This Bond is one of the First and Refunding Mortgage Bonds of the Company,
all issued and to be issued in series, from time to time, under and in
accordance with and, irrespective of the time of issue or of the series in which
issued or the designation thereof, equally secured by an Indenture, dated the
second day of January, 1926, executed by Chicago By-Product Coke Company, a
Delaware corporation, to Illinois Merchants Trust Company, as trustee, and
recorded on January 19, 1926, as Document No. 9154395 in Book 22219 of Records,
at page 283, in the Recorder's Office of Xxxx County, Illinois, which Indenture
was assumed by the Company as a successor corporation, as defined therein, by an
indenture, dated the first day of March, 1928, executed by the Company to said
trustee, and recorded on April 7, 1928, as Document No. 9980547 in Book 25701 of
Records, at page 599, in the Recorder's Office of Xxxx County, Illinois, and has
heretofore been, and from time to time hereafter may be, amended and
supplemented by indentures supplemental thereto, including the Supplemental
Indenture dated as of June 1, 1995 relating to the hereinafter described Series
FF Bonds (the "Supplemental Indenture"). The word "Mortgage", as used in this
Bond, shall mean said Indenture, as amended and supplemented from time to time
by indentures supplemental thereto, including the Supplemental Indenture. The
word "Company", as used in this Bond, shall be construed to include any
successor corporation, as defined in the Mortgage. The word "Trustee", as used
in this Bond, shall be construed to mean and include Bank of America Illinois
(successor to Illinois Merchants Trust Company), as trustee under the Mortgage,
and any successor trustee thereunder. Reference is hereby made to the Mortgage
and all indentures supplemental thereto for a description of the property
mortgaged and pledged (except that certain parcels described in the Mortgage and
in said supplemental indentures have been released from the lien of the Mortgage
pursuant to the terms thereof), the nature and extent of the security and the
terms and conditions governing the issuance and security of the bonds issued or
to be issued under the Mortgage. As provided in the Mortgage, the bonds may be
for various principal sums, are issuable in series, may bear interest at
different rates and may otherwise vary as provided therein. This Bond is one of
the series of such First and Refunding Mortgage Bonds designated as "The Peoples
Gas Light and Coke Company First and Refunding Mortgage 6.10% Bonds, Series FF",
hereinafter called the "Series FF Bonds".
As more fully described in the Supplemental Indenture, the Company reserves
the right, without any consent or other action by holders of the Series FF Bonds
or the bonds of any subsequent series, to amend the Mortgage to provide that the
Mortgage, the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the
bondholders may be modified with the consent of the holders of not less than 60%
in aggregate principal amount of the bonds adversely affected; provided,
however, that no modification shall (1) extend the time or reduce the amount of
any payment on any bond without the consent of the holder of each bond so
affected, (2) permit the creation of any lien, not otherwise permitted, prior to
or on a parity with the lien of the Mortgage, without the consent of the holders
of all bonds then outstanding, or (3) reduce the above percentage of the
principal amount of bonds the holders of which are required to approve any such
modification without the consent of the holders of all bonds then outstanding.
The Series FF Bonds are subject to optional redemption prior to maturity by
the Company, in whole or in part, on any date on or after June 1, 2005, and at
the redemption prices
4
(expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below, plus accrued
interest, if any, to the redemption date:
REDEMPTION DATES REDEMPTION PRICES
---------------- -----------------
June 1, 2005 through
May 31, 2006 102%
June 1, 2006 through
May 31, 2007 101%
June 1, 2007 and 100%
thereafter
All of the outstanding Series FF Bonds may be redeemed at any time by the
Company, by the payment of the principal amount thereof and accrued interest
thereon to the date of redemption, without the payment of any premium, in the
event of the acquisition by any federal, state or municipal authority of any
substantial portion (which shall be not less than one-third as determined by
book values) of the income-producing properties of the Company which are subject
to the lien of the Mortgage.
All of the outstanding bonds under the Mortgage shall be redeemed by the
Company by the payment of the respective applicable redemption price or prices
and accrued interest thereon to the date of redemption, without the payment of
any premium, in the event of the acquisition by any federal, state or municipal
authority of all or substantially all of the income-producing properties of the
Company which are subject to the lien of the Mortgage.
All of the outstanding Series FF Bonds shall be redeemed by the Company not
more than sixty (60) days after the Trustee receives written notice from the
Revenue Bond Trustee (as defined in the Supplemental Indenture) stating that the
principal on the Chicago Refunding Revenue Bonds (as defined in the Supplemental
Indenture) has been declared to be immediately due and payable as a result of an
event of default under the Refunding Revenue Bond Indenture (as defined in the
Supplemental Indenture). The redemption price for any such redemption shall be
100% of the principal amount of the Series FF Bonds to be redeemed, plus
interest thereon accrued to the date fixed for redemption.
The Series FF Bonds are subject to optional redemption by the Company, in
whole but not in part, at any time, at a redemption price of 100% of the
principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest, if any, to the redemption date,
upon the occurrence of certain events described in the Supplemental Indenture
(relating to unreasonable burdens or excessive liabilities imposed upon the
Company; changes in the economic availability of raw materials, operating
supplies, fuel or other energy sources or supplies or technological or other
changes rendering the Project (as defined in the Supplemental Indenture)
uneconomic; court order or decree preventing operations at the Project or
rendering the continuation of the Project's operations economically unfeasible).
5
Series FF Bonds are also subject to mandatory redemption at any time, in
whole (or in part as hereinafter provided), at 100% of the principal amount
thereof, plus accrued interest, if any, to the redemption date, in the event
that it is finally determined by the Internal Revenue Service or by a court of
competent jurisdiction that, as a result of the failure by the Company to
observe any covenant, agreement or representation in that certain Loan Agreement
dated as of June 1, 1995 between the Company and the City of Chicago, Illinois,
