			If this bond or any portion hereof is called for redemption and payment thereof is duly provided for as specified in the Indenture, interest shall cease to accrue hereon or on such portion, as the case may be, from and after the date fixed for redemption.
		

		
			The principal hereof may be declared or may become due prior to its maturity date on the conditions, in the manner and with the effect set forth in the Indenture upon the happening of an event of default, as in the Indenture provided; subject, however, to the right, under certain circumstances, of the holders and registered owners of a majority in principal amount of the bonds outstanding to annul such declaration.

			The Company and the Trustee may deem and treat the registered owner of this bond as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal hereof and the interest hereon, and for all other purposes, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.
		

		
			No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or interest on this bond or for any claim based hereon or otherwise in respect hereof or of the Indenture or of any indenture supplemental thereto against any incorporator or any past, present or future stockholder, officer or director of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation, as such, either directly or through the Company, or through any such predecessor or successor corporation or through any receiver or trustee in bankruptcy, by virtue of any constitutional provision, statute or rule of law or equity, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issue hereof, expressly waived and released by every holder or registered owner hereof, as more fully provided in the Indenture.
		

		
			This bond shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto, or become valid or obligatory for any purpose, until The Pennsylvania Company for Insurances on Lives and Granting Annuities, as Trustee under the Indenture, or a successor trustee thereunder, shall have signed the certificate of authentication endorsed hereon.

Upon any such deposit being made, said indebtedness shall, for all purposes of this Indenture except the application of said deposit as hereinafter provided in this paragraph, be deemed to have been paid and shall not be deemed to be outstanding; provided, that in case of deposit to effect a redemption a sufficient call for such redemption, or provision satisfactory to the Trustee for making such call, shall first be made. Any such money so deposited shall be applied by the depositee with whom it shall have been deposited from time to time to the payment of the principal and interest or to the redemption of such indebtedness, or be repaid to the Company proportionately as such indebtedness shall be paid or reduced or ascertained by judicial determination or otherwise to be in whole or in part invalid, upon the filing with the depositee of an Officers’ Certificate, as herein defined, to the effect that such Prepaid Lien has been paid or reduced or ascertained by judicial determination or otherwise to be in whole or in part invalid and specifying the amount of payment or reduction or the extent of the invalidity, as the case may be, accompanied by a concurring Opinion of Counsel.

			Any such redemption of the bonds of the 31⁄4% Series due 1971 shall be effected in accordance with the provisions of Article V of this Indenture.
		

		
			The holder or registered owners of any coupon bond or bonds of the 31⁄4% Series due 1971 may, at his option, surrender the same, with all unmatured coupons attached, in exchange for a registered bond or bonds without coupons of the 31⁄4% Series due 1971, of an equal aggregate principal amount.
		

		
			The owner of any registered bond or bonds without coupons of the 31⁄4% Series due 1971 may, at his option surrender the same in exchange for an equal aggregate principal amount of registered bonds without coupons of the 31⁄4% Series due 1971, in authorized denominations, or of coupon bonds of the 31⁄4% Series due 1971, in the denomination of $1000 each, with all coupons attached maturing after the last interest payment date to which interest has been paid on the registered bond or bonds so surrendered, or of both such registered bonds without coupons and coupon bonds.
		

		
			Every such exchange of bonds shall be effected in accordance with the applicable provisions of Sections 7, 8 and 9 of this Article.
		

		
			The text of the coupon bonds of the 31⁄4% Series due 1971 and the coupons appertaining thereto and of the registered bonds without coupons of said series and of the certificate of the Trustee upon such bonds shall be, respectively, substantially of the tenor and effect hereinbefore recited with respect thereto.
		

		
			Section 4.  The bonds and coupons of series other than the 31⁄4% Series due 1971, and the Trustee’s certificate thereon, shall be substantially in the forms hereinbefore recited, with such modifications, omissions, or additions permitted by or not inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture as may be determined by Resolution and embodied in an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto. The bonds of each series shall be distinguished from the bonds of each other series in such manner as may be determined by such resolution. All bonds of the same 
		

		 

		

			22

		

 

		

			 

		

		series shall be identical in tenor except as to the denominations thereof and except variations appropriate for registered bonds without coupons.
		

		
			The bonds of each series other than the first shall be dated and mature on such dates; shall bear interest at such rate or rates, payable in such installments and on such dates; shall be payable as to principal, premium and interest at such place or places, and in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts; shall be of such denominations; shall have such tax free and tax refund provisions; sinking, improvement, amortization or other analogous fund requirements; redemption provisions; conversion privileges; provisions for exchange, registry and transfer; limitations upon the maximum amount issuable; and such other terms and provisions permitted by or not inconsistent with this Indenture as may be determined by Resolution and expressed in the bonds and in an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto.
		

		
			The bonds and coupons of series other than the first may have inscribed thereon such descriptive words, numbers, marks of identification, designations, legends and endorsements as may be required to comply with the rules of any exchange or to conform to usage in respect thereof, or as consistently with the provisions hereof, may be determined by Resolution.
		

		
			Before any bonds of any series other than the first, shall be authenticated and delivered by the Trustee under this Indenture, the Company and the Trustee shall execute and deliver and the Company shall cause to be recorded an indenture supplemental hereto, authorized by Resolution, creating or authorizing such series.
		

		
			Section 5.  All coupon bonds of any one series shall bear the same date. Except as provided in Section 11 of this Article, every registered bond without coupons shall be dated as of the date of its issue (except that if any such registered bond shall be issued on any interest payment date it shall be dated as of the day next following such interest payment date). Every registered bond without coupons shall bear interest from the interest payment date next preceding the date of such bond (or, if the date of such bond is prior to the first interest payment date for the bonds of such series, then from the date of the coupon bonds of such series); provided, however, that, upon any transfer or exchange of registered bonds without coupons, if the Company at the time shall be in default in the payment of interest on the registered bond or bonds surrendered on such transfer or exchange, the Trustee shall endorse upon any registered bond or bonds issued upon such transfer or exchange a legend to the effect that the same bear interest from a specified date, which date shall be the last interest payment date to which interest has been paid on the registered bond or bonds so surrendered.
		

		
			Section 6.  All bonds issued hereunder shall, from time to time, be executed on behalf of the Company by its President or a Vice President; and its corporate seal (which may be in facsimile if permitted by law) shall be thereunto affixed (or impressed or engraved, if in facsimile) and attested by its Secretary or an Assistant Secretary. The coupons shall bear the facsimile signature of the present or any future Treasurer of the Company. In case any of the officers who shall have signed any bonds or attested the seal thereon or whose facsimile signature appears on any coupon shall cease to be such officers of the Company before the bonds so signed and sealed shall have been actually authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company, such bonds nevertheless may be authenticated, delivered and issued with 
		

		 

		

			23

		

 

		

			 

		

		the same force and effect as though the person or persons who signed such bonds and attested the seal thereon or whose facsimile signature appears on any coupon had not ceased to be such officer or officers of the Company. Before authenticating and delivering any coupon bonds the Trustee shall cut off, cancel and deliver to the Company all matured coupons thereto attached, except as otherwise provided in Section 11 of this Article.
		

		
			Section 7.  Whenever any coupon or registered bond or bonds of any series exchangeable by the terms thereof or of this Indenture or of an indenture supplemental hereto, together with all unmatured coupons thereto appertaining, shall be surrendered for exchange for a bond or bonds secured hereby (either coupon or registered) for which such surrendered bond or bonds shall be exchangeable as aforesaid, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee authenticate, and it or the Company shall deliver in exchange therefor a bond or bonds secured hereby (either coupon or registered) for the same aggregate principal amount in accordance with the request of the holder thereof.
		

		
			Any registered bond and any coupon bond registered as to principal surrendered for exchange under the provisions of this paragraph, shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form approved by the Trustee, duly executed by the registered owner or his attorney duly authorized in writing.
		

		
			No holder of any bond shall be entitled to require the exchange thereof for a bond or bonds secured hereby, except as expressly provided by the terms of the bonds to be so exchanged or by the terms of this Indenture, or of an indenture supplemental hereto. All bonds so surrendered for exchange and the coupons appertaining thereto shall be cancelled by the Trustee and delivered to the Company.
		

		
			Section 8.  The Company shall keep or cause to be kept at the principal office of the Trustee in the City of Philadelphia books for the registration and transfer of bonds of all series and books for the registration and transfer of bonds of series other than bonds of the 31⁄4% Series due 1971 at such office or offices, if any, in addition to the principal office of the Trustee as may be determined by Resolution and expressed in the bonds and in an indenture supplemental hereto. Upon presentation of any bond for registration or transfer at the office or one of the offices designated therefor, the Company shall, under such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, register or transfer or cause to be registered or transferred therein any bond entitled to be so registered or transferred.
		

		
			Any coupon bond may be registered as to principal only on the said books of the Company at the proper office or offices, and such registry noted upon the bond, and after such registration no transfer shall be valid unless made on said books by the registered owner in person or by his attorney, duly authorized, and similarly noted on the bond. Upon presentation to the Company at the proper office or offices of any such bond registered as to principal, accompanied by a written instrument of transfer, in a form approved by the Trustee, duly executed by the registered owner in person or by his attorney duly authorized in writing, such bond shall be transferred upon such books. The registered owner of any such bond registered as to principal shall also have the right to cause the same to be registered as payable to bearer, in which case transferability by delivery shall be restored, but any such bond registered as payable to bearer may be registered again in the name of the holder with the same effect as the first 
		

		 

		

			24

		

 

		

			 

		

		registration thereof. Successive registrations and transfers as aforesaid may be made from time to time as desired. Each registration of a coupon bond shall be noted thereon by one of the Company’s agents. Registration of any of the coupon bonds as to principal shall not affect the negotiability of the coupons appertaining to such bonds, but every such coupon shall continue to pass by delivery and shall remain payable to bearer.
		

		
			All registered bonds without coupons shall be registered on the books of the Company kept at the office or offices designated for the registration and transfer thereof. Whenever the registered owner of any registered bond without coupons shall surrender the same to the Company at an office designated for transfer thereof, together with a written instrument of transfer in form approved by the Trustee, duly executed by said registered owner in person or by his attorney duly authorized in writing, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate, and the Trustee or the Company shall deliver in exchange therefor a new registered bond or bonds without coupons of the same series and of the same aggregate principal amount, and no transfer of a registered bond without coupons shall be valid unless made as above provided. All bonds so surrendered shall be cancelled by the Trustee and delivered to the Company.
		

		
			Section 9.  For any transfer or exchange of bonds whatsoever under any of the foregoing provisions of this Article, the Company at its option may require the payment to it of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any stamp tax or other governmental charge, and in addition thereto of a further sum not exceeding Two Dollars ($2.00) for each new bond, if any, issued upon such transfer or exchange. The Company shall not be required to make exchange or transfer of any bond under the provisions of this Article after the first notice of redemption of such bond, or to transfer or exchange registered bonds without coupons as provided in this Article for a period of ten (10) days next preceding any interest date, anything in such bond to the contrary notwithstanding.
		

		
			Section 10.  Until definitive bonds of any series shall be prepared, the Company may execute and upon the request of the Company, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in lieu of such definitive bonds and subject to the same provisions, limitations and conditions, one or more printed or typewritten temporary bonds of any denomination or denominations substantially of the tenor of the definitive bonds, with or without coupons, and with appropriate omissions, modifications or additions, as may be necessary. Pending the preparation of the definitive bonds, such temporary bonds may, at the option of the Company, be exchangeable for other temporary bonds of the same aggregate principal amount, whether of the same or different denominations. Temporary bonds surrendered for exchange shall be accompanied by all unmatured coupons appertaining thereto and if registered shall be accompanied by written instruments of transfer in form approved by the Trustee, duly executed by the registered owner in person or by his attorney duly authorized in writing.
		

		
			The Company shall, without unnecessary delay and at its own expense, prepare, execute and deliver to the Trustee, and thereupon, upon the presentation and surrender of any such temporary bond or bonds, with all unmatured coupons, if any, appertaining thereto, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor, definitive bonds of the same series and maturity, for the same aggregate principal amount as, and in the authorized denominations indicated by, the holders or registered owners of the temporary bond or bonds so surrendered. 
		

		 

		

			25

		

 

		

			 

		

		Until so exchanged, the temporary bonds shall be entitled to the lien and benefit of this Indenture, and interest, when and as payable, shall be paid, and such payment noted thereon, if such temporary bonds shall have been issued without coupons; if such temporary bonds shall have been issued with coupons, interest shall be paid on presentation and surrender of such coupons as they mature.
		

		
			All temporary bonds so surrendered, whether in exchange for definitive bonds or for other temporary bonds, shall be cancelled and cremated by the Trustee.
		

		
			Section 11.  Upon receipt by the Company and the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to them of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any bond outstanding hereunder, and upon receipt of indemnity satisfactory to them, and upon surrender and cancellation of such bond if mutilated, the Company may execute, and the Trustee may, upon request of the Company, authenticate and deliver a new bond of like tenor and series, and bearing the same coupons, if any, in lieu of such lost, destroyed or mutilated bond. The applicant for such substitute bond shall pay all expenses incident to the issue of a new bond and shall comply with such other reasonable regulations as the Company or the Trustee may prescribe.
		

