AND IT IS HEREBY COVENANTED by the Company that all the terms,
conditions, provisos, covenants and provisions contained in the Mortgage, as
supplemented, shall affect and apply to the property hereinbefore described and
conveyed and to the estate, rights, obligations and duties of the Company and

part of the property therein stated to be conveyed.
The Company further covenants and agrees to and with the Trustees and
their successors in said trust under the Mortgage, as follows:
ARTICLE I
2005 SERIES OF BONDS
SECTION 1. (I) There shall be a series of bonds designated 8% Series
due 2005 (herein sometimes referred to as the "Bonds of the 2005 Series"), each
of which shall also bear the descriptive title, First Mortgage Bond, and the
form thereof, which is established by Resolution of the Board of Directors of
the Company, shall contain suitable provisions with respect to the matters
hereinafter in this Article I specified. Bonds of the 2005 Series shall be
limited to $735,000,000 in aggregate principal amount, except as provided in
Section 16 of the Mortgage, shall mature on June 6, 2005, and shall be issued as
fully registered bonds in denominations of Five Thousand Dollars and in any
multiple or multiples of Five Thousand Dollars. Bonds of the 2005 Series shall
bear interest at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum payable (subject to
the second paragraph of Section 1(III)) on the interest payment dates for the
Loans (as defined below). Every Bond of the 2005 Series shall bear interest from
each interest payment date for the Loans next preceding the date thereof, unless
no interest has been paid on this Bond in which case from June 6, 2002. The
principal of and interest on Bonds of the 2005 Series shall be payable at the
office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, 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. Bonds of the 2005 Series
shall be dated as in Section 10 of the Mortgage provided.
(II) Bonds of the 2005 Series are redeemable prior to maturity only
upon demand therefor by the Collateral Agent. To effect the redemption of Bonds
of the 2005 Series, the Collateral Agent shall deliver to the Trustee (and
deliver a copy thereof to the Company) a written demand (hereinafter
-15-
referred to as a "Redemption Demand") for the redemption of Bonds of the 2005
Series, signed by an authorized officer and dated the date of its delivery to
the Corporate Trustee, stating (i) that an Event of Default (as defined in the
Collateral Agreement) has occurred and is continuing, (ii) that there are not
sufficient available funds held by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the
Collateral Agreement to make all payments required as a result of such Event of
Default, (iii) the amount of funds, in addition to available funds held by the
Collateral Agent pursuant to the Collateral Agreement, required to make such
payments, and (iv) the principal amount of Bonds of the 2005 Series the
Collateral Agent demands to have redeemed and the redemption date therefor which
date should be at least thirty-one (31) days after the date of such Redemption
Demand (provided, such principal amount shall not exceed the amount of funds
specified pursuant to the foregoing clause (iii)). The Trustee may conclusively
presume the statements contained in the Redemption Demand to be correct.
Redemption of Bonds of the 2005 Series shall in all cases be at a price equal to
the principal amount of the Bonds to be redeemed together with accrued interest
to the redemption date, and such amount shall become and be due and payable on
the redemption date.
The Company hereby covenants that if a Redemption Demand shall be
delivered to the Corporate Trustee, the Company will deposit, on or before the
redemption date, with the Corporate Trustee, in accordance with Article X of the
Mortgage, an amount in cash sufficient to redeem the Bonds of the 2005 Series so
called for redemption.
(III) All Bonds of the 2005 Series shall be issued and pledged by the
Company to the Collateral Agent pursuant to a Collateral and Guarantee Agreement
dated as of June 6, 2002 among the Company, Western Resources, Inc. ("WRI") and
JPMorgan Chase Bank (in such capacity, the "Collateral Agent") to secure the
payment of the principal of, and up to 8% per annum of the interest on any of
the loans issued pursuant to the $735,000,000 Credit Agreement, dated as of June
6, 2002 among WRI, JPMorgan Chase Bank, as administrative agent, and the lenders
party thereto, (the "Credit Agreement" and the loans thereunder are referred to
collectively as the "Loans").
The obligation of the Company to make payments with respect to the
principal of and interest on Bonds of the 2005 Series (including without
limitation upon maturity thereof) shall be fully or partially, as the case may
be, satisfied and discharged to the extent that, at the time that any such
payment shall be due, the then due principal of and interest on the Loans shall
have been fully or partially paid, or there shall be held by the Collateral
Agent pursuant to the Collateral Agreement sufficient available funds to fully
or partially pay the then due principal of and interest on the Loans.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Supplemental Indenture or the
Mortgage, interest on the Bonds of the 2005 Series shall be deemed fully or
partially satisfied and discharged as provided herein even if the interest rate
on Bonds of the 2005 Series may be higher or lower than the interest rate on any
of the Loans at the time interest on any such Loans is paid. The Corporate
Trustee may conclusively presume that the obligation of the Company to make
payments with respect to the principal of and interest on Bonds of the 2005
Series shall have been fully satisfied and discharged unless and until the
Corporate Trustee shall have received a written notice from the Collateral
Agent, signed by an authorized officer, stating (i) that timely payment of the
principal of or interest on the Loans required to be made by the Company has not
been made, (ii) that there are not sufficient available funds held by the
Collateral Agent pursuant to the Collateral Agreement to make such payment and
-16-
(iii) the amount of funds, in addition to available funds held by the Collateral
Agent pursuant to the Collateral Agreement, required to make such payment.
(IV) At the option of the registered owner, any Bonds of the 2005
Series, upon surrender thereof, for cancellation, at the office or agency of the
Company in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York, shall be exchangeable for
a like aggregate principal amount of bonds of the same series of other
authorized denominations. The Bonds of the 2005 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 with respect thereto.
(V) Bonds of the 2005 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, City of New York.