the interest payable on the Chicago Refunding Revenue Bonds is includable for
federal income tax purposes in the gross income of any owner thereof, other than
an owner who is a "substantial user" of the Project or a "related person", as
provided in Section 147(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Code"), and the applicable regulations thereunder. Any such determination will
not be considered final for this purpose unless the Company has been given
written notice and, if it so desires, has been afforded the opportunity to
contest the same, either directly or in the name of any owner of a Chicago
Refunding Revenue Bond, and until the conclusion of any appellate review, if
sought. The Series FF Bonds shall be redeemed in whole after such determination
unless redemption of a portion of the Chicago Refunding Revenue Bonds
outstanding would have the result that interest payable on the Chicago Refunding
Revenue Bonds remaining outstanding after such redemption would not be
includable for federal income tax purposes in the gross income of any owner of
the Chicago Refunding Revenue Bonds (other than an owner who is a "substantial
user" of the Project or a "related person" within the meaning of Section 147(a)
of the Code), and in such event the Series FF Bonds shall be redeemed in such
amount as to accomplish that result.
Notice of any redemption of the Series FF Bonds shall be given by mailing
by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at least thirty (30) days and not more
than sixty (60) days prior to the redemption date, to the holders of all such
bonds to be redeemed at their last addresses that shall appear upon the registry
book, all as more fully provided in the Mortgage. Notice of redemption having
been duly given, the bonds called for redemption shall become due and payable
upon the redemption date and, if the redemption price shall have been deposited
with the Trustee, interest thereon shall cease to accrue on and after the
redemption date, and whenever the redemption price thereof shall have been
deposited with the Trustee and notice of redemption shall have been duly given
or provision therefor made, such bonds shall no longer be entitled to any lien
or benefit of the Mortgage. Whenever payment or provision therefor has been
made in respect of the principal of or interest on all or any portion of the
Chicago Refunding Revenue Bonds in accordance with the Refunding Revenue Bond
Indenture (whether at maturity or upon redemption or acceleration), the Series
FF Bonds shall be deemed paid to the extent such payment or provision therefor
has been made and is considered to be a payment of principal of or interest on
the Chicago Refunding Revenue Bonds. If the Chicago Refunding Revenue Bonds are
thereby deemed paid in full, the Series FF Bonds shall be cancelled and returned
to the Company.
In case of certain events of default specified in the Mortgage, the
principal of all bonds issued and outstanding thereunder may be declared or may
become due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the
Mortgage.
6
No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or interest on
this Bond, or for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof or of
the Mortgage, to or against any incorporator, stockholder, director or officer,
past, present or future, of the Company, either directly or through the Company,
under any constitution or statute or rule of law or by the enforcement of any
assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability of incorporators,
stockholders, directors and officers being released by the holder hereof by the
acceptance of this Bond, and being likewise waived and released by the terms of
the Mortgage.
This Bond is transferable by the registered holder hereof in person or by a
duly authorized attorney at the office or agency of the Company in the City of
Chicago, State of Illinois, upon surrender and cancellation of this Bond, and
thereupon a new registered bond or bonds, without coupons, of the same series
and for the same aggregate principal amount will be issued to the transferee in
exchange herefor. In the manner provided in the Mortgage, registered Bonds
without coupons of this series may, at the option of the registered owner and
upon surrender at said office or agency of the Company, be exchanged for
registered Bonds without coupons of this series of the same aggregate principal
amount of other authorized denominations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this
Bond may not be sold, transferred, pledged or hypothecated except as required to
effect assignment to the Revenue Bond Trustee and to any successor trustee.
The Company and the Trustee and any paying agent 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 and neither the
Company nor the Trustee nor any paying agent shall be affected by any notice to
the contrary.
This Bond shall not be entitled to any security or benefit under the
Mortgage, and shall not become valid or obligatory for any purpose, until this
Bond shall have been authenticated by the execution of the certificate, hereon
endorsed, by the Trustee or its successor in trust under the Mortgage.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Bond to be executed in its
name by its President, an Executive Vice President or a Vice President manually
or in facsimile, and has caused its corporate seal manually or in facsimile to
be hereto affixed, attested by the manual or facsimile signature of its
Secretary or of an Assistant Secretary.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the sum of One
Dollar ($1.00) duly paid by the Trustee to the Company and for other good and
valuable considerations, the receipt whereof is hereby acknowledged, the parties
hereto agree as follows:
DESCRIPTION OF CERTAIN PROPERTY SUBJECT TO THE LIEN OF
THE MORTGAGE
The Company hereby mortgages and conveys unto the Trustee, its successor or
successors in trust, the property described in Schedule A hereto attached and
expressly made a part hereof.
TO HAVE AND TO HOLD all of said property hereby conveyed and mortgaged or
intended to be conveyed and mortgaged, together with the rents, issues and
profits thereof, unto Trustee, and its successor or successors in trust and
their assigns in trust, under the and subject to all of the terms, conditions
and provisions of the Mortgage (as the Mortgage is defined herein) and of this
Supplemental Indenture as fully and in all respects as if said property had
originally been described in said Mortgage.
Subject, however, to the reservations, exceptions, limitations and
restrictions contained in the several deeds, leases, servitudes, contracts or
other instruments through which the Company acquired and/or claimed title to
and/or enjoys the use of the mortgaged property, and subject also to any
mortgages or easements existing or placed on any of said property at the time of
its acquisition, liens for taxes and assessments not due or, if due, in the
course of contests, judgments in the course of appeal or otherwise in contest
and secured by sufficient