		
			Section 12.  No bond shall be secured hereby or entitled to the benefit hereof, or shall be or become valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless there shall be endorsed thereon a certificate, substantially in such form, duly executed by the Trustee; and such certificate of the Trustee upon any bond shall be conclusive evidence and the only competent evidence that such bond has been duly issued hereunder and that the holder or registered owner thereof is entitled to the benefit of the trust and lien hereby created.
		

		
			Article III.
Initial Authentication and Delivery of Bonds.
		

		
			Section 1.  The initial issue of bonds under this Indenture shall be Fifteen million, nine hundred thousand dollars ($15,900,000) principal amount of bonds of the 31⁄4% Series due 1971. At any time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, and upon delivery to the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel stating in substance that this Indenture has been recorded, registered and filed in such manner and in such places as may be required by law in order to establish, preserve and protect the lien hereof, said bonds of the 31⁄4% Series due 1971 may be executed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee, and the Trustee shall thereupon authenticate and deliver said bonds to or upon the written order of the President or any Vice President of the Company.
		

		
			Article IV.
Authentication and Delivery of Additional Bonds.
		

		
			Section 1.  This Indenture creates a continuing lien to secure the full and final payment of the principal of and any premium which may be due and payable on and the interest on all bonds which may, from time to time, be executed, authenticated and delivered hereunder. The aggregate principal amount of bonds which may be so executed, authenticated and delivered 
		

		 

		

			26

			Section 3.  In the event that the Company shall give notice of its intention to redeem any of the bonds, the Company covenants that it will on or before the redemption date specified in such notice, deposit with the Trustee a sum of money sufficient to redeem the same.

All moneys deposited by the Company with the Trustee under the provisions of this Article shall be held in trust for account of the holders of the bonds called for redemption, and shall be paid to them respectively, upon presentation and surrender of said bonds, with all unmatured coupons appertaining thereto; and after such redemption date if the moneys for the redemption of said bonds shall have been deposited as aforesaid such bonds shall cease to bear interest, and shall cease to be entitled to the lien of this Indenture and of all indentures supplemental hereto and the coupons for interest maturing subsequent to that date shall be void.

		necessary machinery and equipment and that it will from time to time make all needful and proper repairs, renewals, replacements, substitutions and alterations, so that the efficiency of the mortgaged property and every part thereof shall at no time become or be impaired, and so that the business may at all times be conducted in a good and businesslike manner; and that subject to the provisions of Article XII, it will at all times maintain its corporate existence and right to carry on business and duly procure all renewals and extensions thereof, and, subject to the provisions hereof, will diligently maintain, preserve and renew or obtain all rights, powers, privileges and franchises now or hereafter necessary or desirable for the proper conduct of its business.
		

		
			Section 8.  That it will cause the property subject to the lien of this Indenture to be insured and kept insured in good and solvent companies against loss or damage by fire or other casualty to the extent that such property is usually insured by companies similarly situated and operating like properties, any loss (except as to property specifically excepted from the lien hereof and except as to any particular loss not exceeding $10,000 in amount) to be made payable to the Trustee as its interest may appear; or that it will, in lieu of or supplementing such insurance in whole or in part, establish and maintain an adequate insurance reserve fund in an amount customary in the practice of other companies similarly situated and maintaining similar funds, to consist of deposited cash and investments to be specifically set apart and maintained out of the Company’s earnings or surplus and to be invested, reinvested, held and applied only for making good losses by fire or other casualty to the extent that such losses are insured by means of such fund. Before such fund shall be deemed to be a substitute for an equivalent amount of insurance in good and solvent companies, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee an Engineer’s Certificate stating that the fund so establish is adequate and in an amount customary in the practice of other companies similarly situated and maintaining similar funds, for the amount of insurance for which the same is to be substituted. The amount chargeable against such insurance reserve fund upon the happening of any loss shall be paid over at once to the Trustee in cash.
		

		
			In case of any loss covered by any policy of insurance, any appraisement or adjustment of such loss which may be agreed upon between the Company and any insuring company shall be accepted by the Trustee and the Trustee shall in no way be liable for the adjustment of such loss or for the collection of any insurance monies.
		

		
			That it will furnish to the Trustee on or before March 1 in each year a statement of the President or a Vice President of the Company as to the amount and character of the insurance in force listing the companies issuing policies of insurance on the said property, setting forth the character and amount of each policy, and in case an insurance reserve fund has been established, setting forth the amount of insurance for which the same is substituted, and the amount of such fund with a detailed statement of the cash on deposit and investments held therein; and all resolutions authorizing the establishment and maintenance of such insurance reserve fund shall be furnished the Trustee.

			That it will furnish upon request of the Trustee from time to time an “Engineer’s Certificate” stating that he has examined the property of the Company of the character usually insured as aforesaid, and stating what, in his opinion, would be a usual amount of insurance 
		

		 

		

			41

		

 

		

			 

		

		thereon, and whether any insurance reserve fund established as above permitted is adequate, and in an amount customary in the practice of other companies similarly situated and maintaining similar funds, for the amount of insurance for which the same is substituted. The Trustee shall be under no duty to demand any such certificate except upon the request in writing of the holders of at least twenty-five per cent. (25%) in principal amount of the outstanding bonds.
		

		
			The Company further covenants and agrees that all insurance moneys received by the Company on account of any loss not exceeding Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) in amount, and not required to be paid to the Trustee, shall be applied forthwith to the rebuilding, renewal or replacement of the property destroyed or damaged or for other Permanent Additions.
		

		
			Section 9.  That it will cause this Indenture and all indentures and instruments supplemental hereto to be kept recorded, registered and filed in such manner and to such extent as may be required or permitted by law and in such places as may be required by law in order fully to preserve and protect the security of the bondholders and all rights of the Trustee hereunder; and that it will furnish to the Trustee (a) promptly after the execution and delivery of this Indenture and of each indenture supplemental hereto, an Opinion of Counsel stating either that in the opinion of the signer this Indenture and all indentures supplemental hereto have been properly recorded, registered and filed so as to make effective the lien to be created thereby, and reciting the details of such action, or stating that in the opinion of the signer no such action is necessary to make such lien effective; and (b) on or before March 1 in each year after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, an Opinion of Counsel either stating that in the opinion of the signer such action has been taken with respect to the recording, registration, filing, re-recording, re-registration and re-filing of this Indenture and of each indenture supplemental hereto as is necessary to maintain the lien thereof, and reciting the details of such action or stating that in the opinion of the signer no such action is necessary to maintain such lien.
		

		
			Section 10.  That if it shall fail to perform any of the covenants contained in Sections 7, 8, and 9 of this Article, the Trustee may make advances to perform the same in its behalf, and all sums so advanced shall be at once repayable by the Company and shall bear interest at the legal rate of interest then in effect in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania from the date of advance until paid, and shall have a lien upon the trust estate prior to the lien of the indebtedness evidenced by the bonds and coupons and claims for interest secured hereby; but no such advance shall relieve the Company of any default hereunder.
		

		
			The Trustee shall not be required to make any such advances except upon the written request of holders of not less than twenty-five per cent. (25%) in principal amount of the bonds then outstanding hereunder, and upon being furnished with the necessary funds for that purpose.

That it will duly and punctually perform all the conditions and obligations on it imposed by the terms of any mortgage or trust indenture existing immediately prior to the time of acquisition, or created simultaneously with such acquisition, upon property acquired subsequent to December 31, 1940, and will duly and punctually pay the principal of and interest on all bonds or other obligations secured by any such mortgage or trust indenture within the period of grace, if any, specified therein, to such an extent as shall be necessary to keep the security afforded by this Indenture substantially unimpaired and that it will not permit any default under any such mortgage or trust indenture to occur and continue for the period of grace, if any, specified therein, if thereby the security afforded by this Indenture be materially impaired or endangered.

			(5)Any money or obligations or other personal property capable of manual delivery not otherwise subjected to the lien of this Indenture stated in the Engineer’s Certificate provided for in Paragraph 2 of this Section, to be the consideration for the property, the release of which is requested; provided that in case such money or obligations or other personal property are received in consideration of released property, which property has been purchased, constructed, or otherwise acquired by the Company subsequent to December 31, 1940, and does not consist of Permanent Additions and which property is released from the lien of any mortgage or trust indenture prior to the lien hereof, then such money, obligations or other personal property may be delivered to or deposited with the Trustee of such prior mortgage or trust indenture;
		

		
			(6)An Opinion of Counsel, as herein defined, to the effect that (a) any obligations included in the consideration for the property, the release of which is requested are, in his or their opinion, valid obligations, (b) that any purchase money mortgage securing the same is a first lien upon the property to be released subject only to Permitted Liens, (c) that such purchase money mortgage does not by its terms provide for or permit to be issued thereunder or secured thereby any obligations other than the obligations included in the consideration for such release, (d) stating also, in case the Trustee is requested to release any franchise, that such release will not impair the right of the Company to operate any of its remaining properties and (e) that all conditions precedent to the release of such property have been complied with.

			Section 5.  Any new property acquired by exchange or purchase to take the place of any property released or otherwise disposed of under any provision of this Article shall forthwith and without further conveyance become subject to the lien of and be covered by this Indenture as a part of the mortgaged property; but the Company covenants that if so requested by the Trustee it will convey the same, or cause the same to be conveyed, to the Trustee by appropriate instruments of conveyance upon the trusts and for the purposes of this Indenture.
		

		
			Section 6.  In the event that any governmental body or governmental agency shall at any time acquire all or any part of the property of the Company which is subject to the lien of this Indenture, by the exercise of the power of eminent domain or in the exercise of any right reserved to purchase the same, the Trustee shall release the property so taken or purchased, upon being furnished with an Opinion of Counsel, as herein defined, to the effect that such property has been taken by exercise of the power of eminent domain or in the exercise of any right reserved to purchase such property. The award or consideration received for such property shall be deposited with the Trustee; provided that in case any of the mortgaged and pledged property so taken or purchased consists of property which has been purchased, constructed or otherwise acquired by the Company subsequent to December 31, 1940, and does not consist of Permanent Additions and is released from the lien of any mortgage or trust indenture prior to the lien hereof, 
		

		 

		

			49

		

 

		

			 

		

		other than Permitted Liens, then the award or consideration for such property may be delivered to or deposited with the Trustee of such prior mortgage or trust indenture, and in that event there shall be delivered to the Trustee the certificate of the Trustee of such prior mortgage or trust indenture to the effect that it has received such award or consideration, or a part thereof, as the case may be, and has been irrevocably authorized by the Company to pay over to the Trustee any balance of such award or consideration remaining after the discharge of such prior mortgage or trust indenture.

The powers conferred by this Section upon a receiver or any trustee may be exercised by such receiver or trustee notwithstanding that any one or more of the events of defaults specified in Section 1 of Article XI hereof shall have happened and be continuing. 
		

		
			Section 8.  No purchaser in good faith of property purporting to have been released hereunder shall be bound to ascertain the authority of the Trustee to execute the release, or to inquire as to any facts required by the provisions hereof for the exercise of such authority; nor shall any purchaser or grantee of any property or rights sold, granted, exchanged or otherwise disposed of by the Company and released by the Trustee, if such release is required by the provisions hereof, be under obligation to ascertain or inquire into the authority of the Company to make any such sale, grant, exchange or other disposition, or to see to the application of the purchase money. 
		

		
			Section 9.

			(a)In the event that all or substantially all of the property of the Company subject to the lien of this Indenture shall be taken under the power of eminent domain or acquired by any governmental body in the exercise of a right reserved to purchase the same, or sold and released from the lien hereof, the award or consideration therefor, which shall consist solely of cash, shall within six months be used for the redemption of bonds at the applicable redemption prices (which in the case of bonds of the 31⁄4% Series due 1971 shall be the applicable redemption prices specified in Article II hereof);
		

		 

		

			50

		

 

		

			 

		

		
			(b)Upon any specific release of property where the total consideration is in excess of $1,000,000, such part of the consideration which shall be in excess of $1,000,000 shall to the extent of any cash constituting part of such consideration, be applied within six months to the purchase of bonds of the 31⁄4% Series due 1971 pursuant to Section 2 of Article X hereof, or to the redemption of bonds of the 31⁄4% Series due 1971 pursuant to Section 3 of Article X hereof at the applicable redemption prices specified in Section 3 of Article II hereof;

			Article X.
Concerning the Application of Moneys Received by the Trustee.
		

		
			Section 1.  (A) Unless an event of default of the character specified in Section 1 of Article XI has occurred and has not been rescinded and annulled as therein provided or been otherwise cured or made good to the satisfaction of the Trustee, any moneys received by the Trustee (a) on account of the principal of any obligations received by the Trustee under the provisions of Section 4 of Article IX of this Indenture, or (b) subject to the limitations prescribed in Sections 6 and 9 of Article IX, as proceeds of released property or of property taken by the power of eminent domain, or (c) as proceeds of any insurance against loss or damage by fire, or (d) upon the satisfaction, discharge or other release of any mortgage or other lien prior to the lien of this Indenture, shall be held by the Trustee as part of the mortgaged and pledged property and shall be paid out by the Trustee to or upon the written order of the Company from time to time:
		

		
			(1)To reimburse the Company for expenditures made for the replacement, restoration or repair of property destroyed or damaged by fire (to the extent that insurance moneys arising from such loss or damage are in the hands of the Trustee), upon receipt by the Trustee of (a) an Officers’ Certificate describing in reasonable detail such replacement, restoration or repair and stating the amount expended therefor and that such amount is, in the opinion of the signers, reasonable, and stating that all conditions precedent to the withdrawal of such moneys have been complied with, and (b) an Opinion of Counsel conforming to the requirements of paragraph 5 of subdivision (B) of Section 3 of Article IV with respect to such property as replaced, restored or repaired with such additions, omissions and modifications as may be appropriate in the light of the purposes for which it is used; or

			(2)In an amount equal to the Cost or Fair Value, whichever shall be less, of Available Permanent Additions, upon receipt by the Trustee of the instruments and opinions specified in paragraphs 2, 3, 5, 6 and 7 of subdivision (B) of Section 3 of Article IV with such additions, omissions and modifications as may be appropriate in the light of the purposes for which they are used.
		

