“Title Evidence” means, with respect to any real property:

 

A.                                    an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Company, or the owner-lessor of the property in the case of real property described in paragraph C of the definition of “Property Additions,” has such title, whether fairly deducible of record or based upon prescriptive rights, as in the opinion of counsel, based upon information from the Company as to the nature and duration of the use of such property, is satisfactory for the use thereof in connection with the operations of the Company, and counsel, in giving such opinion, may disregard any irregularity or deficiency in the record evidence of title which, in the opinion of such counsel, can be cured by proceedings within the power of the Company or, based upon information from the Company as to the nature and duration of the use of such property, does not substantially impair the usefulness of such property for the purpose for which the Company intends or expects to use such property, and may base such opinion upon his own investigation or upon affidavits, certificates, abstracts of title, statements or investigations made by Persons in whom such counsel has confidence or upon certificates or guaranties of title or policies of title insurance in which he has confidence, and, without limiting the foregoing, counsel may rely solely upon an Officers’ Certificate as to matters regarding the use of such property in the operations of the Company or the usefulness of such property for the purpose for which the Company intends or expects to use such property; or

 

B.                                    a mortgagee’s policy of title insurance (or a commitment to issue a mortgagee’s policy of title insurance containing only standard conditions to issuance or such other conditions to issuance as are satisfactory to the Trustee) in the amount of the Cost to the Company of the land on the date of acquisition and included in Property Additions, issued in favor of the Trustee by an entity authorized to insure title in the state in which the real property is located, showing the Company (or such owner-lessor) as the owner of the subject property and insuring the lien of this Indenture;

 

and with respect to any personal property or any other property that may constitute fixtures or real property solely as a consequence of being affixed to or erected on either (i) real property that was owned by the Company or subject to easements or rights of way in favor of the Company prior to the Cut-Off Date or

 

11











 

(ii) real property that was acquired by the Company after the Cut-Off Date and as to which the Company has previously provided Title Evidence to the Trustee as described in either paragraph A or B above, an Officers’ Certificate stating that the Company owns such personal property, fixtures or real property and that the Company continues to have title satisfactory for the use thereof in connection with the operations of the Company to the real property referred to in clause (i) or (ii) above, as the case may be; and, with respect to any property described in paragraph C of the definition of “Property Additions,” an Officers’ Certificate stating that the Company has a valid leasehold interest in, and is possessed of, such property and with respect to any leasehold interest meeting the requirements in paragraph (C) of the definition of “Property Additions,” an Officers’ Certificate stating that the lease complies with the requirements of clauses (i) and (ii) of paragraph (C).

Section 3.9     Amendment of Section 15.1 of the Original Indenture.  The first two paragraphs of Section 15.1 of the Original Indenture are hereby amended in their entirety, such that the first two paragraphs of Section 15.1, as amended, will read in their entirety as follows:

Any Stock and certificates representing the same and any obligations and indebtedness and evidences thereof and any other securities which are at the time deposited with the Trustee or required to be deposited and pledged with the Trustee, except Undesignated Qualifying Securities and Designated Qualifying Securities, are herein sometimes collectively called the “Pledged Securities.”

 

As and when any Pledged Securities shall come into the possession of the Company or under its control, the Company shall forthwith deposit and pledge the same with the Trustee, together with such proper instruments of assignment and transfer as the Trustee may reasonably require, which shall include express authority to the Trustee to vote any Stock included therein to the extent herein provided or permitted and to cause such authority to be recorded in the entry of transfer of such Stock on the books of the entity issuing the same.

 

Section 3.10     Amendment of Section 15.3 of the Original Indenture.  Section 15.3 of the Original Indenture is hereby amended in its entirety, such that Section 15.3, as amended, will read in its entirety as follows:

 

Section 15.3  Right of Trustee to Preserve Issuers; Directors’ Qualifying Shares.

 

The Trustee may do whatever in its judgment may be necessary for the purpose of preserving or extending the legal existence of any entity whose Stock is included in the Pledged Securities, but (subject to Section 9.1) it shall be under no duty to take any action in respect thereof. Upon Company Request stating that the Company has no shares for the purpose under its control other than shares held hereunder, the Trustee shall transfer or permit the Company to transfer as many shares of stock as may be necessary to qualify the requisite number of persons to act as directors of or in any other official relation to the corporation issuing such shares; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no such transfer of the stock of any Pledged Subsidiary shall be made which would change the status of the issuing corporation as a Pledged Subsidiary. In every such case the Trustee may make such arrangements as it shall deem necessary for the protection of the trust hereunder in respect of the shares so transferred. While such shares remain so transferred they shall not be deemed to be Pledged Securities, but when such shares are no longer needed for such qualification purposes they shall immediately be redeposited and repledged and thereupon again become Pledged Securities.