the date of this Supplemental Indenture.
BUT IN TRUST, NEVERTHELESS, for the equal and proportionate benefit and
security of the holders of all bonds and interest coupons now or hereafter
issued under the Mortgage and for the enforcement of and payment of said bonds
and coupons when payable and the performance of and compliance with the
covenants and conditions of the Mortgage without any preference, distinction or
priority as to lien or otherwise of any bond or bonds over others by reason of
difference in time of the actual issue, sale or negotiation thereof; but so that
each and every bond now or hereafter issued under the Mortgage shall have the
same lien so that the interest and principal of any and all of such bonds shall,
subject to the terms of the Mortgage, be equally and proportionately secured
thereby, as if they had been made, executed, delivered, sold and negotiated
simultaneously with the execution thereof.
UPON CONDITION that, until the happening of an event of default as provided
in the Mortgage, the Company shall be suffered and permitted to possess, use
and enjoy the property, rights, privileges and franchises conveyed herein and to
receive and use the rents, issues, income, revenues, earnings and profits

IT IS HEREBY COVENANTED, DECLARED AND AGREED by and between the Company and
the Trustee, and its successor or successors in trust, as follows:
ARTICLE I
FIRST AND REFUNDING MORTGAGE 6.10% BONDS,
SERIES FF
SECTION 1. A new series of bonds of the Company shall be issued under and
secured by the Mortgage as supplemented, which shall be designated as the
Company's "First and Refunding Mortgage 6.10% Bonds, Series FF". The aggregate
principal amount of bonds of Series FF which may be executed by the Company and
authenticated by the Trustee shall be limited to $50,000,000 (exclusive of bonds
authenticated and delivered upon interdenominational or other exchanges and
transfers pursuant to Section 3 of Article I hereof and Sections 2, 5, 11 and 12
of Article I of the Original Mortgage and delivered pursuant to Section 3 of
Article VI of the Original Mortgage as the same may relate to fully registered
bonds). Bonds of Series FF all shall be registered bonds without coupons, and
shall be due and payable June 1, 2025. All bonds of Series FF shall bear
interest from the date thereof, payable half-yearly at or before 9:00 o'clock
a.m. Chicago time on the first day of June and the first day of December in each
year, commencing December 1, 1995, until the principal thereof shall have become
due and payable, at the rate of 6.10% per annum, and on any overdue principal
and (to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under the
applicable law) on any overdue installment of interest at the same rate per
annum, and shall be payable
10
both as to principal and interest, and as to premium, if any, in coin or
currency of the United States of America which at the time of payment is legal
tender for the payment of public and private debts, at the office or agency of
the Company in the City of Chicago, Illinois. The Company shall act as paying
agent with respect to the bonds of Series FF; provided, however, that the
Company may, from time to time, designate a successor paying agent or agents
with respect thereto if authorized by resolution adopted by the Board of
Directors of the Company and upon the delivery of written notice of such
designation to the Trustee and the Revenue Bond Trustee.
So long as there is no existing default in the payment of interest on the
bonds of Series FF, the interest payable on any interest payment day shall be to
the person in whose name any bond of Series FF is registered at the close of
business on any record date with respect to any interest payment day, and such
person shall be entitled to receive the interest payable on such interest
payment day notwithstanding any transfer or exchange of such bond of Series FF
subsequent to the record date and on or prior to such interest payment day,
except as and to the extent the Company shall default in the payment of the
interest due on such interest payment day, in which case such defaulted interest
shall be paid to the person in whose name such bond of Series FF is registered
at the close of business on a subsequent record date, which shall not be less
than five (5) days prior to the date of payment of such defaulted interest
established by notice given by mail by or on behalf of the Company to the person
in whose name such bond of Series FF is then registered and to the Trustee not
less than ten (10) days preceding such subsequent record date.
The term "record date" as used herein with respect to any interest payment
day (June 1 or December 1, as the case may be) shall mean the fifteenth day of
the calendar month next preceding such interest payment day.
As used in this Section I, the term "default in the payment of interest"
means failure to pay interest on the applicable interest payment day
disregarding any period of grace permitted by Article X of the Mortgage.
SECTION 2. Bonds of Series FF may be issued only as registered bonds
without coupons (hereinafter sometimes referred to as "registered bonds"), and
they shall be substantially in the form hereinbefore recited. They shall be
issuable in denominations which shall be multiples of $5,000 and the execution
by the Company of any bond of Series FF shall evidence conclusively the due
authorization of the denomination of such bond. Each registered bond of Series
FF shall be dated as of the date of the interest payment day on which interest
was paid on other bonds of said Series next preceding the date of issue of such
registered bond, except that (i) so long as there is no existing default in the
