the Merger, corporate finance considerations and timing considerations, GE will determine whether the Distribution Shares will be distributed to GE’s stockholders in a spin-off or split-off.

Conditions to the Distribution and the Direct Sale

The obligations of GE, Wabtec and Direct Sale Purchaser to consummate the Direct Sale and the obligations of GE to commence and consummate the Distribution are subject to the prior or simultaneous satisfaction or, to the extent permitted by applicable law, waiver of each of the conditions to the obligation of the parties to the Merger Agreement to consummate the Merger and effect the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied contemporaneously with or immediately following the Direct Sale or the Distribution which such conditions are capable of being satisfied at such date), in each case as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “The Merger Agreement—Conditions to the Merger.” The parties to the Separation Agreement agree that the Distribution Effective Time will occur on the same date as the closing of the Merger.

Disclaimer

Except as expressly provided otherwise in any Transaction Document, each party, on behalf of itself and each of its affiliates, has agreed that no other party nor any of their respective affiliates is making any representation or warranty of any kind whatsoever, express or implied, to the other parties or any of their respective affiliates or to any other person in respect of the transactions contemplated by the Separation Agreement or any information that may have been exchanged or provided pursuant to the Separation Agreement or any other Transaction Document, and that all SpinCo Assets are being assigned and transferred, and all SpinCo Liabilities are being assumed, on an “as is,” “where is” basis, with no representation or warranty of any kind.

Mutual Release; Indemnification; Limitation of Liability

Both GE and SpinCo will release each other and specified related parties from any and all liabilities existing or arising from any acts or events occurring (or failing to occur) or any conditions existing or alleged to have existed, in each case, on or prior to the Distribution Effective Time. The Separation Agreement, however, provides the release described above will not limit or otherwise affect any person’s rights or obligations pursuant to or contemplated by, or the ability to enforce, any surviving intercompany agreement or surviving intercompany account (as defined above under “—SpinCo Liabilities”).

115

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The Separation Agreement provides that, without limiting the indemnity provisions of the Additional Agreements, following the Distribution Effective Time, GE will indemnify, defend (or, where applicable, pay the defense costs for) and hold harmless SpinCo, its affiliates and their respective representatives and successors and assigns (the “SpinCo indemnitees”) from and against, and will reimburse such SpinCo indemnitees with respect to, any and all liabilities, including damages, losses, deficiencies, obligations, penalties, judgments, settlements, claims, payments, fines and other costs and expenses of any and all actions, demands, assessments, judgments, settlements and compromises relating thereto and the reasonable costs and expenses of attorneys’, accountants’, consultants’ and other professionals’ fees and expenses incurred in the investigation or defense thereof or the enforcement of rights under the Separation Agreement (subject to the limitations in the Separation Agreement, “indemnifiable losses”) of the SpinCo indemnitees to the extent arising out of, resulting from or related to (without duplication): (a) any Excluded Liabilities, including the failure of GE or any of its subsidiaries that is not a Transferred Subsidiary to assume any Excluded Liabilities or (b) any breach by GE or any of its subsidiaries that is not a Transferred Subsidiary of any obligations to be performed by such persons pursuant to the Separation Agreement after the Distribution Effective Time.

In addition, the Separation Agreement provides that, without limiting the indemnity provisions of the Additional Agreements, following the Distribution Effective Time, Wabtec will indemnify, defend (or, where applicable, pay the defense costs for) and hold harmless GE, its affiliates and their respective representatives and successors and assigns (the “GE indemnitees”) from and against, and will reimburse such GE indemnitees with respect to, any and all indemnifiable losses of the GE indemnitees to the extent arising out of, resulting from or related to (without duplication): (a) any SpinCo Liabilities, including the failure of any member of SpinCo or any SpinCo Transferred Subsidiary to assume any SpinCo Liabilities, (b) any Direct Sale Liabilities, including the failure of Direct Sale Purchaser to assume any Direct Sale Liabilities, or (c) any breach by SpinCo, any Transferred Subsidiary, Wabtec or Direct Sale Purchaser of any obligations to be performed by such persons pursuant to the Separation Agreement after the Distribution Effective Time.

The Separation Agreement provides that, after the Distribution, the sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any breach of the Separation Agreement or any conveyance and assumption instrument entered into in connection with the Separation Agreement will be a claim for indemnification as described above, except that the foregoing will not impair any person’s right to specific performance or equitable relief under any of the Transaction Documents.

Under the Separation Agreement, the amount of any indemnifiable losses will be reduced by:

| • | any insurance proceeds or third-party proceeds actually received by or on behalf of the applicable indemnitee corresponding to any such indemnifiable loss, in each case net of the costs of collection of such indemnifiable loss and any increase in premium attributable thereto, and, in the case of any insurance proceeds, net of any applicable deductible or retention; and

| • | any tax benefit actually realized by the applicable indemnitee arising from the incurrence or payment of any such indemnifiable loss (determined on a “with and without” basis and by treating the loss or deduction (or a carryforward thereof) attributable to such indemnifiable loss as the last item taken into account in determining the applicable indemnitee’s tax liability).

All rights and obligations of GE and Wabtec with respect to indemnification for tax matters will be governed by the Tax Matters Agreement and will not be subject to the provisions of the Separation Agreement described in this section (see the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Other Agreements—Tax Matters Agreement”).

The Separation Agreement provides for certain limitations in connection with indemnification sought by the parties for indemnifiable losses, including the following:

| • | no indemnitee will be entitled to payment or indemnification more than once with respect to the same matter; and

| • | no party will have any right to set off any losses (including indemnifiable losses) against any payments to be made by any such party under any other agreement between the parties, including the Transaction Documents.

116

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The Separation Agreement provides each party will, and will cause its subsidiaries to, use commercially reasonable efforts to collect or recover, or allow the indemnifying party to collect or recover, or cooperate with each other in collecting or recovering, any insurance proceeds that may be collectible or recoverable with respect to indemnifiable losses. If an indemnifying party makes any payment for any indemnifiable losses pursuant to the provisions described above, such indemnifying party will be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to all rights and remedies of the indemnitee to any insurance benefits or other claims of the indemnitee with respect to such indemnifiable losses and the matters giving rise to such indemnifiable losses.

If the indemnification described above is unavailable for any reason to an indemnitee in respect of any indemnifiable loss (other than, and to the extent resulting from, failure to provide notice with respect to any third-party claims in accordance with the Separation Agreement), then the indemnifying party will contribute to the indemnifiable losses incurred, paid or payable by such indemnitee as a result of such indemnifiable loss in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of Wabtec, Direct Sale Purchaser, SpinCo and each Transferred Subsidiary, on the one hand, and GE and each of its subsidiaries that is not Transferred Subsidiaries, on the other hand, in connection with the circumstances which resulted in such indemnifiable loss. Solely for purposes of determining relative fault under the contribution provisions in the Separation Agreement: (a) any fault associated with the conduct of any GE business other than GE Transportation prior to the Distribution Effective Time will be deemed to be allocated to GE and its subsidiaries that are not Transferred Subsidiaries, and no such fault will be deemed to be the fault of SpinCo or any Transferred Subsidiary; and (b) any fault associated with the conduct of GE Transportation prior to the Distribution Effective Time will be deemed to be the fault of SpinCo and the Transferred Subsidiaries, and no such fault will be deemed to be the fault of GE or any of its subsidiaries that are not Transferred Subsidiaries.

SpinCo, for itself and its affiliates, has agreed that the rights of SpinCo and the Transferred Subsidiaries and their respective affiliates to the GE Names and Marks pursuant to the terms of any trademark agreements or otherwise between GE or any of its affiliates, on the one hand, and SpinCo, any of the Transferred Subsidiaries or their respective affiliates, on the other, will terminate on the Distribution Date and be replaced by such rights as are provided by the Separation Agreement and the Trademark License Agreement.

| • | use best efforts to adopt new corporate names as soon as possible after the Distribution Effective Time.

Further Action Regarding Intellectual Property Rights

If, after the Distribution Date, GE or SpinCo identifies any item of (i) SpinCo intellectual property, (ii) SpinCo data/technology, (iii) SpinCo software, (iv) registrable intellectual property owned by GE or any of its subsidiaries that was not set forth on the schedules to the Separation Agreement listing the same but for which GE Transportation is responsible as reflected in GE’s intellectual property rights docketing systems (it being understood that GE and SpinCo will discuss in good faith any identified misallocation of designations of responsibility within such docketing systems) (“unscheduled registrable intellectual property”) or (v) intellectual property rights (other than registrable intellectual property and the GE Names and Marks), data or technology owned by GE or any of its subsidiaries that is not used exclusively in GE Transportation or set forth on the schedules to the Separation Agreement listing the same but for which GE Transportation is responsible as reflected in GE’s intellectual property rights docketing systems (it being understood that GE and SpinCo will discuss in good faith any identified misallocation of designations of responsibility within such docketing systems) (“SpinCo docketed intellectual property/data/technology”), in each case, that inadvertently was not previously transferred or set forth on the applicable annex to the Separation Agreement, as applicable, by GE, any of its

118

TABLE OF CONTENTS

subsidiaries that are not Transferred Subsidiaries or any of their affiliates to SpinCo, then, to the extent that GE has the right to do so and without paying additional consideration (other than a nominal fee (e.g., $1)) to a third party, GE will (or will cause any of its subsidiaries that are not Transferred Subsidiaries or its affiliates to) transfer such SpinCo intellectual property, SpinCo data/technology, SpinCo software, unscheduled registrable intellectual property or SpinCo docketed intellectual property/data/technology to SpinCo pursuant to the terms of the Separation Agreement for no additional consideration, except that if such transfer requires payment of additional consideration, then SpinCo may elect to have such license so transferred at its own expense.

Further, until such time as the transfers described above have been effected, GE and its subsidiaries that are not Transferred Subsidiaries, on behalf of themselves and their affiliates, have granted to SpinCo and the SpinCo Transferred Subsidiaries, effective as of the Distribution Date, (i) a non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid-up, worldwide, irrevocable, sublicensable and transferable right and license (or sublicense, as the case may be) to fully use, practice and otherwise exploit such SpinCo intellectual property, SpinCo software, SpinCo data/technology, unscheduled registrable intellectual property, or SpinCo docketed intellectual property/data/technology controlled by GE or any of its subsidiaries that is not a Transferred Subsidiary, as applicable, and its affiliates and (ii) a covenant not to sue with respect to the foregoing activities.

In addition, if, after the Distribution Date, GE or SpinCo identifies any item of GE intellectual property, GE software or GE data/technology (other than unscheduled registrable intellectual property and SpinCo docketed intellectual property/data/technology) that was (i) transferred by GE or any of its subsidiaries that is not a Transferred Subsidiary or any of its affiliates or (ii) owned by SpinCo or a SpinCo Transferred Subsidiary prior to the Distribution Date and that was not transferred to GE or an affiliate of GE prior to the Distribution Date, SpinCo will, or will cause the SpinCo Transferred Subsidiary to, promptly transfer such GE intellectual property, GE software or GE data/technology to GE or its designated affiliate pursuant to the terms of the Separation Agreement for no additional consideration.

Further, until such time as the transfers described above have been effected, SpinCo, on behalf of itself and its affiliates, has granted to GE and its affiliates, effective as of the Distribution Date, (i) a non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid-up, worldwide, irrevocable, sublicensable and transferable right and license (or sublicense, as the case may be) to fully use, practice and otherwise exploit such GE intellectual property, GE software or GE data/technology controlled by SpinCo or its affiliates and (ii) a covenant not to sue with respect to the foregoing activities.

Third Party Licenses

Under the Separation Agreement, the parties have agreed that, to the extent that any intellectual property rights, software, technology or data included in SpinCo Assets or Direct Sale Assets is licensed or sublicensed from a third party under a contract (other than a contract constituting a SpinCo Asset), such intellectual property rights, software, technology or data is subject to all of the terms and conditions of the contract between GE or any of its subsidiaries that is not a Transferred Subsidiary and such third party pursuant to which such intellectual property rights, software, technology or data has been licensed or sublicensed to GE or any of its subsidiaries that is not a Transferred Subsidiary, as applicable, including limitations to the field or scope of use.

Factored Customer Receivables

Under the Separation Agreement, GE has agreed to cause GE Transportation not to have any accounts receivable of GE Transportation as of the Distribution Effective Time sold or otherwise transferred or divested by GE Transportation to any person or entity, or otherwise subject to any factoring arrangement, as of the Distribution Effective Time, other than Factored Customer Receivables (as defined above under “—Separation of GE Transportation—Cash, Debt and Receivables Adjustment”).

Access to Information

GE and SpinCo have also agreed to make their respective personnel available during regular business hours to discuss the information exchanged pursuant to the foregoing and inform their respective representatives who have or have access to the other party’s information provided pursuant to the foregoing of their obligation to hold such information confidential in accordance with the provisions of the Separation Agreement.

Matters related to the provision of tax records for tax matters will be governed by the Tax Matters Agreement and will not be subject to the provisions of the Separation Agreement described in this section (see the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Other Agreements—Tax Matters Agreement”).

Insurance

From and after the Distribution Date, SpinCo and the Transferred Subsidiaries will cease to be in any manner insured by, entitled to any benefits or coverage under or entitled to seek benefits or coverage from or under any insurance policies of GE (“GE insurance policies”) other than (i) any insurance policy issued exclusively in the name and for the benefit of SpinCo or any Transferred Subsidiary, (ii) with respect to any matters covered by an insurance policy that have been properly reported to the relevant insurer(s) prior to the Distribution Date, or (iii) for claims brought solely under certain insurance policies listed on a schedule to the Separation Agreement, for any claim, occurrence, injury, damage or loss that occurred or existed prior to the Distribution Date, in each case under clauses (i) through (iii) above subject to the terms and conditions of the relevant insurance policies and the Separation Agreement, except to the extent otherwise mandated by applicable law.

In addition, SpinCo and the Transferred Subsidiaries agreed to procure all contractual and statutorily obligated insurance at the Distribution Effective Time. In addition, the rights of SpinCo and the Transferred Subsidiaries under subparagraphs (ii) and (iii) of the preceding paragraph are subject to and conditioned upon the following:

| • | SpinCo and the Transferred Subsidiaries (A) will be solely responsible for notifying any and all insurance companies of such claims and complying with all policy terms and conditions for pursuit and collection of such claims; (B) will not, without the written consent of GE, amend, modify or waive any rights of GE or other insureds under any such insurance policies and programs; and (C) will exclusively bear and be liable (and the GE will have no obligation to repay or reimburse SpinCo or any Transferred Subsidiary) for all uninsured, uncovered, unavailable or uncollectible amounts relating to or associated with all such claims.

| • | With respect to coverage claims or requests for benefits asserted by SpinCo and the Transferred Subsidiaries under the insurance policies listed on a schedule to the Separation Agreement as described in subclause (iii) above, GE will have the right but not the duty to monitor and/or associate with such claims its sole cost and expense. SpinCo and the Transferred Subsidiaries will be liable for any fees, costs and expenses reasonably incurred by GE directly or indirectly through the insurers or reinsurers of the under the insurance policies listed on a schedule to the Separation Agreement as described in subclause (iii) above relating to any unsuccessful coverage claims pursued at SpinCo’s written request. SpinCo and the Transferred Subsidiaries will not assign any under the insurance policies listed on a schedule to the Separation Agreement as described in subclause (iii) of the first paragraph of this section or any rights or claims under such policies.

Notwithstanding anything contained in the Separation Agreement:

| • | nothing in the Separation Agreement will limit, waive or abrogate in any manner any rights of GE to insurance coverage for any matter, whether relating to SpinCo or any Transferred Subsidiary or otherwise; and

| • | GE will retain the exclusive right to control the GE insurance policies, including the right to exhaust, settle, release, commute, buy-back or otherwise resolve disputes with respect to any GE insurance policies and to amend, modify or waive any rights under any such GE insurance policies, notwithstanding whether any such GE insurance policies apply to any liabilities or losses as to which SpinCo or any Transferred Subsidiary has made, or could in the future make, a claim for coverage;

120

TABLE OF CONTENTS

provided, that SpinCo and the Transferred Subsidiaries will cooperate with GE with respect to coverage claims and requests for benefits and sharing such information as is reasonably necessary in order to permit GE to manage and conduct its insurance matters as it deems appropriate.

The foregoing provisions will not limit, modify or in any way affect the rights and obligations of the parties under the indemnification provisions described above under “—Mutual Release; Indemnification;” provided, however, that any Insurance Proceeds actually collected with respect to a particular indemnifiable loss will be taken into account under and to the extent required by the indemnification provisions of the Separation Agreement. No payments due with respect to the above will be affected by, or be subject to set off against, any payments due pursuant to the cash and indebtedness adjustment provisions of the Separation Agreement discussed above under “—Separation of GE Transportation—Cash, Debt and Receivables Adjustment.” Whenever the insurance provisions of the Separation Agreement, as summarized in this section, require SpinCo or any Transferred Subsidiary to take any action after the closing of the Transactions, such requirement will be deemed to constitute an undertaking on the part of Wabtec to take such action or to cause SpinCo or such Transferred Subsidiary, as applicable, to take such action.

Termination

The Separation Agreement will terminate without further action at any time before the Distribution Effective Time upon termination of the Merger Agreement. If the Separation Agreement is so terminated, no party will have any liability of any kind to any other party or any other person on account of the Separation Agreement, except as provided in the Merger Agreement.

Assignment

The Separation Agreement and the rights and obligations under the Separation Agreement may not be assigned or delegated in whole or in part by any party by operation of law or otherwise without the express written consent of Wabtec, in the case of an attempted assignment or delegation by GE, or GE, in the case of an attempted assignment or delegation by Wabtec, Direct Sale Purchaser or SpinCo, except that Direct Sale Purchaser may assign or delegate any of its rights or obligations pursuant to this Agreement, in whole or in part, to one or more wholly owned subsidiaries of Wabtec (other than Merger Sub or any of its subsidiaries) without the prior consent of GE; provided that such assignment or delegation will not relieve Direct Sale Purchaser of its obligations under the Separation Agreement. Any attempted assignment that is not in accordance with this paragraph will be null and void.

Amendment and Waiver

Except as otherwise provided in the Separation Agreement with respect to the Internal Reorganization or amendments to the step plan for the Internal Reorganization provided by GE to Wabtec prior to the date of the Separation Agreement, no provision of the Separation Agreement may be amended or waived except by an instrument in writing signed by, in the case of an amendment, all of the parties to the Merger Agreement, or, in the case of a waiver, by the party or parties against whom the waiver is to be effective. For any amendments or waivers to the sections of the Separation Agreement relating to amendments and waivers, third-party beneficiaries, governing law, jurisdiction, waiver of jury trial and non-recourse to certain non-parties to the Merger Agreement that, in each case, adversely affect any of Wabtec’s financing sources, the prior written consent of the affected financing sources will be required before such amendment or waiver is effective.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

OTHER AGREEMENTS

Wabtec, GE, SpinCo and Merger Sub and certain of their respective subsidiaries and stockholders, directors and officers, in each case as applicable, have entered into or, before the consummation of the Transactions, will enter into, certain other agreements relating to the Transactions and various interim and ongoing relationships among GE, SpinCo and Wabtec. The material terms of these agreements are summarized below.

Voting Agreement

In connection with the signing of the Merger Agreement, certain stockholders, directors and officers of Wabtec beneficially owning approximately 10.9% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec entered into the Voting Agreement with GE which will remain in effect until the earliest of (i) the date on which the applicable approval of the Share Issuance and the Wabtec Charter Amendment is obtained from Wabtec stockholders, (ii) the date on which the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, and (iii) one year after GE or Wabtec sends a notice of termination of the Merger Agreement that is not withdrawn prior to the end of such one-year period. This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Voting Agreement, which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus-information statement. See “Where You Can Find More Information; Incorporation By Reference.”

With respect to each stockholder party to the Voting Agreement, the Wabtec common stock covered by the Voting Agreement (“covered shares”) includes their existing shares (subject to certain permitted transfers), together with any shares of Wabtec common stock or other capital stock of Wabtec and any shares of Wabtec common stock or other capital stock of Wabtec issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange of securities that are as of the relevant date securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Wabtec common stock or other capital stock of Wabtec, in each case that such specified stockholder has or acquires beneficial ownership of on or after May 20, 2018.

Each stockholder party to the Voting Agreement agreed that until expiration of the Voting Agreement, at any meeting of Wabtec stockholders, such stockholder will:

| • | appear or otherwise cause their covered shares to be counted as present for purposes of calculating a quorum; and

| • | vote (or cause to be voted), in person or by proxy, all of their covered shares:

| ○ | in favor of the Share Issuance, the Wabtec Charter Amendment and any related action reasonably requested by GE;

| ○ | against any action or agreement that would result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of Wabtec in the Merger Agreement or of such stockholder in the Voting Agreement; and

| ○ | against any Acquisition Proposal or Superior Proposal and against any other action, agreement or transaction involving Wabtec or its subsidiaries that would reasonably be expected to materially impede, interfere with, delay, postpone, adversely affect or otherwise materially adversely affect or prevent the consummation of the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or the performance by Wabtec of its obligations under the Merger Agreement or by such stockholder of its obligations under the Voting Agreement.

Additionally, each applicable stockholder agreed (i) not to commence or participate in and (ii) to take all actions necessary to opt out of any claim against Wabtec, Merger Sub, GE, SpinCo or any of their respective affiliates relating to the Voting Agreement or the Merger Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby. Furthermore, each applicable stockholder agreed not to, at any time prior to expiration of the Voting Agreement (a) enter into any voting agreement or voting trust with respect to their covered shares, (b) grant a proxy, consent or power of attorney with respect to their covered shares, or (c) knowingly take any action that would make any representation or warranty of such stockholder untrue or incorrect or have the effect of preventing such stockholder from performing any of its obligations under the Voting Agreement.

Until the expiration of the Voting Agreement, each applicable stockholder agreed not to:

| • | enter into agreement or take any action that violates or conflicts with (or would reasonably be expected to do the same) such stockholder’s representations, warranties, covenants and obligations under the Voting Agreement, or

122

TABLE OF CONTENTS

| • | take any action that could restrict or otherwise affect such stockholder’s legal power, authority and right to comply with and perform its covenants and obligations under the Voting Agreement.

Additionally, until expiration of the Voting Agreement, each applicable stockholder agreed not to request registration of the transfer of any of its covered shares or any certificate in respect thereof.

Until expiration of the Voting Agreement, subject to certain exceptions, each applicable stockholder is prohibited from transferring any of such stockholder’s covered shares, beneficial ownership thereof or any other interest therein.

Nothing in the Voting Agreement limits or restricts a stockholder in his or her capacity as a director or officer of Wabtec from acting or voting in such capacity in such person’s sole discretion or exercising such stockholder’s fiduciary duties. No party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under the Voting Agreement without the consent of the other parties.

The Voting Agreement terminated on November 14, 2018 following the approval of the Share Issuance and the Wabtec Charter Amendment by Wabtec stockholders.

Shareholders Agreement

In connection with the closing of the Transactions, Wabtec and GE will enter into a Shareholders Agreement governing the rights and obligations of Wabtec, GE and certain of GE’s affiliates with respect to the shares of Wabtec common stock to be retained by GE following the completion of the Merger. The Shareholders Agreement sets out, among other things, standstill restrictions, a voting agreement, transfer restrictions and registration rights and procedures as further described below. This summary is qualified by reference to (i) the full text of the form of Shareholders Agreement, which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus-information statement, and (ii) the terms and conditions of the final Shareholders Agreement. See “Where You Can Find More Information; Incorporation By Reference.”

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, GE will become the beneficial owner of a number of shares of Wabtec common stock in an amount equal to approximately 9.9% of Wabtec’s outstanding common stock (the “Initial Shares”). The Initial Shares and any equity securities of Wabtec issued or issuable directly or indirectly to GE with respect to or on account of the Initial Shares (“subject shares”) are subject to the terms of the Shareholders Agreement.

Pursuant to the Shareholders Agreement, from the closing date of the Merger until the earlier of (i) the later of the 24-month anniversary of the closing date of the Merger and the 3-month anniversary of the date that GE and any of its permitted transferees that hold subject shares (“Stockholder Parties”) first cease to beneficially own any subject shares and (ii) a change of control of Wabtec (as defined below), the Stockholder Parties will not, and will cause all of their respective subsidiaries and controlled affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, unless approved by a majority of the Wabtec Board:

| • | acquire (or offer or agree to do the same) beneficial ownership of Wabtec common stock or any other security of Wabtec other than equity securities of Wabtec issued or issuable directly or indirectly with respect to or on account of the Initial Shares;

| • | make any statement or proposal to Wabtec or its stockholders regarding, or make any public announcement, proposal or offer or otherwise solicit or effect (whether directly or indirectly, publicly or otherwise):

| ○ | any business combination, merger, tender offer, exchange offer or similar transaction involving Wabtec or any of its subsidiaries that may reasonably be expected to result in a change of control;

| ○ | any restructuring, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution or similar transaction involving Wabtec or any of its subsidiaries, including any material divestiture, break-up or spinoff;

| ○ | any acquisition of any equity securities of Wabtec or any of its subsidiaries or rights or options to acquire the same; or

| ○ | the composition of or election of any individual to the Wabtec Board;

| • | enter into any discussions, negotiations, arrangements or understandings with respect to the foregoing, or form, join or participate in a “group” with respect to Wabtec common stock in connection with any of the forgoing;

123

TABLE OF CONTENTS

| • | request, call or seek to call a meeting of Wabtec stockholders, nominate any individual for election to the Wabtec Board at any meeting of stockholders, submit any stockholder proposal to seek representation on the Wabtec Board or any other proposal to be considered by Wabtec stockholders, or recommend that any other Wabtec stockholders vote in favor of, or otherwise publicly comment favorably or unfavorably about, or solicit votes or proxies for, any such nomination or proposal submitted by another stockholder, or otherwise publicly seek to control or influence the Wabtec Board, management or policies of Wabtec;

| • | deposit any subject shares or any other Wabtec common stock in a voting trust or similar arrangement or subject such shares to any voting agreement, pooling arrangement or similar arrangement; or

| • | take any action which would reasonably be expected to require Wabtec to make a public announcement regarding any of the foregoing.

The foregoing limitations will not (i) preclude confidential proposals made by a Stockholder Party to the Wabtec Board or (ii) limit the activities of any person appointed to the Wabtec Board pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement taken in his or her capacity as a director of Wabtec.

For purposes of the Shareholders Agreement, a “change of control” of Wabtec includes an event(s) by which (i) any “person” or “group” directly or indirectly becomes the beneficial owner of 50% or more of outstanding Wabtec common stock, (ii) all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of Wabtec are sold, (iii) Wabtec is consolidated, merged, amalgamated, reorganized or otherwise enters into a similar transaction in which it is combined with another person, unless the persons who beneficially own the outstanding Wabtec common stock immediately before such transaction beneficially own a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the combined, resulting or surviving entity (or its parent) immediately thereafter, (iv) Wabtec stockholders approve of any plan or proposal for liquidation or dissolution, or (v) a majority of the Wabtec Board no longer consists of directors who were (i) a member of the Wabtec Board as of the date of the Shareholders Agreement, (ii) appointed to the Wabtec Board pursuant to the Merger Agreement or (iii) nominated or elected to the Wabtec Board with the approval of a majority of the then-existing Wabtec Board.

