For the purposes of calculations under this Indenture (including calculations of principal amount under Articles IV, V, VI, VII and XVIII), the principal amount of any series of bonds Outstanding hereunder payable in a foreign coin or currency payable in a foreign coin or currency shall be based upon the Federal noon buying rate of such foreign coin or currency in The City of New York, New York (or, if such noon buying rate is not available to the signers of the Officers’ Certificate forming a part of the application for the authentication and delivery under this Indenture for the initial authentication and delivery of such bonds, then such other rate as may be determined by the signers of such certificate on a commercially reasonable basis) on a date within ten (10) days prior to the date of such application for authentication and delivery (and set forth in the Officers’ Certificate forming a part of such application) or on such other basis as may be provided in the supplemental indenture creating such series. Such principal amount in coin or currency of the United States of America shall not be changed for subsequent calculations of the principal amount of such bonds after the initial determination, but the determination of interest shall be recalculated as required from time to time by the provisions of Section 1.07 hereof.
Section 2.02. Any series of bonds may be executed, authenticated and delivered originally as coupon bonds and/or as fully registered bonds, of such denomination or denominations as the Board of Directors of the Company may from time to time authorize.
Section 2.03. Unless otherwise specifically provided with respect to a series of bonds, fully registered bonds shall be dated as of the date of authentication. Unless other provisions (including, but not limited to, provisions establishing record dates for the payment of interest) are specifically provided with respect to a series of bonds, fully registered bonds shall bear interest from the beginning of the current interest period for that series; provided, however, that if any fully registered bond shall be authenticated and delivered upon a transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, any bond or bonds upon which interest is in default, it shall be dated so that such bond shall bear interest from the last preceding date to which interest shall have been paid on the bond or bonds in respect of which such fully registered bond shall have been delivered, unless otherwise specifically provided with respect to a series of bonds. The coupon bonds of each series of bonds issued hereunder shall be dated as of such date as may be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company and designated in the form established for such series.
Section 2.04. Any bond may have imprinted thereon or included therein any legend or legends required in order to comply with any law or with any rules or regulations made pursuant thereto or with the rules or regulations of any stock exchange or to conform to usage, and the Board of Directors of the Company by Resolution may at any time amend the form of any legend to be used on bonds then Outstanding so as to comply with any such law, rule or regulation, or so as to conform to usage.
Section 2.05. Unless otherwise specifically provided with respect to a series of bonds, in all cases in which the privilege of exchanging bonds exists and is exercised, the bonds to be exchanged shall be surrendered at such place or places as shall be designated by the Board of Directors of the Company for the purpose, with all unmatured coupons appertaining thereto (in the case of coupon bonds) and the Trustee shall authenticate and the Company shall deliver in exchange therefor the bond or bonds which the bondholder making the exchange shall be entitled to receive, having attached thereto, in the case of coupon bonds, all unmatured coupons appertaining thereto. In case at the time of any such exchange, interest on the bonds of such series is in default, all coupon bonds of such series surrendered for exchange and delivered in exchange shall have attached thereto all matured coupons in default unless such coupons have heretofore been previously surrendered. All bonds so surrendered for exchange shall be in bearer form, or if registered, accompanied, by a written instrument or instruments of transfer wherever required by the Company duly executed by the registered owner or his duly authorized attorney. All bonds so surrendered for exchange and the coupons appertaining thereto shall be cancelled by the Trustee. Upon any transfer of bonds as permitted by the next succeeding Section, and upon any exchange of bonds, the Company may make a charge therefor sufficient to reimburse it for any tax or taxes or other governmental charge and in addition may charge a sum not exceeding a sum, if any, provided as a term of such series of bonds for each bond authenticated and delivered upon any such transfer or exchange, which sum shall be paid by the party requesting such transfer or exchange as a condition precedent to the exercise of the privilege of making such transfer or exchange. The Company shall not be required to make transfers or exchanges of bonds of any series for a period of fifteen (15) days next preceding any interest payment date of said series (unless such series has a record date for the payment of interest), or next preceding any designation of bonds of said series to be redeemed. The Company shall not be required to make transfers or exchanges of any bonds designated in whole or in part for redemption.
Section 2.06. The Company shall keep, at such place or places as shall be designated for the purpose, books for the registration and transfer of bonds issued hereunder, which, at all reasonable times, shall be open for inspection by the Trustee; and upon presentation for such purpose at any such place or places, the Company will register or cause to be registered therein, and permit to be transferred thereon, under such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, any bonds issued under this Indenture and entitled to registration or transfer at such office. Upon the registration of any coupon bond as to principal, the fact of such registration shall be noted on such bond. Upon the transfer of any registered bond, the Trustee shall authenticate and the Company shall issue in the name of the transferee or transferees a new registered bond or new registered bonds of the same series for a like principal amount. All registered bonds so surrendered for transfer shall be cancelled by the Trustee.
Section 2.07. All bonds authenticated and delivered hereunder shall, from time to time, be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, President or one of its Vice Presidents, whose signature may be facsimile, and its corporate seal shall be thereon impressed or imprinted and attested by its Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries, whose signature may be facsimile. The coupons to be attached to coupon bonds shall bear the facsimile signature of the Treasurer or any Assistant Treasurer of the Company. In case any of the officers who shall have signed any bonds or attested the seal thereon, or whose facsimile signature appears on any coupon, shall cease to be such officer of the Company before the bonds so signed and/or sealed shall have been actually authenticated
and delivered by the Trustee or issued by the Company, such bonds nevertheless may be authenticated, delivered and/or issued with the same force and effect as though the person or persons who signed such bonds and/or attested the seal thereon and/or whose facsimile signature appears on any coupon had not ceased to be such officer or officers of the Company. Before authenticating any coupon bonds, the Trustee shall cut off and cancel all matured coupons thereto attached (except as otherwise provided or permitted in Sections 2.05 and 2.09 hereof).
Section 2.08. There may be authenticated and delivered and issued from time to time in lieu of (or in exchange for) any definitive bond or bonds issued or issuable under this Indenture one or more temporary bonds substantially of the tenor of the bonds hereinbefore described, with or without one or more coupons, and with or without the privilege of registration as to principal only, or as to both principal and interest, and such temporary bond or bonds may be in such denomination or denominations as the Board of Directors of the Company may determine. Until a definitive bond or bonds secured hereby are delivered in exchange therefor, each such temporary bond or bonds shall be entitled to the Lien and benefit of this Indenture. Upon the exchange by the Company of definitive coupon bonds or definitive fully registered bonds for temporary bonds (which exchange the Company shall make on request of, and without charge to, the holder, when definitive bonds are ready for delivery) such temporary bond or bonds and any unmatured coupons appertaining thereto shall be cancelled by the Trustee. When and as interest is paid upon any unregistered temporary bond without coupons, the fact of such payment shall be noted thereon and interest due on any temporary bond which is represented by a coupon shall be paid only upon presentation and surrender of such coupon for cancellation. Unregistered temporary bonds without coupons of any series shall bear interest from the beginning of the current interest period for bonds of that series in which such unregistered temporary bonds without coupons shall be authenticated. The holder of one or more temporary bonds may exchange the same on the surrender thereof, for cancellation, in bearer form with all unmatured coupons, if any, appertaining thereto, or, if registered, accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer, wherever required by the Company, duly executed by the registered owner or by his duly authorized attorney, at the office or agency of the Company, and shall be entitled to receive a temporary bond or bonds of the same series of like aggregate principal amount of such other denominations as the Board of Directors of the Company may determine to issue in exchange.
Section 2.09. Upon receipt by the Company and the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to them of the theft, loss, destruction or mutilation of any bond Outstanding hereunder and/or the coupons appertaining thereto, and of indemnity satisfactory to them, and upon payment, if the Company or the Trustee shall require it, of a reasonable charge and upon reimbursement to the Company and the Trustee of all reasonable expense incident thereto, and upon surrender and cancellation of such bond, if mutilated, and the coupons appertaining thereto, if any, the Company may execute, and the Trustee shall thereupon authenticate and deliver, a new bond of like tenor and of the same series with all unpaid coupons, if any, appertaining thereto in lieu of such stolen, lost, destroyed or mutilated bond and coupons, if any, or if any such bond or any coupon shall have matured or be about to mature, instead of issuing a substituted bond or coupon the Company may pay the same without surrender thereof. Any indemnity bond shall name as obligees the Company, the Trustee, and if requested by the Company, any paying agent.
Section 2.10. No bond shall be secured hereby unless there shall be endorsed thereon the certificate of the Trustee, substantially in the form hereinbefore recited, that it is one of the bonds (or temporary bonds) of the series therein designated, herein described or provided for; and such certificate on any such bond shall be conclusive evidence that such bond has been duly authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and when delivered by the Company will be secured hereby.
Section 2.11. The Company may provide for the payment of principal of and/or interest on bonds of any series at one or more places in foreign countries, and/or in the coin or currency of any foreign nation.

