On February 17, 2011, the Company and the Trustee entered the First Supplemental Indenture to the Base Indenture (the “Series UIC-01A First Supplemental Indenture”), and the Company, the Trustee and U-Haul Leasing & Sales Co. entered a Pledge and Security Agreement (the “Series UIC-01A Security Agreement”).  In connection with the foregoing, the Company issued $254,800 in aggregate principal amount of 4.5% Secured Notes Series UIC-01A due 2014 (the “Series UIC-01A Notes”) in a public offering.  Investors in the Series UIC-01A Notes must first join the U-Haul Investors Club.   The Company received approximately $13,700 in net cash proceeds from the offering, and intends to use the proceeds to reimburse its subsidiaries and affiliates for the cost of production of specified U-Haul™  appliance dollies (the “Collateral”) and for other general corporate purposes.

The Series UIC-01A Notes bear interest at the rate of 4.5% per year and are fully amortizing over the term.  Principal and interest on the Notes will be credited to each holder’s U-Haul Investors Club account on a quarterly basis in arrears throughout the term, commencing on May 16, 2011.

The Series UIC-01A Notes were offered and sold pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-169832) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  The Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a prospectus supplement, dated February 3, 2011, together with the accompanying prospectus, dated October 7, 2010, relating to the offering and sale of the Series UIC-01A Notes.

In case by reason of the suspension of publication of any Authorized Newspaper or Authorized Newspapers or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to publish any notice to Holders of Bearer Securities as provided above, then such notification to Holders of Bearer Securities as shall be given with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute sufficient notice to such Holders for every purpose hereunder. Neither failure to give notice by publication to Holders of Bearer Securities as provided above, nor any defect in any notice so published, shall affect the sufficiency of any notice mailed to Holders of Registered Securities as provided above.
 
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, where this Indenture provides for notice of any event to a Holder of a global Security, such notice shall be sufficiently given if given to the Depository (or its designee) pursuant to standing instructions from the Depository (or its designee).

Section 303       Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.
 
Definitive Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by any authorized officer of the Company and may (but need not) have its corporate seal or a facsimile thereof reproduced thereon. Coupons shall be executed on behalf of the Company by any authorized officer of the Company. The signature of any one of these officers on the Definitive Securities or any Coupons appertaining thereto may be electronic, manual or facsimile.
 
Definitive Securities and any Coupons appertaining thereto bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Definitive Securities or did not hold such offices at the date of such Definitive Securities or Coupons.
 
At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Definitive Securities, together with any Coupons appertaining thereto, executed by the Company, to the Trustee for authentication and, provided that the Board Resolution and Officers’ Certificate or supplemental indenture or indentures with respect to such Definitive Securities referred to in Section 301 and a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Definitive Securities have been delivered to the Trustee, the Trustee in accordance with the Company Order and subject to the provisions hereof and of such Definitive Securities shall authenticate and deliver such Definitive Securities.  In authenticating such Definitive Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Definitive Securities and any Coupons appertaining thereto, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Sections 315(a) through 315(d) of the Trust Indenture Act) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel to the following effect, which Opinion of Counsel may contain such assumptions, qualifications and limitations as such counsel shall deem appropriate:
 

 
 
 

 
-22-

 

(a) the form or forms and terms of such Definitive Securities and Coupons, if any, have been established in conformity with Sections 201 and 301 of this Indenture;
 
(b) all conditions precedent set forth in Sections 201, 301 and 303 of this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of such Definitive Securities and Coupons, if any, appertaining thereto have been complied with and that such Securities, and Coupons, when completed by appropriate insertions (if applicable), executed by duly authorized officers of the Company, delivered by duly authorized officers of the Company to the Trustee for authentication pursuant to this Indenture, and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, except as enforcement thereof may be subject to or limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, arrangement, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, and subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).
 
If all the Definitive Securities of any series are not to be issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver an Opinion of Counsel at the time of issuance of each Definitive Security, but such opinion, with such modifications as counsel shall deem appropriate, shall be delivered at or before the time of issuance of the first Definitive Security of such series.  After any such first delivery, any separate request by the Company that the Trustee authenticate Definitive Securities of such series for original issue will be deemed to be a certification by the Company that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to authentication and delivery of such Definitive Securities continue to have been complied with.
 
The Trustee shall not be required to authenticate or to cause an Authenticating Agent to authenticate any Definitive Securities if the issue of such Definitive Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Definitive Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee or if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, determines that such action may not lawfully be taken.
 
Each Registered Security that is also a Definitive Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.  Each Bearer Security and any Bearer Security in global form shall be dated as of the date specified in or pursuant to this Indenture.
 
No Definitive Security or Coupon appertaining thereto shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless there appears on such Definitive Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for in Section 202 or 611 executed by or on behalf of the Trustee or by the Authenticating Agent by the electronic, manual or facsimile signature of one of its authorized signatories. Such certificate upon any Definitive Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Definitive Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. Except as permitted by Section 306 or 307 or as may otherwise be provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, the Trustee shall not authenticate and deliver any Bearer Security unless all Coupons appertaining thereto then matured have been detached and cancelled.

Section 304       Temporary Securities.
 
Pending the preparation of Definitive Securities, the Company may execute and deliver to the Trustee and, upon Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the manner provided in Section 303, temporary Securities in lieu thereof which are printed, lithographed, engraved, word processed, evidenced in electronic form or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the Definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued, in registered form or, if authorized in or pursuant to this Indenture, in bearer form with one or more Coupons or without Coupons and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers of the Company executing such Definitive Securities may determine, as conclusively evidenced by their execution of such Definitive Securities. Such temporary Securities may be in global form.
 
Except in the case of temporary Securities in global form, which shall be exchanged in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Indenture or the provisions established pursuant to Section 301, if temporary Securities are issued, the Company shall cause Definitive Securities to be prepared without unreasonable delay.  Except as otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, after the preparation of Definitive Securities of the same series and containing terms and provisions that are identical to those of any temporary Securities, such temporary Securities shall be exchangeable for such Definitive Securities upon surrender of such temporary Securities at an Office or Agency for such Securities, without charge to any Holder thereof. Except as otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities (accompanied by any unmatured Coupons appertaining thereto), the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of Definitive Securities of authorized denominations of the same series and containing identical terms and provisions;   provided, however , that no definitive Bearer Security, except as provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, shall be delivered in exchange for a temporary Registered Security; and   provided, further , that a definitive Bearer Security shall be delivered in exchange for a temporary Bearer Security only in compliance with the conditions set forth in or pursuant to this Indenture. Unless otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture with respect to a temporary global Security, until so exchanged the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as Definitive Securities of such series.
 
Section 305       Registration, Transfer and Exchange.
 
With respect to the Registered Securities of each series, if any, the Company shall cause to be kept a register (each such register being herein sometimes referred to as the “Security Register”) at an Office or Agency for such series in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of the Registered Securities of such series and of Permitted Transfers of the Registered Securities of such series.  Such Office or Agency shall be the “Security Registrar” for that series of Securities. Unless otherwise specified in or pursuant to this Indenture or the Securities, the initial Security Registrar for each series of Registered Securities shall be U-Haul International, Inc., an Affiliate of the Company, or its designee.  The Company shall have the right to remove and replace from time to time the Security Registrar for any series of Registered Securities; provided that no such removal or replacement shall be effective until a successor Security Registrar with respect to such series of Registered Securities shall have been appointed by the Company and shall have accepted such appointment.  In the event that the Trustee shall not be or shall cease to be Security Registrar with respect to a series of Registered Securities, it shall have the right to examine the Security
 

 
 
 

 
-24-

 

Register for such series at all reasonable times. There shall be only one Security Register for each series of Registered Securities.  In addition, in the event that the Trustee is not the Security Registrar, the Trustee shall (i) not be bound to make any investigation into the actions taken by the Security Registrar, (ii) may conclusively rely on the actions represented to have been taken by the Security Registrar and (iii) shall incur no liability or additional liability by reason of such reliance.
 
the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, coupon or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine, during business hours and upon reasonable notice, the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the Company and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation;
 
Except as otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, upon surrender for registration of  a Permitted Transfer of any Registered Security of any series at any Office or Agency for such series, the Company shall register (and, in the case of any Registered Security that is also a Definitive Security, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver), in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Registered Securities of the same series denominated as authorized in or pursuant to this Indenture, of a like aggregate principal amount bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding and containing identical terms and provisions.
 
Except as otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, at the option of the Holder, Registered Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Registered Securities of the same series containing identical terms and provisions, in any authorized denominations, and of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at any Office or Agency for such series.  Whenever any Registered Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall register (and, in the case of any Registered Security that is also a Definitive Security, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver), the Registered Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.
 
If provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, with respect to Securities of any series, at the option of the Holder, Bearer Securities of such series may be exchanged for Registered Securities of such series containing identical terms, denominated as authorized in or pursuant to this Indenture and in the same aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Bearer Securities to be exchanged at any Office or Agency for such series, with all unmatured Coupons and all matured Coupons in default thereto appertaining. If the Holder of a Bearer Security is unable to produce any such unmatured Coupon or Coupons or matured Coupon or Coupons in default, such exchange may be effected if the Bearer Securities are accompanied by payment in funds acceptable to the Company and the Trustee in an amount equal to the face amount of such missing Coupon or Coupons, or the surrender of such missing Coupon or Coupons may be waived by the Company and the Trustee if there is furnished to them such security or indemnity as they may require to save each of them and any Paying Agent harmless. If thereafter the Holder of such Bearer Security shall surrender to any Paying Agent any such missing Coupon in respect of which such a payment shall have been made, such Holder shall be entitled to receive the amount of such payment; provided, however , that, except as otherwise provided in Section 1002, interest represented by Coupons shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of
 

 
 
 

 
-25-

 

those Coupons at an Office or Agency for such series located outside the United States.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in case a Bearer Security of any series is surrendered at any such Office or Agency for such series in exchange for a Registered Security of such series and like tenor after the close of business at such Office or Agency on (i) any Regular Record Date and before the opening of business at such Office or Agency on the relevant Payment Date, or (ii) any Special Record Date and before the opening of business at such Office or Agency on the related date for payment of Defaulted Interest, such Bearer Security shall be surrendered without the Coupon relating to such Payment Date or proposed date of payment, as the case may be (or, if such Coupon is so surrendered with such Bearer Security, such Coupon shall be returned to the Person so surrendering the Bearer Security), and interest or Defaulted Interest, as the case may be, shall not be payable on such Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, in respect of the Registered Security issued in exchange for such Bearer Security, but shall be payable only to the Holder of such Coupon when due in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.
 
If provided in or pursuant to this Indenture with respect to Securities of any series, at the option of the Holder, Registered Securities of such series may be exchanged for Bearer Securities upon such terms and conditions as may be provided in or pursuant to this Indenture with respect to such series.
 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, the global Securities of any series shall be exchangeable for Definitive Securities of such series only if (i) the Depository for such global Securities notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as a Depository for such global Securities or at any time the Depository for such global Securities ceases to be a clearing agency registered as such under the Exchange Act, if so required by applicable law or regulation, and no successor Depository for such Securities shall have been appointed within 90 days of such notification or of the Company becoming aware of the Depository’s ceasing to be so registered, as the case may be, (ii) the Company, in its discretion, determines that the Securities of such series shall no longer be represented by one or more global Securities and executes and delivers to the Trustee a Company Order to the effect that such global Securities shall be so exchangeable, or (iii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to such Securities and the Depositary delivers to the Trustee written notice that such global Securities shall be so exchangeable.
 
If the beneficial owners of interests in a global Security are entitled to exchange such interests for Definitive Securities as the result of an event described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of the preceding paragraph, then without unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the earliest date on which such interests may be so exchanged, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee Definitive Securities in such form and denominations as are required by or pursuant to this Indenture, and of the same series, containing identical terms and in aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such global Security, executed by the Company. On or after the earliest date on which such interests may be so exchanged, such global Security shall be surrendered from time to time by the Depository (or its custodian) as shall be specified in the Company Order with respect thereto (which the Company agrees to deliver), and in accordance with instructions given to the Trustee and the Depository (which instructions shall be in writing but need not be contained in or accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate or be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel), as shall be specified in the Company Order with respect thereto to the Trustee, as the Company’s agent for such purpose, to be exchanged, in whole or in part, for Definitive Securities as described above without charge. The Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, in exchange for each portion of such surrendered global Security, a like aggregate principal amount of Definitive Securities of the same series of authorized denominations and of like
 

 
 
 

 
-26-

 

tenor as the portion of such global Security to be exchanged, which (unless such Securities are not issuable both as Bearer Securities and as Registered Securities, in which case the Definitive Securities exchanged for the global Security shall be issuable only in the form in which the Securities are issuable, as provided in or pursuant to this Indenture) shall be in the form of Bearer Securities or Registered Securities, or any combination thereof, and which shall be in such denominations and, in the case of Registered Securities, registered in such names, as shall be specified by the Depository, but subject to the satisfaction of any certification or other requirements to the issuance of Bearer Securities; provided, however, that no such exchanges may occur during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before any selection of Securities of the same series to be redeemed and ending on the relevant Redemption Date; and provided, further , that (unless otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture) no Bearer Security delivered in exchange for a portion of a global Security shall be mailed or otherwise delivered to any location in the United States.  Promptly following any such exchange in part, such global Security shall be returned by the Trustee to such Depository (or its custodian) or such other Depository (or its custodian) referred to above in accordance with the instructions of the Company referred to above, and the Trustee shall endorse such global Security to reflect the decrease in the principal amount thereof resulting from such exchange.  If a Registered Security is issued in exchange for any portion of a global Security after the close of business at the Office or Agency for such Security where such exchange occurs on or after (i) any Regular Record Date for such Security and before the opening of business at such Office or Agency on the next Payment Date, or (ii) any Special Record Date for such Security and before the opening of business at such Office or Agency on the related proposed date for payment of interest or Defaulted Interest, as the case may be, interest shall not be payable on such Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, in respect of such Registered Security, but shall be payable on such Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case may be, only to the Person to whom interest in respect of such portion of such global Security shall be payable in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.
 
All Securities issued upon any registration of a Permitted Transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company evidencing the same debt and entitling the Holders thereof to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of a Permitted Transfer or exchange.
 
Every Registered Security that is also a Definitive Security presented or surrendered for registration of a Permitted Transfer or for exchange or redemption shall (if so required by the Company or the Security Registrar for such Security) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar for such Security duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.
 
Unless otherwise provided for in a supplemental indenture establishing the terms of a Security or disclosed in the Terms of Use, no service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, or any redemption or repayment of Securities, or any conversion or exchange of Securities for other types of securities or property, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 304, 905 or 1107, upon repayment or repurchase in part of any Registered Security pursuant to Article Thirteen, or upon surrender in part of any Registered Security for conversion or exchange into Common Stock or other securities or property pursuant to its terms, in each case not involving any transfer.
 

 
 
 

 
-27-

 

Except as otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, the Company shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Securities during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the selection for redemption of Securities of like tenor and terms and of the same series under Section 1103 and ending at the close of business on the day of such selection, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Registered Security, or portion thereof, so selected for redemption, except in the case of any Registered Security to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed, or (iii) to exchange any Bearer Security so selected for redemption except, to the extent provided with respect to such Bearer Security, that such Bearer Security may be exchanged for a Registered Security of like tenor and terms and of the same series, provided that such Registered Security shall be simultaneously surrendered for redemption with written instruction for payment consistent with the provisions of this Indenture or (iv) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security which, in accordance with its terms, has been surrendered for repayment at the option of the Holder pursuant to Article Thirteen and not withdrawn, except the portion, if any, of such Security not to be so repaid.
 
The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Security (including any transfers between or among Depositary participants or beneficial owners of interests in any Global Security) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.
 
Neither the Trustee nor any Paying Agent shall have any responsibility for any actions taken or not taken by the Depositary.
 
Section 306       Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities.
 
If any mutilated Definitive Security or a Definitive Security with a mutilated Coupon appertaining to it is surrendered to the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 306, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Definitive Security of the same series containing identical terms and of like principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding, with Coupons appertaining thereto corresponding to the Coupons, if any, appertaining to the surrendered Definitive Security.
 
If there be delivered to the Company and to the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Definitive Security or Coupon, and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Definitive Security or Coupon has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and, upon the Company’s request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Definitive Security or in exchange for the Definitive Security to which a destroyed, lost or stolen Coupon appertains with all appurtenant Coupons not destroyed, lost or stolen, a new Definitive Security of the same series containing identical terms and of like principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding, with Coupons corresponding to the Coupons, if any, appertaining to such destroyed, lost or stolen Definitive Security or to the Definitive Security to which such destroyed, lost or stolen Coupon appertains.
 