For as long as the Stockholder Parties hold subject shares, each Stockholder Party must vote all its subject shares in the same proportion as the votes cast by all Wabtec common stock not beneficially owned by the Stockholder Parties on such matter. So long as the Stockholder Parties, in the aggregate, hold at least 5% of the then-outstanding Wabtec common stock, Wabtec must meet with such Stockholder Parties’ representatives at such times as they may reasonably request.

Subject to certain exceptions, for a period of 90 days following the closing date of the Merger, the Stockholder Parties will not, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of any subject shares or any securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for subject shares, or publicly announce an intention to effect any such transaction. After such 90-day period, subject to certain exceptions, the subject shares will not be subject to transfer restrictions under the Shareholders Agreement except that the Stockholder Parties will be prohibited from transferring more than 1% of the outstanding Wabtec common stock to any person if such Stockholder Party actually knows (after reasonable inquiry) that the transferee holds 2% or more of outstanding Wabtec common stock prior to such transfer.

Pursuant to the Shareholders Agreement and subject to limited extensions, by no later than the third anniversary of the closing date of the Merger, the Stockholder Parties must sell all of the subject shares that they beneficially own.

The Shareholders Agreement will terminate with respect to each Stockholder Party at the time such Stockholder Party ceases to beneficially own any subject shares or, if earlier, upon the written agreement of Wabtec and such Stockholder Party.

Employee Matters Agreement

In connection with the Transactions, GE, SpinCo, Wabtec and Direct Sale Purchaser have agreed to enter into an Employee Matters Agreement with respect to the transfer of employees engaged in GE Transportation and related matters, including terms of employment, benefit plans and coverage and other compensation and labor matters. This summary is qualified by reference to (i) the full text of the form of Employee Matters Agreement, which is

124

TABLE OF CONTENTS

incorporated by reference into this prospectus-information statement, and (ii) the terms and conditions of the final Employee Matters Agreement, which will be entered into in connection with the completion of the Transactions. See “Where You Can Find More Information; Incorporation By Reference.”

Offers of Employment and Continuing Employment

As of the closing date of the Merger, SpinCo will, or will cause one of its subsidiaries to, and Direct Sale Purchaser will cause a Direct Sale Transferred Subsidiary to, continue to employ each employee of SpinCo (or one of its subsidiaries) or a Direct Sale Transferred Subsidiary, as applicable (including accepting the employment of individuals whose employment automatically transfers to SpinCo, Direct Sale Purchaser or one of their respective subsidiaries as a result of certain transfer regulations), following the Distribution Date. In addition, Direct Sale Purchaser will, or will cause one of its subsidiaries to, offer employment to each other employee of GE or its affiliates who provides at least 80% of his or her business services in support of GE Transportation with such employment commencing on the closing date of the Merger (each, an “Offer Employee”). For Offer Employees who are inactive as of immediately prior to the Distribution, Direct Sale Purchaser will, or will cause one of its subsidiaries to, offer employment to each such inactive employee, provided that such inactive employee is able to commence, and actually commences, active employment with Direct Sale Purchaser (or one of its subsidiaries) no later than 12 months following the Distribution Date (or such longer period as required by applicable law). Each individual who continues or commences employment with Wabtec, SpinCo, Merger Sub or Direct Sale Purchaser in accordance with this paragraph is referred to herein as a “Continuing Employee.”

Terms and Conditions of Employment

For a period of 12 months following the closing date of the Merger, except where superseded by the terms of any collective bargaining agreement entered into on or after the closing date of the Merger, Wabtec and its subsidiaries (including SpinCo, Direct Sale Purchaser and any Direct Sale Transferred Subsidiary), or any of their respective affiliates, will provide to each Continuing Employee (i) at least the same salary or wages, same cash incentive compensation opportunities and same cash bonus opportunities as were provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Distribution, (ii) employee benefits having a comparable aggregate employer-provided value (including the value of tax qualified and non-tax qualified defined benefit plans and retiree health benefits) to those provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Distribution (excluding stock options and other equity awards, except as otherwise required by applicable law), and (iii) to the extent required by applicable law or a pension plan or bonus plan assumed by Wabtec or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates in connection with the Transactions, other material terms and conditions of employment as were provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Distribution.

In addition, Wabtec and its subsidiaries and affiliates will be required to (a) honor all obligations of GE and its affiliates to the Continuing Employees under any cash incentive or bonus program covering such employees as of immediately prior to the Distribution, (b) pay the Continuing Employees cash incentives or bonuses for the entire applicable performance measurement period which includes the Distribution in accordance with such programs, and (c) except where superseded by the terms of any collective bargaining agreement entered into on or after the closing date of the Merger, (x) provide vacation benefits to Continuing Employees that are at least as favorable as those provided by GE and its affiliates to such Continuing Employees immediately prior to the Distribution, (y) honor all obligations of GE, SpinCo and their respective affiliates for the accrued, unused vacation and paid time off of such Continuing Employees as of immediately prior to the Distribution, and (z) provide severance benefits to Continuing Employees who are laid off or terminated during the 12-month period following the closing date of the Merger with the same severance benefits that would have applied to the Continuing Employees under a severance or layoff plan of GE or its affiliates immediately prior to the closing date of the Merger (or, if higher, the severance benefits provided under the severance arrangements of Wabtec or one of its subsidiaries or affiliates applicable to similarly-situated employees) and to consider such employees for a pro rata bonus under the terms of a bonus plan of Wabtec, SpinCo or their respective affiliates for the year of termination.

Benefit Plan Assumption

Wabtec and its subsidiaries will assume certain (i) cash-based incentive programs covering the Continuing Employees, (ii) defined benefit pension and termination indemnity plans maintained outside of the United States

125

TABLE OF CONTENTS

(with reimbursement or indemnification by GE for certain underfunding with respect thereto), (iii) certain offer letters and employment contracts, and (iv) retention bonus agreements (provided that GE will reimburse Wabtec for any payments under such retention bonus agreements required to be paid by Wabtec that exceed $32,500,000 in the aggregate).

In addition, the parties will effect a transfer of Continuing Employees’ accounts from any health or dependent care flexible spending account plan maintained by GE or its affiliates to the corresponding flexible spending account plans maintained by Wabtec or its subsidiaries.

Allocation of Liabilities

Wabtec and its subsidiaries will generally assume all liabilities relating to the Continuing Employees, as well as all pre-closing liabilities relating to employees of GE who are offered employment with Wabtec and its subsidiaries but who decline such offers of employment and all former employees who, immediately prior to their termination of employment, were employed by SpinCo or one of its subsidiaries or were providing at least 80% of their business services in support of GE Transportation. However, GE and its affiliates will retain all liabilities relating to the current collective bargaining agreements covering Continuing Employees who are based in the U.S. and any employee benefit plans, programs and arrangements that do not transfer to Wabtec or its subsidiaries in connection with the Transactions.

Wabtec and its subsidiaries will reimburse GE and its affiliates for any payments made with respect to claims incurred prior to the closing date of the Merger, by Continuing Employees who are based in the U.S. and their eligible spouses, dependents or qualified beneficiaries under any GE-sponsored benefit plans providing health, disability, worker’s compensation, life insurance or similar benefits.

U.S. Labor Matters

Wabtec (including Direct Sale Purchaser and any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates) will not assume any collective bargaining agreement between GE, or an affiliate of GE, and any labor organization representing any employees working for GE Transportation and employed in the United States (a “U.S. CBA”). If Wabtec or Direct Sale Purchaser is deemed to be a successor employer under the National Labor Relations Act, Wabtec will, or will cause Direct Sale Purchaser to, recognize and, if requested to, bargain in good faith as a successor employer with any labor organization that has been certified or recognized as the exclusive collective bargaining representative of any Continuing Employees who are Offer Employees.

SpinCo or a Direct Sale Transferred Subsidiary will assume each collective bargaining, works agreement or other agreement entered into between GE, or an affiliate of GE, and any labor union, works council or other labor organization representing any Continuing Employee employed outside of the United States (“Non-U.S. CBAs”), that covers any Continuing Employee employed outside of the United States, otherwise requires assumption by applicable law, or expressly states that such agreement applies to successors. With respect to each Non-U.S. CBA, GE and its affiliates must comply with certain obligations including (i) providing notice of the Distribution and Merger to each labor organization representing employees covered by Non-U.S. CBAs, if required under applicable law; (ii) ensuring that SpinCo or a Direct Sale Transferred Subsidiary recognizes and bargains in good faith with the applicable representative bodies in connection with the Transactions; (iii) complying with any consultation obligations in accordance with applicable law; and (iv) taking no actions in violation of applicable law pertaining to the protection of employee rights in the event of the transfer of undertakings. Wabtec and GE have agreed to cooperate in good faith to ensure that GE meets the foregoing obligations relating to each Non-U.S. CBA.

Prior to the effective time of the Merger, GE or one of its affiliates will comply with any notice and/or collective bargaining obligations under applicable law with respect to the Transactions, including advance notice to Wabtec of any material modifications to any U.S. CBA or Non-U.S. CBA; provided that, prior to the effective time of the Merger, GE retains the sole authority to agree to or implement any modifications.

Wabtec agrees to indemnify GE for any monetary losses suffered by GE or any of its affiliates as a result of pending or future claims asserted under any U.S. CBAs, with the exception of any claims asserted by Offer Employees (or labor organizations representing Offer Employees) pertaining to modification, termination or denial of any employee benefits that are not expressly allocated to SpinCo or a Direct Sale Transferred Subsidiary.

126

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Non-U.S. Continuing Employees

Other than with respect to the collective bargaining agreements described above, the Employee Matters Agreement generally provides that SpinCo and Direct Sale Purchaser will, or will cause one of their respective affiliates to, in addition to meeting the requirements of the Employee Matters Agreement, comply with any additional obligations or standards required by applicable law governing the terms and conditions of employment of Continuing Employees based outside of the United States in connection with the Distribution. In addition, Wabtec will indemnify GE for certain severance or termination indemnities and related liabilities incurred by GE or its affiliates as a result of changes made after the Merger to any benefit plan or other employment terms and conditions for Continuing Employees who are resident outside of the U.S.

Non-Solicitation

GE and its subsidiaries will not, for the 12-month period following the closing date of the Merger, directly or indirectly solicit, induce or attempt to solicit or induce any Continuing Employee who was a member of GE’s executive band or higher immediately prior to the Distribution to leave the employ of Wabtec or its subsidiaries or affiliates. Wabtec and its subsidiaries will not, for the 12-month period following the closing date of the Merger, directly or indirectly induce or attempt to induce to leave the employ of GE or its affiliates any person who at the time occupies, or at any time during the preceding 12 months occupied, a position: (i) assigned to the executive band or higher and working on matters relating to SpinCo, Direct Sale Transferred Subsidiary, the Merger or the Distribution or any subsidiary transferred pursuant to the Direct Sale, or (ii) in connection with the provision of services to Wabtec and its subsidiaries and affiliates pursuant to a transition services agreement.

Tax Matters Agreement

In connection with the Transactions, GE, SpinCo, Wabtec and Direct Sale Purchaser will enter into the Tax Matters Agreement that will govern the respective rights, responsibilities, and obligations of GE, Wabtec, SpinCo and their respective subsidiaries after the Distribution, the Merger and the Direct Sale with respect to tax liabilities and benefits, tax attributes, tax returns, tax contests and other tax matters. This summary is qualified by reference to (i) the full text of the form of Tax Matters Agreement, which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus-information statement, and (ii) the terms and conditions of the final Tax Matters Agreement. See “Where You Can Find More Information; Incorporation By Reference.”

In general, the Tax Matters Agreement will govern the rights and obligations of GE, on the one hand, and SpinCo and Wabtec, on the other hand, after the Distribution with respect to taxes for tax periods (or portions thereof) ending on, before or after the Distribution Date. Subject to certain exceptions, under the Tax Matters Agreement:

| • | GE generally will be responsible for (i) taxes of SpinCo and its subsidiaries, and taxes imposed on or in respect of the assets sold and the liabilities assumed pursuant to the Direct Sale, in each case, for tax periods (or portions thereof) ending on or before the Distribution Date, (ii) taxes arising with respect to the failure of the Distribution to qualify as a tax-free distribution to the GE stockholders pursuant to Section 355(a) of the Code or the failure of any of certain aspects of the Internal Reorganization to qualify for their intended tax-free treatment (except in certain cases where such tax liability arises (x) as a result of actions or failures to act, or breaches of the Tax Matters Agreement, by Wabtec, SpinCo or their subsidiaries, or (y) with respect to the assets of Wabtec, SpinCo or their subsidiaries, that affect, in each case, the intended tax treatment of the Distribution or Internal Reorganization), (iii) 100% of applicable transfer taxes relating to the Internal Reorganization and the SpinCo Transfer and 50% of other applicable transfer taxes, and (iv) taxes (other than transfer taxes) arising from the application of Section 355(e) of the Code to the Distribution and the making of elections under Section 336(e) of the Code with respect to the Distribution; and

| • | Wabtec and SpinCo generally will be responsible for (i) taxes of SpinCo and its subsidiaries, and taxes imposed on or in respect of the assets sold and the liabilities assumed pursuant to the Direct Sale, in each case, for tax periods (or portions thereof) ending after the Distribution Date, (ii) taxes arising (x) as a result of actions or failures to act, or breaches of the Tax Matters Agreement, by Wabtec, SpinCo or their subsidiaries, or (y) with respect to the assets of Wabtec, SpinCo or their subsidiaries, and affecting, in each case, the intended tax treatment of the Distribution or the Internal Reorganization, and (iii) 50% of applicable transfer taxes (except for transfer taxes relating to the Internal Reorganization and the SpinCo Transfer).

127

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Where the Tax Matters Agreement requires a party to pay an amount in respect of another person’s taxes, such party also is generally required to pay related costs and expenses.

In addition, the Tax Matters Agreement generally will prohibit SpinCo, Wabtec, and their subsidiaries from taking certain actions that could affect the intended tax treatment of the SpinCo Transfer, the Distribution, the Merger, or the Internal Reorganization, including the Merger’s qualification as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and the Distribution’s qualification as a distribution that is tax-free to the GE stockholders pursuant to Section 355(a) of the Code. Among other things, subject to certain exceptions, for a two-year period following the Distribution Date, SpinCo, Wabtec, and their subsidiaries may not:

| • | cause or permit the cessation of the active conduct of certain of SpinCo’s businesses, dispose of interests in any entity conducting such businesses, or change the U.S. tax classification of any such entity;

| • | redeem or repurchase any stock or stock rights of Wabtec, other than in certain open-market transactions; or

| • | merge, consolidate or amalgamate with any other person (other than pursuant to the Merger or mergers, consolidations or amalgamations in which SpinCo or Wabtec, as relevant, is the surviving party).

Subject to certain exceptions, the Tax Matters Agreement will also generally prohibit SpinCo, Wabtec, and their subsidiaries from taking any other action that would affect the intended tax treatment of the SpinCo Transfer, the Distribution, the Merger, or the Internal Reorganization or would increase the tax liability of GE or its affiliates with respect to tax periods (or portions thereof) ending on or before the Distribution Date. If SpinCo, Wabtec or any of their affiliates intends to take any of the restricted actions described in the Tax Matters Agreement, including the actions described above, Wabtec will be required to obtain an IRS ruling or an unqualified tax opinion reasonably satisfactory to GE to the effect that such action will not affect the intended tax treatment of the SpinCo Transfer, the Distribution, the Merger, or the Internal Reorganization (and GE will be required to cooperate in good faith in connection with Wabtec’s efforts to obtain such IRS ruling or unqualified opinion). However, if SpinCo, Wabtec, or any of their affiliates takes any of the restricted actions described in the Tax Matters Agreement, including the actions described above, and such action results in tax-related losses to GE, then Wabtec may be required under the Tax Matters Agreement to indemnify GE for such losses, without regard to whether Wabtec has obtained such an IRS ruling or unqualified opinion.

GE and Wabtec intend that the Distribution will be tax-free to the GE stockholders pursuant to Section 355(a) of the Code but that the Distribution and/or certain related transactions will be taxable to GE. The Tax Matters Agreement (including portions thereof incorporated in the Merger Agreement) require or will require GE to take certain actions in support of this intended tax treatment, including selling certain stock of Wabtec received in the Merger in one or more public offerings meeting certain conditions within two years of the Distribution Date.

GE and Wabtec also intend that the Transactions will generally provide SpinCo, Direct Sale Purchaser and their respective domestic subsidiaries with increased tax bases in their assets equal, in most cases, to their fair market values as of the Distribution Date. These increased tax bases are expected to result in future reductions in Wabtec’s tax liability that would not be realized by Wabtec if GE and Wabtec were to engage in a wholly tax-free transaction. The Tax Matters Agreement will require Wabtec to pay certain amounts, capped at a specified total, to GE as and when Wabtec realizes actual cash tax savings on account of such reductions in its tax liability. Wabtec’s obligation to pay such amounts may be accelerated or increased upon the occurrence of certain specified events, including late payments by Wabtec, breaches by Wabtec of its obligations under the Tax Matters Agreement, or the occurrence of an insolvency, a bankruptcy or a similar proceeding, a default under a material lending arrangement, or a related event, in each case, with respect to Wabtec or its affiliates. GE will be required to repay certain amounts received under the Tax Matters Agreement on account of tax benefits of Wabtec that are later disallowed.

The Tax Matters Agreement will be binding on and inure to the benefit of any successor to any of the parties of the Tax Matters Agreement to the same extent as if such successor had been an original party to the Tax Matters Agreement.

IP Cross License Agreement

Prior to the Distribution Effective Time, GE and SpinCo will enter into the IP Cross License Agreement, pursuant to which (i) GE will license to SpinCo certain intellectual property, software, technology, data and GE

Pursuant to the IP Cross License Agreement, GE will grant to SpinCo the following rights and licenses (subject to the terms and conditions of any third party agreement pursuant to which applicable intellectual property, software, technology or data has been licensed to GE) along with certain covenants not to sue with respect to such rights and licenses:

| • | GE will grant to SpinCo and its subsidiaries a non-exclusive, irrevocable, royalty-free, fully paid-up, worldwide, non-sublicensable and non-transferable (except as described below), perpetual right and license to use certain specified GE software solely as used (or contemplated to be used) by GE Transportation as of the date of the IP Cross License Agreement. The IP Cross License Agreement also prohibits marketing or reselling any element of such GE software;

| • | GE will grant to SpinCo and its subsidiaries a non-exclusive, irrevocable, royalty-free, fully paid-up, worldwide, non-sublicensable and non-transferable (except as described below), perpetual right and license allowing SpinCo to use certain specified GE materials and create and develop improvements thereto; and

| • | The licenses permit sublicensing to (i) an acquirer of all or substantially all of the assets of SpinCo and its subsidiaries to which the IP Cross License Agreement relates or (ii) customers or end-users in connection with products or services provided in substantially the same manner that such sublicenses were granted as of the Distribution Date.

Grants from SpinCo to GE and its Affiliates

Pursuant to the IP Cross License Agreement, SpinCo will grant to GE the following rights and licenses (subject to the terms and conditions of any third party agreement pursuant to which the applicable intellectual property, software, technology or data has been licensed to SpinCo) along with certain covenants not to sue with respect to such rights and licenses:

| • | The licenses permit sublicensing to an acquirer of any of the businesses, a line of business, or all or substantially all of the operations or assets of GE or such affiliates to which the IP Cross License Agreement relates.

Under the IP Cross License Agreement, each party will retain the sole right, but not the obligation, to protect the intellectual property, software, technology and data owned by such party.

The IP Cross License Agreement will place restrictions on SpinCo’s use of the Jenbacher Type 6 Engine Platform and the intellectual property rights therein and on GE’s use of the Powerhaul P616/P612 and the intellectual property rights therein. Additionally, pursuant to the IP Cross License Agreement, GE will agree not to assert certain claims it may have against SpinCo arising solely out of SpinCo’s internal use of Six Sigma and

129

TABLE OF CONTENTS

LEAN software, documentation and materials owned by GE or any of its affiliates relating to the Six Sigma program. GE will also have certain obligations to assist SpinCo in its efforts to obtain non-exclusive licenses related to the Six Sigma program.

The IP Cross License Agreement is not assignable, in whole or in part, by SpinCo without the prior written consent of GE; except SpinCo may assign the IP Cross License Agreement (i) in whole but not in part, to an affiliate in connection with a corporate reorganization or (ii) in whole or in part to a subsidiary. GE is permitted, without the consent of SpinCo, to assign the IP Cross License Agreement or any of its rights and obligations thereunder to an affiliate that expressly assumes all of its obligations.

Trademark License Agreement

In connection with the Transactions, GE and SpinCo will enter into the Trademark License Agreement, effective as of the Distribution Date, pursuant to which GE will grant to SpinCo a license to use certain of the GE Names and Marks. Unless terminated or extended, the Trademark License Agreement will expire five years after the Distribution Date, but may be renewed by SpinCo, upon written notice to GE, for one additional five year period.

Additionally, use of the licensed GE Names and Marks pursuant to the foregoing license must be in strict accordance with certain of GE’s quality, safety, usage and other guidelines as well as other restrictions, covenants and approval rights granted to GE in the Trademark License Agreement.

Sublicensing of the rights and licenses will only be permitted when to one of SpinCo’s direct or indirect subsidiaries engaged in the GE Transportation business as of the Distribution Date and which has executed an agreement to be bound by all obligations of SpinCo under the Trademark License Agreement.

respect to any such registrations. GE retains the sole and exclusive right to determine whether or not action will be taken due to or against third party infringements or to otherwise terminate such infringements.

Should GE’s trademark counsel render a legal opinion that concludes that use of the licensed GE Names and Marks becomes threatened as a result of a claim by a third party or applicable law or rule, regulation or policy of a governmental authority, then the licensee group must use its reasonable best efforts to cease use of the licensed GE Names and Marks upon notice from GE. In addition, in the event of any such opinion, GE’s and SpinCo’s respective trademark counsel will negotiate in good faith an amendment that modifies the Trademark License Agreement to the extent reasonably necessary to address the legal issue arising out of such third party claim or applicable law or rule, regulation or policy.

Except for liability for indemnification, GE’s total liability under or related to the Trademark License Agreement is limited to $1,000.

Pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement, GE will provide SpinCo and its subsidiaries with certain services, including information technology, supply chain, financial, human resources and other specified services, as well as access to certain of GE’s existing facilities. In addition, SpinCo will provide GE with certain limited post-Distribution services and facility access. The full scope of the transition services to be provided under the Transition Services Agreement will continue to be refined and supplemented by GE and SpinCo prior to the date of the Distribution.

The services provided by GE to SpinCo and by SpinCo to GE are generally planned to extend for an initial term of 18 to 24 months. In most cases, a recipient of a given service under the Transition Services Agreement can terminate the service prior to the applicable expiration date upon advanced notice given to the service provider (which, depending on the service, can be up to six months’ prior notice), provided the recipient pays the additional costs incurred by the provider in connection with the early wind-down of the service. Certain individual services may be extended at no additional premium upon 60 days’ prior written notice by the recipient and the provider will not unreasonably withhold its consent to any such extension requests, however, the total service period (including any extensions) with respect to any service may not extend more than 24 months following the Distribution Date.

Services are generally provided at a base monthly service fee per service and the provider is permitted to increase a given service fee in the event that the provider’s direct costs of providing such a service increases.

Additional Agreements

GE and SpinCo expect to enter into other commercial agreements or arrangements in connection with the separation of the operations of GE Transportation from GE, including, without limitation, agreements relating to certain research and development activities and co-location services.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

INFORMATION ON WABTEC

Overview

Westinghouse Air Brake Technologies Corporation, doing business as Wabtec Corporation, is a Delaware corporation with headquarters in Wilmerding, Pennsylvania. George Westinghouse founded the original Westinghouse Air Brake Co. in 1869 when he invented the air brake. Westinghouse Air Brake Company was formed in 1990 when it acquired certain assets and operations from American Standard, Inc., now known as Trane. The company went public on the New York Stock Exchange in 1995. In 1999, the company merged with MotivePower Industries, Inc. and adopted the name Wabtec. In 2017, Wabtec acquired Faiveley Transport, a leading provider of value-added, integrated systems and services, principally for the global transit rail market. Today, Wabtec is one of the largest providers of value-added, technology-based equipment, systems and services for the global passenger transit and freight rail industries. Through its subsidiaries, Wabtec manufactures a range of products for locomotives, freight cars and passenger transit vehicles. Wabtec also builds new switcher and commuter locomotives, and provides aftermarket services. Wabtec has roughly 18,000 employees and facilities located throughout the world.

Wabtec provides its products and services through two principal business segments, the Transit Segment and the Freight Segment, both of which have different market characteristics and business drivers. The acquisition of Faiveley Transport significantly strengthened Wabtec’s capabilities and presence in the worldwide transit market.

The Transit Segment primarily manufactures and services components for new and existing passenger transit vehicles, typically regional trains, high speed trains, subway cars, light-rail vehicles and buses; supplies rail control and infrastructure products including electronics, positive train control equipment, and signal design and engineering services; builds new commuter locomotives; and refurbishes passenger transit vehicles. Customers include public transit authorities and municipalities, leasing companies, and manufacturers of passenger transit vehicles and buses around the world. Demand in the transit market is primarily driven by general economic conditions, passenger ridership levels, government spending on public transportation, and investment in new rolling stock. The addition of Faiveley Transport’s key products strengthened Wabtec’s presence in the following areas: high-speed braking and door systems; heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems; pantographs and power collection; information systems; platform screen doors and gates; couplers; and aftermarket services, maintenance and spare parts. Geographically, Faiveley Transport significantly strengthened Wabtec’s presence in the European and Asia Pacific transit markets.

The Freight Segment primarily manufactures and services components for new and existing locomotives and freight cars; supplies rail control and infrastructure products including electronics, positive train control equipment, and signal design and engineering services; overhauls locomotives; and provides heat exchangers and cooling systems for rail and other industrial markets. Customers include large, publicly traded railroads, leasing companies, manufacturers of original equipment such as locomotives and freight cars, and utilities. Demand is primarily driven by general economic conditions and industrial activity; traffic volumes, as measured by freight carloadings; investment in new technologies; and deliveries of new locomotives and freight cars.

For a more detailed description of the business of Wabtec, see Wabtec’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus-information statement. See “Where You Can Find More Information; Incorporation by Reference.”

Wabtec’s Business After the Consummation of the Transactions

The combination of GE Transportation with Wabtec’s existing business is intended to add GE Transportation’s global digital solutions and supplier relationships in the rail, mining, marine, stationary power and drilling industries to Wabtec’s broad range of freight, transit and electronics solutions.

Wabtec expects the Transactions to have the following strategic benefits:

| • | Increased Scale and Diversification of Wabtec’s Product Portfolio with Focus on Transportation Industry. As a result of the Transactions, Wabtec expects the combined business to be one of the world’s largest providers of technology-enabled equipment, systems and services for the locomotive, freight and passenger rail industries with approximately $8.0 billion in revenue and 25,000 employees in 52 countries.