(a)The Company hereby covenants that it will keep an office or agency, while any of the bonds issued hereunder are Outstanding, at any and all places at which the principal of or interest on any of said bonds and coupons appurtenant thereto shall be payable, where bonds entitled to be registered, transferred, exchanged, or converted may be presented or surrendered for registration, transfer, exchange or conversion, where notices, presentations and demands to or upon the Company in respect of such bonds or coupons as may be payable at such places or in respect of this Indenture may be given or made, and for the payment of the principal thereof and interest and premium, if any, thereon. The Company will from time to time give the Trustee written notice of the location of such office or offices or agency or agencies, and in case the Company shall fail to maintain such office or offices or agency or agencies or to give the Trustee written notice of the location thereof, then in addition to any other remedy or right arising as a result of the violation of the covenants contained in this Section, the Company agrees that any such notice, presentation or demand in respect of said bonds or coupons or of this Indenture may be given or made, unless other provision is expressly made herein, to or upon the Trustee at its principal office, and the Company hereby authorizes such presentation and demand to be made to and such notice to be served on the Trustee in either of such events and the principal of and interest and premium, if any, on said bonds shall in such event be payable at said office of the Trustee.
(b)The Company hereby covenants that, if it shall appoint a paying agent other than the Trustee, such paying agent shall meet the financial qualifications of Section 9.03(a) and the Company will cause such paying agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such paying agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section, (1) that such paying agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of the bondholders or the Trustee all sums held by such paying agent for the payment of the principal of or interest on the bonds (and premium, if any); and (2) that such paying agent shall give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company in the making of any deposit with it for the payment of the principal of or interest on the bonds (and premium, if any), and of any default by the Company in the making of any such payment. Such paying agent shall not be obligated to segregate such sums from other funds of such paying agent except to the extent required by law.
(c)The Company hereby covenants that, if the Company acts as its own paying agent, it will, on or before each due date of each installment of principal or interest on the bonds, set aside and segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the bondholders or the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay such principal or interest so becoming due on the bonds (and premium, if any) and will notify the Trustee of such action, or of any failure to take such action.
(d)Anything in this Section to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining a release or satisfaction of this Indenture or for any other reason, pay or cause to be paid to the Trustee all sums held in trust by it or any paying agent as required by this Section, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the trusts in this Indenture contained.
(e)Anything in this Section to the contrary notwithstanding, the holding of sums in trust as provided in this Section is subject to the provisions of Section 19.03 hereof.
Section 9.04. The Company hereby covenants that it will pay all taxes and assessments and other governmental charges lawfully levied or assessed upon the Mortgaged and Pledged Property, or upon any part thereof or upon any income therefrom or upon the interest of the Trustee in the Mortgaged and Pledged Property, before the same shall become delinquent, and will duly observe and conform to all valid requirements of any governmental authority relative to any of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property, and all covenants, terms and conditions upon or under which any of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property is held; that it will not suffer any lien to be hereafter created upon the Mortgaged and Pledged Property, or any part thereof, or the income therefrom, prior to the Lien hereof, other than Excepted Encumbrances, and other than, in the case of property hereafter acquired, vendors’ liens, purchase money mortgages and any lien thereon at the time of the acquisition thereof and within four (4) months after any lawful claim or demand for labor, materials, supplies or other objects has become delinquent which if unpaid would or might by law be given precedence over the Lien of this Indenture as a lien or charge upon any of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property, or the income therefrom, it will pay or cause to be discharged or make adequate provisions to satisfy or discharge the same; provided, however, that nothing in this Section contained shall require the Company to observe or conform to any requirement of governmental authority or to cause to be paid or discharged, or to make provision for, any such lien or charge, or to pay any such tax, assessment or governmental charge so long as the validity thereof shall be contested in good faith and by appropriate legal proceedings; and provided that nothing in this Section contained shall require the Company to pay, discharge or make provisions for any tax, assessment or other governmental charge, the validity of which shall not be so contested if adequate security for the payment of such tax, assessment or other governmental charge and for any damages which may reasonably be anticipated from failure to pay the same shall be given to the Trustee; and that, save as aforesaid, it will not suffer any matter or thing whereby the Lien hereof might or could be impaired in contravention of the provisions hereof.
Section 9.05. The Company hereby covenants that it will keep or cause to be kept all the property subject to the Lien hereof insured against fire, flood, lightning, windstorm, hail, explosion and other risks to the extent that property of similar character is usually so insured by companies similarly situated and operating like properties (all such risks being hereinafter referred to in this Section as the “Specified Hazards”), to a reasonable amount, by reputable insurance companies, any loss, except as to materials and supplies and except as to any particular loss less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), to be made payable, unless otherwise required by applicable provisions promulgated by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, or any successor regulatory agency, including the requirements of Section 50.54 of the Regulations of such Commission, to the Trustee as the interest of the Trustee may appear and/or to the holder of any other lien prior hereto upon property subject to the Lien hereof, if the terms thereof require losses so to be made payable; or that it will, in lieu of or supplementing such insurance in whole or in part,
adopt some other method or plan of protection against loss by the Specified Hazards at least equal in protection to the method or plan of protection against loss by the Specified Hazards of companies similarly situated and operating properties subject to similar hazards, and that if it shall adopt such other method or plan, it will, except as to materials and supplies and except as to any particular loss less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), pay to the Trustee, unless otherwise required by applicable provisions promulgated by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, or any successor regulatory agency, including the requirements of Section 50.54 of the Regulations of such Commission, on account of any loss sustained by reason of the destruction or damage of such property by any of the Specified Hazards, an amount of cash equal to such loss less any amounts otherwise paid to the Trustee, or to the trustee or other holder of any mortgage or any other lien prior hereto upon property subject to the Lien hereof, if the terms thereof require losses so to be paid. Any amounts of cash so required to be paid by the Company pursuant to any such method or plan shall for the purposes of this Indenture be deemed to be proceeds of insurance. In case of the adoption of such other method or plan of protection, the Company shall also furnish to the Trustee a certificate of an actuary or other qualified person appointed by the Company with respect to the adequacy of such method or plan. There shall be delivered to the Trustee, on or before October 1 of each year and also whenever the Trustee shall make request therefor, a detailed statement, signed by the President, a Vice President, the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer of the Company, of any insurance policies covering the Specified Hazards then outstanding and in force upon the aforesaid property, or any part thereof, including, or by reference to former statements including, the names of the insurance companies which have issued the policies and the amounts and expiration dates thereof, together with a detailed statement, signed by the President, a Vice President, the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer of the Company, of such other method or plan, if any.
All moneys paid to the Trustee by the Company in accordance with this Section or received by the Trustee as proceeds of any insurance against loss by any of the Specified Hazards shall, subject to the requirements of any other lien prior hereto upon property subject to the Lien hereof, be held by the Trustee and, subject as aforesaid, shall be paid by it to the Company to reimburse the Company for an equal amount spent in the rebuilding or renewal of the property destroyed or damaged, upon receipt by the Trustee of (1) an Officers’ Certificate requesting such reimbursement, (2) an Engineer’s Certificate stating the amounts so expended and the nature of such rebuilding or renewal and the fair value to the Company of the property rebuilt or renewed and if
(A)within six (6) months prior to the date of acquisition thereof by the Company, such property has been used or operated by a person or persons other than the Company, in a business similar to that in which it has been or is to be used or operated by the Company, and
(B)the fair value to the Company of such property as set forth in such Engineer’s Certificate is not less than Twenty-five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) and not less than one per centum (1%) of the aggregate principal amount of the bonds at the time Outstanding under this Indenture, the Engineer making such certificate shall be an Independent Engineer, and (3) an Opinion of Counsel that the property so rebuilt or renewed is subject to the Lien hereof to the same extent as was the property so destroyed or damaged; provided, however, that to the extent that moneys paid by the Trustee to the Company for reimbursement, as aforesaid, shall represent the proceeds of property that was not Funded Property destroyed or damaged by any of the Specified Hazards, the property so rebuilt or renewed (for which reimbursement is so made), shall not be deemed to be Funded Property.
Any such money not so applied within eighteen (18) months after its receipt by the Trustee, or in respect of which notice in writing of intention to apply the same to the work of rebuilding or renewal
then in progress and uncompleted shall not have been given to the Trustee by the Company within such eighteen (18) months, or which the Company shall at any time notify the Trustee is not to be so applied, shall thereafter be withdrawn, used or applied in the manner, to the extent and for the purposes and subject to the conditions provided in Section 11.05 hereof.
Anything in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may have insurance policies covering any of the Specified Hazards with a deductible provision in a dollar amount per occurrence not exceeding Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) or three per centum (3%) of the bonds Outstanding hereunder on the date such policy goes into effect if such three per centum (3%) is in excess of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000); provided, however, such dollar amount may be exceeded to the extent such dollar amount per occurrence is below the deductible amount in effect as to such insurance on property of similar character insured by companies similarly situated and operating like property.
The Company hereby further covenants that it will procure and maintain insurance against public liability claims for personal injury, death or property damage suffered by others upon or in or about any premises occupied by it or occurring as a result of the operation of its business, and workmen’s compensation or similar insurance as may be required under federal law or the laws of the states of Mississippi or Arkansas, in each case from reputable insurance companies in such amounts and with such terms as are comparable to companies similarly situated and operating like properties.
Section 9.06. The Company will not, except as herein permitted, do or suffer any act or thing whereby the Mortgaged and Pledged Property might or could be impaired; provided, however, that the Company shall not be deemed, for purposes of this Section, to have suffered the Mortgaged and Pledged Property to be impaired if the plant account on the books of the Company is reduced solely as a result of or to reflect action of any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over the rates and services of the Company mandating or requiring a direct or indirect disallowance of costs for ratemaking purposes. The Company will at all times maintain, preserve and keep the Mortgaged and Pledged Property, as an operating system or systems, in good repair, working order and condition. The Company will from time to time make all needful and proper repairs, replacements, additions, betterments and improvements, so that the operations and business of and pertaining to the Mortgaged and Pledged Property, as an operating system or systems, shall at all times be conducted properly and advantageously; and whenever any portion of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property shall have been worn out or destroyed or shall have become obsolete or otherwise unfit for use, the Company will procure substitutes of at least equal utility and efficiency, so that at all times the efficiency of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property, as an operating system or systems, shall be fully maintained.
Nothing herein contained, however, shall be held to prevent the Company from permanently discontinuing the operation of or reducing the capacity of any of its plants or properties, if, in the judgment of the Company, any such action which affects the Mortgaged and Pledged Property is necessary or desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company, or if the Company is ordered so to do by regulatory authority having jurisdiction in the premises, or if the Company intends to sell or dispose of the same and within a reasonable time shall endeavor to effectuate such sale; nor shall anything herein contained be construed to prevent the Company from taking such action with respect to the use of its plants and properties as is proper under the circumstances, including the cessation or omission to exercise rights, permits, licenses, privileges or franchises which, in the judgment of the Company, can no longer be profitably exercised or availed of; provided, however, the Company covenants that it will, within sixty (60) days after its determination permanently to discontinue the operation of any of its plants or properties subject to the Lien of this Indenture of a Cost, determined as provided in Section 1.04 hereof, in any one
case in excess of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) or in the aggregate in any period of twelve (12) consecutive calendar months in excess of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000), furnish the Trustee for information purposes with an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the Cost, as so determined, to the Company of the plants, or properties, the operation of which the Company shall have determined so to discontinue.
Whenever (but not more often than once in any period of five (5) years) the holders of at least twenty-five per centum (25%) in principal amount of the bonds Outstanding hereunder shall deliver to the Trustee and to the Company a written statement that they have reasonable grounds to believe that the Mortgaged and Pledged Property has not been adequately maintained, as an operating system or systems, in good repair, working order and condition and request the Company to furnish to the Trustee an Independent Engineer’s Certificate stating whether or not the Mortgaged and Pledged Property, as an operating system or systems, has been maintained in good repair, working order and condition, and whether or not there is any property subject to the Lien of this Indenture which should be retired on the books of the Company as having ceased permanently to be used or useful in the business of the Company and which has not been so retired, the Company shall cause such Independent Engineer’s Certificate to be furnished to the Trustee within a reasonable time after such request. If such Independent Engineer shall report that the Mortgaged and Pledged Property, as an operating system or systems, has not been maintained in good repair, working order and condition, he shall state clearly in his report the character and extent of, and, if longer than one year, the time reasonably necessary to make good such deficiency and, if he shall report that there is property subject to the Lien of this Indenture which should be retired on the books of the Company as having ceased permanently to be used or useful in the business of the Company and which has not been so retired, his report shall briefly describe such property. Said report shall be placed on file by the Trustee and shall be open to inspection by any bondholder at any reasonable time.
If the Company, within thirty (30) days after the filing of the report of such Independent Engineer, objects in writing delivered to the Trustee to the findings of such Independent Engineer as to the character and extent of such maintenance deficiency and/or to the property which should be retired upon the books of the Company, then the character and extent of such maintenance deficiency, if any, and/or the property, if any, so to be retired upon the books of the Company shall be forthwith referred to three arbitrators selected in the following manner: The Trustee, within ten (10) days after the expiration of said period of thirty (30) days, shall name one arbitrator and give notice of such selection to the Company. Within ten (10) days after receipt of such notice, the Company shall name one arbitrator and give notice of such selection to the Trustee, and failure so to do shall entitle the Trustee to name an arbitrator to represent the Company. The two thus selected shall, within ten (10) days after the appointment of the arbitrator representing the Company, select a third arbitrator, but if said arbitrators are unable, within said ten (10) days, to agree upon such third arbitrator, then, upon the election of either the Company or the Trustee, any District Judge of the United States of America for the District in which the Trustee has its principal place of business may appoint such third arbitrator, upon application to said District Judge by either party after five (5) days notice thereof to the other party. The written decision of a majority of such arbitrators shall be filed as soon as practicable with the Trustee and a copy thereof delivered to the Company, and shall be binding upon the Trustee, the Company and the bondholders.
Within one year from the date of the report of such Independent Engineer or the date of such decision of arbitrators, whichever is later, or such longer period as may be reported by such Independent Engineer or the arbitrators, as the case may be, to be reasonably necessary to make good any such deficiency, no statement contained in any report of any Independent Engineer filed with the Trustee,
as hereinbefore in this Section provided, shall be deemed to be in any way evidence or proof of a failure to comply with the provisions of this Section.
The Company shall, with all reasonable speed, do or cause to be done such maintenance work as may be necessary to make good any such maintenance deficiency as shall have been determined to exist as hereinabove provided at the time of the report of such Independent Engineer or at the time of such decision of arbitrators, as the case may be, whereupon such Independent Engineer or such arbitrators, as the case may be (or, in case of his or their refusal or inability to act, some other Independent Engineer), shall report in writing to the Trustee whether such deficiency has been made good.
Unless the Trustee shall be so advised in writing by such Independent Engineer or arbitrators, as the case may be, within one (1) year from the date of the report of such Independent Engineer or the date of such decision of arbitrators, as the case may be, or such longer period as may be reported by such Independent Engineer or the arbitrators, as the case may be, to be reasonably necessary for the purpose, that such deficiency has in all material respects been made good, the Company shall be deemed to have defaulted in the due performance of the covenants of this Section, so far as concerns the maintenance of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property.
All expenses incurred pursuant to this Section shall be borne by the Company.
In the event that any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over the Company shall, by order or regulation, prohibit, in whole or in part, such expenditures for repairs and maintenance, then, upon filing with the Trustee a certified copy of such order or a copy of such regulation, as the case may be, the Company shall, so long as such order or such regulation remains in effect, be relieved from compliance with the covenants contained in this Section, in regard to the maintenance of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property, to the extent that such expenditures for repairs and maintenance shall be prohibited.
The Company covenants that it will promptly retire on its books of account any of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property included in plant account (except real estate held for the purpose of sale or resale) that has, in the opinion of the Company, ceased permanently to be used or useful in its business or which pursuant to the provisions of this Section any Independent Engineer has reported to the Company more than thirty (30) days prior thereto (without written objection thereto having been delivered to the Trustee by the Company), or any arbitrators have determined, should be retired on the books of the Company as having ceased permanently to be used or useful in the business of the Company.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.06, nothing herein contained shall be held to require the Company to retire, other than solely for purposes of this Indenture, any of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property in the event that the Company is ordered not to retire such Mortgaged and Pledged Property by regulatory authority having jurisdiction in the premises.
Section 9.07. The Company hereby covenants that it will, subject to the provisions of Article XV hereof, at all times maintain its corporate existence and right to carry on business, and duly procure all renewals and extensions thereof, if and when any shall be necessary and, subject to the provisions of this Indenture, will use its best efforts to maintain, preserve and renew all the rights, powers, privileges and franchises owned by it, affecting the Mortgaged and Pledged Property.
Section 9.08. The Company hereby covenants that it will cause this Indenture and all indentures and instruments supplemental hereto or notices in respect thereof to be promptly recorded and filed and re-recorded and re-filed in such manner and in such places, as may be required by law in order fully to
preserve and protect the security of the bondholders and all rights of the Trustee, and will furnish to the Trustee:
(a)Promptly after the execution and delivery of this Indenture and of each supplemental indenture, an Opinion of Counsel either stating that in the opinion of such counsel this Indenture or such supplemental indenture or notice in respect thereof has been properly recorded and filed, so as to make effective the lien intended to be created thereby, and reciting the details of such action, or stating that in the opinion of such counsel no such action is necessary to make such lien effective. It shall be a compliance with this subdivision (a) if (1) the Opinion of Counsel herein required to be delivered to the Trustee shall state that this Indenture or such supplemental indenture or notice in respect thereof has been received for record or filing in each jurisdiction in which it is required to be recorded or filed and that, in the opinion of counsel (if such is the case), such receipt for record or filing makes effective the lien intended to be created by this Indenture or such supplemental indenture, and (2) such opinion is delivered to the Trustee within such time, following the date of the execution and delivery of this Indenture or such supplemental indenture, as shall be practicable having due regard to the number and distance of the jurisdictions in which this Indenture or such supplemental indenture is required to be recorded or filed.
(b)On or before February 1 of each year, beginning February 1, 1989, an Opinion of Counsel either stating that in the opinion of such counsel such action has been taken, since the date of the most recent Opinion of Counsel furnished pursuant to this subdivision (b) or the first Opinion of Counsel furnished pursuant to subdivision (a) of this Section, with respect to the recording, filing, re-recording, and re-filing of this instrument and each notice with respect thereto and of each indenture supplemental to this instrument, as is necessary to maintain the Lien hereof, and reciting the details of such action, or stating that in the opinion of such counsel no such action is necessary to maintain such lien.
The Company hereby covenants that it will execute and deliver such supplemental indenture or indentures and such further instruments and do such further acts as may be necessary or proper to carry out more effectually the purposes of this Indenture and to make subject to the Lien hereof any property hereafter acquired, made or constructed, intended to be subject to the Lien hereof, and to transfer to any new trustee or co-trustee or co-trustees, the estate, powers, instruments or funds held in trust hereunder.
Section 9.09. (a) The Company covenants and agrees that it will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee between February 15 and March 1 and between August 15 and September 1 in each year after July 1, 1988, and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require containing all the information in the possession or control of the Company or of its paying agents, as to the names and addresses of the holders of bonds obtained since the date as of which the next previous list, if any, was furnished. Any such list may be dated as of a date not more than fifteen (15) days prior to the time such information is furnished or caused to be furnished, and need not include information received after such date; and, provided, that the Company need not furnish or cause to be furnished any such list with respect to bonds with respect to which the Trustee maintains the books for the registration and transfer of bonds as provided for in Section 2.06.
(b)The Trustee shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably practicable, all information as to the names and addresses of the holders of bonds (1) contained in the most recent list, if any, furnished to it as provided in subdivision (a) of this Section, (2) received by it in the capacity of paying agent hereunder, and (3) filed with it within two (2) preceding years pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (2) of subdivision (c) of Section 16.13 hereof. The Trustee may (1) destroy any list furnished to it as provided in subdivision (a) of this Section upon receipt of a new list so furnished; (2) destroy any
information received by it as paying agent upon delivery to itself as Trustee, not earlier than forty-five (45) days after an interest payment date of the bonds, of a list containing the names and addresses of the holders of bonds obtained from such information since the delivery of the next previous list, if any; (3) destroy any list delivered to itself as Trustee which was compiled from information received by it as paying agent upon the receipt of a new list so delivered; and (4) destroy any information received by it pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (2) of subdivision (c) of Section 16.13 hereof, but not until two (2) years after such information has been filed with it.
(c)In case three or more holders of bonds (hereinafter referred to as “Applicants”) apply in writing to the Trustee, and furnish to the Trustee reasonable proof that each such Applicant has owned a bond for a period of at least six (6) months preceding the date of such application, and such application states that the Applicants desire to communicate with other holders of bonds with respect to their rights under this Indenture or under the bonds, and is accompanied by a copy of the form of proxy or other communication which such Applicants propose to transmit, then the Trustee shall, within five (5) business days after the receipt of such application, at its election either
i.afford to such Applicants access to the information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of subdivision (b) of this Section; or
ii.inform such Applicants as to the approximate number of holders of bonds whose names and addresses appear in the information preserved at the time by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of subdivision (b) of this Section, and as to the approximate cost of mailing to such bondholders the form of proxy or other communication, if any, specified in such application.
If the Trustee shall elect not to afford to such Applicants access to such information, the Trustee shall, upon the written request of such Applicants, mail to each bondholder whose name and address appears in the information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of subdivision (b) of this Section, a copy of the form of proxy or other communication which is specified in such request, with reasonable promptness after a tender to the Trustee of the material to be mailed and of payment or provision for the payment of the reasonable expenses of mailing, unless within five (5) days after such tender the Trustee shall mail to such Applicants and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission together with a copy of the material to be mailed a written statement to the effect that, in the opinion of the Trustee, such mailing would be contrary to the best interests of the holders of bonds, or would be in violation of applicable law. Such written statement shall specify the basis of such opinion. If said Commission, after opportunity for a hearing upon the objections specified in the written statement so filed, shall enter an order refusing to sustain any of such objections, or if said Commission shall find, after notice and opportunity for a hearing, that all the objections so sustained have been met and shall enter an order so declaring, the Trustee shall mail copies of such material to all such bondholders with reasonable promptness after the entry of such order and the renewal of such tender; otherwise the Trustee shall be relieved of any obligation or duty to such Applicants respecting their application.
(d)Neither the Trustee nor any paying agent shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of information as to names and addresses or the mailing of any material pursuant to any request made under subdivision (c) of this Section.
Section 9.10. The Company covenants and agrees:
(1)to file with the Trustee within fifteen (15) days after the Company is required to file the same with the Securities and Exchange Commission, copies of the annual reports and of the information, documents, and other reports (or copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as such Commission may from time to time by rules and regulations prescribe) which the Company may be required to file with such Commission pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; or, if the Company is not required to file information, documents, or reports pursuant to either of such sections, then to file with the Trustee and the Securities and Exchange Commission, in accordance with rules and regulations prescribed from time to time by said Commission, such of the supplementary and periodic information, documents, and reports which may be required pursuant to Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, in respect of a security listed and registered on a national securities exchange as may be prescribed from time to time in such rules and regulations;
(2)to file with the Trustee and the Securities and Exchange Commission, in accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed from time to time by said Commission, such additional information, documents and reports with respect to compliance by the Company with the conditions and covenants provided for in this Indenture as may be required from time to time by such rules and regulations, including, in the case of annual reports, if required by such rules and regulations, certificates or opinions of independent public accountants, conforming to the requirements of Section 19.05 hereof, as to compliance with conditions or covenants, compliance with which is subject to verification by accountants, but no such certificate or opinion shall be required as to (A) dates or periods not covered by annual reports required to be filed by the Company, in the case of conditions precedent which depend upon a state of facts as of a date or dates or for a period or periods different from that required to be covered by such annual reports, or (B) the amount and value of Property Additions, except as provided in Section 5.05 hereof, or (C) the adequacy of depreciation, maintenance, or repairs; and
(3)to transmit to the holders of bonds, in the manner and to the extent provided in subdivision (c) of Section 16.13 hereof with respect to reports pursuant to subdivision (a) of Section 16.13 hereof, such summaries of any information, documents and reports required to be filed by the Company pursuant to subdivisions (1) and (2) of this Section as may be required by the rules and regulations prescribed from time to time by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Section 9.11. The Company hereby covenants that it will, in accordance with sound accounting practices, keep books of record and account of all dealings or transactions of, or in relation to, the plants, properties, business and affairs of the Company.
The Company hereby covenants that it will not issue, or permit to be issued, any bonds hereunder in any manner other than in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and that it will faithfully observe and perform all the conditions, covenants and requirements of this Indenture and of all indentures supplemental hereto and of the bonds issued hereunder.
Section 9.12. Subject to the rights of the bondholders under the 1944 Mortgage, the Company hereby covenants that, upon the cancellation and discharge of any lien prior hereto (upon property subject to the Lien hereof), securing indebtedness, the Company will cause all cash, purchase money obligations and other property then held by the trustee or other holder of such lien, which
were received by such trustee or other holder by reason of the release of, or the purchase by a governmental authority or its designee of, or which represents the proceeds of the taking by eminent domain of, or insurance on, any of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property (including all proceeds of or substitution for any thereof) to be paid and/or delivered to and/or deposited with the Trustee hereunder, to be held as part of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property, any such cash and/or purchase money obligations constituting a part thereof to be paid over, withdrawn, used or applied in the manner, to the extent, and for the purposes and subject to the conditions provided in Section 11.05 hereof with respect to cash and purchase money obligations deposited under the provisions of Section 11.03 hereof, and any other property constituting a part thereof to be subject to use and release as provided with respect to such property in Article XI hereof. Nothing in this Indenture contained shall be deemed to limit the right of any successor to the Company under the provisions of Article XV hereof which shall not have caused this Indenture or any indenture executed as in Section 15.02 hereof provided to become a lien upon any of the properties or franchises of the successor corporation (except as contemplated by clauses (a), (b) and (c) of Section 15.03 hereof) to increase the indebtedness secured by lien upon any of its properties or franchises not subject to the Lien of this Indenture or of any such indenture executed as in Section 15.02 hereof provided.
Section 9.13.