payment of interest upon the bonds of Series FF, any bond of Series FF issued
after the close of business on any record date, as hereinbefore defined, with
respect to any interest payment day (June 1 or December 1, as the case may be)
and prior to such interest payment day, shall be dated as of such interest
payment day, and (ii) any bond of Series F issued on an interest payment day on
which interest on other bonds of Series FF was paid shall be dated as of the
date of issue and (iii) any bond of Series FF issued before December 1, 1995
shall be dated June 1, 1995, the date of
11
commencement of the first interest period for the bonds of Series FF, unless (i)
above is applicable.
The registered owner of any bond of Series FF dated as of an interest
payment day as provided in (i) above shall, if the Company shall default in the
payment of interest due on such interest payment day and such default shall be
continuing, be entitled to exchange such bond for a bond or bonds of Series FF
of the same aggregate principal amount dated as of the interest payment day next
preceding the interest payment day first mentioned in this sentence, or, if the
Company shall default in the payment of interest on the first interest payment
day for bonds of Series FF, such owner shall be entitled to exchange such bond
for a bond or bonds of Series FF of the same aggregate principal amount dated as
of June 1, 1995. If the Trustee shall have knowledge at any time that any
registered owner of a bond of Series FF shall be entitled by the provision of
the next preceding sentence to exchange such bond, the Trustee shall within
thirty (30) days mail to such owner at the address of such owner appearing upon
the registry book, a notice informing such owner that such owner has such right
of exchange.
SECTION 3. In the manner prescribed in the Mortgage, the holder of a
registered bond or bonds of Series FF may, at the office or agency of the
Company in the City of Chicago, State of Illinois, surrender such bond or bonds
in exchange for a like aggregate principal amount of one or more registered
bonds of Series FF of any authorized denomination or denominations.
No charge will be made by the Company to the registered owner of a bond of
Series FF for the transfer thereof or for the exchange thereof for bonds of
Series FF of other authorized denominations, except, in the case of transfer, a
charge sufficient to reimburse the Company for any stamp or other tax or
governmental charge required to be paid by the Company or the Trustee.
SECTION 4. All bonds of Series FF shall be executed on behalf of the
Company by the manual or facsimile signature of its President or an Executive
Vice President or a Vice President and shall have affixed thereon the manual or
facsimile seal of the Company attested by the manual or facsimile signature of
its Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries and be authenticated by the
execution by the Trustee of the certificate endorsed on said bonds, and said
bonds shall be issued from time to time, as the Board of Directors of the
Company may determine, but in accordance with the terms, provisions, conditions
and restrictions set forth in the Mortgage and in this Supplemental Indenture.
The definitive bonds of Series FF may be issued in typewritten or printed form
or otherwise as provided in the Mortgage.
SECTION 5. (a) The bonds of Series FF are subject to optional redemption
by the Company, in whole but not in part, at any time, at a redemption price of
100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest, if any, to the
redemption date, if any of the following shall have occurred and if within one
hundred and eighty (180) days following said occurrence the Company files
written notice with the City and the Revenue Bond Trustee and directs that the
Chicago Refunding Revenue Bonds are to be redeemed:
12
(i) if, in the Company's reasonable judgment, unreasonable burdens or
excessive liabilities shall, have been imposed upon the City or the Company
with respect to the Project or the operation thereof, including, without
limitation, federal, state or other ad valorem property, income or other
taxes, other than ad valorem taxes presently levied upon privately owned
property used for the same general purposes as the Project; or
(ii) if changes in the economic availability of raw materials,
operating supplies, fuel or other energy sources or supplies, or facilities
necessary for the operation of the Project or such technological or other
changes shall have occurred which, in the Company's reasonable judgment,
render the Project uneconomic for such purposes; or
(iii) any court or administrative body shall enter an order or decree
preventing operations at the Project for six consecutive months; or
(iv) any court or administrative agency shall issue an order, decree
or regulation the compliance with which would, in the opinion of the
Company, render the continuation of the Project's operations economically
unfeasible.
(b) The bonds of Series FF are subject to optional redemption prior to
maturity by the Company, in whole or in part, on any date on or after June 1
2005, and at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal
amount) set forth below, plus accrued interest, if any, to the redemption date:
REDEMPTION DATES REDEMPTION PRICES
---------------- -----------------
June 1, 2005 through
May 31, 2006 102%
June 1, 2006 through
May 31, 2007 101%
June 1, 2007 and 100%
thereafter
(c) All of the outstanding bonds of Series FF may be redeemed at any time
by the Company, by the payment of the principal amount thereof and accrued