136

TABLE OF CONTENTS

| • | Complementary Digital Technologies. GE Transportation will contribute a comprehensive digital portfolio and leading engineering and technical intellectual property to Wabtec, providing electronics and digital technologies that position the combined company to meet growing demand for train intelligence and network optimization.

| • | Enhanced Aftermarket and Services Opportunities. The combined entity will have an installed base of over 22,500 locomotives and content on virtually all North American locomotives and freight cars, which enables significant opportunities in the high-margin aftermarket parts and services business and mitigates the combined company’s exposure to cycles.

| • | Significant Operating Synergies. The consummation of the Transactions is expected to generate $250.0 million total run-rate operating synergies, driven by cost and revenue opportunities, within four years after closing.

| • | Improved Financial Profile. The consummation of the Transactions will enhance Wabtec’s margins and revenue growth opportunities with strong free cash flow generation to enable strategic deleveraging. The combination is also expected to generate a net tax benefit of approximately $1.1 billion over the next 15 years.

Prior to the consummation of the Transactions, certain functions for GE Transportation have generally been performed under GE’s centralized systems and, in some cases, under contracts that are also used for GE’s other businesses which are not being sold in the Direct Sale or assigned to SpinCo as part of the Transactions. To enable Wabtec to manage an orderly transition in its operation of GE Transportation, GE or its subsidiaries and SpinCo or the SpinCo Transferred Subsidiaries will enter into the Additional Agreements relating to, among other things, intellectual property, employee matters, tax matters, research and development and transition services. See “Other Agreements—Additional Agreements.”

Wabtec’s Liquidity and Capital Resources After the Consummation of the Transactions

Wabtec had current assets of $2.27 billion, total assets of $6.58 billion, current liabilities of $1.57 billion and long-term debt of $1.82 billion as of December 31, 2017. Following the consummation of the Transactions, Wabtec’s total assets and liabilities will increase significantly.

On a pro forma basis (as described in “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements”), Wabtec would have had current assets of $4.06 billion, total assets of $21.53 billion, current liabilities of $3.03 billion and long-term debt of $4.70 billion as of December 31, 2017. Wabtec’s cash from operations was $188.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2017. Wabtec also expects its cash from operations to increase significantly as a result of the consummation of the Transactions and the integration of GE Transportation.

Wabtec believes that the combination of GE Transportation with Wabtec’s existing business will result in anticipated realization of $250.0 million total run-rate operating synergies, driven by cost and revenue opportunities, within four years after closing. If Wabtec is able to increase sales to new and existing customers and access new product and services markets as a result of the Transactions, Wabtec estimates that additional annualized synergies potentially may be achievable.

Wabtec expects to incur significant, one-time costs in connection with the Transactions, some of which will be capitalized, including approximately $35.0 million of financing-related fees, approximately $60.0 million of transaction-related costs (including advisory, legal, accounting and other professional fees) and approximately $88.0 million of transition and integration-related costs (a portion of which will be incremental capital spending), which Wabtec management believes to be necessary to realize the anticipated synergies from the Transactions. The incurrence of these costs may have a material adverse effect on Wabtec’s liquidity, cash flows and operating results in the periods in which they are incurred. The transition and integration-related costs will be incurred during the first three years following the consummation of the Transactions, and will primarily be funded through cash generated from operations. No assurances of the timing or amount of synergies able to be captured, or the costs necessary to achieve those synergies, can be provided.

Wabtec and the other Borrowers entered into the Credit Agreement on June 8, 2018, which includes (i) the $1.2 billion Revolving Credit Facility, which replaced Wabtec’s previous revolving credit facility, (ii) the $350.0 million Refinancing Term Loan, which refinanced Wabtec’s previous term loan, and (iii) the $400.0 million Delayed Draw Term Loan. Wabtec also obtained Bridge Commitments in respect of the Bridge

137

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Loan Facility in an amount not to exceed $2.5 billion. On September 14, 2018, in accordance with the Commitment Letter, the Bridge Commitments were permanently reduced to $0 in connection with Wabtec’s issuance of $500 million aggregate principal amount of the Floating Rate Notes, $750 million aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Notes and $1.25 billion aggregate principal amount of the 2028 Notes. Wabtec will use funds available under the Delayed Draw Term Loan and the proceeds from the issuance of the New Wabtec Notes to pay the Direct Sale Purchase Price. See “Debt Financing.”

Wabtec anticipates that its primary sources of liquidity for working capital and operating activities, including any future acquisitions, will be cash from operations and borrowings under the Credit Agreement, which is expected to have $812 million of unused availability immediately following the consummation of the Transactions. Wabtec expects that these sources of liquidity will be sufficient to make required payments of interest and principal on the outstanding Wabtec debt and to fund working capital and capital expenditure requirements, including the significant one-time costs relating to the Transactions described above, and the costs of future acquisitions. Wabtec expects that it will be able to comply with the financial and other covenants of its existing debt arrangements and the covenants under the agreements governing the Credit Agreement and the New Wabtec Notes.

For more information on GE Transportation’s and Wabtec’s existing sources of liquidity, see the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for GE Transportation” and the sections entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in Wabtec’s current report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on September 10, 2018, which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus-information statement. See “Where You Can Find More Information; Incorporation by Reference.”

GE Transportation’s Solutions

Equipment

GE Transportation’s Equipment segment is the largest global manufacturer of diesel-electric locomotives for freight railroads. GE Transportation produces mission-critical products and solutions that help railroads reduce operating costs, decrease fuel use, minimize downtime and comply with emissions standards. In addition to locomotives, GE Transportation also produces a range of engines, electric motors and premium propulsion systems used in mining, marine, stationary power and drilling applications.

Locomotives

GE Transportation believes it has the world’s most comprehensive, competitive and technically advanced diesel-electric locomotive portfolio with a global installed base of more than 22,500 locomotives in over 50 countries. GE Transportation also has numerous local partnerships in various jurisdictions which further support its product platform.

Customers choose diesel-electric locomotives based on many factors, including fuel efficiency, emissions compliance, reliability, tractive effort, price, total cost of ownership, aftermarket support and digital capabilities. GE Transportation believes customers are also trending towards signing multiyear equipment and service / parts agreements. For example, GE Transportation recently signed an agreement with Kazakhstan’s state-run railroad, Kazakhstan Temir Zholy (KTZ), to supply 300 shunter locomotives over the next ten years and agreements with Canadian National Railway (CN) for 200 new locomotives and Kansas City Southern for 50 locomotives.

GE Transportation’s current locomotive offerings include 24 different types of locomotives of varying features and capabilities such as axle weight, clearance and gross horsepower. GE Transportation believes the Evolution series, GE Transportation’s primary locomotive offering, is the most technologically advanced, diesel-electric, heavy-haul locomotive in the world today. GE Transportation introduced the base Evolution series in 2005 and has since substantively evolved the locomotive to meet EPA Tier 4 emission standards. GE Transportation now has over 870 Tier 4 locomotives in the field with over 100-million miles of experience.

GE Transportation’s sales, product management and engineering teams work together with its customers to optimize configurations for their requirements related to performance, reliability, lifecycle costs and other additions (e.g., Digital, signaling, etc.) that they may specifically require for their locomotive. However, GE Transportation strives to standardize its offerings as much as possible. For example, the engine family used in North America for the 33-tonnes/axle application is used in both Kazakhstan for the 23-tonnes/axle application and in South Africa for the 22-tonnes/axle application. Similarly, GE Transportation’s new control systems and traction motors have been standardized across a significant portion of GE Transportation’s portfolio.

New technologies will continue to evolve the diesel-electric space. GE Transportation continues to invest substantively and selectively in R&D to maintain its differentiation and market position. One key focus of GE Transportation’s investments is control systems, which GE Transportation believes enable and support remote monitoring, predictive maintenance and asset optimization as well as connectivity between fleets and operations. Additionally, GE Transportation’s investments are generally focused on new engine platforms, fuel efficiency, alternative fuel solutions and hybrid locomotives. Finally, GE Transportation believes GE Transportation’s

143

TABLE OF CONTENTS

additional investment focus on additive technologies is going to help make GE Transportation’s products lighter, more reliable and fuel efficient. GE Transportation believes its focus in these key investment areas will drive positive outcomes for its customers, primarily linked to operating ratio reduction and lifecycle cost savings, among others.

Mining, Marine and Stationary Power

Mining: GE Transportation has leveraged its core competencies in electric drives and propulsion to produce integrated, advanced propulsion systems used in off highway vehicle (OHV) mining applications. These solutions help enable mining customers to increase productivity, reduce maintenance costs and improve performance. GE Transportation’s key mining original equipment manufacturer customers include Komatsu, NHL and BelAZ, who serve the world’s largest mining end-customers such as Rio Tinto, Anglo American, Vale, BHP and others.

Marine: GE Transportation has adapted its locomotive engines for marine applications to produce fuel-efficient medium-speed diesel engines for fishing vessels, tugboats, ferries and offshore oil and gas support vessels. GE Transportation’s marine engines meet the EPA’s Tier 4 and IMO’s Tier III emission standards without the use of selective catalytic reduction equipment or urea-based after-treatment, reducing key emissions by more than 70% compared to emissions from GET’s Tier III locomotives, while maintaining fuel efficiency. These engines are increasingly being accepted in the market.

Stationary Power: GE Transportation provides fuel-efficient medium-speed diesel engines and generator setups (gensets) for continuous and emergency stand-by power applications. Medium-speed diesel generators deliver significantly lower life cycle cost due to reduced fuel consumption, less downtime (e.g., fewer oil changes) and significantly less required maintenance and overhauls compared with high-speed diesel generators. GE Transportation’s primary stationary power industrial customers are based in Asia Pacific, Sub-Saharan Africa and the Middle East.

Services

Locomotive fleet performance is critical for all railroads. Operators strive to maximize the value of their assets over their entire lifecycle, which can be as many as four decades. For locomotives to remain competitive, available, reliable, safe and fuel efficient over such a long period, they require regular maintenance as well as technology upgrades. Operators also often need to adjust fleet haulage profiles to reflect changing market conditions (e.g., moving from build materials to containerized intermodal freight). These requirements translate into significant investments by railroads throughout the entire lifecycle of their locomotives.

GE Transportation has been strategically focused on the Services segment for more than two decades, providing an efficient supply of spare parts, repair instructions, on-site technical support by certified employees and predictive maintenance based on GE Transportation’s suite of remote monitoring and diagnostics solutions. GE Transportation’s installed base comprises approximately 22,500 locomotives globally with an average age of 10 to 15 years, which are distributed across all strategic markets (including North America, Brazil, Australia, Indonesia, South Africa and Kazakhstan). GE Transportation also has a dedicated global service footprint to support its customers’ service requirements. Additionally, GE Transportation’s vertically integrated locomotive offerings and comprehensive set of services and technology solutions are designed to help maintain the operational efficiency of GE Transportation’s customers’ fleets, which GE Transportation believes allows it to win business. GE Transportation supports railroads across the globe to help them achieve best in class cost of ownership, availability, reliability and safety for their locomotive fleets.

Approximately 80% of GE Transportation’s Services revenues are generated in North America, in line with the distribution of its installed base, and around 70% of such revenues are generated from multi-year service agreements, reflecting the long-term and stable nature of the partnership with its customers. Locomotive maintenance can be contracted under different models, ranging from fully transactional set-ups to multi-year contracts. GE Transportation’s customers typically favor long-term agreements associated with performance guarantees for new locomotives and become more transactional as assets age. For locomotives not covered by multi-year contracts, GE Transportation has implemented a rigorous tracking of potential parts usage, which identifies what customers are buying compared to forecasts. GE Transportation has made servicing of transactional customers an important component of its Services segment.

Since 2014, GE Transportation has focused on the development of locomotive modernization offerings. This mid-life locomotive refresh, typically performed with the second engine overhaul, allows railroads to further

144

TABLE OF CONTENTS

maximize the value of their assets over their lifecycle. GE Transportation offers customized solutions that range from controls systems upgrades to complex restorations outfitted with state-of-the-art technologies, which potentially gives locomotives an additional 20 or more years of performance. This refresh ensures GE Transportation’s locomotives remain competitive and prioritized for daily duties over competitor products. The solution is customized depending on a railroad’s fleet strategies (e.g., better fuel consumption, alternative fleet re-purposing, improved tractive effort, step change in reliability and/or digital upgrade). Locomotive modernization has drawn strong interest from both North American and international customers, and as a result, GE Transportation has secured multi-year programs with a majority of Class I railroads and several major international customers resulting in a backlog of over 750 locomotives. Modernizations completed to date have helped GE Transportation’s customers realize a 30% increase in reliability and a 50% increase in haul ability in their locomotives.

Digital

GE Transportation’s Digital segment develops and works with its customers to implement a comprehensive set of software-enabled solutions that deliver significant benefits across the transportation and mining landscape.

Across global freight and mining industries, productivity and efficiency gains, and new business opportunities, should come largely from digital innovation.

Digital solutions have been sold utilizing GE Transportation’s direct sales force and an enterprise license agreement or subscription-based model. Licenses typically include a long-term support contract providing recurring revenue. Post-sales implementation and support has traditionally been done through GE Transportation’s own teams. Approximately 34% of Digital revenues are recurring through Software as a Service (SaaS) or software maintenance contracts. This component of GE Transportation’s revenue is increasing as new products are increasingly subscription based. GE Transportation’s non-recurring revenue comes from hardware, software, and implementation sales. GE Transportation is building a global partner and alliance program, which saw

145

TABLE OF CONTENTS

partner influenced sales in its first full-year (2017). The partner and alliance channel provide geographic scale, domain and local expertise, customer relationships in new markets, and a scalable pool of implementation resources. GE Transportation believes partner and alliance-influenced sales will become an increasingly important component of its growth strategy.

GE Transportation believes its global installed base and domain expertise gives it a significant competitive advantage in its target markets that increasingly look to digital solutions to transform their operations. GE Transportation’s competition consists of fragmented and niche players or enterprise software providers without the domain expertise and focus to meet the demands of the freight transportation and mining industries.

GE Transportation’s customers choose GE Transportation because it combines industry expertise, leading technologies and analytics, and solutions moving to an integrated suite of connected products. Where others have not delivered, GE Transportation has consistently brought high value products that have become industry standards. GE Transportation’s installed base of IoT hardware and software, operational systems, and asset performance management systems and analytics positions GE Transportation to support the growing demand for digital solutions in its target markets.

GE Transportation’s Business Transformation

The transportation industry and GE Transportation’s business specifically experienced significant headwinds in 2016 and 2017 due to a downturn in the U.S. freight rail industry. GE Transportation believes its recent initiatives, including (i) expanding its international footprint, (ii) optimizing its supply base and (iii) utilizing digitization and lean manufacturing to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of its total supply chain, have positioned GE Transportation for growth in the recovering U.S. freight rail market and in international markets.

GE Transportation’s business has historically generated most of its revenues in North America, with more than 80% of GE Transportation’s locomotive deliveries from 2014-2016 going to customers in that region. While North American locomotive deliveries are expected to remain an important driver of GE Transportation’s business, in recent years GE Transportation has prioritized portfolio diversification by geography and product. GE Transportation’s localization and partnership strategy has contributed to recent large international contracts, such as its $2.5 billion contract for 1,000 locomotives with Indian Railways in 2015. In 2017, GE Transportation delivered 281 locomotives to international customers, over 1.5x its average from 2014-2016.

As part of GE Transportation’s international growth, GE Transportation has invested in creating a flexible, truly global footprint that it believes differentiates itself with respect to its competition. Partnerships in India, Kazakhstan, Brazil, South Africa and Korea have enabled GE Transportation to manufacture locomotives in many different regions of the world. For example, GE Transportation now produces up to 100 locomotives a year in its Contagem, Brazil facility for use in Latin America and have recently acquired a 50% stake in local locomotive manufacturer Lokomotiv Kurastyru Zauyty (LKZ) in Kazakhstan to manufacture Evolution series locomotives for customers in Russia/CIS. This globalized approach leverages cost effective manufacturing with an aim to minimize the impact of industry-driven volume changes to GE Transportation’s cost structure and capital investment requirements.

Complementing the globalization of GE Transportation’s supply chain, GE Transportation now utilizes digitization and lean manufacturing strategies to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of its global supply chain, as a part of what GE Transportation defines as its “Brilliant Factory” strategy. Through this strategy, GE Transportation seeks to drive improvements across its entire manufacturing process by reducing waste and removing overall inefficiencies (e.g., wait times, rework, downtime and bottlenecks). Brilliant Factory aims to streamline information and product flow to drive continued productivity and reduction to total manufacturing time.

GE Transportation’s recent initiatives have reduced its variable cost by restructuring its footprint and workforce, reducing full-time employees and increasing the productivity of its business. Between 2016 and 2017, GE Transportation invested more than $320 million in restructuring. The restructuring projects have been completed as of today. GE Transportation expects these investments in operating efficiency to propel the growth of its business as demand from Class I railroads continues to recover.

The Asia Pacific market is driven by continued urbanization in China and India. Investments in Australia remain centered around the mining and natural resource markets. Other key geographical markets include Russia/CIS, Africa and Brazil. With almost 28,000 locomotives, Russia/CIS is amongst the largest markets in the world. In addition, this region has a similarly sized shunter fleet which is substantially aged and in need of replacement.

GE Transportation continues to see new locomotive and modernization opportunities in markets such as Ukraine and Moldova, among others, and are well positioned to capture those opportunities. GE Transportation estimates the Brazilian market opportunity is between 50 and 100 locomotives per annum and is focused on the sugar, agriculture, minerals and mining space. African markets continue to grow, with a renaissance in South Africa stemming from new governmental interest to participate in Pan-African transportation growth opportunities. Nigeria has virtually no freight carried via rail, but given the current state of roads and other transportation infrastructure, an opportunity for growth may materialize. Mozambique, Ivory Coast, Ghana and Cameroon markets all present opportunities for growth as such countries modernize infrastructure.

Raw Materials and Suppliers

The cost of raw materials and components represents a substantial majority of the manufacturing costs of most of GE Transportation’s equipment product lines. As a result, the management of raw materials and components purchasing is critical to GE Transportation’s profitability. See “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Wabtec, Including GE Transportation, After the Transactions—Wabtec may be exposed to raw material shortages, supply shortages and fluctuations in raw material, energy and commodity prices.”

GE Transportation enjoys generally strong relationships with its suppliers, which helps to ensure access to supplies when railcar demand is high.

Customers

GE Transportation’s customers include all operators of GE locomotives globally. GE Transportation’s customers are mainly standalone railroads or logistics divisions of mining or agriculture companies. They include a mix of privately owned and governmental companies, representing a total of approximately 100 different entities. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, GE Transportation’s top ten customers accounted for approximately 83% of GE Transportation’s revenues.

GE Transportation revenue. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, BNSF, Union Pacific and CSX comprised 19%, 13% and 13% of GE Transportation revenue, respectively. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, BNSF, Union Pacific and CSX comprised 17%, 12% and 12% of GE Transportation revenue, respectively. GE Transportation provides them with essential parts and maintenance services for their GE locomotives, helping them to successfully operate wherever they are in the world.

GE Transportation structures its services based on its customers specific needs, ranging from purely transactional parts and services supply, to multi-year agreements based on outcome guarantees (parts availability, locomotive availability and reliability).

Competition

GE Transportation believes it holds a leading market share for many of its core product lines globally. GE Transportation’s market shares are typically higher in North America and lower in other regions of the world, depending on specific product lines and geographies.

GE Transportation operates in a highly competitive marketplace especially in periods of low market demand resulting in excess manufacturing capacity. Price competition is strong because GE Transportation has a relatively small number of customers and they are very cost-conscious. In addition to price, competition is based on product performance and technological leadership, quality, reliability of delivery, and customer service and support.

Employees

As of December 31, 2017, GE Transportation had approximately 8,500 full-time employees, with approximately 30% of the U.S. workforce and 28% of the global workforce unionized.

Regulation

The industries in which GE Transportation operate are subject to extensive regulation by various governmental, regulatory and industry authorities and by federal, state, local and foreign authorities. The primary regulatory and industry authorities involved in the issuance of regulations and standards for the rail industry in the U.S. are the Federal Railroad Administration (“FRA”), the Association of American Railroads (“AAR”) and U.S. Department of Transportation (“USDOT”). The FRA administers and enforces U.S. Federal laws and regulations relating to railroad safety. These regulations govern equipment and safety compliance standards for railcars and rail equipment used in interstate commerce. The AAR promulgates a wide variety of standards governing safety and design of equipment, relationships among railroads with respect to railcars in interchange and other matters. The AAR also certifies railcar manufacturers and component manufacturers that provide equipment for use on railroads in the U.S. New products must generally undergo AAR testing and approval processes. Because of these regulations, GE Transportation must maintain certifications with the AAR as a manufacturer of locomotives and components, and products that it sells must meet AAR and FRA standards. GE Transportation must also comply with the rules of the USDOT.

GE Transportation is also subject to oversight in other jurisdictions by foreign regulatory agencies. The governing bodies include Transport Canada in Canada, the International Union of Railways (“UIC”) and the European Railway Agencies (“EUAR”) in Europe. Also in Europe, the European Committees for Standardization (“CEN” and “CENELEC”) continually draft new European standards which cover, for example, the Reliability, Availability, Maintainability and Safety of railways systems. To guarantee interoperability in Europe, the European Union for Railway Agencies is responsible for defining and implementing Technical Standards of Interoperability, which covers areas such as infrastructure, energy, rolling stock, telematic applications, traffic operation and management subsystems, noise pollution and waste generation, protection against fire and smoke, and system safety. Most countries and regions in which GE Transportation does business have similar rule-making bodies. In Russia, a GOST-R certificate of conformity is mandatory for all products related to the safety of individuals on Russian territory. In China, any product or system sold on the Chinese market must have been certified in accordance with national standards. In the local Indian market, most products are covered by regulations patterned after AAR and UIC standards.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Effects of Seasonality

GE Transportation’s business is not typically seasonal, although the third quarter results may be affected by vacation and scheduled plant shutdowns at several of its major customers during this period. Quarterly results can also be affected by the timing of projects in backlog and by project delays.

Environmental and Regulatory Matters

GE Transportation is subject to comprehensive federal, state, local and international environmental laws and regulations relating to the release or discharge of materials into the environment, the management, use, processing, handling, storage, transport or disposal of hazardous materials, or otherwise relating to the protection of human health and the environment. These laws and regulations not only exposes GE Transportation to liability for its own negligent acts, but also may expose GE Transportation to liability for the conduct of others or for its actions that complied with all applicable laws at the time these actions were taken. In addition, these laws may require significant expenditures to achieve compliance, and are frequently modified or revised to impose new obligations. Civil and criminal fines and penalties may be imposed for non-compliance with these environmental laws and regulations. GE Transportation’s operations that involve hazardous materials also raise potential risks of liability under the common law.

Environmental operating permits are, or may be, required for GE Transportation’s operations under environmental laws and regulations. These operating permits are subject to modification, renewal and revocation. GE Transportation regularly monitors and reviews its operations, procedures and policies for compliance with these laws and regulations. Despite these compliance efforts, risk of environmental liability is inherent in the operation of GE Transportation’s business, as it is with other businesses engaged in similar industries. GE Transportation believes that its operations and facilities are in substantial compliance with applicable laws and regulations and that any noncompliance is not likely to have a material adverse effect on its operations or financial condition.

Future events, such as changes in or modified interpretations of existing laws and regulations or enforcement policies, or further investigation or evaluation of the potential health hazards of products or business activities, may give rise to additional compliance and other costs that could have a material adverse effect on GE Transportation’s financial condition and operations. In addition, GE Transportation has in the past conducted investigation and remediation activities at properties that GE Transportation operates to address historic contamination. To date, such costs have not been material. Although GE Transportation believes GE Transportation has satisfactorily addressed all known material contamination through its remediation activities, there can be no assurance that these activities have addressed all historic contamination. The discovery of historic contamination or the release of hazardous substances into the environment could require GE Transportation in the future to incur investigation or remediation costs or other liabilities that could be material or that could interfere with the operation of GE Transportation’s business.

In addition to environmental laws and regulations, the transportation of commodities by railcar raises potential risks in the event of a derailment or other accident. Generally, liability under existing law in the United States for a derailment or other accident depends on the negligence of the party, such as the railroad, the shipper or the manufacturer of the railcar or its components. However, for the shipment of certain hazardous commodities, strict liability concepts may apply.

Intellectual Property

GE Transportation relies on a combination of trade secrets and other intellectual property, nondisclosure agreements and other protective measures to establish and protect its proprietary rights in its intellectual property. GE Transportation also follows the product development practices of its competitors to monitor any possible patent infringement by them, and to evaluate their strategies and plans.

GE Transportation has entered into a variety of license agreements as licensor and licensee. GE Transportation does not believe that any single license agreement is of material importance to its business or any of its business segments as a whole.

Legal Proceedings

GE Transportation is, from time to time, party to general legal proceedings and claims, which arise in the ordinary course of business. GE Transportation is also, from time to time, party to legal proceedings and claims in respect of environmental obligations, product liability, intellectual property and other matters which arise in the ordinary course of business and against which management believes meritorious defenses are available.

While it is not possible to quantify the financial impact or predict the outcome of all pending claims and litigation, management does not anticipate that the outcome of any current proceedings or known claims, either individually or in aggregate, will have a material adverse effect upon GE Transportation’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Overview

GE Transportation is a leading global provider of products and solutions to transportation, logistics and other industrial markets. GE Transportation designs, engineers and manufactures diesel-electric locomotives, supplies associated aftermarket parts and services and provides digital solutions. GE Transportation’s culture of innovation and differentiated aftermarket solutions has allowed it to build a leading global installed base of diesel-electric locomotives, significant contracted services backlog and longstanding customer relationships. GE Transportation’s products and services are important to its customers’ operating and financial success and help them operate with reliability and efficiency. Leveraging its heritage in diesel-electric locomotives, GE Transportation has continued to expand its technologies into new products, end markets and logistics applications. Leveraging its core competencies in locomotive manufacturing, GE Transportation produces electric motors and premium propulsion systems for mining, marine, stationary power and drilling applications. GE Transportation also has used its engineering and software capabilities to build a digital business that delivers significant benefits across the transportation and mining landscape. GE Transportation’s products are globally recognized for their quality, reliability, fuel efficiency and emissions compliance, and GE Transportation is known for its superior customer service. These attributes combined have fostered strong brand loyalty and generated longstanding customer relationships, which contribute to its leading market positions. As of September 30, 2018, GE Transportation’s North American installed base was more than 16,000 diesel-electric locomotives and kits, comprising the largest portion of GE Transportation’s global installed base of more than 23,000 diesel-electric locomotives and kits. As of September 30, 2018, GE Transportation had sales in more than 50 countries and eight primary manufacturing facilities and approximately 9,200 employees worldwide. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, GE Transportation generated revenue of $2,718 million and net earnings of $274 million.

