AND IT IS HEREBY COVENANTED by the Company that all the terms,
conditions, provisos, covenants and provisions contained in the Mortgage, as

described and conveyed and to the estate, rights, obligations and duties of the
Company and the Trustees and the beneficiaries of the trust with respect to said

specifically and at length described in and conveyed to the Trustees by the
Mortgage as a part of the property therein stated to be conveyed.
The Company further covenants and agrees to and with the Trustees and
their successor or successors in such trust under the Mortgage as follows:
8
ARTICLE I
SEVENTY-FIRST SERIES OF BONDS
Section 1.(A)(I) There shall be a series of bonds designated "Pollution
Control Series N" (herein sometimes referred to as the "Seventy-first Series"),
each of which shall also bear the descriptive title "First Mortgage Bond," and
the form thereof, which shall be established by Resolution of the Board of
Directors of the Company, shall contain suitable provisions with respect to the
matters hereinafter in this Section specified. Bonds of the Seventy-first Series
shall be dated as in Section 10 of the Mortgage provided, and mature on November
1, 2018.
Bonds of the Seventy-first Series shall be issued as fully registered
bonds in denominations of Five Thousand Dollars and, at the option of the
Company, in any multiple or multiples of Five Thousand Dollars (the exercise of
such option to be evidenced by the execution and delivery thereof); they shall
bear interest on each portion thereof corresponding to particular Pollution
Control Revenue Refunding Bonds (Carolina Power & Light Company Project), 2000
Series A (the "Wake Bonds") issued by The Wake County Industrial Facilities and
Pollution Control Financing Authority (the "Wake Authority") under the Trust
Indenture, dated as of June 1, 2000 (the "Wake Indenture"), between the Wake
Authority and First Union National Bank, as trustee (the "Wake Trustee," which
term includes any successor trustee under the Wake Indenture), from the last
Interest Payment Date (as such term is defined in the Wake Indenture (each a
"Wake Interest Payment Date")) to which interest on the corresponding Wake Bonds
has been paid or, if no interest has been paid on the corresponding Wake Bonds,
then from the date of first authentication by the Corporate Trustee of bonds of
the Seventy-first Series at the rate from time to time borne by the
corresponding Wake Bonds; provided, however, that in no event shall the rate of
interest borne by the bonds of the Seventy-first Series exceed 18% per annum.
Interest on the bonds of the Seventy-first Series shall be payable on each Wake
Interest Payment Date for the corresponding Wake Bonds and at maturity. The
principal of, premium, if any, and interest on each said bond shall be payable
at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of
New York, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the
time of payment is legal tender for public and private debts.
(II) The bonds of the Seventy-first Series shall be initially issued in
the aggregate principal amount of $67,300,000 to, and registered in the name of,
the Wake Trustee in order to secure the obligation of the Company to repay loans
of the proceeds of the sale of the Wake Bonds made by the Wake Authority to the
Company pursuant to the Loan Agreement, dated as of June 1, 2000 (the "Wake Loan
Agreement"), to finance costs of refunding the outstanding $67,300,000 Pollution
Control Revenue Bonds (Carolina Power & Light Company Project) Series 1985A.
The Company's obligation to make payments with respect to the principal
of, premium, if any, and interest on the bonds of the Seventy-first Series shall
be fully or partially satisfied and discharged to the extent that, at the time
any such payment shall be due, the corresponding amount then due of principal
of, and/or premium, if any, and interest on the Wake Bonds, issued
contemporaneously herewith, shall have been fully or partially paid (other than
by the application of the proceeds of a payment in respect of the bonds of the
Seventy-first Series or of payments made under the Policy (as such term is
defined in the Wake Indenture) (the "Wake Policy")), as the case may be, or
there shall have been deposited with the Wake Trustee pursuant to the Wake
Indenture trust funds sufficient under the Wake Indenture to pay fully or
partially, as the case may be, the corresponding amount then due of principal
of, and/or premium, if any, and/or interest on, the Wake Bonds (other than by
the application of the proceeds of a payment in respect of the bonds of the
Seventy-first Series or of payments made under the Wake Policy).
Upon payment of the principal of, premium if any, and interest due on
the Wake Bonds, whether at maturity or prior to maturity by acceleration,
redemption or otherwise, or upon provision for the payment thereof having been
made in accordance with the Wake Indenture (other than by the application of the
proceeds of a payment in respect of the bonds of the Seventy-first Series or of
payments made under the Wake Policy), bonds of the Seventy-first Series in a
principal amount equal to the principal amount of Wake Bonds so paid or for
which such provision for payment has been made shall be deemed fully paid,
satisfied and discharged, and the obligations of the Company thereunder shall be
terminated and the bonds of the Seventy-first Series shall be surrendered to the
Corporate Trustee and canceled by the Corporate Trustee in accordance with
Section 56 of the Mortgage, except as otherwise provided in the Wake Indenture.