provided, created or supplemented and agree to perform the same upon the terms
and conditions set forth herein and in the Mortgage, as heretofore amended and
supplemented, and upon the following terms and conditions:
The Trustees shall not be responsible in any manner whatsoever for or
in respect of the validity or sufficiency of this Forty-first Supplemental
Indenture or for or in respect of the recitals contained herein, all of which

condition contained in Article XVI of the Mortgage, as heretofore amended and
supplemented, shall apply to and form part of this Forty-first 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 Forty-first
Supplemental Indenture.
SECTION 4. Subject to the provisions of Article XV and Article XVI of

-17-
Indenture contained by or on behalf of the Company or by or on behalf of the
Trustees shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and
assigns of such parties whether so expressed or not.
SECTION 5. Nothing in this Forty-first Supplemental Indenture,
expressed or implied, is intended, or shall be construed, to confer upon, or to
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 Forty-first Supplemental Indenture or
any covenant, condition, stipulation, promise or agreement hereof, and all the
covenants, conditions, stipulations, promises and agreements in this Forty-first
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 of the coupons Outstanding under the Mortgage.
SECTION 6. The Company reserves the right, subject to appropriate
corporate action, but without any consent or other action by holders of Bonds of
the 2005 Series, or of any subsequent series of bonds, to make such amendments
to the Mortgage, as supplemented, as shall be necessary in order to (A) permit
the issuance of additional Prior Xxxx Xxxxx other than to the Corporate Trustee
(i) in a principal amount not to exceed the principal amount of Bonds which
could then be issued on the basis of Property Additions under the Mortgage or
(ii) upon the redemption or retirement of Prior Xxxx Xxxxx secured by such Prior
Lien, (B) to remove the requirement that Prior Xxxx Xxxxx be issued to the
Corporate Trustee, (C) remove the provisions of Article V which eliminate from
the calculation of unfunded net Property Additions available for issuance of
Bonds the amount of any Property Additions subject to a Prior Lien if the
aggregate amount of Outstanding Prior Xxxx Xxxxx is 15% or more of the sum of
the Outstanding Bonds and Prior Xxxx Xxxxx, and (D) make such other amendments
to the Mortgage as may be necessary or desirable in the opinion of the Company
to effect the foregoing.

several counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which shall
constitute but one and the same instrument.
