And it is hereby expressly cove¬ nanted that all such bonds and the coupons for interest thereon shall be issued, certified and delivered, received and negotiated, and that the mortgaged properties and premises are hereby conveyed, as¬ signed and transferred by the Railroad Company, and are to be held by said Trustee subject to the further covenants, conditions, uses and trusts hereinafter set forth. Article i. The aggregate amount of all the bonds which may be issued and outstanding under this Indenture, and for the better securing of which this Indenture is made, shall not, in any event, exceed seven million, one hundred and eighty-five thousand (7,185,000) dollars, all of which with all coupons for interest thereon attached shall forth¬ with be executed by the Railroad Company, and delivered to the Trustee for certification ; and the Trustee shall certify and deliver the same upon the order of Samuel Carr, Walter G.

The person in whose name any bond is registered shall for all purposes be deemed and regarded as the owner thereof, and thereafter payment of the princi¬ pal of such bond, if it be a registered coupon bond, shall be made only to such registered holder, or upon his order; but such registra¬ tion may be changed as hereinafter provided. All such payments so made shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability upon such bond to the extent of the sum or sums so paid. Said coupon bonds shall pass by delivery, unless registered in the owner’s name upon said books of registration, such registration being noted on the respective bonds by the bond registrar of the Railroad Company. After such registration of a coupon bond, no transfer thereof shall be valid unless made on said books by the registered owner or his attorney and similarly noted on the bond ; but the same may be discharged from registry by being transferred to bearer, after which transferability by delivery shall be restored, and it shall continue subject to successive registrations and transfers to bearer as before. Such registration, however, shall not affect the negotiability of the coupons, but the same shall con¬ tinue to be transferable by delivery, notwithstanding registration of the bond. Article 3. Interest upon the bonds to be issued hereunder shall be payable according to the tenor thereof and of the coupons thereto attached only upon presentation and surrender of the respective coupons an¬ nexed to said bonds, as such coupons respectively mature, out of the net earnings of the Railroad Company as hereinafter defined and provided. The net earnings of the Railroad Company shall be deter¬ mined as follows : The said company shall render to the Trustee on the first day of August in each and every year during the continuance of this Indenture an account of the gross earnings, income, receipts, inter¬ est, dividends, or profits received from the operation of the properties and lines of railway covered by this Indenture of Trust — and from such other properties and lines of railway leased or otherwise ac¬ quired by the Railroad Company, the cost of rental or acquisition of which has been charged against the gross earnings of said Rail¬ road Company in conformity with the provisions of this paragraph — during the year ending with the thirtieth day of June last pre¬ ceding the day on which such account is rendered. It shall charge against such gross earnings all operating and maintenance expenses, taxes, repairs, renewals, replacements (including not exceeding the sum of fifty thousand (50,000) dollars a year for the acquisition of such new equipment through a car trust or trusts or otherwise 15 as may be necessary for the safe and economical operation of said lines of railway), and insurance, and such improvements only as are necessary for the economical administration of said properties and lines of railway, and rental of such terminal properties as may like¬ wise be necessary for the proper operation of such railway, and all interest or other sums secured by mortgage or otherwise charged 0 upon the property hereby conveyed as a lien superior hereto. And the Trustee shall have access to the books of the said Railroad Company, through any accountant it may appoint for that purpose, to ascertain the true state of said Company’s accounts ; and in the event that it is claimed by the holders of one million (1,000,000) dol¬ lars in amount of the bonds hereunder that there are net earnings applicable to the payment of the interest on the bonds secured hereby as herein defined, and the account rendered to the Trustee by the Railroad Company shows no such net earnings or no such amount thereof as is claimed, then and in that event the Trustee shall, upon application to it of the holders of one million (1,000,000) dollars in amount of the said bonds and on being duly indemnified, institute an investigation of said question. Such net earnings as shall remain after such above specified charges have been made shall be up to the amount of the interest coupons next due on the bonds hereunder paid over to the Trustee on or before the first day of September, to be by said Trustee applied to the payment of the interest on said bonds hereunder. If, however, said net earn¬ ings are insufficient to pay such interest in full, then all the net earnings of the Railroad Company, as above determined, shall, on or before the first day of September, be paid over to the Trustee, which shall apply them to the payment of said interest, appor¬ tioning said net earnings ratably and equally among all bonds issued hereunder and outstanding. It is further understood and agreed between the parties to this instrument that, if it should at any time be deemed expedient to apply any portion of the earnings of the said Railroad Company to purposes other than those hereinbefore specified in this section, the said earnings may be so applied; provided, however, the written sanction of the Trustee, the party of the second part, shall first be obtained, the granting of which sanction shall be discretionary with the party of the second part; and, in that event, all expenditures made and included within the terms of the said sanction shall be charged against the gross earnings of the party of the first part, and no payments shall be made on the said coupons unless there shall remain a surplus after charging the expenditures made as aforesaid in addition to the items first above specified. Provided, however, that the Railroad Company shall not be under any obligation to pay over its net earnings to the Trustee, in conformity with the above provisions of this article, unless such net earnings amount to at least one-quarter of one per cent, of the aggregate par value of all the bonds hereby secured then outstanding. If the account rendered to the Trustee by the Railroad Company discloses net earnings, but such net earnings do not amount to one- quarter of one per cent, of the aggregate par value of all the bonds hereby secured then outstanding, then the Railroad Company shall retain the amount of such earnings and shall add the same to the amount of any subsequent net earnings which, under the terms of this Indenture, are payable to the Trustee as being applicable to the payment of the interest on the bonds secured hereby, and shall pay the same over to the Trustee at such future time with such subsequent