Section 1.05           Ranking.


The Notes are the obligations of the Company only.  The Notes are not guaranteed by any of the Company’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates, and will be structurally subordinated to all of the existin g and future liabilities of the Company’s Subsidiaries.  The Notes are secured in the Collateral (as defined in Section 1.06 below) and will rank equally among themselves.

Section 1.06           Security Agreement; Events of Default.

The Company, the Trustee, U-Haul Leasing & Sales Co., U-Haul Co. of Arizona, U-Haul Co. of Florida, U-Haul Co. of Idaho, Inc., U-Haul Co. of Texas and U-Haul Co. of New Jersey, Inc., each such entities being indirect subsidiaries of the Company , will enter into a Pledge and Security Agreement, subs tantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Pledge and Security Agreement”), concurrently with the execution of this Supplemental Indenture.  The Trustee is hereby directed to execute the Pledge and Security Agreement and to perform its duties as specified therein. 

 

Pursuant to the Pledge and Security Agreement and related financing statements, e ach of the series of Notes shall be secured by the following Collateral, as the initial Collateral for such series, subject to collateral substitutio ns as provided herein:

 

In all cases subject to collateral substitutions, the notes issued under Series UIC-14C are secured by a first-priority lien on a pool of U-Haul AO Trailers manufactured in fiscal year 2000  (the “AO Trailers”); the notes issued und er Series UIC-15C are secured by a first priority lien on a pool of AV Trailers manufactured between fiscal years 1991 and 2004 (the “AV Trailers”); the notes issued under Series UIC-16C are secured by a first priority lien on a pool of U-Haul RV Trailers manufactured between fiscal years 1993 and 2001 (the “RV Trailers”); the notes issued under Series UIC-17C are secured by a first priority lien on a pool of U-Haul FS Trailers manufactured between fiscal years 2008 and 2009  (the “FS Trailers”); the notes issued under Series UIC-18C are secured by a first priority lien on a pool of U-Haul DC Trucks manufactured between fiscal years 2007 and 2008 (the “DC Trucks”); the notes issued under Series UIC-19C are secured by a first priority lien on the real propert y and improvements thereon known as U-Haul of Hayward, located in Hayward, California (the “Hayward Property”); the notes issued under Series UIC-20C are secured by a first priority lien on the real property and improvements thereon known as U-Haul of Van Buren, located in Riverside, California (the “Van Buren Property”); the notes issued under Series UIC-21C are secured by a first priority lien on the real property and improvements thereon known as U-Haul of Tully Road, located in San Jose, California (the “Tully Road Property”); the notes issued under Series UIC-22C are secured by a first priority lien on the real property and improvements thereon known as U-Haul at Spruce Hills, located in Bettendorf, Iowa (the “Spruce Hills Property”); and the notes issu ed under Series UIC-23C are secured by a first priority lien on the real property and improvements thereon known as U-Haul of Fry Blvd., located in Sierra Vista, Arizona (the “Fry Blvd. Property”)

 

Once $100 has been invested with us in notes in any series herein, we will grant to the Trustee for the benefit of the holders a  lien ( as appropriate in the respective jurisdiction in which such property is located) , on the Collateral selected by Company management as to be securing such series.    The series of notes hereunder are not cross-defaulted or cross-collateralized to one another.  Accordingly, a default by AMERCO under one series of notes shall not trigger a default


under any other series of notes hereunder or under any other obligation of AMERCO or its affiliates.  Additionally, the collateral pledged to secure one series of notes hereunder shall not secure any other series of notes hereunder.  The equity of one property will not serve as security for any series of notes other than the ser ies of notes under which such property has been pledged. 

As new sub-series of the Notes are issued, or as additional Notes are issued under a given sub-series of the Notes, new schedules to the Pledge and Security Agreement will be added thereto and prov ided to the Trustee, to identify the specific Collateral being pledged under such sub-series of the Notes.  Pursuant to the Pledge and Security Agreement, the Collateral is being pledged by Pledgor to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of the Note s.  Subject to certain conditions set forth therein, the Company has the right, in its sole discretion, to make Collateral substitutions.  The Pledge and Security Agreement describes, without limitation, the Company’s right to make Collateral substitutions and the release of the Trustee’s security interest in the Collateral. 

