| PART I. CREATION OF THREE HUNDRED EIGHTY-NINTH SERIES OF BONDS, GENERAL AND REFUNDING MORTGAGE BONDS, 2023 SERIES DT | |||||
| TERMS OF BONDS OF 2023 SERIES DT. | SECTION 1. The Company hereby creates the three hundred eighty-ninth series of bonds to be issued under and secured by the Original Indenture as amended to date and as further amended by this Supplemental Indenture, to be designated, and to be distinguished from the bonds of all other series, by the title “General and Refunding Mortgage Bonds, 2023 Series DT” (elsewhere herein referred to as the “bonds of 2023 Series DT”). The aggregate principal amount of bonds of 2023 Series DT shall be limited to One hundred million dollars ($100,000,000), except as provided in Sections 7 and 13 of Article II of the Original Indenture with respect to exchanges and replacements of bonds. | ||||
| Each bond of 2023 Series DT is to be irrevocably assigned to, and registered in the name of, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee, or a successor trustee (said trustee or any successor trustee being hereinafter referred to as the “MSF Indenture Trustee”), under the Trust Indenture, dated as of May 1, 2023, as supplemented (the “MSF Indenture”), between the Michigan Strategic Fund and the MSF Indenture Trustee, to secure payment of the Michigan Strategic Fund Limited Obligation Revenue Bonds (DTE Electric Company Exempt Facilities Project), Collateralized Series 2023DT (the “MSF Bonds”), issued by the MSF under the MSF Indenture, the proceeds of which are to be loaned to the Company pursuant to the provisions of the Loan Agreement dated as of May 1, 2023 (the “Loan Agreement”) in order to provide funds for financing of the acquisition, construction, and equipping of certain solid waste disposal facilities by the Company. | |||||
| The bonds of 2023 Series DT shall be issued as registered bonds without coupons in denominations of $5,000 or any integral multiple of $5,000 in excess thereof. The bonds of 2023 Series DT shall be issued in the aggregate principal amount of $100,000,000, shall mature on June 1, 2053 (subject to earlier redemption or release) and shall bear interest at the rate of interest established for the MSF Bonds from time to time in accordance with the MSF Indenture, payable on such dates as interest shall be payable on the MSF Bonds, until the principal thereof shall have become due and payable and thereafter until the Company’s obligation with respect to the payment of said principal shall have been discharged as provided in the Indenture. In addition to the payment of principal and interest as provided herein, in the event any premium (as provided for in the MSF Indenture) shall be required to be paid by the Company on the MSF Bonds, there shall be due and payable on the bonds of 2023 Series DT an additional amount equal to such premium which shall be paid by the Company in the amounts and on the dates required for the payment of any such amounts under the MSF Indenture. | |||||
| The bonds of 2023 Series DT shall be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest as provided in the Indenture, but only to the extent and in the manner herein provided. The bonds of 2023 Series DT shall be payable, as to principal, premium, if any, and interest, at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, the City and State of New York, in any coin or currency of the United States of America which at the time of payment is legal tender for public and private debts. | |||||
12
| Except as provided herein, each bond of 2023 Series DT shall be dated the date of its authentication and interest shall be payable on the principal represented thereby from the next preceding date to which interest has been paid on bonds of 2023 Series DT, unless the bond is authenticated on a date to which interest has been paid, in which case interest shall be payable from the date of authentication, or unless the date of authentication is prior to the first date on which interest is payable on the MSF Bonds, in which case interest shall be payable from June 1, 2023. | |||||
| The bonds of 2023 Series DT in definitive form shall be, at the election of the Company, fully engraved or shall be lithographed or printed in authorized denominations as aforesaid and numbered R-1 and upwards (with such further designation as may be appropriate and desirable to indicate by such designation the form, series and denomination of bonds of 2023 Series DT). Until bonds of 2023 Series DT in definitive form are ready for delivery, the Company may execute, and upon its request in writing the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in lieu thereof, bonds of 2023 Series DT in temporary form, as provided in Section 10 of Article II of the Indenture. Temporary bonds of 2023 Series DT if any, may be printed and may be issued in authorized denominations in substantially the form of definitive bonds of 2023 Series DT, but without a recital of redemption prices and with such omissions, insertions and variations as may be appropriate for temporary bonds, all as may be determined by the Company. | |||||
| Interest on any bond of 2023 Series DT that is payable on any interest payment date and is punctually paid or duly provided for shall be paid to the person in whose name that bond, or any previous bond to the extent evidencing the same debt as that evidenced by that bond, is registered at the close of business on the regular record date for such interest, which regular record date shall be the record date for the MSF Bonds with respect to such interest payment date. If the Company shall default in the payment of the interest due on any interest payment date on the principal represented by any bond of 2023 Series DT, such defaulted interest shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered holder of that bond on the relevant regular record date by virtue of his having been such holder, and such defaulted interest may be paid to the registered holder of that bond (or any bond or bonds of 2023 Series DT issued upon transfer or exchange thereof) on the date of payment of such defaulted interest or, at the election of the Company, to the person in whose name that bond (or any bond or bonds of 2023 Series DT issued upon transfer or exchange thereof) is registered on a subsequent record date established by notice given by mail by or on behalf of the Company to the holders of bonds of 2023 Series DT not less than ten (10) days preceding such subsequent record date, which subsequent record date shall be at least five (5) days prior to the payment date of such defaulted interest. | |||||
| Bonds of 2023 Series DT shall not be assignable or transferable except as may be set forth under Section 14.02 of the MSF Indenture, or, subject to compliance with applicable law, as may be involved in the course of the exercise of rights and remedies consequent upon an Event of Default under the MSF Indenture. Any such transfer shall be made upon surrender thereof for cancellation at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, the City and State of New York, together with a written instrument of transfer (if so required by the Company or by the Trustee) in form approved by the Company duly executed by the holder or by its duly authorized attorney. Bonds of 2023 Series DT shall in the same manner be exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of bonds of 2023 Series DT upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in Section 7 of Article II of the Indenture.