earnings. The right to interest shall not be cumulative, but shall be restricted to net earnings, defined as above and earned at any time during the year ending on the thirtieth day of June next preceding the date on which such interest becomes due. It is further understood and agreed that the amount payable as interest on the bonds hereby secured shall not exceed five per cent. The account above directed to be rendered and kept by the Rail¬ road Company shall be stated for the period of one year ending with the thirtieth day of June last preceding the date of the maturing cou¬ pon, and all net earnings disclosed by such account as earned during such year shall be applicable to the payment of said maturing coupon. And whereas, under the provisions of this article, it is contem¬ plated that the Railroad Company is to pay over to the Trustee its net earnings, or the proper part thereof, on or about the first day of September in each year during the continuance of this Indenture, to be applied by the Trustee to the payment of the interest on the 17 bonds hereunder; and whereas the coupons on said bonds here¬ under mature on the first day of September in each such year, now, therefore, it is further agreed between the said Railroad Company and said Trustee that the Trustee will pay to the said Railroad Company interest on the sums received by it as representing said net earnings at the usual current rate paid by the Old Colony Trust Company, for the period of time elapsing between the receipt of such moneys by the Trustee and the application of the same by said Trustee to the payment of the interest on the bonds secured hereby. The Railroad Company further covenants' and agrees that no dividend shall ever be paid in any year on the stock of the company now issued or hereafter outstanding, unless a full instalment of in¬ terest as herein described for the same year shall be paid on all Income A Ronds issued under and secured by this Indenture then outstanding. If the Railroad Company fails to return to the Trustee a proper account of its earnings and expenses as required by this article within six months after written demand for such account has been given to the Railroad Company by the Trustee, the Railroad Com¬ pany shall be deemed to be in default, and the remedies provided for in Articles 6 and 7 hereof shall become operative. If the account rendered by the Railroad Company discloses net earnings amounting to one-quarter of one per cent, of the total par value of the bonds hereunder, and the said company fails to pay over such net earnings, or the proper part thereof, as herein speci¬ fied, to the Trustee, and such failure continues for the period of six months after written notice of such default has been given to said Railroad Company, then the Railroad Company shall be deemed to be in default, and the remedies provided for in Articles 6 and 7 shall become operative. Article 4. And in the event that the account rendered to the Trustee by the Railroad Company discloses no net earnings, and the Trustee claims that in fact there are net earnings applicable to the pay¬ ment of interest on said bonds, or in case the Trustee claims that ) 18 there are net earnings applicable to the payment of interest on said bonds in excess of the net earnings disclosed by the account rendered to the Trustee, then the Trustee may give notice to the Railroad Company in writing of such claim made by it, and, if such claim is not complied with by payment by the Railroad Com¬ pany of the sum claimed within three months after such demand, the Trustee may file in any court of competent jurisdiction a bill of complaint for an accounting and for foreclosure to sell the mort¬ gaged property in accordance with the provisions of Article 7 of this Indenture, and to foreclose the right of redeeming the same, and if it be ascertained in such suit by final decree that there were in fact net earnings applicable to the payment of such interest on said bonds in addition to the amount, if any, disclosed in said account, then such final decree shall contain a provision that, if within sixty days after the making of such decree the Railroad Company shall pay over to the Trustee such amount as the court shall determine to be payable by it as its net earnings applicable to the payment of the interest in question on the bonds in question, then said Railroad Company shall be relieved from such default; but if within said sixty days such amount determined as aforesaid shall not be paid, then, and in that case, at the option of the Trustee, the principal of the bonds shall become due, and the property covered by this mortgage or deed of trust shall be sold, and the right of redeeming the same be foreclosed, and, upon such sale taking place, the principal of said bonds shall in any event become due. Provided, however, that proceedings for the foreclosure of this Indenture under the provisions of this article must be begun within nine months after the rendering of the particular account objected to, otherwise such account shall be final and not subject to any objection by the Trustee or the bondholders hereunder, and that nothing herein contained shall be construed to cut off any right of appeal by the Railroad Company. The remedy herein provided for breach of the duty of the Rail¬ road Company imposed by this article shall be exclusive of all other remedies, anything in this Indenture to the contrary notwith- '9 standing, until the final decree as aforesaid has been rendered against the Railroad Company. Article 5. The Railroad Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of the holders of the bonds hereunder, that no liens or encumbrances whatever, prior to the lien of this Indenture, shall be created by the contractual or voluntary act of the Railroad Company upon or against the corpus of the properties and lines of railway of the said Oregon Short Line Railroad Company, covered by this Indenture, other than the liens, encumbrances and obligations specified as follows, to wit : (1) The underlying divisional mortgages existing on lines of rail¬ way owned by companies formerly subordinate to, and affiliated with, the Oregon Short Line and Utah Northern Railway Company, to wit: (a) The Oregon Short Line Railway Company’s First Mort¬ gage, due February 1, 1922, securing an aggregate of fourteen million, nine hundred and thirty-one thousand (14,931,000) dollars of six per cent, bonds.