With respect to the Notes, “Event of Default”, in addition to the meaning given in Section 501 of the Base Inden ture, shall include (i) the Company’s or Pledgor’s default in the perfo rmance, or breach of any covenant or representation and warranty in the Pledge and Security Agreement, and continuance of such default or breach (without such default or breach having been waived in accordance of the provisions of this Indenture) for a per iod of 90 days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company and the Pledgor by the Trustee if it has notice or actual knowledge of such event of default or to the Company , the Pledgor and the Trustee by the Holders of at leas t 51% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” under the Indenture , (i i) the repudiation or disaffirmation by the C ompany or the Pledgor of its material obligations under the Pledge and Security Agreement, and (iii ) the determination in a judicial proceeding that the Pledge and Security Agreement is unenforceable or invalid against the Pledgor for any reason with respe ct to a material portion of the Collateral.

Section 1.07           Maturity Date.

The Notes will mature the specified number of years as indicated in Section 1.03 herein following such Note’s respective issue date.  The schedules to the Pledge and Security Agreement shall set forth the different respective maturity dates of the Notes. 

Section 1.08           Further Issues.

Without the consent of Holders of not less than 51% of the principal amount of the outstanding Notes, the Company will not issue additional Notes secured by the Collateral.  Ho wever, the Company has the right, from time to time, without the consent of the Holders of the Notes , but in compliance with the terms of the Indenture , issue other Securities.

Section 1.09           Optional Redemption; Sinking Fund.

The Notes, including any sub-series thereo f and any portion of any sub-series thereof, may be redeemed by the Company in its sole discretion at any time, in whole or in part, without any penalty, premium or fee, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount then outstanding,


plus accrued and un paid interest, if any, through the date of redemption.  A partial redemption may be on a pro rata basis or on such other basis as is determined by the company in its sole discretion.  The Company will not be obligated to redeem fractions of Notes.  In the event of a redemption, the Company will cause noti ces of redemption to be emailed to the email address associated with each respective Holder’s U-Haul Investors Club account in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Base Indenture .

The Notes are not subject to any sinking fund, and the Company is not obligated to repay any principal and interest due on the Notes before such payments become due.  For the avoidance of doubt, Articles XII and XIII contained in the Indenture will not be appl icable to the Notes.

Section 1.10           Payment.

Principal and interest payments on the Notes, including without limitation the payment due on each date of Stated Maturity with respect to the Notes, will be credited to each Holder’s U-Haul Investors Club account, in U.S. d ollars.  For the avoidance of doubt, Article XIV of the Indenture will not be applicable to the Notes.

Principal and interest payments on the Notes will be deposited by or on behalf of the Company into one or more segregated accounts maintained by Service r (as defined in Section 1.16 below) (collectively, the “ Investment Account”) with a third party financial institution Servicer, on behalf of the Company, will maintain sub-accounts under the Investment Account for each Holder, which are referred to as “ U-Haul Investors Club accounts”. The U-Haul Investors Club accounts are record-keeping sub-accounts under the Investment Account that are purely administrative and reflect balances and transactions concerning the funds of each Holder with respect to the N otes.  Funds in the Investment Account will always be maintained at an FDIC member financial institution. 

 

Cash funds may remain in a Holder’s U-Haul Investors Club account indefinitely and will not earn interest.  Upon request by a Holder, made through the U-Haul Investors Club website and such Holder’s U-Haul Investors Club account, but subject to specified hold periods as disclosed in the Terms of Use, the Company will transfer, or will cause Servicer to transfer, funds in such Holder’s U-Haul Investor s Club account to such Holder’s linked U.S. outside bank account, by a transfer through the ACH System , provided such funds are not already committed to the purchase of other Securities, or to offset any fees payable by such Holder, pursuant to the U-Haul Investors Club.   

Section 1.11           Restrictions on Transfer .

The Notes are not transferable except between members of the U-Haul Investors Club through privately negotiated transactions relating exclusively to non-qualified (non-retirement/non IRA) accounts, as to whic h neither the Company, the Servicer, the Trustee, nor any of their respective affiliates will have any involvement.  The Notes are not being listed on any securities exchange, there is no anticipated public market for the Notes, and it is unlikely that a s econdary “over-the-counter” market for the notes will develop between bond dealers or bond


trading desks at investment houses.  Transfers of the notes held in qualified accounts are not permissible, other than transfers constituting Required Minimum Distri butions (RMD). 

Upon a transfer of one or more Notes following a privately negotiated transaction with another member of the Company’s U-Haul Investors Club, the transferor the transferee and must notify the Company through the U-Haul Investors Club websi te.  Thereafter, the Company will recognize the transfer and re-register the applicable notes in the name of the transferee. 

Section 1.12           Fees

The Company will charge a transfer fee for a Note transfer permitted by Section 1.11 of this Supplemental Indenture equal to $25.00 per transaction, assessed to the transferor.  Such fee will be automatically deducted from the funds in such Holder’s U-Haul Investor Club account.