REDEMPTION OR PURCHASE OF BONDS
Section 10.01. Such of the bonds of any series issued hereunder as are, by their terms, redeemable before maturity, may, at the option of the Company or pursuant to the requirements of this Indenture, be redeemed at such times, in such amounts and at such prices as may be specified therein and in accordance with the provisions of the three next succeeding Sections numbered from 10.02 to 10.04, both inclusive.
Section 10.02. If less than all the Outstanding bonds of any series are to be redeemed, the particular bonds to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee from the Outstanding bonds of such series which have not previously been called for redemption by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, special provisions for the selection of the particular bonds to be redeemed within a particular series may be provided by a supplemental indenture to this Indenture.
Unless otherwise provided as to a particular series of bonds, notice of intention to redeem to owners and/or holders of any bonds which are not registered as to principal and interest or principal only shall be given, by or on behalf of the Company, by publication in one Daily Newspaper of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, once before the date fixed for redemption, the publication to be at least thirty (30) days prior to the date fixed for redemption. If less than all bonds of any particular series are to be redeemed, unless otherwise provided as to a particular series of bonds, the numbers of any bonds to be redeemed which are not so registered shall be included in such notice and may be stated as follows: individually; in groups from one number to another number, both inclusive, except such as shall have been previously called for redemption or otherwise retired; or in any other way satisfactory to the Trustee.
Unless otherwise provided as to a particular series of bonds, notice of intention to redeem to the registered owner of any bond registered as to principal and interest or as to principal only which is to be redeemed in whole or part shall be mailed by or on behalf of the Company, not less than thirty (30) days before the date fixed for redemption, to him at his last address appearing upon the registry books.
Failure duly to give such notice by publication and/or by mailing to the owner or holder of any bond designated for redemption in whole or part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other bond.
Unless otherwise provided as to a particular series of bonds, if at the time of publication or mailing of any notice of redemption the Company shall not have deposited with the Trustee and/or irrevocably directed the Trustee to apply, from money held by it available to be used for the redemption of bonds, an amount in cash sufficient to redeem all of the bonds called for redemption, including accrued interest to such date fixed for redemption, such notice shall state that it is subject to the receipt of the redemption moneys by the Trustee before the date fixed for redemption (unless such redemption is mandatory) and such notice shall be of no effect unless such moneys are so received before such date.
The Trustee, upon the request of the Company evidenced by a Resolution delivered to the Trustee at least ten (10) days prior to the date on which notice of redemption must first be published or mailed (unless a shorter notice shall be accepted by the Trustee as sufficient) shall, for and on behalf of and in the name of the Company, call for redemption bonds secured hereby (whether or not the Trustee shall hold at the time of such call cash sufficient for such redemption) provided that, if cash sufficient for such purpose is not so held and such redemption is not mandatory, the notice shall state that it is subject to the receipt of the redemption moneys by the Trustee before the date fixed for redemption and such notice shall be of no effect unless such moneys are so received before such date.
Section 10.03. Publication of the notice of redemption, if required, having been completed as above provided, or if mailing is required, notice of redemption having been mailed, as in Section 10.02 hereof provided, and the Company having before the redemption date specified in the notice of redemption deposited with the Trustee (and/or having irrevocably directed the Trustee to apply, from money held by it available to be used for the redemption of bonds) an amount in cash sufficient to redeem all of the bonds called for redemption, including accrued interest, the bonds called for redemption shall become due and payable on such redemption date. The foregoing conditions for such bonds so becoming due and payable shall not apply to any redemption of bonds which is mandatory pursuant to other provisions of this Indenture.
Section 10.04. All moneys held by the Trustee for the redemption of bonds shall, subject to the provisions of Section 19.03 hereof, be held in trust for account of the holders of the bonds so to be redeemed, and shall be paid to them, respectively, upon presentation and surrender of said bonds, with (if required by the Company) all unmatured coupons, if any, appertaining thereto. Coupons maturing on or prior to the date fixed for redemption shall remain payable in accordance with their terms. On and after such date fixed for redemption, if the moneys for the redemption of the bonds to be redeemed shall be held by the Trustee for the purpose, such bonds shall cease to bear interest (except such bonds as shall have been properly presented for payment on, or within one year after, the date fixed for redemption and shall not have been paid) and shall cease to be entitled to the Lien of this Indenture and the coupons for interest, if any, maturing subsequent to the date fixed for redemption shall be void.
If any fully registered bond shall be called for redemption in part only, the notice of redemption shall specify the principal amount thereof to be redeemed, and such fully registered bond shall be presented for cancellation properly endorsed for transfer at or after the date fixed for the redemption of said bonds so called for redemption, and thereupon the payment with respect to said bond shall be made upon surrender of said bond so endorsed, and coupon bonds or fully registered bonds for the unpaid balance of the principal amount of the fully registered bond so presented and surrendered shall be executed by the Company and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee without charge therefor to the holder thereof.
Section 10.05. Except as may be otherwise provided in any indenture supplemental hereto, at any time, upon the request of the Company, expressed by an Officers’ Certificate, the Trustee shall, to the extent that
such bonds are available for such purchase, apply all or any part of the cash held by it under any provision of this Indenture, subject to the provisions of Sections 7.03, 9.12, and 10.04 hereof, or any cash deposited with it by the Company for the purpose, to the purchase (including a purchase from the Company) of bonds then Outstanding hereunder of such series as the Company may designate. Before making any such purchase the Trustee may, and upon request of the Company shall, by notice published once in one Daily Newspaper of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, advertise for written proposals (to be received by it on or before a specified date) to sell to it on or before a subsequent specified date bonds of the series designated by the Company then Outstanding hereunder, and the Trustee, to the extent, as nearly as is possible, of such funds then in its hands and requested by the Company to be so applied, shall purchase the bonds so offered at the price or prices most favorable to the Company, and reasonable notice shall be mailed by the Trustee to the holder or holders of the bonds whose proposals shall have been accepted. The Trustee shall, upon request of the Company, invite offers of bonds for sale to it in any other usual manner. The Trustee in its discretion may reject any or all proposals in whole or in part, and shall reject any or all proposals in whole or in part if on the same day after opening said proposals it has actual knowledge that it can purchase the requisite amount of such bonds or any part thereof at a price more favorable to the Company than it could by accepting said proposals. All offers by holders shall be subject to acceptance of a portion thereof unless otherwise expressed in the offers and all advertisements for written proposals shall so state.
Section 10.06. All bonds issued hereunder paid, retired or redeemed under any of the provisions of this Indenture or purchased by the Trustee as provided in Section 10.05 hereof and all appurtenant coupons, if any, shall forthwith be cancelled by the Trustee, and the Trustee may periodically destroy any such cancelled coupon bonds and deliver to the Company a certificate of such destruction and deliver any such cancelled fully registered bonds to the Company.

AND PLEDGED PROPERTY
Section 11.01. Unless one or more Defaults shall have occurred and be continuing, the Company shall be suffered and permitted to possess, use and enjoy the Mortgaged and Pledged Property (except: (a) such cash as is expressly required to be deposited with the Trustee; and (b) to the extent not herein otherwise provided, such securities as are expressly required to be deposited with the Trustee), and to receive, use and dispose of the tolls, rents, revenues, issues, earnings, income, products and profits thereof, with power in the ordinary course of business, freely and without let or hindrance on the part of the Trustee or of the bondholders, except as herein otherwise expressly provided to the contrary, to exercise any and all rights under choses in action, contracts, franchises and claims.