interest thereon to the date of redemption, without the payment of any premium,
in the event of the acquisition by any federal, state or municipal authority of
any substantial portion (which shall be not less than one-third as determined by
book values) of the income-producing properties of the Company which are subject
to the lien of the Mortgage.
(d) The bonds of Series FF are subject to mandatory redemption at any time,
in whole (or in part, as hereinafter provided), at 100% of the principal amount
thereof, plus accrued
13
interest, if any, to the redemption date, in the event that it is finally
determined by the Internal Revenue Service or by a court of competent
jurisdiction that, as a result of the failure by the Company to observe any
covenant, agreement or representation in the Agreement, the interest payable on
the Chicago Refunding Revenue Bonds is includable for federal income tax
purposes in the gross income of any owner thereof, other than an owner who is a
"substantial user" of the Project or a "related person", as provided in Section
147(a) of the Code, and the applicable regulations thereunder. For purposes of
this paragraph (d), the "owner" of a Chicago Refunding Revenue Bond includes the
"Beneficial Owner", as defined in the Refunding Revenue Bond Indenture. Any
such determination will not be considered final for this purpose unless the
Company has been given written notice and, if it so desires, has been afforded
the opportunity to contest the same, either directly or in the name of any owner
of a Chicago Refunding Revenue Bond, and until the conclusion of any appellate
review, if sought. The bonds of Series FF shall be redeemed in whole after such
determination unless redemption of a portion of the Chicago Refunding Revenue
Bonds outstanding would have the result that interest payable on the Chicago
Refunding Revenue Bonds remaining outstanding after such redemption would not be
includable for federal income tax purposes in the gross income of any owner of
the Chicago Refunding Revenue Bonds (other than an owner who is a "substantial
user" of the Project or a "related person" within the meaning of Section 147(a)
of the Code) and in such event the bonds of Series FF shall be redeemed (in the
principal amount of $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof) in such amount as
to accomplish that result. Any redemption pursuant to this subparagraph (d)
shall be on any date within one hundred and eighty (180) days from the time of
such final determination.
(e) All of the outstanding bonds of Series FF shall be redeemed by the
Company not more than sixty (60) days after the Trustee receives written notice
from the Revenue Bond Trustee stating that the principal on the Chicago
Refunding Revenue Bonds has been declared to be immediately due and payable as a
result of an event of default under the Refunding Revenue Bond Indenture. The
redemption price for any such redemption shall be 100% of the principal amount
of the bonds of Series FF to be redeemed, plus interest thereon accrued to the
date fixed for redemption.
SECTION 6. If bonds of Series FF are to be redeemed as provided in
Section 5 of this Article I, notice of redemption shall be mailed by or on
behalf of the Company, postage prepaid, at least thirty (30) days and not more
than sixty (60) days prior to such date of redemption, to the registered owners
of all bonds of Series FF to be so redeemed, at their respective addresses
appearing upon the registry book. Any notice which is mailed as herein provided
shall be conclusively presumed to have been properly and sufficiently given on
the date of such mailing, whether or not the holder receives the notice. In any
case, failure to give due notice by mail, or any defect in the notice, to the
registered owners of any bonds of Series FF designated for redemption as a whole
or in part, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption
of any other bond of Series FF. In case of any redemption of bonds of Series FF
by the Trustee pursuant to the provisions of the Mortgage or any indenture
supplemental thereto, notice of redemption shall be given in a similar manner by
the Trustee. Whenever payment or provision therefor has been made in respect of
the principal of or interest on all or any portion of the Chicago Refunding
Revenue Bonds in accordance with the
14
Refunding Revenue Bond Indenture (whether at maturity or upon redemption or
acceleration), the bonds of Series FF shall be deemed paid to the extent such
payment or provision therefor has been made and is considered to be a payment of
principal of or interest on the Chicago Refunding Revenue Bonds. If the Chicago
Refunding Revenue Bonds are thereby deemed paid in full, the bonds of Series FF
shall be cancelled and returned to the Company.
Except as provided above, the provisions of Article VI of the Mortgage
shall in all respects apply to any such redemption.
SECTION 7. Bonds of Series FF shall bear the following legend: "This Bond
may not be sold, transferred, pledged or hypothecated except as required to
effect assignment to the Revenue Bond Trustee and to any successor trustee."
SECTION 8. In any case where the date of maturity of interest on or
principal of the bonds of Series FF or the date fixed for redemption of any
bonds of Series FF shall be in the location of the principal office of the
Revenue Bond Trustee, a Saturday, Sunday or a legal holiday or a day on which
banking institutions are authorized by law to close in the State of Illinois,
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 as if made on the date of maturity or the date fixed for
redemption, and no interest shall accrue for the period after such date.