		
			(B)Notwithstanding the fact that an event of default of the character specified in Section 1 of Article XI hereof has occurred, in case the mortgaged and pledged property or any part thereof shall be in the possession of a receiver of the Company or of the mortgaged and pledged property or if a trustee in bankruptcy or in reorganization proceedings (including reorganization proceedings under any Federal bankruptcy law or similar statutory provisions), lawfully appointed, or of an assignee for the benefit of creditors, the powers conferred upon the Company in and by this Section may, with the consent of the Trustee, be exercised by such receiver, trustee or assignee with respect to such part of the mortgaged or pledged property as may then be in his or its possession, and, if the Trustee shall be in possession of the mortgaged and pledged property or any part thereof under any provision of this Indenture, then the powers conferred upon this Company in and by this Section may be exercised by the Trustee in its discretion with respect to such part of the mortgaged and pledged property as may then be in its possession. Any certificate required by the provisions of this Section to be signed by any officer of the Company may be signed by such receiver, trustee, or assignee instead of such officer.
		

		
			Notwithstanding the fact that an event of default of the character specified in Section 1 of Article XI hereof has occurred, the Company, as long as it shall be in possession of the mortgaged and pledged property, may, with the consent of the Trustee, exercise the powers conferred upon it in and by this Section.
		

		
			Section 2.  Unless an event of default of the charactor specified in Section 1 of Article XI of this Indenture has occurred and has not been rescinded and annulled as therein provided or been otherwise cured or made good to the satisfaction of the Trustee, any moneys constituting all or any part of the moneys received by the Trustee as specified in Section 1 of this Article and not theretofore paid over or requested to be paid over to the Company pursuant to the provisions of Section 1 of this Article, and all or any part of any moneys deposited with the Trustee under the provisions of Section 5 of Article IV, Section 2 of Article VI, or Section 3 of Article VII, or Section 9 of Article IX, and not theretofore applied as therein authorized, shall, upon the request of the Company, expressed by a Resolution, as herein defined, be applied by the Trustee to the purchase of bonds outstanding hereunder of such series (one or more) as the Company (subject to the limitations contained in Section 2 of Article VI, Section 3 of Article VII, and Section 9 of Article IX) may designate at a price not exceeding the maximum price specified by the Company in its request to the Trustee, which maximum price shall not exceed the highest current redemption price of such bonds as shall be by their terms redeemable before maturity, and no more than the principal amount of bonds not so redeemable, or, if the Company shall not have specified any such maximum price, at a price not in excess of such redemption price of such bonds as shall be by their terms redeemable before maturity, and not exceeding the principal amount of bonds not so redeemable.
		

		
			Before making any purchase of bonds of any series pursuant to the provisions of this Section, the Trustee shall, by notice published once in each of two (2) successive calendar weeks 
		

		 

		

			52

		

 

		

			 

		

		in one authorized newspaper in the City of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, advertise for written proposals to sell to it on or before a specified date bonds outstanding hereunder of the series (one or more) designated by the Company; and the Trustee, to the extent, as nearly as is possible, of such funds then in its hands and requested by the Company to be so applied, shall purchase the bonds so offered at the lowest price or prices asked therefor, subject to the limitations as to the price to be paid hereinabove in this Section set forth, and reasonable notice shall be given by the Trustee to the owner or owners of the bonds whose proposals may be accepted. If all bonds of the series (one or more), offers of which are invited, are registered bonds, including coupon bonds registered as to principal, no publication by notice of invitation of offers shall be necessary and notice given by mail to the owners of such bonds at their last addresses appearing on the registry books shall be sufficient.
		

		
			Upon the request by Resolution hereinabove in this Section provided for, the Trustee may also, in its discretion, and upon request of the Company so to do, shall, invite offers of bonds for sale to the Trustee in any other usual manner.
		

		
			Should there be two or more proposals at the same price aggregating more than the amount which the Trustee has available for the purchase of bonds, after having accepted all proposals at lower prices, the Trustee shall, in accepting proposals, give preference to such proposals as are subject to acceptance of a portion thereof as against proposals not subject to such acceptance, and shall as between proposals subject to acceptance of a portion thereof accept the same pro rata as nearly as may be to avoid the purchase of fractions of bonds, and shall as between proposals not subject to such acceptance, select by lot, according to such method as to the Trustee shall deem proper in its discretion, the proposals to be accepted. The Trustee shall have the right to reject any or all proposals in whole or in part if it can at the time of opening said proposals purchase the requisite amount of such bonds or any part thereof at a lower price than it could by accepting said proposals. All offers by holders of bonds shall be subject to acceptance of a portion thereof unless otherwise expressed in the offers and all notices inviting written proposals shall so state. Upon the purchase of or upon the election (as provided in this Section) of the Trustee to purchase any bond, as hereinabove provided, the Trustee shall notify the Company in writing thereof, specifying the principal amount of the bonds purchased or to be purchased and the amount of the accrued interest, if any, thereon paid or to be paid by the Trustee on such purchase and the aggregate purchase price of such bonds, and the Company covenants that it will, from time to time, upon receipt by it of any such notice, immediately pay to the Trustee, as an additional payment to the Trustee, an amount in cash equal to such accrued interest on the bonds so purchased, or to be purchased, and the cost of all advertising and publishing.
		

		
			Section 3.  All or any part of any moneys received by the Trustee as specified in Section 1 of this Article and not theretofore paid out or requested to be paid out by the Trustee pursuant to Section 1 of this Article, and all or any part of any moneys deposited with the Trustee under the provisions of Section 5 of Article IV, Section 2 of Article VI, or Section 3 of Article VII, or Section 9 of Article IX, and not theretofore applied or requested to be applied as therein authorized shall,
		

		
			(a)at any time, upon the request of the Company expressed by a Resolution, as herein defined, be applied by the Trustee to the redemption of bonds issued hereunder, 
		

		 

		

			53

		

 

		

			 

		

		which are by their terms redeemable before maturity, of such series (one or more) as may (subject to the limitations contained in Section 2 of Article VI, Section 3 of Article VII and Section 9 of Article IX) be designated by the Company, in the manner and as provided for the redemption of bonds in Article V hereof, and in the event of each such redemption the Trustee shall notify the Company in writing forthwith of the bonds selected for redemption, specifying the amount of accrued interest payable in respect of the bonds to be redeemed upon such redemption, and the Company covenants that it will give or cause to be given the notice required in respect of the redemption of such bonds and will, at least three (3) days prior to the date fixed for such redemption, deposit with the Trustee an additional amount of cash equal to such accrued interest, and the cost of all advertising and publishing; or
		

		
			(b)at any time upon the order of the Company be invested by the Trustee in securities of the United States of America having a maturity of not more than five years from the date of such investment. Any investment so made shall be sold by the Trustee upon the order of the Company and the Company covenants that in the event of any loss sustained on any sale of such securities it will pay to the Trustee an amount in cash equal to the amount of such loss. Unless an event of default of the character specified in Section 1 of Article XI has occurred and has not been rescinded and annulled as therein provided, or been otherwise cured or made good to the satisfaction of the Trustee, the Trustee shall pay over to the Company any interest received on such securities.
		

		
			Section 4.  All bonds issued hereunder which shall be purchased or otherwise acquired by or delivered to the Trustee pursuant to the provisions of this Article X shall forthwith be cancelled and, upon the written request of the Company, delivered to the Company.
		

		
			Section 5.  If the mortgaged property shall be sold, either under the power of sale herein provided in Article XI hereof, or under decree of court in proceedings for the foreclosure of this Indenture, then any moneys remaining in the hands of the Trustee to be applied pursuant to the provisions of this Article X shall be added to and dealt with as if such moneys were part of the proceeds of such sale.
		

		
			Article XI.
Remedies of Trustee and Bondholders Upon Default.
		

		
			Section 1.  In case one or more of the following events, herein called events of default, shall happen, that is to say:

			(b)default continued for sixty (60) days in any Sinking or Improvement Fund or Maintenance or Improvement Deposit requirement hereunder or under any indenture supplemental hereto or for sixty (60) days in the payment of any interest on any bond secured hereby; or
		

		 

		

			54

		

 

		

			 

		

		
			(c)default continued for sixty (60) days after notice to the Company from the Trustee in the performance of any other covenant or agreement on the part of the Company herein or in any indenture supplemental hereto contained;
		

		
			(d)By decree of a court of competent jurisdiction the Company shall be adjudicated a bankrupt, or an order shall be made approving a petition seeking reorganization or readjustment of the Company under the federal bankruptcy laws or other law or statute of the United States of America or of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, or, by order of such a court, a trustee or trustees, or a receiver or receivers, shall be appointed of all or substantially all of the property of the Company or of all or any part of the property of the Company subject to the lien hereof, and any such decree or order shall have continued unstayed, on appeal or otherwise, and in effect for a period of sixty (60) days; or
		

		
			(e)The Company shall file a petition in voluntary bankruptcy or shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or shall consent to the appointment of a receiver or trustee of all or any part of its property, or shall file a petition or answer seeking reorganization or readjustment under the federal bankruptcy laws or other law or statute of the United States of America or of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, or shall file a petition to take advantage of any debtors’ act;
		

		
			either the Trustee or the holders or registered owners of twenty-five per cent. (25%) or more in principal amount of (1) the bonds then outstanding hereunder or (2) the bonds then outstanding hereunder primarily affected by the default, may declare the principal of all bonds hereby secured then outstanding, and the interest accrued thereon, immediately due and payable, and such principal and interest shall thereupon become and be immediately due and payable. Any such declaration by the Trustee may be made by notice in writing delivered by the Trustee to the Company, and any such declaration by the holders or registered owners of twenty-five per cent. (25%) or more in principal amount of (1) the bonds then outstanding hereunder or (2) the bonds then outstanding hereunder primarily affected by the default, may be made by notice in writing signed by such holders or registered owners of bonds and delivered to the Company and to the Trustee. The right to make any such declaration as aforesaid is subject, however, to the right of the holders or registered owners of a majority in principal amount of the bonds then outstanding hereunder by written notice to the Company and to this Trustee, to rescind and annul such declaration and destroy its effect at any time before any sale hereunder, if before any such sale all agreements with respect to which default shall have been made shall be fully performed, and all arrears of interest upon all bonds outstanding hereunder (with interest on overdue installments of interest at the legal rate of interest then in effect in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania) and reasonable expenses and charges of the Trustee, its agents and attorneys, and all other indebtedness secured hereby, except the principal of any bonds not then due by their terms, and interest accrued on such bonds since the last interest day, shall be paid, or the amount thereof shall be paid to the Trustee, for the benefit of those entitled thereto; but no such rescission or annulment and no waiver of default hereunder shall extend to or affect any subsequent default or impair any rights subsequently accruing thereon.
		

		
			Section 2.  Upon the occurrence of an event of default as defined in Section 1 of this Article, the Trustee may by its attorneys or agents enter into and upon all and singular the 
		

		 

		

			55

		

 

		

			 

		

		mortgaged property; and may exclude the Company, its agents and servants, wholly therefrom; and having and holding the same may use, operate, manage and control said property, and conduct the business, either personally or by its superintendents, managers, receivers, agents and servants or attorneys, to the best advantage of the holders of the bonds hereby secured, 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 mortgaged property, whereof it shall become possessed as aforesaid, in the manner and to the same extent as is usual with similar businesses, and, likewise, from time to time, at the expense of the trust estate, may make all necessary or proper repairs, renewals and replacements and useful alterations, additions, extensions, betterments and improvements thereto and thereon, as to it may seem judicious. In every such case, the Trustee shall have the right to manage the mortgaged property and to carry on the business and exercise all rights and powers of the Company either in the name of the Company or otherwise, as the Trustee shall deem best; and it shall be entitled to collect and receive all tolls, earnings, income, rents, issues and profits of the same and every part thereof; and after deducting the expenses of operating said mortgaged property and of conducting the business thereof and of all repairs, maintenance, renewals, replacements, alterations, additions, extensions, betterments, and improvements, and all payments which may be made for taxes, assessments, insurance and prior or other charges upon the mortgaged property or any part thereof, as well as just and reasonable compensation for its own services and for all counsel, agents, clerks, servants and other employees by it properly engaged and employed, it shall apply the moneys arising as aforesaid, as follows:
		

		
			(a)In case the principal of none of the bonds hereby secured shall be due by declaration, at maturity, or otherwise, to the payment of the interest remaining in default, or as the same becomes due, in order of the maturity of the installments of such interest and with interest on the overdue installments of interest at the same rate or rates respectively as may be payable upon the respective bonds; such payments to be made ratably to the person or persons entitled thereto, without discrimination or preference;
		

		
			(b)In case the principal of any bonds hereby secured shall be due by declaration, at maturity, or otherwise, to the payment of the principal and interest which shall then be owing or unpaid in accordance with the provisions of paragraph “Second” of Section 9 of this Article.
		