(1)sell or otherwise dispose of, free from the Lien of this Indenture, any machinery, apparatus, equipment, frames, towers, poles, wire, pipe, tools, implements, or furniture, or any other fixtures or personalty, then subject to the Lien hereof, which shall have become old, inadequate, obsolete, worn out, unfit, unadapted, unserviceable or
unnecessary for use in the operations of the Company upon replacing the same by, or substituting for the same, machinery, apparatus, equipment, frames, towers, poles, wire, pipe, tools, implements, or furniture, or any other fixtures or personalty, of at least equal value to that of the property sold or otherwise disposed of and subject to the Lien hereof, subject to no liens prior hereto except liens to which the property sold or otherwise disposed of was subject;
(2)cancel or make changes or alterations in or substitutions of any and all right of way grants; and
(3)surrender or assent to the modification or replacement of any right, power, franchise, license, governmental consent or permit under which it may be operating, provided that, in the opinion of the Board of Directors of the Company (such opinion to be stated in a Resolution to be filed with the Trustee), any such surrender, modification or replacement which affects the Mortgaged and Pledged Property is necessary or desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and is not materially detrimental to the interest of the bondholders.
Section 11.03. Unless the Company is in default in the payment of the interest on any bonds then Outstanding hereunder or one or more Defaults shall have occurred and be continuing, the Company may obtain the release of any of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property (except cash then held by the Trustee) (provided, however, that obligations secured by purchase money mortgage deposited with the Trustee shall not be released except as provided in Section 11.05 hereof), and the Trustee shall release all its right, title and interest in and to the same from the Lien hereof upon the application of the Company and receipt by the Trustee of the following:
(1)an Officers’ Certificate complying with the requirements of Section 19.05 hereof and describing in reasonable detail the property to be released and requesting such release, and stating that the Company is not in default in the payment of the interest on any bonds then Outstanding hereunder and that no Default has occurred and is continuing;
(2)an Engineer’s Certificate, made and dated not more than ninety (90) days prior to the date of such application, stating:
(a)that the Company has sold, leased, granted an undivided interest in, exchanged, dedicated or disposed of, or intends or has agreed to sell, lease, grant an undivided interest in, exchange, dedicate or dispose of, or that a governmental body or agency has exercised a right to order the Company to divest itself of, the property to be released;
(b)the fair value, in the opinion of the signers, of the property (or securities) to be released;
(c)the fair value, in the opinion of the signers, of any portion thereof that is Funded Property;
(d)that (except in any case where a governmental body or agency has exercised a right to order the Company to divest itself of such property) such
release is in the opinion of the signers desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company;
(e)the release value of the property to be released, being as to property owned by the Company on December 31, 1987, the depreciated book value thereof on that date, and as to any other property of the Company, the Cost thereof; and
(f)that in the opinion of the signers such release will not impair the security under this Indenture in contravention of the provisions hereof;
(3)an amount in cash (including any amount in cash deposited with the Trustee pursuant to the requirements of Section 9.12 hereof which the Company elects, as evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate, to be also credited against the cash to be held pursuant to this subdivision (3)), to be held by the Trustee as part of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property, equivalent to the amount, if any, by which the release value of the property to be released, as specified in the Engineer’s Certificate provided for in subdivision (2) above, exceeds the aggregate of the following items:
(a)the principal amount, subject to the limitations stated below in this subdivision (3), of any obligations delivered to the Trustee, to be held as part of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property, consisting of obligations secured by purchase money mortgage upon the property released;
(b)the Cost or fair value to the Company (whichever is less) of any Property Additions made the basis of the application which are not then Funded Property (after making any deductions and any additions pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.04 hereof) as shown by a further Engineer’s Certificate (made and dated not more than ninety (90) days prior to the date of such application) delivered to the Trustee; provided, however, that Property Additions acquired, made or constructed within ninety (90) days prior to the date of such application for release, or subsequently thereto, may, at the option of the Company, not have deducted therefrom the deductions nor added thereto the additions pursuant to Section 1.04 hereof;
(c)the principal amount of each bond or fraction of a bond to the authentication and delivery of which the Company shall be entitled under the provisions of Section 6.01 hereof, by virtue of compliance with all applicable provisions of Section 6.01 (except as hereinafter in this Section otherwise provided); provided, however, that (except as hereinafter in this Section otherwise provided) the application for such release shall operate as a waiver by the Company of such right to the authentication and delivery of each such bond or fraction thereof on the basis of which right such property is released and to such extent no such bond or fraction thereof may thereafter be authenticated and delivered hereunder, and any bonds which have been made the basis of any such right to the authentication and delivery of bond(s) or fraction of a bond so waived shall be deemed to have been made the basis of the release of such property;
(d)the principal amount, subject to the limitations stated below in this subdivision (3), of any obligations secured by purchase money mortgage upon the
property to be released and/or any amount in cash, that is evidenced to the Trustee by a certificate of the holder of a lien prior hereto, as the case may be, to have been received by it in accordance with the provisions of such lien prior hereto in consideration for the release of such property or any part thereof from such lien prior hereto; and
(e)any taxes and expenses incidental to such sale, exchange, dedication or disposal;
provided, however, that (i) no obligations secured by purchase money mortgage upon any property being released from the Lien hereof shall be used as a credit in any application for such release unless all obligations secured by such purchase money mortgage shall be delivered to the Trustee or to the trustee or other holder of a lien prior hereto; (ii) in case the total principal amount of obligations secured by purchase money mortgage upon property being released shall exceed seventy-five per centum (75%) of the fair value of such property, as specified in the Engineer’s Certificate provided for in subdivision (2) above, the aggregate credit which may be used pursuant to clause (a) and clause (d) of this subdivision (3) in respect of such obligations shall not exceed seventy-five per centum (75%) of the fair value of the property to be released, as specified in such Engineer’s Certificate; and (iii) no obligations secured by purchase money mortgage shall be used as a credit in any application for the release of property hereunder, if the aggregate credit in respect of such obligations to be used by the Company pursuant to clause (a) and clause (d) of this subdivision (3) plus the aggregate credits used by the Company pursuant to said clause (a) and clause (d) in all applications for the release of property theretofore released from the Lien hereof on the basis of purchase money obligations theretofore delivered to and then held by the Trustee or the trustee or other holder of a lien prior hereto shall, immediately after the release then being applied for, exceed fifteen per centum (15%) of the aggregate of (x) the principal amount of the bonds at such time Outstanding under this Indenture and (y) the principal amount of the bonds Outstanding, as therein defined, under the 1944 Mortgage;
(4)in the case where the release is on the basis of Property Additions, an Opinion of Counsel as required by Section 5.05(7) hereof;
(5)in case any obligations secured by purchase money mortgage upon the property to be released are included in the consideration for such release and are delivered to the Trustee or to the holder of a lien prior hereto in connection with any release of such property, an Opinion of Counsel stating that, in his or their opinion, such obligations are valid obligations enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting the enforcement of mortgagees’ and other creditors’ rights and by general equitable principles (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), and that the purchase money mortgage securing the same is sufficient to afford a valid purchase money lien upon the property to be released, subject to no lien prior thereto except Excepted Encumbrances and such liens, if any, as shall have existed thereon just prior to such release as liens prior to the Lien of this Indenture;
(6)in case the Trustee is requested to release any franchise, an Opinion of Counsel stating that in his or their opinion such release will not impair to any material extent the right of the Company to operate any of its remaining properties; and
(7)an Opinion of Counsel complying with the requirements of Section 19.05 hereof.
All purchase money obligations and the mortgages securing the same delivered to the Trustee pursuant to this Section shall be duly assigned to the Trustee. The Company shall cause any such purchase money mortgage and the assignment thereof to be promptly recorded and filed in such place or places as shall be required by law in order fully to preserve and protect the security afforded thereby and shall furnish to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that in the opinion of such counsel such purchase money mortgage and the assignment thereof have been properly recorded and filed so as to make effective the lien intended to be created thereby. Should any re-recording or re-filing be necessary at any time or from time to time, the Company shall likewise cause the same to be duly effected and shall, in each case, furnish to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel similar to the foregoing. The Trustee shall deliver to the Company any purchase money mortgage and/or assignment thereof whenever required for the purpose of recording or filing or re-recording or re-filing, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel.
In case the release of property is, in whole or in part, based upon Property Additions (as permitted under the provisions of clause (b) of subdivision (3) of this Section), the Company shall, subject to the provisions of said clause (b), comply with all applicable provisions of this Indenture (including but not limited to the furnishing of the Engineer’s Certificate provided for in subdivision (3) of Section 5.05 hereof and, in case the provisions of subdivision (4) of Section 5.05 hereof are applicable, the Independent Engineer’s Certificate provided for in said subdivision (4) of Section 5.05 hereof) as if such Property Additions were made the basis of an application for the authentication and delivery of bonds thereon (equivalent in principal amount to seventy per centum (70%) of the fair value of that portion of the property to be released which is to be released on the basis of such Property Additions, as shown by the Engineer’s Certificate in subdivision (2) of this Section provided for), and in case the release of property is in whole or in part based upon the right to the authentication and delivery of bonds (as permitted under the provisions of clause (c) of subdivision (3) of this Section) the Company shall comply with all applicable provisions of Section 6.01 hereof, as the case may be, relating to such authentication and delivery, except that in no such case shall the Company be required to comply with any earnings requirement or to deliver to the Trustee any Resolution, Officers’ Certificate, Net Earning Certificate or Opinion of Counsel provided for in subdivisions (1), (2), (6) and (8) of Section 5.05 hereof; provided, however, that the Cost of any Property Additions received or to be received by the Company in whole or in part as consideration in exchange for the property to be released shall for all purposes of this Indenture be deemed to be the amount stated in the Engineer’s Certificate provided for in subdivision (2) of this Section to be the fair value of the property to be released (a) plus the amount of any cash and the fair value of any other consideration, further to be stated in such Engineer’s Certificate, paid and/or delivered or to be paid and/or delivered by, and the amount of any obligations assumed or to be assumed by, the Company in connection with such exchange as additional consideration for such Property Additions or (b) less the amount of any cash and the fair value to the Company of any other consideration, which shall also be stated in such Engineer’s Certificate, received or to be received by the Company in connection with such exchange in addition to such Property Additions.
For all purposes of this Article XI, the fair value of property subject to a lien prior to the Lien hereof shall be the fair value thereof less the principal amount of any obligations secured by such lien thereon if it will thereafter cease to be a lien on any property subject to the Lien hereof.
Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of this Indenture,
(A)to the extent that any property to be released is not Funded Property and the Property Additions made the basis of such release shall (as evidenced by a statement to such effect
in an Engineer’s Certificate) have been acquired in exchange or consideration for, or acquired, made or constructed in anticipation of, the release of property (and shall never previously have been used as the basis of the release of property under the provisions of clause (b) of subdivision (3) of this Section or as the basis of the withdrawal of cash under subdivision (1) of Section 11.05) said Property Additions shall not have the status of Funded Property except to the extent of any amount which shall, at the time such Property Additions were made the basis of such release, have been deducted from the Cost or fair value of such Property Additions pursuant to the provisions of clause (A) of Section 1.04 hereof less any amount which shall then have been added thereto pursuant to the provisions of clause (B) of said Section 1.04, and
(B)to the extent that any property released shall not have been Funded Property just prior to its release,
(i) any Property Additions made the basis of such release of property shall not be deemed to be Funded Property except to the extent of any amount which shall, at the time such Property Additions were made the basis of such release, have been deducted from the Cost or fair value of such Property Additions pursuant to the provisions of clause (A) of Section 1.04 hereof less any amount which shall then have been added thereto pursuant to the provisions of clause (B) of said Section 1.04, and
(ii) any waiver of the right to the authentication and delivery of bonds made the basis of such release of property shall be revoked and cease to be effective and shall no longer be deemed to have been made, if the Company shall within two years after the release of such property file with the Trustee such Officers’ Certificates, Engineer’s Certificates, Independent Engineer’s Certificates, Opinions of Counsel and other papers (other than any Resolution, Net Earning Certificate or Opinion of Counsel such as is described in subdivisions (1), (6) and (8) of Section 5.05 hereof) as under the provisions of Article V hereof would entitle the Company, on the basis of Property Additions acquired, made or constructed subsequent to the application for the release of such property, to the authentication and delivery of bonds (equal in principal amount to seventy per centum (70%) of the fair value of such property so released), and the inclusion of such subsequently acquired Property Additions in any such Officers’ Certificate, Engineer’s Certificate, Independent Engineer’s Certificate, Opinion of Counsel or other papers shall not make such subsequently acquired Property Additions Funded Property.
Any bonds Outstanding under this Indenture deposited with the Trustee, pursuant to the provisions of this Section, shall forthwith be cancelled by the Trustee, and any moneys and/or obligations secured by purchase money mortgage and/or other property and/or the proceeds of any thereof and/or substitutes therefor received by the Trustee under this Section shall be held as part of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property and such moneys and/or obligations secured by purchase money mortgage shall be paid over, withdrawn, used or applied, in the manner, to the extent, and for the purposes and subject to the conditions provided in Section 11.05 hereof.
Any property acquired by the Company by exchange or purchase to take the place of any property released under any provisions of this Article shall forthwith and without further conveyance become subject to the Lien of and be covered by this Indenture as a part of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property, subject to no lien except Excepted Encumbrances and any liens existing thereon just prior to the acquisition thereof.
Section 11.04. Unless the Company is in default in the payment of the interest on any bonds then Outstanding hereunder or one or more Defaults shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee shall whenever from time to time requested by the Company (such request to be evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate) and without requiring compliance with any of the provisions of Section 11.03 hereof, release from the Lien hereof all the right, title and interest of the Trustee in and to any real estate unimproved for use in the conduct of the business of the Company, provided the Company has sold, exchanged, dedicated or disposed of such real estate, or has agreed to sell, exchange, dedicate or dispose of such real estate, or, as evidenced by a Resolution, has authorized its officers to endeavor to sell such real estate, and provided the aggregate value of the interest of the Company in such real estate so released without such compliance in any period of twelve (12) consecutive calendar months shall not exceed the greater of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) or three per centum (3%) of the bonds Outstanding hereunder on the date of such release. Prior to the granting of any such release, there shall be delivered to the Trustee an Engineer’s Certificate stating the fair value of the property to be released and that in the opinion of the signers the release thereof will not impair the security under this Indenture in contravention of the provisions hereof and setting forth any other facts required to be known by it as a condition precedent to any act by it under this Section. The Company covenants that it will deposit with the Trustee, to be dealt with in the manner provided in Section 11.05 hereof, the net consideration, if any, received by it upon the sale or other disposition of any such real estate so released (to the extent that the same shall not have been paid or delivered to the holder of another lien prior to the Lien of this Indenture in accordance with the provisions thereof and an Officers’ Certificate to that effect shall have been furnished to the Trustee), or if no consideration be received therefor or results therefrom to the Mortgaged and Pledged Property the Company will so deposit the fair value thereof.
Section 11.05. Unless the Company is in default in the payment of the interest on any bonds then Outstanding hereunder or one or more Defaults shall have occurred and be continuing, any Funded Cash received by the Trustee shall be held by the Trustee and, subject to the provisions of Section 9.12 hereof, such cash and any cash which may be applied as in this Section provided,
(1)may be withdrawn from time to time by the Company to the extent of the Cost or the fair value to the Company (whichever is less) of Property Additions not then Funded Property (after making any deductions and additions pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.04 hereof); provided, however, that no such withdrawal of cash representing the proceeds of insurance on or the release of property or securities or payment of or on account of obligations secured by purchase money mortgages may be based in whole or in part upon Property Additions acquired, made or constructed more than five (5) years prior to the last day of the calendar month immediately preceding the receipt by the Trustee of such cash; and provided further, that Property Additions acquired, made or constructed within ninety (90) days prior to the date of the receipt by the Trustee of such cash representing the proceeds of insurance on or the release of property (including securities and other personal property, if any), or payment of or on account of obligations secured by purchase money mortgages, or subsequent to such receipt of cash, may, at the option of the Company, not have deducted therefrom the deductions nor added thereto the additions pursuant to Section 1.04 hereof;
(2)may be withdrawn from time to time by the Company in an amount equal to the principal amount of each bond or fraction of a bond to the authentication and delivery of which the Company shall be entitled under the provisions of Section 6.01 hereof, by virtue of compliance with all applicable provisions of said Section 6.01 (except as
hereinafter in this Section otherwise provided); provided, however, that (except as hereinafter in this Section otherwise provided) the application for such withdrawal of cash shall operate as a waiver by the Company of such right to the authentication and delivery of each such bond or fraction thereof, on the basis of which right such cash is withdrawn, and any bonds which have been made the basis of any such right to the authentication and delivery of bond(s) or fraction of a bond so waived shall be deemed to have been made the basis of the withdrawal of such cash;
(3)may, upon the request of the Company, be used by the Trustee for the purchase of bonds issued hereunder in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.05; or
(4)may, upon the request of the Company, be applied by the Trustee to the payment at maturity of any bonds issued hereunder or to the redemption of any bonds issued hereunder which are, by their terms, redeemable, of such series as may be designated by the Company, such redemption to be in the manner and as provided in Article X hereof.
Such moneys shall, from time to time, be paid out or used or applied by the Trustee, as aforesaid, upon the request of the Company evidenced by a Resolution, and upon receipt by the Trustee of an Officers’ Certificate stating that the Company is not in default in the payment of the interest on any bonds then Outstanding hereunder and that no Default has occurred and is continuing. In case the withdrawal of cash is, in whole or in part, based upon Property Additions (as permitted under the provisions of clause (1) of this Section), the Company shall, subject to the provisions of said clause (1), comply with all applicable provisions of this Indenture (including but not limited to the furnishing of the Engineer’s Certificate provided for in subdivision (3) of Section 5.05 hereof and, in case the provisions of subdivision (4) of Section 5.05 hereof are applicable, the Independent Engineer’s Certificate provided for in said subdivision (4) of Section 5.05 hereof) as if such Property Additions were made the basis of an application for the authentication and delivery of bonds thereon equivalent in principal amount to seventy per centum (70%) of the cash to be withdrawn on such basis; or in case the withdrawal of cash is, in whole or in part, based upon the right to the authentication and delivery of bonds (as permitted under the provisions of clause (2) of this Section) the Company shall comply with all applicable provisions of Section 6.01 hereof, as the case may be, relating to such authentication and delivery; except that in no such case shall the Company be required to comply with any earnings requirement or to deliver to the Trustee any Resolution, Officers’ Certificate, Net Earning Certificate or Opinion of Counsel such as is described in subdivisions (1), (2), (6) and (8) of Section 5.05 hereof.
Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of this Indenture,
(a)to the extent that any cash to be withdrawn under the provisions of this Section represents the proceeds of property that was not Funded Property released, taken by eminent domain or damaged or destroyed by fire or represents payment on account of principal of, or consideration for the release of, obligations secured by purchase money mortgage which shall have been deposited with the Trustee as the basis of the release of property that was not Funded Property, and the application for the withdrawal of such cash is based upon Property Additions (which shall never previously have been used as the basis of the withdrawal of cash under subdivision (1) of this Section or as the basis of the release of property under the provisions of clause (b) of subdivision (3) of Section 11.03 hereof) acquired, made or constructed or to be acquired, made or constructed with such cash, or acquired, made or constructed in anticipation of the release of property or the withdrawal of cash (as evidenced by a statement to such effect in an
Engineer’s Certificate), then such Property Additions shall not have the status of Funded Property, except to the extent of any amount which shall, at the time such Property Additions were made the basis of such withdrawal of cash, have been deducted from the Cost or fair value of such Property Additions pursuant to the provisions of clause (A) of Section 1.04 hereof less any amount which shall then have been added thereto pursuant to the provisions of clause (B) of said Section 1.04, and
(b)to the extent that any cash withdrawn, used or applied under the provisions of this Section shall have represented the proceeds of property that was not Funded Property released, taken by eminent domain or damaged or destroyed by fire or shall have represented payment on account of principal of, or consideration for the release of, obligations secured by purchase money mortgage which shall have been deposited with the Trustee as the basis of the release of property that was not Funded Property,
i.such cash shall no longer be deemed to be, or to have been at the time of such withdrawal, use or application, Funded Cash;
ii.any Property Additions made the basis of such withdrawal of cash shall not be deemed to be Funded Property except to the extent of any amount which shall, at the time such Property Additions were made the basis of such withdrawal of cash, have been deducted from the Cost or fair value of such Property Additions pursuant to the provisions of clause (A) of Section 1.04 hereof less any amount which shall then have been added thereto pursuant to the provisions of clause (B) of said Section 1.04; and
iii.any waiver of the right to the authentication and delivery of bonds, made the basis of such withdrawal of cash, shall be revoked and cease to be effective and shall no longer be deemed to have been made, if the Company shall, within two years after the withdrawal, use or application of such cash, file with the Trustee such Officers’ Certificates, Engineer’s Certificates, Independent Engineer’s Certificates, Opinions of Counsel and other papers (other than any Resolution, Net Earning Certificate or Opinion of Counsel such as is described in subdivisions (1), (6) and (8) of Section 5.05 hereof) as, under the provisions of Article V hereof, would entitle the Company, on the basis of Property Additions acquired, made or constructed subsequent to the receipt by the Trustee of such cash, to the authentication and delivery of bonds equal in principal amount to seventy per centum (70%) of such cash so withdrawn, used or applied, and the inclusion of such subsequently acquired Property Additions in any such Officers’ Certificate, Engineer’s Certificate, Independent Engineer’s Certificate, Opinion of Counsel or other papers shall not make such subsequently acquired Property Additions Funded Property.
Any obligation secured by purchase money mortgage received or to be received by the Trustee under any of the provisions of this Indenture in consideration of the release of any property may be released at any time upon payment by the Company to the Trustee of all or the unpaid portion of the principal of such obligation; provided, however, at any time after the Trustee shall have received on account of the principal of any obligations secured by purchase money mortgage on a specified property (from the Company, the obligor or otherwise), an amount in cash equal to the aggregate principal amount of such obligations to the extent made the basis of a credit in the application for the release from the Lien hereof of such property, the Trustee shall deliver to the Company on the written request of the Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, President or a Vice President and the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary or the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer of the Company, the purchase money mortgage on such property and all obligations secured thereby then held by the Trustee including, but not limited to,
any such obligations delivered to the Trustee as required by subdivision (3) of Section 11.03 hereof but not used as a credit thereunder.
The principal of and interest on any such obligations secured by purchase money mortgage held by the Trustee shall be collected by the Trustee as and when the same become payable. Unless the Company is in default in the payment of the interest on any of the bonds then Outstanding hereunder or one or more Defaults shall have occurred and be continuing, the interest received by the Trustee on any such obligations shall be paid over to the Company, and any payments received by the Trustee on account of the principal of any such obligations in excess of the amount of credit used by the Company in respect of such obligations upon the release of any property from the Lien hereof shall also be paid over to the Company.
The Trustee shall have and may exercise all the rights and powers of an owner of such obligations and of all substitutions therefor and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, may collect and receive all insurance moneys payable to it under any of the provisions thereof and apply the same in accordance with the provisions thereof, may consent to extensions thereof at a higher or lower rate of interest, may join in any plan or plans of voluntary or involuntary reorganization or readjustment or rearrangement and may accept and hold hereunder new obligations, stocks or other securities issued in exchange therefor under any such plan. Any discretionary action which the Trustee may be entitled to take in connection with any such obligations or substitutions therefor shall be taken, so long as no Default shall exist, in accordance with the request of the Company, evidenced by a Resolution, and during the existence of a Default in its own discretion.
Any bonds issued under this Indenture received by the Trustee pursuant to the provisions of this Section shall forthwith be cancelled by the Trustee.
Section 11.06. Should any of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property be taken by exercise of the power of eminent domain or by the exercise by any governmental authority or instrumentality or designee thereof of the right to purchase or otherwise acquire any of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property and should the Company not elect to release such property pursuant to other provisions of this Article XII, the Trustee shall, upon request of the Company, evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate, and upon receipt of the net proceeds referred to below, release from the Lien hereof, all its right, title and interest in and to the property so taken, purchased or otherwise acquired upon being furnished with an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such property has been taken by exercise of the power of eminent domain or by the exercise by any governmental authority or instrumentality or designee thereof of the right to purchase or otherwise acquire the same. Such Opinion of Counsel shall state the amount of net proceeds received for such property so taken or acquired and the amount so stated shall be deemed to be the fair value of such property for the purpose of subdivision (b) of Section 16.13 hereof. An amount equal to the net proceeds of all property so taken or acquired (which proceeds shall, in either event, be required to be entirely in the form of cash) shall be paid over to the Trustee (except to the extent that such net proceeds shall have been paid or delivered to the holder of a lien prior hereto in accordance with the provisions thereof and a certificate of such trustee or other holder to that effect shall have been furnished to the Trustee), and (if paid over to the Trustee hereunder) may, subject to the provisions of Section 9.12 hereof, thereafter be withdrawn, used or applied in the manner, to the extent, for the purposes and subject to the conditions provided in Section 11.05 hereof.
Section 11.07. In case the Mortgaged and Pledged Property shall be in the possession of a receiver or trustee, lawfully appointed, the powers hereinbefore conferred upon the Company with respect to the sale or other disposition of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property or the withdrawal of cash may be exercised,
with the approval of the Trustee, by such receiver or trustee, notwithstanding the Company may be in default and any request, certificate, appointment or approval made or signed by such receiver or trustee for such purposes shall be as effective as if made by the Company or its Board of Directors or any of its officers or appointees in the manner herein provided; and if the Trustee shall be in possession of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property under any provision of this Indenture, then such powers may be exercised by the Trustee in its discretion notwithstanding that the Company may be in default.
Notwithstanding the existence of a default in the payment of interest on any bonds Outstanding hereunder or the existence of a Default, the Trustee, in its discretion, may release from the Lien hereof any part of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property or permit the withdrawal of cash, upon compliance with the other conditions specified in this Article in respect thereof.
No purchaser in good faith of property purporting to have been released hereunder shall be bound to ascertain the authority of the Trustee to execute the release, or to inquire as to any facts required by the provisions hereof for the exercise of this authority; nor shall any purchaser or grantee of any property or rights permitted by this Article to be sold, granted, exchanged, dedicated or otherwise disposed of, be under obligation to ascertain or inquire into the authority of the Company to make any such sale, grant, exchange, dedication or other disposition.
Section 11.08. In addition to the other provisions for the release of Mortgaged and Pledged Property provided in this Indenture, unless the Company is in default in the payment of the interest on any bonds then Outstanding hereunder or one or more Defaults shall have occurred and be continuing, the Company may in the alternative also obtain the release of any of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property (except cash or obligations secured by purchase money mortgage or all or substantially all of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property) by delivery to the Trustee of the Officers’ Certificate provided for in subdivision (1) of Section 11.03 hereof, the Engineer’s Certificate provided for in subdivision (2) of Section 11.03 hereof, the Opinion of Counsel provided for in subdivision (7) of Section 11.03 hereof and a copy of a release of such Mortgaged and Pledged Property from the lien of the 1944 Mortgage executed by the Corporate Trustee thereunder.
Section 11.09. In case the Company has sold, exchanged, dedicated or disposed of, or intends or has agreed to sell, exchange, dedicate or dispose of, or a governmental body or agency has exercised a right to order the Company to divest itself of, any property of a character excepted from the Lien hereof, or the Company desires to disclaim or quitclaim title to property to which the Company does not purport to have title, the Trustee shall, from time to time, execute such instruments of disclaimer or quitclaim as may be appropriate upon receipt by the Trustee of the following:
(1)an Officers’ Certificate complying with the requirements of Section 19.05 hereof and describing in reasonable detail the property to be disclaimed or quitclaimed; and
(2)an Opinion of Counsel complying with the requirements of Section 19.05 hereof and stating the signer’s opinion that such property is not subject to the Lien hereof or required to be subject thereto by any of the provisions hereof; and stating that the execution of such disclaimer or quitclaim is appropriate.
Section 11.10. Unless the Company is in default in the payment of the interest on any bonds then Outstanding hereunder or one or more Defaults shall have occurred and be continuing, the Company may obtain the release of any of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property which is not Funded Property, except cash then held by the Trustee (provided, however, obligations secured by purchase money mortgage
deposited with the Trustee shall not be released except as provided in Section 11.05 hereof), and the Trustee shall release all its right, title and interest in and to the same from the Lien hereof upon application of the Company and receipt by the Trustee of the following (in lieu of complying with the requirements of Section 11.03 hereof):
(1)An Officers’ Certificate stating that the Company has sold, leased, granted an interest in, exchanged, dedicated or disposed of, or intends to sell, lease, grant an interest in, exchange, dedicate, or dispose of, or that a governmental body or agency has lawfully ordered the Company to divest itself of, certain property, which shall be described in reasonable detail, that is not Funded Property and stating the consideration, if any, received or to be received therefor, and requesting the release thereof from the Lien of this Indenture; and stating that such property has not theretofore been Funded; that such release is in the opinion of the signers desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company; and that the Company is not, to the knowledge of the signers, in default in the performance of any of the terms or covenants of this Indenture; and that in the opinion of the signers all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to the release of the property in question have been complied with;
(2)(a) An Engineer’s Certificate, made and dated not more than (90) days prior to the date of such application, stating, in the opinion of the signers, the then fair value of the property to be released (which property shall be described in such certificate in reasonable detail) without deduction for any liens on such property; and stating that, in the opinion of the signers, such release will not impair the security under this Indenture in contravention of the provisions of this Indenture;
(b)In the case the fair value of such property to be released and all of other property released from the Lien of this Indenture since the commencement of the then current calendar year as shown by certificates filed pursuant to Article XI hereof, is ten per centum (10%) or more of the aggregate principal amount of bonds Outstanding at the time of the application then being made, an Independent Engineer’s Certificate stating in substance, the then fair value, in the opinion of the signers, of the property to be released, without deduction for any lien on such property; and that such release, in the opinion of the signers, will not impair the security under this Indenture in contravention of the terms of this Indenture; provided, however, that no Independent Engineer’s Certificate need be delivered to the Trustee in the case of any release of property if the fair value thereof, as shown by the certificate filed pursuant to paragraph (a) of this subdivision (2), is less than twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000) or less than one per centum (1%) of the aggregate principal amount of bonds at the time Outstanding hereunder;
(3)A further Engineer’s Certificate, made and dated not more than ninety (90) days prior to the date of such application, stating, in the opinion of the signers, that the aggregate principal amount of bonds to be Outstanding under this Indenture immediately after such release shall not exceed seventy per centum (70%) of the aggregate fair value of the then Funded Property of the Company; and
(4)An Opinion of Counsel to the effect that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to the release of the property in question have been complied with and, in case the Trustee is requested to release any franchise, that such release will not