 
 
 

 
-28-

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 306, in case any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Definitive Security or Coupon has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Definitive Security, pay such Definitive Security or Coupon;   provided, however , that payment of principal of, any premium or interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to any Bearer Securities shall, except as otherwise provided in Section 1002, be payable only at an Office or Agency for such Definitive Securities located outside the United States and, unless otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, any interest on Bearer Securities and any Additional Amounts with respect to such interest shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of the Coupons appertaining thereto.
 
Upon the issuance of any new Definitive Security under this Section, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.
 
Every new Definitive Security, with any Coupons appertaining thereto issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Definitive Security, or in exchange for a Definitive Security to which a destroyed, lost or stolen Coupon appertains shall constitute a separate obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Definitive Security and Coupons appertaining thereto or the destroyed, lost or stolen Coupon shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Definitive Securities of such series and any Coupons, if any, duly issued hereunder.
 
The provisions of this Section, as amended or supplemented pursuant to this Indenture with respect to particular Definitive Securities or generally, shall (to the extent lawful) be exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Definitive Securities or Coupons.

(1) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Payment to the Person in whose name such Registered Security shall be registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Payment, which shall be fixed in the following manner.  The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of the Defaulted Payment proposed to be paid on such Registered Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Payment or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit on or prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when so deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Person entitled to such Defaulted Payment as in this Clause provided.  Thereupon, the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Payment which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment.  The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Payment and the Special Record Date therefore, in the Company’s discretion, to be electronically delivered through the U-Haul Investors Club website or mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Holder of such Registered Security (if electronically through the U-Haul Investors Club Website, then via email into his U-Haul Investors Club account; and if in writing and mailed, then at his address as it appears in the Security Register) not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date.  The Company may, in its discretion, cause a similar notice to be published at least once in an Authorized Newspaper of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, but such publication shall not be a condition precedent to the establishment of such Special Record Date.  Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Payment and the Special Record Date therefor having been electronically delivered or mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted Payment shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Registered Security shall be registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (2).  In case a Bearer Security is surrendered at the Office or Agency for such Security in exchange for a Registered Security after the close of business at such Office or Agency on any Special Record Date and before the opening of business at such Office or Agency on the related proposed date for payment of the Defaulted Payment, such Bearer Security shall be surrendered without the Coupon relating to such Defaulted Payment and the Defaulted Payment shall not be payable on such proposed date of payment in respect of the Registered Security issued in exchange for such Bearer Security, but shall be payable only to the Holder of such Coupon when due in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.
 
(2) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Payment in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Security may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this Clause, such payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

In case any Definitive Securities shall have been authenticated but not delivered by the Trustee then in office, any such successor to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Definitive Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Definitive Securities. In case any Definitive Securities shall not have been authenticated by such predecessor Trustee, any such successor Trustee may authenticate and deliver such Definitive Securities in either its own name or that of its predecessor Trustee.

$50,000,000.  If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section.
 
Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall be the successor of such Authenticating Agent hereunder,   provided   such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.
 
An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall (i) mail written notice of such appointment by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to all Holders of Registered Securities that are also Definitive Securities, if any, of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent shall serve, as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register, and (ii) if Definitive Securities of the series are issued as Bearer Securities, publish notice of such appointment at least once in an Authorized Newspaper in the place where such successor Authenticating Agent has its principal office if such office is located outside the United States.

No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section.
 
The Company agrees to pay each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section.  If the Trustee makes such payments, it shall be entitled to be reimbursed for such payments.
 
The provisions of Sections 308, 603 and 604 shall be applicable to each Authenticating Agent.
 
If an Authenticating Agent is appointed with respect to one or more series of Definitive Securities pursuant to this Section, the Definitive Securities of such series may have endorsed thereon, in addition to or in lieu of the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication in substantially the following form:

Section 612       Appointment of Co-Trustee.
 
It is   the purpose of this Indenture that there shall be no violation of any law of any jurisdiction denying or restricting the right of banking corporations or associations to transact business as trustee in such jurisdiction. It is recognized that in case of litigation under this Indenture, and in particular in case of the enforcement thereof on default, or in the case the Trustee deems that by reason of any present or future law of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the powers, rights or remedies herein granted to the Trustee or hold title to the properties, in trust, as herein granted or take any action which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith, it may be necessary that the Trustee appoint an individual or institution as a separate or co-trustee. The following provisions of this Section are adopted to these ends.
 
In the event that the Trustee appoints an additional individual or institution as a separate or co-trustee, each and every remedy, power, right, claim, demand, cause of action, immunity, estate, title, interest and lien expressed or intended by this Indenture to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to the Trustee with respect thereto shall be exercisable by and vest in such separate or co-trustee but only to the extent necessary to enable such separate or co-trustee to exercise such powers, rights and remedies, and only to the extent that the Trustee by the laws of any jurisdiction is incapable of exercising such powers, rights and remedies and every covenant and obligation necessary to the exercise thereof by such separate or co-trustee shall run to and be enforceable by either of them.
 
Should any instrument in writing from the Company be required by the separate or co-trustee so appointed by the Trustee for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to it such properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations, any and all such instruments in writing shall, on request, be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Company; provided, that if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, if the Company does not execute any such instrument within fifteen (15) days after request therefor, the Trustee shall be empowered as an attorney-in-fact for the Company to execute
 

 
 
 

 
-56-

 

any such instrument in the Company’s name and stead. In case any separate or co-trustee or a successor to either shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of such separate or co-trustee, so far as permitted by law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee until the appointment of a new trustee or successor to such separate or co-trustee.
 
Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions:
 
(i)  all rights and powers, conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and may be exercised or performed by such separate trustee or co-trustee; and
 

(ii)  no trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder.
 

Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Indenture and the conditions of this Article.
 
Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time appoint the Trustee as its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Indenture on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

Section 1001     Payment of Principal, Premium, Interest and Additional Amounts.
 
The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities of each series that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of, any premium and interest on and any Additional Amounts with respect to the Securities of such series, whether payable in cash, shares of Common Stock or other securities or property, in accordance with the terms thereof, any Coupons appertaining thereto and this Indenture. Any interest due on any Bearer Security on or before the Maturity thereof, and any Additional Amounts payable with respect to such interest, shall be payable only upon presentation and surrender of the Coupons appertaining thereto for such interest as they severally mature.
 
Section 1002       Maintenance of Office or Agency.
 
Unless otherwise provided pursuant to Section 301 with respect to any series of Securities, the Company shall maintain in each Place of Payment for any series of Securities an Office or Agency where Securities of such series (but not Bearer Securities, except as otherwise provided below, unless such Place of Payment is located outside the United States) may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities of such series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, where Securities of such series that are convertible or exchangeable may be surrendered for conversion or exchange, and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities of such series relating thereto and this Indenture may be served; provided that, if (i) the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York is a Place of Payment for the Securities of any series, (ii) there shall be another Place of Payment in the United States of America for such Securities in addition to the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, and (iii) all Securities of such series are originally issued solely in the form of one or more permanent global Securities, then the Company shall not be required to maintain any such office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York unless and until all or any portion of such global Securities shall be exchanged for or otherwise issued as definitive certificated Securities of such series as contemplated by the last paragraph of this Section 1002. If Securities of a series are issuable as Bearer Securities, the Company shall maintain, subject to any laws or regulations applicable thereto, an Office or Agency in a Place of Payment for such series which is located outside the United States where Securities of such series and any Coupons appertaining thereto may be presented and surrendered for payment;   provided, however , that if the Securities of such series are listed on the London Stock Exchange or the Luxembourg Stock Exchange or any other stock exchange located outside the United States and such stock exchange shall so require, the Company shall maintain a Paying Agent in London, Luxembourg or any other required city located outside the United States, as the case may be, so long as the Securities of such series are listed on such exchange. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such Office or Agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required Office or Agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, except that Bearer Securities of such series and any Coupons appertaining thereto may be presented and surrendered for payment at the place specified for the purpose with respect to such Securities as provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.

Except as otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, no payment of principal, premium, interest or Additional Amounts with respect to Bearer Securities shall be made at any Office or Agency in the United States or by check mailed to any address in the United States or by transfer to an account maintained with a bank located in the United States;   provided, however , if amounts owing with respect to any Bearer Securities shall be payable in Dollars, payment of principal of, any premium or interest on and any Additional Amounts with respect to any such Security may be made at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or any Office or Agency designated by the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, if (but only if) payment of the full amount of such principal, premium, interest or Additional Amounts at all offices outside the United States maintained for such purpose by the Company in accordance with this Indenture is illegal or effectively precluded by exchange controls or other similar restrictions.
 
The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other Offices or Agencies where the Securities of one or more series may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however , that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an Office or Agency in each Place of Payment for Securities of any series for such purposes. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other Office or Agency.
 