For over 110 years, GE Transportation has served the worldwide freight and passenger rail industries, which are a critical component of the global transportation system and the global economy. In North America, railroads carry about 28% of total freight, as measured by ton-miles, and over 40% of long distance freight travelling over 750 miles, which is more than any other mode of transportation. Rail is one of the most cost-effective, energy-efficient modes of transport, both domestically and internationally. GE Transportation’s North American customers are principally Class I railroads. GE Transportation’s international customers are principally international freight and passenger railroads in Latin America, Russia/CIS, Australia, India and Sub-Saharan Africa, who depend on diesel-electric locomotives. GE Transportation’s diverse product portfolio is designed to cater to the varying requirements of Class I and international railroads. GE Transportation’s customers’ ongoing usage of locomotives and associated wear and tear on the equipment present opportunities to support railroads with aftermarket parts and services. Railroads place a high value on reliability, fuel efficiency and minimal downtime. As a result, the availability of replacement parts and GE Transportation’s maintenance and overhaul services are important value drivers for GE Transportation’s customers and generate high-margin recurring revenue opportunities.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

GE Transportation’s business experienced significant headwinds in 2016 and 2017 due to a downturn in the U.S. freight rail industry driven by commodity prices. GE Transportation has recently undergone a set of transformation and restructuring initiatives, including expanding its international footprint, optimizing its supply base and utilizing digitization and lean manufacturing to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of its total supply chain. GE Transportation believes these initiatives have resulted in a more streamlined cost structure and optimized workforce to position it for growth in the recovering U.S. freight rail market and in international markets.

Factors Impacting GE Transportation’s Performance

GE Transportation primarily serves the worldwide freight and transit rail industries. As such, its operating results are largely dependent on the level of activity, financial condition and capital spending plans of railroads and passenger transit agencies around the world, and transportation equipment manufacturers who serve those markets. Many factors influence these industries, including general economic conditions; traffic volumes, as measured by freight carloadings and passenger ridership; government spending on public transportation; and investment in new technologies. In general, trends such as increasing urbanization, a focus on sustainability and environmental awareness, an aging equipment fleet, and growth in global trade are expected to drive continued investment in freight and transit rail.

GE Transportation monitors a variety of factors and statistics to gauge market activity. Freight rail markets around the world are driven primarily by overall economic conditions and activity, while transit markets are driven primarily by government funding and passenger ridership. Changes in these market drivers can cause fluctuations in demand for GE Transportation’s products and services.

According to the 2018 edition of the World Rail Market Study by UNIFE, the Association of the European Rail Industry, the accessible global market for railway products and services is more than $115 billion and is expected to grow at about 2.6% annually through 2023. The three largest geographic markets, which represent nearly 80% of the total accessible market, are Western Europe, North America and Asia Pacific. UNIFE projects that all regional markets will grow through 2023, with more mature markets like North America accounting for the largest share of absolute growth due to planned large-scale transit projects and smaller markets like Latin America and Africa/Middle East experiencing the highest growth rates due to infrastructure and transit investments. The largest product segments of the market are services, rolling stock, and infrastructure, which represent almost 90% of the accessible market. UNIFE projects that the rolling stock and services segments will be the most significant absolute growth drivers through 2023, with projected growth rates of 2.7% and 2.5%, respectively. UNIFE projects spending on rolling stock to grow due to increased investment in passenger transit vehicles (particularly high-speed trains). UNIFE estimates that the global installed base of locomotives is about 114,000 units, with about 33% in Asia Pacific, about 26% in North America and about 18% in Russia/CIS.

In North America, railroads carry about 40% of long distance freight travelling over 750 miles, as measured by ton-miles, which is more than any other mode of transportation. Through direct ownership and operating partnerships, U.S. railroads are part of an integrated network that includes railroads in Canada and Mexico, forming what is regarded as the world’s most-efficient and lowest-cost freight rail service. There are more than 500 railroads operating in North America, with the largest railroads, referred to as “Class I,” accounting for more than 90% of the industry’s revenues. The railroads carry a wide variety of commodities and goods, including coal, metals, minerals, chemicals, grain, and petroleum. These commodities represent about 50% of total rail carloadings, with intermodal carloads accounting for the rest. Railroads operate in a competitive environment, especially with the trucking industry and the emergence of autonomous trucks, and are always seeking ways to improve safety, cost and reliability. New technologies offered by GE Transportation and others in the industry can provide some of these benefits. Demand for GE Transportation’s locomotives, freight related products and services, and digital solutions in North America is driven by a number of factors, including rail traffic, average railroad velocity and production of new locomotives and new freight cars. In the U.S., the passenger transit industry is dependent largely on funding from federal, state and local governments, and from fare box revenues. Demand for North American passenger transit products is driven by a number of factors, including government funding, deliveries of new subway cars and buses, and ridership. The U.S. federal government provides money to local transit authorities, primarily to fund the purchase of new equipment and infrastructure for their transit systems. Demand for GE Transportation’s services is affected by the number of parked locomotives, which hit historic highs in 2016 and has recovered into 2018.

153

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Growth in the Asia Pacific market has been driven mainly by the continued urbanization of China and India, and by investments in infrastructure, metro vehicles, and rail controls. India is making significant investments in rolling stock and infrastructure to modernize its rail system; for example, the country has awarded a 1,000-unit locomotive order to GE Transportation.

Other key geographic markets include Russia/CIS and Africa-Middle East. With about 1.2 million freight cars and about 26,000 locomotives, Russia/CIS is among the largest freight rail markets in the world, and it’s expected to invest in both freight and transit rolling stock. Africa-Middle East rail supply is expected to grow over the long-term due to investment in transit vehicles in South Africa, growing demand for infrastructure in the Middle East, and services needs to support new rail systems going into service.

In its study, UNIFE also said it expected increased investment in digital tools for data and asset management, and in rail control technologies, both of which would improve efficiency in the global rail industry. UNIFE said data-driven asset management tools have the potential to reduce equipment maintenance costs and improve asset utilization, while rail control technologies have been focused on increasing track capacity, improving operational efficiency and ensuring safer railway traffic. GE Transportation offers integrated solutions to help customers make ongoing investments in these initiatives.

In 2018 and beyond, general global economic and market conditions will have an impact on GE Transportation’s sales and operations. To the extent that these factors cause instability of capital markets amid a rising interest rate environment, shortages of raw materials or component parts, longer sales cycles, deferral or delay of customer orders or an inability to market GE Transportation’s products effectively with a higher cost of capital, GE Transportation’s business and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. In addition, GE Transportation faces risks inherent in global expansion and risk associated with its four-point growth strategy, including the level of investment in innovation that customers are willing to make, especially in integrated technologies developed by the industry and GE Transportation. When necessary, GE Transportation will modify its financial and operating strategies to reflect changes in market conditions and risks.

GE Transportation’s operating results are included in the consolidated income tax returns of GE where allowable. The provision for income taxes represents federal, state and local, and non-U.S. taxes on income calculated on a separate tax return basis. As a separate stand-alone company, GE Transportation’s tax profile may differ from historical results.

Net earnings

Net earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $273,566 thousand, an increase of $112,749 thousand, or 70%, from $160,817 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, primarily attributable to improvements in gross profit and other income as well as lower provisions for taxes, offset by higher SG&A costs.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Sales of goods

Sales of goods for the year ended December 31, 2017 was $2,546,637 thousand, a decrease of $499,909 thousand, or 16%, from $3,046,546 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2016. Locomotive unit shipments were down 42%, driven by a 72% decrease of North America shipments, partially offset by a 36% increase in international locomotive shipments. Locomotive shipment decline was partially offset by an 82% increase in mining wheel shipments and a 24% increase in sales of locomotive spare parts.

Sales of services

Sales of services for the year ended December 31, 2017 was $1,383,671 thousand, a decrease of $176,374 thousand, or 11%, from $1,560,045 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2016. Contractual services were down 11%, primarily driven by lower volume on existing long term maintenance contracts attributable to lower asset utilization by North American customers reducing the need for spare parts and maintenance. Though carload volumes improved slightly in 2017 and the number of parked locomotives declined, parking still remained near historically high levels and the environment for sales of services remained challenging. The decline in sales of services was partly offset by continued sales to the international installed base, as well as aftermarket digital product sales, which continued to see growth.

Total revenues

Total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2017 was $3,930,308 thousand, a decrease of $676,283 thousand, or 15%, from $4,606,591 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2016. The Equipment segment was the largest contributor to the decline in revenues with a $676,272 thousand decline, or 28%.

The decrease was due to the decrease in North America shipments discussed above and a $36,766 thousand decrease in restructuring costs, partially offset by increased costs from increased international locomotive shipments, mining wheels and locomotive spare parts volume discussed above.

Cost of services sold

Cost of services sold for the year ended December 31, 2017 was $877,390 thousand, a decrease of $31,726 thousand, or 4%, from $909,116 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2016. The decline was due to a 9% decrease in contractual services, primarily driven by lower volume on existing long term maintenance contracts.

Gross profit

Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2017 was $923,234 thousand, a decrease of $248,403 thousand, or 21%, from $1,171,637 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2016. Gross profit related to goods was down 20% primarily driven by softness in North American locomotive markets, partially offset by increased locomotive spare parts volume and lower restructuring charges. Gross Profit related to services were down 22% primarily driven by softness in the contractual services market for maintenance.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling, general and administrative expense for the year ended December 31, 2017 was $449,651 thousand, an increase of $17,422 thousand, or 4%, from $432,229 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2016. The increase is primarily attributable to costs from new acquisitions of $8,941 thousand and restructuring costs of $4,321 thousand.

Impairment of goodwill

There was no impairment of goodwill for the year ended December 31, 2017 compared to $2,027 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2016, due in part to an improved global commodities market positively impacting the fair value of the reporting units.

Other (expense) income

Other (expense) income for the year ended December 31, 2017 was $(24,307) thousand, an increase of $12,898 thousand, or 113%, from $(11,409) thousand for the year ended December 31, 2016, primarily attributable to a one-time sale of leased equipment in 2016.

Income taxes

The effective income tax rate was significantly reduced to 10% in the year ended December 31, 2017 from 24% in the year ended December 31, 2016. The decrease in the effective rate was primarily the result of newly enacted U.S. tax reform regulations.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Sales of goods

Sales of goods for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $3,046,546 thousand, a decrease of $951,554 thousand, or 24%, from $3,998,100 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2015, primarily attributable to the Equipment segment. North American locomotive deliveries as well the demand for replacement parts declined. Challenges in the coal and petroleum industries led to a decrease in carload volumes, which in turn led to a significant increase in the number of parked locomotives.

Sales of services

Sales of services for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $1,560,045 thousand, an increase of $136,666 thousand, or 10%, from $1,423,379 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2015, primarily driven by the Services segment. North America maintenance and non-U.S. sales of services were both favorable compared to the prior year. Increased sales of services were also due in part to growth in sales of Digital.

Total revenues

Total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $4,606,591 thousand, a decrease of $814,888 thousand, or 15%, from $5,421,479 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2015. The decline in total revenues was primarily attributable to the Equipment segment. Non-U.S. revenues increased as a percentage of total revenues over 2015, up to 38% of total revenues compared to 31% of total revenues in 2015.

Cost of goods sold

Cost of goods sold for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $2,525,838 thousand, a decrease of $637,960 thousand, or 20%, from $3,163,798 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2015, primarily attributable to the associated costs related to declining North American locomotive deliveries and replacement parts.

Cost of services sold

Cost of services sold for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $909,116 thousand, a decrease of $22,629 thousand, or 2%, from $931,745 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2015, primarily attributable to lower costs associated with the disposal of the signaling business in November 2015.

Gross profit

Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $1,171,637 thousand, a decrease of $154,299 thousand, or 12%, from $1,325,936 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2015. The decline in gross profit was primarily attributable to challenging market conditions in North America. Total gross margin remained at 25% from 2015. Gross margins on sales of goods fell to 17% in 2016, down from 21% in 2015. Gross margins on sales of services grew to 42% in 2016, up from 35% in 2015.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $432,229 thousand, an increase of $17,741 thousand, or 4%, from $414,488 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2015, primarily attributable to an increase of restructuring costs.

Impairment of goodwill

Impairment of goodwill for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $2,027 thousand, a decrease of $83,394 thousand, or 98%, from $85,421 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2015. The suppression of the global commodities market and the resulting impact on the global mining investment environment led to a revision of expected cash flows for all reporting units in 2015, resulting in an impairment of goodwill. In 2016, the goodwill impairment for the Equipment segment was reversed due to a slight improvement in market conditions.

Non-operating benefit costs

Non-operating benefit costs for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $18,455 thousand, an increase of $2,206 thousand, or 14%, from $16,249 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2015, primarily due to a decrease in pension and severance costs offset by an increase in health benefits for retirees.

Income taxes

The effective income tax rate was reduced to 24% in the year ended December 31, 2016 from 42% in the year ended December 31, 2015.

Net earnings

Net earnings for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $540,089 thousand, an increase of $52,465 thousand, or 11%, from $487,624 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2015. The increase in net earnings was primarily due to improved margins in GE Transportation’s services business, partly offset by declining margins for sales of goods.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017

Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities was $58,700 thousand during the first nine months of 2018, an increase of $62,222 thousand, from ($3,522) thousand during the prior year period. The increase was driven primarily by improved earnings before income taxes which increased $107,918 thousand. Earnings before income taxes increased due to improvements in gross profit and lower interest expense, partially offset by increases in SG&A. The cash generated by earnings was partially offset by cash used for working capital management. Changes in working capital were primarily attributable to increases in inventory in preparation for fourth quarter locomotive and mining unit deliveries and increases in accounts receivable due to lower utilization of the receivable factoring program and increases in customer days sales outstanding. The increase in inventory and accounts receivable was partially offset by improvements in accounts payable days to pay as well as reduced liquidations of progress collections due to deposits received on new orders.

Investing Activities

Cash (used for) investing activities in the first nine months of 2018 was ($109,038) thousand, a reduction of $74,837 thousand, from ($183,875) thousand during the prior year period. The decrease was driven by GE

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Transportation’s purchase of a 50% interest in locomotive manufacturer Lokomotiv Kurastyru Zauyty (LKZ) in 2017 in addition to reduced investment in property, plant and equipment and internal-use software.

Financing Activities

Cash provided by financing activities was $80,451 thousand in the first nine months of 2018, a decrease of $152,457 thousand, from $232,908 thousand during the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction of $153,928 thousand of transfers received from GE when compared to the first nine months of 2017 in addition to dividends paid to noncontrolling interest holders, partially offset by the receipt of the final tranche of the unsecured loan facility from Wipro GE Healthcare Private Limited in the first nine months of 2018.

Year Ended December 31, 2017 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2016

Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities was $322,004 thousand during the year ended December 31, 2017, a decrease of $531,708 thousand, from $853,712 thousand during the year ended December 31, 2016. Earnings before income taxes was down $275,118 thousand primarily due to lower North American locomotive deliveries and services volume decline. Working capital decreased by $197,695 thousand primarily due to down payments received in prior years that were recognized as revenue in 2017.

Investing Activities

Cash (used for) investing activities was $(200,956) thousand during the year ended December 31, 2017, a decrease of $32,742 thousand, from $(168,214) thousand in year ended December 31, 2016. This was mainly due to an increase in GE Transportation’s non-U.S. manufacturing footprint and continued investment in GE Transportation’s Digital business, partly offset by proceeds from the sale of assets as part of GE Transportation’s restructuring activities.

Financing Activities

Cash (used for) financing activities was $(171,062) thousand during the year ended December 31, 2017, an increase of $454,524 thousand, from $(625,586) thousand in the year ended December 31, 2016, mainly due to a substantial $499,998 thousand reduction in payments to GE when compared to 2016. GE Transportation also made repayments of debt, which were partly offset by newly issued debt.

Cash provided by operating activities was $853,712 thousand during the year ended December 31, 2016, a decrease of $21,522 thousand, from $875,234 thousand during the year ended December 31, 2015. Earnings before income taxes was down $129,382 thousand offset by improvements in material management of $108,776 thousand.

Investing Activities

Cash (used for) investing activities was $(168,214) thousand during the year ended December 31, 2016, a decrease of $57,661, from $(225,875) thousand in year ended December 31, 2015. This was mainly due to a reduction of GE Transportation’s capital expenditures, offset by GE Transportation’s expansion of non-U.S. manufacturing capacity.

Financing Activities

Cash (used for) financing activities was $(625,586) thousand during the year ended December 31, 2016, a decrease of $2,816 thousand, from $(622,770) thousand in the year ended December 31, 2015, mainly due to no new debt being issued in 2016, and a slightly reduced payment to GE.

Indebtedness

As of September 30, 2018, GE Transportation’s borrowings consisted principally of an unsecured loan facility.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Unsecured loan facility

In September 2017, GE Transportation entered into an unsecured loan facility agreement with Wipro GE Healthcare Private Limited to fund various ongoing projects and operational requirements. The loan had a total disbursement value of $68,703 thousand as of September 30, 2018, disbursed in three tranches. As of December 31, 2017, the first two tranches had been disbursed with a total value of $44,256 thousand. The final tranche was disbursed in the first quarter of 2018. The loan carries an 8% annual interest rate, compounded quarterly and matures in three tranches due October 2019, November 2019, and January 2020.

Off Balance Sheet Obligations

As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Business has off-balance sheet credit exposure for bank guarantees of approximately $461,048 thousand and $532,196 thousand, respectively. These balances represent the notional amount of bank guarantees obtained in the normal course of business from non-affiliated third party financial institutions to guarantee the Business’s own performance on contracts with customers and suppliers. In the event nonperformance by the Business results in a customer or supplier drawings on the guarantee, the Business would be secondarily liable. Historically, the Business has not experienced any losses on these credit exposures.

Contractual Obligations, Commitments and Contingencies

Future minimum lease payments on non-cancelable operating lease arrangements, net of amounts due under subleases, as of December 31, 2017, consist of the following:

In thousands | Payment Due by Period
Contractual Obligations | Total | Less than 1 year | 1-3 years | 3-5 years | More than 5 years
Operating Leases | $ | 100,097 |  |  | 23,670 |  |  | 24,083 |  |  | 15,915 |  |  | 36,429 |

GE Transportation did not enter into any additional material operating leases during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Additionally, GE Transportation did not enter into any significant capital leases during the three years ended December 31, 2017 or in the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

GE Transportation’s business involves buying, manufacturing and selling components and products across global markets. These activities expose GE Transportation to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices which can adversely affect revenues earned and costs of its operating businesses. When the currency in which equipment is sold differs from the primary currency of the legal entity and the exchange rate fluctuates, it will affect the revenue earned on the sale. These sales and purchase transactions also create receivables and payables denominated in foreign currencies and exposure to foreign currency gains and losses based on changes in exchange rates. Changes in the price of raw materials used in manufacturing can affect the cost of manufacturing, including any potential change in tariffs and free trade agreements. GE Transportation uses derivatives to mitigate or eliminate these exposures, where appropriate. Most derivative activity consists of currency exchange and commodity contracts.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of combined financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires GE Transportation’s management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of any contingent assets or liabilities at the date of these combined financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. GE Transportation bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions and information that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Estimates and assumptions about future events and their effects cannot be perceived with certainty, and accordingly, these estimates may change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as GE Transportation’s operating environment changes. While GE Transportation believes that the estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of these combined financial statements are appropriate, actual results could differ from those estimates.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Estimates are used for, but are not limited to, determining the following: estimates of variable revenues and/or costs on long-term revenue generating contracts, recoverability of long-lived assets and inventory, valuation of goodwill; useful lives used in depreciation and amortization; income taxes and related valuation allowances; accruals for contingencies including warranties; actuarial assumptions used to determine costs on employee benefit plans, valuation assumptions for long term stock-based compensation expense, valuation and recoverability of receivables, valuation of derivatives and the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in acquisitions.

Revenue from contracts with customers

Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, (ASC 606), requires GE Transportation to make certain estimates that affect the amount and timing of revenue recognized in a given period, primarily related to equipment and service contracts that are recognized on an overtime basis (refer to Note 2 and Note 3 to GE Transportation’s audited financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus-information statement for further discussion of GE Transportation’s accounting policy for these contracts). The most critical estimates relevant to GE Transportation’s revenue accounting are related to GE Transportation’s long-term CSAs as discussed below.

GE Transportation enters into CSA contracts with GE Transportation’s customers, which require GE Transportation to provide preventative maintenance, asset overhaul / updates, and standby “warranty-type” services that include certain levels of assurance regarding asset performance and uptime throughout the contract periods, which generally range from 5 to 25 years. Contract modifications that extend or revise contract terms are not uncommon and generally result in GE Transportation’s recognizing the impact of the revised terms prospectively over the remaining life of the modified contract (i.e., effectively like a new contract). GE Transportation’s revenue recognition on CSAs requires estimates of both customer payments expected to be received over the contract term as well as the costs expected to be incurred to perform required maintenance services. GE Transportation routinely reviews estimates under product services agreements and regularly revises them to adjust for changes in outlook as described below.

GE Transportation recognizes revenue as it performs under these arrangements using an over-time accounting model based on costs incurred relative to total expected costs. Throughout the life of a contract, this measure of progress captures the timing and extent of GE Transportation’s underlying performance activities as GE Transportation’s stand-ready services often fluctuate between routine inspections and maintenance, unscheduled service events and major overhauls at pre-determined usage intervals. Customers generally pay GE Transportation based on the utilization of the asset (daily billing rate per running locomotive for example) or upon the occurrence of a major event within the contract such as an overhaul. As a result, a significant estimate in determining expected revenues of a contract is estimating how customers will utilize their assets over the term of the agreement. Changes in customer utilization can influence the timing and extent of overhauls and other service events over the life of the contract.

As a result, the revenue recognized each period is dependent on GE Transportation’s estimate of how a customer will utilize their assets over the term of the agreement. GE Transportation generally uses a combination of both historical utilization trends as well as forward-looking information such as market conditions, locomotive parking and potential asset retirements in developing GE Transportation’s revenue estimates. This estimate of customer utilization will impact both the total contract billings and costs to satisfy GE Transportation’s obligation to maintain the equipment. To the extent required, GE Transportation limits the amount of variable consideration used to estimate GE Transportation’s transaction price such that it is improbable that a significant revenue reversal will occur in future periods.

To develop GE Transportation’s cost estimates, GE Transportation considers the timing and extent of future maintenance and overhaul events, including the amount and cost of labor, spare parts and other resources required to perform the services. In developing GE Transportation’s cost estimates, GE Transportation utilizes a combination of GE Transportation’s historical cost experience and expected cost improvements. Cost improvements are only included in future cost estimates after savings have been observed in actual results or proven effective through an extensive regulatory or engineering approval process.

GE Transportation regularly assesses customer credit risk inherent in the carrying amounts of receivables and contract assets and estimated earnings, including the risk that contractual penalties may not be sufficient to offset GE Transportation’s accumulated investment in the event of customer termination. GE Transportation gains

insight into future utilization and cost trends, as well as credit risk, through GE Transportation’s knowledge of the installed base of equipment and the close interaction with GE Transportation’s customers that comes with supplying critical services and parts over extended periods.

Long-lived assets

GE Transportation reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Determining whether an impairment has occurred typically requires various estimates and assumptions, including determining which undiscounted cash flows are directly related to the potentially impaired asset, the useful life over which cash flows will occur, their amount, and the asset’s residual value, if any. In turn, measurement of an impairment loss requires a determination of fair value, which is based on the best information available. GE Transportation derives the required undiscounted cash flow estimates from GE Transportation’s historical experience and GE Transportation’s internal business plans. To determine fair value, GE Transportation uses quoted market prices when available, GE Transportation’s internal cash flow estimates discounted at an appropriate discount rate and independent appraisals, as appropriate.

See Note 2 to GE Transportation’s audited financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus-information statement for further information on impairment losses.

Goodwill and other identified intangible assets

GE Transportation tests goodwill for impairment annually each year. The impairment test consists of two steps: in step one, the carrying value of the reporting unit is compared with its fair value; in step two, which is applied when the carrying value is more than its fair value, the amount of goodwill impairment, if any, is derived by deducting the fair value of the reporting unit’s assets and liabilities from the fair value of its equity, and comparing that amount with the carrying amount of goodwill. GE Transportation determines fair values for each of the reporting units using the market approach, when available and appropriate, or the income approach, or a combination of both. GE Transportation assesses the valuation methodology based upon the relevance and availability of the data at the time GE Transportation performs the valuation. If multiple valuation methodologies are used, the results are weighted appropriately.

Valuations using the market approach are derived from metrics of publicly traded companies or historically completed transactions of comparable businesses. The selection of comparable businesses is based on the markets in which the reporting units operate giving consideration to risk profiles, size, geography, and diversity of products and services. A market approach is limited to reporting units for which there are publicly traded companies that have the characteristics similar to GE Transportation’s businesses.

Under the income approach, fair value is determined based on the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at an appropriate risk-adjusted rate. GE Transportation uses its internal forecasts to estimate future cash flows and include an estimate of long-term future growth rates based on GE Transportation’s most recent views of the long-term outlook for each business. Actual results may differ from those assumed in GE Transportation’s forecasts. GE Transportation derives its discount rates using a capital asset pricing model and analyzing published rates for industries relevant to GE Transportation’s reporting units to estimate the cost of equity financing. GE Transportation uses discount rates that are commensurate with the risks and uncertainty inherent in the respective businesses and in GE Transportation’s internally developed forecasts.

Estimating the fair value of reporting units requires the use of estimates and significant judgments that are based on a number of factors including actual operating results. It is reasonably possible that the judgments and estimates described above could change in future periods.

GE Transportation reviews identified intangible assets with defined useful lives and subject to amortization for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Determining whether an impairment loss occurred requires comparing the carrying amount to the sum of undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. GE Transportation tests intangible assets with indefinite lives annually for impairment using a fair value method such as discounted cash flows.

See Notes 2 and 8 to GE Transportation’s audited financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus-information statement for further information.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill. This ASU simplifies the measurement of goodwill impairment to a single-step test. The guidance removes step two of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation, and will now be the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. Under the revised guidance, failing step one will always result in goodwill impairment. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests beginning after December 15, 2019 and early adoption is permitted. GE Transportation is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2017-04 on GE Transportation’s combined financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The ASU introduces a new accounting model, the Current Expected Credit Losses model (CECL), which requires earlier recognition of credit losses, while also providing additional transparency about credit risk. The CECL model utilizes a lifetime expected credit loss measurement objective for the recognition of credit losses for loans and other receivables at the time the financial asset is originated or acquired. The expected credit losses are adjusted each period for changes in expected lifetime credit losses. This model replaces the multiple existing impairment models under current U.S. GAAP, which generally require that a loss be incurred before it is recognized. The new standard will also apply to receivables arising from revenue transactions such as contract assets and accounts receivables and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. GE Transportation continues to evaluate the effect of the standard on GE Transportation’s combined financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, creating ASC Subtopic 842, Leases. ASU 2016-02 sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both lessees and lessors. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to present a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability on the balance sheet. Lessor accounting is substantially unchanged compared to the current accounting guidance. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and for the interim and annual reporting periods thereafter, with early adoption permitted. We are planning to elect the new transition method approved by the FASB on July 30, 2018, which allows companies to apply the provisions of the new leasing standard as of January 1, 2019, without adjusting the comparative periods presented by recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. We are currently in the process of accumulating and evaluating all the necessary information required to properly account for our lease portfolio under the new standard. Additionally, we are implementing an enterprise-wide lease management system to support the ongoing accounting requirements. Development and testing of our selected systems solution is ongoing. Our Parent is working closely with the software system developer as the timely readiness of the lease software system is critical to ensure an efficient and effective adoption of the standard. We are evaluating additional changes to our processes and internal controls to ensure we meet the standard’s reporting and disclosure requirements. While we continue to evaluate the effect of the standard on our combined financial statements, the adoption of the ASU will result in the recognition of a right of use asset and related liability in the Combined Statement of Financial Position upon adoption.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are presented to illustrate the estimated effects of the Transactions described in this prospectus-information statement under “The Transactions.”

