                (b)           If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.6 hereof and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Grantor, or if at any time the Trustee shall be legally unable to act, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or if a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then the Grantor, and/or Beneficiaries by vote of more than 50% of the Units, may remove the Trustee and promptly appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor trustee.

                Section 9.10           Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.

                (a)           Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust may at the time be located, the Trustee shall have the power and may execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more persons to act as a co-trustee or co-trustees, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Trust, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the Beneficiaries, such title to the Trust, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 9.10, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 9.6 and no notice to Beneficiaries of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required under Section 9.8 hereof.

                (b)           Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions:

                (i)            All rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act separately without the Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any use of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed (whether as Trustee hereunder or as successor to the Administrator hereunder), the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding or title to the Trust or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Trustee;

                (ii)           No trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder; and

                (iii)          The Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee.

                (c)           Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article X. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its

C-16

acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee and a copy thereof given to the Administrator.

(d)   Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time constitute the Trustee, its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect to this Agreement on its behalf and in its name.

                Section 9.12           Trustee May Enforce Claims.  All rights of action and claims under this Agreement may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the beneficial interests, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee. Any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Beneficiaries in respect of which such judgment has been obtained.

                Section 9.13           Suits for Enforcement of Royalty Contracts.  If the Administrator and Grantor elect not to take action to enforce the Royalty Contracts under this Agreement, the Trustee, in its discretion, may proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Beneficiaries under the Royalty Contracts by suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law or otherwise, whether for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained in the Royalty Contracts as the Trustee, being advised by counsel, shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any of the rights of the Trustee or the Beneficiaries in the Royalty Contracts. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Beneficiary any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Beneficiaries, or authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Beneficiary in any such proceeding.

                Section 9.14           Rights of Beneficiaries to Direct Trustee.  Beneficiaries owning not less than 66 2/3 % of the Units shall have the right to direct the time, method, and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee; provided, however, that, subject to Section 9.1, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee being advised by counsel determines that the action so directed may not lawfully be taken, or if the Trustee in good faith shall, by a Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers of the Trustee, determine that the proceedings so directed would be illegal or involve it in personal liability or be unduly

C-17

prejudicial to the rights of Beneficiaries not parties to such direction; and provided further that nothing in this Agreement shall impair the right of the Trustee to take any action deemed proper by the Trustee and which is not inconsistent with such direction by the Beneficiaries.