9
From and after the Release Date (as defined in the Wake Indenture (the
"Wake Release Date")), and upon delivery to the Wake Trustee of the documents
provided for in Section 4.01(a)(iii) of the Wake Loan Agreement, the bonds of
the Seventy-first Series shall be deemed fully paid, satisfied and discharged,
the obligation of the Company thereunder shall be terminated, and the bonds of
the Seventy-first Series shall be surrendered to the Corporate Trustee and
canceled by the Corporate Trustee in accordance with Section 56 of the Mortgage.
The Corporate Trustee may conclusively presume that the obligation of
the Company to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the bonds
of the Seventy-first Series as the same shall become due and payable shall have
been fully satisfied and discharged unless and until it shall have received a
written notice from the Wake Trustee, signed by its President, a Vice President
or a Trust Officer, stating that the corresponding payment of principal of, or
premium, if any, or interest on the Wake Bonds has become due and payable and
has not been fully paid and, with respect to principal and premium, if any, of
the Wake Bonds, specifying the principal of, and premium, if any, on the Wake
Bonds then due and payable and the amount of funds required to make such
payment, and, with respect to interest on the Wake Bonds, specifying the last
date to which interest has been paid, the applicable rate of interest and the
amount of funds required to make such payment.
(III) In the event that any Wake Bonds are to be redeemed pursuant to
the Wake Indenture, bonds of the Seventy-first Series, in a principal amount
equal to the principal amount of Wake Bonds so to be redeemed, shall be redeemed
by the Company, on the date fixed for redemption of such Wake Bonds, at the
principal amount thereof plus accrued interest to such redemption date and,
should any of the Wake Bonds so to be redeemed be redeemable at a price that
includes a redemption premium, together, in the case of the corresponding bonds
of the Seventy-first Series, with premium in an amount equal to such redemption
premium on such Wake Bonds.
In the event that the principal of the Wake Bonds shall have been
declared by the Wake Trustee to be due and payable pursuant to Section 12.03(1)
of the Wake Indenture, the bonds of the Seventy-first Series then Outstanding
shall be redeemed by the Company, immediately and on the same date as the Wake
Bonds thereby become so due and payable, at the principal amount thereof plus
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of their payment, together with
premium in an amount equal to any premium due and payable in respect of the Wake
Bonds (whether as a component of Purchase Price (as defined in the Wake
Indenture) or otherwise); provided, however, that if such declaration and its
consequences in respect of the Wake bonds shall have been rescinded and annulled
in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.03(2) of the Wake Indenture, the
Company shall not be required so to redeem any bonds of the Seventy-first
Series.
The Corporate Trustee may conclusively presume that no redemption of
bonds of the Seventy-first Series is required pursuant to this subsection (III)
unless and until it shall have received a written notice from the Wake Trustee,
signed by its President, a Vice President or a Trust Officer, stating that the
Wake Bonds are to be redeemed pursuant to the Wake Indenture or stating that the
principal of the Wake Bonds has been declared by the Wake Trustee to be due and
payable pursuant to Section 12.03(1) of the Wake Indenture, as the case may be,
and specifying the principal amount and premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, and redemption date of the Wake Bonds to be so redeemed. Said
notice shall also contain a waiver of notice of said redemption by the Wake
Trustee, as holder of all the bonds of the Seventy-first Series then
Outstanding.
Bonds of the Seventy-first Series shall not be redeemable at the option
of the Company except as provided in this subsection (III).
(IV) The Company hereby waives its right to have any notice of
redemption pursuant to subsection (III) of this Section 1(A) state that such
notice is subject to the receipt of the redemption moneys by the Corporate
Trustee before the date fixed for redemption. Notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 52 of the Mortgage, any such notice under such subsection shall not be
conditional.
(V) The bonds of the Seventy-first Series shall not be transferable
except as required to effect an assignment to a successor trustee under the Wake
Indenture or a nominee of such trustee, any such transfer to be made at the
office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New
York.