Section 1.13           Company and Trustee Notices .

Holders of the Notes agree to receive all documents, communic ations, notices, contracts, securities offering materials, account statements, agreements and tax documents, including IRS Form 1099s, arising from the U-Haul Investors Club, or required to be delivered by the Indenture or any Security Documents applicable to the Notes, and to submit all documents, statements, communications, records and notices due from the Holders to the Company, electronically through the U-Haul Investors Club website and the Holders’ U-Haul Investors Club accounts.  In addition, the Sec urity Registrar agrees to deliver on behalf of the Trustee, and the Holders of the Notes agree to receive, electronically through the U-Haul Investors Club website and the Holders’ U-Haul Investors Club accounts, all reports of the Trustee required to be d elivered to the Holders of the Notes pursuant to the Indenture (including, without limitation, Section 703 of the Base Indenture) or any Security Documents applicable to the Notes.

Section 1.14           Place of Payment.

Notwithstanding anything contained in the Indenture to the contrary, no Place of Payment for the Notes shall be maintained by the Company.  The Notes may only be presented or surrendered for payment, surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, or surrendered in connection with an optional redemption by the Company described in Section 1.09 of this Supplemental Indenture, electronically through the Company’s U-Haul Investors Club website.

Section 1.15           Security Registrar and Paying Agent.

The Security Registrar and Paying Agent shall be the Company’s Affiliate, U- Haul International, Inc., a Nevada corporation, or its designee (in such capacity, “Servicer”).

Section 1.16           Non-Applicable Provisions .

The Notes will not (i) be convertible into and/or exchangeable for Common Stock or other securities or property, (ii) be issuable upon the exercise of warrants, or (iii) be guaranteed by any Person on the date of issuance.  The Company will not pay Additional Amounts on such Securities.

Grant of Security Interest .  As an inducement for the Holders to purchase the Notes, and to secure the complete and timely payment, performance and discharge in full, as the case m ay be, of all the Obligations with respect to any given sub-series of the Notes, the Pledgor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably pledges and grants to the Trustee, for the benefit of each Holder of each individual sub-series of the Notes that may be iss ued from time to time, and to the Trustee, a continuing security interest in and to, and a Lien against that portion of the Collateral identified in the applicable schedule hereto with respect to the applicable sub-series of the Notes for which such Holder is an investor.  The obligations of the Company with respect to each sub-series of the Notes will be initially secured by a first-priority lien, equally and ratably, on a specified pool of assets owned by Pledgor and identified on the applicable portion o f Exhibit A hereto.  As new sub-series of the Notes are issued, or as additional Notes are issued under any given sub-series of the Notes, new schedules hereto will be added, to identify the specific Units of Collateral being pledged under such sub-series or further issuance of the Notes.  The Units of Collateral securing one sub-series of the Notes or securing an additional issuance of the Notes under a given sub-series, shall not serve as Collateral for other sub-series of the Notes or other issuances of Notes under the same sub-series. Once $100 has been invested with us in notes in any series herein, we will grant to the Trustee for the benefit of the holders a lien on the Collateral selected by Company management as to be securing such series.    Notwith standing any provision hereof or any of the other Financing Documents, none of the Company, the Pledgor or the Trustee has any obligation to maintain and keep the Collateral in good condition, repair and working order or to replace lost, stolen, damaged or destroyed Collateral or Collateral taken through condemnation or deed in lieu of condemnation.  There shall be no obligation to repay the Notes with proceeds from any condemnation or deed in lieu of condemnation.  

No Recourse to Pledgor .  The Pledgor’s grant of the Lien against the Collateral secured the prompt and punctual payment of the Obligations, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, and is not merely a guaranty of collection from the Company.  The Pledgor has and shall have no p ersonal liability or obligation with respect to payment of the Obligations, which are payable solely by the Company.

Perfection of Security Interest .  Each Pledgor hereby authorizes the Company to file or cause the filing, from time to time, of financing s tatements and any other collateral documents as may be necessary or appropriate, without notice to the Pledgor, with all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect or protect the Trustee’s interest or rights hereunder.  Each Pledgor shall take all actions reason ably requested by the Company to perfect and to give notice of the Trustee’s Lien against the Collateral.  To the extent perfection of the Trustee’s interest or rights hereunder requires the modification of one or more certificates of title, if any, repres enting the Collateral, upon the request from time to time by the Trustee, the Pledgor shall provide the Trustee with a list of all


such certificates of title issued in electronic form by the relevant governmental department, as well as any applications for such certificates of title submitted with the relevant governmental department and such other information as the Pledgor has in its possession related to such certificates of title.