(5) The rights, if any, of the Montana Union Railway Company under the lease or agreement purporting to be a lease to it by the LTah and Northern Railway Company, dated August 1, 1886. 20 And it is expressly understood and agreed that unless the holders of a majority in interest of the Income A Bonds issued hereunder have duly consented thereto at a meeting of such Income A bond¬ holders, to be called by the Trustee, and at which meeting a majority in interest of the holders of the said bonds hereunder shall be repre¬ sented and voting, no liens or encumbrances shall be created by the Railroad Company upon the property and lines of railway covered by this Indenture which are to be in any way superior or prior to or to stand in equal position with the bonds hereby secured, except as in Sections i, 2, 3, 4, and 5 of the above schedule specified, and no bonds or obligations under such liens or encumbrances specified in said schedule shall be issued by said Railroad Company to an aggre¬ gate amount larger than as above provided. With the exception only of the prior liens and encumbrances hereinbefore stated, unless the same should be increased by consent as above provided, the lien of the within Indenture or deed of trust and the obligations contained in the bonds issued hereunder shall be the paramount lien and obligation of the Railroad Company, so far as liens created by the Railroad Company on the property and lines of railway covered by this Indenture are concerned. It is agreed and understood that in case the Railroad Company at¬ tempts by its own act to create any further lien on its said property in disregard of the provisions of this article, or to issue any larger amount of bonds of any of the series above referred to than by this article provided and allowed, then said Railroad Company shall be deemed to be in default, and after continuance of such default for six months the remedies provided for in articles six and seven hereof shall become operative. Article 6. In case of default in the payment of interest on any of the bonds hereby secured due as hereinbefore provided, and such default continues for a period of six months after demand for payment of said interest or any of it, or in case the principal of the Consolidated Bonds has been declared due as in the mortgage securing said bonds is provided, or in case default has been made in the payment of the interest of any of said Consolidated Bonds, and is continued for a period of six months after written demand for the payment of said interest or any part of it, then the said Trustee may, by notice in writing delivered to the Railroad Company, declare the principal of all bonds hereby secured to be due and payable ; and, upon the request in writing of twenty-five (25) per cent, in amount of the holders of the then outstanding bonds hereby secured, the Trustee shall so declare the said principal sum to be at once due and pay¬ able, anything in this Indenture or in said bonds contained to the contrary notwithstanding. The holders of a majority in amount of the bonds hereby se¬ cured may thereafter annul or reverse any such declaration which may have been made by the Trustee in their behalf, respectively, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding ; and, after such declaration shall have been annulled, all proceedings founded on such declaration shall thereupon cease and be discon¬ tinued at the expense of the Railroad Company and the bonds here¬ under shall continue to run as though such declaration had not been made. It is expressly understood that the action of the Trustee or of the bondholders in case of any one default shall not affect or impair the rights of the Trustee or of such bondholders in respect to any subsequent default on the part of the company or impair any rights resulting therefrom. Article 7. No coupon for interest on any bond hereby secured, which in any way, on or after the date of the maturity thereof, shall be assigned, transferred or pledged separate and apart from the bond to which it relates, shall, unless accompanied by such bond, be entitled, in case of default hereunder, to the benefit or security of this Indenture, except subject to the prior payment in full of the principal of all bonds issued hereunder and outstanding and of all coupons and claims for interest on all said bonds not so assigned, transferred or pledged. In case default shall be made in the payment upon demand of any interest on any of said bonds hereby secured, as and when such interest shall become due and payable, and such default shall con¬ tinue for a period of six months, or in case default shall be made in 22 ) payment upon demand of the principal of any of said bonds when the same shall become due and payable, or in case default shall be made in the performance or observance of any covenants or condi¬ tions herein required to be performed or observed by the Railroad Company, and any such default shall continue for a period of six months after the Trustee shall have requested in writing the Rail¬ road Company to perform or observe such covenant or condition, then, and in every such case, the Railroad Company shall, upon demand of the Trustee, forthwith surrender to the Trustee the actual possession of, and the Trustee personally, or by its agents or attorneys, shall be entitled forthwith to enter into or upon all or any part of the railroad property and premises, lands, rights, interests and franchises hereby conveyed, or intended so to be, and each and every part thereof, and may exclude the Railroad Company, its agents and servants, wholly therefrom, and, having and holding the same, may use, operate, manage and control said railways and other premises, regulate the tolls for the transportation of passengers and freight thereon, and conduct the business thereof, either personally or by its superintendents or attorneys, to the best advantage, as well of the public as of the holders of the bonds hereby secured, in accordance with law and with any statute relating to said railways and other premises, or any part thereof, or to the operation thereof. And upon every such entry the Trustee, at the expense of the trust estate, from time to time, either by purchase, repairs or construction, may maintain and restore and insure or keep insured the rolling stock, tools and machinery and other property, buildings, bridges and structures erected or provided for use in connection with said rail¬ ways and other premises, and whereof it shall become possessed as aforesaid, in the same manner and to the same extent as is usual with railway companies, and likewise, from time to time, at the ex¬ pense of the trust estate, may make all necessary or proper repairs, renewals and replacements and useful alterations, additions, better¬ ments and improvements thereto and thereon, as well in respect of the rolling stock or equipments as in respect of the railways and appurtenances and other subject-matters, as to it may seem judi¬ cious, and it may collect and receive all tolls, freights and incomes, rents, issues and profits of the same, and every part thereof; and, 23 after deducting the expenses of operating and maintaining said rail¬ ways and other premises, and of conducting the business thereof, and of all repairs, maintenance, renewals, replacements, alterations, additions, betterments and improvements, and all payments which may be made for taxes, assessments, insurance and prior or other charges upon said premises and property, or any part thereof, as well as just and reasonable compensation for its own services and for all attorneys and counsel, agents, clerks, servants and other employees by it properly engaged and employed, it shall apply the moneys arising as aforesaid as follows : In case the principal of the bonds hereby secured shall not have become due, first to the payment of the interest remaining in default in the order of the maturity of such interest upon any and all said bonds, such payments in every instance to be made, with interest on the overdue instalments of interest, ratably to the persons en¬ titled thereto without discrimination or preference. In case the .principal of the bonds hereby secured shall have become due, by declaration or otherwise, first