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2018, and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017 (collectively, the “Pro Forma Statements”) have been prepared in compliance with the requirements of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act using accounting policies in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is based on Wabtec’s historical consolidated financial statements and GE Transportation’s historical combined financial statements as adjusted to give effect to the Transactions, including the Merger.

Accounting policies used in the preparation of the Pro Forma Statements are based on the audited consolidated financial statements of Wabtec for the year ended December 31, 2017 and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Pro Forma adjustments have been made to GE Transportation’s financial statements to align to Wabtec’s accounting policies. Specifically, GE Transportation adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” using the full retrospective method. Included as a pro forma adjustment in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2017 is an adjustment to conform GE Transportation’s method of adopting ASC 606 to Wabtec’s method of adoption which was the modified retrospective method.

The Transactions have not been consummated. The pro forma adjustments are based on preliminary estimates and currently available information and assumptions that Wabtec management believes are reasonable. The notes to the Pro Forma Statements provide a discussion of how such adjustments were derived and presented in the Pro Forma Statements. Changes in facts and circumstances or discovery of new information may result in revised estimates. As a result, there may be material adjustments to the Pro Forma Statements. See note 7 to the Pro Forma Statements. Certain historical GE Transportation and Wabtec financial statement caption amounts have been reclassified or combined to conform to Wabtec’s presentation and the disclosure requirements of the combined company. See note 6 to the Pro Forma Statements.

The Pro Forma Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of Wabtec as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017, which are incorporated by reference herein from Wabtec’s current report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on September 10, 2018, Wabtec’s interim financial statements as of and for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2018, which are incorporated by reference herein from Wabtec’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC for the quarter ended September 30, 2018, and the audited combined financial statements of GE Transportation as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017 and GE Transportation’s interim financial statements as of and for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2018, which are, in each case, included elsewhere in this prospectus-information statement. GE Transportation’s historical financial statements included in this prospectus-information statement have been presented on a “carve-out” basis from GE’s consolidated financial statements using the historical results of operations, cash flows, assets and liabilities of GE Transportation and include allocations of corporate expenses from GE. These allocations reflect significant assumptions, and the financial statements do not fully reflect what GE Transportation’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows would have been had it been a stand-alone company during the periods presented. As a result, historical financial information is not necessarily indicative of GE Transportation’s future results of operations, financial position or cash flows. The note disclosure requirements of annual consolidated financial statements provide additional disclosures to that required for pro forma condensed combined financial information.

The unaudited Pro Forma Statements give effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred on January 1, 2017, for the purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017. The unaudited Pro Forma Statements give effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred on September 30, 2018, for the purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet. In the opinion of Wabtec’s management, these Pro Forma Statements include all material adjustments necessary to be in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act.

The Pro Forma Statements are presented for illustrative purposes only and may not be indicative of the results of operations that would have occurred if the events reflected therein had been in effect on the dates indicated or the results which may be obtained in the future. In preparing the Pro Forma Statements, no adjustments have been made to reflect the potential operating synergies and administrative cost savings or the costs of integration activities that could result from the combination of Wabtec and GE Transportation. Actual amounts recorded upon consummation of the Transactions will differ from the Pro Forma Statements, and the differences may be material.

| 1. | Description of the transaction

GE, Wabtec, SpinCo and Merger Sub, entered into the Merger Agreement on May 20, 2018, and GE, SpinCo, Wabtec and Direct Sale Purchaser entered into the Separation Agreement on May 20, 2018, which together provide for the combination of Wabtec and GE Transportation through a modified Reverse Morris Trust transaction structure. In connection with the Separation of GE Transportation from the remaining business of GE, GE will conduct the Internal Reorganization. The Transactions have been approved by the Wabtec Board and the GE Board.

In connection with the Direct Sale, certain assets of GE Transportation, potentially including the equity interests of certain pre-Transaction subsidiaries of GE that compose part of GE Transportation, will be sold to Direct Sale Purchaser for a cash payment of $2.9 billion, and Direct Sale Purchaser will assume certain liabilities of GE Transportation in connection with this purchase. Thereafter, GE will transfer the SpinCo Business to SpinCo and its subsidiaries (to the extent not already held by SpinCo and its subsidiaries) in the SpinCo Transfer, and SpinCo will issue to GE additional shares of SpinCo common stock in the SpinCo Transfer. Following this issuance of additional SpinCo common stock to GE, GE will own 8,700,000,000 shares of SpinCo common stock, or such other amount as GE determines, subject to the consent of Wabtec not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, which will constitute all of the outstanding SpinCo common stock.

Following the Direct Sale and based on market conditions, corporate finance considerations and timing considerations, GE will distribute the Distribution Shares of SpinCo in a spin-off or a split-off transaction. Immediately after the Distribution and on the closing date of the Merger, Merger Sub will merge with and into SpinCo, whereby the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub will cease and SpinCo will continue as the surviving company and a wholly owned subsidiary of Wabtec. In the Merger, subject to adjustment in accordance with the Merger Agreement, each share of SpinCo common stock will be converted into the right to receive a number of shares of Wabtec common stock based on the exchange ratio set forth in the Merger Agreement, as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “The Merger Agreement—Merger Consideration.”

Upon consummation of the Merger and calculated based on Wabtec’s outstanding common stock immediately prior to the Merger on a fully-diluted, as-converted and as-exercised basis, 50.1% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock would be held collectively by GE and pre-Merger holders of GE common stock (with approximately 9.9% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock expected to be held by GE) and 49.9% of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock would be held by pre-Merger Wabtec stockholders. The shares held by GE will be subject to GE’s obligations under (x) the Tax Matters Agreement to sell a number of shares of Wabtec common stock within two years of the Distribution Date (as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Other Agreements—Tax Matters Agreement”) and (y) the Shareholders Agreement to sell, subject to limited exceptions, all of the shares of Wabtec common stock GE beneficially owns within three years of the closing date of the Merger and prior thereto, to vote all of such shares in the proportion required under the Shareholders Agreement (as described in the section of this prospectus-information statement entitled “Other Agreements—Shareholders Agreement”). GE has the right to increase the percentage of the outstanding shares of Wabtec common stock to be held by pre-Merger GE stockholders (subject to a corresponding reduction in the percentage held by GE).

The estimated total value of the consideration to be paid by Wabtec in the Transactions is subject to the market price of shares of Wabtec common stock at the date of closing. Using Wabtec’s closing stock price on the NYSE as of November 9, 2018, the total value of the consideration for the Transactions would be approximately $11.9 billion, including the Direct Sale Purchase Price, contingent consideration, assumed debt and net of cash acquired. The following chart illustrates the impact of a 10% change in Wabtec’s stock price on the transaction purchase price and estimated goodwill (in millions):

| Purchase Price | Estimated Goodwill
As presented in the Pro Forma Combined results | $ | 11,901.1 |  | $ | 6,847.7 |
10% Increase in Wabtec Common Stock Price | $ | 12,757.7 |  | $ | 7,704.3 |
10% Decrease in Wabtec Common Stock Price | $ | 11,044.4 |  | $ | 5,991.0 |

TABLE OF CONTENTS

| 2. | Basis of presentation

The Transactions have been accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 805, Business Combinations. As the acquirer for accounting purposes, Wabtec has estimated the fair value of GE Transportation’s assets acquired and liabilities assumed and conformed the accounting policies of GE Transportation to its own accounting policies.

The pro forma purchase price allocation is subject to change based on the market price of Wabtec common stock at the time of the Merger, finalization of purchase price adjustments and completion of Wabtec management’s assessment of the fair values of the assets and liabilities acquired. Wabtec has not completed the final valuation necessary to determine the acquisition date fair market value of GE Transportation’s net assets. As more information becomes available, Wabtec will complete a more detailed review of the preliminary allocation of the purchase price to reflect the acquisition date fair value of those assets and liabilities. As a result of that review, more information could become available that, when analyzed, could have a material impact on the Pro Forma Statements.

Estimated remaining transaction costs for Wabtec and GE Transportation are reflected as an adjustment to cash and retained earnings in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet. Estimated remaining transaction costs for Wabtec and GE Transportation have not been reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income on the basis that these expenses are directly related to the Transactions but are nonrecurring in nature. Total estimated transaction costs for Wabtec and GE Transportation are approximately $100 million. Certain of GE Transportation’s transaction costs will be borne by GE.

In addition, Wabtec expects to record post-combination compensation expense related to the acceleration of unvested stock compensation awards and other employee compensation arrangements directly related to the Merger. This amount is excluded from the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of income because it does not have a continuing impact on operations. At this point in time Wabtec is unable to provide a reasonable estimate of the total compensation expense related to the merger; therefore, no adjustment has been recorded to retained earnings in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet.

| 3. | Preliminary purchase price allocation

The Transactions have been accounted for as a business combination in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ASC 805, Business Combinations. Under the acquisition method of accounting, Wabtec allocated purchase price to the tangible and intangible net assets acquired pursuant to the Direct Sale and the Merger based on the preliminary estimated fair values as of the assumed date of the Merger.

Wabtec has performed a preliminary valuation analysis of the fair market value of GE Transportation’s assets and liabilities. The following table summarizes the allocation of the preliminary purchase price as of the assumed date of the Merger (in millions):

Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 0.0 |
Accounts receivable |  | 608.8 |
Inventories |  | 899.0 |
Other current assets |  | 166.6 |
Property, plant and equipment |  | 1,184.8 |
Goodwill |  | 6,847.7 |
Trade names |  | 300.0 |
Intellectual property |  | 600.0 |
Backlog |  | 2,000.0 |
Customer relationships |  | 700.0 |
Other noncurrent assets |  | 218.7 |
Total assets acquired |  | 13,525.6 |
Current liabilities |  | (1,547.8 | )
Contingent consideration |  | (434.7 | )
Other noncurrent liabilities |  | (100.7 | )
Total liabilities assumed |  | (2,083.2 | )
Net assets acquired | $ | 11,442.4 |
Noncontrolling interest acquired | $ | (34.3 | )

TABLE OF CONTENTS

This preliminary purchase price allocation has been used to prepare pro forma adjustments in the Pro Forma Statements. The final purchase price allocation will be determined when Wabtec has completed the detailed valuations and necessary calculations. The final allocation could differ materially from the preliminary allocation used in the pro forma adjustments. The final allocation may include (1) changes in fair values of property, plant and equipment, (2) changes in allocations to intangible assets such as trade names, backlog, intellectual property, and customer relationships as well as goodwill and (3) other changes to assets and liabilities.

| 4. | Financing transactions

Wabtec and the other Borrowers entered into the Credit Agreement on June 8, 2018, which includes (i) a $1.2 billion Revolving Credit Facility, (ii) a $350.0 million Refinancing Term Loan and (iii) a $400.0 million Delayed Draw Term Loan. Wabtec also obtained Bridge Commitments in respect of the Bridge Loan Facility in an amount not to exceed $2.5 billion. On September 14, 2018, in accordance with the Commitment Letter, the Bridge Commitments were permanently reduced to $0 in connection with Wabtec’s issuance of $500 million aggregate principal amount of the Floating Rate Notes, $750 million aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Notes and $1.25 billion aggregate principal amount of the 2028 Notes. Wabtec will use funds available under the Delayed Draw Term Loan and the proceeds from the issuance of the New Wabtec Notes to pay the Direct Sale Purchase Price. Additionally, in the Merger, Wabtec will issue common stock valued (based on Wabtec’s closing stock price on the NYSE as of November 9, 2018) at approximately $8.6 billion.

| 5. | Tax benefits

As a result of the Transactions, Wabtec will be able to deduct for tax purposes the stepped-up basis of certain assets acquired including, but not limited to, property, plant and equipment, trade names, intellectual property, customer relationships, backlog and goodwill. Wabtec estimates the fair value of these tax benefits created in the Transactions to be approximately $1.5 billion. The final amount and timing of when these tax benefits may be realized could differ materially from the preliminary estimate.

Deferred taxes have not been reflected in the Pro Forma Statements because based on currently available information there are no significant book to tax differences on the acquired assets and assumed liabilities.

| 6. | Reclassification adjustments

Certain reclassifications have been made to the historical presentation of GE Transportation to conform to the historical financial statement presentation of Wabtec. Specifically, Wabtec presents Engineering expense and Amortization expense as separate captions within the statement of income, while GE Transportation presents these expenses within the Cost of goods sold caption within the statement of income. Reclassification adjustments have been made to conform the GE Transportation presentation of these expenses to the Wabtec financial statement presentation.

Additionally, certain other GE Transportation income statement and balance sheet accounts have been reclassified to conform to Wabtec’s financial statement presentation. Reclassifications have also been made to the historical presentation of Wabtec to disclose the amount of revenue and costs related to goods and services.

These reclassification adjustments had no net impact on Income from operations, Income from operations before income tax, Net income, Net income attributable to Wabtec stockholders, Total current assets, Total assets, Total current liabilities, Total liabilities, Total group shareholders’ equity, or Total equity.

| 7. | Pro forma adjustments

The pro forma adjustments are based on our preliminary estimates and assumptions that are subject to change. The following adjustments have been reflected in the Pro Forma Statements:

| a. | Reflects adjustments to GE Transportation’s historical financial statements to conform to Wabtec’s adoption of ASC 606 using the modified retrospective method. GE Transportation adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” using the full retrospective method. Additionally, reflects adjustments to GE Transportation’s historical financial statements to conform to Wabtec’s revenue recognition policy for long term service contracts. Other adjustments may be required to conform to Wabtec’s accounting policies, but they are not expected to be material. In addition, non-cash amortization expense from purchase price accounting will impact the results of operations.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

| b. | Represents the change in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash resulting from the following adjustments directly related to the Transactions (in millions):

| As of September 30, 2018
Additional new debt | $ | 890.0 |
Deferred issuance costs on new debt |  | (0.5 | )
Direct Sale Purchase Price payment from restricted cash |  | (1,724.0 | )
Direct Sale Purchase Price payment from cash and cash equivalents |  | (1,176.0 | )
Settlement of GE Transportation loans payable |  | (65.1 | )
Additional Transaction costs to be paid at closing |  | (8.4 | )
Pro forma decrease in cash and cash equivalents | $ | (2,084.0 | )

| c. | Represents additional borrowings of $890.0 million, net of deferred issuance costs of $0.5 million, to finance the Direct Sale Purchase Price.

| d. | Reflects the adjustment of $284.3 million to increase the basis in the acquired property, plant and equipment to estimated fair value and eliminates GE Transportation’s historical Accumulated depreciation of $1,057.7 million against property, plant and equipment. The estimated useful lives range from three to forty years. The fair value and useful life calculations are preliminary and subject to change after Wabtec finalizes its review of the specific types, nature, age, condition and location of GE Transportation’s property, plant and equipment. The following table summarizes the changes in the estimated depreciation expense (in millions):

| Year Ended December 31, 2017 | Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018
Estimated depreciation expense | $ | 131.3 |  | $ | 98.5 |
Historical depreciation expense |  | (112.3 | ) |  | (84.3 | )
Pro forma increase in depreciation expense | $ | 19.0 |  | $ | 14.2 |

For the year ended December 31, 2017, $13.4 million and $5.6 million of depreciation expense is included in Cost of goods sold and Cost of services sold, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, $9.6 million and $4.6 million of depreciation expense is included in Cost of goods sold and Cost of services sold, respectively. In addition, for the year ended December 31, 2017 and the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the adjustment with respect to Cost of goods sold also reflects the impact on Cost of goods sold in the amount of $49.9 million and $40.9 million, respectively, of eliminating sales between Wabtec and GE Transportation, which will be considered intercompany sales following the consummation of the Transactions.

| e. | Reflects the adjustment of historical intangible assets acquired by Wabtec to their estimated fair values. As part of the preliminary valuation analysis, Wabtec identified intangible assets, including trade names, intellectual property, backlog and customer relationships. The fair value of identifiable intangible assets is determined primarily using the “income approach,” which requires a forecast of expected future cash flows related to these intangibles.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of GE Transportation’s identifiable intangible assets, their estimated useful lives and their amortization on a linear basis (in millions):

|  |  | Amortization
| Estimated Fair Value | Estimated Useful Life in Years | Year Ended December 31, 2017 | Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018
Trade names | $ | 300.0 |  |  | 9 |  | $ | 33.3 |  | $ | 25.0 |
Intellectual property |  | 600.0 |  |  | 12 |  |  | 50.0 |  |  | 37.5 |
Backlog |  | 2,000.0 |  |  | 20 |  |  | 100.0 |  |  | 75.0 |
Customer relationships |  | 700.0 |  |  | 20 |  |  | 35.0 |  |  | 26.3 |
| $ | 3,600.0 |  |  |  |  | $ | 218.3 |  | $ | 163.8 |
Historical amortization expense |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | (71.7 | ) |  | (34.3 | )
Pro forma increase in amortization expense |  |  |  |  |  |  | $ | 146.6 |  | $ | 129.5 |

TABLE OF CONTENTS

| f. | Reflects adjustment to remove GE Transportation’s historical goodwill of $282.6 million and record goodwill associated with the Transactions of $6,847.7 million as shown in Note 3.

| g. | Reflects the adjustment for the settlement of GE Transportation’s loans payable to GE affiliates outside of GE Transportation in the amount of $65.1 million which will be settled prior to the consummation of the Transactions.

| h. | Reflects adjustment to eliminate GE Transportation’s historical deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities in the amount of $55.1 million and $203.2 million, respectively.

| i. | Represents the estimated fair value of contingent consideration of $434.7 million related to payment of a fixed amount, $470.0 million, to GE which is directly related to the timing of tax benefits expected to be realized subsequent to the Transactions. $82.1 million of the total contingent consideration is classified in Other accrued liabilities and $352.6 million is classified in Other long term liabilities.

| j. | Reflects the income tax effect of pro forma adjustments based on an estimated combined tax rate of 29.5% and 23.6% for the year ended December 31, 2017 and the nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively.

| k. | Represents the net increase to interest expense resulting from interest on the assumed $2.9 billion of new debt to finance the Direct Share Purchase Price and other interest adjustments directly related to the Transactions, as follows (in millions):

| Year Ended December 31, 2017 | Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018
Interest expense on new debt | $ | 122.4 |  | $ | 91.8 |
Elimination of interest expense on Bridge Commitments |  | 0.0 |  |  | (14.8 | )
Elimination of interest on retired GET debt |  | (4.8 | ) |  | (3.9 | )
Accretion of contingent consideration |  | 8.8 |  |  | 6.6 |
Amortization of new debt issuance costs |  | 4.0 |  |  | 2.9 |
Pro forma adjustments to interest expense | $ | 130.4 |  | $ | 82.6 |

The effect of a 1/8 percent variance in the assumed interest rate related to the new debt would impact pro forma interest expense by approximately $4.2 million and $3.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 and the nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively.

| l. | Represents the estimated adjustment to step up GE Transportation’s inventory to a fair value of approximately $899.0 million, an increase of $83.0 million from the carrying value. The fair value calculation is preliminary and subject to change. The fair value was determined based on the estimated selling price of the inventory less the remaining manufacturing and selling costs and a normal profit margin on those manufacturing and selling efforts. After the consummation of the Transactions, the step-up in inventory fair value of $74.0 million will increase cost of sales over approximately 12 months as the inventory is sold. This increase is not reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of income because it does not have a continuing impact.

| m. | Represents the elimination of the historical equity of GE Transportation and the issuance of 98.4 million shares of Wabtec common stock as consideration in the Merger resulting in an adjustment to Common stock and Additional paid-in capital of $1.0 million and $8,565.3 million, respectively.

| n. | Represents the elimination of transaction costs of $76.8 million directly related to the Transactions which will not have a recurring impact on operations.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires Wabtec’s directors and executive officers to file reports of beneficial ownership and changes in beneficial ownership of Wabtec stock. Directors and officers must furnish Wabtec with copies of these reports. Based on these copies and directors’ and executive officers’ representations, Wabtec believes all directors and executive officers complied with the requirements of Section 16(a) for the year ended December 31, 2017 except that, due to administrative error, each executive officer was late in the reporting of the withholding of shares to cover tax obligations related to the vesting of shares of Wabtec Restricted Stock in March 2017.

COMPARISON OF RIGHTS OF STOCKHOLDERS BEFORE AND AFTER THE TRANSACTIONS

Each of Wabtec and SpinCo is a Delaware corporation and subject to the provisions of the DGCL. GE is a New York corporation and subject to New York law, including the New York Business Corporation Law (the “NYBCL”). The rights of GE stockholders are governed by GE’s restated certificate of incorporation, as amended by the certificate of amendment, dated December 2, 2015, as further amended by the certificate of amendment, dated January 19, 2016, and as further amended by the certificate of change of GE, dated September 1, 2016 (the “GE Charter”), and GE’s by-laws, as amended and restated on June 9, 2017 (the “GE Bylaws”). The rights of the Wabtec stockholders are governed by the Wabtec Charter and the Wabtec Bylaws.

Following the Merger, GE stockholders will continue to own the shares of GE common stock that such holders owned prior to the Merger, subject to the same rights as prior to the Separation, the Distribution and the Merger, except that their shares of GE common stock will represent an interest in GE that no longer reflects the ownership and operation of GE Transportation. In addition, GE stockholders entitled to shares of SpinCo common stock in the Distribution will also own shares of Wabtec common stock after the Merger. Following the Merger, Wabtec stockholders will continue to own the shares of Wabtec common stock that such holders owned prior to the Merger, subject to the same rights as prior to the Separation, the Distribution and the Merger, except that their shares of Wabtec common stock will represent an interest in Wabtec that also reflects the ownership and operation of GE Transportation. In addition, if approved by Wabtec stockholders, the Wabtec Charter will be amended pursuant to the terms of the proposed Wabtec Charter Amendment.

The following description summarizes the material differences between the rights associated with GE common stock and Wabtec common stock that may affect GE stockholders who receive shares of Wabtec common stock in connection with the Distribution and the Merger. Since Wabtec stockholders will not receive additional shares of Wabtec common stock in connection with the Merger, the rights of such stockholders with respect to their shares of Wabtec common stock will not be impacted by the Merger. Although Wabtec and GE believe that this summary covers the material differences between the rights of the two groups of stockholders, this summary may not contain all of the information that is important to you and does not purport to be a complete discussion of stockholders’ rights. The identification of specific differences is not intended to indicate that other differences do not exist.

You are urged to read carefully the relevant provisions of the DGCL and the NYBCL, as well as the GE Charter, the GE Bylaws, the Wabtec Charter and the Wabtec Bylaws, copies of which have been filed with the SEC. The Wabtec Charter and the Wabtec Bylaws are incorporated by reference into this prospectus-information statement. See “Where You Can Find More Information; Incorporation By Reference.”

Under the Wabtec Charter and the Wabtec Bylaws, the Wabtec Board is expressly authorized to alter, amend or repeal the Wabtec Bylaws or adopt new bylaws.

Authorized but Unissued Shares

Wabtec’s authorized but unissued shares of common stock and preferred stock under the Wabtec Charter are available for future issuance without the approval of Wabtec stockholders. Wabtec may use additional shares for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public offerings to raise additional capital, corporate acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued shares of common stock and preferred stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of Wabtec by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.

Limited Liability of Directors and Officers

As permitted by the DGCL, the Wabtec Charter provides that no Wabtec director shall be personally liable to Wabtec or any of its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of a fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (1) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to Wabtec or its stockholders, (2) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (3) pursuant to Section 174 of the DGCL or (4) for any transactions from which a director derived an improper personal benefit.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

GE, SpinCo, Wabtec and certain of their respective subsidiaries, in each case as applicable, have entered into or before the consummation of the Transactions, will enter into, ancillary agreements relating to the Transactions and various interim and on-going relationships between GE, SpinCo, Wabtec and certain of their respective subsidiaries. See “Other Agreements.”

The Transaction—Interests of Wabtec’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Transaction

Wabtec directors and executive officers have financial interests in the Transactions that are different from, or in addition to, the interests of Wabtec stockholders generally. The members of the Wabtec Board were aware of and considered these interests, among other matters, in deciding to approve the terms of the Merger Agreement and the Transactions, including the Merger, and in recommending to Wabtec stockholders that they vote to approve the Share Issuance and the Wabtec Charter Amendment.

Interests of Wabtec’s Directors in the Transaction

The directors of Wabtec immediately prior to the consummation of the Merger are generally expected to be the directors of Wabtec immediately after the consummation of the Merger (although the size of the Wabtec Board will be increased to include three additional independent directors to be designated by GE, effective at the time of closing of the Merger). The directors of Wabtec would be entitled to accelerated vesting of certain equity incentive awards upon the consummation of the Merger.

Interests of Wabtec’s Executive Officers in the Transaction

The executive officers of Wabtec immediately prior to consummation of the Merger are generally expected to be the executive officers of Wabtec immediately following consummation of the Merger, with Albert J. Neupaver remaining as Wabtec’s executive chairman and Raymond T. Betler remaining as Wabtec’s president and CEO. Following consummation of the Transactions, Stéphane Rambaud-Measson will become president and CEO of Wabtec’s Transit Segment and Rafael O. Santana, president and CEO of GE Transportation, will become president and CEO of Wabtec’s Freight Segment. In addition, the executive officers of Wabtec would be entitled to accelerated vesting of certain equity incentive awards upon the consummation of the Merger, and certain executive officers would be entitled to severance benefits upon a qualifying termination of employment in connection with the Merger that are greater than the severance benefits to which they are entitled without regard to the consummation of the Merger. For a further description and quantification of the benefits that Wabtec executive officers may receive as a result of these interests, including these enhanced severance benefits as well as the accelerated vesting of equity incentive awards in connection with the Merger, see “The Transactions—Interests of Wabtec’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Transactions.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors
General Electric Company:

Opinion on the Combined Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying combined statement of financial position of GE Transportation (a carve-out business of General Electric Company) (the Company) as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the related combined statements of earnings, comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2017, and the related notes (collectively, the combined financial statements). In our opinion, the combined financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2017, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Basis for Opinion

These combined financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these combined financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB and in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the combined financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the combined financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the combined financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the combined financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2017.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

| NOTE 1 | DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS

GE Transportation (the “Business”, “GET”, “our” or “we”) is a carve-out business of General Electric Company (“GE” or “Parent”). We are a leading global provider of products and solutions to transportation, logistics and other industrial markets. We design, engineer and manufacture diesel-electric locomotives, supply associated aftermarket parts and services and provide digital solutions. Our culture of innovation and differentiated aftermarket solutions has allowed us to build a leading global installed base of diesel-electric locomotives, significant contracted services backlog and longstanding customer relationships. Our products and services are critical to our customers’ operating and financial success and enable them to operate with reliability and efficiency. Leveraging our heritage in diesel-electric locomotives, we have continued to innovate to expand our technologies into new products, end markets and logistics applications. Leveraging our core competencies in locomotive manufacturing, we produce electric motors and premium propulsion systems for mining, marine, stationary power and drilling applications. We have combined industry leadership with engineering and software capabilities to build a digital business that is leading the transformation of the transportation and mining industries. We employ approximately 9,000 employees and serve customers across approximately 60 countries.