Release of Security Interest; Substitution of Collateral .  The Trustee’s Lien against any equipment or property constituting Collateral shall be automatically released upon (i) the sale or other disposition of such equipment or property to a buyer in the ordinary course of business, in accordance with Section 9-320 of the UCC, or (ii) a casualty loss of such equipment or property, provided that the Trustee’s Lien attaches to the Proceeds, if any, of such disposition or loss.  In addition, the Company shall have the right from time to time, so long as no Event of Default exists, to have the Trustee’s Lien against any equipment, property or Proceeds constituting Collateral released by the Trustee; provided that the Company causes one or more of the Pledgor, and/or any other third parties or Affiliates of the Company (each, an “ Addi tional Pledgor ”) to pledge, in replacement of such Collateral, other equipment or property with a value, as determined by the Company in its reasonable discretion, that is not less than the value of such Collateral at the time of substitution; and provided further that if an Additional Pledgor pledges any such equipment or property in replacement thereof, then the Company, such Additional Pledgor and the Trustee shall promptly enter into separate pledge and security agreement in substantially the form of th is Agreement, granting the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders, a first priority lien, equitably and ratably, in such equipment or property, on such terms and conditions set forth therein (each, a “ New Pledge and Security Agreement ”).  The Company shal l exercise such right by delivering to the Trustee an officers’ certificate in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “ Officers’ Certificate ”), which shall provide the Trustee with notice of the equipment, property or Proceeds constituting Collateral for which the Trustee’s Lien is requested to be released, and shall describe the equipment or property that is requested to replace such Collateral, and which shall certify that the Company has determined, in accordance with this Section 5, that the value of such equipment or property is not less than the value of the Collateral to be released from the Trustee’s Lien at the time of substitution.  The Trustee, within five (5) days of receipt of the Company’s Officer’s Certificate, shall provide the Company a nd the Pledgor with a written notice acknowledging the release and substitution of equipment or property as Collateral under this Agreement and/or as collateral under a New Pledge and Security Agreement, as applicable.  The Company shall have the right to amend Exhibit A to reflect each release of any such equipment or property as Collateral hereunder and each addition of equipment as Collateral hereunder pledged by the Pledgor, as applicable.  The Pledgor shall take all actions reasonably requested by the Trustee to evidence and to give effect to the addition of equipment or property as Collateral hereunder, as applicable.  The Company shall not be required to obtain any appraisal of equipment or property to be released from the Trustee’s Lien or to be adde d as Collateral hereunder and/or as collateral under a New Pledge and Security Agreement, in connection with the Company’s determination of the value of substitute equipment or property in accordance with this Section 5, and neither the Company nor the Ple dgor shall have any liability to the Trustee or the Holders if the value of such substitute equipment or property is subsequently determined to be less than the value of the Collateral released from the Trustee’s Lien in accordance with this Section 5.  Th e Company’s determination as to the value of substitute equipment or property as Collateral in accordance with this Section 5 shall be final and binding on the Trustee and the Holders, and the Trustee shall have no responsibility or liability to the Holder s or any other person with respect thereto.


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

Termination of Security Interest .  In addition to the provisions of Section 5 above, if this Agreement is terminated, the Trustee’s Lien in the Collateral with respect to any given sub-seri es of the Notes shall continue until the Obligations under such sub-series of the Notes are repaid in full.  Upon the crediting in full of the Obligations to each Holder’s U-Haul Investors Club account with respect to any given sub-series or any additional issuance of the Notes under any given sub-series, and the termination of such sub-series or additional issuance of the Notes and payment to the Trustee of all amounts due and owing to it, the Trustee shall, at the Pledgor’s sole cost and expense, release its Liens in the Collateral and all rights therein shall revert to the Pledgor. 

The Trustee’s Rights .  The Pledgor authorizes the Trustee, without giving notice to the Pledgor or obtaining the Pledgor’s consent and without affecting the Pledgor’s liabili ty for the Obligations to the extent described herein, from time to time, to:

compromise, settle, renew, extend the time for payment, change the manner or terms of payment, discharge the performance of, decline to enforce, or release all or any of the Obli gations; grant other indulgences to the Company in respect thereof; or modify in any manner any documents (other than this Agreement) relating to the Obligations, in each case (other than with respect to decisions not to enforce and to grant indulgences) i n accordance with Financing Documents;

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

The Pledgor shall notify the Trustee and the Company in writing promptly, but in no event more than two business days after the occurrence of an event which constitutes a breach of its obligations or dutie s under this Agreement. 