10
At the option of the registered owner, any bonds of the Seventy-first
Series, upon surrender thereof for cancellation at the office or agency of the
Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, are exchangeable for
a like aggregate principal amount of bonds of the same series of other
authorized denominations. The bonds of the Seventy-first Series may bear such
legends as may be necessary to comply with any law or with any rules or
regulations made pursuant thereto or with the rules or regulations of any stock
exchange or to conform to usage or agreement with respect thereto.
Upon any exchange or transfer of bonds of the Seventy-first Series, the
Company may make a charge therefor sufficient to reimburse it for any tax or
taxes or other governmental charge required to be paid by the Company, as
provided in Section 12 of the Mortgage, but the Company hereby waives any right
to make a charge in addition thereto for any exchange or transfer of bonds of
said Series.
(VI) The Company covenants and agrees that, prior to the Wake Release
Date, it will not take any action that would cause the outstanding principal
amount of the bonds of the Seventy-first Series to be less than the then
outstanding principal amount of the Wake Bonds.
SEVENTY-SECOND SERIES OF BONDS
(B)(I) There shall be a series of bonds designated "Pollution Control
Series O" (herein sometimes referred to as the "Seventy-second Series"), each of
which shall also bear the descriptive title "First Mortgage Bond," and the form
thereof, which shall be established by Resolution of the Board of Directors of
the Company, shall contain suitable provisions with respect to the matters
hereinafter in this Section specified. Bonds of the Seventy-second Series shall
be dated as in Section 10 of the Mortgage provided, and mature on November 1,
2018.
Bonds of the Seventy-second Series shall be issued as fully registered
bonds in denominations of Five Thousand Dollars and, at the option of the
Company, in any multiple or multiples of Five Thousand Dollars (the exercise of
such option to be evidenced by the execution and delivery thereof); they shall
bear interest on each portion thereof corresponding to particular Pollution
Control Revenue Refunding Bonds (Carolina Power & Light Company Project), 2000
Series A (the "Person Bonds") issued by The Person County Industrial Facilities
and Pollution Control Financing Authority (the "Person Authority") under the
Trust Indenture, dated as of June 1, 2000 (the "Person Indenture"), between the
Person Authority and First Union National Bank, as trustee (the "Person
Trustee," which term includes any successor trustee under the Person Indenture),
from the last Interest Payment Date (as such term is defined in the Person
Indenture (each a "Person Interest Payment Date")) to which interest on the
corresponding Person Bonds has been paid or, if no interest has been paid on the
corresponding Person Bonds, then from the date of first authentication by the
Corporate Trustee of bonds of the Seventy-second Series at the rate from time to
time borne by the corresponding Person Bonds; provided, however, that in no
event shall the rate of interest borne by the bonds of the Seventy-second Series
exceed 18% per annum. Interest on the bonds of the Seventy-second Series shall
be payable on each Person Interest Payment Date for the corresponding Person
Bonds and at maturity. The principal of, premium, if any, and interest on each
said bond shall be payable at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough
of Manhattan, The City of New York, in such coin or currency of the United
States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for public and

in the aggregate principal amount of $55,640,000 to, and registered in the name
of, the Person Trustee in order to secure the obligation of the Company to repay
loans of the proceeds of the sale of the Person Bonds made by the Person
Authority to the Company pursuant to the Loan Agreement, dated as of June 1,
2000 (the "Person Loan Agreement"), to finance costs of refunding the
outstanding $55,640,000 Pollution Control Revenue Refunding Bonds (Carolina
Power & Light Company Projects) Series 1992A.
The Company's obligation to make payments with respect to the principal
of, premium, if any, and interest on the bonds of the Seventy-second Series
shall be fully or partially satisfied and discharged to the extent that, at the
time any such payment shall be due, the corresponding amount then due of
principal of, and/or premium, if any, and/or interest then due on the Person
Bonds, issued contemporaneously herewith, shall have been fully or partially
paid (other than by the application of the proceeds of a payment in respect of
the bonds of the Seventy-second Series or of payments made under the Policy (as
such term is defined in the Person Indenture) (the "Person Policy")), as the
case may be, or
11
there shall have been deposited with the Person Indenture Trustee pursuant to
the Person Indenture trust funds sufficient under the Person Indenture to pay
fully or partially, as the case may be, the corresponding amount then due of
principal of, and/or premium, if any, and/or interest on, the Person Bonds
(other than by the application of the proceeds of a payment in respect of the
bonds of the Seventy-second Series or of payments made under the Person Policy).