Unless otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture, the Company hereby designates the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York as a Place of Payment for each series of Securities, initially appoints the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York as the Company’s Office or Agency in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York for such purpose and initially appoints the Trustee as the Security Registrar for each series of Securities and, if the Securities of any series are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock or other securities or property, initially appoints the Trustee as conversion or exchange agent, as the case may be, for the Securities of such series. The Company may subsequently appoint a different Office or Agency in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York and, as provided in Section 305, may remove and replace from time to time the Security Registrar.
 
As set forth above in this Section 1002, and unless otherwise provided pursuant to Section 301 with respect to any series of Securities, in the event that the Securities of a series are originally issued solely in the form of one or more permanent global Securities and if at any time thereafter Securities of such series are issued in definitive certificated form in exchange for all or any portion of such global Securities (whether pursuant to Section 305 or otherwise pursuant to the terms of such Securities), the Company shall, at all times from and after the date of the first such exchange until such time as no Securities of such series in definitive certificated form are Outstanding, establish and maintain an Office or Agency in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York (in addition to any other Offices or Agencies the Company is required to maintain in respect of such Securities) where Securities of such series may be surrendered and where notices and demands in respect of Securities of such series and this Indenture may be served for the purposes specified in, and as contemplated by, the first paragraph of this Section 1002.

Section 1003     Money for Securities Payments to Be Held in Trust.
 
If the Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent with respect to any series of Securities, it shall, on or before each due date of the principal of, any premium or interest on, or any Additional Amounts with respect to any of the Securities of such series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum in the Currency or Currencies in which the Securities of such series are payable sufficient to pay the principal, any premium, interest and Additional Amounts, as the case may be, so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise credited into such Person’s U-Haul Investors Club account or disposed of as herein provided.
 
Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for any series of Securities, it shall, on or prior to each due date of the principal of, or any premium or interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to, any Securities of such series, deposit with any Paying Agent a sum (in the Currency or Currencies described in the preceding paragraph) sufficient to pay the principal, premium, interest and Additional Amounts, as the case may be, so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto.
 
The Company shall cause each Paying Agent for any series of Securities other than the Trustee 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, that such Paying Agent shall:
 
(1) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities of such series) in the making of any payment of principal, any premium or interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to the Securities of such series; and
 
(2) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent.
 
To the extent that the terms of any Securities established pursuant to Section 301 provide that any principal of, or premium or interest, if any, on or any Additional Amounts with respect to any such Securities is or may be payable in Common Stock or other securities or property, then the provisions of this Section 1003 shall apply, mutatis mutandis , to such Common Stock or other securities or property.
 
The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same terms as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such sums.
 
Except as otherwise provided herein or pursuant hereto, subject to applicable law any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, any premium or interest on or any Additional Amounts with respect to any Security of any series or any Coupon appertaining thereto and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal or such premium or interest or Additional Amount shall have become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security or any Coupon appertaining thereto shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the

Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease;   provided, however , that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may, not later than 30 days after the Company’s request for such repayment, at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in an Authorized Newspaper in each Place of Payment for such series or to be mailed to Holders of Registered Securities of such series, or both, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication or mailing nor shall it be earlier than two years after such principal and any premium or interest or Additional Amounts shall have become due and payable, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company.
 
Section 1004     Additional Amounts.
 
If any Securities of a series provide for the payment of Additional Amounts, the Company agrees to pay to the Holder of any such Securities or any Coupon appertaining thereto Additional Amounts as provided in or pursuant to this Indenture or such Securities. Whenever in this Indenture there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on, or in respect of, any Security of any series or any Coupon, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts provided by the terms of such series established hereby or pursuant hereto to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof pursuant to such terms, and express mention of the payment of Additional Amounts (if applicable) in any provision hereof shall not be construed as excluding Additional Amounts in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not made.
 
Except as otherwise provided in or pursuant to this Indenture or the Securities of any series, if the Securities of a series provide for the payment of Additional Amounts, at least 10 days prior to the first Payment Date with respect to such series of Securities (or if the Securities of such series shall not bear interest prior to Maturity, the first day on which a payment of principal is made), and at least 10 days prior to each date of payment of principal or interest if there has been any change with respect to the matters set forth in the below-mentioned Officers’ Certificate, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee and the Paying Agent or Paying Agents, if other than the Trustee, an Officers’ Certificate instructing the Trustee and such Paying Agent or Paying Agents whether such payment of principal of and premium, if any, or interest, if any, on the Securities of such series shall be made to Holders of Securities of such series or the Coupons appertaining thereto who are United States Aliens without withholding or deduction for or on account of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge described in the Securities of such series or pursuant to Section 301 with respect to the Securities of such series. If any such withholding or deduction shall be required, then such Officers’ Certificate shall specify by country the amount, if any, required to be withheld on or deducted from such payments to such Holders of Securities or Coupons, and the Company agrees to pay to the Trustee or such Paying Agent the Additional Amounts required by the terms of such Securities. The Company covenants to indemnify the Trustee and any Paying Agent for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, liability or expense reasonably incurred without negligence or bad faith on their part arising out of or in connection with actions taken or omitted by any of them in reliance on any Officers’ Certificate furnished pursuant to this Section. Nothing in this Section 1004 or elsewhere in this Indenture shall limit the obligation of the Company to pay Additional Amounts with respect to the Securities of any series pursuant to the terms, if any, established pursuant to Section 301 with respect to the Securities of such series.

Redemption of Securities of any series at the option of the Company as permitted or required by the terms of such Securities shall be made in accordance with the terms of such Securities and (except as otherwise provided herein or pursuant hereto) this Article.
 
Section 1102       Notice to Trustee.
 
In case of any redemption at the election of the Company of less than all of the Securities of any series, the Company shall, at least 60 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice shall be specified with respect to the Securities of any series pursuant to Section 301), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed and, in the event that the Company shall determine that the Securities of any series to be redeemed shall be selected from Securities of such series having the same issue date, interest rate or interest rate formula, Stated Maturity and other terms (the “Equivalent Terms”), the Company shall notify the Trustee of such Equivalent Terms.
 
In the case of any redemption of Securities (A) prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture or (B) pursuant to an election of the Company which is subject to a condition specified in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction or condition.
 
Section 1103       Selection by Trustee of Securities to be Redeemed.
 
If less than all of the Securities of any series are to be redeemed or if less than all of the Securities of any series with Equivalent Terms are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee from the Outstanding Securities of such series or from the Outstanding Securities of such series with Equivalent Terms, as the case may be, not previously called for redemption, by lot or such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of portions of

the principal amount of Registered Securities of such series;   provided, however , that such method must be consistent with the terms and conditions regarding redemption provided for in a supplemental indenture establishing the terms of a Security; provided further, however , that no such partial redemption shall reduce the portion of the principal amount of a Security of such series not redeemed to less than the minimum denomination for a Security of such series established herein or pursuant hereto.  Any such method determined by the Trustee shall be final and conclusive.
 
The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company and the Security Registrar (if other than itself) in writing of the Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed.

All notices of redemption shall state:

(9) if Bearer Securities of any series are to be redeemed and any Registered Securities of such series are not to be redeemed, and if such Bearer Securities may be exchanged for Registered Securities not subject to redemption on the Redemption Date pursuant to Section 305 or otherwise, the last date, as determined by the Company, on which such exchanges may be made,
 
(10) in the case of Securities of any series that are convertible or exchangeable into Common Stock or other securities or property, the then current conversion or exchange price or rate, the date or dates on which the right to convert or exchange the principal of the Securities of such series to be redeemed will commence or terminate, as applicable, and the place or places where and the Persons to whom such Securities may be surrendered for conversion or exchange,

(a)         Any party in its reasonable discretion may give written notice to the other applicable parties that the Dispute be submitted to arbitration for final resolution.  Within fifteen (15) calendar days after receipt of such notice, the receiving parties shall submit a written response.  If the Dispute remains following the exchange of the written notice and response, the parties involved in the Dispute shall mutually select one arbitrator within fifteen (15) calendar days of receipt of the response and shall submit the matter to that arbitrator to be settled in accordance with this Section 3.01(a).  If these parties cannot mutually agree on a single arbitrator during such fifteen (15) day period, these parties shall no later than the expiration of that fifteen (15) day period jointly submit the matter to the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) for expedited arbitration proceedings to be conducted at the AAA offices, or at another mutually agreeable location, in Phoenix, Arizona pursuant to the Association Commercial Arbitration
 

 
 

 

Rules then in effect (the “Rules”).  The AAA will follow the Rules to select a single arbitrator within fifteen (15) calendar days from the date the matter is jointly submitted to the AAA.  The arbitrator (whether selected by the parties or by the AAA) shall hold a hearing within forty-five (45) calendar days following the date that the arbitrator is selected and shall provide a timeline for the parties to submit arguments and supporting materials with sufficient advance notice to enable the arbitrator to hold the hearing within that forty-five (45) day period.  The arbitrator shall issue a tentative ruling with findings of fact and law within fifteen (15) calendar days after the date of the hearing.  The arbitrator shall provide the parties an opportunity to comment on the tentative ruling within a timeframe established by the arbitrator, provided that the arbitrator shall render a final ruling within thirty (30) calendar days after the date of the hearing.  The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant any equitable and legal remedies that would be available in any judicial proceeding to resolve a disputed claim, including, without limitations, the authority to impose sanctions, including attorneys’ fees and costs, to the same extent as a competent court of law or equity.
 