(e)   The Company covenants with the Trustee that it will notify the Trustee and the Pledgor in writing promptly of an event which constitutes an Event of Default. 

The Trustee’s and Holders’ Rights, Duties and Liabilities .

Each Holder, by acceptance of its Note, appoints the Trustee to act as its agent under this Agreement.  Each Holder hereby irrevocably authorizes the Trustee to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other documents relati ng to the Collateral (together with this Agreement, the “ Security Documents ”) and to exercise such powers and to perform such duties hereunder and thereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of the Trustee by the terms hereof and thereof and su ch other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto and the Trustee shall hold all Collateral, charges and collections received pursuant to this Agreement, for the ratable benefit of the Holders.  The Trustee may perform any of its duties hereunder by or through its agents or employees or a co-trustee.  As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement the Trustee shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and sh all be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required Holders, and such instructions shall be binding; provided , however , that the Trustee shall not be required to take any action which in the Trustee’s reason able discretion exposes it to liability or which is contrary to this Agreement, the Indenture or the other Security Documents or applicable law unless the Trustee is furnished with an indemnification by the Holders acceptable to the Trustee in its sole dis cretion with respect thereto and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any of the agents appointed with due care by the Trustee.  The Trustee shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement.  The Trustee shall not be under any obligation to any Holder to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any of the other Security Docum ents.  The Trustee shall not have by reason of this Agreement a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Holder; and nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon the Trustee any obligations in r espect of this Agreement except as expressly set forth herein.

The Pledgor assumes all responsibility and liability arising from or relating to the use, sale, license or other disposition of the Collateral.  The Obligations shall not be affected by any fai lure to take any steps to perfect the Trustee’s Liens or to collect or realize upon the Collateral, nor shall loss of or damage to the Collateral release the Company from any of the Obligations or the Pledgor from its obligations hereunder. 

The Pledgor s hall remain liable under each of its contracts and each of its licenses relating to the Collateral.  Neither the Trustee nor any Holder shall have any obligation or liability under any such contract or license by reason of or arising out of this Agreement.   Neither the Trustee nor any Holder shall be required or obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any of the Pledgor’s obligations under or pursuant to any such contract or license or to enforce any of the Pledgor’s rights under or pursuant to any co ntract or license.


In no event shall the Trustee or any Holder be responsible or liable for special, indirect, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

In acting hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to all of the rights, protections, privileges and immunities afforded to the Trustee under the Indenture, and all such rights, protections, privileges and immunities are incorporated by reference herein and shall inure to the benefit of the trustee herein.

No provision of this Agreement shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or any exercise of any rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is n ot reasonably assured to it and none of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall require the Trustee to perform or be responsible for the performance of any of the obligations of the Company or the Pledgor. 

The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any matter including without limitation any default or Event of Default or any breach by the Pledgor or the Company unless one of its Responsible Officers has actual knowledge thereof or written notice thereof is received by the trustee and such notice references this Agreement or the Indenture.

(h)   For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding anything herein or in the Indenture to the contrary, the Trustee shall only be liable to the extent of obligations specifically imposed upon and undertake n by the trustee as pledgee hereunder and the Trustee shall only be liable to the extent of its gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties hereunder. 

Remedies and Rights During Event of Default .

In addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it under this Agreement, the Indenture, and under any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to any of the Obligations, during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Trustee may exercise all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Pledgor expressly agrees that in any such event the Trustee or any agent acting on behalf of the Trustee, without demand of performance or other demand, adver tisement or notice of any kind (except the notice specified below of time and place of public or private sale) to or upon the Pledgor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, advertisements and notices are hereby expressly waived to the maximum extent permitted by the UCC and other applicable law), may forthwith enter upon the premises of the Pledgor where any Collateral is located through self-help, without judicial process, without first obtaining a final judgment or giving the Pledgor or any o ther Person notice and opportunity for a hearing on the Trustee’s claim or action and may collect, receive, assemble, process, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and may forthwith sell, lease, license, assign, give an option or options to purchase, or sell or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral (or contract to do so), or any part thereof, in one or more parcels at a public or private sale or sales, at any exchange at such prices as it may deem acceptable, for cash or on credit or for future delivery


without assumption of any credit risk.  The Trustee or any Holder shall have the right but not the obligation upon any such public sale or sales and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, t o purchase for the benefit of the Trustee and Holders, the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption, which equity of redemption the Pledgor hereby releases.  Such sales may be adjourned and continued from time to time with or without notice.  The Trustee shall have the right to conduct such sales on the Pledgor’s premises or elsewhere and shall have the right to use the Pledgor’s premises without charge for such time or times as the Trustee reasonably deems nece ssary or advisable.

