The Company further covenants and agrees to and with the Trustee and its successor or successors in said trust under the Mortgage as follows:

ARTICLE I

SEVENTY-FIRST SERIES BONDS

SECTION 1.    There shall be a series of bonds designated “5.40% Series due November 1, 2024” (herein sometimes called 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 (which shall be initially issued in the aggregate principal amount of $400,000,000) shall be dated as in Section 10 of the Mortgage provided, shall mature on November 1, 2024, shall be issued as fully registered bonds in any integral multiple or multiples of One Thousand Dollars, and shall bear interest at the rate of 5.40% per annum, the first interest payment to be made on May 1, 2010, for the period from November 16, 2009 to May 1, 2010 with subsequent interest payments payable semi-annually on May 1 and November 1 of each year (each an “Interest Payment Date”), the principal of and interest on each said bond to 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.

Interest on the bonds of the Seventy-first Series will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. In any case where any Interest Payment Date, redemption date or maturity of any bond of the Seventy-first Series shall not be a Business Day, then payment of interest or principal and premium, if any, need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, with the same force and effect, and in the same amount, as if made on the corresponding Interest Payment Date or redemption date, or at maturity, as the case may be, and, if such payment is made or duly provided for on such Business Day, no interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, redemption date or maturity, as the case may be, to such Business Day. “Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or a Sunday, or a day on which banking institutions in The City of New York are authorized or required by law or executive order to remain closed or a day on which the corporate trust office of the Trustee is closed for business.

So long as all of the bonds of the Seventy-first Series are held by The Depository Trust Company or its nominee, or a successor thereof, the record date for the payment of interest on the bonds of the Seventy-first Series shall be the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the corresponding Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that the record date for the payment of interest which is paid after such Interest Payment Date, shall be the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which such interest is paid. Interest on the bonds of the Seventy-first Series shall be paid to the Person in whose name such bonds of the Seventy-first Series are registered at the close of business on the record date for the corresponding Interest Payment Date.

The Company reserves the right to establish, at any time, by Resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company, a form of coupon bond, and of appurtenant coupons, for the Seventy-first Series and to provide for exchangeability of such coupon bonds with the bonds of said Series issued hereunder in fully registered form and to make all appropriate provisions for such purpose.

(I) The bonds of the Seventy-first Series shall be redeemable at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, upon notice, as provided in Section 52 of the Mortgage, mailed not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption, at any time prior to maturity, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (a) 100% of the principal amount of the bonds of the Seventy-first Series to be redeemed and (b) as determined by the Independent Investment Banker, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal of and interest on such bonds of the Seventy-first Series to be redeemed (excluding the portion of any such interest accrued to the redemption date), discounted (for purposes of determining such present values) to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Adjusted Treasury Rate plus 0.35% plus accrued interest thereon to the redemption date.

If, at the time notice of redemption is given, the redemption monies are not held by the Trustee, the redemption may be made subject to the receipt of such monies before the date fixed for redemption, and such notice shall be of no effect unless such monies are so received.

As used herein, the following defined terms shall have the respective meanings specified unless the context clearly requires otherwise:

The term “Adjusted Treasury Rate” shall mean, with respect to any redemption date:

(1)           the yield, under the heading which represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15(519)” or any successor publication which is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue (if no maturity is within three months before or after the remaining term of the bonds of the Seventy-first Series, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue shall be determined and the Adjusted Treasury Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight line basis, rounding to the nearest month); or

(2)           if such release (or any successor release) is not published during the week preceding the calculation date for the Adjusted Treasury Rate or does not contain such yields, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption date.

The Adjusted Treasury Rate shall be calculated on the third Business Day preceding the redemption date.

The term “Comparable Treasury Issue” shall mean the United States Treasury security selected by the Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the bonds of the Seventy-first Series that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the bonds of the Seventy-first Series.

The term “Comparable Treasury Price” shall mean, with respect to any redemption date, (i) the average of five Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations or (ii) if the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than five such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such reference Treasury Dealer Quotations.

The term “Independent Investment Banker” shall mean one of the Reference Treasury Dealers that the Company appoints to act as Independent Investment Banker from time to time, or, if any such firms is unwilling or unable to select the Comparable Treasury Issue, an independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the Company.

The term “Reference Treasury Dealer” shall mean (i) X.X. Xxxxxx Securities Inc. and RBS Securities Inc. and their respective successors; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be a Primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company will substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer, and (ii) any other Primary Treasury Dealer selected by the Independent Investment Banker after consultation with the Company.

The term “Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” shall mean, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the Independent Investment Banker, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Independent Investment Banker at 5:00 p.m. on the third Business Day preceding such redemption date.

Bonds of the Seventy-first Series shall be transferable, upon the surrender thereof for cancellation, together with a written instrument of transfer in form approved by the registrar duly executed by the registered owner or by his duly authorized attorney, at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York.

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, 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.