(b)   The Company, Trustee and each of the Holders agree that judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in the courts of the State of Arizona or in the United States District Courts located in Arizona.  Such court may enforce the provisions of this Section 3.01(b), and the party seeking enforcement shall be entitled to an award of all costs and fees, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, to be paid by the party against whom enforcement is ordered.  The parties involved in a Dispute may terminate any arbitration proceeding by mutually resolving any Dispute prior to the issuance of a final arbitration ruling pursuant to this Section 3.01.
 
(c) For the avoidance of doubt, where a dispute arises related to the Indenture, the Notes, the U-Haul Investors Club or the Security Documents applicable to the Notes between (i) the Trustee and the Company (other than with respect to when the Trustee is acting on behalf of one or more of the Holders), (ii) the Trustee and one or more of the Holders, or (iii) the Trustee and any third party, then in no event will the arbitration provisions set forth in this Section 3.01 apply to such dispute.
 
Section 3.02   Ratification of Indenture.
 
 
The Indenture, as supplemented by this Supplemental Indenture, is in all respects ratified and confirmed, and this Supplemental Indenture will be deemed part of the Indenture in the manner and to the extent herein and therein provided; provided that the provisions of this Supplemental Indenture apply solely with respect to the Notes and not to any other Securities that may be issued pursuant to the U-Haul Investors Club.  To the extent there is a conflict between the Indenture and this Supplemental Indenture with respect to the Notes, the terms of this Supplemental Indenture will govern.
 
Section 3.03   Trustee Not Responsible for Recitals.
 
 
The recitals herein contained are made by the Company and not by the Trustee, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness thereof.  The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or sufficiency of this Supplemental Indenture, the Pledge and Security Agreement or the Collateral (as defined in the Pledge and Security Agreement).

 
 

 

 
Section 3.04   Governing Law.
 
 
This Supplemental Indenture and the Notes will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
 
Section 3.05   Separability.
 
 
In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Supplemental Indenture, the Notes will for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provisions of this Supplemental Indenture or of the Notes, but this Supplemental Indenture and the Notes will be construed as if such invalid or illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein or therein.
 
Section 3.06   Counterparts.
 
 
This Supplemental Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts each of which will be an original; but such counterparts will together constitute but one and the same instrument.  This Supplemental Indenture will be effective when one or more counterparts has been signed by the parties hereto and delivered (including by electronic transmission) to the other parties.

Exhibit 5.1
AMERCO
1325 Airmotive Way Suite 100
Reno, Nevada  89502-3239
 
February 22, 2011
 
Ladies and Gentlemen:
 
I am Secretary to AMERCO, a Nevada corporation (the “ Company ”), and have served as counsel to the Company in connection with the registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “ Act ”) of the Company’s (i) $254,800 aggregate principal amount of 4.5% Secured Notes Series UIC-01A due 2014 (the “ 4.5% Notes ”) and (ii) $500,000 aggregate principal amount of 6% Secured Notes Series UIC-02A due 2017 (the “ 6% Notes ”).  As the Company’s counsel, I have examined such corporate records, certificates and other documents, and such questions of law, as I have considered necessary or appropriate for the purposes of this opinion.
 
Upon the basis of such examination, I advise you that, in my opinion, the 4.5% Notes and the 6% Notes, respectively, constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles.
 
The foregoing opinion is limited to the laws of the State of New York, and I am expressing no opinion as to the effect of the laws of any other jurisdiction.
 
I have relied as to certain factual matters on information obtained from public officials, officers of the Company and other sources believed by me to be responsible, and I have assumed that the Base Indenture dated February 14, 2011 (the “ Base Indenture ”) by and between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “ Trustee ”), the First Supplemental Indenture dated February 17, 2011 by and between the Company and the Trustee, and the Second Supplemental Indenture dated February 17, 2011 by and between the Company and the Trustee (each of which amended and supplemented the Base Indenture) under which the 4.5% Notes and the 6% Notes were issued, respectively, have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Trustee thereunder.
 
I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K to be incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement on Form S-3, as amended, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 7, 2010 (File No. 333-169832) (the “ Registration Statement ”) and to all references to me, if any, included in or made a part of the Registration Statement.  In giving such consent, I do not thereby admit that I am in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act.
 
Very truly yours,

/s/ Jennifer M. Settles
Jennifer M. Settles, Secretary

In addition, the Trustee’s Lien against any equipment or property constituting Collateral shall be released upon the repayment in full of all Obligations and the delivery by the Company to the Trustee of an officer’s certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto.
 
6.    Termination of Security Interest .  If this Agreement is terminated, the Trustee’s Lien in the Collateral shall continue until the Obligations are repaid in full.  Upon the crediting in full of the  Obligations to each Holder’s U-Haul Investors Club account and the termination of the Notes and payment to the Trustee of all amounts due and owing to it, the Trustee shall, at the Pledgor’s sole cost and expense, release its Liens in the Collateral and all rights therein shall revert to the Pledgor.
 
7.    The Trustee’s Rights .  The Pledgor authorizes the Trustee, without giving notice to the Pledgor or obtaining the Pledgor’s consent and without affecting the Pledgor’s liability for the Obligations to the extent described herein, from time to time, to:
 
(a)   compromise, settle, renew, extend the time for payment, change the manner or terms of payment, discharge the performance of, decline to enforce, or release all or any of the Obligations; grant other indulgences to the Company in respect thereof; or modify in any manner any documents (other than this Agreement) relating to the Obligations, in each case (other than with respect to decisions not to enforce and to grant indulgences) in accordance with Financing Documents;

(ii)   any defense based upon any legal disability or other defense of any other Person;
 
(iii)   any defense based upon any lack of authority of the officers, directors or agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of the Company or any defect in the formation of the Company;

(vii)   any defense arising from any act or omission of the Trustee which changes the scope of the Pledgor’s risks hereunder;
 
(viii)   any defense based upon the Trustee’s election of any remedy against the Pledgor or the Company or both; any defense based on the order in which the Trustee enforces its remedies;
 
(ix)   any defense based on (A) the Trustee’s surrender, release, exchange, substitution, dealing with or taking any additional collateral, (B) the Trustee’s abstaining from taking advantage of or realizing upon any Lien or other guaranty, and (C) any impairment of collateral securing the Obligations,

(xiii)   any defense based upon any borrowing or any grant of a Lien under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code;

(c)   The Pledgor shall remain liable under each of its contracts and each of its licenses relating to the Collateral.  Neither the Trustee nor any Holder shall have any obligation or liability under any such contract or license by reason of or arising out of this Agreement.  Neither the Trustee nor any Holder shall be required or obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any of the Pledgor’s obligations under or pursuant to any such contract or license or to enforce any of the Pledgor’s rights under or pursuant to any contract or license.
 
(d)   In no event shall the Trustee or any Holder be responsible or liable for special, indirect, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.
 
(e)   In acting hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to all of the rights, protections, privileges and immunities afforded to the Trustee under the Indenture, and all such rights, protections, privileges and immunities are incorporated by reference herein and shall inure to the benefit of the trustee herein.
 
(f)   No provision of this Agreement shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or any exercise of any rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it and none of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall require the Trustee to perform or be responsible for the performance of any of the obligations of the Company or the Pledgor.
 
(g)   The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any matter including without limitation any default or Event of Default or any breach by the Pledgor or the Company unless one of its Responsible Officers has actual knowledge thereof or written notice thereof is received by the trustee and such notice references this Agreement or the Indenture.
 
(h)       For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding anything herein or in the Indenture to the contrary, the Trustee shall only be liable to the extent of obligations specifically imposed upon and undertaken by the trustee as pledgee hereunder and the Trustee shall only be liable to the extent of its gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties hereunder.
 