to the payment of accrued interest in the order of maturity of the instalments thereof upon any and all said bonds, and next to the payment of the princi¬ pal of any and all said bonds, in every instance such payments to be made, with interest on overdue instalments of interest, ratably to the persons entitled to such payments without any discrimination or preference. The foregoing provisions are, however, subject to the provision as to postponing the rights of holders of detached coupons unless accompanied by the bond to which they relate as hereinbefore provided. In case default shall be made in the payment upon demand of any interest on any of said bonds hereby secured as and when such interest shall become due and payable, and such default shall continue for a period of six months, or in case default shall be made in the payment upon demand of the principal of any of said bonds, when the same shall become due and payable, or in case default shall be made in the performance or observance of any covenant or condition herein required to be performed or observed by the Railroad Company, and any such default shall continue for a period of six months after the Trustee shall have requested in 24 writing the Railroad Company to perform or observe such covenant or condition, then, and in every such case, the Trustee shall be entitled, with or without entry, personally or by attorney in its discretion, either to: (a) Sell the said mortgaged property, rights and interests at public auction, at the city of Salt Lake, State of Utah, at such time and upon such terms as the Trustee may fix, first giving notice of the time and place of the sale, and a brief de¬ scription of the property to be sold, by publication once in each week for four successive weeks in a newspaper published in the city of Salt Lake, Utah, in a newspaper published in the city of New York, New York, and in a newspaper published in the city of Boston, Massachusetts; and the Trustee may from time to time adjourn such sale in its discretion and hold such adjourned sale without further notice. (b) The Trustee may proceed to protect and enforce the rights of the bondholders under this Indenture by a suit or suits in equity or at law, whether for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained herein or in aid of the execu- tion of any power herein granted, or for the foreclosure of this Indenture, or for the enforcement of any proper, equitable or legal remedy as the Trustee, being advised by counsel learned in the law, may deem most effectual to protect and enforce any of its rights or duties hereinunder. (c) Upon any such sale, the Trustee may make and deliver to the accepted purchaser or purchasers of the property, rights and interests so sold, good and sufficient deed or deeds for the same, and any such sale shall be a perpetual bar at law and in equity against the Railroad Company and against all persons and corpo¬ rations claiming or to claim by, through or under it. And the receipt of the Trustee shall be a sufficient discharge for the purchaser or purchasers of the property sold as aforesaid for the purchase money, and no such purchaser or his several representa¬ tives, vendees, grantees or assigns, after paying such purchase money and receiving such receipt, shall be bound to see to the application of such purchase money upon or for any trust or pur- 25 pose of this Indenture, or in any manner whatsoever be answer- able for any loss, misapplication or non-application of any such purchase money or any part thereof, or be bound to inquire as to the authorization, necessity, expediency or regularity of any such sale. In case the mortgaged premises shall be sold upon a default hereunder, the whole of the principal sum of all the bonds hereby secured, if not previously declared due, shall at once become due and payable, anything in said bonds or herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding. The proceeds of any such sale, or of a sale of the mortgaged premises upon a foreclosure by judicial proceedings, shall be applied as follows: ist. To the payment of the costs and expenses of such sale, including a reasonable compensation to the Trustee, its agents, attorneys and counsel, and of all expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the Trustee in managing and maintaining the property hereby conveyed or intended so to be, and of all taxes, assessments or charges prior to the lien of these presents, except any taxes, assessments or other superior charges to which such sale shall have been made subject. 2d. To the payment of the whole amount then due and unpaid upon the bonds hereby secured for principal and interest, together with interest on overdue instalments of interest. If such proceeds shall be insufficient to pay in full the amounts so due and unpaid upon said bonds, then the principal and interest of the said bonds shall be paid without preference or priority of principal over interest or interest over principal or of any instal¬ ment of interest over any other instalment of interest, ratably to the aggregate of such principal and accrued and unpaid interest. The foregoing provisions are, however, in each case, subject to the provision hereinbefore made postponing rights of holders of detached coupons, unless accompanied by the bond to which they relate. 3d. To the payment of the surplus, if any, to the Railroad Company, its successors or assigns, or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same. 2 6 For any deficiency in the amount of the principal and interest due to the said bondholders and not paid to them, after all the remedies above set forth and specified have been exhausted, the Railroad Company shall, after such deficiency is ascertained, be and remain liable to such holders of such bonds, and the amount of such deficiency shall be at once payable to said holders from the Railroad Company notwithstanding the date expressed in and according to the terms of said bonds as the day of maturity. And the Trustee may recover a judgment for such deficiency in trust for such bondholders, and may execute the same, and such judgment for deficiency may be recovered in the proceedings to foreclose the mortgage on the property of the Railroad Company, if the Trustee and the court in which such foreclosure proceedings are brought so determine. In the event of any sale pursuant to any provision hereof, whether made under the power of sale hereby granted and conferred or under or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of some judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale made by any court of competent jurisdiction, the whole of the property hereby mortgaged shall be sold in one parcel as an entirety, including all the rights, titles, estates, railroads, equipment, franchises, leases, leasehold interests, contracts and other real and personal property of every name and nature; and this provision shall bind the parties hereto and each and every of the holders of the bonds and coupons hereby secured or intended so to be. And the Trustee and its successors are hereby appointed the true and lawful attorney or attorneys irrevocable of the Railroad Company, in its name and stead to make all necessary deeds and conveyances of property and all necessary transfers of the shares of stock or bonds or other obliga¬ tions thus sold; and for that purpose it and they may execute all necessary acts of assignment and transfer, and may substitute one or more persons with like power, the Railroad Company hereby ratifying and confirming all that its said attorney or attorneys, or such substitute or substitutes, shall lawfully do by virtue hereof. In case of any sale hereunder, whether by the Trustee or pur¬ suant to judicial proceedings, any and all purchasers in making settlement or payment shall be entitled to turn in any bonds and 27 any matured and unpaid coupons hereby secured, estimating the value of such bonds and coupons for that purpose at the sum payable out of the net proceeds of such sale to the holder or holders of such bonds and coupons as his or their ratable share of such net proceeds, after allowing for the proportion of the total payment required to be made in cash for the cost and expenses of the sale or otherwise; and at any and every such sale any or all of the bondholders may bid for and purchase such property, and upon compliance with the terms of the sale may hold, retain and dispose of such property without further accountability therefor. Upon filing a bill in equity or upon commencement of any other judicial proceedings to enforce any right of the Trustee or the bondholders under this Indenture the Trustee shall be entitled to exercise the right of entry herein conferred, and also any and all other rights and powers herein and hereby conferred, and provided to be exercised by the Trustee upon the occurrence and continu¬ ance of default as hereinbefore provided; and, as matter of right, the Trustee shall be entitled to the appointment of a receiver or receivers of the premises hereby mortgaged, and of the earnings, income, revenue, rents, issues or profits thereof, with such powers as the court making such appointment shall confer. The Railroad Company shall not and will not at any time insist upon or plead, or in any manner whatever claim or take the benefit or advantage of any stay or extension law now or at any time here¬ after in force in any locality where the mortgaged premises or any part thereof may or shall be situate, nor will it claim, take or insist on any benefit or advantage from any law now or hereafter in force providing for the valuation or appraisement of the mortgaged prem¬ ises, or any part thereof, prior to any sale or sales thereof to be made pursuant to any provision herein contained, or to the decree of any court of competent jurisdiction, nor after any such sale or sales will it claim or exercise any right under any statute enacted by the Congress of the United States or by the legislature of any State or Territory to redeem the property so sold or any part thereof; and it hereby expressly waives all benefit and advantage of any such law or laws, and it agrees that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted and delegated to ) 28 the Trustee, but that it will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law or laws had been made or enacted. No holder of any bond or coupon hereby secured shall have any right to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law for the foreclosure of this Indenture or for the execution of any trust thereof or for the appointment of a receiver, or for any other rem¬ edy hereunder, without first giving to the Trustee written notice of the fact that default has occurred and continued as hereinbe¬ fore provided, nor unless also the holders of twenty-five (25) per cent, in amount of the then outstanding bonds shall have requested the Trustee, in writing, and shall have afforded to it reasonable opportunity either itself to proceed to exercise the powers hereinbe¬ fore granted, or to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name, nor unless also they shall have offered to the Trustee adequate security and indemnity against the cost, expenses and lia¬ bilities to be incurred therein or thereby; and such notification, request and offer of indemnity are hereby declared in every such case, at the option of the Trustee, to be conditions precedent to the execution of the powers and trusts of this Indenture and to any action, or cause of action, for foreclosure, or for the appointment of a receiver, or for any other remedy hereunder at the suit of any holder of bonds or coupons ; it being understood and intended that no one or more holders of bonds and coupons shall have any right in any manner whatever to affect, disturb or prejudice the lien of this Indenture by his or their action, or to enforce any right here¬ under, except in the manner herein provided, but that all proceed¬ ings at law or in equity shall be instituted, had and maintained for the equal benefit of all holders of such outstanding bonds and coupons according to the tenor and terms of the said bonds here¬ under issued and hereby secured. No recourse under any obligation, covenant or agreement of this Indenture, or of any bond or coupon hereby secured, shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director of the Rail¬ road Company or of any successor corporation, either directly or through the Railroad Company, by the enforcement of any assess¬ ment or by any legal or equitable proceeding by virtue of any law, statute or otherwise, it being expressly agreed and understood that 29 this mortgage and the obligations hereby secured are solely corporate obligations, and that no personal liability whatever shall attach to or be incurred by the incorporators, stockholders, officers or directors of the Railroad Company, or of any successor corporation or any or either of them, under or by reason of any of the obligations, cove¬ nants or agreements in this Indenture, or in any of the bonds or coupons hereby secured, and that any and all personal liability, either at common law or in equity, or by law or statute, of every such incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, is hereby expressly waived as a condition of, and consideration for, the execution and issue of this mortgage and such obligations. Except as herein expressly provided to the contrary, no remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the holders of bonds secured hereby is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative, and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. The holders of a majority in amount of all bonds hereby secured and then outstanding, anything in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, shall have the right from time to time to direct and control any and all proceedings which shall have been instituted or which may be instituted for any sale of the premises hereby con¬ veyed or agreed or intended so to be, or for the foreclosure of this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver, or any other proceed¬ ing hereunder. No such action by the Trustee or by such majority shall extend to or be taken to affect any subsequent default or im¬ pair any rights resulting therefrom ; provided, however, that until instructions shall have been given by the bondholders as hereby authorized the Trustee may, in its sound discretion, exercise any right or power hereby conferred. Article 8. Whereas, the fourth article of the mortgage made by the Rail¬ road Company to the Guaranty Trust Company of New York con¬ tains provisions authorizing the Guaranty Trust