The Pledgor further agrees, at the Trustee’s request, to provide such information as may be needed to enable the Trustee to assemble the Collateral and, to the extent required by the UCC, to make it available to the Trustee at a place o r places designated by the Trustee which are reasonably convenient to the Trustee and the Pledgor, whether at the Pledgor’s premises or elsewhere.  Until the Trustee is able to effect a sale, lease, or other disposition of Collateral, the Trustee shall hav e the right to hold or use Collateral, or any part thereof, to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving the Collateral or its value or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by the Trustee.  The Trustee shall have no obligation to the Pledgor to maintain or preserve the rights of the Pledgor as against third parties with respect to Collateral while Collateral is in the Trustee’s possession.  The Trustee may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take po ssession of Collateral and to enforce any of the Trustee’s remedies (for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders), with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment.  The Trustee shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale to the Obligations as provided herein and in the Indenture, and only after so paying over such net proceeds, and after the payment by the Trustee of any other amount required by any pro vision of law, need the Trustee account for the surplus, if any, to the Pledgor.  To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Pledgor waives all claims, damages, and demands against the Trustee or any Holder arising out of the repossession, rete ntion or sale of the Collateral except such as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final nonappealable judgment to have resulted primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Trustee or such Holder.  The Pledgor agrees t hat ten (10) days’ prior written notice by the Trustee of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which a private sale may take place is reasonable notification of such matters.  The Company shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all Obligations, including any reasonable attorneys’ fees or other out-of-pocket expenses actually incurred by the Trustee or any Holder to collect such deficiency.

Except as ot herwise specifically provided herein, the Pledgor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Agreement or any Collateral.

To the extent that applicable la w imposes duties on the Trustee to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, the Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for the Trustee (i) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by the Truste e to prepare Collateral for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or dis position of Collateral


to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collater al is of a specialized nature, (v) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as the Pledgor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral, (vi) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, (vii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of a ssets, (viii) to dispose of Collateral  in wholesale rather than retail markets, (ix) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (x) to purchase insurance to insure the Trustee against risks of loss, collection or dis position of Collateral or to provide to the Trustee a guaranteed return from the disposition of Collateral, or (xi) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Trustee, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professi onals to assist the Trustee in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral.  The Pledgor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 13(d) is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Trustee would not be commer cially unreasonable in the Trustee’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Trustee shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 13(d).  Without limit ation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 13(d) shall be construed to grant any rights to the Pledgor or to impose any duties on the Trustee that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section   13(d).

(e)   Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Trustee shall not be required to obtain title to any Collateral that constitutes real property as a result of or in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise acquire possession of, or take any other action with respect to, any such Collateral if, as a result of any such action, the Trustee for itself or on behalf of the Holders would be considered to hold title to, to be a “mortgagee-in-possession” of , or to be an “owner” or “operator” of such Collateral within the meaning of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended from time to time, or any comparable law, unless the Trustee has previously determined based on its reasonable judgment and a report prepared by an independent Person who regularly conducts environmental audits using customary industry standards, that:

(i)   such Collateral is in compliance with applicable environmental laws or, if not, tha t it would be in the best economic interest of the Holders to take such actions as are necessary to bring the Collateral into compliance therewith; and

(ii)   there are no circumstances present at such Collateral relating to the use, management or disposal of any hazardous substances, hazardous materials, hazardous wastes, or petroleum-based materials for which  investigation, testing, monitoring, containment, clean-up or remediation could be required under any federal, state or local law or regulation, or that if any such materials are present for which such action could be required, that it would be in the best economic interest of the Holders to take such actions with respect to the affected Collateral.


The cost of the environmental audit report contempla ted by this Section shall be advanced by the Company.

During the continuance of an Event of Default, if the Trustee determines that it is in the best economic interest of the Holders to take such actions as are necessary to bring any such Collateral into c ompliance with applicable environmental laws, or to take such action with respect to the containment, clean-up or remediation of hazardous substances, hazardous materials, hazardous wastes, or petroleum-based materials affecting any such Collateral, then t he Trustee shall take such action as it deems to be in the best economic interest of the Holders.  The cost of any such compliance, containment, cleanup or remediation shall be advanced by the Company.