Upon payment of the principal of, premium if any, and interest due on
the Person Bonds, whether at maturity or prior to maturity by acceleration,
redemption or otherwise, or upon provision for the payment thereof having been
made in accordance with the Person Indenture (other than by the application of
the proceeds of a payment in respect of the bonds of the Seventy-second Series
or of payments made under the Person Policy), bonds of the Seventy-second Series
in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of Person Bonds so paid or
for which such provision for payment has been made shall be deemed fully paid,
satisfied and discharged, and the obligations of the Company thereunder shall be
terminated and the bonds of the Seventy-second Series shall be surrendered to
the Corporate Trustee and canceled by the Corporate Trustee in accordance with
Section 56 of the Mortgage, except as otherwise provided in the Person
Indenture.
From and after the Release Date (as defined in the Person Indenture
(the "Person Release Date")), and upon delivery to the Person Trustee of the
documents provided for in Section 4.01(a)(iii) of the Person Loan Agreement, the
bonds of the Seventy-second Series shall be deemed fully paid, satisfied and
discharged, the obligation of the Company thereunder shall be terminated, and
the bonds of the Seventy-second Series shall be surrendered to the Corporate
Trustee and canceled by the Corporate Trustee in accordance with Section 56 of
the Mortgage.
The Corporate Trustee may conclusively presume that the obligation of
the Company to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the bonds
of the Seventy-second Series as the same shall become due and payable shall have
been fully satisfied and discharged unless and until it shall have received a
written notice from the Person Trustee, signed by its President, a Vice
President or a Trust Officer, stating that the corresponding payment of
principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on the Person Bonds has become due
and payable and has not been fully paid and, with respect to principal and
premium, if any, of the Person Bonds, specifying the principal of, and premium,
if any, on the Person Bonds then due and payable and the amount of funds
required to make such payment, and, with respect to interest on the Person
Bonds, specifying the last date to which interest has been paid, the applicable

equal to the principal amount of Person Bonds so to be redeemed, shall be
redeemed by the Company, on the date fixed for redemption of such Person Bonds,
at the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest to such redemption date,
and, should any of the Person Bonds so to be redeemed by redeemable at a price
that includes a redemption premium, together, in the case of the corresponding
bonds of the Seventy-second Series, with a premium in an amount equal to such
redemption premium on such Person Bonds.
In the event that the principal of the Person Bonds shall have been
declared by the Person Trustee to be due and payable pursuant to Section
12.03(1) of the Person Indenture, the bonds of the Seventy-second Series then
Outstanding shall be redeemed by the Company, immediately and on the same date
as the Person Bonds thereby become so due and payable, at the principal amount
thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of their payment,
together with premium in an amount equal to any premium due and payable in
respect of the Person Bonds (whether as a component of Purchase Price (as
defined in the Person Indenture) or otherwise); provided, however, that if such
declaration and its consequences in respect of the Person Bonds shall have been
rescinded and annulled in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.03(2) of
the Person Indenture, the Company shall not be required so to redeem any bonds
of the Seventy-second Series.
The Corporate Trustee may conclusively presume that no redemption of
bonds of the Seventy-second Series is required pursuant to this subsection (III)
unless and until it shall have received a written notice from the Person
Trustee, signed by its President, a Vice President or a Trust Officer, stating
that the Person Bonds are to be redeemed pursuant to the Person Indenture or
stating that the principal of the Person Bonds has been declared by the Person
Trustee to be due and payable pursuant to Section 12.03(1) of the Person

redemption pursuant to subsection (III) of this Section 1(B) state that such
notice is subject to the receipt of the redemption moneys by the Corporate
Trustee before the date fixed for redemption. Notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 52 of the Mortgage, any such notice under such subsection shall not be
conditional.
(V) The bonds of the Seventy-second Series shall not be transferable
except as required to effect an assignment to a successor trustee under the
Person Indenture or a nominee of such trustee, any such transfer to be made at
the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New
York.
At the option of the registered owner, any bonds of the Seventy-second
Series, upon surrender thereof for cancellation at the office or agency of the
Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, are exchangeable for
a like aggregate principal amount of bonds of the same series of other
authorized denominations. The bonds of the Seventy-second Series may bear such
legends as may be necessary to comply with any law or with any rules or
regulations made pursuant thereto or with the rules or regulations of any stock
exchange or to conform to usage or agreement with respect thereto.
Upon any exchange or transfer of bonds of the Seventy-second Series,
the Company may make a charge therefor sufficient to reimburse it for any tax or
taxes or other governmental charge required to be paid by the Company, as
provided in Section 12 of the Mortgage, but the Company hereby waives any right
to make a charge in addition thereto for any exchange or transfer of bonds of
said Series.