Company of New York to release such portions of the mortgaged premises appurte- 30 nant to any line of railroad subject to the lien thereof, such as premises acquired or held for the purposes of stations, depots, shops or other buildings or erections, or for the supply of gravel, fuel or other materials which in the judgment of the Railroad Company shall at the time of such release be no longer requisite for use for the purposes for which the same shall have been so acquired or used, nor necessary or expedient to be retained for use in connec¬ tion with said mortgaged premises, and likewise any parts of works, sidings or roadways which may have been thrown out of use and ceased to form part of the railroads operated by the Railroad Com¬ pany at the time of such release, by reason of straightening or alteration of the line of road, or other cause satisfactory to the Guaranty Trust Company, the power so to release given by that ar¬ ticle being designed to be exercised only in case the Railroad Com¬ pany shall sell or exchange for other property the property so to be released because of its being no longer required for the uses or pur¬ poses of its railroad or business, or because the sale thereof or ex¬ change thereof for other property is necessary or advantageous for any cause, it being provided in said article that the proceeds of any such sale shall be invested in the purchase of other property, real or personal, which shall be conveyed by the Railroad Company to the Guaranty Trust Company, subject to all the trusts in said mort¬ gage declared, or in betterments or improvements in some other way for the benefit of the mortgaged premises to the satisfaction of said Guaranty Trust Company. It is one of the conditions of this instrument, and as such it is expressly agreed by both parties here¬ to, that all releases by the Guaranty Trust Company of New York, executed and delivered under the provisions of the said fourth ar¬ ticle of the said mortgage to the Guaranty Trust Company of New York, shall, ipso facto , operate to release the property described in such release from the lien of this mortgage. It is also agreed that the Old Colony Trust Company shall in no manner be charged with the duty of seeing to the substitution of other property of equivalent value for the property so released or to the application of the proceeds of property sold, but the lien of this mortgage shall attach to property substituted for property released in like 3i manner as though such substituted property had been originally included in the property described in this mortgage. It is also agreed that the Old Colony Trust Company may execute and deliver simultaneous releases with the releases executed and deliv¬ ered by the Guaranty Trust Company of New York, and that in such case the execution and delivery of the release by the Guar¬ anty Trust Company of New York shall be a full protection and discharge to the Old Colony Trust Company in case it is required to take any action under this article. The Railroad Company shall have full power, according to its discretion, to dispose of, from time to time, such portion of the machinery, equipment, implements, furniture, materials and sup¬ plies at any time held by it, subject to the lien hereof, as may have become unfit or undesirable for use in connection with said rail¬ ways, replacing the same by new machinery, equipment or imple¬ ments, furniture, materials or supplies, which shall become subject to the operation of this Indenture. Article 9. After the satisfaction and discharge of said mortgage made by the Railroad Company to the Guaranty Trust Company of New York, whenever there shall be furnished to the Trustee a written request of the Railroad Company with a copy of a resolution of its Board of Directors or Executive Committee approving such request, the Trustee from time to time shall release from the lien and operation of this Indenture to persons designated by the Railroad Company any portion of the mortgaged premises appurtenant to any line of railroad subject to the lien hereof, such as premises acquired or held for the purposes of stations, depots, shops or other buildings or erections, or for the supply of gravel, fuel or other materials which, in the judgment of the Railroad Company, shall at the time of such release be no longer requisite for use for the purposes for which the same shall have been so acquired or used, nor necessary or expedient to be retained for use in connection with the said mortgaged premises, and likewise any parts of the works, 32 sidings or roadway which may have been thrown out of use and ceased to form part of the railroads operated by the Railroad Com¬ pany at the time of such release, by reason of straightening or alteration of the line of road, or other cause satisfactory to the Trustee; but the power to release given by this article is designed to be exercised only in case the Railroad Company shall sell or exchange for other property the property so to be released because of its being no longer required for the uses or purposes of its rail¬ road or business, or because the sale thereof or the exchange thereof for other property is necessary or advantageous for any cause, and in order to give a perfect title to the purchaser or purchasers. The proceeds of any such sale and any moneys received upon taking any property subject to this Indenture by the exercise of the power of eminent domain shall be invested in the purchase of other prop¬ erty, real or personal, which shall be conveyed by the Railroad Company to the Trustee, subject to all the trusts hereby declared, or in betterments or improvements in some other way for the bene¬ fit of the mortgaged premises to the satisfaction of the Trustee. When such released premises shall have been thrown out of use or shall have ceased to be required by reason of changes in the line of the railroad or changes of depot grounds, buildings or other accom¬ modations, the substitutes therefor acquired by the Railroad Com¬ pany ipso facto shall become and be subject to the lien of this In¬ denture the same as though specifically mortgaged hereby, and as a condition of such release such premises shall be conveyed to the Trustee by appropriate deeds upon the trusts for the uses of this Indenture. In no event shall any purchaser or purchasers of any property sold or disposed of under any provision of this article be required to see to the application of the purchase money. The certificate of the President or of a Vice-President of the Railroad Company may be received by the Trustee as sufficient evidence of any of the facts mentioned in this article, and shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action taken by it on the faith thereof; but'the Trustee may in its discretion require such further and additional evidence as to it may seem reasonable. 