13.   Remedies and Rights During Event of Default .
 

 
7

 

(a)   In addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it under this Agreement, the Indenture, and under any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to any of the Obligations, during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Trustee may exercise all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Pledgor expressly agrees that in any such event the Trustee or any agent acting on behalf of the Trustee, without demand of performance or other demand, advertisement or notice of any kind (except the notice specified below of time and place of public or private sale) to or upon the Pledgor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, advertisements and notices are hereby expressly waived to the maximum extent permitted by the UCC and other applicable law), may forthwith enter upon the premises of the Pledgor where any Collateral is located through self-help, without judicial process, without first obtaining a final judgment or giving the Pledgor or any other Person notice and opportunity for a hearing on the Trustee’s claim or action and may collect, receive, assemble, process, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and may forthwith sell, lease, license, assign, give an option or options to purchase, or sell or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral (or contract to do so), or any part thereof, in one or more parcels at a public or private sale or sales, at any exchange at such prices as it may deem acceptable, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk.  The Trustee or any Holder shall have the right but not the obligation upon any such public sale or sales and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase for the benefit of the Trustee and Holders, the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption, which equity of redemption the Pledgor hereby releases.  Such sales may be adjourned and continued from time to time with or without notice.  The Trustee shall have the right to conduct such sales on the Pledgor’s premises or elsewhere and shall have the right to use the Pledgor’s premises without charge for such time or times as the Trustee reasonably deems necessary or advisable.
 
(b)   The Pledgor further agrees, at the Trustee’s request, to provide such information as may be needed to enable the Trustee to assemble the Collateral and, to the extent required by the UCC, to make it available to the Trustee at a place or places designated by the Trustee which are reasonably convenient to the Trustee and the Pledgor, whether at the Pledgor’s premises or elsewhere.  Until the Trustee is able to effect a sale, lease, or other disposition of Collateral, the Trustee shall have the right to hold or use Collateral, or any part thereof, to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving the Collateral or its value or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by the Trustee.  The Trustee shall have no obligation to the Pledgor to maintain or preserve the rights of the Pledgor as against third parties with respect to Collateral while Collateral is in the Trustee’s possession.  The Trustee may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of Collateral and to enforce any of the Trustee’s remedies (for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders), with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment.  The Trustee shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale to the Obligations as provided herein and in the Indenture, and only after so paying over such net proceeds, and after the payment by the Trustee of any other amount required by any provision of law, need the Trustee account for the surplus, if any, to the Pledgor.  To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Pledgor waives all claims, damages, and demands against the Trustee or any Holder arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral except such as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final nonappealable judgment to have resulted primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Trustee or such Holder.  The Pledgor agrees that ten (10) days’ prior written notice by the Trustee of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which a private sale may take place is reasonable notification of such matters.  The Company shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all Obligations, including any reasonable attorneys’ fees or other out-of-pocket expenses actually incurred by the Trustee or any Holder to collect such deficiency.
 
(c)   Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Pledgor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Agreement or any Collateral.
 
(d)   To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Trustee to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, the Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for the Trustee (i) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by the Trustee to prepare Collateral for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv)
 

 
8

 

to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (v) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as the Pledgor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral, (vi) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, (vii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (viii) to dispose of Collateral  in wholesale rather than retail markets, (ix) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (x) to purchase insurance to insure the Trustee against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Trustee a guaranteed return from the disposition of Collateral, or (xi) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Trustee, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Trustee in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral.  The Pledgor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 13(d) is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Trustee would not be commercially unreasonable in the Trustee’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Trustee shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 13(d).  Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 13(d) shall be construed to grant any rights to the Pledgor or to impose any duties on the Trustee that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section 13(d).
 
14.   Power of Attorney .  The Pledgor hereby irrevocably appoints the Trustee as its lawful attorney-in-fact, exercisable during the continuance of an Event of Default, to: (a) make, settle, and adjust all claims under the Pledgor’s insurance policies with respect to the Collateral, if any; (b) pay, contest or settle any Lien or adverse claim in or to the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge the same; and (c) transfer the Collateral into the name of the Trustee or a third party as the UCC permits.  The Pledgor hereby appoints the Company as its lawful attorney-in-fact to sign the Pledgor’s name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of any security interest regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred until all Obligations have been satisfied in full, in cash, and the Notes have terminated.  The Company’s foregoing appointment as the Pledgor’s attorney in fact, and all of the Company’s rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations have been satisfied in full, in cash and the Notes have terminated.
 
15.   Cost and Expenses; Indemnification .
 
(a)   The Company agrees to pay to the Trustee, for its benefit, on demand, (i) all fees, costs and expenses that the Trustee pays or incurs as provided in that fee letter dated January 26, 2011 between the Company and the Trustee; and (ii) sums paid or incurred to pay any amount or take any action required of the Pledgor under this Agreement that the Pledgor fails to pay or take; and (iii) costs and expenses of preserving and protecting the Collateral or taking any other action contemplated or required by this Agreement or the other Security Documents.  The foregoing shall not be construed to limit any other directly contrary provisions of this Agreement regarding costs and expenses to be paid by the Pledgor or the Company.
 
(b)   The Company will save, indemnify and keep the Trustee, and the Trustee’s officers, employees, directors and agents, and the Holders harmless from and against all expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), loss, claim, liability or damage arising out of their actions or inaction hereunder or in connection with the Collateral, the Indenture or any Security Document, except to the extent such expense, loss, claim, liability or damage is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Trustee or the Holders as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.
 
(c)   The benefits of this Section 15 shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the removal or resignation of the Trustee.
 
16.   Limitation on the Trustee’s and the Holders’ Duties with Respect to the Collateral .
 
(a)   Neither the Trustee nor any Holder shall have any other duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or nominee of the Trustee or such Holder.
 

 
9

 

(b)   The Trustee shall not be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any security interest in the Collateral.  The Trustee shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property and shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral, by reason of the act or omission of any agent or bailee selected by the Trustee in good faith.
 
(c)   The Trustee shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of the Pledgor to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral.
 
(d)   The Pledgor bears all risk of loss for damage or destruction of the Collateral.
 
17.   No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative .  The Trustee’s failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by the Pledgor of any provision of this Agreement or any other Financing Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of the Trustee thereafter to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith.  No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by the Trustee and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it is given.  The Trustee’s rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Financing Documents are cumulative.  The Trustee has all rights and remedies provided under the UCC, by law, or in equity.  The Trustee’s exercise of one right or remedy is not an election, and the Trustee’s waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver.  The Trustee’s delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence.
 
18.   Marshaling of Assets .  The Trustee shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of Pledgor, the Company or any other Person liable for the Obligations or against or in payment of any Obligations.
 
19.   Independent Obligations .  This Agreement is independent of the Company’s obligations under the Financing Documents.  The Trustee may bring a separate action to enforce the provisions hereof against the Pledgor without taking action against the Company or any other Person or joining the Company or any other Person as a party to such action.
 
20.       Term; Revival .
 
(a)   This Agreement is irrevocable by the Pledgor.  It shall terminate only upon the full satisfaction of the Obligations and termination of the Notes.  If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Pledgor shall have any nonwaivable right under applicable law or otherwise to terminate or revoke this Agreement, the Pledgor agrees that such termination or revocation shall not be effective until the Trustee receives written notice of such termination or revocation.  Such notice shall not affect the Trustee’s right and power to enforce rights arising prior to receipt thereof.
 
(b)   The Pledgor’s pledge hereunder of the Collateral shall be reinstated and revived, and the Trustee’s rights shall continue, if at any time payment and performance of the Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made.  If any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.
 
21.   Notices .  Except as otherwise provided herein, whenever it is provided herein that any notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall or may be given to or served upon any of the parties by any other party, or whenever any of the parties desire to give and serve upon the other party any
 

 
10

 

communication with respect to this Agreement, each such notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall be in writing and, in the case of the Company and the Trustee, shall be given in the manner, and deemed received, as provided for in the Indenture and in the case of the Pledgor shall be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Pledgor’s Treasurer at the address of its principal office specified below its signature block herein or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Pledgor.
 
