The Bonds will be issued in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

Principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds will be payable at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for such purpose except that, at the option of the Issuer, the payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Bondholders at their respective addresses set forth in the Bond Register. Until otherwise designated by the Issuer, the Issuer’s office or agency will be the office of the Trustee maintained for such purpose.

SECTION 4. Indenture. The Issuer issued the Bonds under the Indenture. The terms of the Bonds include those stated in the Indenture for a complete description of the terms of the Bonds.

SECTION 5. Optional Redemption. At any time, the Issuer will be entitled at its option to redeem all or any portion of the Bonds at the redemption price set forth in Section 3.03(c) of the Indenture, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the Redemption Date (subject to the right of each Bondholder on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date).