SECTION 4. Anything in Section 1 of this Article to the contrary
notwithstanding, with the consent of the holders of not less than sixty per
centum (60%) in aggregate principal amount of the bonds at the time
outstanding or their attorneys-in-fact duly authorized, or, if the rights
of the holders of one or more, but not all, series then outstanding are

provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall (1) extend the
maturity of any of the bonds or reduce the rate or extend the time of

or reduce any premium payable on the redemption thereof or change the coin

after such 60% or greater consent has been obtained, may require the holder
of any bond consenting to the execution of any such supplemental indenture
to submit his bond to the Trustee or to such bank, banker or trust company
as may be designated by the Trustee for the purpose, for the notation
thereon of the fact that the holder of such bond has consented to the
execution of such supplemental indenture, and in such case such notation,
in form satisfactory to the Trustee, shall be made upon all bonds so
submitted, and such bonds bearing such notation shall forthwith be returned

not be withdrawn.
Prior to the execution by the Company and the Trustee of any
supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4, the
Company shall publish a notice, setting forth in general terms the
substance of such supplemental indenture, at least once in one daily
newspaper of general circulation in each city in which the principal of any

Company to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in
any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

redemption or payment thereof by the deposit with the Trustee of money necessary
to effect such redemption or payment, as follows:
(a) The Company, during or at the close of the calendar year 1995, and

calendar year, charge against such "depreciation reserve account" the cost
of depreciable property retired by it during such year, including the cost,

applicable thereto.

during such period; and income in the form of interest received by the
Company upon evidences of indebtedness of any class owned by it shall be
considered as currently earned under the provisions of said clause (B) to

upon all indebtedness of such class, after deducting from such earnings all
interest charges accruing during such period upon obligations secured by

period, then and in every such case the net earnings (or net losses) of
such property (ascertained in like manner as above provided) during said
period, or during such part thereof as shall have preceded the acquisition
of such property by the Company, shall be considered and treated as net
earnings (or net losses) of the Company for such period, and shall be
included in (or, if a net loss, deducted in determining) such net earnings
of the Company;
(iii) "permanent property" shall mean any and all plants,
equipment, additions, improvements, betterments, facilities, or other
property of any kind (and includes "extensions" and "purchased
property" as those terms are used in the Mortgage) acquired through
construction, purchase, consolidation, exchange or otherwise, as and
for a part of the permanent or fixed investment for the business of
the Company and used or useful in connection with the generation and
conversion of electrical energy or in the manufacture of gas or steam
or in the distribution or transmission of electrical energy or gas or
steam in the territory in which the Company is now operating its
present properties, or in territory contiguous thereto, or in
territory capable of economic interconnection therewith, but

24
accounts or bills receivable, securities, supplies, fuel or other
assets ordinarily classed as quick assets, or leasehold estates;
(iv) "original cost" of property shall mean the original cost of
such property to the Company if ascertainable from its records or, if
such original cost is not ascertainable, the value of such property at
the time of its acquisition, such value to be determined by an
engineer or firm of engineers to be selected by the Company and to be
acceptable to the Trustee, and the Trustee under such circumstances
shall be furnished with a certificate of such value signed by such
engineer or firm of engineers.
(f) In connection with any request to the Trustee for the
authentication of bonds, pursuant to the provisions of Section 5 of Article
III of the Mortgage or the payment of cash pursuant to the provisions of
Section 6 of said Article III or the provisions of Article IX of the
Mortgage or the elimination or compensation of any excess of the nature
described in subdivision (2) of Section 4 of said Article III, for or on
account of expenditures for "permanent property", the Company shall furnish