22.   Miscellaneous .
 
(a)            Arbitration .  In the event that the Company or the Pledgor, on the one hand, and one or more of the Holders, or the Trustee as pledgee on behalf of one or more of the Holders, on the other hand, are unable to resolve any dispute, claim or controversy between them (“Dispute”) related to this Agreement, such parties agree to submit the Dispute to binding arbitration in accordance with the following terms:
 
                                     (i)      Any party in its reasonable discretion may give written notice to the other applicable parties that the Dispute be submitted to arbitration for final resolution.  Within fifteen (15) calendar days after receipt of such notice, the receiving parties shall submit a written response.  If the Dispute remains following the exchange of the written notice and response, the parties involved in the Dispute shall mutually select one arbitrator within fifteen (15) calendar days of receipt of the response and shall submit the matter to that arbitrator to be settled in accordance with this Section 22(a).  If these parties cannot mutually agree on a single arbitrator during such fifteen (15) day period, these parties shall no later than the expiration of that fifteen (15) day period jointly submit the matter to the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) for expedited arbitration proceedings to be conducted at the AAA offices, or at another mutually agreeable location, in Phoenix, Arizona pursuant to the Association Commercial Arbitration Rules then in effect (the “Rules”).  The AAA will follow the Rules to select a single arbitrator within fifteen (15) calendar days from the date the matter is jointly submitted to the AAA.  The arbitrator (whether selected by the parties or by the AAA) shall hold a hearing within forty-five (45) calendar days following the date that the arbitrator is selected and shall provide a timeline for the parties to submit arguments and supporting materials with sufficient advance notice to enable the arbitrator to hold the hearing within that forty-five (45) day period.  The arbitrator shall issue a tentative ruling with findings of fact and law within fifteen (15) calendar days after the date of the hearing.  The arbitrator shall provide the parties an opportunity to comment on the tentative ruling within a timeframe established by the arbitrator, provided that the arbitrator shall render a final ruling within thirty (30) calendar days after the date of the hearing.  The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant any equitable and legal remedies that would be available in any judicial proceeding to resolve a disputed claim, including, without limitations, the authority to impose sanctions, including attorneys’ fees and costs, to the same extent as a competent court of law or equity.
 
               ( ii)   The Company, the Pledgor, Trustee and each of the Holders agree that judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in the courts of the State of Arizona or in the United States District Courts located in Arizona.  Such court may enforce the provisions of this Section 22(a)(ii), and the party seeking enforcement shall be entitled to an award of all costs and fees, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, to be paid by the party against whom enforcement is ordered.  The parties involved in a Dispute may terminate any arbitration proceeding by mutually resolving any Dispute prior to the issuance of a final arbitration ruling pursuant to this Section 22(a).
 
               (iii)      For the avoidance of doubt, where a dispute arises related to this Pledge and Security Agreement between (x) the Trustee and the Company or the Pledgor, (y) the Trustee and one or more of the Holders, or (z) the Trustee and any third party, then in no event will the arbitration provisions set forth in this Section 22  apply to such dispute.

 
(b)   No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies .  Neither the Trustee nor any Holder shall by any act, delay or omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder, and no waiver shall be valid unless in writing, signed by the Trustee and then only to the extent therein set forth.  A waiver by the Trustee of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Trustee would otherwise have had on any future occasion.  No failure to exercise nor any delay in exercising on the part of the Trustee or any Holder, any right, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or
 

 
11

 

future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.  The rights and remedies hereunder provided are cumulative and may be exercised singly or concurrently, and are not exclusive of any rights and remedies provided by law.
 
(c)   Limitation by Law .  All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Agreement may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provision of law, and all the provisions of this Agreement are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they shall not render this Agreement invalid, unenforceable, in whole or in part, or not entitled to be recorded, registered or filed under the provisions of any applicable law.
 
(d)   Headings .  All headings appearing in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall be disregarded in construing this Agreement.
 
(e)   Governing Law .  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made or instruments entered into and, in each case, performed in said State.
 
(f)   Waiver of Jury Trial .  EACH OF THE PLEDGOR, THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
 
(g)   Successor Person Substituted for the Pledgor .  Upon any consolidation by the Pledgor with or merger of the Pledgor into any other Person or any sale, assignment, transfer, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Pledgor to any Person in accordance with Section 801 of the Base Indenture, the successor Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Pledgor is merged or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease or other conveyance is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Pledgor under this Agreement with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as the Pledgor herein; and thereafter the predecessor Person shall be released from all obligations and covenants under this Agreement.
 
(h)   Assignment; Binding Effect .  Except as provided in Section 22(g), the Pledgor may not assign this Agreement without the Trustee’s prior written consent.  This Agreement shall be binding upon the Pledgor, its successors, permitted transferees and permitted assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of the Trustee and its successors, transferees and assigns under the Indenture.

In addition, the Trustee’s Lien against any equipment or property constituting Collateral shall be released upon the repayment in full of all Obligations and the delivery by the Company to the Trustee of an officer’s certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto.

(vii)   any defense arising from any act or omission of the Trustee which changes the scope of the Pledgor’s risks hereunder;

13.   Remedies and Rights During Event of Default .
 

 
7

 

(a)   In addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it under this Agreement, the Indenture, and under any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to any of the Obligations, during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Trustee may exercise all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Pledgor expressly agrees that in any such event the Trustee or any agent acting on behalf of the Trustee, without demand of performance or other demand, advertisement or notice of any kind (except the notice specified below of time and place of public or private sale) to or upon the Pledgor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, advertisements and notices are hereby expressly waived to the maximum extent permitted by the UCC and other applicable law), may forthwith enter upon the premises of the Pledgor where any Collateral is located through self-help, without judicial process, without first obtaining a final judgment or giving the Pledgor or any other Person notice and opportunity for a hearing on the Trustee’s claim or action and may collect, receive, assemble, process, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and may forthwith sell, lease, license, assign, give an option or options to purchase, or sell or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral (or contract to do so), or any part thereof, in one or more parcels at a public or private sale or sales, at any exchange at such prices as it may deem acceptable, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk.  The Trustee or any Holder shall have the right but not the obligation upon any such public sale or sales and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase for the benefit of the Trustee and Holders, the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption, which equity of redemption the Pledgor hereby releases.  Such sales may be adjourned and continued from time to time with or without notice.  The Trustee shall have the right to conduct such sales on the Pledgor’s premises or elsewhere and shall have the right to use the Pledgor’s premises without charge for such time or times as the Trustee reasonably deems necessary or advisable.
 
(b)   The Pledgor further agrees, at the Trustee’s request, to provide such information as may be needed to enable the Trustee to assemble the Collateral and, to the extent required by the UCC, to make it available to the Trustee at a place or places designated by the Trustee which are reasonably convenient to the Trustee and the Pledgor, whether at the Pledgor’s premises or elsewhere.  Until the Trustee is able to effect a sale, lease, or other disposition of Collateral, the Trustee shall have the right to hold or use Collateral, or any part thereof, to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving the Collateral or its value or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by the Trustee.  The Trustee shall have no obligation to the Pledgor to maintain or preserve the rights of the Pledgor as against third parties with respect to Collateral while Collateral is in the Trustee’s possession.  The Trustee may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of Collateral and to enforce any of the Trustee’s remedies (for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders), with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment.  The Trustee shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale to the Obligations as provided herein and in the Indenture, and only after so paying over such net proceeds, and after the payment by the Trustee of any other amount required by any provision of law, need the Trustee account for the surplus, if any, to the Pledgor.  To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Pledgor waives all claims, damages, and demands against the Trustee or any Holder arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral except such as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final nonappealable judgment to have resulted primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Trustee or such Holder.  The Pledgor agrees that ten (10) days’ prior written notice by the Trustee of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which a private sale may take place is reasonable notification of such matters.  The Company shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all Obligations, including any reasonable attorneys’ fees or other out-of-pocket expenses actually incurred by the Trustee or any Holder to collect such deficiency.
 
(c)   Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Pledgor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Agreement or any Collateral.
 
(d)   To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Trustee to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, the Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for the Trustee (i) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by the Trustee to prepare Collateral for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv)
 

 
8

 

to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (v) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as the Pledgor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral, (vi) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, (vii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (viii) to dispose of Collateral  in wholesale rather than retail markets, (ix) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (x) to purchase insurance to insure the Trustee against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Trustee a guaranteed return from the disposition of Collateral, or (xi) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Trustee, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Trustee in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral.  The Pledgor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 13(d) is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Trustee would not be commercially unreasonable in the Trustee’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Trustee shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 13(d).  Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 13(d) shall be construed to grant any rights to the Pledgor or to impose any duties on the Trustee that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section 13(d).
 