		
			When and if all the said payments shall have been made in full, and all sinking or improvement fund requirements have been complied with, and no suit to foreclose this Indenture shall have been begun or sale made as hereinafter provided, or in the event of any waiver as in Section 16 of this Article provided, the Trustee shall restore the possession of the property hereby conveyed to the Company; provided that if any of the defaults herein specified be subsequently made, neither such restoration to the Company nor any previous entry by the Trustee shall exhaust or in any manner impair the powers of entry or sale or any powers hereby granted to or conferred upon said Trustee.
		

		
			Section 3.  Upon the occurrence of an event of default as defined in Section 1 of this Article the Trustee may, by such officer or agent as it may appoint, with or without entry sell all the mortgaged property as an entirety, or in such parcels as the holders of a majority in principal amount of the bonds outstanding hereunder shall in writing request, or in the absence of such 
		

		 

		

			56

		

 

		

			 

		

		request, as the Trustee may determine, at public auction, at some convenient, place in Philadelphia, or such other place as may be required by law, having first given notice of such sale by publication in at least one authorized newspaper in Philadelphia for four consecutive weeks next preceding such sale, and any other notice which may be required by law, and from time to time may adjourn such sale in its discretion by announcement at the time and place fixed for such sale without further notice, and upon such sale may make and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers a good and sufficient deed or deeds for the same.
		

		
			Section 4.  In case of the breach of any of the covenants or conditions of this Indenture, the Trustee may take appropriate judicial proceedings for the enforcement of its rights and the rights of the bondholders hereunder. Upon the occurrence of an event of default as defined in Section 1 of this Article, the Trustee may either after entry, or without entry, proceed by suit or suits at law or in equity to enforce payment of the bonds then outstanding hereunder and to foreclose this mortgage and to sell the mortgaged and pledged property under the judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction.
		

		
			The Trustee may institute and maintain such suits and proceedings as it may deem necessary or expedient, (1) to prevent any impairment of the security hereunder by any unlawful acts of the Company, or of others, or by any acts of the Company or of others, in violation of the provisions of this Indenture or the rights of the bondholders hereunder, or (2) to preserve and to protect the interest of the Trustee and the security and interest of the bondholders in respect of the property subject to the lien of this Indenture, or in respect of the income, earnings, rents, issues and profits thereof.
		

		
			The Trustee shall take action as aforesaid at the request of, and in the manner requested by, the holders or registered owners of a majority in principal amount of the bonds then outstanding hereunder and upon being indemnified as hereinafter provided.
		

		
			No remedy by the terms of this Indenture conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the bondholders, is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to any other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute.
		

		
			No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default, shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such default or acquiescence therein; and every such right and power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient.
		

		
			Section 5.  Anything in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the bonds then outstanding hereunder shall have the right, at any time, by an instrument in writing executed and delivered to the Trustee, to direct the method and place of conducting all proceedings to be taken for any foreclosure sale of the trust estate, or for the foreclosure of this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver.
		

		
			Section 6.  In case of the occurrence of an event of default under Section 1 of this Article, the Trustee shall be entitled as a matter of right, to the appointment of a receiver or receivers of 
		

		 

		

			57

		

 

		

			 

		

		the mortgaged property, and of the income, rents, issues and profits thereof, pending such proceedings, with such powers as the court making such appointment shall confer.
		

		
			Section 7.  Upon any sale being made either under the power of sale hereby given or under judgment or decree in any judicial proceedings for the foreclosure or otherwise for the enforcement of this Indenture:
		

		
			(a)The principal of all bonds then outstanding hereunder, if not previously due, shall at once become and be immediately due and payable.
		

		
			(b)Any bondholder or bondholders or the Trustee, may bid for and purchase the mortgaged and pledged property and upon compliance with the terms of sale may hold, retain and possess and dispose of such property in their or its own absolute right without further accountability, and any purchaser at any such sale may, in paying purchase money, turn in any of the bonds and coupons outstanding hereunder in lieu of cash to the amount which shall, upon distribution of the net proceeds of such sale, be payable thereon. Said bonds and coupons, in case the amounts so payable thereon shall be less than the amount due thereon, shall be returned to the holders thereof after being properly stamped to show partial payment.
		

		
			(c)The receipt of the Trustee or of the officer making such sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers at any sale for his or their purchase money and such purchaser or purchasers, his or their assigns or personal representatives, shall not, after paying such purchase money and receiving such receipt, be obliged to see to the application of such purchase money, or be in anywise answerable for any loss, misapplication or nonapplication thereof.
		

		
			(d)Such sale shall operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, either at law or in equity, of the Company, of, in and to the property sold, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against the Company, its successors and assigns and against any and all persons claiming or who may claim the property sold or any part thereof, from, through or under the Company, its successors or assigns.
		

		
			Section 8.  Upon the completion of any sale or sales under this Indenture, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the accepted purchaser or purchasers, a good and sufficient deed or good and sufficient deeds or other instruments conveying, assigning and transferring the property and franchises sold. And the Trustee hereby is appointed the true and lawful attorney irrevocable of the Company, in its name and stead to make all necessary deeds, conveyances and instruments of transfer of property thus sold; and for that purpose, it may execute all necessary deeds, conveyances or instruments of transfer and may substitute one or more persons, with like power; the Company hereby ratifying and confirming all that its said attorney or attorneys, or such substitute or substitutes, shall lawfully do by virtue hereof.
		

		
			Section 9.  The proceeds of any sale or sales, whether made under the power of sale hereby granted or conferred, or under or by virtue of judicial proceedings, together with any other sums which then may be held by the Trustee under any of the provisions of this Indenture, as part of the trust estate or the proceeds thereof, shall be applied as follows:
		

		

		

		 

		

			58

		

 

		

			 

		

		First.—To the payment of the costs and expenses of such sale, including a reasonable compensation to the Trustee, its agents, attorneys and counsel, and all expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the Trustee under this Indenture, and to the payment of all taxes, assessments or liens prior to the lien of these presents, except any taxes, assessments or other superior liens, subject to which such sale shall have been made.
		

		
			Second.—To the payment of the whole amount of the principal and interest which shall then be unpaid upon any or all bonds hereby secured, with interest on the overdue principal and on the overdue instalments of interest at the same rate or rates respectively as may be payable upon the respective bonds, and in case such proceeds shall be insufficient to pay in full the whole amount so due and unpaid upon the said bonds, then to the payment of such principal and interest ratably without preference or priority of one series over another series, or of principal over interest, or of interest over principal, or of any installment of interest over any other installment of interest. Provided, however, that if any coupon or claim for interest upon any bond outstanding hereunder shall have been funded or extended, with or without the consent of the Company, or at, or after maturity, shall have been transferred or pledged separate from the bond to which it relates, such coupon or claim for interest shall not 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 outstanding hereunder and of all coupons and claims for interest that shall not have been so funded or extended or transferred or pledged, and provided, further, that if any such coupons or claims for interest on any of said bonds shall be owned by the Company at or after maturity, then such matured coupons or claims for interest shall not be entitled to the benefit or security of this Indenture and the Company covenants that all such coupons and claims for interest so owned by it at or after maturity shall promptly be cancelled.
		

		
			Third.—To the payment of the surplus, if any, to the Company, its successors or assigns, or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same.
		

		
			Section 10.  In case of a default on its part, as aforesaid, neither the Company nor any one claiming through or under it shall or will set up, claim or seek to take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay, exemption, extension or redemption laws now or hereafter in force in any locality where any of the mortgaged property may be situated. And the Company, for itself and all who may claim through or under it, waives any and all right to have the estates comprised in the security intended to be created hereby marshalled upon any foreclosure of the lien hereof, and agrees that any court having jurisdiction to foreclose such lien may sell the mortgaged property as an entirety. The Company hereby covenants that it will not hinder, delay nor impede the execution of any power herein granted and delegated to 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.
		

		
			Section 11.  The Company covenants that in case default shall be made and shall continue for sixty (60) days in the payment of any interest on any bond or bonds outstanding under this Indenture, when the same becomes payable or in case default shall be made in the payment of the principal of any bond or bonds when the same becomes payable whether at maturity, or by declaration, or upon a sale of the mortgaged property, or otherwise, then, upon demand of the Trustee, the Company will pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the holders of all bonds and coupons hereby secured then outstanding, the whole amount which then shall have 
		

		 

		

			59

		

 

		

			 

		

		become due and payable on all such bonds then outstanding, for interest or principal or both, as the case may be, with interest on the overdue principal and on the overdue installments of interest at the same rate or rates respectively as may be payable upon the respective bonds; and in case the Company shall fail to pay the same forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee in its own name and as trustee of an express trust shall be entitled, with or without possession or presentation of said bonds or coupons, to sue and recover judgment for the whole amount so due and unpaid.
		

		
			The Trustee shall be entitled to sue and recover judgment as aforesaid either before, after, or during the pendency of any proceedings for the enforcement of this Indenture upon the mortgaged property, and the right of the Trustee to recover such judgment shall not be affected by any entry or sale hereunder or by the exercise of any other right, power or remedy for the enforcement of the provisions of this Indenture or for the foreclosure of the lien hereof; and in case of a sale of the mortgaged property and of the application of the proceeds of sale as in this Article provided, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, shall be entitled to enforce payment of and to receive all amounts then remaining due and unpaid upon all bonds of whatever series issued hereunder and then outstanding, for the benefit of the holders thereof, and shall be entitled to recover judgment for any portion of the mortgaged debt and interest remaining unpaid as aforesaid. No recovery of any such judgment by the Trustee and no levy of any execution upon any such judgment, upon property subject to the lien of this Indenture or upon any other property, shall in any manner or to any extent, affect the lien of this Indenture upon the mortgaged property or any part thereof, or any rights, powers or remedies of the Trustee hereunder, or any lien, rights, powers or remedies of the holders of any bonds of any series hereby secured, but such lien, rights, powers and remedies of the Trustee and of the bondholders shall continue unimpaired as before.
		

		
			Any moneys thus collected by the Trustee under this Section 11 shall be applied by it, first, to the payment of the expenses, disbursements and compensation of the Trustee, its agents and attorneys; and, second, toward payment of the amounts then due and payable upon such bonds and coupons ratably and without any preference or priority of any kind, upon presentation of the several bonds and coupons and upon stamping such payment thereon, if partly paid, or upon surrender thereof, if fully paid, subject, however, to the proviso contained in Section 9 of this Article.
		

		
			Section 12.  Any rights of action under this Indenture may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the bonds or coupons hereby secured or the production thereof on the trial or other proceeding relative thereto, and any such suit or proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name, and any recovery of judgment shall be for the ratable benefit of the holders of all bonds and coupons secured hereby, without preference or priority of one series over any other series.
		

		
			Section 13.  No holder of any bond or coupon hereby secured shall have the right to institute any suit, action or proceeding at law or in equity upon or in respect of this Indenture, or for the execution of any trust or power hereof, or for any other remedy under or upon this Indenture, unless such holder shall previously have given to the Trustee written notice of any existing default and of the continuance thereof as hereinbefore provided, nor unless also the holders of not less than twenty-five per cent. (25%) in principal amount of the bonds outstanding 
		

		 

		

			60

		

 

		

			 

		

		hereunder shall have made written request upon the Trustee and shall have afforded to it reasonable opportunity either to proceed itself to exercise the powers hereinbefore granted, or to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name, nor unless also such holder or holders shall have offered to the Trustee adequate security and indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in or by reason of such action, suit or proceeding, and the Trustee shall have omitted to comply with such request within a reasonable time thereafter; 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 trusts and powers of this Indenture, and to any action or cause of action for foreclosure or for any other remedy hereunder; it being understood and intended that no one or more holders of bonds or 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 hereunder, except in the manner herein provided, and that all proceedings hereunder shall be instituted, had and maintained in the manner herein provided and for the equal benefit of all holders of outstanding bonds and coupons of whatsoever series secured hereby.
		

		
			Nothing in this Indenture contained shall, however, affect or impair the right of the holder of any bond, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive the payment of the principal of and interest on such bond at and after the maturity thereof as therein expressed, or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after maturity thereof, or affect the obligation of the Company, which is also absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on each of the bonds to the respective holders thereof at the time and place in said bonds and the appurtenant coupons expressed.
		

		
			No bondholder or bondholders may, however, institute any such suit, action or proceeding if and to the extent that the institution or prosecution thereof or the entry of a judgment or a decree therein would, under applicable law, result in the surrender, impairment, waiver or loss of the lien of this Indenture upon any property subject thereto.
		

		
			Section 14.  The Company may, if permitted by law, waive any period of grace provided for in this Article.
		

		
			Section 15.  In case the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture, of foreclosure, entry, sale or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such ease, the Company and the Trustee shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, in respect of the mortgaged property, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Trustee shall continue as though no such proceeding had been taken.
		

		
			Article XII.
Leases, Consolidations, etc.
		

		
			Section 1.  All the covenants, conditions and provisions in this Indenture and any supplemental indenture binding upon or enuring to the benefit of the Company shall bind and enure to the benefit of its successors and assigns whether so expressed or not.
		