Section 12.03. Upon the occurrence of a Default, the Trustee may, and upon the written request of the holders of twenty-five per centum (25%) in principal amount of the bonds then Outstanding (determined as provided in Section 12.07 hereof) shall, and the holders of twenty-five per centum (25%) in principal amount of the bonds at the time Outstanding hereunder may, (unless the holders of bonds of any series have annulled a declaration of such Default relating to such series of bonds pursuant to the provisions of the supplemental indenture creating such series of bonds), by notice in writing given to the Company (and to the Trustee if such notice be given by bondholders) unless prior to such declaration all covenants with respect to which Default shall have occurred, shall have been fully performed or made good, and all indebtedness secured hereby (including interest on overdue principal and, to the extent that payment of such interest is not prohibited under applicable law, on any overdue interest at the rate specified in Section 12.14 hereof), (other than expenses and charges of the Trustees), except the principal of any bonds not then due by their terms (other than by such declaration) and except interest accrued on such bonds since the last interest payment date, shall be paid, or the amount thereof shall be paid to the Trustee for the benefit of those entitled thereto, declare the principal of all of the bonds hereby secured and the interest accrued thereon immediately due and payable, and such principal and interest shall thereupon become and be immediately due and payable; subject, however, to the right of the holders of a majority in principal amount of all Outstanding bonds, by written notice to the Company and to the Trustees, thereafter to annul such declaration and destroy its effect at any time before any sale hereunder, if, before any such sale, all covenants with respect to which a Default shall have occurred shall be fully performed or made good, and the reasonable expenses and charges of the Trustees, their agents and attorneys, and all other indebtedness secured hereby (including interest on overdue principal and, to the extent that payment of such interest is
not prohibited under applicable law, on any overdue interest, at the rate specified in Section 12.14 hereof), except the principal of any bonds not then due by their terms (other than by such declaration) and except interest accrued on such bonds since the last interest payment date, shall be paid, or the amount thereof shall be paid to the Trustee for the benefit of those entitled thereto.
Section 12.04. Upon the occurrence of one or more Defaults, the Company, upon demand of the Trustees, or either of them, shall (if at the time such action shall be lawful) forthwith surrender to the Trustee or to both the Trustee and the Co-Trustee, or to the Co‑Trustee to the extent that the Trustee is not legally qualified to take possession as it or they may demand, the actual possession of, and (if at the time such action shall be lawful) the Trustee, or the Trustee and the Co-Trustee, or the Co-Trustee to the extent that the Trustee is not legally qualified to act in the premises, as shall be specified in such demand, by such officer or agent as it or they may appoint, may take possession of, all the Mortgaged and Pledged Property (with the books, papers and accounts of the Company) and hold, operate and manage the same, and from time to time make all needful repairs and such extensions, additions and improvements as to the Trustee or the Trustee and the Co-Trustee, or the Co‑Trustee to the extent the Trustee is not legally qualified to act in the premises, shall seem wise; and receive the tolls, rents, revenues, issues, earnings, income, products and profits thereof, and out of the same pay all proper costs and expenses of so taking, holding, managing and operating the same, including reasonable compensation to the Trustees, their agents and counsel, and any charges of the Trustees hereunder, and any taxes and assessments and other charges prior to the Lien of this Indenture which the Trustee or trustee in possession may deem it wise to pay, and all expenses of such repairs, extensions, additions and improvements, and apply the remainder of the moneys so received by the Trustee, or the Trustee and the Co-Trustee, or the Co-Trustee to the extent the Trustee is not legally qualified to act in the premises, subject to the provisions of Section 12.12 hereof with respect to extended, transferred or pledged coupons or claims for interest, first to the payment of the installments of interest which are due and unpaid (including, to the extent that payment thereof is not prohibited under applicable law, interest on overdue interest at the rate specified in Section 12.14 hereof), in the order of their maturity, and next, if the principal of any of said bonds is due, to the payment of the principal and accrued interest thereon (including interest on overdue principal and, to the extent that payment thereof is not prohibited under applicable law, interest on overdue interest, at the rate specified in Section 12.14 hereof) pro rata without any preference or priority whatever, except as aforesaid. Whenever all that is due upon such bonds and installments of interest and under any of the terms of this Indenture shall have been paid and all Defaults made good, the Trustees or trustee in possession shall surrender possession to the Company, its successors or assigns; the same right of entry, however, to exist upon any subsequent Default.
Section 12.05. Upon the occurrence of one or more Defaults, the Trustees, by such officer or agent as they may appoint, with or without entry, may, if at the time such action shall be lawful, sell all the Mortgaged and Pledged Property as an entirety, or in such parcels as the holders of a majority in principal amount of the bonds Outstanding hereunder (determined as provided in Section 12.07 hereof) shall in writing request, or in the absence of such request, as the Trustees may determine, at public auction at some convenient place in such county or judicial district in which the Company owns property subject hereto as the Trustees shall determine, or such other place or places as may be required by law, having first given notice of such sale by publication for three (3) consecutive weeks preceding the sale in at least one Daily Newspaper of general circulation in each county or parish in Mississippi, Arkansas and any other state in which the Company owns property (if there be such Daily Newspaper), the first publication to be made not less than twenty-one (21) days prior to the date of such sale, and by like publication one (1) time in at least one Daily Newspaper of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York, and by posting notice of such sale for the same period of time at the courthouse of each county in Mississippi, Arkansas and any other state in which the Company owns property, and any other notice
which may be required by law, and such notice or advertisement shall disclose the name of the Company as the original grantor of this Mortgage and Deed of Trust. From time to time the Trustees may (to the extent permitted by law) adjourn such sale in their discretion by announcement at the time and place fixed for such sale without further notice, and upon such sale may make and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers a good and sufficient instrument or instruments of conveyance, assignment or transfer for the same, which sale shall to the extent then permitted by law, be a perpetual bar, both at law and in equity, against the Company and all persons, firms and corporations lawfully claiming or who may claim by, through or under it.
The Company waives the provisions of Section 89-1-55 of the Mississippi Code of 1972, as amended, as far as such section restricts the right of the Trustees to offer at sale more than 160 acres at a time, and the Trustees may offer the property herein conveyed as a whole, regardless of how it is described.
Section 12.06. In case of the breach of any of the covenants or conditions of this Indenture, the Trustees shall have the right and power to take appropriate judicial proceedings for the enforcement of their rights and the rights of the bondholders hereunder. In case of a Default the Trustees may either after entry, or without entry, proceed by suit or suits at law or in equity to enforce payment of the bonds then Outstanding hereunder and to foreclose this Indenture and to sell the Mortgaged and Pledged Property under the judgment or decree of a court or courts of competent jurisdiction.
No remedy by the terms of this Indenture conferred upon or reserved to the Trustees, or either of them (or to the bondholders), is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to any other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute.
No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any Default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Default or acquiescence therein; and every such right and power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient.
No waiver of any Default, whether by the Trustee or by the bondholders, shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent Default or shall impair any rights or remedies consequent thereon.
Section 12.07. The holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the bonds at the time Outstanding hereunder may direct the time, method, and place of conducting, any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustees, or either of them, exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustees, or either of them, provided, however, that such direction shall not be otherwise than in accordance with the provisions of law and this Indenture and that, subject to the provisions of Sections 16.01 and 16.02 hereof, the Trustees shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee in good faith shall by Responsible Officers determine that the action or proceeding so directed would involve the Trustees, or either of them, in personal liability or be unjustifiably prejudicial to nonassenting bondholders or that it will not be sufficiently indemnified for any expenditures in any action or proceeding so directed.
For the purposes of this Section and of Sections 9.06, 12.01, 12.03, 12.05, 16.02, 16.14, 16.15, 18.02, 18.06, 18.10 and 19.06 hereof, and for the purpose of waiving, in accordance with any of the provisions of Section 18.07 hereof, any past Default of the Company and the consequences thereof, in determining whether the holders of the required percentage of the principal amount of bonds have concurred or participated in any direction or consent, (a) bonds for the purchase of which money in the
necessary amount shall have been deposited with or shall then be held by the Trustee with irrevocable direction to apply the same to the purchase thereof shall be deemed Outstanding and (b) bonds owned by the Company or by any affiliate of the Company (unless all bonds at the time Outstanding hereunder are then so owned) shall be disregarded, except that for the purpose of determining whether the Trustees, or either of them, shall be protected in relying on any such direction or consent, only bonds which the Trustees, or either of them, know are so owned, shall be so disregarded. Bonds so owned which have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as Outstanding for the purposes of this paragraph, if the pledgee shall establish to the satisfaction of the Trustees or the Trustee the pledgee’s right to vote such bonds and that the pledgee is not an affiliate of the Company. In case of a dispute as to such right, any decision by the Trustees, or either of them, taken upon the advice of counsel shall be full protection to the Trustees.
Section 12.08. In case of a Default and upon the filing of a xxxx in equity or other commencement of judicial proceedings to enforce the rights of the Trustees and of the bondholders under this Indenture, the Trustees shall be entitled, as a matter of right (to the extent that such right is enforceable under applicable law), to the appointment of a receiver or receivers of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property, and of the tolls, rents, revenues, issues, earnings, income, products and profits thereof, pending such proceedings, with such powers as the court making such appointment shall confer, whether or not the Mortgaged and Pledged Property shall be adequate to satisfy the bonds then Outstanding.
Section12.09. Upon any sale being made either under the power of sale hereby given or under judgment or decree in any judicial proceedings, for the foreclosure or otherwise for the enforcement of this Indenture, the principal of all bonds then secured hereby, if not previously due, shall become and be immediately due and payable.
Section 12.10. Upon any sale made either under the power of sale hereby given or under judgment or decree in any judicial proceedings for foreclosure or otherwise for the enforcement of this Indenture, any bondholder or bondholders may bid for and purchase the Mortgaged and Pledged Property or any part thereof and upon compliance with the terms of sale may hold, retain and possess and dispose of such property in his, their or its own absolute right without further accountability, and any purchasers at any such sale may, in paying the purchase money, turn in any of the bonds Outstanding hereunder and coupons or claims for interest outstanding hereunder in lieu of cash to the amount which shall, upon distribution of the net proceeds of such sale, be payable thereon, subject, however, to the provisions of Section 12.12 hereof with respect to extended, transferred, or pledged coupons or claims for interest. Said bonds and coupons, in case the amounts so payable thereon shall be less than the amount due thereon, shall be returned to the holders thereof after being appropriately stamped to show partial payment.
Section 12.11. Upon any sale made either under the power of sale hereby given or under judgment or decree in any judicial proceedings for the foreclosure or otherwise for the enforcement of this Indenture, the receipt of the Trustees, or either of them, or of the officer making such sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers at any sale for his or their purchase money and such purchaser or purchasers, his or their assigns or personal representatives shall not, after paying such purchase money and receiving such receipt of the Trustees, or either of them, or of such officer therefor, be obliged to see to the application of such purchase money, or be in anywise answerable for any loss, misapplication or non-application thereof.
Any sale made either under the power of sale hereby given or under judgment or decree in any judicial proceedings for the foreclosure or otherwise for the enforcement of this Indenture shall, if and to the extent then permitted by law, operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand
whatsoever, either at law or in equity, of the Company of, in and to the property so sold, and be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against the Company, its successors and assigns and against any and all persons, firms or corporations claiming or who may claim the property sold, or any part thereof, from, through or under the Company, its successors or assigns.
Section 12.12. The proceeds of any sale made either under the power of sale hereby given, or under judgment or decree in any judicial proceedings for the foreclosure or otherwise for the enforcement of this Indenture, together with any other amounts of cash which may then be held by the Trustees, or either of them, as part of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property, shall be applied, as follows:
First.--To the payment of all taxes, assessments, governmental charges and liens prior to the Lien of this Indenture, except those subject to which such sale shall have been made, and of all the costs and expenses of such sale, including reasonable compensation to the Trustees, their agents and (to the extent permitted by law) their attorneys, and of all other sums payable to the Trustees hereunder by reason of any expenses or liability incurred (in good faith and without negligence by the Trustees) or advances made in connection with the management or administration of the trusts hereby created;
Second.--To the payment in full of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal, premium and interest upon the bonds then secured hereby; and in case such proceeds shall be insufficient to pay in full the amounts so due and unpaid, then to the payment thereof ratably, without preference or priority as to principal, premium or interest, or of any amount of interest over any other amount of interest; provided, however, that if the time for the payment of any coupon or claim for interest upon any of the bonds secured hereby shall have been extended (except pursuant to action taken under Article XVIII hereof) by or with the consent of the Company, or if any thereof at or after maturity shall have been transferred or pledged separate from the bond to which they relate, such coupons or claims for interest shall not be entitled in case of Default hereunder to the benefit or security of this Indenture except after the prior payment in full of the principal and premium, if any, of all bonds issued hereunder and then secured hereby and of all coupons and claims for interest on such bonds the payment of which has not been so extended, or not so transferred or pledged; but the foregoing provisions of this paragraph Second shall not be applicable to any coupon or claim for interest the time for the payment of which shall have been extended, if such extension be pursuant to a plan proposed by the Company to all holders of any one or more series of bonds then Outstanding and accepted by and binding upon the holder of such coupon or claim for interest; and
Third.--Any surplus thereof remaining to the Company, its successors or assigns or to it, him or them whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same.
Section 12.13. In case of a Default, to the extent that such rights may then lawfully be waived, neither the Company nor anyone claiming through or under it shall or will set up, claim, or seek to take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or redemption laws now or hereafter in force in any locality where any of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property may be situated, in order to prevent or hinder the enforcement or foreclosure of this Indenture, or the absolute sale of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property, or the final and absolute putting into possession thereof, immediately after such sale, of the purchaser or purchasers thereat, but the Company, for itself and all who may claim through or under it, hereby waives, to the extent that it lawfully may so do, the benefit of all such laws and all right of appraisement and redemption to which it may be entitled under the laws of any State where any of the Mortgaged and Pledged
Property may be situated. The Company, for itself and all who may claim through or under it, waives, to the extent that it lawfully may do so, any and all right to have the estates comprised in the security intended to be created hereby marshalled upon any foreclosure of the Lien hereof, and agrees that any court having jurisdiction to foreclose such Lien may sell the Mortgaged and Pledged Property as an entirety.
Section 12.14. The Company covenants that if default shall be made in the payment of the principal of any bond hereby secured when the same shall become due and payable, whether by the maturity of said bond or otherwise, or in the case of a default in the payment of the interest on any bond for a period of ten (10) days after such interest shall have become due and payable, then upon demand of the Trustee, the Company will pay to the Trustees, for the benefit of the holders of the bonds and coupons then secured hereby, the whole amount due and payable on all such bonds and coupons for principal, premium, if any, and interest, with interest on any overdue principal and (to the extent that payment of such interest is not prohibited under applicable law) on any overdue interest at the rate borne by the bonds with respect to which any such amount or amounts are overdue plus one per centum (1%) per annum.
In the case of a default in payment of the principal of any bond when the same shall become due and payable, or in the case of a default in the payment of the interest on any bond for a period of ten (10) days after such interest shall have become due and payable, the Trustees, or either of them, may recover judgment, in their own names and as trustees of an express trust, against the Company for the whole amount of such principal, interest and any premium remaining unpaid together with interest on any overdue principal and (to the extent that payment of such interest is not prohibited under applicable law) on any overdue interest at the rate borne by the bonds with respect to which any such amount or amounts are overdue plus one per centum (1%) per annum.
The Trustees, or either of them, may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustees, or either of them, and of the bondholders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company or its creditors, or its property. In case of any receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceedings affecting the Company or its property, the Trustee, irrespective of whether the principal of the bonds shall then be due and payable and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand for such payment, shall be entitled and empowered either in its own name or as trustee of an express trust or as attorney in fact for the holders of the bonds and coupons, or in any one or more of such capacities, to file a proof of claim for the whole amount of principal and interest (with interest on any overdue principal and (to the extent that payment of such interest is not prohibited under applicable law) on any overdue interest at the rate borne by the bonds with respect to which any such amount or amounts are overdue plus one per centum (1%) per annum) which may be or become owing and unpaid in respect of the bonds and for any additional amount which may be or become payable by the Company hereunder, without regard to or deduction for any amount which may have been or which may thereafter be received, collected or realized by the Trustees from or out of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property or any part thereof or from or out of the proceeds thereof or any part thereof; but nothing in this Indenture contained shall authorize the Trustees to accept or consent to any composition or plan of reorganization on behalf of any bondholder.
The Trustees, to the extent permitted by law, shall be entitled to xxx and recover judgment and/or to file and prove such claim as aforesaid either before or after or during the pendency of any proceedings for the enforcement of the Lien of this Indenture upon the Mortgaged and Pledged Property, and in case of a sale of any of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property and of the application of the proceeds of sale to the payment of the debt hereby secured, the Trustees, in their own name and as trustees of an express trust, shall be entitled to enforce payment of and to receive all amounts then remaining due and
unpaid upon any and all the bonds and coupons then Outstanding hereunder, for the benefit of the holders thereof, and the Trustees shall be entitled to recover judgment for any portion of the debt remaining unpaid, with interest. No recovery on any such judgment by the Trustees and no levy of any execution upon any such judgment upon any of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property or upon any other property shall in any manner or to any extent affect the Lien of this Indenture upon the Mortgaged and Pledged Property or any part thereof, or any rights, powers or remedies of the Trustees hereunder, or any lien, rights, powers or remedies of the holders of the said bonds, but such lien, rights, powers and remedies of the Trustees and of the bondholders shall continue unimpaired as before.
Any moneys thus collected or received by the Trustees under this Section shall be applied by them first, to the payment of their expenses, disbursements and compensation and the expenses, disbursements and compensation of their agents and attorneys, and, second, toward payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon such bonds and coupons in respect of which such moneys shall have been collected, ratably and without preference or priority of any kind (subject to the provisions of Section 12.12 hereof with respect to extended, transferred or pledged coupons and claims for interest), according to the amounts due and payable upon such bonds and coupons, respectively, at the date fixed by the Trustees for the distribution of such moneys, with interest on any overdue principal and (to the extent that payment of such interest is not prohibited under applicable law) on any overdue interest at the rate borne by the bonds with respect to which any such amount or amounts are overdue plus one per centum (1%) per annum, upon presentation of the several bonds and coupons and upon stamping such payment thereon, if partly paid, and upon surrender thereof, if fully paid.
Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company pursuant to this Article XII, the Trustees shall be entitled to rely upon a court order or judgment or certificate of a receiver trustee in bankruptcy, or liquidating trustee, for the purpose of ascertaining persons entitled to participate in such payment, and the amount or amounts to be paid or distributed therein, including facts pertinent to whether interest on overdue interest shall be paid or payable in accordance with any provision of this Article XII and to whom it shall be payable.
Section 12.15. All rights of action (including the right to file proofs of claim) under this Indenture or under any of the bonds or coupons may be enforced by the Trustees, or either of them, without the possession of any of the bonds or coupons or the production thereof in any trial or other proceeding relating thereto, and any such suit or proceeding instituted by the Trustees, or either of them, shall be brought in their names as Trustees, or in its or his name as Trustee or Co-Trustee, and any recovery of judgment shall be for the equal benefit of the holders of the Outstanding bonds and coupons, subject to the provisions of Section 12.12 hereof with respect to extended, transferred or pledged coupons and claims for interest.
In any proceeding brought by the Trustees, or either of them (including also any proceeding involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Trustees, or either of them, shall be a party), the Trustee or Trustees shall be held to represent all the holders of the bonds and coupons secured by this Indenture and it shall not be necessary to make such holders of the bonds and coupons parties to any such proceedings.
Section 12.16. No holder of any bond or coupon shall have any right to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law for the foreclosure of this Indenture or for the execution of any trust hereof or for the appointment of a receiver or any other remedy hereunder unless such holder shall have previously given to the Trustees written notice of a Default, nor unless also the holders of twenty-five per centum (25%) in principal amount of the bonds then Outstanding hereunder shall have made written request to the Trustees and shall have offered them reasonable opportunity either to proceed to exercise
the powers hereinbefore granted or to institute such suit, action or proceeding in their own name and shall have offered to the Trustees security and indemnity satisfactory to the Trustees against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred thereby without negligence or bad faith, and the Trustees shall have declined to take such action or shall have failed so to do within sixty (60) days thereafter; it being understood and intended that no one or more holders of the bonds or coupons shall have any right in any manner whatsoever to affect, disturb or prejudice the Lien of this Indenture by his or their action to enforce any right hereunder except in the manner herein provided, and that all proceedings at law or in equity shall be instituted, had and maintained in the manner herein provided and for the equal benefit of all holders of Outstanding bonds and coupons. Such notification, request and offer of indemnity are hereby declared, at the option of the Trustees, but subject to the provisions of Sections 16.01 and 16.02 hereof, to be conditions precedent to the execution by them of the powers and trusts of this Indenture and to the exercise by them of any action or cause of action or remedy hereunder.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any holder of any bond to receive payment of the principal of and interest on such bond, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such bond, or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such holder.
Section 12.17. The Company may waive any period of grace provided for in this Article.
In case the Trustees shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture by foreclosure, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustees, then and in every such case the Company and the Trustees shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Mortgaged and Pledged Property, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Trustees shall continue as if no such proceedings had been taken.
ARTICLE XIII

