(c) by action or proceeding, require the corporation to account as if it were the trustee of an express trust for the holders of such bonds;

(d) by action or proceeding, enjoin any acts or things which may be unlawful or in violation of the rights of the holders of such bonds; and

Such trustee shall, in addition to the foregoing, have and possess all of the powers necessary or appropriate for the exercise of any functions specifically set forth in this title or incident to the general representation of bondholders in the enforcement and protection of such bondholders' rights. 4.

Before declaring the principal of bonds due and payable, the trustee shall first give thirty days' notice in writing to the corporation. 6. Any such trustee, whether or not the issue of bonds represented by such trustee has been declared due and payable, shall be entitled, as of right, to the appointment of any receiver of any part or parts of the project, the revenues of which are pledged for the security of the bonds of such issue, and such receiver may enter and take possession of such part or parts of the project and, subject to any pledge or agreement with the holders of such bonds, shall take possession of all monies and other property derived from such part or parts of the project and proceed with any construction thereon or the acquisition of any property, real or personal, in connection therewith that the corporation is under obligation to do, and to operate, maintain, and reconstruct such part or parts of the project and collect and receive all revenues thereafter arising therefrom, subject to any pledge or agreement with bondholders relating thereto, and perform the public duties and carry out the agreements and obligations of the corporation under the direction of the court. In any suit, action, or proceeding by the trustee, the fees, counsel fees, and expenses of the trustee and of the receiver, if any, shall constitute taxable disbursements, and all costs and disbursements, allowed by the court shall be a first charge on any revenues derived from the properties.