33 Article io. Whereas negotiations have been begun for the sale of the Utah & Nevada Railway (hereinafter more particularly described) and the property pertaining thereto, now therefore the Railroad Com¬ pany may in its sole and uncontrolled discretion convey all that line of railroad (formerly known as the Utah & Nevada Railway) beginning at or near the city of Salt Lake in the county of Salt Lake and State of Utah and extending in a general westerly and southerly direction to a point called Terminus in the county of Tooele and State of Utah, together with the branch extending from Saltair Junction to Saltair on Great Salt Lake in the county of Salt Lake and State of Utah, together with the rights, privileges, franchises and immunities pertaining to the use, operation or enjoy¬ ment thereof, also all stock, bonds and other evidences of the indebtedness of or title to the same, and all legal or equitable liens, claims and demands against said Utah & Nevada Railway Company, together with the rents, issues, profits, tolls and other benefits and advantages of or in any way growing out of said Utah & Nevada Railway, and also all rolling stock and other personal property pertaining to said Utah & Nevada Railway, or the use or enjoyment thereof, free from the lien and operation of this Indent¬ ure, to any corporation, person or persons, and for cash or on credit, or for such other consideration as it may determine, it being under¬ stood and agreed that all the proceeds received for any such convey¬ ance shall, subject to the mortgage or deed of trust securing said thirty-six million, five hundred thousand (36,500,000) dollars of consolidated mortgage bonds aforesaid, become subject to this Indenture to the same extent as if said conveyance had been made prior to the execution of this Indenture and said proceeds had been particularly described herein. Rut no purchaser of the property conveyed under the provisions of this article shall be required to see to the application of the purchase money or other proceeds received for any such conveyance. J 34 Article ii. The Railroad Company covenants that it will from time to time pay and discharge all taxes, assessments and governmental charges lawfully imposed upon the lines of railroad and other premises hereby mortgaged, or upon any part thereof, or upon the income and profits thereof, the lien of which will be prior to the lien hereof, so that the priority of this Indenture shall be fully preserved. And that it will not create or suffer to be hereafter created any mechanics’, laborers’ or other lien or charge whatsoever upon the mortgaged premises or any part thereof, which would be prior to the lien of these presents. Upon default in paying any such taxes, assessments, liens or other charges, the Trustee may in its discretion, without impairment of or prejudice to any other of its rights under this Indenture by reason of such default, itself take up or pay the same and have a lien upon the mortgaged premises for its advances for that purpose, with interest. The Railroad Company covenants that it will execute and deliver any and all such further assurances or conveyances as the Trustee may reasonably direct or require for the purpose of better assuring, conveying and confirming unto the Trustee all and singular the hereditaments and premises, estates and property hereby conveyed or intended so to be, or as the Trustee shall reasonably require for better effectuating and carrying out the provisions, objects and pur¬ poses of this Indenture, and for securing payment of the principal and interest of the bonds intended to be hereby secured. Article 12. Any request in writing or other instrument required by this In¬ denture to be signed and executed by bondholders may be in any number of concurrent instruments of similar tenor and date, and may be signed or executed by such bondholders in person or by attorney in fact. Proof of the execution of any such request or other instrument, and of the holding by any person of any of said bonds, shall (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture, if made in the following manner: 35 The fact and date of the execution by any person of any such request or other instrument may be proved by the certificate of any notary public, or other officer authorized to take acknowledgments of deeds to be recorded in Massachusetts, including any United States consul, or vice or deputy consul, that the person signing such request or other instrument acknowledged to him the execution thereof, or by an affidavit of a witness of such execution. • • The amounts and issue numbers of bonds held by any person executing any such request or other instrument as the holder of bonds, and the date of his holding the same, may be proved by a certificate in writing executed by any trust company, bank, bankers or other depositary (wherever situated) whose certificate shall be deemed by the Trustee to be satisfactory, showing that such person had on deposit with such depositary the bonds described in such certificate at the date therein mentioned. The ownership of regis¬ tered coupon bonds shall be proved by the registers of such bonds as provided in Article 2 hereof. Such proof shall be conclusive in favor of the Trustee with regard to any action taken by it under such request or other instrument. Article 13. Until default shall be made in the due and punctual payment of some principal or some interest of the bonds hereby secured as and when the same shall be due and payable ; or until default shall be made in the performance or observance by the Railroad Company of some covenant or condition of this Indenture, and such default shall have continued for the period of six months after the Trustee shall have made written demand upon the Railroad Company for the per¬ formance of such covenant or condition ; or until a receiver shall have been appointed,— the Railroad Company, its successors or assigns, shall be entitled to retain actual possession of all and every the premises hereby mortgaged and to exercise the rights and fran¬ chises appertaining thereto ; and to receive the earnings, income, rents, issues and profits thereof, and to manage, operate, collect, receive, use and enjoy the same. 36 Article 14. If the Railroad Company shall well and truly pay or cause to be paid to the holders of the said mortgaged bonds, intended to be secured hereby, and every of them, the principal sums of money therein mentioned, according to the true intent and meaning thereof, with interest thereon, at the times and in the manner herein pro¬ vided, and according to the true intent and meaning of these presents, and until such payment shall well and truly perform all covenants on its part to be performed at the times and in the man¬ ner herein* provided, then and from thenceforth this instrument and the estate hereby granted shall cease and determine and be utterly void, and the right and title to the premises and property hereby conveyed shall revert to and revest in said party of the first part, its successors and assigns, without any acknowledgment of satisfaction, reconveyance, re-entry, or other acts. Article 15. The Trustee shall, at any time during the continuance of this In¬ denture and the life of the bonds secured hereby, at the request in writing of the holders of one-fifth part of said bonds at the-time out¬ standing, call a meeting of all of the holders of said bonds. Any meeting called pursuant to such request, and all meetings of the bondholders hereunder called by the Trustee of its own motion in obedience to any of the provisions of these presents, shall be con¬ vened at such time as the Trustee shall think reasonable, by pub¬ lishing in one or more newspapers in each of the cities of New York and Boston, not less than fourteen, nor more than twenty-one, days before