the Schedule TO) by (i) Foster Thomas Company, a West Virginia corporation (the Purchaser) and

Products, Inc., a West Virginia corporation (Portec), at a purchase price of $11.71 per Share,
net to the seller in cash, without interest thereon and less any applicable withholding or stock
transfer taxes, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase
dated February 26, 2010 (which, together with any amendments and supplements thereto, collectively
constitute the Offer to Purchase) and in the related Letter of Transmittal, copies of which are
filed with the Schedule TO as Exhibits (a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(B), respectively. Capitalized terms
used and not otherwise defined in this Amendment have the meanings assigned to such terms in the
Schedule TO or the Offer to Purchase. This Amendment is being filed on behalf of the Purchaser and
Parent. Pursuant to General Instruction F to Schedule TO, the information contained in the Offer to

Item 11. Additional Information.
Item 11 (a)(5) of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following
paragraph:
On March 2, 2010, Portec was served with a lawsuit related to the Offer and the Merger which
was filed on February 19, 2010 in the Circuit Court of Kanawha County, West Virginia, and captioned
Barbara Petkus v. Portec Rail Products, Inc., et al., against Portec and each of Portecs
directors, on behalf of a purported class of public stockholders of Portec. The complaint alleges
that the director defendants breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the Offer and the
Merger. Based on these allegations, the plaintiffs seek, among other relief, preliminary and
permanent injunctive relief against the Offer and the Merger, direction to the director defendants
to properly exercise their fiduciary duties with respect to the Offer and Merger or another
transaction, and the costs and expenses of the action, including reasonable allowance for
attorneys and experts fees and expenses. On February 25, 2010, a request for production of
documents relating to the Offer and the Merger was filed in the Circuit Court of Kanawha County,
West Virginia in connection with the above action. A copy of the complaint is filed as Exhibit
(a)(5)(D) hereto, and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing summary is qualified in
its entirety by reference to Exhibit (a)(5)(D).