14.   Power of Attorney .  The Pledgor hereby irrevocably appoints the Trustee as its lawful attorney-in-fact, exercisable during the continuance of an Event of Default, to: (a) make, settle, and adjust all claims under the Pledgor’s insurance policies with respect to the Collateral, if any; (b) pay, contest or settle any Lien or adverse claim in or to the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge the same; and (c) transfer the Collateral into the name of the Trustee or a third party as the UCC permits.  The Pledgor hereby appoints the Company as its lawful attorney-in-fact to sign the Pledgor’s name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of any security interest regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred until all Obligations have been satisfied in full, in cash, and the Notes have terminated.  The Company’s foregoing appointment as the Pledgor’s attorney in fact, and all of the Company’s rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations have been satisfied in full, in cash and the Notes have terminated.
 
15.   Cost and Expenses; Indemnification .
 
(a)   The Company agrees to pay to the Trustee, for its benefit, on demand, (i) all fees, costs and expenses that the Trustee pays or incurs as provided in that Fee letter dated January 26, 2011 between the Company and the Trustee; and (ii) sums paid or incurred to pay any amount or take any action required of the Pledgor under this Agreement that the Pledgor fails to pay or take; and (iii) costs and expenses of preserving and protecting the Collateral or taking any other action contemplated or required by this Agreement or the other Security Documents.  The foregoing shall not be construed to limit any other directly contrary provisions of this Agreement regarding costs and expenses to be paid by the Pledgor or the Company.
 
(b)   The Company will save, indemnify and keep the Trustee, and the Trustee’s officers, employees, directors and agents, and the Holders harmless from and against all expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), loss, claim, liability or damage arising out of their actions or inaction hereunder or in connection with the Collateral, the Indenture or any Security Document, except to the extent such expense, loss, claim, liability or damage is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Trustee or the Holders as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.
 
(c)   The benefits of this Section 15 shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the removal or resignation of the Trustee.
 
16.   Limitation on the Trustee’s and the Holders’ Duties with Respect to the Collateral .

(b)   The Trustee shall not be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any security interest in the Collateral.  The Trustee shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property and shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral, by reason of the act or omission of any agent or bailee selected by the Trustee in good faith.
 
(c)   The Trustee shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of the Pledgor to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral.
 
(d)   The Pledgor bears all risk of loss for damage or destruction of the Collateral.
 
17.   No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative .  The Trustee’s failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by the Pledgor of any provision of this Agreement or any other Financing Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of the Trustee thereafter to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith.  No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by the Trustee and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it is given.  The Trustee’s rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Financing Documents are cumulative.  The Trustee has all rights and remedies provided under the UCC, by law, or in equity.  The Trustee’s exercise of one right or remedy is not an election, and the Trustee’s waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver.  The Trustee’s delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence.
 
18.   Marshaling of Assets .  The Trustee shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of Pledgor, the Company or any other Person liable for the Obligations or against or in payment of any Obligations.
 
19.   Independent Obligations .  This Agreement is independent of the Company’s obligations under the Financing Documents.  The Trustee may bring a separate action to enforce the provisions hereof against the Pledgor without taking action against the Company or any other Person or joining the Company or any other Person as a party to such action.
 
20.       Term; Revival .
 
(a)   This Agreement is irrevocable by the Pledgor.  It shall terminate only upon the full satisfaction of the Obligations and termination of the Notes.  If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Pledgor shall have any nonwaivable right under applicable law or otherwise to terminate or revoke this Agreement, the Pledgor agrees that such termination or revocation shall not be effective until the Trustee receives written notice of such termination or revocation.  Such notice shall not affect the Trustee’s right and power to enforce rights arising prior to receipt thereof.
 
(b)   The Pledgor’s pledge hereunder of the Collateral shall be reinstated and revived, and the Trustee’s rights shall continue, if at any time payment and performance of the Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made.  If any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.
 
21.   Notices .  Except as otherwise provided herein, whenever it is provided herein that any notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall or may be given to or served upon any of the parties by any other party, or whenever any of the parties desire to give and serve upon the other party any

communication with respect to this Agreement, each such notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall be in writing and, in the case of the Company and the Trustee, shall be given in the manner, and deemed received, as provided for in the Indenture and in the case of the Pledgor shall be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Pledgor’s Treasurer at the address of its principal office specified below its signature block herein or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Pledgor.
 
22.   Miscellaneous .
 
(a)            Arbitration .  In the event that the Company or the Pledgor, on the one hand, and one or more of the Holders, or the Trustee as pledgee on behalf of one or more of the Holders, on the other hand, are unable to resolve any dispute, claim or controversy between them (“Dispute”) related to this Agreement, such parties agree to submit the Dispute to binding arbitration in accordance with the following terms:
 
                                               (i)      Any party in its reasonable discretion may give written notice to the other applicable parties that the Dispute be submitted to arbitration for final resolution.  Within fifteen (15) calendar days after receipt of such notice, the receiving parties shall submit a written response.  If the Dispute remains following the exchange of the written notice and response, the parties involved in the Dispute shall mutually select one arbitrator within fifteen (15) calendar days of receipt of the response and shall submit the matter to that arbitrator to be settled in accordance with this Section 22(a).  If these parties cannot mutually agree on a single arbitrator during such fifteen (15) day period, these parties shall no later than the expiration of that fifteen (15) day period jointly submit the matter to the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) for expedited arbitration proceedings to be conducted at the AAA offices, or at another mutually agreeable location, in Phoenix, Arizona pursuant to the Association Commercial Arbitration Rules then in effect (the “Rules”).  The AAA will follow the Rules to select a single arbitrator within fifteen (15) calendar days from the date the matter is jointly submitted to the AAA.  The arbitrator (whether selected by the parties or by the AAA) shall hold a hearing within forty-five (45) calendar days following the date that the arbitrator is selected and shall provide a timeline for the parties to submit arguments and supporting materials with sufficient advance notice to enable the arbitrator to hold the hearing within that forty-five (45) day period.  The arbitrator shall issue a tentative ruling with findings of fact and law within fifteen (15) calendar days after the date of the hearing.  The arbitrator shall provide the parties an opportunity to comment on the tentative ruling within a timeframe established by the arbitrator, provided that the arbitrator shall render a final ruling within thirty (30) calendar days after the date of the hearing.  The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant any equitable and legal remedies that would be available in any judicial proceeding to resolve a disputed claim, including, without limitations, the authority to impose sanctions, including attorneys’ fees and costs, to the same extent as a competent court of law or equity.
 
(ii)   The Company, the Pledgor, the Trustee and each of the Holders agree that judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in the courts of the State of Arizona or in the United States District Courts located in Arizona.  Such court may enforce the provisions of this Section 22(a)(ii), and the party seeking enforcement shall be entitled to an award of all costs and fees, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, to be paid by the party against whom enforcement is ordered.  The parties involved in a Dispute may terminate any arbitration proceeding by mutually resolving any Dispute prior to the issuance of a final arbitration ruling pursuant to this Section 22(a).
 
(iii)      For the avoidance of doubt, where a dispute arises related to this Pledge and Security Agreement between (x) the Trustee and the Company or the Pledgor, (y) the Trustee and one or more of the Holders, or (z) the Trustee and any third party, then in no event will the arbitration provisions set forth in this Section 22  apply to such dispute.

(b)   No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies .  Neither the Trustee nor any Holder shall by any act, delay or omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder, and no waiver shall be valid unless in writing, signed by the Trustee and then only to the extent therein set forth.  A waiver by the Trustee of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Trustee would otherwise have had on any future occasion.  No failure to exercise nor any delay in exercising on the part of the Trustee or any Holder, any right, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.  The rights and remedies hereunder
 

 
11

 

provided are cumulative and may be exercised singly or concurrently, and are not exclusive of any rights and remedies provided by law.
 
(c)   Limitation by Law .  All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Agreement may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provision of law, and all the provisions of this Agreement are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they shall not render this Agreement invalid, unenforceable, in whole or in part, or not entitled to be recorded, registered or filed under the provisions of any applicable law.
 
(d)   Headings .  All headings appearing in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall be disregarded in construing this Agreement.
 
(e)   Governing Law .  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made or instruments entered into and, in each case, performed in said State.
 
(f)   Waiver of Jury Trial .  EACH OF THE PLEDGOR, THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
 
(g)   Successor Person Substituted for the Pledgor .  Upon any consolidation by the Pledgor with or merger of the Pledgor into any other Person or any sale, assignment, transfer, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Pledgor to any Person in accordance with Section 801 of the Base Indenture, the successor Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Pledgor is merged or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease or other conveyance is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Pledgor under this Agreement with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as the Pledgor herein; and thereafter the predecessor Person shall be released from all obligations and covenants under this Agreement.