required to be delivered by the provisions of the Mortgage and the
provisions of other subparagraphs of this Section 1, the following:
(i) An opinion of counsel (who may be counsel for the Company),
selected by the Company and satisfactory to the Trustee, stating that
the Company has acquired good title to the property for or on account
of the expenditures for which additional bonds are requested to be
authenticated and that such property is subject to the Mortgage as a
direct lien thereon, subject only to the lien of any mortgages or
easements existing or placed on any of such property at the time of
its acquisition, liens for taxes and assessments not due or, if due,
in the course of contest, judgments in the course of appeal or
otherwise in contest and secured by sufficient bond, liens arising out
of proceedings in court in the course of contest and undetermined
liens charges (if any) incidental to current construction; and
(ii) A certificate signed by the President or an Executive Vice
President or a Vice President and also by the Treasurer or an
Assistant Treasurer of the Company certifying that the property for or
on account of the expenditures for which bonds are requested to be
authenticated or cash is requested to be paid is "permanent property".
(g) The Company shall not hereafter issue any bonds under any
"underlying mortgage" as defined in Section 4 of Article III of the
Mortgage, or under any mortgage which could become such an "underlying
mortgage" upon compliance with clause (b) of the proviso of subdivision (2)
of said Section 4.
25
(h) The Company shall not request the Trustee to authenticate any
bonds under the provisions of Section 2 or Section 3 or Section 4 of
Article III of the Mortgage and shall not apply for the payment of cash
under Section 6 of said Article or under Article IX of the Mortgage (i) for
or on account of bonds of Series J deposited by the Company with the
Trustee in lieu of cash under the provisions of the sinking fund provided
for in the supplemental indenture, dated as of May 1, 1961, or for or on
account of bonds of Series J redeemed through the operation of said sinking
fund, or (ii) for or on account of bonds of Series K redeemed through the
operation of the sinking fund provided for in the supplemental indenture
dated as of July 15, 1966, or (iii) for or on account of bonds of Series L
redeemed through the operation of the sinking fund provided for in the
supplemental indenture dated as of August 15, 1967, or (iv) for or on
account of bonds of Series M redeemed through the operation of the sinking
fund provided for in the supplemental indenture dated as of September 15,
1970, or (v) for or on account of bonds of Series N redeemed through the
operation of the sinking fund provided for in the supplemental indenture
dated as of April 1, 1972, or (vi) for or on account of bonds of Series 0
redeemed through the operation of the sinking fund provided for in the
supplemental indenture dated as of July 15, 1973, or (vii) for or on
account of bonds of Series T redeemed through the operation of the sinking
fund provided for in the supplemental indenture dated as of August 15,
1980, or (viii) on account of any cancelled or uncancelled underlying bonds
(or any uncancelled underlying bonds deposited as collateral under Section
4 of Article III of the Mortgage) which shall have been deposited under the
provisions of the supplemental indenture, dated as of August 1, 1941, in
lieu of cash.
(i) In the event of the acquisition at any time by any federal, state
or municipal authority of all or substantially all of the income-producing
properties of the Company which are subject to the lien of the Mortgage,
the Company shall be deemed to have elected to redeem and to have requested
the Trustee to redeem all the bonds of all series at the respective
applicable redemption price or prices (together with accrued interest to
the date of redemption), without the payment of any premium, on a date
determined by the Trustee in its discretion to be the earliest practicable
redemption date after receipt by the Trustee of all cash which the Trustee
is entitled to receive in respect of such acquisition by such federal,
state or municipal authority. If the cash so received by the Trustee and
all other cash then held by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust
for the benefit of the holders of particular bonds and coupons, is not
sufficient to effect the redemption of all the bonds of all series as
aforesaid and to pay all amounts owing to the Trustee under the Mortgage as
supplemented (including fees and expenses to be incurred by the Trustee in
connection with such redemption), the Company covenants and agrees that,
within five (5) days after receipt by the Trustee of all cash which the
Trustee is entitled to receive as aforesaid in respect of such acquisition,
the Company will deposit with the Trustee for that purpose cash in an
amount sufficient to make up such deficiency.
Upon receipt by the Trustee of moneys sufficient for said purposes, notice
of such redemption shall be given by the Trustee for and on behalf and in
the name of the
26
Company. To the extent that such cash received, held and deposited as
aforesaid shall be required for the purpose of redeeming bonds pursuant to
this subparagraph (i), the Company shall be deemed to have directed the
Trustee to apply the same for the purpose, and the balance, if any, after
payment of all said amounts owing to the Trustee, shall be paid to or upon
the order of the Company.
(j) The Company shall promptly classify as "property replaced or
retired", for the purposes of clause (B) of subdivision (i) of subparagraph
(c) of this Section 1 during any period, all property which has been
replaced or has permanently ceased to be used or useful in the business of
the Company, but the Company shall not, in making such classification, be
bound by determinations, rulings or orders made by regulatory authorities
for rate-making or other purposes.
(k) The Company shall not consolidate with or merge into any other
corporation or transfer or lease all or substantially all the mortgaged