Any request, declaration or other instrument, which this Indenture may require or permit to be signed and executed by the bondholders, may be in any number of concurrent instruments of similar tenor, and shall be signed or executed by such bondholders in person or by attorney appointed in writing. Proof of the execution of any such request or other instrument, or of a writing appointing any such attorney, or of the holding by any person of the bonds or coupons appertaining thereto, shall be sufficient (subject, insofar as the Trustees are concerned, to the provisions of Section 16.01 and Section 16.02 hereof) for any purpose of this Indenture (except as otherwise herein expressly provided) if made in the following manner:

The Company and the Trustees may deem and treat the bearer of any temporary or coupon bond Outstanding hereunder, which shall not at the time be registered as to principal as hereinbefore authorized, and the bearer of any coupon for interest on any such bond, whether such bond shall be registered or not, as the absolute owner of such bond or coupon, as the case may be, whether or not such bond or coupon shall be overdue, for the purpose of receiving payment thereof or on account thereof and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Trustees shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

Neither the Company nor the Trustees shall be bound to recognize any person as the holder of a bond Outstanding under this Indenture unless and until his bond is submitted for inspection, if required, except as may otherwise be provided by regulations made under Section 18.03 hereof, and his title thereto satisfactorily established, if disputed.

No such conveyance, transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property as an entirety shall have the effect of releasing the Company or any successor corporation that shall theretofore have become such in the manner prescribed in this Section from its liability as obligor and maker on any of the bonds secured hereby.
Section 15.02. In case the Company, as permitted by Section 15.01 hereof, shall be consolidated with or merged into any other corporation or shall convey or transfer, subject to the Lien of this Indenture, all or substantially all the Mortgaged and Pledged Property as an entirety, the successor corporation formed by such consolidation, or into which the Company shall have been merged, or which shall have received a conveyance or transfer as aforesaid, upon executing with the Trustees and causing to be recorded an indenture whereby such successor corporation shall expressly assume and agree to pay, duly and punctually, the principal of, interest and premium, if any, on the bonds issued hereunder in accordance with the provisions of said bonds and coupons and this Indenture, and shall agree to perform and fulfill all the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be kept or performed by the Company, shall succeed to
and be substituted for the Company with the same effect as if it had been named herein, and shall have and may exercise under this Indenture the same powers and rights as the Company, and (without in anywise limiting or impairing by the enumeration of the same the scope and intent of the foregoing general powers and rights) such successor corporation thereafter may cause to be executed, authenticated and delivered, either in its own name or in the name of Mississippi Power & Light Company, as its name is now or shall then exist, in respect of property of the character defined in Section 1.04 hereof as Property Additions, such bonds as could or might have been executed, issued and delivered by the Company had it acquired such property of such character by purchase on or after the date of such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer, and had such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer not occurred, and upon the order of such successor corporation in lieu of the Company, and subject to all the terms, conditions and restrictions in this Indenture prescribed concerning the authentication and delivery of bonds, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver any bonds delivered to it for authentication which shall have been previously signed by the proper officers of the Company, and such bonds as the successor corporation shall thereafter, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, cause to be executed and delivered to the Trustee for such purpose, and such successor corporation shall also have and may exercise in respect of the property of such character, and subject to all the terms, conditions and restrictions in this Indenture prescribed applicable thereto, whether as to withdrawal of cash, release of property, or otherwise, the same powers and rights which the Company might or could exercise had it acquired the property of such character by purchase on or after the date of such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer, and had such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer not occurred. All the bonds so issued or delivered by the Company shall in all respects have the same legal right and security as the bonds theretofore issued or delivered in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of said bonds had been authenticated and delivered at the date of the execution hereof. As a condition precedent to the execution by such successor corporation and the authentication and delivery by the Trustee of any such additional bonds or the withdrawal of cash or release of property, under any of the provisions of this Indenture, on the basis of property of the character defined in this Indenture as Property Additions acquired, made or constructed by the successor corporation or by any corporation with which the Company or any successor corporation may be so consolidated or into which the Company or any successor corporation may be so merged or to which the Company or any successor corporation may make any such conveyance, the indenture with the Trustees to be executed and caused to be recorded by the successor corporation as in this Section provided, or a subsequent indenture, shall contain a conveyance or transfer and mortgage in terms sufficient to subject such property to the Lien hereof; and provided, further, that the lien created thereby and the lien thereon shall have similar force, effect and standing as the Lien of this Indenture would have if the Company should not be consolidated with or merged into such other corporation or should not convey or transfer, subject to this Indenture, all or substantially all the Mortgaged and Pledged Property as an entirety, as aforesaid, to such successor corporation, and should itself on or after the date of such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer, acquire or construct such property, and in respect thereof should request the authentication and delivery of bonds or the withdrawal of cash or the release of property under the provisions of this Indenture.
Section 15.03. In case the Company, as permitted by Section 15.01 of this Indenture, shall be consolidated with or merged into any other corporation, or shall convey or transfer, subject to the Lien of this Indenture, all or substantially all the Mortgaged and Pledged Property as an entirety as aforesaid, neither this Indenture nor the indenture with the Trustees to be executed and caused to be recorded by the successor corporation as in Section 15.02 hereof provided, shall, unless such indenture shall otherwise provide, become or be or be required to become or be a lien upon any of the properties, rights or franchises then owned or thereafter acquired by the successor corporation (by purchase, consolidation, merger, donation, construction, erection or in any other way) except (a) those acquired by it from the Company, and improvements, extensions and additions thereto and renewals and replacements thereof,
(b) the property made and used by the successor corporation as the basis under any of the provisions of this Indenture for the authentication and delivery of additional bonds or the withdrawal of cash or the release of property, and (c) such franchises, repairs and additional property as may be acquired, made or constructed by the successor corporation (1) to maintain, renew and preserve the franchises covered by this Indenture, or (2) to maintain the property mortgaged and intended to be mortgaged hereunder as an operating system or systems in good repair, working order and condition, or (3) in rebuilding or renewal of property, subject to the Lien hereof, damaged or destroyed, or (4) in replacement of or substitution for machinery, apparatus, equipment, frames, towers, poles, wire, pipe, rails, ties, switches, tools, implements and furniture, subject to the Lien hereof, which shall have become old, inadequate, obsolete, worn out, unfit, unadapted, unserviceable, undesirable or unnecessary for use in the operation of the property mortgaged and intended to be mortgaged hereunder.

Section 16.11. [This Section shall not be operative as a part of this Indenture until this Indenture is qualified under the Trust Indenture Act, and, until such qualification, this Indenture shall be construed as if this Section were not contained herein.]
(a)Subject to the provisions of subdivision (b) of this Section, if the Trustee or
(b)Co-Trustee shall be or shall become a creditor, directly or indirectly, secured or unsecured, of the Company within four months prior to a default (as defined in the last paragraph of this subdivision), or subsequent to such a default, then, unless and until such default shall be cured, the Trustee or Co-Trustee shall set apart and hold in a special account for the benefit of the Trustee or Co-Trustee individually, the holders of the bonds, and the holders of other indenture securities (as defined in the last paragraph of this subdivision (a))
(1)an amount equal to any and all reductions in the amount due and owing upon any claim as such creditor in respect of principal or interest effected after the beginning of such four months’ period and valid as against the Company and its other creditors, except any such reduction resulting from the receipt or disposition of any property described in paragraph (2) of this subdivision (a) or from the exercise of any right of set-off which the Trustee or Co-Trustee could have exercised if a petition in bankruptcy had been filed by or against the Company upon the date of such default; and
(2)all property received in respect of any claim as such creditor, either as security therefor, or in satisfaction or composition thereof, or otherwise, after the beginning of such four (4) months’ period, or an amount equal to the proceeds of any such property, if disposed of, subject, however, to the rights, if any, of the Company and its other creditors in such property or such proceeds.
Nothing herein contained, however, shall affect the right of the Trustee or Co‑Trustee
(A)to retain for its or his own account (i) payments made on account of any such claim by any person (other than the Company) who is liable thereon, and (ii) the proceeds of the bona fide sale of any such claim by the Trustee or Co-Trustee to a third person, and (iii) distributions made in cash, securities, or other property in respect of claims filed against the Company in bankruptcy or receivership or in proceedings for reorganization pursuant to the Federal Bankruptcy Act or applicable State law;
(B)to realize for its or his own account, upon any property held by it as security for any such claim, if such property was so held prior to the beginning of such four (4) months’ period;
(C)to realize, for its or his own account, but only to the extent of the claim hereinafter mentioned, upon any property held by it as security for any such claim, if such claim was created after the beginning of such four (4) months’ period and such property was received as security therefor simultaneously with the creation thereof, and if the Trustee or Co-Trustee shall sustain the burden of proving that at the time such property was so received the Trustee or Co-Trustee had no reasonable cause to believe that a default as defined in the last paragraph of this subdivision (a) would occur within four months; or
(D)to receive payment on any claim referred to in paragraph (B) or (C), against the release of any property held as security for such claim as provided in paragraph (B) or (C), as the case may be, to the extent of the fair value of such property.
For the purposes of paragraphs (B), (C), and (D), property substituted after the beginning of such four (4) months’ period for property held as security at the time of such substitution shall, to the extent of the fair value of the property released, have the same status as the property released, and, to the extent that any claim referred to in any of such paragraphs is created in renewal of or in substitution for or for the purpose of repaying or refunding any pre-existing claim of the Trustee or Co-Trustee as such creditor, such claim shall have the same status as such pre-existing claim.
If the Trustee or Co-Trustee shall be required to account, the funds and property held in such special account and the proceeds thereof shall be apportioned between the Trustee. or Co-Trustee, the bondholders, and the holders of other indenture securities in such manner that the Trustee or Co-Trustee, the bondholders, and the holders of other indenture securities realize, as a result of payments from such special account and payments of dividends on claims filed against the Company in bankruptcy or receivership or in proceedings for reorganization pursuant to the Federal Bankruptcy Act or applicable State law, the same percentage of their respective claims, figured before crediting to the claim of the Trustee or Co-Trustee anything on account of the receipt by it from the Company of the funds and property in such special account and before crediting to the respective claims of the Trustee or Co-Trustee, the bondholders, and the holders of other indenture securities dividends on claims filed against the Company in bankruptcy or receivership or in proceedings for reorganization pursuant to the Federal Bankruptcy Act or applicable State law, but after crediting thereon receipts on account of the indebtedness represented by their respective claims from all sources other than from such dividends and from the funds and property so held in such special account. As used in this paragraph, with respect to any claim, the term “dividends” shall include any distribution with respect to such claim, in bankruptcy or receivership or in proceedings for reorganization pursuant to the Federal Bankruptcy Act or applicable State law, whether such distribution is made in cash, securities, or other property, but shall not include any such distribution with respect to the secured portion, if any, of such claim. The court in which such bankruptcy, receivership or proceeding for reorganization is pending shall have jurisdiction (i) to apportion between the Trustee or Co-Trustee, the bondholders, and the holders of other indenture securities, in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph, the funds and property held in such special account and the proceeds thereof, or (ii) in lieu of such apportionment, in whole or in part, to give to the provisions of this paragraph due consideration in determining the fairness of the distributions to be made to the Trustee or Co-Trustee, the bondholders, and the holders of other indenture securities, with respect to their respective claims, in which event it shall not be necessary to liquidate or to appraise the value of any securities or other property held in such special account or as security for any such claim, or to make a specific allocation of such distributions as between the secured and unsecured portions of such claims, or otherwise to apply the provisions of this paragraph as a mathematical formula.
Any Trustee or Co-Trustee who has resigned or been removed after the beginning of such four (4) months’ period shall be subject to the provisions of this subdivision (a) as though such resignation or removal had not occurred. If any Trustee or Co-Trustee has resigned or been removed prior to the beginning of such four (4) months’ period, it shall be subject to the provisions of this subdivision (a) if and only if the following conditions exist--
(i)the receipt of property or reduction of claim which would have given rise to the obligation to account, if such Trustee or Co-Trustee had continued as Trustee or Co-Trustee, occurred after the beginning of such four (4) months’ period; and
(ii)such receipt of property or reduction of claim occurred within four (4) months after such resignation or removal.

