Sec. 77rrr. Effect of prescribed indenture provisions


(a) Imposed duties to control

    If any provision of the indenture to be qualified limits, qualifies, 
or conflicts with the duties imposed by operation of subsection (c) of 
this section, the imposed duties shall control.

(b) Additional provisions

    The indenture to be qualified may contain, in addition to provisions 
specifically authorized under this subchapter to be included therein, 
any other provisions the inclusion of which is not in contravention of 
any provision of this subchapter.

(c) Provisions governing qualified indentures

    The provisions of sections 77jjj to and including 77qqq of this 
title that impose duties on any person (including provisions 
automatically deemed included in an indenture unless the indenture 
provides that such provisions are excluded) are a part of and govern 
every qualified indenture, whether or not physically contained therein, 
shall be deemed retroactively to govern each indenture heretofore 
qualified, and prospectively to govern each indenture hereafter 
qualified under this subchapter and shall be deemed retroactively to 
amend and supersede inconsistent provisions in each such indenture 
heretofore qualified. The foregoing provisions of this subsection shall 
not be deemed to effect the inclusion (by retroactive amendment or 
otherwise) in the text of any indenture heretofore qualified of any of 
the optional provisions contemplated by section 77jjj(b)(1), 77kkk(b), 
77nnn(d), 77ooo(a), 77ooo(b), 77ooo(d), 77ooo(e), or 77ppp(a)(1) of this 
title.