		 

		

			61

		

 

		

			 

		

		
			Section 2.  Nothing contained in this Indenture or in any bonds issued hereunder shall prevent any lease, subject to the continuing prior lien of this Indenture and to all the provisions thereof, of all or substantially all the mortgaged property as an entirety to a corporation empowered to lease and operate the same, provided, however, that such lease shall by its terms expressly require the lessee therein to assume due and punctual payment of the principal and interest on all bonds issued hereunder from time to time outstanding under this Indenture becoming due and payable during the continuance of said lease or any extension or renewal thereof, and the due and punctual performance and observance during such time of all covenants and conditions to be performed and observed by the Company, and shall be made expressly subject to termination by the Trustee in case of the happening of an event of default, or by the purchaser at any sale of said mortgaged property made in enforcement of this Indenture.
		

		
			Section 3.  Nothing contained in this Indenture or in any bonds issued hereunder shall prevent any consolidation or merger of the Company with any other corporation or any transfer or conveyance, subject to the continuing lien of this Indenture and to all the provisions hereof, of all or substantially all the mortgaged property as an entirety to a corporation empowered to acquire and operate the same, provided that such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer shall be upon such terms as to preserve and not to impair the lien and security of this Indenture and the rights and powers of the Trustee and of the holders of the bonds issued hereunder; and that the corporation formed by such consolidation or merger, or the corporation to which such conveyance or transfer shall be made, (hereinafter referred to as successor corporation), shall execute and cause to be recorded a supplemental indenture satisfactory to the Trustee and to which the Trustee shall be a party, whereby it shall expressly assume due and punctual payment of the principal and interest of all bonds issued hereunder according to their tenor, and the due and punctual performance and observance of all covenants and conditions of this Indenture and of all supplemental indentures to be performed and observed by the Company, and shall covenant that all additional plants and properties and permanent improvements, extensions, betterments, or additions (including equipment and appliances), which shall be acquired or constructed by it to the extent to which the same or any undivided portion thereof shall from time to time constitute in whole or in part appurtenances to the mortgaged property or additions or accessions thereto reasonably necessary to the maintenance or operation thereof, shall forthwith become subject to the lien of this Indenture and subject to no mortgage liens prior hereto except the lien of any mortgage subject to which the successor corporation shall acquire or construct such property.
		

		
			Such successor corporation upon executing and recording a supplemental indenture as aforesaid shall thereupon succeed to and be substituted for the Company, with the same effect as if it had been named herein as the mortgagor company; and such successor corporation thereupon may execute and cause to be authenticated and delivered by the Trustee, and may issue, either in its own name or in the name of the Company, in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture any and all bonds previously authorized by the Company which theretofore shall not have been issued; and may authorize and issue additional bonds hereunder either in its own name or in the name of the Company; and upon the order of the successor corporation, in lieu of the Company and subject to all the conditions and restrictions prescribed in Article IV hereof, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver all such bonds upon the request of such successor corporation in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture. All bonds so issued in every respect shall have the same legal rank and security as the bonds theretofore issued in 
		

		 

		

			62

		

 

		

			 

		

		accordance with the terms of this Indenture. The Trustee may receive an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that any such indenture complies with the foregoing conditions and provisions in this Section.
		

		
			Section 4.  Nothing in this Indenture contained shall require the lien hereof or of any indenture supplemental hereto to be extended in consequence of any such consolidation, merger, transfer or conveyance to any property of the successor corporation, except as required by the provisions of Section 3 of this Article.
		

		
			Article XIII.

			Section 5.  Except as herein otherwise provided, any notice or demand which by any provision of this Indenture is required or permitted to be given or served by the Trustee on the Company shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given and served, for all purposes, upon being deposited, postage prepaid, addressed (until another address is filed by the Company with the Trustee) as follows: Philadelphia Suburban Water Company, 762 Lancaster Avenue, Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania; and after another address shall have been filed by the Company with the Trustee as aforesaid, at the last address so filed.

The Trustee is authorized to deposit, in trust for the payment of the principal of and any premium on and interest on any bonds issued under this Indenture, with any co-paying agent appointed in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, provided such co-paying agent shall be a bank or trust company having a capital and surplus of not less than Five million dollars ($5,000,000), subject to recall by the Trustee, such part of such moneys as shall, in the opinion of the Trustee, be necessary or desirable to provide for the payment, by any such co-paying agent of the principal of or the premium or the interest on any of the bonds issued hereunder and the Trustee shall be relieved of responsibility for the safety and application of such moneys while in the possession of the co-paying agent.

			Section 13.  Unless an event of default of the character specified in Section 1 of this Article has occurred and has not been rescinded or annulled as provided in said Section 1 hereof, or been otherwise cured or made good to the satisfaction of the Trustee, in the event that the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or suffering any action hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by a certificate signed by the President or a Vice-President and the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer of the Company conforming to the applicable requirements of this Indenture, if any, and delivered to the Trustee, and such certificate shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action taken or suffered by it under the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof; but in its discretion the Trustee may require such further evidence of such fact or matter or may require such further or additional evidence as to it may seem reasonable.
		

		
			Section 14.  The Trustee acting for itself or as a banker may become a purchaser, seller or pledgee of bonds and coupons hereby secured with the same rights that it would have if it were not Trustee and without liability or accountability to the Company or the bondholders or 
		

		 

		

			67

		

 

		

			 

		

		otherwise in respect of any such purchase, sale or pledge by or to it of any such bonds and coupons. It may act as depositary for, and may permit any of its officers or directors to act as a member of any committee formed to protect the rights of bondholders, or effect or aid in any reorganization growing out of the enforcement of the bonds or of this Indenture, whether or not any such committee shall represent the holders of a majority in principal amount of the bonds outstanding hereunder.
		

		
			Section 15.  Any action taken by the Trustee pursuant to any provision of this Indenture or of any indenture supplemental hereto upon the request or with the consent of any person who at the time is the holder or registered owner of any bond or bonds shall be conclusive and binding upon any future holder or registered owner of the same bond or bonds.
		

		
			Section 16.  If the Trustee has or shall acquire any conflicting interest as defined in this Section, (a) the Trustee shall, within ninety (90) days after ascertaining that it has such conflicting interest, either eliminate such conflicting interest or resign in the manner hereinafter provided, such resignation to become effective upon the appointment of a successor Trustee and such successor’s acceptance of such appointment, and the Company shall take prompt steps to have a successor appointed in the manner hereinafter provided in Section 20 of this Article; and (b) in the event that the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of the preceding clause (a) of this Section, the Trustee shall, within ten (10) days after the expiration of such ninety (90) day period, transmit notice of such failure to the holders and registered owners of the bonds in the manner provided in subdivision (C) of Section 10 of this Article; and (c) any bondholder who has been a bona fide holder or registered owner of bonds for at least six (6) months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee, and the appointment of a successor, if the Trustee fails, after written request by such holder, to comply with the provisions of clause (a) of this Section. For the purposes of this Section the Trustee shall be deemed to have a conflicting interest if

			(2)the Trustee or any of its directors or executive officers is an obligor upon the bonds issued under this Indenture, or an underwriter for the Company;

			(4)the Trustee or any of its directors or executive officers is a director, officer, partner, employee, appointee, or representative of the Company, or of an underwriter (other than the Trustee itself) for the Company who is currently engaged in the business, of underwriting, except that (a) one individual may be a director or an executive officer of the Trustee and a director or an executive officer of the Company, but may not be at the same time an executive officer of both the Trustee and of the Company, and (b) if and so long as the number of directors of the Trustee in office is 
		

		 

		

			68

			The specification of percentages in paragraphs (5) to (9), inclusive, of this Section shall not be construed as indicating that the ownership of such percentages of the securities of a person is or is not necessary or sufficient to constitute direct or indirect control for the purposes of paragraphs (3) or (7) of this Section.
		

		
			For the purposes of paragraphs (6), (7), (8) and (9) of this Section, (a) the terms “security” and “securities” shall include only such securities as are generally known as corporate securities, but shall not include any note or other evidence of indebtedness issued to evidence an obligation to repay moneys lent to a person by one or more banks, trust companies, or banking firms, or any certificate of interest or participation in any such note or evidence of indebtedness; (b) an obligation shall be deemed to be in default when a default in payment of principal shall have continued for thirty (30) days or more, and shall not have been cured; and (c) the Trustees shall not be deemed the owner or holder of (i) any security which it holds as collateral security (as trustee or otherwise) for an obligation which is not in default as defined above, or (ii) any security which it holds as collateral security under this Indenture, irrespective of any default hereunder, or (iii) any security which it holds as agent for collection, or as a custodian, escrow agent or depositary, or in any similar representative capacity.

			For the purposes of this Section, the terms “directors,” “executive officers” and “voting securities” shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in Section 303 of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939.
		

		
			For the purposes of this Section, the term “person” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Section 2 of the Securities Act of 1933.
		

		
			The percentages of voting securities and other securities specified in this Section shall be calculated in accordance with the following provisions:
		

		
			(a)A specified percentage of the voting securities of a person means such amount of the outstanding voting securities of such person as entitles the holder or holders thereof to cast such specified percentage of the aggregate votes which the holders of all the outstanding voting securities of such person are entitled to cast in the direction or management of the affairs of such person.

			(4)Securities held in escrow if placed in escrow by the issuer thereof;
		

		
			provided, however, that any voting securities of an issuer shall be deemed outstanding if any person other than the issuer is entitled to exercise the voting rights thereof.
		

		
			(e)A security shall be deemed to be of the same class as another security if both securities confer upon the holder or holders thereof substantially the same rights and privileges; provided, however, that, in the case of secured evidences of indebtedness, all of which are issued under a single indenture, differences in the interest rates or maturity dates of various series thereof shall not be deemed sufficient to constitute such series different classes; and provided, further, that, in the case of unsecured evidences of indebtedness, differences in the interest rates or maturity dates of various series thereof shall not be deemed sufficient to constitute such series different classes; and provided, further, that, in the case of unsecured evidences of indebtedness, differences in the interest rates or maturity dates thereof shall not be deemed sufficient to constitute them securities of different classes, whether or not they are issued under a single indenture.
		

		
			Section 17.  (A) Subject to the provisions of subdivision (B) of this Section, if the Trustee shall be or shall become a creditor, directly or indirectly, secured or unsecured, of the Company (other than in a relationship of the nature specified in subdivision (F) of this Section) within four (4) months prior to a default, as defined in subdivision (E) of this Section or subsequent to such a default, then, unless and until such default shall be cured, the Trustee shall set apart and hold in a special account for the benefit of the Trustee individually and of the bondholders, and the holders of other indenture securities as defined in said subdivision (E):
		

		 

		

			71

		

 

		

			 

		

		
			(1)an amount equal to any and all reductions in the amount due and owing to the Trustee upon any claim as such creditor in respect of principal or interest, effected after the beginning of such four months’ period and valid as against the Company and its other creditors, except any such reduction resulting from the receipt or disposition of any property described in Paragraph (2) of this subdivision (A), or from the exercise of any right of set-off which the Trustee could have exercised if a petition in bankruptcy had been filed by or against the Company upon the date of such default; and
		

		
			(2)all property received by the Trustee in respect of any claim as such creditor, either as security therefor, or in satisfaction or composition thereof, or otherwise, after the beginning of such four months’ period, or an amount equal to the proceeds of any such property, if disposed of, subject, however, to the rights, if any of the Company and its other creditors in such property or such proceeds.
		

		
			(B)Nothing contained in this Section shall affect the right of the Trustee:
		

		
			(1)to retain for its own account (a) payments made on account of any such claim described in subdivision (A) of this Section by any person, other than the Company, who is liable thereon, and (b) the proceeds of the bona fide sale of any such claim by the Trustee to a third person, and (c) distributions made in cash, securities or other property in respect of claims filed against the Company in bankruptcy or receivership or in proceedings for reorganization pursuant to the Bankruptcy Act or applicable State law;
		

		
			(2)to realize, for its own account, upon any property held by it as security for any such claim, if such property was so held prior to the beginning of such four months’ period;
		

		
			(3)to realize, for its own account, but only to the extent of the claim hereinafter mentioned, upon any property held by it as security for any such claim, if such claim was created after the beginning of such four months’ period and such property was received as security therefor simultaneously with the creation thereof, and if the Trustee shall sustain the burden of proving that at the time such property was so received the Trustee had no reasonable cause to believe that a default, as defined in subdivision (E) of this Section, would occur within four (4) months; or
		

		
			(4)to receive payment on any claim referred to in paragraph (2) or (3) of this subdivision (B), against the release of any property held as security for such claim as provided in paragraph (2) or (3), as the case may be, of this subdivision (B), to the extent of the fair value of such property.
		

		
			For the purposes of paragraphs (2), (3) and (4) of this subdivision (B), property substituted after the beginning of such four months’ period for property held as security at the time of such substitution shall, to the extent of the fair value of the property released, have the same status as the property released, and, to the extent that any claim referred to in paragraphs (2), (3) and (4) of this subdivision (B) is created in renewal of or in substitution for or for the 
		

		 

		

			72

		

 

		

			 

		

		purpose of repaying or refunding any preexisting claim of the Trustee as such creditor, such claim shall have the same status as such preexisting claim of the Trustee.
		

