2
WHEREAS for the purpose of confirming or perfecting the lien of the

records in the States of Washington, California, Idaho, Montana and Oregon; and
WHEREAS in addition to the property described in the Mortgage the
Company has acquired certain other property, rights and interests in property;
and
WHEREAS Section 8 of the Original Mortgage provides that the form of
each series of bonds (other than the First Series) issued thereunder and of the

Resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company; that the form of such
series, as established by said Board of Directors, shall specify the descriptive
title of the bonds and various other terms thereof; and that such series may

bonds are to be issued and/or secured under the Mortgage; and
WHEREAS Section 120 of the Original Mortgage provides, among other

for the benefit of any one or more series of bonds issued thereunder, or the
Company may cure any ambiguity contained therein, or in any supplemental
indenture, by an instrument in writing executed and acknowledged by the Company

record in all of the states in which any property at the time subject to the
lien of the Mortgage shall be situated; and
WHEREAS the Company now desires to create a new series of bonds; and
WHEREAS the execution and delivery by the Company of this
Thirty-fifth Supplemental Indenture, and the terms of the bonds of the
Thirty-third Series, hereinafter referred to, have been duly authorized by the

AVISTA CORPORATION, a corporation of the State of Washington
(hereinafter called the Company), for value received, hereby promises to pay to
, as trustee under the Indenture hereinafter referred to or registered assigns,
on the Stated Maturity Date indicated above,
DOLLARS
The principal shall be payable upon presentation hereof 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.
This bond is one of an issue of bonds of the Company issuable in
series and is one of a series known as its First Mortgage Bonds, Collateral
Series 2004A, all bonds of all such issue of series being issued and issuable
under and equally secured (except insofar as any sinking or other fund,
established in accordance with the provisions of the Mortgage hereinafter
mentioned, may afford additional security for the bonds of any particular
series) by a Mortgage and Deed of Trust, dated as of June 1, 1939, executed by
the Company (formerly known as The Washington Water Power Company) to City Bank
Farmers Trust Company and Xxxxx X. Xxxxxx, as Trustees (Citibank, N.A.,
successor Trustee to both said Trustees). Such mortgage and deed of trust has
been amended and supplemented by various supplemental indentures, including the
Thirty-fifth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of December 1, 2004 (the
"Thirty-fifth Supplemental Indenture") and, as so amended and supplemented, is
herein called the
"Mortgage". Reference is made to the Mortgage for a description of the property
mortgaged and pledged, the nature and extent of the security, the rights of the
holders of the bonds and of the Trustee in respect thereof, the duties and
immunities of the Trustee and the terms and conditions upon which the bonds are
and are to be secured and the circumstances under which additional bonds may be
issued. By its acceptance of this bond, the holder hereof is deemed to have
consented and agreed to all of the terms and provisions of the Mortgage. The
Mortgage may be modified or altered by affirmative vote of the holders of at
least 60% in principal amount of the bonds outstanding under the Mortgage,
considered as one class, or, if the rights of one or more, but less than all,
series of bonds then outstanding are to be affected, then such modification or
alteration may be effected with the affirmative vote only of 60% in principal
amount of the bonds outstanding of the series so to be affected, considered as
one class, and, furthermore, for limited purposes, the Mortgage may be modified
or altered without any consent or other action of holders of any series of
bonds. No modification or alteration shall, however, permit an extension of the
Maturity of the principal of this bond or a reduction in such principal or any
other modification in the terms of payment of such principal or the creation of
any lien equal or prior to the lien of the Mortgage or deprive the holder of a
lien on the mortgaged and pledged property without the consent of the holder
hereof.
The bonds of this series are redeemable, in whole at any time or in
part from time to time, at the option of the Company at the principal amount
thereof.
The bonds of this series have been issued and delivered to, and are
to be held by, the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of all
Benefitted Securities from time to time outstanding under the Indenture (as such
terms are defined in the Thirty-fifth Supplemental Indenture);
In the event that the Notes (as defined in the Thirty-fifth
Supplemental Indenture) maturing on June 19, 2028, or any principal amount
thereof, are to be redeemed on June 19, 2008 in accordance with the provisions
thereof, bonds of this series having a Stated Maturity Date of June 19, 2028, in
the principal amount of the Notes so to be redeemed, shall be redeemd on June
19, 2008 at the principal amount thereof.
In the event that the maturity of all outstanding Benefitted
Securities shall have been accelerated following an Event of Default (as defined
in the Indenture), all outstanding bonds of this series shall be redeemed at the
principal amount thereof (the obligation to effect such redemption being
rescinded upon the rescission of such acceleration);
The obligation of the Company to pay the principal of bonds of this
series of any stated maturity at or after Maturity shall be deemed to have been
satisfied and discharged to the extent of the amount, if any, paid by the
Company in respect of the corresponding amount of principal then due on the
Notes of the same stated maturity.
Anything in this bond to the contrary notwithstanding, if, at the
time of the Maturity of the bonds of this series of any stated maturity, the
stated aggregate principal amount of such bonds of such stated maturity then
outstanding shall exceed the aggregate principal
C-2
amount of Notes of such stated maturity then outstanding under the Indenture,
the aggregate principal amount of such bonds of such stated maturity shall be
deemed to have been reduced by the amount of such excess.
The principal hereof may be declared or may become due prior to the
stated maturity date on the conditions, in the manner and at the time set forth
in the Mortgage, upon the occurrence of a Completed Default as in the Mortgage
provided.
This bond is non-transferable except as required to effect transfer
to any successor trustee under the Indenture, any such transfer to be made at
the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New
York, upon surrender and cancellation of this bond, together with a written
instrument of transfer whenever required by the Company duly executed by the
registered owner or by its duly authorized attorney, and, thereupon, a new fully
registered bond of the same series for a like principal amount will be issued to
the transferee in exchange herefor as provided in the Mortgage. The Company and
the Trustee may deem and treat the person in whose name this bond is registered
as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment and for all
other purposes.
In the manner prescribed in the Mortgage, any bonds of this 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 and stated maturity of
other authorized denominations.
No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or
interest on this bond against any incorporator or any past, present or future
subscriber to the capital stock, stockholder, officer or director of the Company
or of any predecessor or successor corporation, as such, either directly or
through the Company or any predecessor or successor corporation, under any rule
of law, statute or constitution or by the enforcement of any assessment or
otherwise, all such liability of incorporators, subscribers, stockholders,
officers and directors being released by the holder or owner hereof by the
acceptance of this bond and being likewise waived and released by the terms of
the Mortgage.
This bond shall not become obligatory until Citibank, N.A., the
Trustee under the Mortgage, or its successor thereunder, shall have signed the
form of certificate endorsed hereon.