The Business is comprised of three reportable segments, which reflect the way performance is assessed and resources are allocated.

EQUIPMENT

Our Equipment segment is a leading producer of diesel-electric locomotives serving freight and passenger railroads. We produce mission-critical products and solutions that help railroads reduce operating costs, decrease fuel use, minimize downtime and comply with stringent emissions standards. In addition to locomotives, we also produce a range of engines, electric motors and premium propulsion systems used in mining, marine, stationary power and drilling applications. This segment represents approximately 45%, 53% and 59% of annual revenues in the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

SERVICES

Our Services segment is responsible for supporting railroads in the operation of their fleet of GE Transportation locomotives in an efficient manner throughout their entire lifecycle in terms of safety, availability, reliability and economic performance. We provide aftermarket parts and services to our global installed base, including predictive maintenance, regular maintenance, and unscheduled maintenance and overhaul services for locomotives. Our offerings include supply of parts, technical support and locomotive modernizations. Commercially, locomotive maintenance can be contracted on a fully transactional basis or through multi-year contracts (Contractual Service Agreements or “CSAs”), where we assume certain service activities, and the related performance risks, in return for fixed and variable payments based on underlying utilization of the asset(s) covered. This segment represents approximately 48%, 41% and 37% of annual revenues in the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

DIGITAL

Our Digital segment combines decades of industrial leadership with cutting-edge data science and analytics acumen to create an efficient, productive and reliable digital-rail ecosystem – from shipper to receiver – from ports to intermodal terminals – main line locomotives and railcars – to train yards and operation centers. Digital includes transport logistics, transport intelligence, network optimization, train performance and digital mine. Our Digital segment develops and works with our customers to implement a comprehensive set of software-enabled solutions that deliver significant benefits across the transportation and mining landscape. Across global freight and mining industries, productivity and efficiency gains – and new business opportunities – will come largely from digital innovation. Digital tools will improve efficiency of existing assets, connect disparate processes, optimize key chokepoints and entire systems, and open up value across freight and mining. In industries

characterized by in-house and boutique solution providers, the breadth and market presence of our Digital solutions have positioned us as a key player for digital innovation. This segment represents approximately 7%, 6% and 4% of annual revenues in the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

On May 21, 2018, GE and Westinghouse Air Brake Technologies (“Wabtec”) Corporation announced that they had entered into a definitive agreement whereby Wabtec acquired the Business (the “Proposed Transaction”).

Under the agreement, which has been approved by the Boards of Directors of Wabtec and GE, GE will receive $2.9 billion in cash at closing. GE shareholders will own approximately 40.2%, GE will own approximately 9.9%, and Wabtec shareholders will own approximately 49.9% of the combined company on a fully diluted basis. The transaction is expected to be tax free to the companies' respective shareholders.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

These combined financial statements were prepared on a stand-alone basis derived from the consolidated financial statements and accounting records of GE. These combined financial statements as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 and for each of the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015 are presented as carve-out financial statements and reflect the combined historical results of operations, comprehensive income, financial position and cash flows of the Business, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). Refer below to Recent Accounting Pronouncements Reflected in These Combined Financial Statements for a summary of recent accounting pronouncements that were adopted and applied in these combined financial statements.

These combined financial statements consolidate all majority-owned subsidiaries. The noncontrolling interests have been shown in the Combined Statement of Financial Position as Equity attributable to noncontrolling interests.

All intercompany balances and transactions within the Business have been eliminated in these combined financial statements. As described in Note 4 Related Party Transactions, certain transactions between the Business and GE have been included in these combined financial statements.

The Combined Statement of Financial Position reflects, among other things, all of the assets and liabilities of GE and the Business that are specifically identifiable as being directly attributable to the Business, including Net parent investment as a component of equity. Net parent investment represents GE’s historical investment in the Business and includes accumulated net earnings attributable to GE, the net effect of transactions with GE and GE entities, and cost allocations from GE that were not historically allocated to the Business.

GE uses a centralized approach to cash management and financing of its operations. These arrangements are not reflective of the manner in which the Business would have financed its operations had it been a stand-alone business separate from GE during the periods presented. Cash pooling arrangements are excluded from the asset and liability balances in the Combined Statement of Financial Position. These amounts have instead been reported as Net parent investment as a component of equity.

GE and its affiliates provide a variety of services to the Business. The Business may also sell products in the ordinary course of business to GE and its affiliates. The Combined Statement of Earnings includes expense allocations for services and certain support functions (“GE Corporate Overhead”) that are provided on a centralized basis within GE such as legal, business development, human resources, corporate audit, treasury and various other GE corporate functions that are routinely allocated to the Business and reflected in the Combined Statement of Earnings in Selling, general and administrative expenses. In addition to GE Corporate Overhead allocations, Selling, general and administrative expenses that would have been incurred in the ordinary course of business if the Business operated as a stand-alone company, such as compensation and benefits for employees of the Business, were included based on either specific identification of direct expenses or an allocation using an approach related to the nature of the item (e.g., external revenue or headcount).

Where allocations of amounts were necessary, the Business believes the allocation of these amounts were determined on a reasonable basis, reflecting all of the costs of GE Transportation and consistently applied in the

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

periods presented. These allocated amounts, however, are not necessarily indicative of the actual amounts that might have been incurred or realized had the Business operated as a separate stand-alone entity during the periods presented. Consequently, these combined financial statements do not necessarily represent the results the Business would have achieved if the Business had operated as a separate stand-alone entity from GE during the periods presented.

| NOTE 2 | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

| (A) | ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

The preparation of combined financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of any contingent assets or liabilities at the date of these combined financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions and information that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Estimates and assumptions about future events and their effects cannot be perceived with certainty, and accordingly, these estimates may change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as our operating environment changes. While the Business believes that the estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of these combined financial statements are appropriate, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Estimates are used for, but are not limited to, determining the following: estimates of variable revenues and/or costs on long-term revenue generating contracts, recoverability of long-lived assets and inventory, valuation of goodwill, useful lives used in depreciation and amortization, income taxes and related valuation allowances, accruals for contingencies including warranties, actuarial assumptions used to determine costs on employee benefit plans, valuation assumptions for long term stock-based compensation expense, valuation and recoverability of receivables, valuation of derivatives and the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in acquisitions.

Our revenue recognition on long-term CSAs requires estimates of both customer payments expected to be received over the contract term as well as the costs expected to be incurred to perform required maintenance services. We routinely review estimates under CSAs and regularly revise them to adjust for changes in outlook, however these estimates may materially vary from actual payments and costs incurred over the life of the contracts.

| (B) | FOREIGN CURRENCY

Certain of our international operations have determined that the local currency is the functional currency whereas others have determined the U.S. dollar is their functional currency. When the functional currency is not the US dollar, the Business translates assets and liabilities to their U.S. dollar equivalents using rates that approximate the exchange rates in effect at the Combined Statement of Financial Position date, and the Business translates functional currency income and expense amounts to their U.S. dollar equivalents using rates that approximate average exchange rates for the period. The U.S. dollar effects that arise from changing translation rates from functional currencies are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss in the Combined Statement of Financial Position.

Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions, such as those resulting from the settlement of monetary items in the non-functional currency and those resulting from remeasurements of monetary items, are included in Costs of revenues and Selling, general and administrative expenses. Gains (losses) of $26,177 thousand, $(18,735) thousand and $27,076 thousand were incurred in the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

| (C) | EQUITY-ACCOUNTED INVESTMENTS

Associated companies are entities in which we do not have a controlling financial interest, but over which we have significant influence, most often because we hold a voting interest of 20% to 50%. Associated companies are accounted for as equity method investments. Results of associated companies are presented on a one-line

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

basis. Investments in, and advances to, associated companies are presented in the caption Other assets in our Combined Statement of Financial Position. See Note 10 Other Assets. Income earned on these investments are presented in Other (expense) income in our Combined Statement of Earnings.

| (D) | ACQUISITIONS

Our combined financial statements include the operations of acquired businesses from the date of acquisition. The Business accounts for acquired businesses using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred. Any excess of the consideration transferred over the assigned values of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. When the Business acquires net assets that do not constitute a “business” as defined in U.S. GAAP, no goodwill is recognized.

Amounts recorded for acquisitions can result from a complex series of judgments about future events and uncertainties and can rely on estimates and assumptions. For information about the risks associated with estimates and assumptions, see Note 2(A) Estimates and Assumptions.

There were no significant acquisitions that were completed during the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015 that affected our combined financial statements. See Note 8 for information on changes in goodwill and intangible assets as a result of acquisitions.

| (E) | CASH AND EQUIVALENTS

Marketable securities with original maturities of three months or less are included in Cash and equivalents. Cash held in commingled accounts with our Parent, or its affiliates, are presented within Net parent investment.

As of December 31, 2017, $80,228 thousand of Cash and equivalents were held in bank accounts and cannot be released, transferred or otherwise converted into a currency that is regularly transacted internationally, due to lack of market liquidity, capital controls or similar monetary or exchange limitations limiting the flow of capital out of the jurisdiction.

| (F) | CURRENT RECEIVABLES, NET

Current receivables, net are recorded at the invoiced amount, less an allowance for doubtful accounts, and do not bear interest. The Business maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses inherent in our accounts receivable portfolio. We establish an allowance for doubtful accounts based on various factors including the payment history and financial condition of our debtors and the economic environment. In addition, we consider current receivables aging, unless a specific reserve is established when customers are in bankruptcy or involved in legal disputes about amounts owed. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. See Note 5 Current Receivables, net.

| (G) | CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

For the year ended December 31, 2017, one customer accounted for more than 10% of our combined revenues. For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, three customers each accounted for more than 10% of our combined revenues Additionally, two customers accounted for approximately 14% and 13%, respectively, of gross customer receivables as of December 31, 2017 and one customer accounted for approximately 24% of gross customer receivables as of December 31, 2016. Although this concentration affects our overall exposure to credit risk, our customer receivables are spread over a diverse group of customers across many countries, which mitigates this risk. We perform periodic credit evaluations of our customers’ financial conditions, including monitoring our customers’ payment history and current credit worthiness to manage this risk. We do not generally require collateral in support of our customer receivables, but we may require payment in advance or security in the form of a letter of credit or a bank guarantee. Our customer receivables do not represent a significant concentration of credit risk as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 due to the wide variety of customers and markets into which our equipment and services are sold and their dispersion across geographic regions. See Note 5 Current Receivables, net.

| (H) | CURRENT RECEIVABLES FACTORING PROGRAM

Some of the Business's accounts receivables are legally transferred through current receivables factoring programs established for GE and various GE subsidiaries administered by an operation of GE Capital called Working Capital Solutions (“WCS”). GE Transportation participates in three different WCS Accounts Receivable factoring programs: GE Accounts Receivable (“GEAR”), On Book, and Emerging Market Debtor Pool (“EMDP”). GE Transportation also utilizes external syndication, which is facilitated either internally or by WCS.

Under the factoring programs, WCS performs a risk analysis and allocates a nonrecourse credit limit for each customer. If the customer exceeds this credit limit, then the remaining amount is either factored with recourse or is not factored as certain jurisdictions do not allow factoring with recourse.

All transfers of receivables qualify as true sales in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 860, Transfers and Servicing and are therefore derecognized from our Combined Statement of Financial Position. These factoring arrangements are for goods and services sold by GET to third parties in the ordinary course of business, and cash inflows received as part of the transaction are recorded as an operating cash inflow. See Note 4 Related Party Transactions.

The Business does not have any material off-balance-sheet credit exposure related to our customers. See Note 11 Borrowings.

| (I) | INVENTORIES

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable values. Generally, production inventory including raw materials and work in process and finished goods inventory is valued at cost using a first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) basis.

As necessary, we record provisions and write-downs for excess, slow moving and obsolete inventory. To determine these amounts, we regularly review inventory quantities on hand and compare them to estimates of historical utilization, future product demand, market conditions, production requirements and technological developments.

Effective January 1, 2018, we voluntarily changed the cost flow assumption of the U.S. inventories that were previously measured on a last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) basis to FIFO basis. We believe the FIFO method is a preferable measure for our inventories as it is expected to better reflect the current value of inventory reported in the Combined Statement of Financial Position, improve the matching of cost of goods sold with related revenue and provide for greater consistency and uniformity across our operations with respect to the method of inventory valuation. The Business applied this change in accounting principle retrospectively to all prior periods presented herein in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections.

See Note 6 Inventories.

| (J) | RESTRUCTURING COSTS

Costs of restructuring are accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC 420, Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations, ASC 712, Compensation - Nonretirement Postemployment Benefits and other related pronouncements. ASC 420 requires that a liability for costs associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred. ASC 712 requires employers to recognize the obligation to provide postemployment benefits if all of the following conditions are met: (a) if the obligation is attributable to employees' services already rendered, (b) employees' rights to those benefits accumulate or vest, (c) payment of the benefits is probable, and (d) the amount of the benefits can be reasonably estimated. If those four conditions are not met, the employer should account for postemployment benefits when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. See Note 18 Restructuring and Other Activities for additional discussion.

| (K) | SEGMENT REPORTING

We conduct our operations through three operating and reportable segments, which are generally organized based on product lines. Operating segments represent components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the chief operating decision maker in determining how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The chief operating decision maker uses a variety of measures to assess the performance of the Business as a whole, depending on the nature of the activity. Operating activities are managed through three reportable segments: Equipment, Services and Digital. The performance of these three segments is principally measured based on revenues and operating profit. See Note 19 Segment Information and Major Customers.

| (L) | PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Property, plant and equipment (“P&E”) is stated at cost and is depreciated over its estimated economic life. Subsequently, property, plant and equipment is measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

P&E includes rotable assets used to support sales in our Services segment and are presented in the line item Machinery and equipment within P&E. These assets represent already-repaired equipment exchanged for equipment to be serviced, which in turn is repaired and kept for another exchange. Repair costs on rotable assets are expensed as incurred.

The Business incurs maintenance costs on our major equipment. Repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. See Note 7 Property, Plant and Equipment, net.

| (M) | GOODWILL

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired in a business combination. Goodwill is assigned to specific reporting units, and the Business tests goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level at least annually or more frequently when facts or circumstances indicate an impairment may have occurred. A reporting unit is an operating segment, or one level below that operating segment (the component level), if discrete financial information is prepared and regularly reviewed by segment management. The Business also tests goodwill for impairment when an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. The Business uses quantitative assessment or qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If the Business chooses to perform a qualitative assessment and concludes it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, a further quantitative fair value test is performed. The Business recognizes an impairment charge if the carrying amount of the reporting unit's goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill based on the results of our quantitative tests. The market and income approach are used for estimating the fair values for our reporting units. See Note 8 Goodwill and Intangible Assets.

| (N) | INTANGIBLE ASSETS, NET

All intangible assets of the Business other than goodwill are subject to amortization. The cost of intangible assets is amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. See Note 8 Goodwill and Intangible Assets.

INTERNAL USE SOFTWARE

Internal use software is software that is internally developed, purchased or modified to meet internal needs and for which no substantive plan exists to sell, lease or otherwise market the software externally. Software projects which meet this scope include internal software we use in running our business and software products developed to support certain revenue streams in our Digital segment (e.g., SaaS offerings). All costs associated with project tasks classified in the preliminary project development or post-implementation/operation stage are expensed as incurred. Capitalization of application development stage costs begin after both of the following occur:

F-13

TABLE OF CONTENTS

GE Transportation
(A carve-out business of General Electric Company)
NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(a) preliminary project development stage is completed, and (b) management authorizes and commits to funding the software project, and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used for the purpose for which it was intended. Capitalization ceases when the project is substantially complete. Capitalized amounts are generally amortized using the straight-line method over the asset’s estimated economic life, which in most cases is five years, but does not exceed ten years.

EXTERNAL USE SOFTWARE

External use software is software that is (a) intended to be sold, licensed or marketed to our customers, or is (b) embedded and integral to our tangible products for which research and development has been completed. Costs that are related to the conceptual formulation and design of software are expensed as incurred. Costs that are incurred after technological feasibility has been established are capitalized as an intangible asset. Capitalized costs for software to be sold, leased, or otherwise marketed are amortized on an individual product basis. The annual amortization is the greater of the amount computed using (a) the ratio of current year gross revenues for a product to the total of current year and anticipated future gross revenues for that product, or (b) the straight-line method over the remaining estimated life of the product including the current year.

The Business performs reviews to ensure that unamortized capitalized software program costs remain recoverable from future revenue. See Note 8 Goodwill and Intangible Assets.

| (O) | TRADE PAYABLES ACCELERATED PAYMENT PROGRAM

The Business’s North American operations, and certain of its suppliers, participate in accounts payable programs with GE Capital. Supplier invoices may be settled early by GE Capital to obtain early pay cash discounts. The Business settles its obligations by reimbursing GE Capital on the invoice’s contractual due date. As the payables in the Trade Payables Services (“TPS”) program relate to operating activities incurred in the ordinary course of business and retain the principal characteristics of a trade payable, the results of this program are included within operating activities in our Combined Statement of Cash Flows. See Note 4 Related Party Transactions.

| (P) | RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS (“R&D”)

The Business conducts R&D activities to continually enhance our existing products and services, develop new products and services to meet our customer’s changing needs and requirements and address new market opportunities. R&D costs are expensed as incurred and amounted to $113,087 thousand, $175,020 thousand and $214,267 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and are included in Costs of revenues. This includes direct R&D expenses as well as expenses incurred with the use of services from GE Global Research. See Note 4 Related Party Transactions.

| (Q) | PENSION AND POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS

Certain employees and retirees of the Business participate in pension and postretirement benefit plans sponsored by GE. These plans are accounted for in accordance with ASC Sub topic 715-80, Compensation – Retirement Benefits: Multiemployer Plans and Subtopic 715-20, Compensation – Retirement Benefits: Defined Benefit Plans respectively. See Note 17 Pension and Postretirement Benefit Plans.

| (R) | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The following sections describe the valuation methodologies the Business uses to measure financial and non-financial instruments accounted for at fair value in accordance with the fair value hierarchy as set forth in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures.

For financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, fair value is the price the Business would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction with a market participant at the measurement date. In the absence of active markets for the identical assets or liabilities, such measurements involve developing assumptions based on market observable data and, in the absence of such data, internal information that is consistent with what market participants would use in a hypothetical transaction that occurs at the measurement date.

Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our market assumptions. Preference is given to observable inputs. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:

| Level 1 - | Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

| Level 2 - | Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

| Level 3 - | Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable.

We maintain policies and procedures to value instruments using the best and most relevant data available. In addition, the Business performs reviews to assess the reasonableness of the valuations. This detailed review may include the use of a third-party valuation firm.

| (S) | RECURRING FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The following sections describe the valuation methodologies used to measure different financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS – GENERAL

Our financial instruments include trade receivables, trade payables, short and long-term debt and derivative financial instruments. The estimated fair value of our financial instruments as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 approximates their carrying value as reflected in our combined financial statements. See Note 5 Current Receivables, net, Note 9 Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets, Note 10 Other Assets, Note 11 Borrowings and Note 14 Other Current Liabilities and Other Liabilities.

DERIVATIVES

The Business uses closing prices for derivatives included in Level 1, which are traded either on exchanges or liquid over-the-counter markets. The majority of our derivatives are valued using internal models and are included in Level 2. Derivative assets and liabilities included in Level 2 are currency exchange contracts, foreign currency forward contracts, and commodity swap contracts.

All derivatives held as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 were valued using Level 2 inputs. See Note 2(W) Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.

There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 during the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.

| (T) | NON-RECURRING FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. These assets are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis, but are subject to fair value adjustments only in certain circumstances. These assets can include long-lived assets that have been reduced to fair value when they are held for sale, and equity method investments

F-15

TABLE OF CONTENTS

GE Transportation

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

and long-lived assets that are written down to fair value when they are impaired. Assets that are written down to fair value when impaired are not subsequently adjusted to fair value unless further impairment occurs. The following sections describe the valuation methodologies the Business uses to measure those assets not measured on an ongoing fair value basis.

The following sections describe the valuation methodologies the Business uses to measure those assets not measured on an ongoing fair value basis.

EQUITY METHOD INVESTMENTS

Equity method investments are valued using market observable data such as quoted prices when available. When market observable data is unavailable, investments are valued using a discounted cash flow model, comparative market multiples or a combination of both approaches as appropriate and other third-party pricing sources. These investments are included in Level 3.

LONG-LIVED ASSETS

Long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment and intangible assets subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Determining whether an impairment has occurred typically requires various estimates and assumptions, including determining which undiscounted cash flows are directly related to the potentially impaired asset, the useful life over which cash flows will occur, their amount and the asset's residual value, if any. In turn, measurement of an impairment loss requires a determination of fair value, which is based on the best information available. The required undiscounted cash flow estimates are derived from our historical experience and our internal business plans. To determine fair value, the Business uses quoted market prices when available, our internal cash flow estimates discounted at an appropriate discount rate, or independent appraisals, as appropriate. Fair values of long-lived assets are primarily derived internally and are based on observed sales transactions for similar assets. These assets are generally included in Level 3. See Note 18 Restructuring and Other activities for impairments recognized related to long-lived assets.

| (U) | INCOME TAXES

The Business is included in the consolidated U.S. federal, foreign and state income tax returns of GE, where applicable. The Business determines its current and deferred taxes based on the separate return method (i.e., as if the Business were a taxpayer separate from GE). All income taxes due to or due from the Business’s Parent that have not been settled or recovered by the end of the period are reflected in Note 13 Income Taxes as such balances will be maintained and settled. Any differences between actual amounts paid or received by the Business and taxes accrued under the separate return method have been reflected in Net parent investment.

The Business accounts for taxes under the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for temporary differences between the financial statement and tax return bases of assets and liabilities as well as from net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards, based on enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when taxes are actually paid or recovered and other provisions of the tax law. The effect of a change in tax laws or rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period in which such change is enacted. The Business currently intends to indefinitely reinvest earnings of our foreign subsidiaries with operations outside the U.S. and, accordingly, has not provided U.S. income tax on such earnings. Future tax benefits are recognized to the extent that realization of such benefits is more likely than not, and a valuation allowance is established for any portion of a deferred tax asset that management believes it is not more likely than not to be realized.

Significant judgment is required in determining our tax expense and in evaluating our tax positions, including evaluating uncertainties. The Business operates in approximately 60 countries and our tax filings are subject to audit by the tax authorities in the jurisdictions where business is conducted. These audits may result in assessments of additional taxes that are resolved with the tax authorities or through the courts. The Business has

F-16

TABLE OF CONTENTS

GE Transportation

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

provided for the amounts believed that will ultimately result from these proceedings. The Business recognizes uncertain tax positions that are “more likely than not” to be sustained if the relevant tax authority were to audit the position with full knowledge of all the relevant facts and other information. For those tax positions that meet this threshold, the Business measures the amount of tax benefit based on the largest amount of tax benefit that the Business has a greater than 50% chance of realizing in a final settlement with the relevant authority. The Business classifies interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions as interest expense and provision for income taxes, respectively, on the Combined Statement of Earnings. The effects of tax adjustments and settlements from taxing authorities are presented in these combined financial statements in the period they are recorded.

Due to the enactment of U.S. tax reform, repatriations of foreign earnings will generally be free of U.S. federal tax, but may incur other taxes, such as withholding or state taxes. Indefinite reinvestment is determined by management’s judgment about and intentions concerning the future operations of the Business. Most of these earnings have been reinvested in active non-U.S. business operations. At December 31, 2017, we have not changed our indefinite reinvestment decision as a result of U.S. tax reform, but will reassess this during the course of 2018; accordingly, we have not provided income tax on such earnings. It is not practicable to determine the income tax liability that would be payable if such earnings were not reinvested indefinitely.

Additionally, as part of U.S. tax reform, the U.S. has enacted a tax on “base eroding” payments from the U.S. and a minimum tax on foreign earnings (global intangible low-taxed income). Because aspects of the new minimum tax and the effect on our operations is uncertain and because aspects of the accounting rules associated with this provision have not been resolved, we have not made a provisional accrual for the deferred tax aspects of this provision and consequently have not made an accounting policy election on the deferred tax treatment of this tax.

| (V) | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from product warranties, claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs incurred in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred. See Note 15 Commitments and Contingencies.

| (W) | DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

Our business activities are conducted in diverse markets around the world. As a result, the Business is exposed to the impact of foreign currency exchange. See Note 4 Related Party Transactions. We use derivatives to manage a variety of risks, including risks related to commodity prices. The Business designates our derivative instruments as economic hedges and does not have any derivatives qualifying as hedges of fair value or cash flows. As the hedged item and the hedging derivative may not fully offset, there may be a net effect on earnings in each period due to differences in the timing of earnings recognition between the derivative and the hedged item. See Note 12 Derivatives and Hedging.

| (X) | RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS REFLECTED IN THESE COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As our combined financial statements will be distributed to users of our financial statements on a carve-out basis for the first time in 2018, we have applied the following new guidance for these combined financial statements.

REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

In May 2014, the FASB issued a new comprehensive set of revenue recognition principles (ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers) that supersedes most existing U.S. GAAP revenue recognition guidance (including ASC 605-35, Revenue Recognition - Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts). The new standard became effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. We have adopted the standard and applied it retrospectively to all periods presented. Refer to Note 3 Revenue Related to Contracts with Customers for more details.

F-17

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

CLASSIFICATION OF CERTAIN CASH RECEIPTS AND CASH PAYMENTS

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. The standard addresses the classification and presentation of eight specific cash flow items that currently result in diverse practices including the requirement to present cash receipts from a transferor’s beneficial interest in securitized trade receivables to be classified as cash inflows from investing activities. This pronouncement is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and is applied on a retrospective basis. The Business has adopted the new guidance and applied it retrospectively to all periods presented in the Combined Statement of Cash Flows. The impact of adopting this standard did not have an effect on the Combined Statement of Cash Flows.

IMPROVEMENTS TO EMPLOYEE SHARE-BASED PAYMENT ACCOUNTING

On September 30, 2016, the Business adopted ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which was intended to simplify several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the Combined Statement of Cash Flows. The Business adopted the standard on a prospective basis with the effect of adoption reflected for the interim periods after the year beginning January 1, 2016 as required by the standard. The primary effects of adoption were the recognition of excess tax benefits in our provision for income taxes rather than net parent investment and the reclassification of cash flows related to excess tax benefits from a financing activity to an operating activity for the periods beginning January 1, 2016. The Business will continue to estimate the number of awards that are expected to vest in our determination of the related periodic compensation cost. The impact of adopting this standard did not have a material effect on the provision for income taxes or the classification within the Combined Statement of Cash Flows.

IMPROVING THE PRESENTATION OF NET PERIODIC PENSION COST AND NET PERIODIC POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT COST

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, Compensation—Retirement Benefits (Topic 715), Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. This ASU requires an employer to report the service cost component of net periodic pension benefit cost in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period, with other cost components presented separately from the service cost component and outside of income from operations. Additionally, only the service cost component of net periodic pension benefit cost is eligible for capitalization when applicable. Provisions related to presentation of components of pension costs are to be applied retrospectively, while provisions related to cost capitalization must be applied prospectively. The provisions of this ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Business has adopted the new guidance and applied it retrospectively to all periods.