(2)Co-Trustee from acting as such under one of such indentures;
(3)the Trustee or Co-Trustee or any of its directors or executive officers is an obligor upon the bonds or an underwriter for the Company;
(4)the Trustee or Co-Trustee directly or indirectly controls or is directly or indirectly controlled by or is under direct or indirect common control with the Company or an underwriter for the Company;

The specifications of percentages in paragraphs (5) to (9), inclusive, of this subdivision (d) shall not be construed as indicating that the ownership of such percentages of the securities of a person is or is not necessary or sufficient to constitute direct or indirect control for the purposes of paragraph (3) or (7) of this subdivision (d).
For the purposes of paragraphs (6), (7), (8) and (9) of this subdivision (d) only, (A) the terms “security” and “securities” shall include only such securities as are generally known as corporate securities, but shall not include any note or other evidence of indebtedness issued to evidence an obligation to repay moneys lent to a person by one or more banks, trust companies or banking firms or any certificate of interest or participation in any such note or evidence of indebtedness; (B) an obligation shall be deemed to be in default when a default in payment of principal shall have continued for thirty (30) days or more and shall not have been cured; and (C) the Trustee or Co-Trustee shall not be deemed to be the owner or holder of (i) any security which it or he holds as collateral security (as trustee or otherwise) for an obligation which is not in default as above defined, or (ii) any security which it or he holds as collateral security under this Indenture, irrespective of any default hereunder, or (iii) any security which it or he holds as agent for collection, or as custodian, escrow agent or depositary, or in any similarly representative capacity.

(1)Securities of an issuer held in a sinking fund relating to securities of the issuer of the same class;
(2)Securities of an issuer held in a sinking fund relating to another class of securities of the issuer, if the obligation evidenced by such other class of securities is not in default as to principal or interest or otherwise;
(3)Securities pledged by the issuer thereof as security for any obligation of the issuer not in default as to principal or interest or otherwise;
(4)Securities held in escrow if placed in escrow by the issuer thereof;
provided, however, that any voting securities of an issuer shall be deemed outstanding if any person other than the issuer is entitled to exercise the voting rights thereof.
(ee) A security shall be deemed to be of the same class as another security if both securities confer upon the holder or holders thereof substantially the same rights and privileges, provided, however, that, in the case of secured evidences of indebtedness, all of which are issued under a single indenture, differences in the interest rates or maturity dates of various series thereof shall not be deemed sufficient to constitute such series different classes, and provided, further, that, in the case of unsecured evidences of indebtedness, differences in the interest rates or maturity dates thereof shall not be deemed sufficient to constitute them securities of different classes, whether or not they are issued under a single indenture.

(3)Co-Trustee shall not be required (but may elect) to state such advances, if such advances remaining unpaid at any time aggregate not more than ten per centum (10%) of the principal amount of bonds Outstanding at such time, such report to be transmitted within ninety (90) days after such time.
(c)Reports pursuant to this Section shall be transmitted by mail--
(1)to all registered holders of bonds, as the names and addresses of such holders appear upon the registration books of the Company;
(2)to such holders of bonds as have, within two years preceding such transmission, filed their names and addresses with the Trustee for that purpose; and
(3)except in the case of reports pursuant to subdivision (b) of this Section, to each bondholder whose name and address is preserved at the time by the Trustee, as provided in subdivision (b) of Section 9.09 hereof.
(d)A copy of each such report shall, at the time of such transmission to bondholders, be filed by the Trustee and Co-Trustee with each stock exchange upon which the bonds are listed and also with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company will notify the Trustee of the name and address of each stock exchange on which the bonds are listed.
(e)Notwithstanding any of the provisions of this Section which require the Co-Trustee to transmit reports to the bondholders and to file such reports with each stock exchange upon which the bonds are listed and also with the Securities and Exchange Commission, such Co-Trustee may,
if it or he so elects, furnish to the Trustee all information concerning such Co-Trustee which such Co-Trustee is required to report, and the Trustee shall transmit and file such information, in accordance with the provisions of this Section, on behalf of such Co-Trustee.
Section 16.14. The Trustee or Co-Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged of the trusts hereby created by giving written notice to the Company specifying the day upon which such resignation shall take effect and thereafter publishing notice thereof, in one Daily Newspaper of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York, once and such resignation shall take effect upon the day specified in such notice unless previously a successor trustee shall have been appointed by the bondholders or the Company in the manner hereinafter provided in Section 16.15 and in such event such resignation shall take effect immediately on the appointment of such successor trustee, provided, however, that if all bonds then Outstanding shall be registered, no notice need be given except by mail in accordance with subdivision (c) of Section 16.13 hereof. This Section shall not be applicable to resignations pursuant to Section 16.12 hereof.
Any Trustee or Co-Trustee may be removed at any time by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing filed with such Trustee or Co-Trustee and signed and acknowledged by the holders of a majority in principal amount of the bonds then Outstanding hereunder (determined as provided in Section 12.07 hereof) or by their attorneys in fact duly authorized.
In case at any time the Trustee or Co-Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.03 or Section 16.01 hereof, then the Trustee or Co‑Trustee so ceasing to be eligible shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect in this Section provided; and, in the event that it or he does not resign immediately in such case, then it or he may be removed forthwith by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing filed with the Trustee or Co-Trustee so ceasing to be eligible and either (a) signed by the Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, President or a Vice President of the Company with its corporate seal attested by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company or (b) signed and acknowledged by the holders of a majority in principal amount of the bonds then Outstanding hereunder (determined as provided in Section 12.07 hereof) or by their attorneys in fact duly authorized.
Section 16.15. In case at any time the Trustee or Co-Trustee shall resign or shall be removed (unless such Trustee or Co-Trustee shall be removed as provided in subdivision (c) of Section 16.12 hereof in which event the vacancy shall be filled as provided in said subdivision) or shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or if a receiver of the Trustee or Co-Trustee or of its or his property shall be appointed, or if any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or Co-Trustee, or of its or his property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, a vacancy shall be deemed to exist in the office of the Trustee or Co-Trustee, and a successor or successors may be appointed by the holders of a majority in principal amount of the bonds then Outstanding hereunder (determined as provided in Section 12.07 hereof) by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing signed and acknowledged by such bondholders or by their attorneys in fact duly authorized, and delivered to such new Trustee or Co-Trustee, notification thereof being given to the Company and the retiring Trustee or Co-Trustee; provided, nevertheless, that until a new Trustee or Co-Trustee shall be appointed by the bondholders as aforesaid, the Company, by instrument executed by order of its Board of Directors and duly acknowledged by its Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, President or a Vice President, may appoint a Trustee or Co-Trustee to fill such vacancy until a new Trustee or Co-Trustee shall be appointed by the bondholders as herein authorized. The Company shall publish notice of any such appointment made by it in the manner provided in Section 16.14
hereof. Any new Trustee or Co-Trustee appointed by the Company shall, immediately and without further act, be superseded by a Trustee or Co-Trustee appointed by the bondholders as above provided, if such appointment by the bondholders be made prior to the expiration of one year after the first publication of notice of the appointment of the new Trustee or Co-Trustee by the Company.
If in a proper case no appointment of a successor Trustee or Co-Trustee shall be made pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section within six months after a vacancy shall have occurred in the office of Trustee or Co-Trustee, the holder of any bond Outstanding hereunder or any retiring Trustee or Co-Trustee may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor Trustee or Co-Trustee. Said court may thereupon after such notice, if any, as such court may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor Trustee or successor Co-Trustee.
If any Trustee or Co-Trustee resigns because of a conflict of interest as provided in subdivision (a) of Section 16.12 hereof and a successor has not been appointed by the Company or the bondholders, or, if appointed, has not accepted the appointment, within thirty (30) days after the date of such resignation, the resigning Trustee or Co-Trustee may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee or successor Co-Trustee.
Any Trustee appointed under the provisions of this Section in succession to the Original Trustee shall be a bank or trust company eligible under Sections 9.03 and 16.01 hereof and qualified under Section 16.12 hereof.
Any Trustee or Co-Trustee which or who has resigned or been removed shall nevertheless retain the lien afforded to it or him by Section 16.09 hereof upon the trust estate, including all property or funds held or collected by such Trustee or Co-Trustee, as such, to secure the amounts due to such Trustee or Co-Trustee as compensation, reimbursement, expenses and indemnity, and shall retain the rights afforded to it or him by said Section 16.09 hereof.
Section 16.16. At any time or times, for the purpose of conforming to any legal requirements, restrictions or conditions in any State or jurisdiction in which any part of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property then or to become subject to the Lien of this Indenture may be located, the Company and the Trustees or the Trustee shall have the power to appoint, and, upon the request of the Trustees or the Trustee the Company shall for such purpose join with the Trustees or the Trustee in the execution, delivery and performance of all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to appoint, another corporation or one or more persons approved by the Trustees or the Trustee, either to act as separate trustee or trustees, or co-trustee or co-trustees jointly with the Trustee or Co Trustee, of all or any of the property subject to the Lien hereof. In the event that the Company shall not have joined in such appointment within fifteen (15) days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, the Trustees or Trustee alone shall have power to make such appointment.
Every separate trustee, every co-trustee and every successor trustee, other than any trustee which may be appointed as successor to the Original Trustee or the Original Co‑Trustee, shall, to the extent permitted by law, but to such extent only, be appointed subject to the following provisions and conditions, namely:
(1)The rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon trustees hereunder or any of them shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee or Trustees and such separate trustee or separate trustees or co-trustee or co-trustees jointly, as shall be provided in the instruments and agreements
appointing such separate trustee or separate trustees or co-trustee or co-trustees, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations shall be exercised and performed by the Co-Trustee or by such separate trustee or separate trustees or co-trustee or co-trustees;
(2)The bonds secured hereby shall be authenticated and delivered, and all powers, duties, obligations and rights, conferred upon the Trustees or Trustee in respect of the custody of all bonds and other securities and of all cash pledged or deposited hereunder, shall be exercised solely by the Original Trustee or its successors in the trust hereunder; and
(3)The Company and the Trustee and the Co-Trustee, at any time by an instrument in writing executed by them jointly, may accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee appointed under this Section or otherwise, and, upon the request of the Trustee, the Company shall, for such purpose, join with the Trustee and the Co-Trustee in the execution, delivery and performance of all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to make effective such resignation or removal. In the event that the Company shall not have joined in such action within fifteen (15) days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, the Trustee and the Co-Trustee alone shall have power to accept such resignation or to remove any such separate trustee or co-trustee. A successor to a separate trustee or co-trustee so resigned or removed may be appointed in the manner provided in this Section.
No trustee or co-trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee or co-trustee hereunder.
Any notice, request or other writing, by or on behalf of the holders of the bonds delivered to the Original Trustee, or its successor in the trust hereunder, shall be deemed to have been delivered to all of the then trustees or co-trustees as effectually as if delivered to each of them. Every instrument appointing any trustee or trustees other than a successor to the Original Trustee shall refer to this Indenture and the conditions in this Article expressed, and upon the acceptance in writing by such trustee or trustees or co-trustee or co-trustees, he, they or it shall be vested with the estates or property specified in such instrument, either jointly with the Original Trustee, or its successor, or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the trusts, conditions, and provisions of this Indenture; and every such instrument shall be filed with the Original Trustee or its successor in the trust hereunder. Any separate trustee or trustees, or any co-trustee or co-trustees, may at any time by an instrument in writing constitute the Original Trustee or its successor in the trust hereunder his, their or its agent or attorney in fact, with full power and authority, to the extent which may be permitted by law, to do any and all acts and things and exercise any and all discretion authorized or permitted by him, them or it, for and in behalf of him, them or it, and in his, their or its name. In case any separate trustee or trustees or co-trustee or co-trustees, or a successor to any of them, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the estates, property, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of said separate trustee or co-trustee, so far as permitted by law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Original Trustee or its successor in the trust hereunder, without the appointment of a new trustee as successor to such separate trustee or co-trustee.
Section 16.17. Any successor trustee appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to his or its predecessor trustee, and also to the Company, an instrument accepting such
appointment hereunder, and thereupon such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of his or its predecessor in trust hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as trustee herein; but the trustee ceasing to act shall nevertheless, on the written request of the Company, or of the successor trustee, or of the holders of ten per centum (10%) in principal amount of the bonds then Outstanding hereunder, execute, acknowledge and deliver such instruments of conveyance and further assurance and do such other things as may reasonably be required for more fully and certainly vesting and confirming in such successor trustee all the right, title and interest of the trustee to which he or it succeeds, in and to the Mortgaged and Pledged Property and such rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations, and the trustee ceasing to act shall also, upon like request pay over, assign and deliver to the successor trustee any money or other property subject to the Lien of this Indenture, including any pledged securities which may then be in his or its possession. Should any deed, conveyance or instrument in writing from the Company be required by the new trustee for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such new trustee such estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts and duties, any and all such deeds, conveyances and instruments in writing shall, on request be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Company.
Section 16.18. Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or with which it may be consolidated or any corporation resulting from any merger or consolidation in which the Trustee shall be a party or any corporation to which substantially all the business and assets of the Trustee may be transferred, provided such corporation shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 9.03 and 16.01 hereof and qualified under Section 16.12 hereof, shall be the successor trustee under this Indenture, without the execution or filing of any paper or the performance of any further act on the part of any other parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding. In case any of the bonds contemplated to be issued hereunder shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may, subject to the same terms and conditions as though such successor had itself authenticated such bonds, adopt the certificate of authentication of the Original Trustee or of any successor to it, as trustee hereunder, and deliver the said bonds so authenticated; and in case any of said bonds shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such bonds either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor trustee, and in all such cases such certificate shall have the full force which it is anywhere in said bonds or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have; provided, however, that the right to authenticate bonds in the name of the Original Trustee shall apply only to its successor or successors by merger or consolidation or sale as aforesaid.
Section 16.19. Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, the Company, by instrument executed by order of its Board of Directors and duly acknowledged by its proper officers, may, within the period beginning January 1, 1993, and ending December 31, 1993, and the comparable period in each succeeding decade, appoint any corporation eligible under the provisions of Section 16.15 hereof, and doing business in the United States of America, as Trustee in succession to the Trustee in office as of the date of such appointment and the corporation so appointed Trustee shall thereupon become successor Trustee hereunder until a new Trustee shall be appointed by the bondholders as authorized herein.
Section 16.20. All the estates, rights, titles and interest by this Indenture conveyed or assigned or transferred to the Trustee and the Co-Trustee are conveyed, assigned and transferred to them as joint tenants and not as tenants in common.
Except as herein expressly provided to the contrary, any notice, request, or other writing by or on behalf of the Company delivered solely to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been delivered to both the Trustee and the Co-Trustee hereunder as effectually as if delivered to each of them.
Section 16.21. The Co-Trustee has been joined as trustee in order to comply with any legal requirements respecting trustees under mortgages or deeds of trust of property in the states, or some of them, in which the mortgaged premises or part thereof are or may be situate, and shall as such trustee possess such powers, and such powers only, as may be necessary to comply with such requirements. If by reason of the repeal of such requirements, or for any other reason, it shall not be necessary, in the opinion of counsel, that there shall be a Co-Trustee and the Company shall file with the Trustee, and also with the Co-Trustee, an Opinion of Counsel to that effect and a written request for the resignation or removal of the Co-Trustee, the Original Co-Trustee, or any successor, will thereupon resign or shall forthwith cease to be a Trustee hereunder, and all powers of the Co-Trustee shall forthwith terminate, as shall his right, title or interest in and to the trust estate; and, unless and until there shall be appointed a new Trustee or successor to the Co-Trustee, all the right, title and powers of the Trustees shall devolve upon the Trustee and its successors alone.
ARTICLE XVII
DISCHARGE OF MORTGAGE
Section 17.01. The Trustees (and any trustee or trustees or co-trustee or co-trustees appointed pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture) may, and upon request of the Company shall, cancel and discharge the Lien hereof and execute and deliver to the Company such deeds and instruments as shall be requisite to satisfy the Lien hereof and reconvey and transfer to the Company the Mortgaged and Pledged Property, whenever all indebtedness secured hereby shall have been paid, including all proper charges of the Trustees hereunder.
Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the Trustees shall have an unsecured right to charge and be reimbursed for any expenditures and liabilities (incurred in good faith and without negligence by the Trustees) which they or either of them may thereafter incur.
Bonds and interest obligations for the payment of which and bonds for the redemption of which either
(i) | moneys in the necessary amount or |
(ii) | obligations of the United States of America which shall not contain provisions permitting the redemption thereof at the option of the issuer, the principal of and the interest on which when due, and without any regard to reinvestment thereof, will, in the opinion of an Independent accountant, provide moneys which, together with the moneys, if any, deposited with or held by the Trustee, shall be sufficient to pay when due and to become due on said bonds or portions thereof on the redemption date or maturity date thereof, as the case may be, |
shall have been set apart by or deposited with the Trustee, with irrevocable direction so to apply the same, subject to the provisions of Section 19.03 hereof (with or without any additional right given to the holders to surrender their bonds or obtain therefrom payment therefor prior to the redemption date) shall for all
purposes under this Indenture, including satisfying the Lien of this Indenture, be deemed to have been paid; provided that in case of redemption the notice requisite to the validity of such redemption shall have been given or arrangements shall have been made assuring to the satisfaction of the Trustee that the same will be given, and provided further that the Trustee shall receive an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such setting apart by, or deposit with, the Trustee does not require registration on behalf of any such obligations of the United States of America by the Company or by the Trustee under the Investment Company Act of 1940, does not violate any applicable laws, and does not result in a taxable event with respect to the holders of the bonds prior to the time of their right to receive payment.
ARTICLE XVIII
MEETINGS AND CONSENTS OF BONDHOLDERS
Section 18.01 Modifications and alterations of this Indenture and/or of any indenture supplemental hereto and/or of the rights and obligations of the Company and/or of the rights of the holders of bonds and coupons issued hereunder may be made as provided in this Article XVIII.
Section 18.02 The Trustee may at any time call a meeting of the bondholders and it shall call such a meeting on written request of the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the bonds Outstanding hereunder at the time of such request. The Company, pursuant to a Resolution of its Board of Directors, may also call a meeting of the bondholders at any time. In each such case the purpose or purposes of such meeting shall be set forth in reasonable detail in the notice of the meeting provided for herein. In the event of the Trustee’s failing for ten (10) days to call a meeting after being thereunto requested by the bondholders as above set forth, holders of Outstanding bonds in the amount above specified in this Section or the Company, pursuant to Resolution of its Board of Directors, may call such meeting. Every such meeting called by and at the instance of the Trustee shall be held in Jackson, Mississippi, or the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York, or with the written approval of the Company, at any other place in the United States of America, and notice thereof, stating the place and time thereof and in reasonable detail the business to be submitted, shall be mailed by the Trustee not less than thirty (30) days before such meeting (a) to all holders of bonds the names and addresses of whom are then preserved as required by Section 9.09 hereof, and (b) to the Company addressed to it at the address given in the first paragraph of this Indenture (or at such other address as may be designated by the Company from time to time), and, unless all bonds Outstanding hereunder are at the time registered as to principal, shall be published by the Trustee once preceding the meeting, in a Daily Newspaper of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York, the publication to be not less than twenty (20) days prior to the date of such meeting; provided, however, that the mailing of such notice to any bondholders shall in no case be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken at such meeting, and provided further, however, that if all bonds then Outstanding shall be registered, no notice need be given except by mail in accordance with subdivision (c) of Section 16.13 hereof. If such meeting is called by or at the instance either of the Company or of the bondholders, it shall be held at such place in the United States of America as may be specified in the notice calling such meeting and notice thereof shall be sufficient for all purposes hereof if given by newspaper publication as aforesaid stating the place and time of the meeting and in reasonable detail the business to be submitted. Any meeting of bondholders shall be valid without notice if the holders of all bonds then Outstanding hereunder are present in person or by proxy and if the Company and the Trustee are present by duly authorized representatives, or if notice is waived in writing before or after the meeting by the Company, the holders
of all bonds Outstanding hereunder and by the Trustee, or by such of them as are not present in person or by proxy.
Section 18.03. Officers and nominees of the Trustee, of the Co-Trustee and of the Company or their or its nominees may attend such meeting, but shall not as such be entitled to vote thereat. Attendance by bondholders may be in person or by proxy and, unless specifically prohibited by law, any such proxy shall remain in effect unless specifically revoked and shall be binding on any subsequent holder of the bonds represented by such proxy, unless specifically revoked by any such subsequent holder before being voted. In order that the holder of any bond payable to bearer and his proxy may attend and vote without producing his bond, the Trustee, with respect to any such meeting, may make and from time to time vary such regulations as it shall think fit for deposit of bonds with, or the stamping of bonds by, (i) any banks, bankers or trust or insurance companies having a capital of not less than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) or (ii) any trustee of any pension, welfare, hospitalization or similar fund or funds having an aggregate corpus in excess of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), or (iii) the United States of America, any Territory thereof, the District of Columbia, any State of the United States, any municipality in any State of the United States or any public instrumentality of the United States, any State or Territory, or (iv) by any other person or corporation satisfactory to the Trustee, and for the issue to the persons depositing the same of certificates by such depositaries entitling the holders thereof to be present and vote at any such meeting and to appoint proxies to represent them and vote for them at any such meeting as if the persons so present and voting, either personally or by proxy, were the actual bearers of the bonds in respect of which such certificates shall have been issued and any regulations so made shall be binding and effective. A bondholder in any of the foregoing categories may sign such certificate in his own behalf. In lieu of or in addition to providing for such deposit, the Trustee may, in its discretion, permit such institutions to issue certificates stating that bonds were exhibited to them, which certificates shall entitle the holders thereof to vote at any meeting only if the bonds with respect to which they are issued are not produced at the meeting by any other person and are not at the time of the meeting registered in the name of any other person. Each such certificate shall state the date on which the bond or bonds in respect of which such certificate shall have been issued were deposited with or submitted to such institution and the series, maturities and serial numbers of such bonds. In the event that two or more such certificates shall be issued with respect to any bond or bonds, the certificate bearing the latest date shall be recognized and be deemed to supersede any certificate or certificates previously issued with respect to such bond or bonds. If any such meeting shall have been called under the provisions of Section 18.02 hereof, by bondholders or by the Company, and the Trustee shall fail to make regulations as above authorized, then regulations to like effect for such deposit, stamping or exhibition of bonds and the issue of certificates by (i) any bank, banker or trust or insurance company organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof, having a capital of not less than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000), or (ii) any trustee or any pension, welfare, hospitalization, or similar fund or funds having an aggregate corpus in excess of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), or (iii) by the United States of America, any Territory thereof, the District of Columbia, any State of the United States, any municipality in any State of the United States or any public instrumentality of the United States, any State or Territory shall be similarly binding and effective for all purposes hereof if adopted or approved by the bondholders calling such meeting or by the Board of Directors of the Company, if such meeting shall have been called by the Company, provided that in either such case copies of such regulations shall be filed with the Trustee. A bondholder in any of the foregoing categories may sign such a certificate in his own behalf.
Section 18.04. Subject to the restrictions specified in Sections 18.03 and 18.07 hereof, any registered holder of bonds Outstanding hereunder and any holder of a certificate (not superseded) provided for in Section 18.03 hereof, shall be entitled in person or by proxy to attend and vote at such meeting as holder of the bonds registered or certified in the name of such holder without producing such bonds. All others
seeking to attend or vote at such meeting in person or by proxy must, if required by an authorized representative of the Trustee or the Company or by any other bondholder, produce the bonds claimed to be owned or represented at such meeting, and everyone seeking to attend or vote shall, if required as aforesaid, produce such further proof of bond ownership or personal identity as shall be satisfactory to the authorized representative of the Trustee, or if none be present then to the Inspectors of Votes hereinafter provided for. Proxies shall be witnessed or in the alternative may (a) have the signature guaranteed by a bank or trust company or a registered dealer in securities, (b) be acknowledged before a Notary Public or other officer authorized to take acknowledgments, or (c) have their genuineness otherwise established to the satisfaction of the Inspectors of Votes. All proxies and certificates presented at any meeting shall be delivered to said Inspectors of Votes and filed with the Trustee.
Section 18.05. Persons named by the Trustee, if it is represented at the meeting, shall act as temporary Chairman and Secretary of the meeting, but if the Trustee shall not be represented or shall fail to nominate such persons or if any person so nominated shall not be present, the bondholders represented shall by a majority vote, irrespective of the amount of their holdings, elect another person or other persons from those present to act as temporary Chairman and/or Secretary. A permanent Chairman and a permanent Secretary of such meeting shall be elected from those present by the bondholders represented by a majority vote of bonds represented. The Trustee, if represented at the meeting, shall appoint two Inspectors of Votes who shall decide as to the right of anyone to vote and shall count all votes cast at such meeting, except votes on the election of a Chairman and Secretary, both temporary and permanent, as aforesaid and who shall make and file with the permanent Secretary of the meeting their verified written report in duplicate of all such votes so cast at said meeting. If the Trustee shall not be represented at the meeting or shall fail to nominate such Inspectors of Votes or if either Inspector of Votes fails to attend the meeting, the vacancy shall be filled by appointment by the permanent Chairman of the meeting.
Section 18.06. The holders of:
(a)not less than a majority in principal amount of the bonds Outstanding hereunder when such meeting is held; or
(b)if the action proposed at said meeting adversely affects solely the rights of the holders of one or more, but less than all, series of bonds then Outstanding, then at least a majority in principal amount of those bonds then Outstanding so to be adversely affected; or
(c)if the action proposed at said meeting relates to the express provisions of Section 1.07 or 4.01 hereof, then at least a majority in principal amount of all series of bonds authenticated and delivered under Article IV hereof then Outstanding hereunder, considered as a single class, and of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the bonds then Outstanding hereunder
(excluding in any case bonds disqualified from voting by reason of the Company’s interest therein) must be present at such meeting in person or by proxy in order to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, less than a quorum, however, having power to adjourn; provided, however, that if such meeting is adjourned by less than a quorum for more than thirty (30) days, notice thereof shall be mailed as soon as practicable by the Trustee if such meeting shall have been called by the Trustee (a) to the Company addressed to it at the address given in the first paragraph of this Indenture (or at such other address as may be designated by the Company in writing from time to time), and (b) to all holders of bonds then Outstanding hereunder, the names and addresses of whom are then preserved by the Trustee as required by the provisions of Section 9.09 hereof, and, unless all bonds Outstanding hereunder are at the time of such mailing registered as to principal, shall be published at least once in each thirty (30) day period of such
adjournment in a Daily Newspaper of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York, provided, however, that if all bonds then Outstanding shall be registered, no notice need be given except by mail in accordance with subdivision (c) of Section 16.13 hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a meeting is first adjourned by less than a quorum for less than thirty (30) days and is again adjourned, no such notice need be mailed or published during the period of the first adjournment but such notice shall be mailed as soon as practicable by the Trustee after the second adjournment and, unless all bonds Outstanding hereunder are at the time of such mailing registered as to principal, shall be published as aforesaid at least once in each thirty (30) day period of the second adjournment and of any subsequent adjournments. The failure to mail such notice to any such bondholder as aforesaid shall in no case affect the validity of any action taken at any meeting held pursuant to such adjournment.

