FORMING PART OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE OFFER

1. Delivery of Election Form.

A properly completed and signed original of this election form (or a facsimile of it) must be received by Christine C. Moran either via hand delivery at Genesee & Wyoming Inc., 66 Field Point Road, Greenwich, Connecticut 06830, attention: Christine C. Moran, or via e-mail to cmoran@gwrr.com, or via facsimile (fax number: (203) 661-4106), on or before 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on July 13, 2007 (referred to as the expiration date).

The delivery of all required documents, including election forms, is at your risk. Delivery will be deemed made only when actually received by Christine C. Moran. You may hand deliver your election form to Christine C. Moran at Genesee & Wyoming Inc., 66 Field Point Road, Greenwich, Connecticut 06830, or send it via e-mail to cmoran@gwrr.com, or you may fax it to Christine C. Moran at (203) 661-4106. In all cases, you should allow sufficient time to ensure timely delivery. We intend to confirm the receipt of your election form by either e-mail within two U.S. business days or by United States mail posted within three U.S. business days (if no e-mail address is available). If you have not received such an e-mail or United States mail confirmation, it is your responsibility to ensure that your election form has been received by July 13, 2007. Only responses that are complete, signed and actually received by Christine C. Moran by the deadline will be accepted. Responses may only be submitted via fax, e-mail or hand delivery, as set forth in the first sentence of this paragraph. Responses submitted by any other means, including United States mail (or other post) and Federal Express (or similar delivery service), are not permitted and will not be accepted.

Our receipt of your election form is not by itself an acceptance of your options for amendment. For purposes of the offer, we will be deemed to have accepted options with respect to which proper elections have been made and not properly withdrawn as of when we give written or electronic notice to option holders generally of our acceptance of such options, which notice may be made by press release, e-mail or other method of communication.

We will not accept any alternative, conditional or contingent elections. Although we intend to send you an e-mail or letter (if no e-mail address is available) confirmation of receipt of this election form, by signing this election form, you waive any right to receive any notice of the receipt of the election with respect to your options, except as provided for in the Offer to Amend. Any confirmation of receipt sent to you will merely be a notification that we have received your election form and does not mean that your options have been amended or that you will be entitled to any cash payment. Your options that are accepted will be amended on the same day as the expiration date, which is scheduled to be July 13, 2007, unless we extend the offer.

2. Withdrawal.

If you have previously elected to accept the offer with respect to your eligible options, you may withdraw that election with respect to some or all of the options at any time before the expiration date, which is scheduled to be 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on July 13, 2007, unless we extend the offer or we have not accepted your options by 6:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on August 10, 2007. If we extend the offer, you may withdraw your options at any time until the extended expiration date. Although we intend to accept all options with respect to which valid elections have been made promptly after the expiration of the offer, if we have not accepted your options by 6:00 p.m., Eastern Time on August 10, 2007, you may withdraw your options at any time thereafter.

To validly withdraw some or all of the options with respect to which you have previously chosen to accept the offer, you must, in accordance with the instructions of the withdrawal form, deliver to Christine C. Moran

either via facsimile at (203) 661-4106, or via e-mail to cmoran@gwrr.com, or by hand to Christine C. Moran at Genesee & Wyoming Inc., 66 Field Point Road, Greenwich, Connecticut 06830, a signed and dated withdrawal form with the required information, while you still have the right to withdraw the options. Any options you do not withdraw will remain bound pursuant to your prior election form. You may change your mind as many times as you wish, but you will be bound by the last properly submitted election or withdrawal form we receive before the expiration date. Christine C. Moran must receive the properly completed and signed withdrawal form before the expiration date.

3. Elections.

If you intend to accept the offer with respect to an eligible option, you must accept the offer with respect to all of the shares subject to such option, except as noted herein. You may not pick and choose among the shares subject to an eligible option with respect to which you choose to accept the offer. If you have previously exercised a portion of an eligible option, your election will apply to the portion of such option that remains outstanding and unexercised as of the expiration date.

4. Signatures on this Election Form.

If this election form is signed by the holder of the options, the signature must correspond with the name and/or signature in the option agreement (award notice) or agreements to which the options are subject. If your name has been legally changed since your option agreement was signed, please submit proof of the legal name change.

If this election form is signed by a trustee, executor, administrator, guardian, attorney-in-fact, officer of a corporation or other person acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, that person should so indicate when signing, and proper evidence satisfactory to the Company of the authority of that person to act in that capacity must be submitted with this election form.

Our determination of these matters will be final and binding on all parties. We reserve the right to reject any election form, withdrawal form or any options with respect to which elections have been made that we determine are not in appropriate form or that we determine are unlawful to accept. We will accept all eligible options with respect to which proper elections are made that are not validly withdrawn. We also reserve the right to waive any of the conditions of the offer or any defect or irregularity in any election of any particular options or for any particular option holder, provided that if we grant any such waiver, it will be granted with respect to all option holders and options with respect to which

elections have been made. No elections will be deemed to have been properly made until all defects or irregularities have been cured by the option holder or waived by us. Neither we nor any other person is obligated to give notice of any defects or irregularities in elections, nor will anyone incur any liability for failure to give any notice.
