This Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D (“Amendment No. 3”) amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 11, 2021 (together with Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D filed on November 9, 2021, Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D filing on January 7, 2022, and this Amendment No. 3, this “statement”) relating to shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), of FreightCar America, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). Item 2, Item 3, Item 6, and Item 7 are hereby amended and supplemented as set forth below.

Item 2. Identity and Background.

Schedule A to the statement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with Schedule A attached to this Amendment No. 3.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Item 3 is hereby supplemented by adding the following additional information:

No cash consideration was required to be paid by PIMCO or any of the PIMCO Entities in connection with the acquistion of the April 2022 Warrant (as defined below) pursuant to the terms of the Amendment.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

Item 6 is hereby supplemented by adding the following additional information:

April 2022 Warrant

Pursuant to the Amendment, in the event that the Additional Loan (as defined in the Amendment) is not repaid in full by March 31, 2022, the Issuer shall issue to COF and/or an affiliate of COF a warrant (the “April 2022 Warrant”) to purchase a number of shares of Common Stock equal to 5% of the Common Stock Deemed Outstanding (as such term is defined in the April 2022 Warrant Acquisition Agreement (as defined below)).

As of March 31, 2022, the Additional Loan was not repaid in full and, therefore, on April 4, 2022, pursuant to the Amendment and a warrant acquisition agreement, dated as of April 4, 2022 (the “April 2022 Warrant Acquisition Agreement”), the Issuer issued the April 2022 Warrant to OC III LVS XXVIII LP, an affiliate of COF (“OC XXVIII”). The April 2022 Warrant has an exercise price of $0.01 and a term of ten (10) years.

The issuance of the April 2022 Warrant was made in reliance on the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, because the offer and sale of such securities do not involve a “public offering” as defined in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

April 2022 Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the issuance of the April 2022 Warrant, the Issuer and OC XXVIII entered into a registration rights agreement (the “April 2022 Registration Rights Agreement”) on April 4, 2022. Pursuant to the April 2022 Registration Rights Agreement, OC XXVIII may deliver to the Issuer a written notice (a “Demand”) requiring the Issuer as soon as reasonably practicable after receiving the Demand, but not more than sixty calendar days following the receipt of the Demand, to file a registration statement (the “April 2022 Demand Registration Statement”) with respect to all or a portion of the Registrable Shares (as defined in the April 2022 Registration Rights Agreement) with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Issuer agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the April 2022 Demand Registration Statement continuously effective (including the preparation and filing of any amendments and supplements necessary for that purpose) until the date on which all of the Registrable Shares registered for resale have been sold under the April 2022 Demand Registration Statement or such earlier date on which all Registrable Shares are freely tradeable in a single transaction pursuant to Rule 144.

In certain circumstances, and as described in the April 2022 Registration Rights Agreement, OC XXVIII will have (i) piggyback registration rights with respect to the Registrable Shares and (ii) the right to request that the Issuer initiate an Underwritten Offering (as defined in the April 2022 Registration Rights Agreement) of Registrable Shares.
