(ii) The Company has an authorized capitalization as set forth in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus and all of the issued shares of capital stock of the Company have been duly and validly authorized and issued and are fully paid and non-assessable; (iii) To the best of such counsel’s knowledge and other than as set forth or incorporated by reference in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, there are no legal or governmental proceedings pending to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or of which any property of the Company or any of its subsidiaries is the subject which, if determined adversely to the Company or any of its subsidiaries, would reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, shareholders’ equity or results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole; and, to the best of such counsel’s knowledge, no such proceedings are threatened or contemplated by governmental authorities or threatened by others; (iv) This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company; (v) The Bonds have been duly authorized, executed, authenticated, issued and delivered by the Company and the Bonds and the Indenture conform to the descriptions thereof in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus; (vi) The Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company; and the Indenture has been duly qualified under the Trust Indenture Act; (vii) The Company and its subsidiaries hold all franchises, certificates of public convenience and necessity, permits, licenses and easements necessary to own, operate and maintain their properties as described in the Prospectus except to the extent that such failure, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, shareholders’ equity or results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole; (viii) The Base Indenture and each Supplemental Indenture has been duly recorded (or arrangements have been made for the prompt recording) in all offices of county recorders or clerks of all counties in the State of California and the State of Arizona in which any real property subject to the lien of the Indenture is located and appropriate financing statements in respect of personal property and fixtures have been filed in the Office of the Secretary of State of the State of California and the Office of the Secretary of State of the State of Arizona and no other filing or recordation is necessary for the perfection and preservation of the lien created thereby except for recordations required in respect of after-acquired real property; (ix) The Indenture constitutes, as security for the Bonds, a valid and subsisting first lien to the extent that it purports to be such on all the present properties of the Company (including plants, machinery, equipment, real estate and fixed property described above), rights and franchises of the Company (other than those properties excepted or released from the lien of the Indenture by its terms) subject only to Permissible Encumbrances and other liens and charges permitted by the Indenture and such liens, charges and encumbrances, defects, qualifications, exceptions and other matters as are set forth or referred to in the Prospectus, or which do not, in such counsel’s opinion, materially affect the security for the Bonds, and upon acquisition thereafter by the Company of similar properties the Indenture will, subject to liens existing thereon at the time of acquisition, create such lien thereon; (x) The issue and sale of the Bonds and the compliance by the Company with all of the provisions of the Bonds, the Indenture and this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions herein and therein contemplated will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any material contract, indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, note, lease or other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound or to which any of its material properties or assets is subject, nor will such actions result in any violation of the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company or any statute or any order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its material properties; (xi) No consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its material properties is required for the issuance and sale of the Bonds or the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Indenture, except such as have been obtained under the Act, the Trust Indenture Act and from the Public Utilities Commission of the State of California and such consents, approvals, authorizations, orders, registrations or qualifications as may be required under state securities or Blue Sky laws in connection with the purchase and distribution of the Bonds by the Underwriters;

(xiii) The statements set forth in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus as amended or supplemented under the captions “Description of First Mortgage Bonds” and “Supplemental Description of First Mortgage Bonds,” insofar as they purport to constitute a summary of the terms of the Bonds or the Indenture, and under the captions “Plan of Distribution” and “Underwriting,” insofar as they purport to describe the provisions of the laws and documents referred to therein, are accurate and fair in all material respects; (xiv) The Company is not, and after giving effect to the offering and sale of the Bonds, will not be, an “investment company,” as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act; (xv) The documents incorporated by reference in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus as amended or supplemented (other than the financial statements and related schedules therein, as to which such counsel need express no opinion), when they became effective or were filed with the Commission, as the case may be, complied as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the Act or the Exchange Act, as applicable, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, and such counsel has no reason to believe that any of such documents, when they became effective or were so filed, as the case may be, contained, in the case of a registration statement which became effective under the Act, an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or, in the case of other documents which were filed under the Act or the Exchange Act with the Commission, an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made when such documents were so filed, not misleading; it being understood that such counsel expresses no belief with respect to the financial statements or schedules or other financial data included or incorporated by reference in, or omitted from, the Prospectus as amended or supplemented; and (xvi) The Registration Statement and the Prospectus as amended or supplemented and any further amendments and supplements thereto made by the Company prior to the Time of Delivery (in each case, excluding the documents incorporated by reference therein) comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements for registration statements on Form S-3 under the Act, and the requirements under the Trust Indenture Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, it being understood, however, that such counsel expresses no opinion with respect to Regulation S-T or the financial statements, schedules or other financial data included or incorporated by reference in, or omitted from, the Registration Statement or the Prospectus as amended or supplemented or with respect to any Form T-1. In passing upon the compliance as to the form of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as amended or supplemented (in each case, excluding the documents incorporated by reference therein), except for those statements referred to in the opinion in subsection (xiii) of this Section 7(c), such counsel has assumed that the statements made and incorporated by reference therein are correct and complete.