property as an entirety to any other corporation, unless the corporation
resulting from such consolidation or the corporation into which the Company
shall have been merged or the corporation to which such transfer or lease
shall have been made shall, by an instrument executed and delivered to the
Trustee, assume the due and punctual payment of the principal of and
premium, if any, and interest on all the bonds of all series according to
their tenor at the time outstanding under the Mortgage and the due and
punctual performance and observance of all the covenants and conditions of
the Mortgage and all indentures supplemental thereto to be performed or
observed by the Company.
SECTION 2. The Company covenants and agrees that any and all property
hereafter acquired by the Company and any and all improvements, extensions,
betterments or additions to property of the Company which by the Original
Mortgage or any indenture supplemental thereto are to become subject to the
Mortgage, immediately upon the acquisition thereof by the Company or upon such
improvements, extension, betterments, or addition being made, as the case may
be, and without any further conveyance, mortgage, assignment or act on the part
of the Company or the Trustee, or either of them, shall become and be subject to
the lien of the Mortgage fully and completely as though owned by the Company at
the date of the execution of the Original Mortgage and at the date of the
Indenture dated the first day of March, 1928, mentioned in the second paragraph
of the recitals of this Supplemental Indenture and at the dates of the
supplemental indentures dated May 20, 1936, May 10, 1950, as of June 1, 1951, as
of August 15, 1967, as of September 15, 1970, as of June 1, 1984, as of June 1,
1984, as of October 1, 1984, as of March 1, 1985, as of March 1, 1985, as of
March 1, 1985, as of March 1, 1985, as of May 1, 1990, as of April 1, 1993, as
of December 1, 1993 and as of December 1, 1993, respectively, mentioned in the
fourth paragraph of the recitals of this Supplemental Indenture, and at the date
of this Supplemental Indenture, and specifically described in the granting
clauses of the Original Mortgage or said Indenture or said supplemental
indentures, but the provisions of this Section 2 shall not limit the generality
of the provisions of Sections 12 and 13 of Article IV of the Original Mortgage.
27
SECTION 3. The Company covenants and agrees that in the furtherance of, but
without limiting the generality of, the provisions of Sections 12 and 13 of
Article IV of the Mortgage or of Section 2 of this Article II, the Company will
furnish to the Trustee on November 1, 1944, and thereafter within sixty (60)
days after and as often as the Company shall have acquired, subsequent to
September 3, 1944, any additional land or lands or interest or interests in
land, or any new plant or plants, not included in any certificate theretofore
furnished pursuant to this Section 3, the aggregate cost of which shall equal or
exceed $500,000, and at such other times as thirty-six (36) months shall have
elapsed since the date of furnishing the last preceding certificate to the
Trustee pursuant to this Section 3, the following:
(a) a certificate, signed by the President or an Executive Vice
President or a Vice President and by the Treasurer or an Assistant
Treasurer of the Company and dated as of a date not more than sixty (60)
days preceding the date as of which such certificate is required to be
filed pursuant to this Section 3, briefly describing any additional land or
interest in land and any new plant which the Company may have acquired
since the date of the most recent Certificate furnished to the Trustee
pursuant to this Section, or, in the case of the first such certificate,
since the date of the execution and delivery of the Indenture dated the
first day of March, 1928 mentioned in the second paragraph of the recitals
of this Supplemental Indenture, which is required by the provisions of the
Mortgage and this Supplemental Indenture to be subjected to the lien of the
Mortgage;
(b) the mortgages, deeds, covenants, assignments, transfers and
instruments of further assurance, if any, specified in the opinion of
counsel referred to in the following subparagraph (c); and
(c) an opinion of counsel, who may be counsel for the Company,
specifying the mortgages, deeds, covenants, assignments, transfers and
instruments of further assurance which will be sufficient to subject to the
direct lien of the Mortgage (so far as permitted by law) all the Company's
right, title and interest in and to the land and interest in land and any
plant described in said certificate, or stating that no such mortgage,
deed, conveyance, assignment, transfer or instrument of further assurance
is necessary for such purpose, and that, upon the recordation or filing or
registering, in the manner stated in such opinion, of the instruments so
specified, if any, and upon the recordation and filing and registering of
the Mortgage or any supplemental indenture in the manner stated in such
opinion, or without any such recordation or filing or registering if such
opinion shall so state, the Mortgage will (so far as permitted by law)
constitute a valid lien upon all the Company's right, title and interest in
and to such land, interest in land or plant as against all creditors and
subsequent purchasers, subject only to the lien of any mortgages or
easements existing or placed on such property at the time of its
acquisition by the Company, liens for taxes and assessments not due, or, if
due, in the course of appeal or otherwise in contest, liens arising out of
proceedings in court in the course of contest and undetermined liens and
charges (if any) incidental to current construction.

delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3 of Article III of Division B of
the supplemental indenture dated as of June 1, 1951, or pursuant to Section 3 of
Article II of the supplemental indenture dated as of July 1, 1954, or pursuant

1961, or pursuant to Section 3 of Article III of the supplemental indenture