 

Power of Attorney .  The Pledgor hereby irrevocably ap points the Trustee as its lawful attorney-in-fact, exercisable during the continuance of an Event of Default, to: (a) make, settle, and adjust all claims under the Pledgor’s insurance policies with respect to the Collateral, if any; (b) pay, contest or set tle any Lien or adverse claim in or to the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge the same; and (c) transfer the Collateral into the name of the Trustee or a third party as the UCC permits.  The Pl edgor hereby appoints the Company as its lawful attorney-in-fact to sign the Pledgor’s name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of any security interest regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred until all Obligatio ns have been satisfied in full, in cash, and the Notes have terminated.  The Company’s foregoing appointment as the Pledgor’s attorney in fact, and all of the Company’s rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations have been satisfied in full, in cash and the Notes have terminated.

Cost and Expenses; Indemnification .

The Company agrees to pay to the Trustee, for its benefit, on demand, (i) all fees, costs and expenses that the Trustee pays or incurs as provided in that fee letter dated January 26, 2011 between the Company and the Trustee, as the same may be amended from time to time; and (ii) sums paid or incurred to pay any amount or take any action required of the Pledgor under this Agreement that the Pledgor fails to pay or take; and (iii) costs and expenses of preserving and protecting the Collateral or taking any other action contemplated or required by this Agreement or the other Security Documents.  The foregoing shall not be construed to limit any other directly c ontrary provisions of this Agreement regarding costs and expenses to be paid by the Pledgor or the Company.

(b)   The Company will save, indemnify and keep the Trustee, and the Trustee’s officers, employees, directors and agents, and the Holders harmless f rom and against all expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), loss, claim, liability or damage arising out of their actions or inaction hereunder or in connection with the Collateral, the Indenture or any Security Document, except to the extent such expense, loss, claim, liability or damage is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Trustee or the Holders as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.  This Section 15(b) shall be expressly construed to include, but not be limited to, such indemnities, compensation, expenses,


disbursements, advances, losses, liabilities, damages and the like, as may pertain or relat e to any environmental law or environmental matter.

 

The benefits of this Section 15 shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the removal or resignation of the Trustee.

Limitation on the Trustee’s and the Holders’ Duties with Respect to the Colla teral .

Neither the Trustee nor any Holder shall have any other duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or nominee of the Trustee or such Holder.

The Trustee shall not be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any security interest in the Collateral.  The Trustee shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property and shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the val ue of any of the Collateral, by reason of the act or omission of any agent or bailee selected by the Trustee in good faith.

The Trustee shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfectio n, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of the Pledgor to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral.

The Pledgor bears all risk of loss for damage or destruction of the Collateral.

No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative .  The Trustee’s failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by the Pledgor of any provision of this Agreement or any other Financing Documen t shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of the Trustee thereafter to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith.  No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by the Trustee and then is only effective for the specific i nstance and purpose for which it is given.  The Trustee’s rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Financing Documents are cumulative.  The Trustee has all rights and remedies provided under the UCC, by law, or in equity.  The Trustee’s exerc ise of one right or remedy is not an election, and the Trustee’s waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver.  The Trustee’s delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence.

Marshaling of Assets .  The Trustee shall b e under no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of Pledgor, the Company or any other Person liable for the Obligations or against or in payment of any Obligations.

Independent Obligations .  This Agreement is independent of the Company’s obligations un der the Financing Documents.  The Trustee may bring a separate action to enforce the


provisions hereof against the Pledgor without taking action against the Company or any other Person or joining the Company or any other Person as a party to such action.

T erm; Revival

This Agreement is irrevocable by the Pledgor.  It shall terminate only upon the full satisfaction of the Obligations and termination of the Notes.  If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Pledgor shall have any nonwaivable right under applic able law or otherwise to terminate or revoke this Agreement, the Pledgor agrees that such termination or revocation shall not be effective until the Trustee receives written notice of such termination or revocation.  Such notice shall not affect the Truste e’s right and power to enforce rights arising prior to receipt thereof.   

The Pledgor’s pledge hereunder of the Collateral shall be reinstated and revived, and the Trustee’s rights shall continue, if at any time payment and performance of the Obligations , or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though suc h payment or performance had not been made.  If any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or return ed.

Notices .  Except as otherwise provided herein, whenever it is provided herein that any notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall or may be given to or served upon any of the parties by any other party, or when ever any of the parties desire to give and serve upon the other party any communication with respect to this Agreement, each such notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall be in writing and, in the case of the Com pany and the Trustee, shall be given in the manner, and deemed received, as provided for in the Indenture and in the case of the Pledgor shall be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Pledgor’s Treasurer at the address of its principal office specifi ed below its signature block herein or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Pledgor.

Miscellaneous .