		
			(C)If the Trustee shall be required to account, as in this Section provided, the funds and property held in such special account and the proceeds thereof shall be apportioned between the Trustee, the bondholders, and the holders of other indenture securities in such manner that the Trustee, the bondholders, and the holders of other indenture securities realize, as a result of payments from such special account and payments of dividends on claims filed against the Company in bankruptcy or receivership or in proceedings for reorganization pursuant to the Bankruptcy Act or applicable State law, the same percentage of their respective claims, figured before crediting to the claim of the Trustee anything on account of the receipt by the Trustee from the Company of the funds and property in such special account and before crediting to the respective claims of the Trustee, of the bondholders, and of the holders of other indenture securities dividends on claims filed against the Company in bankruptcy or receivership or in proceedings for reorganization pursuant to the Bankruptcy Act or applicable State law, but after crediting thereon receipts on account of the indebtedness represented by their respective claims from all sources other than from such dividends and from the funds and property so held in such special account. As used in this subdivision (C) with respect to any claim, the term “dividends” shall include any distribution with respect to such claim, in bankruptcy or receivership or in proceedings for reorganization pursuant to the Bankruptcy Act or applicable State law, whether such distribution is made in cash, securities, or other property, but shall not include any such distribution with respect to the secured portion, if any, of such claim. The court in which such bankruptcy, receivership or proceeding for reorganization is pending shall have jurisdiction (i) to apportion between the Trustee, the bondholders, and the holders of other indenture securities, in accordance with the provisions of this subdivision (C), the funds and property held in such special account and the proceeds thereof, or (ii) in lieu of such apportionment, in whole or in part, to give to the provisions of this subdivision (C) due consideration in determining the fairness of the distributions to be made to the Trustee, the bondholders, and the holders of other indenture securities with respect to their respective claims, in which event it shall not be necessary to liquidate or to appraise the value of any securities or other property held in such special account or as security for any such claim, or to make a specific allocation of such distribution as between the secured and unsecured portions of such claims, or otherwise to apply the provisions of this subdivision (C) as a mathematical formula.
		

		
			(D)If the Trustee shall have resigned or been removed after the beginning of such four months’ period, it shall nevertheless be subject to the provisions of this Section as though such resignation or removal had not occurred. If the Trustee shall have resigned or been removed prior to the beginning of such four months’ period, it shall nevertheless be subject to the provisions of this Section, as though such resignation or removal had not occurred, if and only if the receipt of property or reduction of claim which would have given rise to the obligation to account, if the Trustee had continued as such Trustee, occurred after the beginning of such four months’ period and within four (4) months after such resignation or removal.
		

		
			(E)As used in this Section, the term “default” means any failure to make payment in full of principal or interest, when and as the same becomes due and payable, on the bonds or on the other indenture securities; and the term “other indenture securities” means securities upon which the Company is an obligor (as defined in the Trust Indenture Act of 1939) outstanding 
		

		 

		

			73

		

 

		

			 

		

		under any other indenture (a) under which the Trustee is also trustee, (b) which contains provisions substantially similar to the provisions of this Section, and (c) under which a default exists at the time of the apportionment of the funds and property held in said special account.
		

		
			(F)The Trustee shall not be required to account, as provided in this Section, if the creditor relationship arises from:
		

		
			(1)the ownership or acquisition of securities issued under any indenture, or any security or securities having a maturity of one (1) year or more at the time of acquisition by the Trustee;
		

		
			(2)advances authorized by a receivership or bankruptcy court of competent jurisdiction, or by the terms and provisions of this Indenture, for the purpose of preserving the property subject to the lien hereof or of discharging tax liens or other prior liens or encumbrances on the trust estate, if notice of such advance and of the circumstances surrounding the making thereof is given to the bondholders, at the time and in the manner provided in this Indenture;
		

		
			(3)disbursements made in the ordinary course of business in the capacity of trustee under an indenture, transfer agent, registrar, custodian, paying agent, fiscal agent or depositary, or other similar capacity;
		

		
			(4)an indebtedness created as a result of services rendered or premises rented; or an indebtedness created as a result of goods or securities sold in a cash transaction, as defined in this subdivision (F);
		

		
			(5)the ownership of stock or of other securities of a corporation organized under the provisions of Section 25(a) of the Act approved December 23, 1913, known as the Federal Reserve Act, as amended, which is directly or indirectly a creditor of the Company; or
		

		
			(6)the acquisition, ownership, acceptance, or negotiation of any drafts, bills of exchange, acceptances, or obligations, which fall within the classification of self-liquidating paper, as defined in this subdivision (F).
		

		
			The term “security” or “securities,” as used in this subdivision (F), shall have the same meaning as the definition of the term “security” in Section 2 of the Securities Act of 1933.
		

		
			The term “cash transaction,” as used in paragraph (4) of this subdivision (F), means any transaction in which full payment for goods or securities sold is made within seven (7) days after delivery of the goods or securities in currency or in checks or other orders drawn upon banks or bankers and payable upon demand.
		

		
			The term “self-liquidating paper,” as used in paragraph (6) of this subdivision (F), means any draft, bill of exchange, acceptance or obligation which is made, drawn, negotiated or incurred by the Company for the purpose of financing the purchase, processing, manufacture, shipment, storage or sale of goods, wares or merchandise and which is secured by documents evidencing title to, possession of or a lien upon, the goods, wares or merchandise or the 
		

		 

		

			74

		

 

		

			 

		

		receivables or proceeds arising from the sale of the goods, wares or merchandise previously constituting the security, provided the security is received by the Trustee simultaneously with the creation of the creditor relationship with the Company arising from the making, drawing, negotiating or incurring of the draft, bill of exchange, acceptance or obligation.
		

		
			Section 18.   The Trustee, or any successor or successors hereafter appointed, or any of them, may at any time resign and be discharged of the trusts hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Company, specifying a date when such resignation shall take effect, at least sixty (60) days preceding the date on which such resignation is to take effect and, in the case of resignation of the Trustee, by publishing such notice once in each of not less than three (3) successive calendar weeks immediately preceding the date on which such resignation is to take effect, in an authorized newspaper in the City of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and such resignation shall take effect upon the day specified in such notice unless previously a successor trustee shall have been appointed by the Company or by the bondholders as hereinafter provided, in which event such resignation shall take effect immediately upon the appointment of such successor trustee.
		

		
			Section 19.   The Trustee, or any successor or successors hereafter appointed, or any of them, may be removed at any time by any instrument or concurrent instruments in writing filed with the Trustee and signed by the holders or registered owners of a majority in principal amount of the bonds then outstanding hereunder.
		

		
			Section 20.   In case at any time any Trustee shall resign or shall be removed, or shall become incapable of acting, or shall be dissolved or liquidated, or be in the process of dissolution or liquidation, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or adjudged insolvent, or if a receiver of any Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or if the Comptroller of the Currency or other public officer shall take charge or control of any Trustee or of its property or affairs, a successor or successors may be appointed by the holders or registered owners of a majority in principal amount of the bonds then outstanding hereunder, by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing signed and acknowledged by such bondholders or by their attorneys-in-fact duly authorized, and delivered to such new Trustee, notification thereof having been given to the Company and predecessor Trustee; provided, nevertheless, that until a new Trustee shall be appointed by the bondholders as aforesaid, the Company by an instrument executed by order of its Board of Directors and duly acknowledged by its proper officers, may appoint a Trustee to fill such vacancy until a new Trustee shall be appointed by the bondholders as herein authorized. The Company shall publish notice of any such appointment by it made at least once in each of not less than two (2) successive calendar weeks, in a daily newspaper printed in the English language and published and of general circulation in the City of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Any new Trustee appointed by the Company shall, immediately and without further action, be superseded by a Trustee appointed by the bondholders under the foregoing provisions of this Section; provided, however, that any new Trustee appointed by the Company shall not be superseded by a Trustee appointed by the bondholders unless such appointment by the bondholders shall have been made within one year subsequent to the appointment of such new Trustee by the Company.
		

		
			If in a proper case no appointment of a successor Trustee shall be made pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section within six (6) months after a vacancy shall have occurred in 
		

		 

		

			75

		

 

		

			 

		

		the office of Trustee, the holder of any bond outstanding hereunder or any retiring Trustee may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor Trustee. Said court may thereupon after such notice, if any, as such court may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor Trustee.
		

		
			Section 21.   Any successor trustee appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to its predecessor trustee, and also to the Company, an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance shall become fully vested with all the estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of its predecessor in trust hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as trustee or co-trustee herein; but the trustee ceasing to act, shall nevertheless, on the written request of the Company, or of the successor trustee, but at the cost and expense of the Company, execute, acknowledge and deliver such instruments of conveyance and further assurance and do such other things as may reasonably be required for more fully and certainly vesting and confirming in such successor trustee all the right, title and interest of the trustee to which he or it succeeds, and to the trust estate and such rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations, and the trustee ceasing to act shall also, upon like request, pay over, assign and deliver to the successor trustee any money or other property subject to the lien of this Indenture, which may then be in his or its possession. Should any deed, conveyance or instrument in writing from the Company be required by the new trustee for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such new trustee such estate, rights, powers and duties, any and all such deeds, conveyances and instruments in writing shall, on request, be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Company. A recital in any instrument executed by the Company and the new trustee that the appointment of such new trustee has been made by the requisite number of bondholders shall be deemed conclusive as to the appointment of such new trustee by such requisite number of bondholders. The resignation of any trustee and the instrument or instruments removing any trustee and appointing a successor trustee hereunder, together with deeds, conveyances and other instruments provided for in this Article shall forthwith, at the expense of the Company, be filed for record in the same office or offices, if any, in which this Indenture shall have been recorded.
		

		
			Section 22.   Any bank or trust company into which the Trustee or any successor to it in the trusts created by this Indenture may be merged, or converted, or with which it or any successor to it may be consolidated, or any bank or trust company resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee or any successor to it shall be a party, or which shall otherwise succeed to the business and affairs of the Trustee, shall be successor Trustee under this Indenture without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of either of the parties hereto, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, provided such bank or trust company shall be qualified under the provisions of Section 1 of this Article. In case any of the bonds issuable under this Indenture shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, any such successor trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of The Pennsylvania Company for Insurances on Lives and Granting Annuities, or of any successor to it, as Trustee hereunder, and deliver the same so authenticated; and in case any of the bonds issuable hereunder shall not have been authenticated, any successor Trustee may authenticate such bonds whether in the name of any predecessor Trustee or in the name of such successor Trustee, and in all such cases such authentication shall have the full force and effect which anywhere in said bonds or in this Indenture it is provided that the authentication of the Trustee shall have; provided, however, that the right to authenticate bonds in the name of The 
		

		 

		

			76

		

 

		

			 

		

		Pennsylvania Company for Insurances on Lives and Granting Annuities, shall extend only to its successor by merger, conversion or consolidation.
		

		
			Section 23.   The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and of the bondholders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company or its creditors or its property. In case of any receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceedings affecting the Company or its property, the Trustee, irrespective of whether the principal of the bonds shall then be due and payable and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand for such payment, shall be entitled and empowered either in its own name or as trustee of an express trust or as attorney in fact for the holders of the bonds and coupons, or in any one or more of such capacities, to file a proof of claim for the whole amount of principal and interest (with interest upon such overdue principal and, to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law, upon overdue installments of interest at the rate of six per centum (6%) per annum) which may be or become owing and unpaid with respect to the bonds and for any additional amount which may be or become payable by the Company hereunder, without regard to or deduction for any amount which may have been or which may thereafter be received, collected or realized by the Trustee from or out of the mortgaged property or any part thereof or from or out of the proceeds thereof or any part thereof; but nothing in this Indenture contained shall authorize the Trustee to accept or consent to any composition or plan of reorganization on behalf of any bondholder.
		

		
			Section 24.   Whenever it is provided in this Indenture that the Trustee shall take any action upon the happening of a specified event or upon the fulfillment of any condition or upon the request of the Company or of bondholders, the Trustee in taking such action shall have full power to give any and all notices and to do any and all acts necessary and incidental to such action.
		

		
			Article XIV.
Evidence of Rights of Bondholders and Ownership of Bonds.
		

		
			Section 1.   Any request, direction, declaration or other instrument which this Indenture may require or permit to be signed and executed by the bondholders, may be in any number of concurrent instruments of similar tenor, and shall be signed and executed by such bondholders in person or by attorney appointed in writing. Proof of the execution of any such request, direction, declaration or other instrument, or of a writing appointing any such attorney, or of the holding by any person of the bonds or coupons appertaining thereto, shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture (except as otherwise expressly provided herein) if made in the following manner:
		

		
			(a) The fact and date of the execution by any person of any such request, direction, declaration or other instrument or writing may be proved by the certificate of any notary public, or other officer authorized to take acknowledgments of deeds in the State in which he purports to act, that the persons signing such request, direction, declaration or other instrument of writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof, or by an affidavit of a witness to such execution;
		

		 

		

			77

		

 

		

			 

		

		
			(b) The amount and description of bonds transferable by delivery held by any person executing such request, direction, declaration or other instrument as a bondholder, and the issue and serial numbers thereof, held by such person, and the date of his holding the same, may be proved by a certificate executed by any trust company, bank, banker, or other depository, wherever situated, if such certificate shall be deemed by the Trustee to be satisfactory, showing that at the date therein mentioned such person had on deposit with such depository the bonds described in such certificate;
		

		
			(c) The ownership of registered bonds without coupons and of coupon bonds registered as to principal shall be proved by the registry books of the Company herein provided for or by a certificate of the custodian thereof.
		