13
| Upon payment of the principal or premium, if any, or interest on the MSF Bonds, whether at maturity or prior to maturity by redemption or otherwise, or upon provision for the payment thereof having been made in accordance with Article VIII of the MSF Indenture, bonds of 2023 Series DT in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of such MSF Bonds, shall, to the extent of such payment of principal, premium or interest, be deemed fully paid and the obligation of the Company thereunder to make such payment shall forthwith cease and be discharged, and, in the case of the payment of principal and premium, if any, such bonds shall be surrendered for cancellation or presented for appropriate notation to the Trustee. | |||||
| In the event the Company desires to provide for the payment of bonds of 2023 Series DT, in lieu of defeasing such bonds in accordance with the Indenture, it shall either redeem an equal principal amount of MSF Bonds or take such action as shall be required by Article VIII of the MSF Indenture to defease an equal principal amount of MSF Bonds. | |||||
| Any amount payable by the Company in respect of principal of bonds of 2023 Series DT, whether at maturity or prior to maturity by redemption or upon acceleration or otherwise, in a circumstance where there has not been a corresponding payment of principal of MSF Bonds shall be applied simultaneously to the redemption or defeasance of an equal principal amount of MSF Bonds in accordance with the MSF Indenture. In the event the amount so paid is insufficient to provide for such redemption or defeasance, the Company shall pay such additional amount as shall be necessary to make up for the deficiency. | |||||
| REDEMPTION OF BONDS OF 2023 SERIES DT. | SECTION 2. Bonds of 2023 Series DT shall be redeemed on the respective dates and in the respective principal amounts which correspond to the redemption dates for, and the principal amounts to be redeemed of, the MSF Bonds. | ||||
| In the event the Company elects to redeem any MSF Bonds prior to maturity in accordance with the provisions of the MSF Indenture, the Company shall give the Trustee notice of redemption of bonds of 2023 Series DT on the same date as it gives notice of redemption of MSF Bonds to the MSF Indenture Trustee. | |||||
14
| REDEMPTION OF BONDS OF 2023 SERIES DT IN EVENT OF ACCELERATION OF MSF BONDS. | SECTION 3. In the event of an Event of Default under the MSF Indenture and the acceleration of all MSF Bonds, the bonds of 2023 Series DT shall be redeemable in whole upon receipt by the Trustee of a written demand (hereinafter called a “Redemption Demand”) from the MSF Indenture Trustee stating that there has occurred under the MSF Indenture both an Event of Default and a declaration of acceleration of payment of principal, accrued interest and premium, if any, on the MSF Bonds, specifying the last date to which interest on the MSF Bonds has been paid (such date being hereinafter referred to as the “Initial Interest Accrual Date”) and demanding redemption of the bonds of said series. The Trustee shall, within five (5) days after receiving such Redemption Demand, mail a copy thereof to the Company marked to indicate the date of its receipt by the Trustee. Promptly upon receipt by the Company of such copy of a Redemption Demand, the Company shall fix a date on which it will redeem the bonds of said series so demanded to be redeemed (hereinafter called the “Demand Redemption Date”). Notice of the date fixed as the Demand Redemption Date shall be mailed by the Company to the Trustee at least ten (10) days prior to such Demand Redemption Date. The date to be fixed by the Company as and for the Demand Redemption Date may be any date up to and including the earlier of (x) the 60th day after receipt by the Trustee of the Redemption Demand or (y) the maturity date of such bonds first occurring following the 20th day after the receipt by the Trustee of the Redemption Demand; provided, however, that if the Trustee shall not have received such notice fixing the Demand Redemption Date on or before the 10th day preceding the earlier of such dates, the Demand Redemption Date shall be deemed to be the earlier of such dates. The Trustee shall mail notice of the Demand Redemption Date (such notice being hereinafter called the “Demand Redemption Notice”) to the MSF Indenture Trustee not more than ten (10) nor less than five (5) days prior to the Demand Redemption Date. | ||||
| Each bond of 2023 Series DT shall be redeemed by the Company on the Demand Redemption Date therefor upon surrender thereof by the MSF Indenture Trustee to the Trustee at a redemption price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest thereon at the rate specified for such bond from the Initial Interest Accrual Date to the Demand Redemption Date plus an amount equal to the aggregate premium, if any, due and payable on such Demand Redemption Date on all MSF Bonds; provided, however, that in the event of a receipt by the Trustee of a notice that, pursuant to Section 9.03 of the MSF Indenture, the MSF Indenture Trustee has terminated proceedings to enforce any right under the MSF Indenture, then any Redemption Demand shall thereby be rescinded by the MSF Indenture Trustee, and no Demand Redemption Notice shall be given, or, if already given, shall be automatically annulled; but no such rescission or annulment shall extend to or affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon. | |||||
| Anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee is not authorized to take any action pursuant to a Redemption Demand and such Redemption Demand shall be of no force or effect, unless it is executed in the name of the MSF Indenture Trustee by its President or one of its Vice Presidents. | |||||
| FORM OF BONDS OF 2023 SERIES DT. | SECTION 4. The bonds of 2023 Series DT and the form of Trustee’s Certificate to be endorsed on such bonds shall be substantially in the following forms, respectively: | ||||