(a)   Arbitration .  In the event that the Company or the Pledgor, on the one hand, and one or more of the Holders, or the Trustee as pledgee on behalf of one or more of the Holders, on the other hand, are unable to resolve any dispute, claim or controversy between them (“D ispute”) related to this Agreement, such parties agree to submit the Dispute to binding arbitration in accordance with the following terms:

(i)   Any party in its reasonable discretion may give written notice to the other applicable parties that the Disput e be submitted to arbitration for final resolution.  Within fifteen (15) calendar days after receipt of such notice, the receiving parties shall submit a written response.  If the Dispute remains following the exchange of the written notice and response, t he parties involved in the Dispute shall mutually select one arbitrator within fifteen (15) calendar days of receipt of the response and shall submit the matter to that arbitrator to be

(ii)                  The Company, the Pledgor, Trustee and each of the Holders agree that jud gment upon any award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in the courts of the State of Arizona or in the United States District Courts located in Arizona.  Such court may enforce the provisions of this Section 22(a)(ii), and the party seeking enforce ment shall be entitled to an award of all costs and fees, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, to be paid by the party against whom enforcement is ordered.  The parties involved in a Dispute may terminate any arbitration proceeding by mutually resolving a ny Dispute prior to the issuance of a final arbitration ruling pursuant to this Section 22(a).

(iii)   For the avoidance of doubt, where a dispute arises related to this Pledge and Security Agreement between (x) the Trustee and the Company or the Pledgor, (y) the Trustee and one or more of the Holders, or (z) the Trustee and any third party , then in no event will the arbitration provisions set forth in this Section 22 apply to such dispute.

 

No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies .  Neither the Trustee nor any Hold er shall by any act, delay or omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder, and no waiver shall be valid unless in writing, signed by the Trustee and then only to the extent therein set forth.  A waiver by the Trus tee of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Trustee would otherwise have had on any future occasion.  No failure to exercise nor any delay in exercising on the part of the Truste e or any Holder, any right, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other righ t, power or privilege.  The rights and remedies hereunder provided are cumulative and may be exercised singly or concurrently, and are not exclusive of any rights and remedies provided by law. 

Limitation by Law .  All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Agreement may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable


provision of law, and all the provisions of this Agreement are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they shall not render this Agreement invalid, unenforceable, in whole or in part, or not entitled to be recorded, registered or filed under the provisions of any applicable law.

Successor Person Substituted for the Pledgor .  Upon any consolidation by the Pledgor with or merger of the Pledgor into any other Person or any sale, assignment, transfer, lease or conveyance of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Pledgor to any Person in accordance with Section 801 of the Base Indenture, the successor Person formed by such consolidation or into wh ich the Pledgor is merged or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease or other conveyance is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Pledgor under this Agreement with the same effect as if such s uccessor Person had been named as the Pledgor herein; and thereafter the predecessor Person shall be released from all obligations and covenants under this Agreement.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

I am Secretary of AMERCO, a Nevada corporation (the “ Company ”), and have served as counsel to the Company in connection with the registration under the Securities Act of 1933 , as amended (the “ Act ”) , of the Company’s $13,469,000 the Fixed Rate Secured Notes Series UIC-14C, 15C, 16C, 17C, 18C, 19C, 20C, 21C, 22C and 23C (the “ Series UIC-14C, 15C, 16C, 17C, 18C, 19C, 20C, 21C, 22C and 23C Notes ”) .  As the Company’s counsel, I have examined such corporate records, certificates and other documents, and such questions of law, as I have considered necessary or appropriate for the purposes of this opinion.

Upon the basis of such examination, I advise you that, in my opinion, the Series UIC-14C, 15C, 16C, 17C, 18C, 19C, 20C, 21C, 22C and 23C Notes constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and simila r laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles.

The foregoing opinion is limited to the laws of the State s of Nevada and New York , and I am expressing no opinion as to the effect of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

I have relied as to certain factual matters on information obtained from public officials, officers of the Company and other sources believed by me to be responsible, and I have assumed that the Base Indenture dated February 14, 201 1 (the “ Base Indenture ”) by and between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “ Trustee ”), the Twenty-Third Supplemental Indenture dated November 26, 2013 by and between the Company and the Trustee (which amended and supplemented t he Base Indenture) under which the Series UIC-14C, 15C, 16C, 17C, 18C, 19C, 20C, 21C, 22C and 23C Notes were issued have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Trustee thereunder.

I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K to be incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement on Form S-3, as amended, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 7, 2010 (File No. 333-169832) (the “ Registration Statement ”) and to all refe rences to me, if any, included in or made a part of the Registration Statement.  In giving such consent, I do not thereby admit that I am in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section   7 of the Act.

Very truly yours,