		
			The Trustee may, nevertheless, in its discretion, require further proof in cases where it deems further proof desirable, and may require the production of any bond or bonds, and shall not be bound to recognize any person as a bondholder unless and until his title to the bonds held by him is proved in a manner satisfactory to the Trustee.
		

		
			Any request, consent or assent of the holder or registered owner of any bond shall bind all future holders and registered owners of the same bond, or any bond or bonds issued in lieu thereof or in exchange therefor, in respect of anything done, omitted, or suffered by the Company or the Trustee in pursuance thereof.
		

		
			Section 2.   The Company and the Trustee may deem and treat the bearer of any coupon bond outstanding hereunder, which shall not at the time be registered in the name of the owner thereof as hereinbefore authorized, and the holder of any coupon for interest on any such bond, whether such bond shall be registered or not, as the absolute owner of such bond or coupon, as the case may be, for the purpose of receiving payment thereof or on account thereof or for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
		

		
			The Company and the Trustee may deem and treat any person in whose name any registered bond without coupons outstanding hereunder shall be registered upon the books of the Company, as hereinbefore provided, as the absolute owner of such bond for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of and interest on such bond and for all other purposes, and they may deem and treat the person in whose name any coupon bond shall be so registered as the absolute owner thereof for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal thereof and for all other purposes except to receive payment of interest represented by detached coupons; and all such payments so made to any such registered owner or upon his order shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability upon any bond to the extent of the sum or sums so paid, and neither the Company nor the Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

			Section 1.   Modifications and alterations of this Indenture, of any indenture supplemental hereto, and of the rights and obligations of the Company and of the holders of the bonds and coupons may be made as hereinafter provided in this Article.
		

		
			Section 2.   The Trustee may at any time call a meeting of the bondholders, and it shall call such a meeting on the written request of the Company or of the holders of not less than twenty-five per cent. (25%) in principal amount of the bonds then outstanding. In the event of the Trustee’s failing for ten days to call a meeting after being thereunto requested as above set forth, the holders of twenty-five per cent. (25%) or more in principal amount of the bonds then outstanding, or the Company pursuant to resolution of the Board of Directors, may call such meeting. Every such meeting called at the instance of the Trustee shall be held at the principal office of the Trustee in the City of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, but if called by or at the request of the bondholders or of the Company, may be held at such other place in the City of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, or at such place in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York, as may be specified in the notice calling such meeting or requesting such meeting to be called. If such meeting is called by the Trustee, written notice thereof, stating the place and time thereof and in general terms the business to be submitted, shall be mailed by the Trustee not less than thirty (30) days before such meeting,
		

		
			(a) To the registered holders of coupon bonds registered as to principal and of registered bonds without coupons then outstanding addressed to them at their addresses appearing, if at all, on the bond registers of the Company,
		

		
			(b) To each holder of any coupon bond not registered as to principal who shall have filed with the Trustee an address for notices, addressed to him at such address, and

			and shall be published by the Trustee at least two times in a daily newspaper or newspaper printed in the English language and published and of general circulation in the city or cities in which the principal of the bonds is payable; provided, however, that the mailing of any such notice shall in no case be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken at such meeting. The first such publication of notice of any such meeting shall be made at least thirty (30) days prior to the meeting and the second such publication shall be made in any calendar week after the calendar week in which the first publication is made and preceding the meeting. If such meeting is called by the bondholders or the Company, after failure of the Trustee to call the same after being requested so to do in accordance with this Section, notice of such meeting shall be sufficient for all purposes hereof if given by newspaper publication as aforesaid, stating the place and time of the meeting and in general terms the business to be submitted. Any meeting of bondholders shall be valid without notice if the holders of all bonds then outstanding are present in person or by proxy and if the Company and the Trustee are present by duly authorized

			All holders of bonds outstanding at the time of such meeting shall be entitled to vote thereat; except that 
		

		
			(a)with respect to coupon bonds which have been stamped or upon which has been made a notation recording the issue of a certificate for voting at such meeting issued in the manner provided in Section 3 of this Article (whether or not such bonds are thereafter registered as to principal) only the holder of such certificate and his proxies shall be entitled to vote such bonds at said meeting and any adjournment thereof;
		

		
			(b)the Trustee may, and, upon request of the Company or of the holders of not less than twenty-five per cent. (25%) in principal amount of the bonds then outstanding, shall, fix a day not exceeding ninety (90) days preceding the date for which the meeting is called as a record date for the determination of the registered holders of coupon bonds registered as to principal and holders of registered bonds without coupons entitled to notice of and to vote at such meeting and any adjournment thereof, and only such holders of coupon bonds registered as to principal and such holders of registered bonds without coupons who shall have been such holders on the date so fixed, and who are entitled to vote such bonds at the meeting, shall be entitled to receive notice of such meeting, and, subject to the provisions of Paragraph (aa) of this Section, the coupon bonds registered as to principal on such record date and registered bonds without coupons may be voted at such meeting and any adjournment thereof only by the holders, and their proxies, who shall have been registered holders of such bonds on such record date, notwithstanding any transfer of any such bonds on the books of the Company after such date. If any coupon bonds registered as to principal on such record date shall thereafter be transferred to bearer, a suitable notation may be made upon such bonds at the time of their transfer from such registered holders’ names to record the fact that the registered holders of such bonds on said record date and their proxies shall be the only persons entitled to vote such bonds at the meeting. If any registered bonds without coupons are transferred or exchanged for coupon bonds after such record date, a suitable notation may be made on the bonds issued on such transfer or exchange at the time thereof to record the fact that the registered holders on said record date of the bonds so transferred or exchanged and their proxies shall be the only persons entitled to vote at the meeting the bonds so issued on such transfer or exchange. If any bonds in bearer form on such record date are thereafter registered as to principal and before any certificate as provided in Section 3 of this Article has been issued with respect to such bonds, the first registered holder to whom such bonds in bearer form are transferred prior to the meeting shall be deemed to have been a registered holder of such bonds on the record date for the purposes of this Article, except as to his right to receive notice of such meeting; and

		thereat, the Trustee may, and, upon request of the Company or of the holders of not less than twenty-five per cent. (25%) in principal amount of the bonds then outstanding, shall make and from time to time vary such regulations as it shall deem fit permitting holders of bearer bonds to submit such bonds to, or deposit their bonds with, any banks, bankers or trust companies or their duly authorized agents, which shall issue to or upon the order of the holders of such bonds certificates with respect thereto entitling the holders thereof to be present and vote at any such meeting and to appoint proxies to represent them and vote for them at any such meeting in the same way as if the persons so present and voting, either personally or by proxy, were the actual bearers of the bonds, in respect of which such certificates shall have been issued, and any regulations so made shall be binding upon the Trustee, the Inspectors of Votes and all bondholders. Unless the bonds so received are to be kept on deposit pending the holding of such bondholders’ meeting and any adjournments thereof, said banks, bankers or trust companies, or their duly authorized agents, upon issuing any such certificates shall make a notation upon the bonds with respect to which the certificates are to be issued recording the issue of such certificates, and shall forthwith return the bonds bearing such notation to the persons entitled thereto. Thereafter the bonds bearing such notation shall not be entitled to be voted at the meeting except by the holders, and their duly authorized proxies or agents, of the certificates issued with respect to such bonds.
		

		
			Each person seeking to attend or vote at any meeting of bondholders must, if required by any authorized representative of the Trustee or of the Company, produce such proof of bond or certificate of ownership or personal identity as shall be satisfactory to the Inspectors of Votes. Every proxy shall be signed by the bondholder or certificate holder himself or by his duly authorized attorney, and shall be witnessed; and its genuineness, if questioned, shall be established to the satisfaction of the Inspectors of Votes. All proxies and certificates presented at any meeting shall be delivered to the Inspectors of Votes and filed with the Trustee.
		

		
			Officers and nominees of the Company and of the Trustee may attend at any such meeting and take part therein, but shall not be entitled to vote thereat except to the extent that they may be bondholders or may hold proxies of bondholders or may hold certificates entitling them to vote issued as in this Section provided.
		

		
			Section 4.   Persons named by the Trustee if represented at the meeting shall act as temporary Chairman and Secretary, respectively, of the meeting, but if the Trustee shall not be represented or shall fail to nominate such persons or if any person so nominated shall not be present, then the bondholders and holders of certificates, issued as provided in Section 3 of this Article, and proxies present shall by a majority vote, irrespective of the amount of their holdings, elect other persons from those present to fill such vacancy or vacancies. A permanent Chairman and a permanent Secretary of such meeting shall be elected from those present by a majority in principal amount of the bonds represented by the bondholders and holders of such certificates and proxies present. The Trustee, if represented at the meeting, shall appoint two Inspectors of Votes who shall count all votes cast at such meeting, except votes on the election of a Chairman and Secretary as aforesaid, and who shall make and file with the Secretary of the meeting their verified written report in duplicate of all such votes so cast at said meeting. If the Trustee shall not be represented at the meeting or shall fail to nominate such Inspectors of Votes or if either Inspector of Votes fails to attend the meeting, the vacancy shall be filled by appointment by the permanent Chairman of the meeting.

			Section 5.   The holders or registered owners of not less than seventy-five per cent. (75%) in principal amount of the bonds entitled to be voted at any such meeting (or persons entitled to vote the same) must be present at such meeting in person or by proxy in order to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, less than a quorum, however, having power to adjourn. If such meeting is adjourned by less than a quorum for more than seven (7) days, notice thereof shall forthwith be mailed by the Trustee, if such meeting shall have been called by the Trustee, to the persons specified in paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of Section 2 of this Article, and shall be published at least once during the period of such adjournment in the newspaper or newspapers specified in said Section 2, such publication to be made at least five (5) days prior to the date of the adjourned meeting. The failure to mail such notice as aforesaid shall in no case affect the validity of any action taken at any meeting held pursuant to such adjournment. If such meeting shall have been called by the bondholders or by the Company after failure of the Trustee to call the same after being requested so to do in accordance with Section 2 of this Article, notice of such adjournment shall be given by the Chairman and Secretary of the meeting in the newspaper or newspapers specified in said Section 2 in the manner specified in this Section and shall be sufficient if so given.
		

		
			Section 6.   Any modifications or alterations of this Indenture, of any indenture supplemental hereto, and of the rights and obligations of the Company and of the holders of the bonds and coupons in any particular may be made at a meeting of bondholders duly convened and held in accordance with the provisions of this Article, but only by a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote, in person or by proxy, of the holders or registered owners of seventy-five per cent. (75%) in principal amount or more of the bonds (or persons entitled to vote the same) entitled to be voted upon any such modification or alteration when such meeting is held, and approved by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company as hereinafter specified; provided, however, that no such modification or alteration shall be made which shall reduce the percentage of bonds the consent of the holders or registered owners of which is required for any such modification or alteration or which shall affect the terms of payment of the principal of or interest on the bonds, or permit the creation by the Company of any lien prior to or on a parity with the lien of the Indenture with respect to any property subject to the lien of the Indenture as a first mortgage lien thereon, or which shall affect the rights of the holders or registered owners of less than all of the bonds of any series affected thereby. Any action permitted under this Section and taken at any meeting of the bondholders affecting the rights under this Indenture or any indenture supplemental hereto of the holders of one or more, but less than all, of the series of bonds outstanding hereunder, shall not be effective unless such action shall also have received the affirmative vote, in person or by proxy, of the holders or registered owners of at least seventy-five per cent. (75%) in principal amount of the bonds of each of the series so affected (or persons entitled to vote the same) entitled to be voted upon any such action when such meeting is held. For all purposes of this Article the Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon an Opinion of Counsel with respect to the extent, if any, as to which any action taken at such meeting affects the rights under this Indenture or under any indenture supplemental hereto of any holders or registered owners of bonds then outstanding.
		

		
			Bonds owned or held by, for the account of or for the benefit or interest of, the Company shall not be deemed outstanding for the purpose of any vote or of any calculation of outstanding bonds provided for in this Article or for the purpose of the quorum provided for in Section 5 of this Article hereof.
		

		

		

		 

		

			82

		

 

		

			 

		

		For all purposes of this Article, the Trustee, the Chairman and Secretary of any meeting held pursuant to this Article and the Inspectors of Votes at any such meeting, shall (unless challenged by any bondholder at such meeting) be entitled conclusively to rely upon a notification in writing by the Company, specifying the principal amount of bonds owned by or held by, for the account of or for the benefit or interest of, the Company, or stating that no bonds are so owned or held. In case the meeting shall have been called otherwise than on the written request of the Company, the Trustee, if the notification by the Company is not furnished as in this paragraph provided, shall be entitled conclusively to assume that none of the bonds outstanding under this Indenture are so owned or held.
		