the holding of any such meeting, and on the five secular days succeeding the day of such first publication, a notice to the holders of the said bonds specifying the place, the day and the hour of such meeting, and that such meeting will be held in pursuance of the pro¬ visions of this Indenture or at the request of a certain number of the bondholders hereunder, as the case may be. And such meeting 37 may be adjourned from time to time, and the Trustee shall give such notice (if any) of any such adjourned meeting as it shall think reasonable in the circumstances. And at any such meeting every holder of any of the said bonds secured hereby shall be entitled to one vote for every five hundred (500) dollars par value of bonds so held by him, which vote may be given either in person or by proxy duly appointed in writing, and under such restrictions and upon fur¬ nishing such proof of ownership as is mentioned, set forth and at length provided for in Article 12 of this Indenture. And a certifi¬ cate of a committee or association representing holders of bonds hereunder shall likewise be accepted by the Trustee and treated as prescribed by the provisions of said Article 12 hereof, and a statement contained in any such certificate that the holders of the bonds represented by such committee or association desire to vote in the manner in such certificate specified on any question before such meeting shall be conclusive, and the votes of all of such bond¬ holders shall thereupon be counted as having been cast in the manner directed in such certificate. And in all questions and con¬ troversies concerning any of the proceedings at such meeting a certificate signed or purporting to be signed by the Chairman and Clerk of any such meeting shall be evidence of the matters stated in such certificate relating to such proceedings. And any person act¬ ing on the faith of any certificate made by such Chairman or Clerk shall not be bound to ascertain or make any inquiry as to any of the said matters therein stated. Article 16. The Trustee shall not be required to take any step in the execu¬ tion of the trusts hereby created, or in the enforcement of its rights and powers hereunder, if in its opinion such action will be likely to involve it in expense or liability, unless one or more of said bondholders shall, as often as required by the Trustee, give it reasonable indemnity against the same, anything herein con¬ tained to the contrary notwithstanding; and the Trustee and its agents, attorneys and counsel shall be entitled to a reasonable com- ) 38 pensation for all services rendered in connection with the trust hereby created or in pursuance of the provision of this Indenture. The Railroad Company agrees to pay to the Trustee such compen¬ sation, and also all expenses reasonably incurred by the Trustee hereunder; and the Trustee shall have a lien therefor upon the mort¬ gaged property and the proceeds thereof. It is further understood and agreed that the Trustee shall not be required to take notice or be deemed to have notice of any de¬ fault of the Railroad Company, either in the payment of any inter¬ est or principal of any of the bonds secured hereby or in the performance of, or compliance with, any covenant or condition of this Indenture, unless the Trustee shall have been specifically notified in writing of such default. The Trustee shall not be required to see to the filing or recording of this Indenture ; but the Railroad Com¬ pany covenants that it will cause the same to be duly recorded as a mortgage of real estate. That the representations in this mortgage and in the bonds secured hereby are those of the Railroad Company and in no sense those of the Trustee, who shall be under no responsibility therefor. That no Trustee hereunder shall in any event have any duty or responsibility as to the validity hereof, or security hereby afforded, nor as to the execution, acknowledgment, recording or renewal hereof. It is further understood and agreed by and between the parties hereto that the Trustee shall not be answerable for any default or miscarriage of any agent or attorney by it appointed hereunder, if such agent was selected with reasonable care, nor for any error or mistake of judgment made by it in good faith, but shall only be liable for its own wilful misconduct or gross negligence in the exe¬ cution of said trusts. It is further understood and agreed that the Trustee shall be under no obligation to seek, or to institute proceedings to procure, the delivery to it of any bonds, certificates of stock or other secu¬ rities which the Railroad Company has hereby assigned or agreed to assign to the Trustee hereunder; nor shall the Trustee be under any obligation to give notice of this mortgage to the maker of any chose in action, or party liable, upon any claim hereby mortgaged or assigned. 39 The Trustee or any Trustee hereafter appointed hereunder may resign, and thereby become discharged from the trusts hereby cre¬ ated, by notice in writing to be given to the Railroad Company, and published one or more times in two newspapers, one in the city of Boston and one in the city of New York, at least two months before such resignation shall take effect; but such resignation shall take effect immediately upon the appointment of a new Trustee here¬ under, if such new Trustee shall be appointed before the time limited by such notice. In case at any time hereafter the said Trustee or any Trustee hereafter appointed shall resign, be removed, be dissolved or other¬ wise become incapable of acting, a successor may be appointed by the holders of a majority in amount of the bonds secured hereby then outstanding, by an instrument or concurrent instruments signed by said bondholders or their attorneys in fact duly author¬ ized ; provided, nevertheless, and it is hereby agreed and declared, that in case there shall at any time be a vacancy in the office of Trustee hereunder the Railroad Company may, by an instrument executed by order of its Board of Directors, appoint a Trustee to act until a new Trustee shall be appointed by the bondholders, but any new Trustee appointed by the bondholders shall immediately and without further act supersede any Trustee appointed by the Railroad Company. Any new Trustee so appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowl¬ edge and deliver to the Trustee last in office an instrument accept¬ ing such appointment hereunder, and thereupon such new Trustee shall become vested with all the property, rights, duties and trusts of a Trustee hereunder, with like effect as if named as Trustee herein, and without any further act, deed or conveyance; but the Trustee ceasing to act shall, nevertheless, on the written request of the new Trustee, execute an instrument transferring to such new Trustee upon the trust herein expressed all the property, privileges and rights hereunder of the Trustee so resigning or removed. The old Trustee shall thereupon be discharged from further liability hereunder. It is understood and agreed that the word “Trustee,” as used in this instrument, shall be held and construed to mean the party of the second part or its successor or successors for the time being in the trust hereby created. Article 17. The Trustee, party of the second part hereto, hereby accepts the trusts in this Indenture declared and provided.
