AMERCO also hereby requests a copy of the written order verifying the effective date.
AMERCO hereby acknowledges that:
· should the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, declare the filing effective, it does not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing;
· the action of the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, in declaring the filing effective, does not relieve AMERCO from its full responsibility for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing; and
· AMERCO may not assert the declaration of effectiveness as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States.