		
			Section 7.   A record in duplicate of the proceedings of each meeting of bondholders shall be prepared by the Secretary of the meeting and shall have attached thereto the original reports of the Inspectors of Votes, and affidavits by one or more persons having knowledge of the facts setting forth a copy of the notice of the meeting and a copy of the notice of adjournment thereof, if required under Section 5 of this Article, and showing that said notices were published as provided in Section 2 of this Article, and in a proper case, as provided in Section 5 of this Article, such record shall be signed and verified by the affidavits of the permanent Chairman, the permanent Secretary of the meeting, and a duly authorized representative of the Trustee if such a representative was present at the meeting, and one duplicate thereof shall be delivered to the Company and the other to the Trustee for preservation by the Trustee. Any record so signed and verified shall be proof of the matters therein stated until the contrary is proved, and such meeting shall be deemed conclusively to have been duly convened and held, and any resolution or proceeding stated in such record to have been adopted or taken shall be deemed conclusively to have been duly adopted or taken by such meeting. A true copy of any resolution adopted by such meeting shall be mailed by the Trustee to each holder of coupon bonds registered as to principal and each holder of registered bonds without coupons outstanding addressed to him at his address appearing, if at all, on the bond register of the Company and to each holder of any coupon bond not registered as to principal who shall have filed with the Trustee an address for notices, addressed to him at such address (but failure to mail copies of such resolution as aforesaid shall not affect the validity thereof), and a copy or summary thereof shall be published by the Company at least once in the newspaper or newspapers specified in Section 2 of this Article, such publication to be made not more than fifteen (15) days alter the adoption of such resolution. Proof of such publication and mailing by the affidavit or affidavits of some person or persons having knowledge of the facts shall be filed with the Trustee. Such bondholders’ resolution shall not become effective unless and until approved by the Board of Directors of the Company as evidenced by a directors’ resolution filed with the Trustee, and any resolution of bondholders so adopted and approved shall be deemed conclusively to be binding upon the Company, the Trustee and the holders of all bonds and coupons, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Article; provided, that no such resolution of the bondholders, or of the Board of Directors of the Company, shall in any manner be so construed as to change or modify any of the rights or obligations of the Trustee without its written assent thereto. Nothing in this Article contained shall be deemed or construed to authorize or permit, by reason of any call of a meeting of bondholders or of any right expressly or impliedly conferred hereunder to make such call, any hindrance or delay in the exercise of any right or rights conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the bondholders under any of the provisions of this Indenture or of the bonds.

			Section 8.   Bonds authenticated and delivered after the date of any bondholders’ meeting may bear a notation, in form approved by the Trustee, as to the action taken at meetings of bondholders theretofore held, and, in such case, upon demand of the holder of any bond outstanding at the date of any such meeting and presentation of his bond for the purpose at the principal office of the Trustee, the Company shall cause suitable notation to be made on such bond by endorsement or otherwise as to any action taken at any meeting of bondholders theretofore held. If the Company or the Trustee shall so determine, new bonds so modified that they will, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Board of Directors of the Company, conform to such bondholders’ resolutions, shall be prepared, authenticated and delivered, and such new bonds shall be exchanged for bonds of the same series and maturity then outstanding hereunder, upon demand of, and without cost to, the holders thereof, upon surrender of such bonds with all unmatured coupons appertaining thereto. The Company or the Trustee may require bonds to be presented for notation or exchange as aforesaid if either shall see fit to do so. Instruments supplemental to this Indenture embodying any modification or alteration of this Indenture or of any indenture supplemental hereto, or of the rights and obligations of the Company or of the holders of the bonds and coupons made at any bondholders’ meeting approved by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company, as aforesaid, may be executed by the Trustee and the Company; and upon demand of the Trustee, or if so specified in any resolution adopted by any such bondholders’ meeting, shall be executed by the Company and the Trustee.

			The Company, the Trustee and any Paying Agent may deem and treat the registered owner of this bond as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal hereof and the interest hereon, and for all other purposes, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.
		

		
			This bond is transferable by the registered owner hereof in person or by attorney duly authorized in writing, on books of the Company to be kept for that purpose at the designated office of the Trustee in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania upon surrender hereof for cancellation at such office and upon presentation of a written instrument of transfer duly executed, and thereupon the Company shall issue in the name of the transferee or transferees, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new bond or bonds in authorized denominations, of equal aggregate unpaid principal amount. Any such transfer or exchange shall be subject to the terms and conditions and to the payment of the charges specified in the Indenture.
		

		
			No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or interest on this bond or for any claim based hereon or otherwise in respect hereof or of the Indenture or of any indenture supplemental thereto against any incorporator or any past, present or future stockholder, officer or director of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation, as such, either directly or through the Company, or through any such predecessor or successor corporation or through any receiver or trustee in bankruptcy, by virtue of any constitutional provision, statute or rule of law or equity, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issue hereof, expressly waived and released by every holder or registered owner hereof, as more fully provided in the Indenture.
		

		
			This bond shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto, or become valid or obligatory for any purpose, until The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.

			ARTICLE I.
		

		
			Form, Authentication and Delivery of the Bonds; Redemption Provisions              
		

		
			SECTION 1.  There shall be a __ series limited in aggregate principal amount to $__ designated as “Aqua Pennsylvania, Inc., First Mortgage Bond, __% Series due __,”.
		

		
			Interest on each Series of the Bonds shall be payable semiannually on ___ and ___ (each an “Interest Payment Date”) in each year commencing ___.  Each Bond shall be dated the date of its authentication and shall bear interest from the interest payment date next preceding the date of the authentication of such Bond (or if such Bond is authenticated after a Record Date as defined below and on or before the succeeding interest payment date, from such succeeding interest payment date, or if such Bond is authenticated on or prior to the record date for the first interest payment date for the Bonds, in which case it shall bear interest from the date of original issuance of the Bonds); provided, however, that, if at the time of authentication of any Bond, interest on the predecessor Bond of such Bond is in default, such Bond shall bear interest from the date to which interest has been paid, or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of original issuance thereof. The __% Series due __ shall be stated to mature (subject to the right of earlier redemption at the prices and dates and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth) on __ and shall bear interest at the rate of __% per annum.  Any payment of principal of or interest on any Bond that is due on a date other than a Business Day (as defined below) shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day without including the additional days elapsed in the computation of the interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day; provided that if the maturity date of any Bond is a date other than a Business Day, the payment otherwise due on such maturity date shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and shall include the additional days elapsed in the computation of interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day. As used herein, “Business Day” means any day other than a Saturday or Sunday, on which the Trustee, any paying agent or banks in New York, New York are not required or authorized by law or executive order to close.
		

		
			The Bonds shall be issuable only as registered bonds without coupons, shall be in the form hereinabove recited, in the minimum denomination of $__ or any integral multiple of $__ in excess thereof, shall be lettered “R”, and shall bear such numbers as the Company may reasonably require.
		

		
			The principal of, and interest on the Bonds shall be payable as provided in the form of Bond, and shall be payable, along with interest on the Bonds, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts; each installment of interest shall be paid by bank wire transfer of immediately available funds pursuant to instructions and conditions incorporated in an agreement between such person and the Trustee or the Company.
		

		
			The person in whose name any Bond is registered at the close of business on any Record Date with respect to any Interest Payment Date shall be entitled to receive the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date notwithstanding the cancellation of such Bond upon any transfer or exchange subsequent to the Record Date and prior to such Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that if and to the extent the Company shall default in the payment of the interest due on such Interest Payment Date, such defaulted interest shall be paid to the persons in whose names outstanding Bonds are registered at the close of business on a subsequent Record Date established by notice given by mail by or on behalf of the Company to the holders of Bonds not less than fifteen (15) days 
		

		 

		

			13

The term “Record Date” as used in this Section 1 with respect to any regular Interest Payment Date shall mean the first (1st) day of the calendar month in which such Interest Payment Date occurs. 
		

		
			Exchange of any Bonds shall be effected in accordance with the applicable provisions of Sections 7, 8 and 9 of Article II of the Original Indenture.
		

		
			The text of the Bonds and of the certificate of the Trustee upon such Bonds shall be, respectively, substantially of the tenor and effect hereinbefore recited.
		

		
			[SECTION 2. Except as otherwise provided in the succeeding paragraph with respect to optional redemption during the Prepayment Period (as defined herein), the Company may, at its option, upon notice as provided below, redeem at any time all, or from time to time any part of, the Bonds, in an amount not less than 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding in the case of a partial redemption, at 100% of the principal amount so redeemed, together with interest accrued thereon to the date of such redemption, plus the Make-Whole Amount (as defined below) determined for the redemption date with respect to such principal amount of each Bond being redeemed.  
		

		
			Provided that no default or event of default has occurred and is continuing, within one hundred and eighty days (180) days of the stated maturity date of any series of Bonds (the period from such date to the stated maturity of such series of Bonds being referred to herein as the “Prepayment Period”), the Company may, at its option, upon prior written notice as provided below, prepay all Bonds of such series at 100% of the principal amount so prepaid, together with interest on such principal amount accrued to the date of prepayment and without any Make-Whole Amount.
		

		
			The Company will give each holder of Bonds and the Trustee written notice of each optional redemption under this Section 2 not less than 30 days and not more than 45 days prior to the date fixed for such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify such date (which shall be a Business Day), the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds to be redeemed on such date, the principal amount of each Bond held by such holder to be redeemed (determined in accordance with Section 3 below), and the interest to be paid on the redemption date with respect to such principal amount being redeemed, and shall be accompanied by a certificate of the chief financial officer, principal accounting officer, treasurer or comptroller (each, for purposes of this Article I, a “Senior Financial Officer”) of the Company as to the estimated Make-Whole Amount due in connection with such redemption (calculated as if the date of such notice were the date of the redemption), setting forth the details of such computation. Two Business Days prior to such prepayment, the Company shall deliver to each holder of Bonds and the Trustee a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer specifying the calculation of such Make-Whole Amount as of the specified redemption date.]
		

		
			The term “Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any Bond, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such Bond over the amount of such Called Principal, provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount, the following terms have the following meanings:
		

		
			“Called Principal” means, with respect to any Bond, the principal of such Bond that is to be prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.
		

		

		

		 

		

			14

		

		

			 

		

 

		“Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Bond, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on such Bond is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal.
		

		
			“Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Bond, 0.50% over the yield to maturity implied by (i) the yields reported, as of 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as “Page PX1” (or such other display as may replace Page PX1) on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U.S. Treasury securities (“Reported”) having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there are no such U.S. Treasury securities Reported having a maturity equal to such Remaining Average Life, then such implied yield to maturity will be determined by (a) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (b) interpolating linearly between the yields Reported for the applicable most recently issued actively traded on-the-run U. S. Treasury securities with the maturities (1) closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Bond.
		

		
			If such yields are not Reported or the yields Reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), then “Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Bond, 0.50% over the yield to maturity implied by the U.S. Treasury constant maturity yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for the U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date. If there is no such U.S. Treasury constant maturity having a term equal to such Remaining Average Life, such implied yield to maturity will be determined by interpolating linearly between (1) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) the U.S. Treasury constant maturity so reported with the term closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Bond.
		

		
			“Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called Principal, the number of years obtained by dividing (i) such Called Principal into (ii) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (a) the principal component of each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (b) the number of years, computed on the basis of a 360 day year composed of twelve 30 day months and calculated to two decimal places, that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment.
		

		
			“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Bond, all payments of such Called Principal and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date, provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under the terms of any such Bond, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to this Section 2. 
		

		

		

		 

		

			15

		

		

			 

		

 

		“Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Bond, the date on which such Called Principal is to be redeemed pursuant to this Section 2.
		

		
			SECTION 3. In the case of each partial redemption of the Bonds (other than with respect to a redemption of all of the Bonds of any one Series during a Prepayment Period with respect to such Series of Bonds in accordance with Section 2 of this Article I), the principal amount of the Bonds to be redeemed shall be allocated among all of the Bonds at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to their respective unpaid principal amounts thereof.
		

		
			SECTION 4. Any redemption of the Bonds shall be effected in accordance with the provisions of Article V of the Original Indenture.
		

		
			SECTION 5.  All Bonds deemed to have been paid in full as provided in Section 2 and 3 of this Article I of this __ Supplemental Indenture shall be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Trustee shall forthwith cancel the same and, in accordance with applicable laws and regulations and the Trustee’s policies and procedures, and on the written request of the Company, deliver the same to the Company. Any Bond paid in full, whether at maturity or earlier redemption, shall be surrendered to the Company and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no Bond shall be issued in lieu of the principal amount of such Bond paid at maturity or redemption. In case part of an outstanding Bond shall be deemed to have been partially paid as provided in said Section 2 or Section 3, upon presentation of such Bond at the designated office of the Trustee, the Trustee shall make a notation thereon of the payment of the portion of the principal amount of such Bond so deemed to have been paid unless the registered owner shall elect to surrender such Bond to the Trustee, in which case the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, without charge to the registered owner, Bonds in such authorized denominations as shall be specified by the registered owner for the unpaid balance of the principal amount of such outstanding Bond. The holder of a Bond that has been partially paid, shall not be required to surrender such Bond to the Trustee or the Company; provided, however, prior to any sale or other disposition of any Bond by a holder thereof, such holder will either endorse thereon the amount of principal paid thereon and the last date to which interest has been paid thereon or surrender such Bond to the Company in exchange for a new Bond or Bonds pursuant to Article II of the Original Indenture. 
		

		
			SECTION 6.The __% Series due ___ in the aggregate principal amount of $___,  may be issued under the provisions of Article IV of the Original Indenture and may forthwith be executed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee and shall be authenticated by the Trustee and delivered to or upon the order of the Company, upon receipt by the Trustee of the resolutions, certificates, opinions or other instruments or all of the foregoing required to be delivered upon the issue of bonds pursuant to the provisions of the Original Indenture.