SIMPLIFYING OF THE MEASUREMENT OF INVENTORY

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330), Simplifying of the Measurement of Inventory, which requires inventory not measured using the (LIFO) or retail inventory method, to change the measurement principle for inventory from the lower of cost or market to lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. Currently, inventory measured using these methods is required to be subsequently measured at the lower of cost or market with market defined as replacement cost, net realizable value or net realizable value less a normal profit margin. This ASU eliminates the requirement to consider replacement cost or net realizable value less an approximately normal profit margin when measuring inventory. This pronouncement is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and is applied on a retrospective basis. The Business has adopted the new guidance and applied it retrospectively to all periods presented in the Combined Statement of Financial Position. The impact of adopting this standard did not have a material effect on the Combined Statement of Financial Position.

F-18

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SIMPLIFYING THE ACCOUNTING FOR MEASUREMENT-PERIOD ADJUSTMENTS

On January 1, 2016, we adopted ASU 2015-16, Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments, which eliminated the requirement for an acquirer in a business combination to account for measurement-period adjustments retrospectively. The Business will recognize measurement-period adjustments when amounts are determined.

BALANCE SHEET CLASSIFICATION OF DEFERRED TAXES

In November 2015, the FASB issued 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes. In order to simplify the presentation of deferred income taxes, this ASU requires that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. The current requirement that deferred tax liabilities and assets of a tax-paying component of an entity be offset and presented as a single amount is not affected by this amendment. This ASU is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and is applied on a retrospective basis. The Business has adopted the new guidance and applied it retrospectively to all periods presented in the Combined Statement of Financial Position.

| (Y) | OTHER RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (ASU 2016-02), creating ASC Subtopic 842, Leases. ASU 2016-02 sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both lessees and lessors. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to present a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability on the balance sheet. Lessor accounting is substantially unchanged compared to the current accounting guidance. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and for the interim and annual reporting periods thereafter, with early adoption permitted. The Business is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. This ASU provides a new framework that will assist in the evaluation of whether business combination transactions should be accounted as acquisition of a business or a group of assets, as well as specifying the minimum required inputs and processes necessary to be a business. The provisions of this ASU are effective for years beginning after December 15, 2017. Any future acquisitions and disposals will be accounted for under these provisions.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill. This ASU simplifies the measurement of goodwill impairment to a single-step test. The guidance removes step two of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation, and will now be the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. Under the revised guidance, failing step one will always result in goodwill impairment. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests beginning after December 15, 2019 and early adoption is permitted. The Business is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2017-04 on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, Accounting for Income Taxes: Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory, which amends existing guidance on income taxes to require the accounting for the income tax effects of intercompany sales and transfers of assets other than inventory when the transfer occurs. As a result, the tax expense from the intercompany sale of assets, other than inventory, and associated changes to deferred taxes will be recognized when the sale occurs even though the pre-tax effects of the transaction have not been recognized. The pronouncement is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted at the beginning of an annual period for which no financial statements have already been issued. This amendment is to be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Business will apply it on a modified retrospective basis.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The ASU introduces a new accounting model, the Current Expected Credit Losses model (CECL), which requires earlier recognition of credit losses, while also providing additional transparency about credit risk. The CECL model utilizes a lifetime expected credit loss measurement objective for the recognition of credit losses for loans and other receivables at the time the financial asset is originated or acquired. The expected credit losses are adjusted each period for changes in expected lifetime credit losses. This model replaces the multiple existing impairment models in current GAAP, which generally require that a loss be incurred before it is recognized. The new standard will also apply to receivables arising from revenue transactions such as contract assets and accounts receivables and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. We continue to evaluate the effect of the standard on our combined financial statements.

| NOTE 3 | REVENUE RELATED TO CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

ADOPTION OF TOPIC 606 REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

All periods presented in the combined financial statements are presented under the FASB’s new accounting standard codification Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers as we elected the full retrospective method of adoption. Changes in accounting on a retrospective basis requires entities to restate their financial information as if the new accounting was always followed unless it is impracticable to do so. Certain of our CSA terms exceed 20 years making it impractical to restate this selection of contracts since their inception due to data limitations. As a result, contract balances prior to January 1, 2010 for these contracts were unadjusted for the impacts of the new revenue standard. We adjusted these balances prospectively from January 1, 2010 following our new accounting policies and procedures under the new revenue standard.

For the purposes of the financial statement display of Revenues and Costs of revenues in our Combined Statement of Earnings, “goods” include all sales of tangible products, and “services” include all other sales, including other services activities.

PERFORMANCE OBLIGATION IDENTIFICATION

The Business recognizes revenue as it satisfies its performance obligations to our customers. A single contract may have multiple performance obligations comprising multiple promises to our customers. We determine our performance obligations based on our customer’s intended use of our products and services including considering whether we are providing a significant integration service on our customer’s behalf. Non-complex products principally result in each completed product being a separate performance obligation recognized at a point in time. Complex products or services principally result in a single performance obligation as our customer is either procuring a bundled offering that is managed or utilized on a combined basis (e.g., software development solutions in our digital business) or there are multiple complex goods or services in the contract, which are substantially the same and recognized over time (e.g., CSAs or certain highly customized locomotives). When there are multiple performance obligations, revenue is allocated based on the relative stand-alone selling price.

DETERMINATION OF WHEN REVENUE SHOULD BE RECOGNIZED

Revenue for each performance obligation is recognized when our customers obtain control of the underlying goods and services allowing them the ability to direct the use of and substantially obtain all of the remaining benefits. This may occur at a point in time or over time. Non-complex equipment sales manufactured for a broad market, such as platform locomotives, spare parts and other high volume transactional orders are principally recognized at a point in time, which is generally when title transfers to the customer. Services and complex equipment manufactured to a customer’s specification are principally recognized over time including CSAs, certain highly customized locomotives, premium propulsion systems, digital implementation projects and digital service offerings.

MANNER IN WHICH REVENUE IS RECOGNIZED FOR OVER TIME CONTRACTS

For those performance obligations recognized over time, we generally recognize revenue either using a straight-line or cost-to-cost measure. A cost-to-cost method is used when costs incurred directly correlates to the fulfillment of our performance obligation to our customers. Under this method of progress, we recognize revenue

F-20

TABLE OF CONTENTS

GE Transportation
(A carve-out business of General Electric Company)
NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

based upon costs incurred at the estimated margin rate of the related performance obligation. Contract costs are generally accumulated in inventory, and therefore excluded from our measure of progress until the inventory practically or contractually cannot be utilized to fulfill another customer’s contract. Contract costs include direct labor, materials and subcontractors’ costs, as well as a reasonable allocation of indirect costs related to the service provided or good produced. Certain costs, such as non-recurring engineering, may also be specifically related to the contract, however, do not directly contribute to the transfer of control of the tangible product being created. These types of costs are accounted for as fulfillment costs and amortized proportionally to cost of sales rather than included in our measure of progress.

ESTIMATION PROCESS FOR CONTRACTS RECOGNIZED USING THE COST-TO-COST METHOD

The Business utilizes historical customer data, prior product performance data, statistical analysis, third party data, and internal management estimates to calculate contract-specific margins as our complex products require estimation of costs and certain of our arrangements, including CSAs, have variable billing terms based on customer utilization of the covered assets. While we believe our estimates and estimation processes are reasonable, there can be no assurances that changes in estimates will not occur in the future and such changes may be material. Changes in estimates are recorded in the current period based on a cumulative catch up approach, which recognizes the cumulative effect of the changes on current and prior periods based on the revised percentage of completion and estimated contract margin. The changes in estimates, principally within our CSA portfolio in Services, impacted revenue and operating income by approximately $38,019 thousand, $83,464 thousand and $15,452 thousand for fiscal years ended 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. If our estimation process anticipates a loss on the performance obligation, we reserve for the loss that we expect to incur when it is evident.

MANNER IN WHICH CONTRACT MODIFICATIONS ARE TREATED

Contract modifications are routine in the performance of our complex equipment and CSAs. Modifications that do not change the scope or price of the contract are commonly accounted for as a change in estimate to our existing performance obligation. Contract modifications that significantly change the scope and/or price of our contracts, most commonly in our CSAs, are accounted for prospectively.

CONTRACT AND OTHER DEFERRED ASSETS AND PROGRESS COLLECTIONS AND OTHER DEFERRED INCOME

Contract assets reflect revenues earned in excess of billings on our long-term contracts related to our equipment and CSAs. Contract liabilities reflects billings in excess of revenue recognized on similar agreements. Other deferred assets are fulfillment costs that principally relate to contractually required non-recurring engineering incurred during the initial design phase of a contract, which is recoverable over revenues generated as part of our production efforts. Recoverable costs are capitalized and amortized to Costs of revenues based on their expected pattern of benefit of the customers’ order. Amortization of fulfillment costs was approximately $23,828 thousand, $25,519 thousand and $23,329 thousand for fiscal periods ended 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Revenue recognized that was included in the contract liability at the beginning of the period was $570,651 thousand and $425,347 thousand for fiscal years ended 2017 and 2016, respectively.

REMAINING PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS

As of December 31, 2017, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to the unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) performance obligations was $15,519,353 thousand. This amount excludes highly probable but uncommitted purchases from our customers that are not legally enforceable. We expect to recognize revenue as we satisfy the remaining performance obligations as follows:

| • | Equipment - total remaining performance obligations of $4,688,665 thousand of which 71% is expected to be satisfied within 5 year(s) and the remaining thereafter.

| NOTE 4 | RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

As discussed in Note 1 Description of Business and Basis of Presentation, GE provides the Business with a number of services. Some of these services are provided directly by GE, and others are managed by GE through third-party service providers. The cost of certain of these services is either (a) recognized through our allocated portion of GE’s Corporate Overhead, or (b) billed directly to the Business (such as most of our employee benefit costs). The cost of other services is included within the service itself, and the incremental cost for GE to provide the service is not discernible (such as payroll processing services included within the cost of payroll). In addition, we and our affiliates obtain a variety of goods (such as supplies and equipment) and services (such as GE Global Research Center) under various master purchasing and service agreements to which GE (and not the Business) is a party. We are billed directly for services we procure under these arrangements.

We receive an allocated share of GE’s Corporate Overhead for certain services that GE provides to the Business, but which are not specifically billed to the Business, such as public relations, investor relations, treasury, and corporate internal audit services. Costs of $27,163 thousand, $28,249 thousand and $32,599 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively, were recorded in our Combined Statement of Earnings for our allocated share of GE’s Corporate Overhead. The Business has related party revenues of $817 thousand, $279 thousand and $2,145 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The majority of these sales were made by the Equipment segment to other GE industrial business units.

These combined financial statements include additional related party transactions with GE and GE entities that include the following:

| • | Amounts for due to / due from affiliates are recorded in Accounts payable and Current receivables, and are settled in cash. The Business has accounts payable resulting from amounts due to affiliates of $48,057 thousand and $70,008 thousand as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The Business has current receivables resulting from amounts due from affiliates of $21,259 thousand and $9,295 thousand as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

| • | The Business factors U.S. and non-U.S. receivables through WCS on a recourse and nonrecourse basis pursuant to various factoring and servicing agreements. The Business had factored receivables of $146,221 thousand and $216,967 thousand without recourse as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The Business had factored receivables of $3,989 thousand and $4,509 thousand with recourse as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. For agreements with recourse, the Business establishes a bad debt reserve based on the aging policy discussed in Note 2(F) Current Receivables. Historically, the Business has outsourced our servicing responsibilities to Global Operations AR CoE for a market-based fee and therefore no servicing asset or liability has been recorded on the Combined

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In performing the annual goodwill impairment test during 2017, we determined that the fair value of the reporting units was more than their carrying amounts. Therefore, no further impairment testing was required and no goodwill impairment was recognized during the fiscal year. As of December 31, 2017, we believe that goodwill is recoverable for all of the reporting units; however, there can be no assurance that the goodwill will not be impaired in future periods.

In 2016 and 2015, we recorded a $2,027 thousand and $85,421 thousand impairment charge, respectively, to a reporting unit within the Equipment reportable segment. The impairment charge was a direct result of a multi-year suppressed global commodities market and the related effect on the global mining investment environment that caused us to revise the expected cash flows of the reporting units. The impairment losses were recorded on the Combined Statement of Earnings in Impairment of goodwill and represented a complete impairment of goodwill in the Equipment reportable segment.

SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS

Beginning in September 2014, the Business entered into a series of unsecured loans with BNDES, a Brazilian Development Bank. The Business receives financing using local resources from this bank. The amounts outstanding under these loans as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 classified as short-term borrowings is $0 and $21,195 thousand, respectively. As of December 31, 2017, all of the BNDES loans had been paid in full and terminated. The weighted-average interest rate as of December 31, 2016 was 8.36%. Interest expense recognized for these loans was $1,824 thousand, $5,183 thousand and $2,336 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Interest expense is included within Other (expense) income in the Combined Statement of Earnings.

LONG-TERM BORROWINGS

In November 2012, the Business entered into two unsecured term loans with General Electric Europe Holdings C.V. for a total of $131,545 thousand. The debt was related to the acquisition of Industrea Limited, a move that expanded the Business’s product offering to the underground mining space. The estimated fair value approximates the carrying value. The debt carried a 5.07% interest rate, paid annually for the first year, with the interest rate resetting on the anniversary of the loan to the mid-rate of the one year swap rate plus a credit spread of 200 basis points. In November 2015, the Business extended both agreements by five years from the day of signing to a maturity date in November 2020 and amended the interest rate to the mid-rate of the one year swap rate plus a credit spread of 175 basis points. In May and November 2017, the Business terminated both loans early utilizing cash pool resources. Interest included in interest expense for long-term borrowings, including the current portion, is $2,377 thousand, $5,950 thousand and $8,043 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Interest expense is included within Other (expense) income in the Combined Statement of Earnings.

In September 2017, the Business entered into an unsecured loan facility agreement with Wipro GE Healthcare Private Limited to fund various ongoing projects and operational requirements. The loan has a total value of $68,703 thousand, disbursed in three tranches. As of December 31, 2017 the first two tranches had been disbursed with a total value of $44,256 thousand. The final tranche will be disbursed in January 2018. The loan carries an 8% annual interest rate, paid quarterly until the maturity of the loan in January 2020. Interest included in interest expense for long-term borrowings, including the current portion, is $588 thousand, $0 thousand and $0 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

| NOTE 12 | DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING

Economic hedges are not designated as hedged from an accounting standpoint (and therefore we do not apply hedge accounting to the relationship), but otherwise serve the same economic purpose as other hedging arrangements. We use economic hedges when we have exposures to currency exchange risk for which we are unable to meet the requirements for hedge accounting or when changes in the carrying amount of the hedged item are already recorded in earnings in the same period as the derivative-making hedge accounting unnecessary. Even though the derivative is an effective economic hedge, there may be a net effect on earnings in each period due to differences in the timing of earnings recognition between the derivative and the hedged item. Notional amounts outstanding are approximately $332,821 thousand and $240,589 thousand as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

The following table provides information about the fair value of our derivatives, by contract type and the accounts in the Combined Statement of Financial Position in which the balances are presented:

The tax provisions have been prepared on a separate return basis as if the Business was a separate group of companies under common ownership. The operations have been combined as if the Business was filing on a consolidated basis for U.S. Federal, U.S. state and non-U.S. income tax purposes, where allowable by law. The Business is subject to regulation under a wide variety of U.S. federal, U.S. state and non-U.S. tax laws, regulations and policies. Changes to these laws or regulations may affect our tax liability, return on investments and business operations.

UNRECOGNIZED TAX POSITIONS

The Business is under continuous examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), various U.S. state taxing authorities, and non-U.S. taxing authorities as part of the audit of GE’s tax returns. The IRS is currently auditing GE's consolidated U.S. income tax returns for 2012-2013 and has begun the audit for 2014-2015. During 2015,

TABLE OF CONTENTS

GE Transportation

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

the IRS completed the audit of GE's consolidated U.S. income tax returns for 2010-2011, except for certain issues that were completed in 2016. We believe that there are no jurisdictions in which the outcome of unresolved issues or claims is likely to be material to the results of operations, financial position or cash flows. We further believe that we have made adequate provisions for all income tax uncertainties.

The balance of unrecognized tax benefits, the amount of related interest and penalties we have provided and what we believe to be the range of reasonably possible changes in the next 12 months were as follows:

UNRECOGNIZED TAX BENEFITS

At December 31, 2017, we had $5,717 thousand of unrecognized tax benefits. In addition, we have accrued interest and penalties of $2,222 thousand and $1,446 thousand, respectively. The amount of unrecognized tax benefits that would impact the effective tax rate would be $5,717 thousand. Additionally, none of the amount of unrecognized tax benefits are expected to change in the next twelve months. We classify interest on tax deficiencies as interest expense; we classify income tax penalties as a provision for income taxes.

DEFERRED INCOME TAXES

Deferred income tax balances reflect the effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases, as well as from net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards, and are stated at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when taxes are actually paid or recovered. Deferred income tax assets represent amounts available to reduce income taxes payable on taxable income in future years. GE Transportation did not operate as a stand-alone entity in the past and, accordingly, tax losses, receivables and other deferred tax assets included in the combined carve-out financial statements on a separate return basis may not be available upon separation of the Business from GE.

We regularly evaluate the recoverability of our deferred tax assets and establish a valuation allowance, if necessary, to reduce the deferred tax assets to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized (a likelihood of more than 50 percent). Significant judgment is required to determine whether a valuation allowance is necessary and the amount of such valuation allowance. In assessing the recoverability of our deferred tax assets at December 31, 2017, we considered all available evidence, including the nature of financial statement losses and reversing taxable temporary differences and future operating profits.

NET OPERATING LOSSES

At December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Business had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $191,063 thousand and $181,672 thousand, respectively. The net operating loss carryforwards result in a deferred tax asset of $56,783 thousand and $54,098 thousand at December 31, 2017 and 2016. The majority of the net operating losses are located in Australia where losses can be carried forward indefinitely.

UNDISTRIBUTED EARNINGS

Substantially all of our undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries are indefinitely reinvested. Due to the enactment of U.S. tax reform, repatriations of foreign earnings will generally be free of U.S. federal tax but may incur other taxes such as withholding or state taxes. Indefinite reinvestment is determined by management’s intentions concerning the future operations of the Business. Most of these earnings have been reinvested in active non-U.S. business operations, and we do not intend to repatriate these earnings to fund U.S. operations. In addition, as a result of U.S. tax reform, substantially all of our prior unrepatriated foreign earnings were subject to U.S. tax, and accordingly we expect to have the ability to repatriate those earnings without incremental U.S. federal tax cost. As of December 31, 2017, the cumulative amount of indefinitely reinvested foreign earnings is approximately $278,956 thousand. Computation of any deferred tax liability associated with these undistributed earnings and any other basis differences is not practicable.

TAX REFORM

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. enacted the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“U.S. tax reform”) that lowers the statutory tax rate on our U.S. earnings, taxes historic foreign earnings at a reduced rate of tax, creates a territorial tax system and enacts new taxes associated with global operations. The impact of U.S. tax reform has been recorded on a provisional basis as the legislation provides for additional guidance to be issued by the U.S. Department of the Treasury on several provisions including the computation of the transition tax on historic foreign earnings. Future guidance could impact the information required for and the calculation of the transition tax charge and could affect decisions on timing of various U.S. and foreign items which would further impact the final 2017 amounts included in the transition charge and the revaluation of deferred taxes. In addition, analysis performed and conclusions reached as part of the tax return filing process and additional guidance on accounting for tax reform could affect the provisional estimate.

The U.S. has also enacted a minimum tax on foreign earnings (“global intangible low-taxed income”). Because we have tangible assets outside the U.S. and pay a rate of foreign tax above the minimum tax rate, we are not expecting a significant increase in tax liability from this new U.S. minimum tax. Because aspects of the new law and the effect on our operations is uncertain and because aspects of the accounting rules associated with these taxes have not been resolved, our deferred tax may be affected by these or other newly enacted provisions of U.S. law. Pending further accounting guidance and analysis, we have not made a provisional accrual for the deferred tax effects of the tax on base eroding payments and the tax on global intangible low-taxed income.

Included in 2017 is a tax charge of $5,454 thousand for the provisional estimate associated with the transition tax on historic foreign earnings under U.S. Tax Reform. Also, included in 2017 is a tax benefit of $114,168 thousand for the provisional estimate associated with the U.S. tax rate change. We expect to finalize these amount during 2018 as additional guidance is released by the U.S. Department of the Treasury and as we make final decisions and computations based on that guidance. In addition, there may be additional guidance during 2018 on the tax on base erosion payments and the tax on global intangible lower-taxed income. As these amounts are updated and analysis and conclusions to be performed as part of the U.S. tax return process are completed, the effect of revaluation of deferred taxes will also be finalized.

WARRANTY OBLIGATIONS

As part of our product sales we provide standard warranty coverage to our customers as part of customary practices in the market to provide assurance that the equipment sold will comply with agreed upon specifications and such standard warranty at the time of sale is limited to fixing product defects. Issuance of a product warranty constitutes a commitment, which must be accrued as a loss contingency if expenditures under the warranty are both probable and reasonably estimable. The Business provides for estimated product warranty expenses when the related product sale is recognized. Additionally, we may elect certain corrective actions, at our expense, for certain product-related matters impacting our product portfolios. Warranty obligations are recognized for these matters when we commit to these corrective actions and they are estimable. Because warranty estimates are forecasts that are based on the best available information, primarily based on historical warranty claims experience and outstanding warranty period, claims costs may differ from amounts provided.

(In thousands) | 2017 | 2016
Balance at January 1 | $ | 101,492 |  | $ | 120,172 |
Current year provisions |  | 54,346 |  |  | 50,359 |
Utilizations and other |  | (75,521 | ) |  | (69,039 | )
Balance at December 31 | $ | 80,317 |  | $ | 101,492 |

Approximately 38% and 75% of warranty costs as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, are expected to be incurred beyond 12 months and therefore are classified as a long-term liability in Other liabilities. Refer to Note 14 Other Current Liabilities and Other Liabilities.

GUARANTEES

The Business provides guarantees in the ordinary course of business. The Business believes the likelihood is remote that any such arrangements could have a significant adverse effect on these combined financial statements of the Business. The Business records liabilities for guarantees at estimated fair value, generally the amount of the premium received, or if we do not receive a premium, the amount based on appraisal, observed market values or discounted cash flows, which are zero as of December 31, 2017 and 2016. The Business has off-balance sheet credit exposure through standby letters of credit, bank guarantees, bid bonds, and surety bonds. See Note 11 Borrowings. In addition, our Parent may provide the Business with parent company guarantees in certain jurisdictions where we lack the legal structure to issue the requisite guarantees required on certain projects. We are charged by our Parent the fair market value of such guarantees.

LITIGATION

The Business is subject to a variety of legal proceedings and legal compliance risks in all parts of the world where the Business operates or buys or sells its equipment and services. The Business has adopted appropriate risk management and compliance programs to address these and other matters that may arise from time to time. The global and diverse nature of our business and the changing enforcement environments in which it operates, means the Business will continue to face legal and compliance risks, the nature and outcome of which cannot be predicted with certainty. Currently, management believes there are no legal contingencies that are likely to have a material effect on the Business's Combined Statements of Financial Position, Earnings, or Cash Flows.

In late November 2017, staff of the Boston office of the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC) notified GE that they are conducting an investigation of GE’s revenue recognition practices and internal controls over financial reporting related to long-term service agreements. We have provided documentation to Parent regarding our long-term service agreement practices. Parent is providing documents and other information requested by the SEC staff, and our Parent is cooperating with their ongoing investigation.

OTHER CONTRACTUAL COMMITMENTS

We also had commitments outstanding for purchase obligations, which represents take-or-pay contracts as well as purchase orders for goods and services utilized in the normal course of business such as capital expenditures, inventory and services under contracts.

At December 31, 2017, we had the following purchase commitments:

(In thousands) | 2018 | 2019 | 2020 | 2021 | 2022
Purchase obligations | $ | 19,436 |  | $ | 90 |  | $ | — |  | $ | 22,669 |  | $ | 1,300 |

OTHER LOSS CONTINGENCIES

Other loss contingencies are uncertain and unresolved matters that arise in the ordinary course of business and result from events or actions by others that have the potential to result in a future loss. Suzch contingencies include, but are not limited to, environmental obligations, litigation, regulatory proceedings, product quality and losses resulting from other events and developments.

When a loss is considered probable and reasonably estimable, a liability is recorded in the amount of GE Transportation’s best estimate for the ultimate loss. When there appears to be a range of possible costs with equal likelihood, liabilities are based on the low end of such range. However, the likelihood of a loss, with respect to a contingency, is often difficult to predict and determining a meaningful estimate of the loss or a range of loss may not be practicable based on the information available and the potential effect of future events and decisions by third parties that will determine the ultimate resolution of the contingency. Moreover, it is not uncommon for such matters to be resolved over many years, during which time relevant developments and new information must be continuously evaluated to determine both the likelihood of potential loss and whether it is possible to reasonably estimate a range of possible loss. When a loss is probable but a reasonable estimate cannot be made, disclosure is provided.

Disclosure is also provided when it is reasonably possible that a loss will be incurred or when it is reasonably possible that the amount of a loss will exceed the recorded provision. GE Transportation regularly reviews all contingencies to determine whether the likelihood of loss has changed and to assess whether a reasonable estimate of the loss, or range of loss, can be made. As discussed above, development of a meaningful estimate of loss or a range of potential loss is complex when the outcome is directly dependent on negotiations with, or decisions by, third parties, such as regulatory agencies, the court system and other interested parties. Such factors bear directly on whether it is possible to reasonably estimate a range of potential loss and boundaries of high and low estimates.

| NOTE 16 | LEASES

LEASE COMMITMENTS

The Business is a lessee under various cancelable and non-cancelable operating lease arrangements for facilities, information technology, fleet, and other equipment having terms, which expire on various dates. Rent expense for third party leases was $23,274 thousand, $28,255 thousand and $30,411 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. We did not enter into any significant capital leases during the three years ended December 31, 2017.

Future minimum lease payments on non-cancelable operating lease arrangements, net of amounts due under subleases, as of December 31, 2017, consist of the following:

This table excludes arrangements with GE and GE entities, which are cancelable at the option of the Business. Rent of approximately $5,828 thousand was paid to GE for these leases for the year ended December 31, 2017, which was generally consistent with prior years. See Note 4 Related Party Transactions.

| NOTE 17 | PENSION AND POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS

Certain employees are covered under GE’s retirement plans (e.g. pension, retiree health and life insurance). In addition, certain Canadian employees participate in the GE Canada Defined Benefit Pension Plan as well as the Canada Postretirement Benefits.

The Business is allocated relevant participation costs for these GE employee benefit plans by GE. As such, the Business has not recorded any liabilities associated with our participation in this multi-employer plan in our Combined Statement of Financial Position as of December 31, 2017 and 2016.

Expenses associated with our employees’ participation in the U.S. GE pension and postretirement benefit plans are $77,965 thousand, $86,285 thousand and $108,647 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Expenses associated with our employees’ participation in the GE Canada Defined Benefit Pension Plan and Canada Postretirement Benefits are $1,019 thousand, $1,015 thousand and $1,792 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

| NOTE 18 | RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER ACTIVITIES

The Business plans for restructuring initiatives to be completed within one year from the date the plan is effective. Restructuring actions are an essential component of our improvement efforts to both existing operations and those recently acquired, and there have been several initiatives in recent years as we have right-sized our businesses for changing market conditions.

