The court affirmed the earlier award of indemnity costs for the whole proceedings but held indemnity costs mean actual costs reasonably incurred; it rejected defendants' attempt to confine recovery to a notional trustees' proceeding, made limited specific deductions for items incorrectly charged, found the remainder of the costs fell within a reasonable range given complexity and importance, and fixed indemnity costs at $117,088.37 to be payable out of the trust fund.