ARTICLE II

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

SECTION 1.    Pursuant to Section 103 of the Mortgage, as of the date hereof, the Co-Trustee does hereby resign and such resignation is hereby accepted. The Co-Trustee is hereby discharged and hereby ceases to be the Co-Trustee, and all powers of the Co-Trustee do hereby terminate, as do his right, title and interest in and to the trust estate, all without further action by the Company, the Trustee or the holders of the bonds of the Seventy-first Series. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Mortgage, no vacancy shall be deemed to be created in the office of the Co-Trustee by such resignation, no lien afforded to him under the Mortgage shall be retained by the resigning Co-Trustee and, unless and until there shall be appointed a new trustee or successor to the Co-Trustee, all of the right, title and powers of the Trustees shall devolve upon the Trustee and its successors alone. The Trustee shall not be required to appoint a successor to the Co-Trustee unless and until the Trustee or the Company determines that it is necessary to do so. All references in the Mortgage, as amended and supplemented by this Sixty-sixth Supplemental Indenture, to “Trustees” shall be construed to be references solely to the Trustee unless and until such time as a successor to the Co-Trustee shall be appointed.

SECTION 2.    The holders of the bonds of the Seventy-first Series shall be deemed to have consented and agreed that the Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the holders of the bonds of the Seventy-first Series entitled to consent to any amendment or supplement to the Mortgage or the waiver of any provision thereof or any act to be performed thereunder. If a record date is fixed, those persons who were holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those persons, shall be entitled to consent to such amendment, supplement or waiver or to revoke any consent previously given, whether or not such persons continue to be holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 90 days after such record date.

SECTION 3.    Subject to any amendments provided for in this Sixty-sixth Supplemental Indenture, the terms defined in the Mortgage, as heretofore supplemented, shall, for all purposes of this Sixty-sixth Supplemental Indenture, have the meanings specified in the Mortgage, as heretofore supplemented.

SECTION 4.    So long as any bonds of the Seventy-first Series shall remain Outstanding, in each Net Earning Certificate made pursuant to Section 7 of the Mortgage there shall be included in operating expenses for the twelve (12) months period with respect to which such certificate is made an amount, if any (not otherwise included), equal to the provisions for amortization of any amounts included in utility plant acquisition adjustment accounts for such period.

SECTION 5.    So long as any bonds of the Seventy-first Series shall remain Outstanding, subdivision (2) of Section 7(A) of the Mortgage is hereby amended by adding thereto the following words “provided, further, that the amount so included in such operating expenses in lieu of the amounts actually appropriated out of income for retirement of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property used primarily and principally in the electric, gas, steam and/or hot water utility business and the Company’s automotive equipment used in the operation of such property shall not be less than the amounts so actually appropriated out of income”.

SECTION 6.    The Trustee hereby accepts the trusts herein declared, provided, created or supplemented and agrees to perform the same upon the terms and conditions herein and in the Mortgage, as heretofore amended, set forth and upon the following terms and conditions:

The Trustee shall not be responsible in any manner whatsoever for or in respect of the validity or sufficiency of this Sixty-sixth Supplemental Indenture or for or in respect of the recitals contained herein, all of which recitals are made by the Company solely. In general, each and every term and condition contained in Article XVII of the Mortgage, as heretofore amended, shall apply to and form part of this Sixty-sixth Supplemental Indenture with the same force and effect as if the same were herein set forth in full with such omissions, variations and insertions, if any, as may be appropriate to make the same conform to the provisions of this Sixty-sixth Supplemental Indenture.

SECTION 7.    Whenever in this Sixty-sixth Supplemental Indenture any of the parties hereto is named or referred to, this shall, subject to the provisions of Articles XVI and XVII of the Mortgage, as heretofore amended, be deemed to include the successors and assigns of such party, and all covenants and agreements in this Sixty-sixth Supplemental Indenture contained by or on behalf of the Company, or by or on behalf of the Trustee, shall, subject as aforesaid, bind and inure to the respective benefits of the respective successors and assigns of such parties, whether so expressed or not.

SECTION 8.    Nothing in this Sixty-sixth Supplemental Indenture, expressed or implied, is intended, or shall be construed, to confer upon, or give to, any person, firm or corporation, other than the parties hereto and the holders of the bonds and coupons Outstanding under the Mortgage, any right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Sixty-sixth Supplemental Indenture or any covenant, condition, stipulation, promise or agreement hereof, and all the covenants, conditions, stipulations, promises and agreements in this Sixty-sixth Supplemental Indenture contained by or on behalf of the Company shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto, and of the holders of the bonds and coupons Outstanding under the Mortgage.

SECTION 9.    It is the intention and it is hereby agreed that, so far as concerns that portion of the Mortgaged and Pledged Property situated within the State of Louisiana, the general language of conveyance contained in this Sixty-sixth Supplemental Indenture is intended and shall be construed as words of hypothecation and not of conveyance, and that, so far as the said Louisiana property is concerned, this Sixty-sixth Supplemental Indenture shall be considered as an act of mortgage and pledge under the laws of the State of Louisiana, and the Trustee herein named is named as mortgagee and pledgee in trust for the benefit of itself and of all present and future holders of bonds and coupons issued and to be issued under the Mortgage, and is irrevocably appointed special agent and representative of the holders of the bonds and coupons issued and to be issued under the Mortgage and vested with full power in their behalf to effect and enforce the mortgage and pledge hereby constituted for their benefit, or otherwise to act as herein provided for.

SECTION 10.    This Sixty-sixth Supplemental Indenture shall be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which shall constitute but one and the same instrument.