Restructuring and other charges relate primarily to workforce reductions, facility exit costs associated with the consolidation of sales, service and manufacturing facilities, and other asset write-downs. The Business continues to closely monitor the economic environment and may undertake further restructuring actions to more closely align our cost structure with earnings goals.

Independent Auditors’ Review Report

To the Board of Directors
General Electric Company:

Report on the Financial Statements

We have reviewed the condensed combined statement of financial position of GE Transportation (a carve-out business of General Electric Company) (the Company) as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, and the related condensed combined statement of earnings, statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity, and statement of cash flows for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017.

Management’s Responsibility

The Company’s management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the combined financial information in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles; this responsibility includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control sufficient to provide a reasonable basis for the preparation and fair presentation of interim financial information in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to conduct our review in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to reviews of interim financial information and in accordance with the auditing standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and in accordance with the auditing standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial information. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the combined financial information referred to above for it to be in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Report on Combined Statement of Financial Position as of December 31, 2017

We have previously audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and in accordance with the auditing standards of the PCAOB, the combined statement of financial position as of December 31, 2017, and the related combined statement of earnings, statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity, and statement of cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and we expressed an unmodified audit opinion on those audited combined financial statements in our report dated June 4, 2018. In our opinion, the accompanying condensed combined statement of financial position of GE Transportation as of December 31, 2017, is consistent, in all material respects, with the audited combined financial statement from which it has been derived.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

| NOTE 1 | DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS

GE Transportation (the “Business”, “GET”, “our” or “we”) is a carve-out business of General Electric Company (“GE” or “Parent”). We are a leading global provider of products and solutions to transportation, logistics and other industrial markets. We design, engineer and manufacture diesel-electric locomotives, supply associated aftermarket parts and services, and provide digital solutions. Our culture of innovation and differentiated aftermarket solutions has allowed us to build a leading global installed base of diesel-electric locomotives, significant contracted services backlog and longstanding customer relationships. Our products and services are critical to our customers’ operating and financial success and enable them to operate with reliability and efficiency. Leveraging our heritage in diesel-electric locomotives, we have continued to innovate to expand our technologies into new products, end markets and logistics applications. Leveraging our core competencies in locomotive manufacturing, we produce electric motors and premium propulsion systems for mining, marine, stationary power and drilling applications. We have combined industry leadership with engineering and software capabilities to build a digital business that is leading the transformation of the transportation and mining industries. We employ approximately 9,200 employees and had sales in more than 50 countries.

The Business is comprised of three reportable segments, which reflect the way performance is assessed and resources are allocated. These reportable segments are Equipment, Services, and Digital.

On May 21, 2018, GE and Westinghouse Air Brake Technologies (“Wabtec”) Corporation announced that they had entered into a definitive agreement whereby Wabtec would acquire the Business (the “Proposed Transaction”).

Under the agreement, which has been approved by the Boards of Directors of Wabtec and GE, GE will receive $2.9 billion in cash at closing. GE shareholders will own approximately 40.2%, GE will own approximately 9.9%, and Wabtec shareholders will own approximately 49.9% of the combined company on a fully diluted basis. Wabtec continues to supply components to the Business under our preexisting relationship.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

These condensed combined financial statements were prepared on a stand-alone basis derived from the consolidated financial statements and accounting records of GE. These unaudited condensed combined financial statements as of September 30, 2018 and for each of the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 are presented as carve-out financial statements and reflect the condensed combined historical results of earnings, comprehensive income, financial position and cash flows of the Business, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). Refer below to Recent Accounting Pronouncements Reflected in These Condensed Combined Financial Statements for a summary of recent accounting pronouncements that were adopted and applied in these condensed combined financial statements.

These condensed combined financial statements consolidate all majority-owned subsidiaries of the Business. The noncontrolling interests have been shown in the Condensed Combined Statement of Financial Position as Equity attributable to noncontrolling interests.

All intercompany balances and transactions within the Business have been eliminated in these condensed combined financial statements. As described in Note 5 Related Party Transactions, certain transactions between the Business and GE have been included in these condensed combined financial statements.

The Condensed Combined Statement of Financial Position reflects, among other things, all of the assets and liabilities of GE and the Business that are specifically identifiable as being directly attributable to the Business, including Net parent investment as a component of equity. Net parent investment represents GE’s historical investment in the Business and includes accumulated net earnings attributable to GE, the net effect of transactions with GE and GE entities, and cost allocations from GE that were not historically allocated to the Business.

GE uses a centralized approach to cash management and financing of its operations. These arrangements are not reflective of the manner in which the Business would have financed its operations had it been a stand-alone business separate from GE during the periods presented. Cash pooling arrangements are excluded from the asset and liability balances in the Condensed Combined Statement of Financial Position. These amounts have instead been reported as Net parent investment as a component of equity.

GE and its affiliates provide a variety of services to the Business. The Business may also sell products in the ordinary course of business to GE and its affiliates. The Condensed Combined Statement of Earnings includes expense allocations for services and certain support functions (“GE Corporate Overhead”) that are provided on a centralized basis within GE such as legal, business development, human resources, corporate audit, treasury and various other GE corporate functions that are routinely allocated to the Business and reflected in the Condensed Combined Statement of Earnings in Selling, general and administrative expenses. In addition to GE Corporate Overhead allocations, Selling, general and administrative expenses that would have been incurred in the ordinary course of business if the Business operated as a stand-alone company, such as compensation and benefits for employees of the Business, were included based on either specific identification of direct expenses or an allocation using an approach related to the nature of the item (e.g., external revenue or headcount).

Where allocations of amounts were necessary, the Business believes the allocation of these amounts was determined on a reasonable basis, reflecting all of the costs of GE Transportation and consistently applied in the periods presented. These allocated amounts, however, are not necessarily indicative of the actual amounts that might have been incurred or realized had the Business operated as a separate stand-alone entity during the periods presented. Consequently, these condensed combined financial statements do not necessarily represent the results the Business would have achieved if the Business had operated as a separate stand-alone entity from GE during the periods presented.

INTERIM PERIOD PRESENTATION

These condensed combined financial statements and notes thereto are unaudited. These statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) that we considered necessary to present a fair statement of our results of earnings, financial position and cash flows. The results reported in these condensed combined financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year. It is suggested that these condensed combined financial statements be read in conjunction with the annual combined financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 and notes thereto.

| NOTE 2 | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of condensed combined financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of any contingent assets or liabilities at the date of these condensed combined financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions and information that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Estimates and assumptions about future events and their effects cannot be perceived with certainty, and accordingly, these estimates may change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as our operating environment changes. While the Business believes that the estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of these condensed combined financial statements are appropriate, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Estimates are used for, but are not limited to, determining the following: estimates of variable revenues and/or costs on long-term revenue generating contracts, recoverability of long-lived assets and inventory, valuation of goodwill, useful lives used in depreciation and amortization, income taxes and related valuation allowances, accruals for contingencies including warranties, actuarial assumptions used to determine costs on employee benefit plans, valuation assumptions for long term stock-based compensation expense, valuation and recoverability of receivables, valuation of derivatives and the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in acquisitions.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Our revenue recognition on long-term Contractual Service Agreements (“CSAs”) requires estimates of both customer payments expected to be received over the contract term as well as the costs expected to be incurred to perform required maintenance services. We routinely review estimates under CSAs and regularly revise them to adjust for changes in outlook, however these estimates may materially vary from actual payments and costs incurred over the life of the contracts.

Additionally, please refer to Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in the annual 2017 combined financial statements for the discussion of our significant accounting policies.

| (A) | RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS REFLECTED IN THESE CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Our combined annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 included the adoption of the following new accounting standards that became effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. As a result, these interim condensed combined financial statements are consistently presented in accordance with the following recently adopted standards:

| • | ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Refer to Note 3 Revenue Related to Contracts with Customers for more details.

| • | ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. Refer to the combined annual financial statements for more details.

| • | ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. Refer to the combined annual financial statements for more details.

| • | ASU 2017-07, Compensation—Retirement Benefits (Topic 715), Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. Refer to the combined annual financial statements for more details.

| • | ASU 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330), Simplifying of the Measurement of Inventory. Refer to the combined annual financial statements for more details.

| • | ASU 2015-16, Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments. Refer to the combined annual financial statements for more details.

| • | ASU 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes. Refer to the combined annual financial statements for more details.

The following standards have been adopted within these interim condensed combined financial statements:

| • | ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. This ASU provides a new framework that will assist in the evaluation of whether business combination transactions should be accounted as acquisition of a business or a group of assets, as well as specifying the minimum required inputs and processes necessary to be a business. The provisions of this ASU are effective for years beginning after December 15, 2017. All disposals in the current period were accounted for under the provision of the new guidance.

| • | ASU 2016-16, Accounting for Income Taxes: Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory. This standard amends existing guidance on income taxes to require the accounting for the income tax effects of intercompany sales and transfers of assets other than inventory when the transfer occurs. As a result, the tax expense from the intercompany sale of assets, other than inventory, and associated changes to deferred taxes will be recognized when the sale occurs even though the pre-tax effects of the transaction have not been recognized. The pronouncement is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those annual periods, with early adoption

permitted at the beginning of an annual period for which no financial statements have already been issued. This amendment has been applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption, which did not have an impact on our historical results.

| • | ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows: Restricted Cash. This standard requires the changes in the total of cash and restricted cash to be presented in the statement of cash flows. In addition, when cash and restricted cash are presented on separate lines on the balance sheet, an entity is required to reconcile the totals in the statement of cash flows to the related line items in the balance sheet. While not a direct effect of the adoption of the standard, to simplify the reconciliation of the statement of cash flows to the cash balances presented in our statement of financial position, we have elected to present cash and restricted cash as a single line on the balance sheet, which did not have an impact on our historical results.

| (B) | OTHER RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. This ASU simplifies the measurement of goodwill impairment to a single-step test. The guidance removes step two of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation, and a goodwill impairment loss will now be the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. Under the revised guidance, failing step one will always result in goodwill impairment. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests beginning after December 15, 2019 and early adoption is permitted. The Business is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2017-04 on our combined financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The ASU introduces a new accounting model, the Current Expected Credit Losses model (CECL), which requires earlier recognition of credit losses, while also providing additional transparency about credit risk. The CECL model utilizes a lifetime expected credit loss measurement objective for the recognition of credit losses for loans and other receivables at the time the financial asset is originated or acquired. The expected credit losses are adjusted each period for changes in expected lifetime credit losses. This model replaces the multiple existing impairment models under current U.S. GAAP, which generally require that a loss be incurred before it is recognized. The new standard will also apply to receivables arising from revenue transactions such as contract assets and accounts receivables and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. We continue to evaluate the effect of the standard on our combined financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, creating ASC Subtopic 842, Leases. ASU 2016-02 sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both lessees and lessors. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to present a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability on the balance sheet. Lessor accounting is substantially unchanged compared to the current accounting guidance. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and for the interim and annual reporting periods thereafter, with early adoption permitted. We are planning to elect the new transition method approved by the FASB on July 30, 2018, which allows companies to apply the provisions of the new leasing standard as of January 1, 2019, without adjusting the comparative periods presented by recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. We are currently in the process of accumulating and evaluating all the necessary information required to properly account for our lease portfolio under the new standard. Additionally, we are implementing an enterprise-wide lease management system to support the ongoing accounting requirements. Development and testing of our selected systems solution is ongoing. Our Parent is working closely with the software system developer as the timely readiness of the lease software system is critical to ensure an efficient and effective adoption of the standard. We are evaluating additional changes to our processes and internal controls to ensure we meet the standard’s reporting and disclosure requirements. While we continue to evaluate the effect of the standard on our combined financial statements, the adoption of the ASU will result in the recognition of a right of use asset and related liability in the Combined Statement of Financial Position upon adoption.

CONTRACT AND OTHER DEFERRED ASSETS AND PROGRESS COLLECTIONS AND OTHER DEFERRED INCOME

Contract assets reflect revenues earned in excess of billings on our long-term contracts related to our equipment and CSAs. Contract liabilities reflect billings in excess of revenue recognized on similar agreements. Other deferred assets are fulfillment costs that principally relate to contractually required non-recurring engineering incurred during the initial design phase of a contract, which is recoverable over revenues generated as part of our production efforts. Recoverable costs are capitalized and amortized to Costs of revenues based on their expected pattern of benefit of the customers’ order. Amortization of fulfillment costs was approximately $5,571 thousand and $2,576 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $18,124 thousand and $17,774 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

At September 30, 2018, $91,822 thousand of GET cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash was held in countries with currency controls that may restrict the transfer of funds to the U.S. or limit our ability to transfer funds to the U.S. without incurring substantial costs. These funds are available to fund operations and growth in these countries and we do not currently anticipate a need to transfer these funds to the U.S.

| NOTE 5 | RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

As discussed in Note 1 Description of Business and Basis of Presentation, GE provides the Business with a number of services. Some of these services are provided directly by GE, and others are managed by GE through third-party service providers. The cost of certain of these services is either (a) recognized through our allocated portion of GE’s Corporate Overhead, or (b) billed directly to the Business (such as most of our employee benefit costs). The cost of other services is included within the service itself, and the incremental cost for GE to provide the service is not discernible (such as payroll processing services included within the cost of payroll). In addition, we and our affiliates obtain a variety of goods (such as supplies and equipment) and services (such as GE Global Research Center) under various master purchasing and service agreements to which GE (and not the Business) is a party. We are billed directly for services we procure under these arrangements.

We receive an allocated share of GE’s Corporate Overhead for certain services that GE provides to the Business, but which are not specifically billed to the Business, such as public relations, investor relations, treasury, and corporate internal audit services. Costs of $8,241 thousand and $6,791 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively and $20,823 thousand and $20,373 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, were recorded in our Unaudited Condensed Combined Statement of Earnings for our allocated share of GE’s Corporate Overhead. The Business has related party revenues of $649 thousand and $729 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively and $4,404 thousand and $1,087 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The majority of these sales were made by the Equipment segment to other GE industrial business units.

These condensed combined financial statements include additional related party transactions with GE and GE entities that include the following:

| • | Amounts for due to / due from affiliates are recorded in Accounts payable and Current receivables, and are settled in cash. The Business has accounts payable resulting from amounts due to affiliates of $82,876 thousand and $48,057 thousand as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The Business has current receivables resulting from amounts due from affiliates of $33,688 thousand and $21,259 thousand as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

| • | The Business factors U.S. and non-U.S. receivables through Working Capital Solutions (“WCS”), on a recourse and nonrecourse basis pursuant to various factoring and servicing agreements. The Business had factored receivables of $115,840 thousand and $146,221 thousand without recourse as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The Business had factored receivables of $9,601 thousand and $3,989 thousand with recourse as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. For agreements with recourse, the Business establishes a bad debt reserve based on the aging policy. Historically, the Business has outsourced our servicing responsibilities to Global Operations AR CoE for a market-based fee, and therefore, no servicing asset or liability has been recorded on the Unaudited Condensed Combined Statement of Financial Position as of September 30,

| NOTE 12 | BORROWINGS

In September 2017, the Business entered into an unsecured loan facility agreement with Wipro GE Healthcare Private Limited to fund various ongoing projects and operational requirements. The loan had a total disbursement value of $68,703 thousand, disbursed in three tranches. As of December 31, 2017 the first two tranches had been disbursed with a total value of $44,256 thousand. The final tranche was disbursed in the first quarter of 2018. The loan carries an 8% annual interest rate, compounded quarterly and matures in three tranches due October 2019, November 2019, and January 2020. However, under the agreement, this loan will be settled by the Business prior to the consummation of the Proposed Transaction. Interest included in interest expense for long-term borrowings, including the current portion, is $1,458 thousand and $0 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 and $3,938 thousand and $0 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Interest expense is included within Other (expense) income in the Unaudited Condensed Combined Statement of Earnings.

Due to the nature and terms of the debt, the Business carries the debt at face value and did not recognize a discount or premium at issuance. The current portion of long-term debt is included in Short-term borrowings, and the non-current portion of the debt is included in Long-term borrowings. The amounts outstanding under the long-term borrowings as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 are reflected in the table below.

Interest expense includes expense related to current receivable factoring programs. See Note 5 Related Party Transactions.

LETTERS OF CREDIT

As of September 30, 2018 and December 30, 2017, the Business has off-balance sheet credit exposure primarily for bank guarantees of approximately $461,048 thousand and $532,196 thousand, respectively. This balance represents the notional amount of bank guarantees obtained in the normal course of business from non-affiliated third party financial institutions to guarantee the Business’s own performance on contracts with customers and suppliers. In the event nonperformance by the Business results in a customer or supplier drawing on the guarantee, the Business would be secondarily liable. Historically, the Business has not experienced any losses on these credit exposures.

| NOTE 13 | DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING

Economic hedges are not designated as hedged from an accounting standpoint (and therefore we do not apply hedge accounting to the relationship), but otherwise serve the same economic purpose as other hedging arrangements. We use economic hedges when we have exposures to currency exchange and commodity price risk for which we are unable to meet the requirements for hedge accounting or when changes in the carrying amount of the hedged item are already recorded in earnings in the same period as the derivative, making hedge accounting unnecessary. Even though the derivative is an effective economic hedge, there may be a net effect on earnings in each period due to differences in the timing of earnings recognition between the derivative and the hedged item. Notional amounts outstanding related to currency exchange contracts are approximately $355,333 thousand and $332,821 thousand as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. Notional amounts related to commodity contracts are approximately $59,118 thousand as of September 30, 2018. There were no commodity contracts outstanding as of December 31, 2017. Additionally, the Business enters into contracts from time to time with international customers in the normal course of business that have embedded derivative components that are accounted for separately from the contract.

The following table provides information about the fair value of our derivatives, by contract type and the accounts in the Unaudited Condensed Combined Statement of Financial Position in which the balances are presented:

(In thousands) | September 30, 2018 | December 31, 2017

| Fair Value
Currency exchange and commodity contracts | $ | 4,747 |  | $ | 11,351 |  | $ | 3,303 |  | $ | 6,372 |

Derivative instruments are principally administered by GE and the loss for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was $3,249 thousand and the gain for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was $2,957. The loss was $11,388 thousand and $6,550 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. These gains (losses) are included in Other (expense) income.

| NOTE 14 | INCOME TAXES

Our consolidated effective income tax rates were 24% and 36% during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The rate for 2018 benefited from a lower U.S. statutory rate effective for years beginning in 2018 due to U.S. tax reform and favorable changes in mix of earnings.

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. enacted legislation commonly known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“U.S. tax reform”) that lowered the statutory tax rate on U.S. earnings to 21%, taxes historic foreign earnings at a reduced rate of tax, establishes a territorial tax system and enacts new taxes associated with global operations.

The impact of enactment of U.S. tax reform was recorded on a provisional basis as the legislation provides for additional guidance to be issued by the U.S. Department of the Treasury on several provisions. Guidance during 2018 could impact the information required for and the calculation of the foreign-derived intangible income ("FDII"), base erosion anti-abuse tax ("BEAT") and global intangible low-taxed income ("GILTI") provisions and could affect decisions that affect the tax on various U.S. and foreign items, which would further impact the final amounts included in these provisions and impact the revaluation of deferred taxes. In addition, analysis performed and conclusions reached as part of the tax return filing process and additional guidance on accounting for U.S. tax reform could affect the provisional amount.

Additionally, as part of tax reform, the U.S. has enacted a minimum tax on foreign earnings (“GILTI”). We have not made an accounting policy election on the deferred tax treatment and, consequently, we have not made an accrual for the deferred tax aspects of this provision.

In the next twelve months, we do not expect uncertain tax positions to materially change.

| NOTE 16 | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

WARRANTY OBLIGATIONS

As part of our product sales we provide standard warranty coverage to our customers as part of customary practices in the market to provide assurance that the equipment sold will comply with agreed upon specifications and such standard warranty at the time of sale is limited to fixing product defects. Issuance of a product warranty constitutes a commitment, which must be accrued as a loss contingency if expenditures under the warranty are both probable and reasonably estimable. The Business provides for estimated product warranty expenses when the related product sale is recognized. Additionally, we may elect certain corrective actions, at our expense, for certain product-related matters impacting our product portfolios. Warranty obligations are recognized for these

F-58

TABLE OF CONTENTS

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

matters when we commit to these corrective actions and they are estimable. Because warranty estimates are forecasts that are based on the best available information, primarily based on historical warranty claims experience and outstanding warranty period, claims costs may differ from amounts provided.

Approximately 38% and 31% of the warranty provision as of September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, are expected to be consumed beyond 12 months and therefore, are classified as a long-term liability in Other liabilities. Refer to Note 15 Other Current Liabilities and Other Liabilities.

GUARANTEES

The Business provides guarantees in the ordinary course of business. The Business believes the likelihood is remote that any such arrangements could have a significant adverse effect on these condensed combined financial statements of the Business. The Business records liabilities for guarantees at estimated fair value, generally the amount of the premium received, or if we do not receive a premium, the amount based on appraisal, observed market values or discounted cash flows, which are zero as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. In addition, our Parent may provide the Business with parent company guarantees in certain jurisdictions where we lack the legal structure to issue the requisite guarantees required on certain projects. We are charged by our Parent the fair market value of such guarantees.

LITIGATION

The Business is subject to a variety of legal proceedings and legal compliance risks in all parts of the world where the Business operates or buys or sells its equipment and services. The Business has adopted appropriate risk management and compliance programs to address these and other matters that may arise from time to time. The global and diverse nature of our business and the changing enforcement environments in which it operates, means the Business will continue to face legal and compliance risks, the nature and outcome of which cannot be predicted with certainty. Currently, management believes there are no legal contingencies that are likely to have a material effect on the Business's Condensed Combined Statements of Financial Position, Earnings, or Cash Flows.

In late November 2017, staff of the Boston office of the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission (“SEC”) notified GE that they are conducting an investigation of GE’s revenue recognition practices and internal controls over financial reporting related to long-term service agreements. We have provided documentation to Parent regarding our long-term service agreement practices. Parent is providing documents and other information requested by the SEC staff, and our Parent is cooperating with their ongoing investigation. Staff from the Department of Justice are also investigating these matters, and our Parent is providing them with requested documents and information as well.

The Business is allocated relevant participation costs for these GE employee benefit plans by GE. As such, the Business has not recorded any liabilities associated with our participation in this multi-employer plan in our Unaudited Condensed Combined Statement of Financial Position as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

PART II INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN THE PROSPECTUS

| Item 20. | Indemnification of Directors and Officers

1. Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”). Section 145 of the DGCL provides that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the person’s conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that the person’s conduct was unlawful.

Section 145 also provides that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit, if the person acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability, but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

To the extent that a former or present director or officer of the corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to above, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith.

Any such indemnification (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that the indemnification of the present or former director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because such person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth above. Such determination shall be made:

| (1) | by a majority vote of the directors who were not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum; or

| (2) | by a committee of such directors designated by a majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum; or

| (3) | if there are no such directors, or, if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion; or

| (4) | by the stockholders.

Section 145 permits a Delaware business corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability.

2. Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL. Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL provides that a corporation may set forth in its Certificate of Incorporation a provision eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, provided that such provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL regarding the unlawful payment of dividends or approval of unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. No such provision shall eliminate or limit the liability of a director for any act or omission occurring prior to the date when such provision becomes effective (in the case of Wabtec, October 19, 1989). As noted in paragraph 3 below, Wabtec’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, includes a provision contemplated by Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL.

3. Certificate of Incorporation Provision on Liability of Directors. The Restated Certificate of Incorporation of Wabtec, as amended, provides that no Wabtec director shall be personally liable to Wabtec or any of its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of a fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to Wabtec or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) pursuant to Section 174 of the DGCL, or (iv) for any transactions from which a director derived an improper personal benefit.

4. Indemnification By-Law. Section 1 of Article VIII of Wabtec’s Amended and Restated By-Laws provides that Wabtec shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of Wabtec) by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer of Wabtec, or is or was a director or officer of the Wabtec enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), payments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of Wabtec, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by payment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of Wabtec, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

Section 2 of Article VIII of Wabtec’s Amended and Restated By-Laws provides that Wabtec shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of Wabtec to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer of Wabtec, or is or was a director or officer of Wabtec serving at the request of Wabtec as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of Wabtec; except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to Wabtec unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

Section 3 of Article VIII of Wabtec’s Amended and Restated By-Laws provides that any indemnification under Article VIII (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by Wabtec only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director or officer is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 1 or Section 2 of Article VIII, as the case may be. Such determination shall be made (i) by a majority of the vote of the directors who are not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (ii) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (iii) by the stockholders. To the extent, however, that

II-2

TABLE OF CONTENTS

a director or officer of Wabtec has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding described above, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith, without the necessity of authorization in the specific case.

Section 8 of Article VIII of Wabtec’s Amended and Restated By-Laws provides that Wabtec may purchase or maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director or officer of Wabtec, or is or was a director of Wabtec serving at the request of Wabtec as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not Wabtec would have the right or obligation to indemnify him against such liability.

5. Director and Officer Liability Insurance. Wabtec maintains director and officer liability insurance covering its directors and officers with respect to certain liabilities which they may incur in connection with their serving as such.

(a) Exhibits. See the Exhibit Index attached to this prospectus-information statement, which is incorporated herein.

(b) Financial Statement Schedules. The Financial Statement schedule, “Valuation and Qualifying Accounts,” for Wabtec is included in the financial statements of Wabtec, incorporated by reference in this registration statement.

| Item 22. | Undertakings

(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to deliver or cause to be delivered with the prospectus, to each person to whom the prospectus is sent or given, the latest annual report, to security holders that is incorporated in the prospectus and furnished pursuant to and meeting the requirements of Rule 14a-3 or Rule 14c-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; and, where interim financial information required to be presented by Article 3 of Regulation S-X is not set forth in the prospectus, to deliver, or cause to be delivered to each person to whom the prospectus is sent or given, the latest quarterly report that is specifically incorporated in the prospectus to provide such interim financial information.

(c) (1) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes as follows: That prior to any public reoffering of the securities registered hereunder through use of a prospectus which is a part of this registration statement, by any person or party who is deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of Rule 145© of the Securities Act of 1933, the issuer undertakes that such reoffering prospectus will contain the information called for by the applicable registration form with respect to reofferings by persons who may be deemed underwriters, in addition to the information called for by the other items of the applicable form.

(2) The undersigned registrant undertakes that every prospectus (i) that is filed pursuant to paragraph (1) immediately preceding, or (ii) that purports to meet the requirements of section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933 and is used in connection with an offering of securities subject to Rule 415 of the Securities Act of 1933, will be filed as a part of an amendment to the registration statement and will not be used until such amendment is effective, and that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(d) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification

TABLE OF CONTENTS

is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

(e) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to respond to requests for information that is incorporated into the prospectus pursuant to Items 4, 10(b), 11 or 13 of this Form, within one business day of receipt of such request, and to send the incorporated documents by first class mail or other equally prompt means. This includes information contained in documents filed subsequent to the effective date of the registration statement through the date of responding to the request.

(f) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information concerning a transaction, and the company being acquired involved therein, that was not the subject of and included in the registration statement when it became effective.