Any record so signed and verified shall be proof of the matters therein stated, and if such record shall also be signed and verified by the affidavit of a duly authorized representative of the Trustee, such meeting shall be deemed conclusively to have been duly convened and held and such record shall be conclusive, and any resolution or proceeding stated in such record to have been adopted or taken, shall be deemed conclusively to have been duly adopted or taken by such meeting. A true copy of any resolution adopted by such meeting shall be mailed by the Trustee to all holders of bonds Outstanding hereunder, the names and addresses of whom are then preserved by the Trustee pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.09 hereof, and proof of such mailing by the affidavit of some person having knowledge of the fact shall be filed with the Trustee, but failure to mail copies of such resolution as aforesaid shall not affect the validity thereof.

appertaining thereto. The Company or the Trustee may require bonds Outstanding to be presented for notation or exchange as aforesaid if either shall see fit to do so. Instruments supplemental to this Indenture embodying any modification or alteration of this Indenture (including any indenture supplemental hereto) made at any bondholders’ meeting and approved, by Resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company, as aforesaid, may be executed by the Trustees and the Company and upon demand of the Trustee, or if so specified in any resolution adopted by any such bondholders’ meeting, shall be executed by the Company and the Trustees.

(B)Instruments of consent shall be witnessed or in the alternative may (a) have the signature guaranteed by a bank or trust company or a registered dealer in securities, (b) be acknowledged before a notary public or other officer authorized to take acknowledgments, or (c) have their genuineness otherwise established to the satisfaction of the Trustee.
The amount of bonds payable to bearer, and the series and serial numbers thereof, held by a person executing an instrument of consent (or whose attorney has executed an instrument of consent in his behalf), and the date of his holding the same, may be proved either by exhibiting the bonds themselves to the Trustee or by a certificate executed (i) by any bank, banker or trust or insurance company organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof, having a capital of not less than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000), (ii) by any trustee of any pension, welfare, hospitalization or similar fund having an aggregate corpus in excess of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), (iii) by the United States of America, any Territory thereof, the District of Columbia, any State of the United States, any municipality in any State of the United States or any public instrumentality of the United States, any State or Territory, or (iv) by any other person or corporation satisfactory to the Trustee. A bondholder in any of the foregoing categories may sign a certificate in his or its own behalf.
Each such certificate shall be dated and shall state in effect that, as of the date thereof, a coupon bond or bonds bearing a specified serial number or numbers was deposited with or exhibited to the signer of such certificate. The holding by the person named in any such certificate of any bond specified therein shall be presumed to continue unless (1) any certificate bearing a later date issued in respect of the same bond shall be produced, (2) the bond specified in such certificate (or any bond or bonds issued in exchange or substitution for such bond) shall be produced by another holder, or (3) the bond specified in such certificate shall be registered as to principal in the name of another holder or shall have been surrendered in exchange for a fully registered bond registered in the name of another holder. The Trustee may, in its discretion, require further proof in cases where it deems further proof desirable. The ownership of registered bonds shall be proved by the registry books.
(C)Until such time as the Trustee shall receive the written consent of the necessary per centum in principal amount of the bonds required by the provisions of subsection (A) above for action contemplated by such consent, any holder of a bond, the serial number of which is shown by the evidence to be included in the bonds the holders of which have consented to such action, may, by filing written notice with the Trustee at its principal office and upon proof of holding as provided in subsection (B) above, revoke such consent so far as it concerns such bond. Except as aforesaid, any such consent shall be conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders of such bond (and any bond issued in lieu thereof or exchanged therefor), irrespective of whether or not any notation of such consent is made upon such bond, and in any event any action taken by the holders of the percentage in aggregate principal amount of the bonds specified in subsection (A) above in connection with such action shall, subject to the provisions of the last sentence of Section 18.08 hereof, be conclusively binding upon the Company, the Trustees and holders of all the bonds.

Section 19.01. Nothing in this Indenture, expressed or implied, is intended, or shall be construed, to confer upon, or to give to, any person, firm or corporation, other than the parties hereto and the holders of the bonds and coupons Outstanding hereunder, any right, remedy, or claim under or by reason of this Indenture or any covenant, condition, stipulation, promise or agreement hereof, and all the covenants, conditions, stipulations, promises and agreements in this Indenture contained by and on behalf of the Company shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto, and of the holders of the bonds and of the coupons Outstanding hereunder.

Such bonds or other obligations (other than those held for the purpose of effecting the purchase, payment or redemption of any bonds issued hereunder or the payment of any coupons or interest claims appertaining to bonds issued hereunder) shall be held by the Trustee as a part of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property and subject to the same provisions hereof as the cash used to purchase the same, but upon a like request of the Company, the Trustee shall sell all or any designated part of the same and the proceeds of such sale shall be held by the Trustee subject to the same provisions hereof as the cash used by it to purchase the bonds or other obligations so sold. If such sale shall produce a net sum less than the cost of the bonds or other obligations so sold, the Company covenants that it will pay promptly to the Trustee such amount of cash as with the net proceeds from such sale will equal the costs of the bonds or other obligations so sold, and if such sale shall produce a net sum greater than the costs of the bonds or other obligations so sold, the Trustee shall promptly pay to the Company an amount in cash equal to such excess.
Unless the Company is in Default, any money in excess of the sum of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) which shall have been held by the Trustee for a period of five (5) years, invested or uninvested (other than money which is held by it for the purpose of effecting the purchase, payment or redemption of any bonds issued hereunder or the payment of any coupons or interest claims appertaining to bonds issued hereunder or which it has been directed to apply to any such purchase, payment or redemption), shall be applied by the Trustee to the redemption of bonds to the extent any bonds then Outstanding are, by their terms, redeemable, selected as provided in Section 10.02 hereof from the bonds of all series then redeemable. Any moneys not so applied to redemption of bonds shall be held, applied or withdrawn in accordance with the other provisions of this Indenture.
